After returning to the office, Luo Qiao called Lu Yichen directly and asked him to see if there was anyone who could take over the job. An hour later, two Changhe mini cars arrived.

Twelve security guards in uniform came down from above and soon took over the management of the front and back doors of the factory, responsible for the factory's security and anti-theft work.

The factory's existing security personnel were initially assigned to other jobs.

Luo Qiao left the garment factory only after seeing that everything had been arranged.

After a few more busy days, Lu Yiting's dowry was gradually transported back to the compound, including a refrigerator, a washing machine, a TV, a standing electric fan, a 26-inch women's bicycle, and a set of sofas.

Two jacquard blankets, two pink peony sheets, two pairs of pillowcases, two enamel basins, two sets of wedding toiletries, two thermoses, and two latest suitcases.

Six quilts, two mattresses, eight sets of clothes, six pairs of shoes, and some small things.

This dowry caused a sensation in the compound. After get off work every day, people would come to see the dowry, making the young girls envious. Many aunts and grandmas in the compound also regretted not arranging marriages for their sons earlier because they were jealous of the dowry.

Originally Luo Qiao was going to pay the lion's share of the dowry, but Lu Xinyi, Lu Yixuan and Wang Xiaoxin disagreed, so they got the news and asked their own master Gu to come over and say he would also pay a share, so they divided the dowry into four equal parts.

Aunt Gu Qianru did not get involved with them and directly gave them 300 yuan as a deposit.

Luo Qiao asked Master Lu, who had cleaned her house before, to help clean up her sister-in-law's house. The most important thing was to put broken glass on the courtyard wall just in case.

Fortunately, the police station is not far from this house, so safety is guaranteed.

During this period, the matter at the police station was settled. Wu Xiaomin was sentenced to two years in prison and her husband was sentenced to one year. Wu Xiaomin's mother got the news and came over, forcing her son-in-law Lu Ningzhou to come out and rescue them.

Lu Ningzhou was so annoyed that he became angry and threatened that if the old lady continued to make trouble, he would go to the army to find his brother-in-law to deal with it. This made the old lady leave unwillingly.

Maybe my brother-in-law called home, and since then my mother-in-law has never come to visit them.

Lu Ningzhou's wife Wu Xiaofang did not blame her husband for this matter. She only said that it was her elder sister's own fault and it did not affect their relationship. However, she would help the two nephews who lived alone from time to time.

Luo Qiao returned to the second courtyard early after the 15th day of the first lunar month at Gu's house so that Yanyan, Yueyue, Aunt Rong and Uncle Rong could get used to it.

After school started, Luo Qiao also became busy. Her master's thesis had been delivered to the defense committee members before the New Year, and the Graduate School arranged a thesis defense at the beginning of the school year. The venue was packed that day.

The defense was very exciting, highly professional, and extremely rigorous, which made the defense committee members nod their heads frequently. The thesis defense ended perfectly.

Just after she walked out of the defense site, she was called to the principal's office. The school had a big project and asked her if she would like to join. This time, the team would be led by Professor Guo.

Luo Qiao did not agree directly, she said she needed to think about it. The principal could understand, after all, she had the capital to be proud. If it were someone else, they would have agreed long ago, but Luo Qiao wanted to meet Professor Guo and get to know him better before making a decision.

After coming out from Professor Guo, Luo Qiao saw that it was still early today, so she went back to see her master and his wife, but her master was not there because he had something to do.

Feng Shumin saw Luo Qiao coming back: "Qiaoqiao, why do you seem absent-minded?"

Luo Qiao said: "I have defended my thesis and will start my doctoral studies this semester. The school wants me to join a project, but the project requires results to be produced by the end of this year, which is a difficult task.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Professor Chang said that we only have one day off a month. Yanyan and Yueyue are still young. If I can only go home once in a while, they won’t recognize me anymore.”
