Chapter 160 Drunk



Chapter 160: Drunk

Uncle Jie didn’t work when he was young, but when he had a son, he was relegated to the background in the eyes of old lady Jie, and he had to go to work to earn work points. After all, the family couldn’t afford to support two idle men.

So after the family split up, Uncle Jie continued to work during the autumn harvest, which was nothing.

But Jie Jinkui couldn’t do it. Although he worked before, it was just for show, fishing for three days and drying the nets for two days.

Now he can’t do it anymore. He has to dig corn stalks, and his tender hands have several big blisters in an hour!

He wiped his tears and screamed in pain, which annoyed the team leader and production team leader, so they asked him to break corn.

Breaking corn is a job for women and children.

This guy is not as capable as women and half-grown children! He

crawled through the cornfield, and the leaves pulled his face, neck, arms, and hands, causing burning pain. It was even more painful when he sweated.

He started to cry again.

This doesn't work?

Then go pick cotton!

Picking cotton is a job for women, children, and the elderly!

Is picking cotton easy?

You have to bend over all the time, which really makes your back and waist sore. Moreover, the cotton petals are very hard now, and they will poke your fingers with thorns in a short time, and your fingertips will bleed.

Picking cotton is also a waste, so he can only dig peanuts and sweet potatoes.

This guy is so greedy that he digs peanuts and stuffs them into his mouth!

Every day, he either cries or is scolded and criticized by the team leader. It's really embarrassing.

Jie Jinlan is in the same situation.

She didn't have to go to the fields at home, and was busy with blind dates. She had to find a man who was definitely not worse than Lin Shu's partner, at least to get a salary and eat commercial food.

But isn't it the autumn harvest season now?

Everyone is busy and has no time to help her, and after the division of the family, each family must contribute to the autumn harvest.

Xie Jinkui's wife said that her head was broken and she couldn't go to the fields, so she stayed at home to recuperate or went to the team to do light work, so Xie Jinlan had to go.

Xie Jinlan was also picking cotton.

She could pick cotton, but her hands were also stabbed and bleeding, which was painful.

It was not yet lunchtime, but she couldn't stand it. She heard that Lin Shu's handsome man in military uniform driving a jeep was here, so she immediately made an excuse of having a stomachache and hurried home.

On the way, she met Xie Jinkui.

When Xie Jinkui heard that Lu Shaotang was coming, he wanted to get close to him and ask Lu Shaotang to talk to Secretary Xie to arrange an easy job for him, such as making him the director of public security, or serving as a militiaman in the commune.

Anyway, he doesn't have to work in the fields and can get work points!

Xie Jinlan thought that she was obviously prettier than Lin Shu, younger than Lin Shu, and better than Lin Shu... in every way. Why didn't Lin Shu have to work after marrying a military officer, but she had to work in the fields?

This was unfair!

Not only did she have to find a man who was better than Lin Shu's partner, but she also wanted to do something bad to Lin Shu, so that Lu Shaotang would divorce her.

The brother and sister hurried home and ran into Lu Shaotang who was leaving with his two children in the yard.

Come and stand for a while, let the two kids express their concern on behalf of Lin's mother, naturally they will not stay for a second longer.

Seeing Lu Shaotang's tall, handsome and imposing appearance, Jie Jinlan felt very aggrieved.

Why? We are all women, why is such a good man occupied by Lin Shu?

Why should she suffer?

Her grievances are like the surging Yellow River, rushing forward.

Tiantian and Panpan are the most sensitive, especially when it comes to matters concerning their parents. Jie Jinlan looked at Lu Shaotang with tears in her eyes and aggrieved, and the two kids became alert.

They are still young, of course they don't understand those things of adults, but they know that such eyes are either acting coquettishly or complaining!

Because they are like that.

When Lu Cuicui bullied them when they were little, they would act like a spoiled child and complain to their grandma.

Xie Jinlan was ready, sniffed, and called out, "Brother-in-law." But

Lu Shaotang didn't even look at her. He had already helped his mother-in-law to look after the old lady and had formally said goodbye. He had to leave immediately without stopping. If he was stopped again, it would be an accident, which was not the rhythm he liked.

He was going home to find his wife.

Xie Jinkui also had a big smile on his face; "Hey, brother-in-law is here, don't leave in a hurry, come in and have some tea, and fry some dishes for lunch, so that we brothers can have a couple of drinks."

He stretched his neck and called his wife, "Hurry up, fry some eggs, and kill a chicken..." He remembered that there were no chickens at home, so he said he would go to the neighbor's house to buy one.

Lu Shaotang said in a cold voice: "No need, let's go."

He ignored the slightly dirty hand that Xie Jinkui offered to shake hands with, leaned over slightly, picked up the two kids and hugged them, and strode away.

Xie Jinkui and Xie Jinlan chased to the door, but could only watch his tall back disappear at the intersection.

Xie Jinlan was so aggrieved that she burst into tears.

It wasn't because Lu Shaotang ignored her, but mainly because of the imbalance. Why did the three daughters of the Fourth Aunt's family marry well, but she couldn't find a good man?

If she could marry a rich and powerful man who didn't let her work and could still give her a decent life, then Lu Shaotang would naturally not be a big deal.

But at this moment, Lu Shaotang was the best married man among her sisters that she could see.

She entered the house and saw that Old Lady Jie had placed fruits and snacks on the kang. She reached out and took a pomegranate and began to peel and eat it.

Old Mrs. Xie said gloomily, "That was given to me by my grandson-in-law."

Xie Jinlan pouted, "Grandma, I work so hard, look, my fingers are all rotten, what's wrong with eating a pomegranate?"

Old Mrs. Xie said, "Just find a good man, you can have anything you want?"

Xie Jinlan felt even more wronged. Don't I want to find a good man? Can I find one?

You don't give me good clothes, I wear dirty clothes every day, what can I do?

You don't give me money and time to go to the city, what good man can I find in the dung heap in the countryside?

There is no matchmaker to introduce me, how can I find one myself?

She couldn't help but complain, feeling wronged, "No matter what Grandma Lin Shu did, she found the best husbands for her three granddaughters."

The implication was, you brag about how great you are, how many people you know, how much you love your granddaughters, and how bad Grandma Lin is all day long, but what have you done?

You haven't introduced a single good match to your granddaughters!

You just know how to brag!

How could Grandma Jie not hear her disdainful tone? She

was so angry that she reached out to grab her walking stick to hit her.

Although she used to love her eldest grandson and youngest granddaughter, and was the best to Jie Jinkui and Jie Jinlan, that was just to show her ancestral authority, not to really love people. Isn't the one she loves the most herself?

Now that she broke her hip, she was lying on the kang and couldn't move. She was suffering and uncomfortable, so how could she be used to seeing others jumping around and being so beautiful?

Jie Jinlan was not satisfied that Lin Shu had found a good target, but Old Lady Jie was not satisfied that others were jumping around!

How could Jie Jinlan let her hit her? She turned around and dodged.

Because she was angry that Old Lady Jie wanted to hit her, and she was also angry that Old Lady Jie owed her a good son-in-law, she took the mooncake and ate it.

The fragrant and sweet five-nut mooncake was delicious!

Old Lady Jie didn't expect that she would be so rebellious and dare to run around in front of her. She was so angry that she screamed and cursed, but it was a pity that her hip was broken and she couldn't move casually, and she couldn't hit anyone she wanted to hit.

Seeing her vicious look, Jie Jinlan took the mooncake and pomegranate and ran away.

The two boys of Xie Jinkui had been hiding in the main room to peek at Lu Shaotang and Tiantian Panpan, and when they left, they started to covet the delicious food on the kang.

They didn't dare to move or think before, but now they saw the little girl taking the food and running away, and the grandmother couldn't reach them, so they rushed over, grabbed mooncakes, apples and other things and ran away.

Because they were too anxious, one of the boys fell in front of the kang, and heard the sound of old lady Xie cursing and banging her walking stick, which scared him so much that he peed his pants, thinking he was going to be beaten to death.

As a result, old lady Xie climbed up with her upper body, but her lower body couldn't move, so she couldn't hit him at all.

He immediately became happy, stood up and made faces at Old Lady Jie: "Woo woo, you can't hit me, so you hit the monkey!"

Old Lady Jie was good to her eldest son and eldest grandson, but not to her great-grandson, because she felt that she could not rely on her great-grandson to support her in her old age.

These boys were not close to her, they were all afraid of her, and even hated her, especially since she broke their mother's head!

In a blink of an eye, the two naughty boys robbed Old Lady Jie of all her things.

Old Lady Jie was so angry that she cried loudly on the kang and cursed loudly. She was mean and vicious, and no one dared to enter the house. Old

Lady Jie was so angry that she shouted to her aunt to come over, wanting to beat her to vent her anger.

The aunt was not stupid. Old Lady Jie couldn't move at this time, so of course she hid and pretended not to hear.

Old Lady Jie called Uncle Jie again.

Uncle Jie is not here now, he went out to brag to others, after all, Lu Shaotang brought his child here, everyone is curious, he has to go out to show off?

Although Lu Shaotang didn't say anything to him, nor did he respond to him, he can't help but add fuel to the fire.

Although the yard has not been built yet, Uncle Jie and his wife are not at home.

The couple is busy working every day, and after finishing their work in the team, they sneak to work on the private plot of Lin's mother's family.

After Jie Er and Jie San went home, they also worked hard. The children cooked at home, and the couple went out to earn work points.

The third brother's family had a young child, so they asked the daughter of Jie Er to help cook, and the relationship between the two families became better than before.

In contrast, Uncle Jie and Jie Jinkui were lazy and greedy, and there was even a bossy one on the kang, which was really unbearable to watch.

Old Mrs. Jie saw that her eldest son had not returned, her eldest grandson had hidden, her eldest daughter-in-law deliberately did not serve her, and her youngest granddaughter led her nephews to bully her and steal her things, which made her so angry that she cried loudly.

As a result, she moved too hard and dislocated the wound that had just begun to heal. She was so painful that she banged on the edge of the kang, and the house was filled with dust.

Well, no one went in to see her.

The neighbors heard it but pretended not to hear it, and no one cared.

When she was crying at home after her leg was broken, the old ladies in the neighborhood felt sorry for her and were afraid of ending up in such a situation. They would come to see her and talk to her to cheer her up. They were also afraid that her daughter-in-law would abuse her, so they supported her and were afraid that she would offend her daughter-in-law. They wanted to persuade her to be gentler and treat her daughter-in-law better, and they served her wholeheartedly.

As a result, she not only did not appreciate their kindness, but she was annoyed by them and scolded them for coming to see her and making fun of her, so they scolded them away.

Especially the one who cut her hair, she scolded her so much that her nose was not a nose, her eyes were not eyes, and she refused to see her anymore.

Now she scolded at home, but no one paid any attention to her, and the neighbors sighed.

The old woman who was doing the haircut sighed, "No matter how powerful a person is, if he can't move, he is like meat or chicken on the chopping board, and can only be slaughtered by others."

"She used to be a bully and bullied her daughter-in-law, but now her daughter-in-law doesn't even have to beat her, ignore her or serve her, and she still suffers."

"You said she favored her eldest son and grandson and let them take care of her in her old age? What's the result? When something happened to her, her eldest son and grandson disappeared."

I couldn't walk, and I wanted to go out to complain, but I had no chance.

The eldest son and grandson hid away and pretended not to know, but in fact, didn't they condone all this?

Of course, these kids didn't know, they just sent things to express their concern for their grandmother and mother and went home.

Mid-Autumn Festival is a big festival, and the production team also gave everyone half a day off to go home and celebrate the festival.

Of course, those who don't want to celebrate the festival can still go to the fields to harvest crops, anyway, they can earn work points by working.

At noon, Lin Shu really satisfied the children's little appetite and grilled skewers for them.

She mixed the various seasonings she had collected according to needs, and rubbed and marinated the mutton.

Although the time was short, Chen Yanming was very strong and rubbed it very well.

Then cut it into pieces with a snap, and then start to skewer it with bamboo and wooden sticks.

These sticks were all collected by Lin Shu consciously. She collected them when she saw that they were almost done, and she would use a knife to trim them when she was cooking or lighting a fire.

Farmers don't care about so many things, they just want to reuse them.

Ding Guowen also said, "Aunt, if you roast the mutton, the mutton fat will be wasted. Why not stew it? It will be

more fragrant when stewed. I love stewed mutton with radish." It smells so delicious with a mouthful of mutton fat.

Unfortunately, Lin Shu didn't listen to him. Her son wanted to eat barbecue skewers, so she made barbecue skewers for him.

There is still some mutton left, so we can make braised lamb later.

The two sons were busy helping to thread the skewers, and the joy of participating was incomparable.

In addition to the barbecue skewers, Lin Shu also stewed a pot of pig's trotters. Of course, we couldn't just eat pig's trotters. With so many people, no matter how big the pig's trotters were, they wouldn't be enough. Of course, we had to add more vegetables.

Mushrooms, potatoes, chestnuts, beans, anything that doesn't make the food smell bad can be added.

This is the charm of stew! The

aroma of the grilled lamb skewers is so overbearing, the lamb fat explodes and steams on the charcoal fire, and the aroma can really be smelled for ten miles in the countryside without the obstruction of buildings!

Many children went to the alley and stood at the door of Lu's house, scratching their fingers.

Some adults passing by were jealous and couldn't help but say a few sarcastic words.

This is how it is these days. Everyone is poor. If a family is richer and always eats delicious food, it is like a crime and will be easily hated.

Even if Lu's family is popular, it is not okay. Others can only eat melons and dried melons to be full, but you eat meat at home? Although people

with good relationships can be greedy, they are embarrassed to ask for it. After all, there is only a little meat, and there are so many people in the family. They can't even eat it themselves, how can they share it with us?

But Lin Shu took the children's feelings into consideration.

Neighbors and families with good relationships with her did not give it for free, but exchanged it for 1.2 cents or two eggs for a string.

Each family was limited to one string.

There are eight pieces of meat as big as the belly of a finger on a skewer, five lean and three fat.

This way she doesn't lose out, and others can also taste the flavor of mutton skewers, and no one needs to feel that they owe anyone anything.

Hearing that Lin Shu is willing to exchange meat for the child to taste it, Aunt Li, Wang Pozi and others happily took eggs and rushed in. The family who was originally not very happy also hurriedly took eggs to exchange.

Isn't it just two eggs? Who can't afford it?

Give me ten eggs!

Ah, they limit the number, yes, yes, it's understandable, there are so many people.

Didn't you see the Lu family, a good family, there are a lot of people in the yard.

The result is that those who have a good relationship can exchange eggs for mutton skewers, while those who have a general relationship can't even exchange.

At noon on the Mid-Autumn Festival, many families exchanged two eggs for a skewer of mutton, and went home to share a bite of meat with the elderly and children.

It smells so good!

The meat is sprinkled with chili powder, pepper powder, and cumin powder. They don't know what cumin and pepper are, but they feel a strange aroma that they have never smelled before, which is very suitable for mutton!

Take a bite carefully, chew it in your mouth, it's really full of oil!

It smells so good!

Unfortunately, I can't taste anything after one piece, and I don't want to eat it anymore. If

there are few children in the family, each child can eat two or three pieces, and that's a lot of fun.

And then there was the life, people didn't just eat grilled skewers, they took the mutton off and put it in the pot, added water and vegetables, and then stewed it in another pot!

A skewer of mutton weighed more than half an ounce, and the whole family enjoyed a delicious stew.

Panpan and Tiantian's little friends, such as Huahua, Huzi, and Honghong, could be exchanged for two skewers.

Because there was still the friendship of little friends, it was different from the crowd.

Chang Xiaogang cried at home because he was hungry, and asked his parents and grandma to exchange him for mutton skewers.

Old Chang had a gloomy face like June, which changed at any time.

It was really annoying! Since the quarrel with the Lu family, life has become more and more unsatisfactory.

Not only did she have to smell the meat from their house every day, but she also had to endure the wrath of the children, who complained that they didn't eat meat at home. Seeing

that Wang Pozi, who used to be close to her family, was now alienated from her family and was close to the Lu family, eating meat and drinking soup with the Lu family, the old Chang Pozi was jealous and angry.

"She is so superficial, but she is fawning on you just by giving her two pieces of meat."

"It's half a sheep, but you are reluctant to share it and let people exchange it. You are really stingy. The richer you are, the more stingy you are."

After all, she only dared to say it at home, and didn't dare to say it outside, for fear of being scolded or beaten by Fang Dihua.

Although it was grilled meat skewers, the Lu family couldn't be full by eating meat skewers, especially the adults were reluctant to eat it, and at most they would eat one skewer.

Lin Shu also asked her eldest brother-in-law to take some to share with the technicians, not much, only two skewers per person.

The technicians all came from the city. They had wages and food, so they were naturally better off than the farmers. They didn't eat for free, and they all gave money.

You have to give.

Huang Shaoye boasted to his brother-in-law, "Mr. Hou, our sister-in-law's cooking is even better than the barbecue skewers I had in the Qizhou Hotel."

Hou Jianwen said proudly and modestly, "You haven't eaten it for a long time, you are greedy."

He also admitted that the third sister's cooking was really outstanding!

In order to facilitate the family to talk, the dining table was set up in the new house today.

The house is big, with a table on the kang for the elderly and children, and a table in front of the kang for men and women who drink.

The children ate the skewers and the adults ate the stews.

Baoer couldn't bite the lamb skewers. He didn't like the taste of lamb, so Lin Shu gave him a bone to chew.

Although Panpan and Tiantian were craving for mutton skewers, they were tired after eating two skewers. They were busy picking vegetables and finally chewing on a bone. As

the two kids were chewing, Panpan handed the bone in his hand to Chen Yanming and said, "Godfather, look, I chewed out a foot."

He even jumped down and compared the bone with his own foot.

At this time, Tiantian took another piece and put it together, like a pair of small feet.

The two of them stopped eating, cleaned the bones, and then went to wash the bones and put them on the windowsill as their feet.

Ding Guowen looked at them and whispered to Lu An beside him: "My aunt is used to children."

Lu An: "My third aunt is also very good to us."

Ding Guohua glanced at his brother and signaled him not to talk nonsense.

Ding Guohua's task this time was to talk to his uncle about his work.

Because he was already working, he did not sit at the children's table but with the adults, and he could also drink a few cups.

He was very attentive in pouring wine for his grandmother, grandfather, eldest uncle, younger uncle and others, and naturally did not leave out Hou Jianwen.

They were all capable, and he was willing to praise them.

Lin Shu and her elder sister wanted to help serve the dishes, so they sat at the table below. Sister-in-law Lu could drink two cups, so she sat next to brother Lu.

Ding Guohua respectfully poured wine for Lin Shu and said with a smile: "Aunt, you and your elder uncle have a good alcohol tolerance. I can see that your aunt can drink a few cups too."

He was not so respectful to the original owner before, but his attitude changed now because of Lu Shaotang and Lin Shu's own ability.

Now Lin Shu is a famous person in the brigade, and she can be registered in the commune. Director Qin often praises her, and even in the county, you can hear the leaders praising her.

At first, he thought that everyone praised Lin Shu because of his uncle, but later he found out that it was not the case.

In fact, when his uncle was in the county revolutionary committee, especially in the economic, political and educational fields, no one knew him. He was mentioned because he was handsome and bold!

Many people still talk about the time when he was chased by people at the train station to introduce him to a girl. They say that the young man got off the train in a military uniform and attracted everyone's attention.

But he was always mentioned in the People's Armed Forces Department and the Military Service Department. After all, young people are always promoted.

In short, Ding Guohua knew that his uncle had a bright future. Although his uncle's mother cooked at home all day, she had a good husband and a good brother-in-law. Both brothers-in-law were capable and willing to help her.

So it was natural for him to praise his younger sister-in-law.

Ding Guohua was taught by his grandfather, and as long as they want to flatter someone sincerely, it will definitely make the other person feel comfortable.

Didn’t you see that Big Brother Lu and Lu Hehuan were both praising Guohua for being more and more capable? Second Sister-in-law Lu even looked flattered because Ding Guohua took the initiative to pour her a glass of wine.

Big Sister-in-law Lu didn’t care. She had no interest in men other than Big Brother Lu, and she didn’t feel anything when others flattered her.

Everyone was having a great time at the table, and Old Man Lu and Fang Dihua were especially happy.

The family hadn’t been so harmonious for many years.

Before, the third son was always away from home, the eldest son was lazy and ate a lot, the third son’s wife was always embarrassed, and the young lady had to fall in love with a divorced man.

Especially when the third son died last year, the old couple looked visibly old and haggard, and they felt as if the sky was about to fall.

Now that the third son is back, that day is lifted up by his tall stature.

Now the old couple feels that their home is really spacious.

Of course, not everything goes as planned, but the old couple is content. The third son returned safely, the third son's wife is getting better and better, the eldest son's wife drives a tractor, the eldest son is an accountant and takes orders, the second son and his wife work in a perfume factory... Even

if the young lady's family is not happy, it doesn't matter.

The old couple is very satisfied!

Because they are happy, they drink a few more glasses, and they are a little drunk.

Lin Shu wanted to get pancakes and steamed buns for everyone. Seeing that her cheeks were rosy and her eyes were as charming as autumn water, Sister Lin smiled and said, "I'll get it."

Lin Shu looked at her rosy cheeks. In fact, she only drank three cups of wine. Lu Shaotang didn't dare to let her drink more.

She found that Lu Shaotang's face was more red than hers. The corners of his eyes were swept with bright pink. His originally dark and deep eyes were now tearful.

How could he, a rough old man, be so handsome?

She whispered, "Do you want some sobering soup?"

Her voice was a little low. Lu Shaotang tilted his head towards her and moved closer to her. "Hmm?"

Lin Shu said it again.

Lu Shaotang held her hand, and held it in his broad palm, "I'm not drunk."

Ding Guohua, who was standing next to him, immediately blushed and his heart beat fast. His uncle looked so serious, but he didn't expect... it would be like this.

He wanted to tell Lu Shaotang about his work, but he didn't know how to start.

After lunch, Father Lu and Fang Dihua drank too much, so Brother Lu and his wife helped the old couple back to the kang in the east room and let them lie down for a while.

Fang Dihua: "Incense factory..."

Brother Lu: "Mom, I won't go out these two days, I'll take over your shift."

Fang Dihua was relieved, the eldest brother was now reliable.

Second Brother Lu and Brother Lu continued to work in the incense room.

The technicians were all busy on the northwest slope, so Hou Jianwen naturally wanted to go there too. Chen Yanming was curious and wanted to go over to see as well.

Lu Shaotang wanted to flirt with his wife, but she wouldn't do what he wanted in broad daylight, so he went there to see the design of his brother-in

-law and his friends. Although Lu Shaotang was a soldier, he and Chen Yanming were from special branches of the military, and they were familiar with all kinds of knowledge. The more they knew, the easier their work would be.

You never know when you will need the knowledge you learned from somewhere.

Seeing his uncle going there, Ding Guohua changed his plan to leave after dinner and took his two younger brothers to take a look.

Ding Guowen and Ding Guowu happened to want to go there to play, so Hou Bo, Lu An and other children went there again.

Hou Jianwen originally thought that Lu Shaotang and Chen Yanming were just here to see the excitement, but they actually asked about the working principle.

"It doesn't use oil or electricity, and it can pump water from a low place to a high place, with a pumping distance of about ten meters?"

"Yes, it looks like water power."

"How can we ensure that the water turbine pump does not rust and corrode under the water power?"

Hou Jianwen clapped his hands, "Third brother-in-law, this is a good question, and rust prevention is the top priority."

He talked about several ways to prevent rust on water turbine pumps. In addition to painting, there are also electroplating and other methods, and regular maintenance and inspection are also required.

Hou Bo, Lu Ping, Tiantian and Panpan listened with great interest.

Lu An, Ding Guowen and Ding Guowu listened with great interest.

Ding Guohua did ask about the details, because he was now a liaison between the commune and the county. Knowing more about the brigade would help him with his work.

Seeing that Lu Shaotang was free, he changed the topic to his work.

Lu Shaotang rarely chatted with others, and always got to the heart of the matter. Ding Guohua's beating around the bush was useless in front of him.

He asked directly, "Do you want to go to the People's Armed Forces Department and the Military Service Department?"

Ding Guohua couldn't laugh when facing Lu Shaotang. Although Lu Shaotang didn't look cold but was rather friendly, he just felt that he didn't dare to laugh and joke in front of his uncle. He subconsciously clamped his buttocks tightly, straightened his back, and was very careful, just like in military training at school.

He said, "I have admired soldiers since I was a child, but my grandfather said that I am not strong enough and will be sent back after serving in the army for a year at most. It is better to go to the military service department or the people's armed forces department, so that I can also contribute to the country."

Contributing to the country is a nice thing to say, but in reality, you still have to arrange a job.

Lu Shaotang: "It's boring for you to work in the People

's Armed Forces Department and the Military Service Department when you are young. You can gain experience in the Revolutionary Committee and make a name for yourself. You can be promoted in one or two years and then go back to a more suitable department." Lu Shaotang didn't give him a perfunctory answer. The People's Armed Forces Department and the Military Service Department of the county and similar departments of the commune are responsible for managing the militia.

In the eyes of many people, this is the pension department.

In his judgment, the militia companies will be gradually abolished.

Now that large-scale wars are becoming less and less, the country is already planning to reduce its military, and the establishment of militia companies will continue to shrink.

However, the policy of focusing on food will not change. To put it in a broader sense, the economy still needs to develop.

From some of the intelligence they received, we can also get the following information: there is a huge gap between domestic and foreign economic strength, and the domestic economy must be developed. In the future, the departments of counties and communes that deal with the people below will become more and more important.

Since Ding Guohua is not suitable for military service, he should focus on doing these things well.

Lu Shaotang will not use connections, but if he is capable and willing to endure hardships, he should be promoted in two years. If he is excluded and not promoted because of lack of connections, then he is willing to give him a heads-up.

Before Ding Guohua has proven his ability, Lu Shaotang will not speak for him.

He never fights a battle without confidence, and the same goes for recommending talents.

You have to be a talent for him to help you. If you are not a talent but just a relative, it will be useless.

He has so many relatives, he would not recommend his nephews or his own children when they are not capable of doing the job. However

, Ding Guohua felt that this was his third uncle's promise to speak for him.

It's just that... two years is a bit slow.

According to their expectations, they hoped that his third uncle would help to say hello now, so that he could be promoted to a permanent employee after a trial period of three months at most.

But it is better to agree than not.

After all, if there is no relationship, it will take three to five years to be promoted.

After the men all go to work, the house will be empty again.

Lin Shu and her elder sister drank tea in the house, enjoying the rare leisure time. The hawthorn water she made herself helped digestion.

Elder sister Lin couldn't sit still, so she helped her wash the dishes and pots.

Lin Shu: "Big sister, you keep it there."

Big sister Lin: "If I keep it there, then you will have to do it, right?"

Lin Shu said with a smile: "Lu Shaotang will do it. He will help me wash the dishes and pots whenever he is at home."

Lin Shu doesn't like to wash dishes. It's ok if there is no oil in the dishes, but if there is oil, she doesn't like to wash the dishes. Usually Fang Dihua will do it for her.

Lin Shu sorted out another handbag that Lu Shaotang brought back, and there was a pair of leather shoes in it. There were

very few styles of leather shoes at that time, just cute and clumsy round toes, thick heels, and cross-straps, and they would also be matched with a pair of white socks.

But the pair that Lu Shaotang bought turned out to be pointed round toes, medium and thin heels, and overall a little sexy.

It is not appropriate to wear leather shoes in the mud in the countryside, but you can wear them in the city.

Lin Shu was very happy and did not think that Lu Shaotang was wasting money and buying things without discussing anything with her.

She put on her shoes and walked around the house clattering for her elder sister to see. Elder

sister Lin praised: "Brother-in-law is really good at shopping, the size is just right."

Lin Shu thought to herself: That's not true, he knew the size just by holding her feet with his big hands.

Maybe she drank a little wine at noon, she thought mischievously that if she wore leather shoes and a gauze scarf at night, she wondered if Lu Shaotang would have a nosebleed.

Oh, her face turned red when she thought about it, but she decided not to do anything.

It was so embarrassing.
