MTL - Villain’s Delicate and Charming Wife-Chapter 52
Lu Che has indeed been promoted, from a team leader to a large team leader, responsible for leading several teams to do research.
He originally wanted to give Jiang Yao a surprise, of course, asking her for a "reward" was the main purpose, but she had already debunked his conspiracy and exposed it at dinner at night He is old.
Lu Che suddenly felt that it was a serious mistake to invite Zhang Dong and Zhu Xia to dinner tonight, but now, he can only admit it.
It is always a very happy thing for the young couple to get promoted together. Zhang Dong and Zhu Xia will also be promoted because they are with the right boss.
The meal didn't end until almost nine o'clock in the evening. The four young people talked about work, life and ideals. The old lady brought her brother and sister and Zhu Xia's daughter Tongtong to the side to play.
Changchang and Xiaolu grew up together, they don't lack company and don't feel lonely, but when they see dolls younger than themselves, they are still full of curiosity and love.
They, who were usually sleepy at 8:00, were in good spirits tonight, and they just played with Tongtong as a toy.
When Tongtong left, they were still pulling her, reluctant to part.
Tonight there are a lot of meals and a lot of tableware to wash. Of course Lu Che took over the heavy work and asked Jiang Yao to bathe the two little guys.
It's cold now, and the children's bathing place has changed from a patio to a room.
Jiang Yao closed the doors and windows tightly, and the two brothers and sisters sat in a large wooden basin filled with warm water, washing very happily. Lu Che was worried that the water would cool down quickly, so he prepared half a bucket of hot water next to him. As soon as the water temperature dropped, Jiang Yao would add some hot water to the wooden basin.
When Lu Che finished washing the dishes, Jiang Yao also washed the two children and put them into warm cotton sleeping bags.
The two took turns taking care of the children, until they took a bath and climbed into the big bed, Chang Chang and the deer still did not sleep.
Children are like this, if they don't fall asleep after their biological clock, they will not be able to sleep.
Lu Che was thinking about asking his daughter-in-law for "rewards", pretending to be a puppy and a cow and a horse, but they just didn't sleep until he said, "Don't you like sister Tongtong very much? How about mom and dad giving you a sister?"
As soon as the voice fell, the eyes of the brothers and sisters shone, the chicken nodded as if pecking at the rice, and Chang Chang couldn't speak, shouting "Ya ya ya", the deer said "Okay, Sister, good, sister" loops.
Changchang and the deer crawl and roll back to the crib, sleep directly on his pillow, and close his eyes.
Soon, they fell asleep.
Lu Che was relieved and turned to look at Jiang Yao, "Daughter-in-law..."
He was interrupted by Jiang Yao before he could say anything. She frowned and said, "Why did you tell the children that you want to have a sister for them? Didn't we say we won't have one?"
"I'll just talk about it. The matter of having a child is all about fate. If we can't have it, they can't blame us." Big Brother Lu said.
"..." Jiang Yao rolled her eyes silently, "Don't you mean that you are lying to children?"
"Of course not." After dawdling for a long time tonight, Lu Che couldn't bear it any longer, and hugged Jiang Yao directly, "The matter of having a child is random, but the process of making a child can be enjoyed first. a bit."
“…”
Wait for the end of a hearty exercise, it is already late at night.
I don't know if it's because I was too happy with the promotion, or because I didn't feel tired when I was free, Jiang Yao didn't feel sleepy afterwards. Since we can't sleep, let's have a sleepover.
"Next year when you become a team leader, will you be very busy at work?" Jiang Yao asked.
"It should be." Lu Che said apologetically, "At that time, I can't allocate much time to the family, I will be responsible for the routine heavy work, and the rest will be hard for you and your milk. . This is a rare opportunity. In order to make our future life better and better, we can only do this for the time being. "
"It's okay, Changchang and Xiaolu are almost two years old, much better than when they were babies. You can rest assured that I have milk and me at home." Jiang Yao is actually not worried about this. , but his special channel, she tentatively discussed with him, "If you can't be busy, you shouldn't go to the provincial capital to get the goods."
"Why? It's ok for me to go there when I'm on vacation." Lu Che said.
"I know, but I don't want you to work so hard. We are a dual-earner family. After this promotion, the salary and allowance should be doubled, and it will be more than 100 yuan a month. I think There is no need to make yourself too tired. The body is the capital of the revolution, and the road ahead is long."
Jiang Yao persuaded Lu Che like this, but she was worried in her heart.
As the saying goes, "I often walk by the river without getting wet shoes", Lu Che has been in this business for three years. Although he has been careful, it is inevitable that more and more people will recognize him. It's fine if others don't say it. If someone with a heart will expose it one day, it's not just as simple as walking away because you can't eat, you'll have to go to jail every minute.
In the original book, there was very little description of him in this period, so she didn't know whether he was doing business in the original plot, or if she added it after crossing over.
In the past, life was really difficult, and there was no way to seek wealth and wealth. Now that they have stable jobs and income, she really doesn't want to take this risk.
And, it is the beginning of 1975, and next year there will be a big event, and the whole society will also have a great turning point. The darker it was before dawn, and the more dangerous it was before victory. Since stepping into this year, her heart has been secretly uneasy.
While they were making great progress at work, she wanted him to put the business aside.
"Okay." Lu Che thought for a while, and said, "Don't say whether I want to do it or not, when I get busy, it is very likely that I will work overtime during the holidays, and I may not have time if I want to go. But if you don't do it, you won't do it. It's difficult to explain to the cooperating people for a while. I have to give them some time to find a supplier again, otherwise it will appear unkind."
"Okay." As long as he agrees, Jiang Yao is relieved, but he does not forget to remind him, "You have to go as soon as possible, bring something to visit people after two days off, thank them for always As for the care since then, I told them about it by the way."
"No problem." Lu Che said: "Then you have to make some snacks. Your craftsmanship is great, and gift giving is more face-saving."
"Humph...you just want to send me to work, so please give me a top hat."
"Of course not. If you feel disadvantaged, how about I serve you again, you won't be able to sleep anyway."
"Go away, I'm going to bed, I have to go to the New Year's store tomorrow, and when you are on holiday, go back to Qingyuan to celebrate the New Year, and it will be inconvenient to buy at that time."
The next day, when Jiang Yao got up, Lu Che had already gone to work.
Since the two brothers and sisters slept late last night, they haven't gotten up yet. The quilt was the most comfortable in the freezing cold, but Jiang Yao still woke them up, because if they went to sleep again, the diapers would not be able to hold, and the sleeping bag would be wet.
The two little guys were drowsy and a little nervous because they were woken up.
Jiang Yao couldn't take care of that much, and while changing their diapers, he said, "Mom will go to the supply and marketing agency and the department store to buy things for the New Year. I originally wanted to take you there, but now It looks like you want to sleep more."
Changchang and Xiaolu heard that she could go to the department store, and she suddenly became energetic, her eyes widened, Xiaolu, who had changed her diaper, sat up and shouted, "Go, go."
"As long as you don't sleep in, I will take you there." Jiang Yao said, "Now change your clothes."
“Change.”
The place where they live now is very close to the department store, and Jiang Yao no longer rides a bicycle. After all, it is inconvenient to carry two children by herself, so she put them directly on the stroller and pushed them out .
The old lady was making window grilles in the main room. When Jiang Yao saw this, she immediately said, "Mom, you can go with us. It's not good to stay at home all the time. It's fine to just walk around."
"Okay." The old lady didn't shirk. Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, the festival atmosphere is the strongest in the department store, and I feel very happy when I walk on the road. She said, "I made Lu Che for me. Bring the small cart with you, so you can pull back the things you bought when the time comes."
"Good."
The two men went out on foot. They first went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy food, meat, etc., and then went to the department store.
Festive atmosphere.
"Mom, this piece of cloth is good, you can make a top." When she walked to the cloth area, Jiang Yao heard a young woman say to an older woman.
"It's not bad." The woman's mother said: "Then buy this piece and make it look good later, and the blind date will be just right for the New Year." After speaking, she said to the salesman, "Trouble Help me wrap this cloth."
"Okay." The salesperson responded and took the opportunity to ask: "We have a good piece of fabric here, just right for making pants for your girl."
The woman's mother heard this and said, "Then show it to me. I thought the fabrics were all robbed at the end of the year, but I didn't expect there to be good things."
"Yes." The salesperson said angrily: "You don't know, many items in our department store are out of stock this year."
"Impossible, when will there be such a shortage of things?" The woman's mother said in surprise.
"It's not that there is no shortage." The more the salesman said, the more angry he became, "Everyone went to the alley to buy it, the price is not much more than ours, but there is no ticket, everyone runs away I bought it over there. It’s all my fault for those who are engaged in business, and all they make is unscrupulous money, let’s wait and see, they are going to be locked in.”
Jiang Yao couldn't help trembling when she heard this. She suddenly lost the desire to continue shopping, turned her head and said to the old lady, "Mom, there are too many people here and the air is not good. Let's go back."
"Okay, let's go then."
Jiang Yao turned the trolley around and pushed the brother and sister away. The salesperson behind her kept scolding until she left the fabric area and disappeared.
After returning home, Jiang Yao was still restless.
She couldn't sit still, so she left Changchang and Xiaolu to the old lady to take care of, while she went to the kitchen to make fried snacks with the flour, sugar, eggs and other ingredients she just bought.
This year is the twenty-sixth year. Lu Che will leave work earlier these days. She has to make the snacks before he gets off work, and then ask him to send them to the partner.
In the afternoon, when Lu Che came home from get off work, Jiang Yao had already divided the prepared snacks into several bags, added a small bag of candy, and said to Lu Che, "You go to give gifts now, and then talk to Lu Che. People say you will quit in the future."
"Why so suddenly?" Lu Che asked in confusion.
"I'll explain it to you tonight, anyway, you're right to listen to me." Jiang Yao pushed him out, and Lu Che was an obedient wife, so he could only follow her request to do it.
When the Lu Che family returned from the gifts, it was completely dark.
Dinner is ready and he can eat it as soon as it comes to the table.
Changchang and Xiaolu ate happily, but Jiang Yao was not in a high mood, and Lu Che clearly felt it.
He guessed it had something to do with her rushing him to give gifts just now, so he hurriedly cleaned up the dishes after dinner, and when the child fell asleep, he asked, "What happened?"
Jiang Yao told him about what he heard in the department store today, "I think the business of the alley has seriously affected the business of the state-owned department store. Definitely not going to let it go.”
"You don't have to worry so much. Those people who cooperated with me have been working for longer than me. They are all staring at it. It's really turbulent. They must know, otherwise, why have these years been passed safely?" Lu Che felt that she was making a fuss, but in order to appease her, he still promised: "I will do it once or twice to get the goods owed to them in place, and I will wash my hands."
"Can you quit today?" Jiang Yao asked with a frown.
"Yaoyao, I have cooperated with them for so many years. If I say no, I will not do it, and I will not be very kind. If the word of mouth of my way of life spreads, it will be difficult in the future. Let others believe me." Lu Che said with some embarrassment.
Of course Jiang Yao understands this, but she still can't help worrying, "Anyway, you should avoid the limelight recently. After the Spring Festival, everyone's demand will definitely drop, so don't be in a hurry."
"Okay, I see." Lu Che said with relief: "Several partners were very happy to receive the snacks and candies you made just now. Although I was a little disappointed to hear that I didn't do it. , but you also said that it is not a peak period for goods, and everyone is not dissatisfied."
Selling and selling are both profitable and risky. Every year, many new people join, and many quit. It is human nature. As long as everyone is comfortable when working together, everyone will not say much.
"That's good."
In the early morning of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, when Jiang Yao was in a daze, Lu Che had already woken up, she vaguely heard him say that she was going out, she "um" With a bang, he fell asleep again.
She slept until Chang Chang and Xiao Lu called her up, and when she helped the two little guys get dressed, she led them out. As soon as she walked to the main room, the old lady asked her, "Yaoyao, where did Lu Che go? It's almost New Year's Eve, and it's rare to have a holiday. Where is he messing around when he's not at home?"
"I don't know either." Jiang Yao tried her best to recall, but she still couldn't remember what Lu Che told her in the morning, "Maybe go out for a while, and she should be back by lunchtime. ."
"It should be." The old lady said: "He has been working very hard recently. I am going to make soup and let him drink two more bowls later."
"Thank you for breastfeeding."
"Wherever it's hard work, you can drink more later. If you don't go to work or take children all day, you won't grow any more fat."
The old lady went to stew the soup, but when the soup was cooked and lunch was served, Lu Che still didn't come back.
Jiang Yao's heart was a little flustered for no reason. After the nap, she excused her brother and sister to visit Zhu Xia's house. In fact, she wanted to find Zhang Dong to see if he knew where Lu Che was going.
"Why isn't your Zhang Dong at home?" Jiang Yao asked as soon as he entered the door without seeing Zhang Dong.
"I went back to Lao Zhang's house and said that the roof of the house was leaking and asked him to go back and mend it." Zhu Xia said.
Without Zhang Dong, where can Lu Che go alone? The more Jiang Yao thought about it, the more nervous her heart became. Fortunately, Zhu Xia kept chatting with her, and the children were making trouble beside her, so her attention was distracted.
It was almost five o'clock in Zhu Xia's place before Jiang Yao got up and went home.
At this time, Zhang Dong came back from the outside, and as soon as he entered the door, he said: "Zhu Xia, something big has happened. As soon as my relatives who were engaged in private business were arrested when they were connecting with the supplier, listen to me. Said to arrest a lot of people."
When Jiang Yao heard this, she fell on the chair as soon as her feet softened.
