It was noon, and the two did not walk far, so they found a state-owned restaurant nearby, sat down and had a meal.
After sitting down, Lu Qiu took the initiative to speak: "Second sister didn't answer just now, how have you been these years?"
Lu Xia nodded, "Not bad!"
Seeing this, Lu Qiu hesitated and continued: "I heard that you were married before..."
Lu Xia smiled and said, "Indeed, we are married. My husband and I have returned to the city together."
“Oh, I see!”
Lu Qiu didn't ask any more questions. She could see that Lu Xia didn't want to say anything, but she knew in her heart that the person Lu Xia married was definitely not a country boy as her family thought, and from the way she dressed, it could be seen that she was living a good life.
So she began to take the initiative to talk to her about what had happened in the Lu family in recent years.
"My parents have been doing OK these years. My dad still works in the warehouse, but because he's old, he fell while moving goods. Although it wasn't serious, the factory still transferred him to the warehouse as a security guard. It's a lot easier, but sometimes he has to work the night shift.
Last year, Lu Dong graduated from high school. In order to avoid going to the countryside, his mother gave her job to Lu Dong, so he now works in a textile factory. But because all textile workers are women, he was also transferred to the warehouse as a loader, which makes him closer to his father. "
...
...
Lu Xia nodded, "What about you?"
Lu Qiu and Lu Dong are the same age, both 18 this year. Lu Dong took over Lu's mother's job, and from what she said, Lu's father did not give her the job.
But seeing as she's living well now, she probably hasn't gone to the countryside, right?
Lu Qiu smiled when she asked, "I didn't go to high school. After graduating from junior high school, I was admitted to a technical secondary school. This year is my last semester. I will be assigned a job after graduation."
When Lu Xia heard this, he looked at her in surprise, then nodded, "That's great."
Isn’t that good? In the past few years, only workers, peasants and soldiers could go to university with recommendations, so technical secondary school was a very good academic qualification, and it was very difficult to get into. Many people went to high school because they couldn’t get into technical secondary school. Moreover, after graduating from technical secondary school, they were guaranteed a job, which was really a great thing!
The original owner also wanted to take the exam and could have passed, but because Lu Chun had a fight with her parents, and her family didn’t know her grades and didn’t want her to go to school, she ended up not taking the exam at all and could only accompany Lu Chun to high school.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qiu quietly passed the entrance exam for a technical secondary school. It can only be said that her sister is indeed extraordinary.
Lu Qiu laughed exaggeratedly when he heard her. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were full of confidence.
"It's OK. Actually, I wanted to apply to nursing school, but I didn't pass. So I went to a normal technical secondary school. I'll probably be a teacher after graduation."
Lu Xia nodded, "It's good, the teacher's job is easy."
Then Lu Qiu continued: "As for the eldest sister, she just gave birth to her third child recently, both girls. Because she failed to give birth to a son, she has not lived well in her husband's family these years.
She used to have support from our family, and she lived on her own with her brother-in-law. But ever since mom gave her job to Lu Dong, she has little money and can no longer help my eldest sister.
The eldest sister came back home to make trouble, but over the years, everyone except her mother's family was annoyed by her and was too lazy to care, so she had to move back and live with her mother-in-law and her family.
But because her family didn’t care about her, she wasn’t living well. She recently gave birth to a daughter, and her mother told her that her mother-in-law asked her to work before she finished her confinement.”
At this point, Lu Qiu asked Lu Xia again, "By the way, second sister, do you have a child now?"
Lu Xia nodded, "Yes, he's three years old!"
"Boy or girl?"
Lu Xia glanced at her and said, "Boy."
Lu Qiu was surprised. Seeing Lu Xia become so beautiful and still looking like a young girl, she never expected that she was already the mother of a three-year-old child.
Suddenly I felt envious, "Then you must be living a happy life, second sister."
Lu Xia smiled and said, that was indeed the case, but she didn’t say much to her.
Lu Qiu didn't ask any more questions.
After that, the two of them ate in silence.
