Chapter 102
Not only did he walk around, he also made the two female comrades laugh.
"Public Security Kong is here. Come, sit down. Your Lu Qin has been here for a while."
Qin Minghai had already made tea and invited him to sit down.
Kong Yue nodded and handed him the item in his hand. "Uncle, I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
The two chatted for a while, and Qin Minghai accepted the gift he gave him. Lu Qin heard the noise and came over, only to find that his brother-in-law did not come empty-handed.
After taking a look, he went back to the kitchen. Sun Juan looked at his hardworking little figure, thinking about something.
Soon, lunch was ready.
The round table was filled with people. Qin Mingzhi came out of the room after changing his clothes. "Hey, Lu Qin, you've grown taller and stronger."
Lu Qin: Is this rare?
Why did he sound surprised?
Sun Juan patted him and said, "Hurry up and sit down. It's time to eat."
Qin Mingzhi coughed and sat down next to Kong Yue.
All the dishes at home were bought with Qin Minghai's bonus, including chicken and fish.
Lu Qin hadn't even started eating when he opened his mouth and said, "Auntie, you are such a good cook."
He was telling the truth, because Sun Juan was willing to use oil when cooking, and the dishes smelled delicious.
Sun Juan thought that her own daughters were not as sweet-talking as him. She was so happy that a layer of wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes. "Then eat more. You're welcome."
As she said that, she stood up, took a spoon, and put several pieces of meat into his bowl.
Qin Shi picked up the bowl and ate a mouthful of rice silently.
Qin Mingzhi nudged Kong Yue with his elbow and said, "This kid hasn't changed much."
He hadn't seen Lu Qin for a long time. Before, the boy went to the police station four days a week. He looked much more mature now, but when he spoke, his words were still very focused.
Kong Yue, "Yeah."
There are some changes. I rarely get angry with him now.
Sun Juan sat down and glanced at the young people's faces. "Eat more."
"By the way, Kong Gongan, you are about the same age as Mingzhi. I remember your wife is a teacher. Does she know any outstanding female comrades?" Maybe older women like to care about these things.
They were the same age, one was married and had a four-year-old child, but Qin Mingzhi was still single. She worried about him year after year, but nothing came of it.
Lu Qin pricked up his ears.
Kong Yue paid attention to his friend's reaction and said, "Aunt, if there is any, I will ask her to help keep an eye on it."
Sun Juan agreed, "That's fine. Look at Lu Qin's age now, he can consider it early. He has many options, so he won't regret it later."
Unexpectedly, the attack came back to him. Lu Qin swallowed and said, "Aunt, you are right."
He added, to avoid further discussion of him, "My brother-in-law and Qin Gongan seem to be the same age."
Qin Public Security: "..."
Kong Yue glanced at him. He might not be responsible for what he said.
As Sun Juan spoke, she thought of her daughter again. She looked over and saw Qin Shi calmly eating her meal. She didn't mention the girl's shyness.
Next to Qin Shi was Lu Qin, and a thought flashed through Sun Juan's mind, but it quickly faded away. However, both of them were good-looking, and after a few glances, her appetite improved.
After dinner, the mother and daughter went into the kitchen. Sun Juan glanced outside and said, "We were just talking about this. Your Aunt Qian went to the Women's Federation today and said she wanted to introduce you to someone. The man works in a repair shop and works in the same unit as Xiaohong's father. I want your aunt to help take a look. What do you think?"
Sun Juan was quite open-minded and did not force her to go, but time waits for no one.
When the blind date was mentioned, Qin Shi thought of the man from last year. She had no such idea in her mind. She resisted in her heart, "Mom, let's wait a little longer."
When she was in school, she had male classmates pursuing her, but she was so focused on her studies that when they couldn't get her, they moved on to other men. Now, due to her restricted work environment, she's surrounded by older men or only lesbians. Over time, she's lost interest in dating.
As expected, Sun Juan stopped wiping the stove. For a moment, she actually thought that Lu Qin was a good guy, but their ages were not suitable.
Lu Qin walked to the door with his hands in his pockets, but turned and left when he heard it was a private conversation.
Qin Shi finished washing the dishes, she dried her hands and came out of the kitchen.
Lu Qin felt someone behind him, he turned around and raised his eyebrows.
Qin Shi asked him, "Dongdong went to school?"
"Yes, school just starts today." He knew that his son Kong Dongdong was very lovable.
Qin Shi uttered a sigh of regret, "I found a few more books later, which you told me about before, do you still want them?"
The latter is the real thing.
Lu Qin didn't expect that she still remembered it. "If you have any books, please give them to me. Thank you, Comrade Qin."
"You're welcome." Qin Shi pulled up her sleeves and pressed down the wet part of the dishes. "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go to work later."
The library where she works is far from her home.
"Then Comrade Qin, go ahead and get busy."
Kong Yue glanced over here and saw that they were chatting at a polite distance, so he quickly looked away.
It was exactly 1:30 when Lu Qin left Qin's house. He chatted with his brother-in-law for a while. Lu Qin had to rush back to the factory to go to work. He planned to leave work early today to pick up Kong Dongdong.
Director Ren followed the latest plan and said, "We have already reached cooperation with the supply and marketing cooperatives in the surrounding counties. We will try to get as much as we can from the city. The other three cooperative partners will also provide us with assistance. Do you have any other questions?"
Lu Qin glanced at the others and took the lead in responding, "Director, there's no problem on my end."
"Okay, then have them test the difference between machine-made and hand-made ones to see if the difference is significant."
"OK."
The factory office staff were all busy. The salary was higher than elsewhere, but there was also more work to do.
On the other side, the school.
It was almost three in the afternoon.
A child with a fair and fair face sat by the window, swinging his legs. His small back was straight as he listened attentively to the teacher's lecture.
The teacher on the stage was a woman in her early thirties, wearing a typical gray work suit and short hair, teaching them word by word.
Children are naturally afraid of their teachers and dare not whisper to each other.
When the get out of class was over, the teacher packed up and left, and the classroom suddenly became buzzing.
Kong Dongdong put his pencil and notebook into his small bag, held onto the table, moved his butt outward, and as soon as his calves touched the ground, he was ready to leave with the bag on his back.
Most of the children in the commune started first grade at the age of seven or eight, and he was considered short among the older ones.
He was surrounded before he even walked out the door.
"Kong Dongdong, I'll bring you some candy tomorrow."
"I have pickled duck eggs at home. I'll cut half of one and bring it to you."
"I have a lot of mulberries at home. I'll bring them to you when they're ripe."
Kong Dongdong raised his head and said, "Thank you, brother."
When he raised his face, it looked even more like someone wanted to pinch it.
"No, thank you." The little kid looked at him without blinking, thinking that Kong Dongdong was so cute.
Kong Dongdong walked out of the classroom and walked towards the office with his legs twitching, his army green shoulder bag swinging back and forth.
A teacher in the office just came in and found a little kid sitting in the corner. He was not much taller than the table and was writing his homework stroke by stroke.
The female teacher subconsciously slowed down her movements.
Kong Dongdong had heard the voice a long time ago. He stopped writing and looked up, "Hello, sister."
"Hey! Doing your homework." The female teacher blushed as she was still being called "sister" at such an old age.
"Um!"
Because his uncle said that if he did his homework at night, his eyes would go blind. He didn't want to go blind, as his eyes were so beautiful.
"Then write slowly. If you don't understand, ask the teacher." The female teacher deliberately lowered her voice.
"Okay! Thank you, sister." He held the pen tightly.
When Lu Chunnong returned with a pile of notebooks, she found the office a bit quiet. As expected, the teachers were trying to accommodate Kong Dongdong's homework. She had no idea why Kong Dongdong loved doing homework so much.
She smiled and nodded to the teachers, then walked behind him, deliberately making some noise so as not to scare him, "Dongdong, are you done writing?"
"Mom, please wait for me, there's still a little bit left." Kong Dongdong raised his head and looked back.
Lu Chunnong smiled as he supported the back of his head to prevent him from getting dizzy or tired. "Don't worry, I'll accompany you."
"Thank you, Mom."
Kong Dongdong resumed his straight posture and began writing again, stroke by stroke, at the same speed as before. He worked seriously and did not slack off just because he was in a hurry.
The corners of Lu Chunnong's lips curled up unconsciously, and there was a soft look in his eyes.
Twenty minutes later, Kong Dongdong finished his homework, put the notebook away and put it in his bag. Seeing that his mother had not finished correcting his homework, he took out a candy from his pocket and put it in his mouth and bit it. He put the other two candies back and sat there quietly waiting.
Lu Chunnong turned around and found him waiting there. She quickly put away the notebook and other things and said, "Let's go home."
"Okay." He jumped down and held her hand. "Mom, do you want some candy?"
"Where does the sugar come from?"
"My uncle gave it to me."
"My uncle gave it to me. Just take one a day. Don't take more."
The mother and son walked outside. The students in the school had already dispersed. There were still one or two teachers like Lu Chunnong, holding their children and walking out.
Lu Qin stood at the door and waited for two minutes. Just then, he waved to them from afar, "Sister, Dongdong, here you are!"
Kong Dongdong's eyes lit up immediately, and he held or rather pulled Lu Chunnong's hand and walked forward.
Lu Chunnong quickened his pace and walked over, "Why are you here?"
Lu Qin took the things from her and put them in the bag hanging on the handlebars. "I told my brother-in-law not to come. Today happens to be Kong Dongdong's first day of school, so I came to pick him up. I'll be very busy in the next few days and won't have time."
He stepped onto the bike, picked up Kong Dongdong and placed her in the front, then took the sling from her sister's hand and lightly tied them up. "Hold on to your uncle and don't move. Sister, come up."
Lu Chunnong hummed and sat sideways in the back. "It was you who mentioned going to the city before."
"The factory has released new products, and we are busy with these things."
Lu Qin was riding a bicycle. The road was flat and he pedaled quite fast. The wind blew a lot of air on his back.
He simply opened the clothes in front of him and wrapped Kong Dongdong in it. Kong Dongdong had already hugged his waist with both hands.
Although Lu Chunnong couldn't see his movements from the back, she could sense his attentiveness. She also remembered that he was eighteen years old and had grown up. She wondered if she should ask her brother-in-law to ask him if he had any lesbian crushes.
When she returned home, Sun Laimei was waiting for her early. Only when she saw her grandson did her empty heart finally settle down.
Lu Qin was packing Kong Dongdong's schoolbag, and he dumped out a bunch of things, including a broken bamboo dragonfly, candies, bottle caps, half a dry leaf, and a white stone that looked like it had broken crystals.
Out of respect for the child, he guessed that it was a gift from a classmate, and since the gift was small but the sentiment was great, he put it back.
Being able to bring back something means that you are popular in the class and at least you don’t have to worry about being bullied.
The author has something to say:
I'll update on Saturday or Sunday, I'm so busy. I feel like the most relaxing time is during the weekdays.
