Chapter 64
Before Lu Qin greeted them, the man and woman chatted haltingly, introducing their names and jobs. As soon as their eyes met, they avoided each other and lowered their heads. It was obvious that they had a good impression of each other but were embarrassed.
As soon as he came, especially as soon as he spoke, the two of them held their breath and didn't know what to talk about.
Lu Qinjun had an apologetic smile on his face. "Um, did I bother you? Don't mind me. You can continue chatting."
So the awkward conversation continued.
They introduced each other's family backgrounds.
From time to time, he would look back at Lu Qin, and occasionally give them encouraging glances, unknowingly playing the role of host.
The topic was immediately opened.
"My eldest brother also works in transportation, but in the next county."
"Ah, what a coincidence."
"Well, he has been working for four or five years..."
Lu Qin's seat had a backrest, and he leaned back comfortably. Seeing them looking over, he nodded, "Ah, yes, yes, it's really a coincidence. I think you and his eldest brother can have a good chat sitting together. And Comrade Ma, you have relatives in the transportation department, so you should be quite familiar with the nature of this job."
The woman smiled and said, "Well, the transport team is very busy and tiring, but it's also good. Once I have a day off, I can rest at home for a few days."
Moreover, the salary is high and you can get a lot of rare materials.
Cao Haijin scratched the back of his head and smiled.
Lu Qin: Oh wow, there’s hope.
Seeing the reactions of the two, Lu Qin continued his efforts.
"What about this female comrade? How about you introduce your position to the male comrade?"
The topic was about to end, and the two were racking their brains to think of a new topic.
Once the topic is changed, there is something else to talk about.
“…”
We chatted for more than ten minutes.
"From what I heard you say, it seems like you two are destined to meet. Your homes are both in the north of Laiyang County, just down the same street, and your family situations are roughly the same. How come you haven't met before? It would be even better if you had similar outlooks." The young man slowly expressed his general opinion.
The lesbian blushed, but the gay man, perhaps because he had been traveling for a long time, had a darker complexion and did not look blushing.
But after the young man's intervention, they really felt that the two of them were destined to be together.
A female comrade asked: "Comrade Lu, what are the three views?"
The young man thought for a moment, "Three perspectives, to put it simply, it means you share the same revolutionary aspirations, similar perspectives on matters big and small, and you also need to be considerate of each other. In fact, sometimes you can even tell just by watching how your parents interact with each other on a daily basis."
"Oh, I see."
They thought about it carefully and roughly understood.
"But how do I understand this?" Maladi is a reserved person, and she will continue to chat once the topic is opened.
"Yes." Cao Haijin asked, unwilling to be left out.
Lu Qin found it interesting from the start, his eyes flickering across their faces. "Getting along, everyone gets to know each other through time, so spend some time together honestly to deepen your understanding. Also, I think your family conditions are pretty similar, and you can understand each other's work. So, in the end, it all depends on your ideas..."
Ma Laidi and Cao Haijin looked at each other silently, and it took two seconds before they looked away. They were both adults and had their own ideas.
Mainly because of the participation of young people, many people who were embarrassed to speak out now spoke out.
Lu Qin's eyes kept wandering over their faces. "Hmm, quite dramatic." He leaned over and said a few words with a smile.
When Secretary Liu saw his condition and couldn't help but walk over, the two comrades, a man and a woman, had already been put together, and the atmosphere between the three of them was pretty good.
Noticing a dark shadow in front of him, he turned around with a smile on his face, "Sister Liu"
He moved aside and warmly invited her, "Sister Liu, would you like to sit down and take a rest?"
"By the way, this is Comrade Ma from the feeding post and Comrade Cao from the transportation post." He did not forget to introduce them.
The two comrades, who had become familiar with each other, looked at each other and followed Lu Qin's lead in addressing her, "Sister Liu."
Secretary Liu nodded and said with a smile, "You guys take a seat. I'll go look around."
She turned to look at Lu Qin, hinting and reminding him, "What are you doing? Why don't you look around?"
The organization needs to solve the problem of single men and women. As a single comrade, he does not solve the problem, but instead inserts himself into the relationship with others. What is he doing?
She had wanted to ask this question when she was standing far away, but she couldn't open her mouth in front of a stranger.
Lu Qin opened his mouth and said, "No rush. I'll sit down and listen first, and then learn from them and gain their experience."
He may not need it at the age of seventeen, but he will always need it in the future.
Secretary Liu: “…”
She didn't realize that he was seeking Buddhist scriptures.
But the gay men and women who were dating actually nodded.
Secretary Liu didn't know whether he believed it or not, but she pointed to the distance and told him, "You should learn more from Comrade Xu."
Looking in the direction she pointed, I saw Xu Youzhi wearing his signature black glasses and talking to the woman in front of him with an embarrassed look on his face.
Lu Qin: Forget it. He’s doing fine the way he is.
But in the eyes of Secretary Liu, that was Comrade Xu actively obeying the organization.
She added a few words, "We're all factory workers. We weren't familiar with each other before, but once we sat down and chatted, we could always find a topic to talk about. Besides, there are also 17 or 18-year-old female comrades in our factory..."
"Yes, Sister Liu, you are right. I will go there later."
After receiving Lu Qin's response, Secretary Xu left. Halfway through, she suddenly felt puzzled. Why didn't any female comrades come forward to talk to Comrade Lu?
She turned around and happened to see Comrade Lu greeting the man and woman at the next table. The woman seemed to know him and responded enthusiastically, but she didn't approach him to start a serious conversation.
This face is there, why doesn't any lesbian take the initiative? It's really strange!
At the end of the conversation, Lu Qin teased them, "If you ever find a partner, don't forget to give me some wedding candy."
As a lesbian, Malaidi lowered her head and acted embarrassed, but Cao Haijin readily agreed, "Yes, I'll give you a handful of candy when the time comes."
It was at this time that Lu Qin seemed to discover a problem: no female comrade came up to chat with him.
He leaned back and turned his head to look around. There were still quite a few men and women standing there. They were probably those who hadn't found love and were still looking for someone to chat with, or those who were reserved and shy, or those who were like Comrade Xu and had no intention of finding a partner.
He stood up and said, "I'm going to go for a walk over there, you guys continue chatting."
After all, I promised Secretary Liu, and I can't go back on my word. It would be bad if Secretary Liu came back again.
Malaidi and Cao Haijin nodded, "Okay."
After their chat just now, they now feel that things are going more naturally as they continue to get along with each other.
After he left, Cao Haijin scratched his head, his dark face flushed, "Well, Comrade Lu is pretty good, don't you think?"
Malaidi laughed and said, "Yes, it's very good."
And he is handsome, but how should I put it, he is like a flower, and everyone likes to admire him from afar.
When Director Mei from the temporary Women's Federation of the Food Factory came over, she saw that the two of them were already chatting, "Xiao Ma, this is..."
Seeing that someone had succeeded, her worries dissipated a lot. But why did they start chatting so quickly?
"Ah, Aunt Mei." Malaidi stood up with her hands hanging at her sides, feeling like she had been caught.
Director Mei is a friend of Malaidi’s mother, and she has watched Malaidi grow up.
Seeing her gaze fall to the side, she wiped the sweat on her clothes with her backhand and introduced her, "This is Cao Haijin from the transportation post."
Cao Haijin immediately stood up and greeted her, his dark face turning red again, "Hello, Director."
"Hello, hello, please sit down, you're welcome." Director Mei nodded with a smile.
Then he pulled Malaidi aside, with a question in his eyes, "How did you start chatting with him so quickly after you met him?"
Look around, everyone is still stammering and introducing each other. If it works out, forget it, but don't be fooled.
"Ah." Malaidi was stunned for a long time before she understood the meaning in her eyes.
She shook her head, "No, we just met."
Seeing her look of disbelief, she said, "Well, someone helped us before."
She then recounted what had just happened.
Director Mei's frown gradually relaxed, and then his eyes lit up. "What about Comrade Lu? I want to get to know him."
"ah."
******
Comrade Xu, who was chatting with a female comrade, saw Lu Qin walking towards him and he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Comrade Lu, I'm here."
The lesbian opposite him had two braids with two red hairbands tied on them. She had a yellowish complexion and big eyes. She wore a floral shirt and black pants. She looked well-dressed and was a very attractive lesbian.
Lu Qin saw the gleam of help in his eyes, walked over and patted his shoulder, "I've been looking for you for a long time."
He remembered that the two of them were already chatting when he came in.
He looked at the female comrade opposite him and greeted her with a smile, "Hello, female comrade."
"Hello, Comrade Lu, I know you." The big-eyed female comrade smiled openly.
Lu Qin's expression flashed with surprise, then he showed his big white teeth, "Really? Then I'm quite glad."
He remembered most of the people he had communicated with, but he probably knew the female comrade in front of him from other occasions.
"Comrade Lu, you're joking." Wu Fangfang glanced at Xu Youzhi. "You performed so well before. Many female comrades in our factory have been talking about you."
At that moment, Lu Qin saw the sincerity in her eyes and scratched his brow uncomfortably.
Seeing that the two of them started chatting immediately, Xu Youzhi's brows gradually relaxed. He thought to himself that he was worthy of being Comrade Lu. He coughed, his throat was a little dry.
Wu Fangfang loosened her grip on the tail of her braid and said, "Well, since you guys have something to talk about, I'll be leaving first."
She was talking to Lu Qin, but her eyes were looking at Xu Youzhi.
Lu Qin raised his eyebrows and asked, "How about we talk more?"
"No thanks," Wu Fangfang said, moving her feet, the tips of her shoes touching, a smile on her face. "I'm going to go get some water. I was talking to Comrade Xu just now and I'm thirsty."
Xu Youzhi: “…”
Lu Qin looked like he was just enjoying himself.
After everyone left, before he even opened his mouth, Xu Youzhi asked him, "Where did you go just now?"
When she opened her mouth, Lu Qin realized that Wu Fangfang was not the only one who was thirsty.
He put his hands in his pockets and raised his chin to indicate, "I'll just sit over there."
Just at this moment, Malaidi and Director Mei walked towards them.
