Although Chen Xiaogang looks carefree, he is actually a thoughtful person.
When it comes to things that cannot be said, he says nothing to anyone.
It’s not just Chen Xiaogang either.
If you think about it carefully, aren't Xie Jiaci and Liu Yiming both such people?
Chen Xiaojuan racked her brains to think about her brother, "I really can't figure out what unit he is in and what he does, and my parents don't know either."
Lu Qingqing asked about his inner guess, "Are you in Team B?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaojuan shook her head decisively, "That's definitely not the case, but it should be about the same. Anyway, my dad said it is a confidential unit. It is selected directly by superior leaders and ordinary people cannot enter."
"Nothing they do can be disclosed to the outside world, so my parents don't let me ask more about it."
Chen Xiaojuan's words today can be regarded as clearing up Lu Qingqing's doubts.
But at the same time, it gave her more doubts.
"Then why did your brother come back here from work?"
Mentioning this, Chen Xiaojuan suddenly became cautious, "It's hard to talk about it."
"My brother suddenly came home three years ago. He didn't even say hello before he came back. When he first came back, he was depressed for a long time."
No matter how much information there is, Chen Xiaojuan doesn’t know it here.
Based on his own guesses, Lu Qingqing roughly imagined Xie Jiaci's story.
He and Chen Xiaogang must be in the same company, and maybe Liu Yiming is also in the same company.
Something big must have happened three years ago, which forced them to leave the confidential unit and disperse.
Xie Jiaci and Liu Yiming retired from the confidential unit. Logically speaking, there was no need to go to the countryside at all.
But they still appeared here and acted very low-key.
Rather than going to the countryside, Lu Qingqing felt that Xie Jiaci came to live in seclusion.
Lu Qingqing left the county town and felt much lighter while riding the bike.
The thick layer of fog surrounding Xie Jiaci seemed to have finally been lifted away by her.
When Li Guiqiu saw the clothes Lu Qingqing brought back, she thought they were new clothes she bought.
"Girl, you should have bought yourself some new clothes a long time ago."
Her daughter is pretty and has been a flower in the village since she was a child, especially now she is becoming more and more beautiful.
Not once or twice did Li Guiqiu feel that those clothes were not worthy of her daughter.
Lu Qingqing smiled and took the clothes over, "It's not mine, I promised to change the size for others."
Li Guiqiu was puzzled.
My daughter has never touched needlework since she was a child. When did she learn how to change clothes?
Lu Qingqing seemed to have seen through her doubts, "Mom, please stop guessing. I am very interested in making clothes now. I happened to meet a master in the county and taught me a little bit. I can do it!"
Li Guiqiu carefully handed over the clothes with suspicion.
It would be okay for her to sew a small cotton-padded jacket with the soles of her shoes, but she really wouldn't dare to change her clothes.
What's more, the fabric was expensive at first glance. Li Guiqiu was afraid that the clothes would be damaged even when she touched it.
As the weather gets hotter, people in the village will only change their thick homespun clothes into thinner ones, but people in the city have already begun to think about wearing fashionable and good-looking new clothes.
Chen Xiaojuan's dress is a long blue dress. It's quite decent and not too out of the ordinary, but it's pretty enough to look good in a small county town.
Lu Qingqing picked out a set of tailoring tools from the space and started making changes.
There is no sewing machine at home, and she cannot take out something as big as a sewing machine from the space.
Fortunately, the skills in her hands have not been neglected, and she has already found the feeling after a few stitches.
The densely packed stitches dazzled Dongdong, but in Lu Qingqing's hand, the stitches looked as beautiful as dancing butterflies.
Dongdong snuggled next to Lu Qingqing, "Mom, you are so amazing."
Lu Qingqing felt particularly accomplished when she was recognized by her son, as if she wanted to use this to prove that she was a decent mother.
The waist of Chen Xiaojuan's dress was too wide, so Lu Qingqing tucked the waistline of the dress inward and sewed a small but very delicate bow on the side for her.
The originally pure blue dress with no embellishments suddenly became more beautiful and more fashionable because of the folded waistline and bow.
The same is true for many things. Starting with the details will often play a finishing touch.
Lu Qingqing took Dongdong's hand and went to the main room.
Lu Zhenghao knew her intention as soon as he saw her coming, "I was watching, I didn't go out today."
Lu Qingqing asked Lu Zhenghao to help keep an eye on Fan Lin.
As for why, she didn't say, and Lu Zhenghao didn't ask.
Lu Qingqing was very moved by this. She felt that this was a bit of trust between father and daughter that needed no words.
Lu Zhenghao watched Li Guiqiu turning over and counting the money in the small box several times, unable to close his mouth.
The daughter is filial, even if Li Guiqiu and Lu Mingyu just do some cleaning work, they insist on giving money. In such a short period of time, the family already has hundreds of dollars!
This is a good day that Li Guiqiu never dreamed of before.
But they are not the only ones willing to live a good life.
the next morning.
Before Lu Qingqing could go out, he was blocked at the door by Li Guiqiu's natal brother.
Looking at the man standing at the door with his eyes narrowed and smiling, Lu Qingqing shook his head for a moment and almost didn't recognize him.
In terms of seniority, she should also call Li Guiwang uncle.
But Li Guiwang is really unfaithful and unfilial, and he is famous throughout Lijiazhuang!
Li Guiqiu was filled with anger when she saw him, "What are you doing here at my house? Get out, get out!"
An honest man like Li Guiqiu, who works quietly, would like to pick up a broom and drive people out of the house. You can imagine how much people hate Li Guiwang.
But he is also a thick-skinned person.
A smile appeared on his dark face, and his greedy eyes narrowed to a slit.
"Sister, look what are you saying?"
"I'm the only younger brother in your natal family. If you kick me out, people can't laugh at you because you don't have anyone in your natal family?
I came here today just to see you, my nephew and niece!"
Li Guiqiu's fingertips were trembling, "Bah, who cares!"
"Stop your scheming thoughts and go back to Lijiazhuang!"
As a sister, she knew who Li Guiwang was.
The only son in the family has been pampered to the extreme since he was born, and has never done any work for a penny.
Later, I married a powerful daughter-in-law. She obeyed her words but ignored her parents.
Li Guiqiu's mother was also an honest person. She worked hard as a cow and a horse for her daughter-in-law, and died early.
But how did Li Guiqiu’s father die?
Sudden illness and sudden death on a cold winter night.
The old man died for two full days, and his son who lived in the front yard never noticed.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day when Li Guiqiu returned to her parents' home to deliver something that she discovered it.
The body of this lonely old man was so hard!
From that time on, the three Li Guiqiu sisters cut off all contact with this younger brother.
Never interact with each other until old age and death!
So Li Guiwang's sudden visit today, in Li Guiqiu's eyes, was like a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a rooster.
