Chapter 61
Qian Yuelan didn't know that her mother-in-law was trying to scare her. She thought that her mother-in-law really meant it. She didn't want to leave the Qin family. Without the Qin family, what would the Qian family be? She hurriedly said, "What are you talking about, mom? No matter how good a stepmother is, she's not as good as a biological mother. Oh, I won't talk to mom anymore. I'm going to my parents' house to write an apology letter to my mom."
After that, Qian Yuelan walked out.
Zhang Hongping smiled coldly. You little brat, you think you can play with her just because you have a few hairs. Zhang Hongping has no other skills, but she is very good at judging people. You can say that she is a snob. When Lu Haici and Qin Ming had a fight, she was a little angry because Lu Cheng and Qian Yuelan had met before, so she wanted to use Yang Mailian to bully Lin Qingqing.
But when she knew that Lin Qingqing was not easy to bully, she immediately changed her target.
Later, she didn't expect that Qin Ming and Lu Haici became friends. More importantly, after becoming friends, she found that Sun Zi had become much more sensible. This discovery made her change her view of Lin Qingqing. As long as it was good for Sun Zi, she would be Zhang Hongping's friend.
In fact, after learning to cook from Lin Qingqing, she found that this girl was really good, not the kind of person who was serious, and was also generous. Otherwise, with the conflict between them, how could she teach herself to cook?
So after knowing that Lin Qingqing was a good person, Qian Yuelan told her about Lu Cheng's visit to a gynecologist. She knew what Qian Yuelan and Yang Mailian were going to do, so she immediately went to find Lin Qingqing and reminded her. However, she did not expect that the final outcome would be the current one, asking Qian Yuelan and Yang Mailian to write an apology letter.
Speaking of which, she really looked down on Yang Mailian as a relative. You are the wife of a battalion commander, and you are fighting with the wife of a regiment commander. What are you fighting for?
She has no idea at all.
However, Zhang Hongping also likes such stupid relatives. If she meets a smart relative who will calculate everything for their family, that would be bad. The canteen of
the third company's cooking squad
After Lu Cheng finished his meal, he did not take Lu Haici home for a nap immediately, but went to talk to Lin Qingqing for a while. Since many people saw him and Qian Yuelan talking at the entrance of the army today, Lu Cheng wanted to report the matter first. Lin Qingqing was talking
to Liu Honghua, or more precisely, Liu Honghua was asking Lin Qingqing to learn how to read. Seeing Lu Cheng coming in, Liu Honghua hurriedly said, "Comrade Lin, I'll go see how much food is left in the warehouse."
Lin nodded and looked at Lu Cheng: "Have you finished your lunch?"
"Yes." Lu Cheng said, "Qian Yuelan came to see me this morning."
Lin was a little surprised: "She came to see you? She also came to see me around 9:30. She said she wanted to apologize to me and asked if the apology letter could be forgotten. I didn't agree. If it was an ordinary person, I would have forgotten it for the sake of Qin Ming and the Qin family, but I saw that Qian Yuelan clearly had no remorse, so I didn't agree. What I didn't expect was that she actually came to see you." This matter... You know, before Qian Yuelan married Qin San, she wanted to be with Lu Cheng. Is this... a treacherous act? Thinking of this, Lin looked at Lu Cheng with a little more scrutiny.
Lu Cheng felt a little creepy when Lin Qingqing looked at him. He had a bad feeling, but he didn't know what Lin Qingqing was thinking. He just said instinctively: "According to the time, she should have found you first and then found me, but I didn't see her." Fortunately, he didn't see her. It would have been worse if he had. "But she waited for me at the gate of the army until noon. When I came to eat at noon, I met her at the gate of the army."
Lin Qingqing raised her eyebrows: "Then what, did she beg you?" This matter was discussed by Lu Cheng and Commander Qin, and it was also proposed by Lu Cheng. It was useless for Qian Yuelan to find Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng said: "It's not a beg, just talk to me. I said that I talked to Master Qin about this matter, if she has any questions, please talk to Master Qin."
"Oh..." Lin Qingqing stretched out the tail tone and looked at Lu Cheng like this.
Lu Cheng felt a little uncomfortable: "I am not familiar with her. In fact, before I met her in the hospital this time, I hadn't met her for several years. The last time I met her was five or six years ago. Her mother wanted to introduce us to each other, but I refused. But I have never met her in private."
Lin said softly: "Well, actually you don't need to tell me this."
Lu Cheng: "..." Wouldn't it be worse if I didn't say it? "No, I think we should make it clear that she is not worthy of being the misunderstanding between us."
Lin Qingqing: "..." Can you not be so direct when speaking?
Lu Cheng: "Haici will be on holiday starting tomorrow."
Lin Qingqing: "What's wrong?" Her thoughts jumped a little too fast, and she hadn't reacted yet.
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to buy something for your family? It just so happens that it's the weekend soon, and I can rest. Can we go pick things together? I can carry things for you." Lu Cheng said seriously. His tone was calm, and his speech was neither fast nor slow.
Speaking of this, Lin Qingqing was a little tempted, but: "I haven't received my salary yet."
Lu Cheng said: "I can... lend it to you first. The army pays on the 1st of every month, but the weekend is June 30th. You can return it to me after you receive your salary." He used the words "borrow" and "return", and he was very dutiful.
Lin waved his hand gently: "Why not go after you get your salary? I still have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to settle the bill then. I will treat you to dinner after I settle the bill."
Lu Cheng curled his lips: "Okay." He felt a little happy. "Then let's go to the state-owned hotel in the county town? There is soda there. Do you like soda?"
"I like soda." Lu Haici washed his dishes and went to find his mother. He happened to hear what his father said, and he immediately said.
Lu Cheng: "..."
Lu Haici said again: "Mom, soda is delicious. My aunt bought me soda, and my father also bought me soda. It's delicious."
Seeing his greedy look, Lin Qingqing had no choice but to say: "Then next weekend when mom gets her salary, we will go to the state-owned hotel for dinner and buy you soda." Lin Qingqing really had never drunk soda in this era, but she had drunk soda in the future. When she was in the countryside, the village grocery store also had soda, in bottles, and it seemed to be called champagne. In the summer, her grandmother would buy her soda every now and then, especially on hot days. The iced champagne was especially delicious. She also loved to drink it when she was young. But later, as they grew up, the times changed, and there were more and more drinks, there was no champagne on the table.
"Mom is so nice." Lu Haici excitedly threw himself into Lin Qingqing's arms.
Lin Qingqing took a few steps back when he threw her, and Lu Cheng stared at her closely, afraid that she would be thrown down. Fortunately, she had stabilized before he reached out his hand.
Commander Qin said that he would give Lu Cheng an answer in the evening, but the answer came in the afternoon before the evening.
Lin Qingqing and Qi Shao and others cleaned up the canteen and went back to the family compound. As soon as they arrived at the family compound, they found that the house was very lively. Qin Ming and Lu Haici were playing, Zhang Hongping, Yang Mailian and Qian Yuelan were under the eaves... Lin raised her eyebrows slightly: "There are guests here, welcome them." There was no sign of conflict between her and Yang Mailian and Qian Yuelan on her face.
Zhang Hongping smiled and said, "I'm not here to bother you, I'm here too early."
Lin Qingqing: "There was something going on in the cafeteria today, so I stayed a little longer." She walked into the room and saw Lu Cheng and two older men sitting inside.
"You're back." Lu Cheng stood up, "This is Division Commander Qin, this is Battalion Commander Qian."
Lin Qingqing was also guessing, and after hearing what Lu Cheng said, she hurriedly said, "Hello, Division Commander Qin, Hello, Battalion Commander Qian." Although Battalion Commander Qian's military rank was lower than Lu Cheng's, he was older after all.
Teacher Qin said with a smile: "Xiao Lin, Lu Cheng said you are going to take the high school entrance exam. You are amazing. You cook delicious meals and study hard. You are a good role model for women."
Lin Qingqing said: "You are flattered. I often hear Qin Ming mention you. He said that his grandfather is a great hero. In the future, he will also be a great hero like his grandfather. It is my honor to meet you today." As he said this, he glanced at Lu Cheng, as if to ask, how did Teacher Qin know that she was going to take the high school entrance exam?
Teacher Qin couldn't stop laughing when he heard what Lin Qingqing said. This Lu Cheng's wife is really sincere. If Lin Qingqing said that someone else mentioned him, he might think that Lin Qingqing deliberately said nice things, but it was his grandson who mentioned him, so Teacher Qin believed it. For Master Qin, no matter how much others praised him, he was not as happy as his grandson's praise for him.
"Don't talk nonsense like a child." Zhang Hongping said, she also knew that this was what her grandson would say, "Xiao Ming was led astray by the old man, and he listens to the old man's bragging all day long."
Master Qin was unhappy: "What are you talking about? When did I brag? When I was young..."
"Come on, let's talk about business. I have heard that little thing no less than twenty times." Zhang Hongping interrupted Master Qin. Among the people present, only Zhang Hongping could interrupt him.
Master Qin was humiliated by the old woman, but he had no choice but to say with a straight face: "Lu Cheng's wife, I am really sorry for this matter. I have implicated you." As he said, he looked at Yang Mailian and Qian Yuelan.
Yang Mailian and Qian Yuelan did not dare to delay, they wanted to leave immediately, so they both took out the apology letter. Qian Yuelan said: "Comrade Lin, I'm sorry." Although she smiled, there was no smile in her eyes.
But Lin Qingqing didn't care. Today they came to apologize, and it was Commander Qin who brought them here. If they said anything unpleasant again, it would be Commander Qin's face that was lost. "It doesn't matter." She forgave generously.
Compared with Qian Yuelan, Yang Mailian's smile was already stiff. She really couldn't laugh, but there was nothing she could do. "Comrade Lin, I am so petty. I apologize to you. I can't write. This is the apology letter written by our Yuelan. Our old Qian guaranteed me that I will never gossip again." Her face in this life was ruined by Lin Qingqing. She would just avoid Lin Qingqing in the future.
Lin Qingqing smiled and said, "It's okay." As soon
as the apology letter was given, Qian Yuelan immediately said, "Dad, Mom, I have something to do in the hospital. I'm leaving first."
Yang Mailian: "I have some clothes to wash at home. I'm leaving first too."
The two of them didn't care about everyone's consent and left immediately.
Battalion Commander Qian said, "I'm leaving too. Deputy Regiment Lu, I'm sorry for this matter." He sighed.
Division Commander Qin also said goodbye.
Lu Cheng stood up: "I'll see you off."
Everyone left one by one, except Qin Ming, who was playing with Lu Haici. Ji Yang from next door also came over, so he didn't want to leave.
Zhang Hongping said: "Then don't go outside to bask in the sun, just play in the house, okay?" It was so hot, she was afraid that the child would get heatstroke.
Qin Ming: "Got it."
The matter ended with the three apology letters. However, with the end of this matter, Lu Haici also ushered in his winter, because the little guy was on summer vacation, which meant that Lu Cheng had to start training him.
Lin Qingqing didn't care about this, she knew Lu Cheng knew it in his heart.
"Comrade Lin, this is your salary slip, check it to see if there is any problem, if there is no problem, sign it, and I will give you the salary."
At noon on July 1, Qi Shao came to pay Lin Qingqing's salary.
Lin Qingqing checked her salary, which was three yuan in total, and she signed her name: "Thank you, squad leader, thank you for taking care of me in June, we will continue to work hard together in July." Oh my God, she finally received her first salary in this world, she was so excited. With the salary, she felt a little relieved. The days of asking men for money were really not what she wanted.
Qi Shao: "No need to thank me, no need to thank me, we will continue to work hard in July." With Comrade Lin, the kitchen team of the third company has become much happier, and everyone is more motivated to work than before. Qi
Shao didn't know that there is a saying that men and women working together are not tired.
Lin Qingqing received the three yuan salary of the kitchen team at noon, and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to settle the account in the afternoon.
"Sit tight, don't put your little feet inside the bike, understand?" Lin Qingqing still went with the two of them, with Lu Haici sitting at the back of the bike.
"I know, I won't put my little feet inside." Lu Haici is an experienced kid on a bike.
Lu Cheng stood at the door, looking at them, very envious.
Lu Haici seemed to hear his father's voice, he waved to his father: "Goodbye, Dad, we are going to the supply and marketing cooperative."
Lu Cheng stared at his hand expressionlessly. This little bastard thought today's task was not heavy enough, and he would extend the exercise by ten minutes next year.
Lin Qingqing felt that the kid was asking for trouble, so she said, "Okay, sit tight, I'm going to ride."
Lu Haici took his hand back and held the seat of the bicycle with his two little hands: "Mom, I'm sitting tight."
Lin Qingqing sat on the bicycle, tiptoed on the ground, turned around and said to Lu Cheng: "Lu Cheng, I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to settle accounts. Do you want to eat anything? I'll bring it to you from the supply and marketing cooperative."
Lu Cheng said, "No, buy something you like."
Lu Haici: "Mom, I want to eat milk candy, shall we buy milk candy?"
Lin Qingqing said generously: "Buy." Then he pushed hard with his feet and the bicycle flew away.
Lu Cheng regretted it a little. He should have said that he liked to eat cakes.
In the supply and marketing cooperative, Director Ma was also waiting for Lin Qingqing. When Yu Xiuyao went to pick up the goods today, she brought back Lin Qingqing's words. She came to settle the June account at noon today, so Director Ma settled Lin Qingqing's account in advance.
Needless to say, this is really a lot of money. However, thanks to Lin Qingqing's blessing, the supply and marketing cooperative has also made a lot of money in the past few days, which has contributed to the finances of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Director Ma." Lin Qingqing brought Lu Haici and walked to Director Ma's office with familiarity. She knocked on the door.
Director Ma looked up and saw Lin Qingqing: "Come in, kids are here too. Our supply and marketing cooperative has some popsicles. Do you want some?"
Lu Haici blinked his eyes: "They are delicious." How could a kid who has eaten popsicles resist the charm of popsicles?
Popsicles have been around since 1950 in China. Now it is 1963, and it has been 13 years.
Even Lin Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little greedy when she heard about popsicles: "Director Ma, can I have two?"
Director Ma laughed: "Sure, this time the popsicles have ice cream. Can you two have ice cream?"
Lin Qingqing: "Okay, ice cream."
Director Ma personally went to get two ice creams: "Come, try it."
As soon as Lin Qingqing got the ice cream, she couldn't wait to take a bite: "It's delicious." She couldn't help but say. Mom, I finally get to eat something that is available in the future. After all, the only thing that can still attract her in this era seems to be ice cream. Apart from this, what other things in this era can interest her.
"It's delicious." Lu Haici's eyes lit up. What kind of delicacy is this? He ate it for the first time, "Mom, this is different from the popsicles I've eaten before." He used to eat sugar popsicles, but now he eats ice cream, which is naturally different. "This is better than before."
Lin said softly: "You are allowed to come once a week in the future." In fact, she also wanted to come once a week, so she used the little kid as an excuse.
"Really?" Lu Haici's eyes were sparkling with joy, "Thank you, Mom."
"You're welcome, but you can only eat it once a week, don't eat more." Lin Qingqing reminded him that eating too much popsicle is not good.
Lu Haici is quite self-disciplined, and he is satisfied as long as he can eat it once a week: "Well, I listen to Mom."
Lin Qingqing rubbed his little face: "Then you go to the side and eat slowly, Mom has to do business with Director Ma."
"Hey." Lu Haici obediently went to sit aside and be a quiet child eating popsicles.
A popsicle is not big, Lin Qingqing quickly finished it, and then talked to Director Ma about business.
"Comrade Lin, this is the account book for the past eight days, take a look." Director Ma pushed the account book to Lin Qingqing.
Lin Qingqing took the account book, and then took out another one. This was the account that Yu Xiuyao reported to her every day. She checked the total weight, and it was correct. In eight days, a total of 1,680 kilograms, according to the profit of 0.065 per kilogram, the total was 109.2 yuan.
In fact, Lin Qingqing herself did not expect to earn so much in eight days. With this calculation, she can still earn about 75 yuan. At the end of the month, it must be more than 200 yuan?
Lin Qingqing experienced the joy of making money.
The account was checked and found to be correct. Lin Qingqing signed and Director Ma paid the money. After the payment, Director Ma asked, "Comrade Lin, we currently have about 200 kilograms of halites every day, and the ingredients are collected from different places. If the halites increase, can you handle it?"
Lin Qingqing said, "I can't handle it, and I don't agree to increase it. If there are too many things, they will have no value."
Director Ma thought about it and it made sense, "Have you ever thought about selling the recipe to our supply and marketing cooperative? This way you can worry less." Director Ma mentioned this matter when they first cooperated, but Lin Qingqing did not agree. Now he mentioned it again, which shows that the supply and marketing cooperative is very interested in the recipe.
Lin Qingqing still refused firmly: "I haven't thought about it for now, but if I think about it in the future, I will definitely consider the supply and marketing cooperative first."
Director Ma was just trying it out, knowing that it would not be easy to succeed. "Then I hope we can continue to cooperate happily."
"Happy cooperation."
Lin Qingqing took the money, and after talking with Director Ma, Lu Haici finished eating the ice cream. Although the little guy had his mouth full of ice cream, he loved to be clean, and wiped it himself with a handkerchief after eating. But when Lin Qingqing approached him, he could still smell the milky fragrance.
Smelling the milky fragrance on Lu Haici, Lin Qingqing suddenly remembered something: "Director Ma, does the supply and marketing cooperative sell milk powder?"
Under normal circumstances, milk powder is in short supply, but it is not impossible to leave one or two cans inside. When Lin Qingqing asked this, Director Ma knew what she meant: "If you have milk powder tickets, I can leave two cans for you next time you come to buy milk powder. If you don't have milk powder tickets, I can only leave them for you if there are defective products next time. If there are no defective products, then it's estimated that it will be a suspense."
Lin Qingqing didn't have milk powder tickets. When she was cleaning up Lu Cheng's iron box before, she didn't see milk powder tickets, otherwise, she wouldn't have waited until now to think of it. "I don't have milk powder tickets, but I have other tickets that can be exchanged. I wonder if you know anyone here who can exchange milk powder tickets?"
Director Ma said: "Then I'll ask you later."
Lin Qingqing said gratefully: "Thank you very much."
"Comrade Lin is too polite." Director Ma was polite to Lin Qingqing, firstly because of their cooperation. Second, it was because it was good to sell Lin Qingqing. After all, Lin Qingqing had brains and skills, and her husband was the deputy head of the group, which meant that she had power and connections. Even if Director Ma didn't need to marry a comrade like this at the moment, it was better to marry him than to have no one. "Comrade Lin, although we don't have milk powder at the moment, we have other defective products. Do you want to take a look?" Today was the first of the month. The supply and marketing cooperative would have goods arriving at the end of every month. After the salesperson sorted the goods, they would be put on sale at the beginning of the month.
Lin Qingqing said, "Okay, what defective products do you have?"
Director Ma said, "There are fabrics, enamel cups..."
The fabric had a problem with dyeing, and there was a spot on the enamel cup where the white enamel was missing, and there were other things. Lin Qingqing saw that there was nothing she needed, so she bought some defective fabrics. Anyway, the fabrics would be used anyway.
Then, I went to the counter with my little one to buy some cakes, candies, biscuits, paper towels, soap and other things. After buying everything, the two of them bought three ice creams and went home satisfied.
