Chapter 729 When Will the Wheat Ripen?
After spending the whole morning getting familiar with the Guoying Society, Teacher Tan asked Lu Miao about his future plans after coming back from lunch in the afternoon.
"I'm graduating in a year, and I'll probably be pretty busy with schoolwork next year. Plus, I need to keep an eye on my English classes at Renmin University, hmm..."
Lu Miao thought for a while and continued:
"I plan to focus on school after the summer vacation. After graduation, if there is a vacancy here at the National English Society, I will come over."
Teacher Tan nodded and asked with a teasing smile:
"Having brought you up to the third floor, how could there not be a place for you?"
Lu Miao chuckled dryly and said nothing.
To be honest, she actually hadn't decided whether she would come to the ICP in the future, and how long she could stay there if she came.
She is a very spontaneous person by nature.
It’s okay to do it once or twice in serious occasions.
If it happens too many times, I'm afraid I'll lose my patience.
These words were difficult to say, so Lu Miao didn't mention them for the time being.
After all, Teacher Tan is a teacher at Peking University, and she knows everything about the students' situation as they approach graduation.
After knowing Lu Miao's plan, he didn't say anything more and asked Lu Miao to come over when he had time.
She told Lu Miao to seize the learning opportunities in the last few semesters.
Daily performance and graduation results are linked to future job assignments.
Lu Miao has already had an outstanding performance in the Chinese-English Publishing House. If his performance meets the requirements, he will definitely get the position of deputy director at the middle level.
Lu Miao roughly understood it, so he nodded and wrote it down carefully.
The subsequent work was similar to what she did on the second floor, except that the content of some manuscripts was more official.
Some are more inclined to the category of "fine drafts".
Most of them are press releases.
Some are translated from foreign languages into Chinese, while others are translated from Chinese into foreign languages to convey messages to the outside world.
Lu Miao treated it with a normal attitude, but occasionally he also needed to concentrate a little more.
But overall it was not difficult and she could still handle it easily.
After finishing work at the IHS in the afternoon, before going home, Lu Miao talked to Teacher Tan about taking a day off the next day.
Teacher Tan nodded, and she went downstairs with her bag.
I went downstairs on time today, it was still very early.
Fu Jingyou probably just got off work, so Lu Miao didn't wait for him to pick him up and took the bus home.
She got out of the car and turned into the alley, just in time to see Fu Jingyou parking his bicycle at the door. It was obvious that he had just arrived home.
He pressed the water, and Lu Miao washed his hands and asked him curiously:
"You're late from get off work today?"
"No."
Fu Jingyou shook his head and said, "Let's go inside and talk later."
"good."
Several little ones followed around my knees, their hair longer than their mother's and shorter than their father's. It took a while before they were all tricked into going outside to play.
Fu Jingyou moved the fan that Lu Miao had turned on to the side a little to avoid blowing directly on her head, and then took out a palm-leaf fan and gently fanned her:
"On my way back, I ran into Heipi Laosi. He told me that Chen Xiangdong asked if he could supply more goods in the next few days. I was thinking of going to Guangzhou again."
Lu Miao had just hung the handbag at the door when he heard what he said. He turned around and looked at him with a little surprise:
"Didn't he just go there not long ago? Why did he sell his things so quickly?"
Lu Miao seldom asked about the goods, but she knew that most of the goods in the small room rented in the Ma family compound were given to Chen Xiangdong.
Including the part that Chen Xiangdong ordered with his own money, the total cost of those goods was at least fifteen hundred yuan.
A pound of eggs costs only 60 cents. If you compare it, how much would that cost for 1,500 yuan?
How could he act so quickly?
As if seeing her doubt, Fu Jingyou nodded and explained:
"He not only has channels in Beijing and northern China to ship goods, but also in Tianjin, so he can ship goods quickly..."
After a pause, he continued:
"I'm busy with school, and I won't have time to spare once I graduate and start working."
"Since it's summer vacation, I can take some time off for my internship at the electromechanical factory and make a couple more trips when I have time... Now's a good time to save some money."
Lu Miao frowned and asked him, "When do you plan to go?"
"If there's nothing else to do at home, I plan to buy a ticket this afternoon. It would be best if I could leave today, but if not, tomorrow."
Lu Miao pursed her lips, puffed up her face and sat on the edge of the kang with her back to him:
"I've been so busy lately that I've barely been seen. I finally got a couple of days off, and you said you wanted to take the kids out and play, and go shopping at Wangfujing Department Store! Now, you've already arranged everything before I even asked."
"It's definitely you and the child. When are you going to rest? I'll wait until I'm done with you before I go, okay?"
He reached out to support her shoulders, but she snorted and broke free.
"oops."
Fu Jingyou's peach blossom eyes curved into a smile, and he coaxed her patiently:
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are both holidays, right? Then it's a deal. We'll take the kids to the amusement park tomorrow and to Wangfujing the day after tomorrow. I'll drive and you'll give us directions, okay? Hmm? It's almost done, don't be angry, ok?"
Fu Jingyou tickled her waist, and she couldn't help laughing. Then she felt weird trying to put on a straight face.
He simply punched him lightly on the shoulder a few times and said in a feigned fierce tone:
"I'm an adult now, I don't need you to be with me all the time, but the child can't do that. The child needs mom and dad."
"good."
Fu Jingyou responded deeply, hugged her in his arms and said with a smile:
"I'll do as you say."
There is a saying that is often circulated on the Internet in later generations:
I can’t hold you if I hold a brick.
If you put down the bricks, I won’t be able to support you.
Fortunately, Fu Jingyou has some ability to study hard.
Although he was determined to make money to improve his family's conditions, he still had some spare money, allowing him to take a break and focus on his family.
Lu Miao smiled comfortably and let him hold her without moving.
She needs him too.
But she was stubborn and wouldn't say anything.
The couple in the room hadn't been together for long when Tang Mei's voice rang out outside:
"Xiao Fu, while it's still early, why don't you harvest the potatoes you planted last season in the yard? They'll be ready for planting vegetables next season."
"Okay, I'll be there in a moment."
Fu Jingyou let go of Lu Miao, and glared at her with his deep peach blossom eyes:
"So I'm going to harvest potatoes?"
Lu Miao nodded.
He went to the yard to pull potato vines, and Lu Miao also got up and went out.
Lu Miao casually grabbed a wooden basin from the kitchen for washing vegetables, patted the basin, and called out to the children:
"Okay, stop playing around and help Dad with his work."
Tang Mei was reluctant to let the children suffer, so she disagreed:
"They're barely above knee height. What can they do? It's all muddy and dirt. They'll get all over the place and get bitten by bugs."
"The important thing is participation, how can we really expect them to do the work?"
Lu Miao didn't care.
He gave the wooden basin to Shi An and instructed Shi An to lead Dabao and Erbao to pick potatoes at the back.
Then he turned around and said:
"Besides, you can't just indulge me. If you don't allow me to do this or that, you'll end up like me. I went to the countryside and didn't even know when the wheat would be ripe. People would just laugh at me, but they would also look down on me."
