Chapter 84
Time flies and it is August, and autumn is approaching.
The Laifu factory added two new production machines, and the factory's output increased by nearly half than before.
Lu Qin came out of the production department, carrying two bags of vegetable biscuits and cookies that Comrade Liao had given him. Comrade Liao had been promoted to the position of team leader and seemed to be about to be promoted again. In other words, Comrade Liao always kept his word and asked him to try out new products as soon as they were available. He was always responsible for the product.
"Comrade Zhou, are you busy?" Just as he was walking on the road, he met Zhou Jun coming towards him.
Ever since Lu Qin received the reward, he often visited the factory office. One of them took the initiative to approach him, and the two naturally became familiar with each other.
Comrade Zhou smiled and nodded, looking down, "I just came back from the production department."
Lu Qin picked up the bag and said, "I just got a new product. Try it."
He seemed to have heard from someone that Comrade Zhou was going to be promoted again. Tsk, for someone so young, he got promoted quite quickly.
Zhou Jun naturally took a piece from the bag. He had to admit that although he was subconsciously afraid of Lu Qin, Lu Qin was still a very comfortable person to get along with.
He took two pieces and wrapped them in a silk scarf from his pocket. "Thanks. I'll eat them when I get home."
He also explained.
Lu Qin saw his little action but didn't say anything.
Zhou Jun looked down at the watch on his wrist. "I'm going out for a while. If you have any letters to pick up, I'll bring them back for you."
It was no longer a secret that Lu Qin had submitted his manuscripts. He had been receiving his royalties for nearly three months, and he went to the manuscript office on time in the middle of every month.
"No need to bother, I have to go out later."
"Okay, Director Ren hasn't finished what he asked me to do yet, so I'll be busy now."
Lu Qin shrugged, looked at the direction he left, and squinted his eyes. Why did he feel that Comrade Zhou's head was tending to be bald from a distance?
Maybe he saw it wrong.
It was getting late, Lu Qin whistled and walked back to the Propaganda Department.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the familiar voice of Secretary Liu, "What did you take to eat?"
"The comrades from the production department brought it. It's a new flavor. You can try it."
Lu Qin took out a bag and put it on the table, inviting them to eat.
Several people were not polite.
When Lu Qin returned to his seat, he found the table piled with persimmons, salted duck eggs, oranges, pineapples and other fruits, with no two of them alike.
Xu Youzhi ate a biscuit and pointed at himself and several other comrades, "What a coincidence! Everyone brought food today."
They brought everything themselves.
I have to say that the atmosphere in the Propaganda Department is still very good.
After thanking several comrades, Lu Qin straightened his clothes and took out the packed box from the drawer. "Youzhi, I'm leaving first."
"Be careful on the road."
Today is Monday. Section Chief Zhao just returned from a two-hour meeting. He has an indescribable joy on his face. He subconsciously looks towards Lu Qin's position and asks, "Where is Lu Qin?"
"Chief, have you forgotten that Comrade Lu asked for leave?" Secretary Liu glanced at the joy on his face and was no longer surprised. Chief Zhao had been like this every day recently.
Section Chief Zhao suddenly remembered, well, he had forgotten it himself. The matters concerning the personnel transfer and promotion in the factory could only be discussed after everyone was gathered.
When Lu Qin left, he gave two more cookies to Grandpa Huang, and then rode his bicycle to the library to find Qin Shi.
Qin Shi had just finished her leave and came out with a gift in her hand, "Let's go, Comrade Lu."
"Okay, I'll ride slower, and you keep up." Lu Qin put one foot on the ground and turned back to remind her, "If it doesn't work, I'll give you a ride."
"Don't worry." Qin Shi hung the things on the handlebars, stepped on the bike with his left foot, and stepped on it with his right foot.
The two of them rushed to the countryside at the same time, one in front and the other behind.
After leaving the county town, Lu Qin saw that there were not many people on the road, so he rode slower and tried his best to maintain his balance.
Finally, an hour later, they arrived at Comrade Wu Ming's hometown in the countryside.
Wu Ming found a partner through an introduction in May this year and they got married today.
The road in the Red Star Brigade was bumpy, so the two men stopped and pushed the cart forward.
There were bursts of noise ahead, from children and adults, and the atmosphere was festive.
The two looked at each other and went to the lively place.
"Comrade Qin, please wait here for a moment. I'll go ask." Lu Qin stopped. It was the first time for both of them to come to Comrade Wu Ming's hometown.
Qin Shi looked at the time, nodded in agreement, and looked at the bicycle beside him.
Lu Qin squeezed into the crowd in two or three steps and looked inside through the courtyard wall. Maybe Comrade Wu Ming was not there. He looked around but could not see Wu Ming.
You can't just go in like this.
Listening to the chattering of the old aunt beside him, he walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Excuse me, aunties, is this the home of Comrade Wu Ming who works at the commune?"
"right."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie."
Lu Qin squeezed out and gave Qin Shi a look to show that this was his home.
The two of them then went into the yard.
Those gathered in the yard were all relatives of the Wu family or a few families close to the Wu family, chattering away, and those who gathered outside were there to watch the fun.
A young man and woman suddenly appeared at the door, immediately attracting their attention.
Lu Qin took the lead, speaking casually, "Excuse me, is Comrade Wu Ming here? We are his colleagues."
"Wu Ming, a guest has arrived!" The middle-aged woman standing nearby shouted into the house.
The woman was probably Wu Ming's mother or aunt. When she heard that it was a colleague, she was particularly enthusiastic. "Please sit down. Wu Ming is changing clothes and will be out soon."
The layout of the room was a row of five rooms. Wu Ming came out of the room on the side. He was adjusting the buttons on his collar. When he looked up and saw the person coming, a clear smile appeared on his face.
"You are here"
Lu Qin almost didn't react. In his impression, Comrade Wu didn't like to laugh, but today was his big day, so it was normal to think about it.
"Congratulations on your wedding and may you have a baby soon." Lu Qin handed him the gift.
"Congratulations on your wedding!" Qin Shi handed the gifts to him.
"Thank you. Come inside and rest. By the way, you can leave the car in my room first."
This prevents the children from running around and bumping into anything.
When entering the door, two middle-aged men in work clothes walked out. They looked 50% similar to Wu Ming and their eyes fell on Lu Qin.
"This is"
"Big Brother and Second Brother are both my friends. I'll take them into the house and have a seat first."
Lu Qin nodded to them, stood up and let Comrade Qin walk in front, and he followed behind.
He guessed that these two were Comrade Wu Ming's backers.
The room was decorated festively. Lu Qin glanced around and rolled up his sleeves. "Comrade Wu Ming, do you need me to change clothes?"
He is not only a guest today, but also helping to welcome the bride.
It was not easy for Wu Ming to decide to find Lu Qin to marry him, because his face was there and no one would notice him, not to mention that his partner had such a sign when looking at people.
Because of his arrogant personality, he doesn't have many good friends. People like Lu Qin are already very good friends.
Wu Ming looked him up and down, looking as handsome as ever. "It's okay, Comrade Lu, you look fine in this outfit."
Lu Qin didn't want to lose face, so when he said yes, he even started to tidy up his hair.
Qin Shi stood at the side and saw Comrade Lu pursing his lips, his curled eyelashes raised, his eyes also looking upwards, and he was taking care of his hairstyle very seriously.
Before she left, she asked if she needed help. Lu Qin shook her hair lightly and said, "No need for help. Comrade Qin, you can rest here later. I will accompany Comrade Wu to pick up the bride first."
Qin Shi hummed and reminded Wu Ming, "If you need a bicycle to pick up the bride, you can ride mine."
Wu Ming felt warm in his heart, "It's okay, we don't need it. Thank you, Comrade Qin."
The time for the bride's arrival was approaching, and Wu Ming changed into a white shirt with army green pants and a large red flower pinned to his chest. To make it festive, he also gave large red flowers to the bride's guests.
Including Lu Qin, there were four people helping to pick up the bride. When Lu Qin appeared, the other three looked at his glowing face in surprise, feeling ashamed. A gay man was whiter and more handsome than the lesbian.
Lu Qin smiled and greeted them, then followed them pushing his bicycle.
When Qin Shi saw them leave, she stood under the eaves and waited.
Lu Qin looked at the people around him, all of whom were riding bicycles, which gave him a new understanding of Comrade Wu Ming's family background.
A group of people rushed to the bride's house.
Lu Qin followed on his bicycle, not knowing where he was. He entered the fork in the road leading to the brigade and continued riding forward for another twenty minutes before reaching the brigade to which the woman belonged.
At the girl's home, the girl was wearing a bright red dress and a red flower on her head.
"I heard your boyfriend is quite handsome."
New lesbian Wang Qing blushed, and thinking of Wu Ming's fair and clean appearance, she nodded. She liked him because of his fair and clean appearance.
Just then, a voice came from outside, "Here comes the groom!"
"Let's go and take a look."
"Qingqing, let's go check on you first," several female comrades chattered. They had never seen Wu Ming because they were too busy with work.
"Hmm." Wang Qing's voice was as soft as a mosquito's.
Outside, the groom and his bride-welcome guests were lined up in a row, all with flushed faces. It was a happy day, and their faces were filled with smiles.
Influenced by the atmosphere on the scene, Lu Qin smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed, thinking that weddings were always lively in any era.
Several female comrades came out of the house and their eyes lit up when they saw the few people.
Then, thinking of Wang Qing's instructions, several people and households simultaneously turned their eyes to the second person on the left. They were almost dazzled by his fair skin, and his teeth, which were exposed because of his happiness, looked even whiter.
As Lu Qin smiled, he felt that they were looking at him.
