Chapter 22
Even from the moment he entered the door, Lu Qin gave Qin Minghai a very comfortable feeling.
"By the way, Comrade Lu, which brigade are you from?" he asked curiously after releasing her hand, mentally planning to send a banner before the New Year.
Lu Qin was never socially anxious. As long as the other person was willing to talk, he would chat with them until dark. He showed his big white teeth and said, "I'm from the Dongyang Brigade. Uncle, have you heard of me?"
Qin Minghai quickly reacted to the question and laughed twice, "Of course I've heard of it. It's from the Red Flag Commune, right?"
"Yes, it's over there. Uncle, you have a really good memory. There are quite a few communes and brigades under the county, and you can remember them all." Lu Qin praised.
Then Qin Minghai discovered the advantage of the young comrade's sweet talk.
Sun Juan had heard enough and quickly interrupted them, "Don't stand here. The food is ready. Minghai, you and Comrade Lu should sit down and chat while you eat."
The group then moved from the front door to the living room.
Qin Shi had already laid out the food and personally moved the chair aside, "Comrade Lu, please sit here."
This side is next to the corridor and not against the wall, so there is plenty of space for activities.
Lu Qin looked down and saw her slender fingers resting on the back of the chair, red from the cold. He also saw a bowl in front of him that looked new and still had water droplets on it. He said, "Thank you, Comrade Qin, for your hard work."
Qin Shi pursed her lips and smiled, "You're welcome."
Lu Qin's eyelids twitched when he saw this smile, and he remembered that cruel kick again.
He thought that he would not be able to forget it for the time being.
He smiled politely, nodded, and sat down.
The Qin family's dining table was set up at the end of the living room. There were only four people in the family, with three rooms and a living room. The living room was also divided into a kitchen and toilet, so it was a bit crowded overall.
The people you thank always come from distant ones first and then those who are close to you. After Qin Minghai sat down, he thanked Zhu Hong again.
Zhu Hong didn't argue with her elders at this time, but she spoke the truth. "Uncle, you have already come to my house with gifts to express your gratitude. There is no need to thank me."
Qin Minghai choked. Fortunately, he also prepared a gift for Lu Qin, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
The table was quickly filled.
To be honest, after traveling through time for so many days, this is the first time Lu Qin has seen a table with so many dishes.
He sighed, alas, it was all earned by his own ability.
Sun Juan was already calling out, "Comrade Lu, try the chicken nuggets and the old duck soup. They're both freshly made today. And Honghong, you're welcome too."
Lu Qin picked up the bowl with a smile and praised, "Thank you, Auntie. You are such a good cook. The dishes on the table are so pretty. They must be delicious."
Sun Juan's brows brightened when she heard this, and she couldn't stop smiling. Her enthusiasm increased. "What are you talking about? Why don't you try it first? Come, auntie will help you serve it. You won't be polite when you get home."
"No, no need to be so polite," Lu Qin used all his strength to hold the bowl, but it was still snatched away.
Lu Qin: Oh, his aunt is so strong.
He felt embarrassed when Sun Juan brought him a bowl of meat that was almost overflowing.
During the meal, Lu Qin made both elders very happy.
When Lu Qin came out of the Qin family, he was holding the gift from the Qin family with an embarrassed look on his face.
The door closed and opened again.
Zhu Hong followed from behind, "Comrade Lu, please wait for me."
Hearing the noise outside, Qin Minghai asked, "Comrade Lu and Zhu Hong are dating?"
"No," Sun Juan said as she put on her coat for work. "I remember it was Lao Zhang who said that after the New Year, the food factory would recruit young people with design skills, right?"
"That's right. Lao Zhang said it several days ago. Why are you asking me this?" Qin Minghai recalled.
"That girl Honghong, hasn't she become prettier? I just asked someone and found out that Lu Qin can draw. I heard that two or three factories in the county will be hiring next year. Before asking Honghong, I wanted to focus on the garment factories, but after thinking about it, garment factories are not as good as food factories. In a garment factory, according to the current trend, he can't teach people how to dress. It's not good to teach him, a male comrade, to make clothes. I see that Comrade Lu has good appreciation and design skills. Since he can draw, he should also be able to draw packaging designs."
Qin Minghai was too careless to notice the change in Zhu Hong, but when he heard this, he frowned, "How can people and packaging be the same thing? Besides, there are so many people watching over that job."
Sun Juan had already picked up her bag. "Every job in this county is under scrutiny. I'll just see if they're hiring and ask Lu Qin to come over and give it a try. When you have time, ask Lao Zhang more."
She saw that the child was very sensible and that helping him wouldn't cost her anything, so she just informed him. Some inside information was very important, and those who had prepared early would have already taken the exam when others didn't know about it.
Lu Qin rubbed his itchy nose on the way home. He shrank his stomach. He felt uncomfortable because he ate too much. He was so happy that he felt uncomfortable.
As soon as Zhu Hong caught up with him, she couldn't wait to share with him, "Comrade Lu, several female comrades in our supply and marketing cooperative have recently imitated my dressing style, and some have even asked me privately how I did it."
Lu Qin seemed to hear the sound of money, his eyes lit up, "So what did you say?"
When this matter was mentioned, Zhu Hong raised her chin and said, "Huh, how could I possibly tell them?"
Lu Qin suddenly stopped, wondering if he had heard wrongly, "What did you say?"
"What, what happened?" Zhu Hong was startled.
Lu Qin almost wanted to say the words "blocking my path to wealth".
But when I think about her previous experiences, I feel it is normal for her to refuse.
But he was heartbroken, extremely heartbroken.
Lu Qin tried to soften his expression. "It's nothing, but Comrade Zhu, you really shouldn't have kept it from them."
"But why should I tell them?" It's enough for her to look good on her own.
Lu Qin shook his head and said seriously, "The slogan says that we should help others. And look at what I'm holding. Isn't it the result of helping others? Comrade Zhu, you can help others more often. Even if you don't tell them, they will learn on their own. Look, haven't they imitated your style and become more beautiful? Think about it, you spent money, but they learned it directly from you for free. Why don't you let them spend money so that they don't get anything for free from you?"
Zhu Hong frowned. Although freeloading was a new word to her, she already understood what Lu Qin meant.
"Why are they like this!!" Zhu Hong recalled and found that it was true. She wanted to go back and fight with them.
Lu Qin remained calm, "Comrade Zhu, don't be angry. It's because you are good at dressing up that people imitate you. This is something worth being happy about."
"And you're smarter. Think about it, I've only taught you for a short while, but you've already been able to apply what I've learned to other situations. They definitely can't compare to you."
Zhu Hong was delighted again by what he said.
As they walked, they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative.
As Lu Qinlin left, he told her, "See you after the New Year, Comrade Zhu. I look forward to your feedback."
He still wanted to participate, but it was a pity that if he delayed any further he would miss the ox cart returning.

"Sister, aunt, Dongdong, I'm back!" The voice has arrived even though the person hasn't arrived yet.
Sun Laimei threw away her crutches and was practicing walking, while Lu Chunnong was packing dried radishes.
The two were frightened to different degrees.
Lu Qin walked into the yard with a smile on his face, and the little kid was already hugging his thighs.
After Sun Laimei recovered, she saw him holding so many things and asked, "Where did you get these?"
Even Lu Chunnong looked over.
Lu Qin smiled and said, "This is a thank you gift from them when I helped others. By the way, Auntie, the traffickers have been caught. We won't have to keep Dongdong so busy anymore."
Lu Chunnong stopped what he was doing and raised his head, revealing most of his pretty face that was originally covered by his hair. "Human trafficker"
"Yes, this happened some time ago, but there's no need to worry now."
At least those in Laiyang County have been arrested.
"That's what my brother-in-law is busy with."
Sun Laimei then asked, "Your brother-in-law is in the army, why is he busy with human trafficking?"
Lu Qin realized later that his brother-in-law might have been transferred back, but it was not time for him to retire yet.
"I guess it's an arrangement from above."
Lu Qin glanced and saw that Lu Chunnong was already lowering his head to continue packing dried radishes. After taking out two candies from the package and stuffing them into his nephew's pockets, he scratched his brow.
