Yu Xiuyao believed in Lin Qingqing very much. She also thought that Lin Qingqing was very capable. When she heard from Lin Qingqing that her daughter was going to college, she was in a trance for a long time. In the past, she had never thought about this. She thought that her daughter would graduate from a technical secondary school, then find a job, and then get married in peace and stability. But now, after hearing what Lin Qingqing said, she suddenly thought, yes, college students are so precious nowadays. If her daughter can get into college, it will be a great honor for their Qin family. Besides, the family doesn't need their daughter to make money, so why not let her go to college.
So, Yu Xiuyao had a new idea.
After Lin Qingqing left Yu Xiuyao, she went home. Lu Haici was playing at home. When she saw her mother coming back, she asked happily, "Mom, are you off work? We haven't eaten yet. Why are you off work?"
Lin Qingqing said, "I'm not off work yet. Mom has to go out to do some work. Come back home and ride your bike. You just play at home. When Mom comes back, we can go out for dinner together."
Lu Haici said obediently: "Okay, I'll wait for mom at home."
"You are so good, Lu Haici. Since you are so good, I will reward you with a gift when your mother comes back." Lin Qingqing planned to give the big tiger panties to Lu Haici in advance to make him happy.
"Really? What gift?" Lu Haici asked excitedly. Not to mention children, even adults have a poor resistance to gifts, let alone a five-year-old child.
“It’s a secret.”
Lin Qingqing rode away on her bicycle. Lu Haici stood at the gate of the yard and watched his mother leave. His heart was pounding. He really wanted to know what gift his mother gave him.
Ji Yang woke up from his nap and went out to play with Lu Haici. Seeing Lu Haici standing at the gate of his yard, he ran over curiously and asked, "Lu Haici, what are you doing here? Playing in the mud?"
Lu Haici said: "I don't play with mud. My mother said that mud is dirty and children can't play with mud."
"Oh. Then what are you doing here?" Ji Yang asked anxiously.
"My mother just rode her bicycle out to do some work..." Lu Haici said, "My mother said that I have been very good recently, and she will give me a gift as a reward when she comes back. I was wondering what gift my mother will give me. Ji Yang, what gift do you think my mother will prepare for me?"
"Hmm..." Ji Yang thought for a moment, "Is it food? Auntie often makes snacks for you, so I guess it's snacks."
"Yeah." Lu Haici thought to himself that it was just a snack.
"Lu Haici, let's go inside and play, it's so hot outside." Ji Yang urged.
Lu Haici: "Okay."
So, the two of them walked into the house hand in hand.
Lin Qingqing rode her bicycle to the carpenter's house. The carpenter's wife saw Lin Qingqing and said enthusiastically, "Comrade Lin is here. Come in and sit down. I'll pour you some tea."
"No, no, auntie. I'm here to do something and I'm in a hurry, so I won't drink tea." Lin Qingqing said hurriedly. She was embarrassed to trouble others.
When the carpenter's wife heard this, she hurriedly said, "It's important to do business. Are you here to do business with us?"
Lin Qingqing: "Yes. Do you remember some time ago, I came here to inquire about the fields and barren hills around our troops? Now the documents from the capital have come down, and the county government has agreed to requisition those fields and barren hills for our troops, so I would like to ask the old experts here to help me see how to separate the fields and barren hills. At the same time, I want to divide them into planting and breeding, and I also need the old experts to help me set up the template of the farm..."
The carpenter's wife knew this was a big deal. Comrade Lin was really amazing. "Then who are you going to look for, Comrade Lin?"
Lin Qingqing said, "I want to ask the captain for help. You see, if I ask him for a favor, I will treat everyone to a meal, or give everyone a subsidy according to work points. Which one do you think is better, auntie?"
The carpenter's wife said, "Let's not use the subsidy. It would be better to treat everyone to a meal."
Lin Qingqing: "Then I will bring the dishes to your house and ask you to cook. After all, it is not easy for them to enter the army."
"Of course, that's no problem." The carpenter's wife agreed readily. There is a tacit rule these days that whoever cooks at someone's house, the leftover food and oil belong to the other family. Of course, the carpenter's wife didn't mean to take advantage of this. She really wanted to make friends with Lin Qingqing. And since she had known Lin Qingqing for a while, she felt that this comrade was a good person. He was not as arrogant as the average person, looking at others with their butts as their eyes.
Lin Qingqing was relieved when she heard the carpenter's wife agree: "Then I will go find the team leader now." She had talked to the team leader before when she came to inquire about the fields, barren hills and planting, so she was familiar with him.
"I'll go with you."
The team leader is naturally in the fields, and only people like the carpenter's wife, who are in poor health and need to take care of their health all year round, do not go to work.
The carpenter's wife and Lin Qingqing came to the field. The team leader saw them at a glance. He stood up and went to the bank. When Lin Qingqing came over, the team leader asked, "Why is Comrade Lin here today?"
"Hello, Captain." Lin Qingqing said, "It's like this, the county government has agreed..." Lin Qingqing repeated the matter of the fields and barren hills, "I now need to plan out the fields and barren hills, and then distinguish the planting and breeding areas, so I need your help to go to the site to take a look, and then sort out the divisions."
The captain said, "That's no problem. When do you need me to come over?"
Lin Qingqing: "When is convenient for you?"
The captain said: "Then I'll come over tomorrow morning. It's almost dinner time now, and I probably won't be able to see all the fields and barren hills. What do you think?" The captain was very happy to be able to do something for the army.
Lin Qingqing said gratefully: "Thank you, Captain."
After talking with the captain, Lin Qingqing left.
When she returned to the army, it was almost time to get off work. She went to the office and reported today's events to Hong Jun. At the same time, she heard about the dinner invitation: "Can this part of the money be reimbursed when the time comes?"
Hong Jun: "It can be reimbursed. Please write an application first. After I approve it, you can take it to Political Commissar Qu for signature. Then after Political Commissar Qu signs it, you can come to me to pay the fee. I have departmental liquidity here."
Lin Qingqing said: "That's great."
After she talked with Hong Jun for a while, she left work.
Lin Qingqing's bicycle was still under the office entrance, so after get off work, she rode her bicycle directly to Lu Cheng's place. Along the way, she attracted countless eyes. It happened to be after get off work, and usually no one rode a bicycle here, how could it not attract people
But there are also bicycles here, and some leaders need to ride bicycles when they go out to do business.
Lin Qingqing rode to Lu Cheng and shouted, "Captain Lu, get in the car."
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows: "You give me a ride?"
Lin Qingqing said: "Yes, you can jump out of the car, right?"
Lu Cheng: "..." Is this looking down on him? He trotted a few steps and then jumped on the bike. It was the first time for him to jump on a lesbian's bike. This feeling was very strange. He felt that everyone around him was looking at him. Not only that, sitting on the bike, he didn't know where to put his hands. Normally, the person sitting behind would definitely hold the bike seat with his hands. But the problem was that Lin Qingqing was sitting on it, and he was afraid that his hands would touch her butt.
Thinking of this, Lu Cheng blushed a little, "Why don't I ride the bike?" he asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Lin Qingqing thought he was concerned about her tiredness, so she said, "No need, I'm carrying you pretty steadily, right?"
Lu Cheng: "..." He simply turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window, "Why did you ride a bike today? Did you go out just now?"
Lin Qingqing: "Yes..."
The two walked away as they talked. Many people were looking at them from behind.
"This is youth." Someone couldn't help but say.
"This is a newlywed." Someone corrected, "Lu Cheng has only been married for two months, so it's still the honeymoon period. It must be good for a young couple. We were all young once." In fact, all of them are older than Lu Cheng and Lin Qingqing combined. Looking at the couple getting along so happily, they just feel that it's great to be young, and that the future of their motherland will get better and better.
"That's right. One is young and promising, and the other is a woman who is as capable as any man. These two are a perfect match."
"I think Lu Cheng is an old cow eating young grass, and he is not worthy of our Comrade Xiao Lin."
"Yes, yes, yes. Comrade Xiao Lin is an active member of our logistics department. If Lu Cheng bullies her, our logistics department will not let Lu Cheng go."
"Hahaha... Tell this to Lu Cheng, and Lu Chengbao will tell you who will not let anyone go."
"Go away, savage. I never use my hands when I can use my mouth."
A group of leaders were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was good.
However, Lu Cheng didn't feel very good at the moment. He was surrounded by countless people on his way from the army to the cafeteria, and most of them were his comrades who looked at him with ridicule, treating him as a person with a disability.
Lu Cheng thought that if he wasn't thick-skinned, he wouldn't be able to sit here calmly.
As soon as the bicycle arrived at the cafeteria entrance, Lu Chengji quickly jumped off the bike: "I'll go grab a seat first." Then he went in as if escaping.
Lin Qingqing didn't have any idea, but wouldn't Lu Haici occupy a position? What position would Lu Cheng occupy
Lu Haici was looking at the entrance of the cafeteria, and when he saw his father coming in, his eyes lit up. But he looked past his father and didn't see his mother. Lu Haici jumped off the stool and ran towards Lu Cheng.
"What are you doing here? Go back and sit down." Lu Cheng said.
Lu Haici ran to Lu Cheng and raised his little head to look at him: "Dad, where's Mom? Hasn't she gone out to do some work and hasn't come back yet?"
Lu Cheng: "I'm back, putting my bike outside."
"Oh." Lu Haici got the answer, and then ran outside. When he ran to the door, he saw his mother coming over. "Mom..." Lu Haici shouted loudly, waving at his mother.
Lin Qingqing asked with amusement: "Why are you at the door? Didn't you see your father?"
Lu Haici stepped forward, took her hand, and held her hand: "I saw it, Dad went in, I came to wait for Mom. Mom, have you finished your business?"
Lin Qingqing felt very touched after hearing this: "It's done, it went very smoothly. You can go to the fields with your mother tomorrow. Do you want to go?" Such a warm-hearted child will definitely be a warm-hearted man in the future. When she thought that the warm-hearted man Lu Haici would get married in the future, she suddenly felt a little sour in her heart.
Lin Qingqing felt that she was doomed. Would she be like other mothers-in-law and start to think that her daughter-in-law was a bad person who took her son away? No, no, her daughter-in-law was someone who could replace her and accompany her son for the rest of his life.
"Can I go?" Lu Haici asked excitedly.
Lin Qingqing: “Of course.” She let the children run around in the fields by themselves while she talked about her business, without interfering with each other.
Lu Cheng watched the mother and son walking and talking towards him, and felt that they were a bit too much and didn't take his existence seriously at all. But... he could only be the punching bag.
After Lin Qingqing sat down, Lu Cheng asked about the plan for the fields and barren hills: "… How is it going? What stage has it reached now?"
Speaking of this, Lin Qingqing was naturally full of interest. She told her what happened today: "... What do you think of my action of promoting Qin Ming's grandmother to be the director of the Military Wives Committee?"
Lu Cheng praised: "She is really smart. Her status and prestige are very suitable."
Lin Qingqing also felt that she had made a very smart move: "Yes, now that she has become the director of the Military Wives Committee, I feel much more relaxed. She is a strong person and likes to be a manager, so I am the biggest beneficiary of this matter."
Lu Haici ate his meal in a depressed mood. His dad was so annoying. He didn't even eat his meal properly. Children all knew that they shouldn't talk while eating.
Lu Cheng glanced at his son and said, "Pah, you're the only one who can say that? Can't I?"
Lu Haici didn't know about his father's little tricks, but after dinner, Lu Haici gave his father a fatal blow.
Just like every time after dinner, Lu Haici held his parents' hands and walked unsteadily in the middle. "Mom, you said you would give me a gift today, what is it?"
Lu Cheng's ears moved.
Lin Qingqing: "I can't tell you. You'll know when you get home."
Lu Haici was a little discouraged: "Okay then..." He dragged his hands for a little while, then looked at his father, "Dad, what gift do you think Mom will give me?"
Lu Cheng, who wanted to hit someone, snorted coldly: "Why did your mother give you a gift? What good things did you do today?"
Lu Haici shook his head: "No, but my mother said that I am very good now, so she wants to give me a gift."
Lu Cheng, who was very well behaved but had no gifts, looked at Lin Qingqing: "Why is he so well behaved this month? He is no different from before."
Lin Qingqing disagreed with this: "This month, Lu Haici went to get food every day at noon and in the evening to reserve a seat early. Such a well-behaved child is unique in the world."
When Lu Haici heard this, his ears turned red. He smiled and his mother said that he was a unique child in the world.
Lu Cheng: "... This is what he should do."
Lin Qingqing said: "He did what he should do, which means he is obedient. We cannot ignore his efforts just because some things are what he should do. Comrade Lu Cheng, let me give you an example and then you answer me."
Lu Cheng: "Go ahead." He was a little scared. If he had known, he wouldn't have said it. What if he didn't answer well and made her angry
Lin Qingqing asked: "A couple, the man is the breadwinner and the woman is the homemaker. The man is out there earning money to support the family, while the woman is at home taking care of the children and doing housework. Do you think this is what she should do?"
"This..." Lu Cheng felt a chill on his neck, "I think it depends on the family situation. If the family conditions are not good, this is what a woman should do." He didn't dare to lie to her, "But, if a woman is out earning money to support the family, then taking care of the children and cleaning the house should be done by the man. What I mean is, only when two people work together can we take care of the family. I understand what you mean, this is what a woman should do, and she did it. A man cannot ignore a woman's contribution just because it is a woman's job. Her contribution may not be making money, but taking care of the children takes more energy and effort than a man making money." Lu Cheng is not a male chauvinist, of course he also has traditional ideas.
Whether it is a man or a woman, if only one person has a job to earn money to support the family, then the responsibility of taking care of the family will naturally fall on the other person. However, when the man comes home from get off work, he should also help the woman with housework.
Lin nodded gently: "So, the nature is the same as Lu Haici. We can't ignore the efforts of some people just because we think it's their due. Whether it's a woman's due to take care of the family or a man's due to earn money to support the family, earning money is hard, and taking care of the family is also hard. They are all making efforts and deserve to be recognized."
"You're right." Lu Cheng agreed with what she said. "However, if it were me, I would earn money outside and I wouldn't let her stay at home to take care of the children and clean the house. I could hire a nanny."
Lin glanced at him lightly: "Remember the ten years of great difficulties I told you about?" Do you still want to hire a nanny by then
Lu Cheng pursed his lips: "Then I will get up early every day, do the physical work, and share the housework with her. I will educate the child in my free time, and ask him to be well behaved and not tire his mother out." He really thought so and was definitely not just talking.
In short, Lu Cheng felt that he might be finished.
Lu Cheng looked at Lin Qingqing carefully. He was a little worried, and his heart was pounding. He didn't know what the answer she was satisfied with was, nor did he know how men and women would get along equally in the future world. "Did I... say something wrong?" He was a little worried when he saw that Lin Qingqing hadn't answered.
"No." Lin said gently, because she also believed that he would do what he said.
"Are you really not wrong?" Lu Cheng asked uncertainly again.
"Really." Lin smiled gently, "Lu Cheng, you are a great person. You respect women very much. I like people who respect women."
Lu Cheng looked at her and was relieved to see that the smile in her eyes was real. However, he recalled her words carefully again. She liked people who respected women. So...
Lu Cheng didn't dare to think too much.
After returning home, Lu Haici became Lin Qingqing's follower. He didn't even take a shower, but just kept following his mother. He wanted to know and see his mother's gift.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll get it for you now." Lin Qingqing was helpless. She just went to the room and took out the ready-made big tiger panties from the chest of drawers. However, when she took it, Lu Haici followed her in. "Here, your gift." Lin Qingqing turned around and almost bumped into Lu Haici.
Lu Haici took it and looked at it. It was a white ribbon with a big tiger embroidered on it with yellow thread. It was obviously different from the big tiger he saw in the zoo, but it looked very much like a big tiger.
Cartoon animals look alike no matter how you look at them.
"Wow..." Lu Haici looked at the panties with sparkling eyes, "Mom, these are panties, the same as Ji Yang's little yellow chicken panties." He liked them so much, he finally had the same panties as Ji Yang. But his panties were better looking, they were big tigers. "Mom, can I wear them after I take a shower today?"
Lin Qingqing said: "No, wash it tonight and wear it tomorrow."
"Then I'll go wash now." Lu Haici ran out impatiently.
Lu Haici first took a wooden basin, then put his panties into the basin, and then he added some water to wet the panties. He also used soap carefully, as he wanted to make the panties smell good.
Lu Haici had washed clothes for Big Tiger's panties many times, so he was very skilled at washing them. After washing them with soapy water, he hung them outside to dry.
In the Lu family’s yard, this pair of big tiger shorts is particularly eye-catching.
That night, Lu Haici slept with his mother, and Lu Cheng became the one who stayed alone in the empty room. More importantly, when Lu Cheng took a bath and put on his clothes, he looked at his penis and calculated in his mind that there was a hole in his penis. Not to mention a big tiger, there was not even a little yellow chicken.
Of course, Captain Lu didn't need either the big tiger or the little yellow chicken, but he also wanted a new one.
Captain Lu found another way out, then knocked on the door opposite with a sad face.
"What's the matter?" Lin asked gently.
Lu Cheng: "Do you have the needle and thread? Lend it to me. I need to mend something."
Lin Qingqing went to open the door: "What do you want to make up? Do you want my help?"
Lu Cheng thought of the hole and said quickly, "No, I can mend it myself. Just lend me the needle and thread."
"Well, wait a minute." He said so, and Lin Qingqing didn't say anything. She went to get a basket, "The needles and threads are all in there, you can choose any color of thread you want."
Lu Cheng: "Okay."
Lu Cheng took the sieve back to the house, picked out the black thread from it, the same color as his pants, and started to mend his pants. After mending for an hour, Lu Cheng looked at the pants that had been mended into a mess, and put them aside in a discouraged manner.
This was the first time Lu Cheng had mended his clothes. Lu Cheng had always been rich, and he had never compromised on what he wore since he was a child. When something was torn, he would just buy a new one. This time, he tried it himself, but it didn't work.
Lu Cheng simply gave up and went to sleep. In his dream, he beat his son.
