After everyone finished eating the pork stew, they went to the brigade headquarters to line up and receive their money and New Year's goods.
"good!"
"Clap clap clap clap clap clap..."
This time, the cheers were even louder, and everyone was incredibly excited.
I never expected to receive so much money this year.
Now, almost every family in the brigade has someone receiving a salary, which adds up to at least seven or eight hundred a year, much better than many city dwellers.
They thought this was good enough, but they never expected to get so much money, 1,000 yuan.
"Wow, life is getting better and better."
"Thanks to A Yuan, Xiao Jun, and other brigade leaders for helping us make money."
"Thank you, Goddess of Fertility, for giving me a good birth and allowing me to be born into the Changhe Brigade."
...
There were all sorts of expressions of gratitude in the crowd: thanking this person, thanking that god, thanking parents, thanking great-grandmother, and even thanking ancestors for eighteen generations.
Ji Xinmin gripped the strap of her military green satchel tightly, thinking about how she had worked for almost half a year and only received a little over 300 yuan in total salary.
I initially thought it was a lot, but now that I look at it, the difference seems quite large.
Lu Xiaojun finally finished speaking. It was Jia Liqin's turn to say a few words as the accountant, but she had only recently taken over the job and her child was crying, so she gave up.
Su Yun stepped forward and told him about it. Lu Xiaojun nodded and then announced that dinner was served.
The two talked about work and then went over to Lu Yuan and Wen Moxue's group, chatting and laughing.
When Ji Xinmin saw this scene, her heart skipped a beat. Who was that beautiful girl next to him?
His sister? She looks about the same age as him, so it probably isn't her.
Who could it be?
"Comrade Ji, Xiao Jun and the others are over there, let's go over there."
After arranging seats for the Gao and Xiao families, Xiao Fan came over and called her over.
"Ah? Okay!"
Ji Xinmin followed behind him, but her eyes were always on Lu Xiaojun's direction.
Seeing that the pretty girl from before hadn't sat next to Lu Xiaojun, but instead went to sit next to another man, and that their interaction clearly indicated they were a couple, her anxious heart finally relaxed.
However, he was still nervous. After not seeing him for several months, he had become more composed, dignified, and radiant.
As she got closer, she twisted the strap of the military green satchel out of shape.
"Brother Yuan, sister-in-law, Aheng, Xiaojun..."
Xiao Fan greeted everyone, a rare smile appearing on his usually stern face.
"Wow, Fan-ge, you're dating someone? That's amazing, you gave us such a big surprise without telling us."
Yu Shaoheng saw Ji Xinmin behind him and said with a smile.
Lu Yuan, Wen Moxue, and the others shared the same thought, assuming that the girl behind them was Xiao Fan's girlfriend.
"Tsk, so the iron tree has finally blossomed. You managed to keep it a secret for so long."
Lu Xiaojun smiled and turned around, but when he saw the figure behind him, his smile froze and he suddenly stood up.
He blurted out, "Xinmin?"
