Chapter 172 National Day



In the next few days, everyone was still very idle except for one trip.

The only difference is that the supply and marketing cooperatives are preparing for National Day again.

As a result, it was not planned. Although everyone was interested, they did not have the energy.

In the end, there was no other way, so we decided to let everyone sing a red song together on National Day, and then we could have a holiday.

Li Xu, who got the news, was also surprised and asked Liu Gang, "Uncle Liu, you actually gave us a holiday this year? Is that true?"

You know, although there are two days of National Day holidays at this time, like most holidays, everyone still needs to go to work. It is indeed surprising to suddenly receive this news.

"It's not surprising. Look at what everyone has become this year. I guess it's not just us who need a break, but other units as well."

Not only did he guess this, but this was also the first reason that others thought of after hearing the news.

After hearing everyone's discussion, Li Xu said happily, "Doesn't that mean we can have a holiday this New Year's Day?"

"There should be. We used to have Sundays off, but later on no one took any breaks. At least we still had food to eat. Now everyone is starving, so we have to let everyone rest for a while." Liu Gang nodded, then looked at Li Xu.

"Besides, why are you so excited? Isn't every day like a holiday these days? You have nothing to do for more than 20 days a month, and you're not satisfied?"

Li Xu chuckled, "Satisfied, but I think there's a difference between being at home on vacation and having nothing to do in the car team."

“I don’t think there’s any difference.”

"How about you come to work during those two days?"

Liu Gang said angrily, "It's vacation time, why should I go to work?"

"You see, there is a difference, otherwise you would definitely choose to come here to work."

Liu Gang was silenced by him. After a long pause, he said, "You don't understand. I'm doing this for the sake of unity. What would others think if I insisted on coming to work? They definitely have to come too. Otherwise, it means they're not proactive and have problems. For their sake, I can't come either."

After saying that, he added, "Really, if I wasn't afraid of creating resentment among us, I would definitely come."

Hearing this, Li Xu looked over in astonishment. "Uncle Liu, you always say I can fool people, but now I think you are too modest. How can I compare to you?"

Apart from anything else, his idea of ​​breaking the deadlock is something that most people cannot think of.

But it is extremely effective. There is no way around it. What he said is indeed in line with the characteristics of the current era.

The only problem is that a lot of people might hate him...

Liu Gang waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense and go to the car to bask in the sun."

Then the two of them got into the car and basked in the sun.

After returning home in the evening, Li Xu asked Sun Xiu, "Mom, are you having National Day holiday?"

"It's a holiday, but I have to go there that morning too, what about you guys?"

"It's vacation time, so just go and sing some revolutionary songs."

Compared to Li Xu, Li Jiakang and others were very happy about this holiday.

They are not so idle at ordinary times, and they are really busy all year round.

National Day is coming soon.

Li Xu got up early in the morning and signed in to sell a few pounds of fat.

That wasn't a big deal. What confused him the most was that there were two fireworks behind it...

Li Xu was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Now even if he signed in for fireworks, he wouldn't dare to set them off.

This is too much noise. If it were an ordinary thing, it would have been solved. But this time, it seems I have to keep it and wait for the right time to release it.

In fact, such an outrageous thing happened once this year. It was during the Qingming Festival when he signed in and gave out two bottles of wine and some paper money. Although Li Xu was a little confused at the time, he thought that he didn't spend any money on it anyway.

So he took it out and quietly burned the paper money for his ancestors with his family.

It really does not waste anything.

After figuring it out, Li Xu took the meat out and everyone had a good meal in the evening.

Moreover, Hu Guilan and her colleagues are now quite experienced in handling this matter, and can basically ensure that people outside the kitchen cannot smell the meat.

So when I see this thing, I am just happy and don’t worry about what to do.

After breakfast, Li Xu came to the motorcade and sang a red song with everyone, and then everyone went home.

After arriving home, he lay down on the recliner again. Soon, Sun Xiu and others came back.

Sun Xiu stepped forward and quietly asked Li Xu, "Why don't you send some of this meat to Xiaohong's family?"

"I'll send it to them later. Just give them one pound."

"Okay, I'll cut the meat and put it in the kitchen. You can take it yourself later." After saying that, Sun Xiu went into the kitchen, and came out after a while to start sewing clothes.

She and Hu Guilan also chatted while working.

Li Xu and others on the side also said a few words from time to time.

After Li Xu chatted with a few people for a while, he put the meat in a cloth bag and walked towards Du Hong's house.

After entering the door, I saw Du Qing and his family sitting in the yard.

There was no other way. Since they had already met, Li Xu had to go up and say hello, "Hello, Sister Qing, hello, brother-in-law."

Mu Shan simply responded and said nothing more.

Du Qing responded and looked at the cloth bag in Li Xu's hand. Just as he was about to ask, he was interrupted by Yang Li, "Xiao Xu is here, come in quickly, we can talk inside. Xiao Feng, you guys stay and talk to your elder sister and the others."

After saying that, he pulled Li Xu into the main room.

Before entering the house, Li Xu saw Du Qing stand up and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Du Feng and the others. Then he heard Du Ming's voice, "Just sit still. Why are you following them when they are talking?"

After Yang Li entered the room and saw that there was no one following her, she whispered, "Xiao Xu, what are you bringing?"

"Well, I got some meat, and I thought I'd send you some."

Hearing that it was meat, Yang Li swallowed her saliva, but said, "We appreciate the kindness, but let's forget about the food."

Li Xu thought about it and asked, "Is it because of Sister Qing and her family?"

Yang Li instantly revealed a helpless expression. "Ever since they had the egg cake at my house on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, they must have tasted the sweetness and have been coming to my house all the time. We must not let them know about this."

Hearing this, Li Xu had no choice but to ask, "How about waiting until they leave before eating?"

Yang Li waved her hand. "Forget it. Safety is the most important thing. It doesn't matter if you eat more or less of this."

"How about letting Brother Feng and the others eat at my house?"

He knew that it was impossible for Yang Li and her husband to go, but Du Feng and his friends could go.

"Goodbye. Xiaoqing and the others will definitely be suspicious if they find out. Listen to me, take it back. I'll explain to Xiaohong and the others later."

Things had come to this point, so Li Xu had no choice but to take his things and go back.
