Chapter 13 Work, Arrangement
It was already around five or six in the afternoon when I came out of the hospital, and there were obviously a lot more pedestrians on the street.
There was a clerk with short hair and Lenin suit, looking anxious;
There were students with pigtails and wearing striped, plaid or floral shirts chatting and laughing;
Workers in dark blue work uniforms went to the state-owned restaurant in groups of three or five to have a bite to eat...
Walking on the street, Suning looked at the people of all kinds around him and felt a rare sense of relaxation. For some reason, his tense nerves were relieved a lot.
"I'm selling popsicles. Red bean, mung bean, and milk flavored popsicles!"
"Ring, ring, ring~"
The young man riding the 82-inch bicycle had a foam box tied to the back seat, which was tightly wrapped.
Mingling with a group of laughing and playing children, Suning bought a mung bean ice cream and ate it with relish while walking.
"Little comrade!"
He was carrying a backpack with a scarf covering most of his face. He was wearing a grey top and dark green side-drawn pants. His eyes, which were exposed, looked around from time to time, and he looked very nervous.
Su Ning understood immediately and followed her to the entrance of an alley where there were few people.
"Eggs or roe deer meat, comrade?"
"How do I change it?"
"Eggs are 1 cent each, roe deer meat is 1.2 yuan per pound, no tickets required."
The two of them made the deal quickly without any extra words, and then strode away in opposite directions.
When she returned to the main street, she had a yellow feed bag in her hand.
When you feel sleepy, you just hit the pillow. Isn't this a better reason to bring something good to the old man?
With a look of joy on his face, he quickened his pace, thinking that it would be better to add something in the space when he was almost there.
…
No. 68 Qinghe Lane.
“Phew~ We’re finally here!”
Even though she only carried it a short distance, she couldn't help but add more and more feed. In the end, the entire feed bag was stuffed full. You can imagine how heavy it was.
Suning immediately put down the bag in his hand and knocked on the door with disordered breathing.
“Knock knock knock…”
"Come here, who is it?"
"Grandpa Fu, it's me~"
When he opened the door, he saw a pretty person standing there with a quirky smile on her face. As always, Fu Chenggong found it difficult to maintain his serious image in front of his children and grandchildren, and his old face was full of wrinkles with laughter.
"Come in quickly. I was wondering why no one has arrived yet. Did you stand me up again, you little bitch?"
"How could I stand you up? You shouldn't wrong me like this!"
When Fu Chenggong moved aside to let someone in, he realized that she was holding a bag with red hands. "What the hell are you doing? Give it to me!"
“No need, Grandpa Fu, this thing is too heavy, I can do it.”
But he didn't dare to let him carry it, so Suning used all his strength to stride into the yard carrying the thing.
There are two pomegranate trees planted in the yard, and their bright red flowers are in full bloom.
On the stone table under the tree there was an enamel cup with the words "Labor is the most glorious" printed on it and a palm-leaf fan. I guess the old man was sitting here drinking tea and enjoying the cool air just now.
The green onions and leeks planted in the two rows at the corner of the wall are growing well, and the green color looks very pleasing to the eye.
"Just leave it here. If you don't think it's heavy, put it down quickly."
"Hey~"
Fu Chenggong frowned and tapped her head with his dry, skinny hand, "Have you forgotten what I told you?"
This girl is really better than her teacher. She is determined to make the old man Su Ting's set of red tape even better.
To put it bluntly, from the bottom of his heart he never treated them as outsiders. Old man Su Ting was his half-brother.
What's wrong with coming to your own house empty-handed? You have to use etiquette to make a good girl follow suit.
Laoxiao, Laoxiao, isn’t that just an old child?
Seeing his angry face, Su Ning smiled with dimples showing, and coaxed him skillfully.
"Oh, of course I remember, but who told me that when I see something good I want Grandpa Fu to have a taste of it!"
"Hahahaha, fine, fine, you little girl actually have some crooked ideas!"
As expected, Fu Chenggong forgot his anger after hearing these words. He immediately squatted down and said, "Come, let me see what good stuff it is that my girl took so much trouble to bring here."
"Oh, is this roe deer meat? It's been a long time since I've eaten game."
In addition to half a roe deer, there were also twenty or thirty eggs, a chicken and a duck in the feed bag.
But these chickens and ducks... look like they were slaughtered not long ago, and the blood is still fresh.
"Girl, did you go to the black market?"
"No, no, I just happened to see it on my way here."
"That's better!"
There are many speculators everywhere. Fu Chenggong knew that she did not sneak to the black market alone, so he handled the money with care.
"That's great. When your Aunt Hehua comes over later, use this chicken to make you some medicinal food to nourish yourself."
"Don't mention that I haven't eaten it for a long time. I'm really craving Aunt Lotus's cooking."
With his eyes narrowed and a kind smile on his face, Fu Chenggong stood up and led people to the study, "That's easy. If you want to eat you, come to my house more often."
Then I thought that the girl could not stay in Beijing for a few days, and it would take two or three days to go to southern Hunan.
He is an old guy, how many times can he afford to go through so much trouble and meet so many people?
After following him into the house, Su Ning sensitively noticed the old man's sudden sadness and loss. He seemed to remember something and instantly knew the reason.
But she couldn't explain what would happen in the future and could only sigh silently in her heart. Could she still say to him: We, the grandfather and the granddaughter, can meet again in southern Hunan and spend many more years together?
“I’m really old~”
People also become sentimental, dislike separation but fear death.
Fu Chenggong made a self-deprecating remark, shook his head, opened the drawer on the table, and handed her three envelopes.
Two of them were deflated as if they were filled with a few pieces of paper, and the remaining one was bulging, and no one knew what was stuffed into it.
"The job has been arranged. It just so happened that Mr. Zhang's son was transferred to southern Hunan for work, and he got these two job quotas.
Look at where you want to go, and keep the remaining indicator for later use.”
Afraid that she didn't understand these things yet, Fu Chenggong patiently explained to her in detail how to get along with leaders and how to work together with colleagues.
I was also afraid that she would be wronged and bullied in a place where I couldn't see her, and I had to endure it silently...
Just thinking about it made his heart ache. Fu Chenggong's humble and generous words immediately changed, "Of course, we don't cause trouble, but that doesn't mean we are afraid of trouble. If someone deliberately picks a fight with you, then,
She patted the second envelope hard. The loud bangs were like hammering the imaginary person who bullied her. Fu Chenggong's face was filled with grim murderous intent.
"Look for Grandpa's old buddies. If one doesn't work, two will do. If two still don't work, they can just go and lie on the board! Call Grandpa Fu, and I'll kill them!"
"Um!"
With a thick nasal tone, Su Ning tried to smile and blinked away the mist hanging on his eyelashes, "Okay, with Grandpa Fu here, I'm not afraid of anyone."
"That's right!"
I've been busy with personal matters these past two days, and will start updating normally tomorrow. Thank you, and please vote for me, my little cuties who have passed by~
