Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 157 Why can't they tolerate us?

Old Hu took a look around and expressed his satisfaction.

The food factory was operating smoothly, and its management system was more comprehensive than he had ever seen before.

how to say?

Even if Lu Qiaoge isn't here, it will still function perfectly.

This makes people feel very complicated.

You should know that many people are reluctant to let go of the little things they hold onto.

Old Hu admired this kind of demeanor, but instead of praising him, he reminded Lu Qiaoge to be humble, steady, and cautious. He told her to report everything to him, and he would take responsibility if any problems arose. He insisted that she not act on her own initiative.

How could Lu Qiaoge possibly make decisions on her own?

She reports on her work the most frequently.

Lu Qiaoge obediently agreed.

Old Hu told Lu Qiaoge that he had found a retired worker to work the night shift, and the salary would be paid by the food factory.

No problem. Putting aside everything else, the income from the manual labor group alone is enough to pay the wages of the food factory workers.

Not to mention, there's also the daily revenue from the department store.

Old Hu rode his bicycle to the grain bureau.

At first, he thought it was just a small-scale operation, but who would have thought it would become a big business?
Therefore, we should try to obtain grain and oil as much as possible and avoid stopping production.

But now, we're not afraid of stopping production.

Old Hu, who was riding a bicycle, suddenly wondered if Lu Qiaoge had thought of this long ago, which is why he divided the food factory into two groups so that they could help each other.
That's right, that should be it.

Even that old fox, Director Hao, said that girl was too clever, so Lu Qiaoge had a clear understanding of the current situation and had already come up with a solution!
Lu Qiaoge had no idea that Director Hu had so much on his mind.

After reviewing what Director Hu had just said in his mind, he said to Meng Qingshan, "Let's continue operating as we are now. Brother Meng, I'm going back to the subdistrict office first. You can come to me if you need anything. By the way, Director Hu said he found a retired worker for the night shift who will start work tomorrow. When he starts, you should check his character. Remember to do it discreetly and don't let him find out. In a while, I'll apply to get a telephone line installed for our factory."

Meng Qingshan said excitedly, "It would be great if we could install a telephone."

Even Meng Qingshan himself did not expect that a small street office workshop could actually get foreign trade orders.

Moreover, the food produced by their food division is in short supply.

When he first came here, some people envied him, some were jealous of him, but most looked down on him.

They advised him not to waste his time at the pickle factory.

Don't you know why the pickled vegetable factory went bankrupt in the first place?
How many factories under the jurisdiction of the neighborhood committee have been shut down?
So this won't last long. You'll lose everything, and you might even have to write IOUs and take on debts.

Is it worth wasting time for no reason?
Fortunately, he was very insistent at the time and didn't take those words to heart at all.

Although the factory manager was younger than him, he inexplicably gave him a feeling that he could rely on him.

He said to Lu Qiaoge, "Factory Director, don't worry, I will do my best!"

Meng Qingshan is a reliable person, so Lu Qiaoge is naturally at ease. After all, she is receiving double pay, so she must continue her work at the neighborhood office.

As for whether I'm tired or not...

Anyway, she doesn't have to do any work; she just needs to use her brain and her mouth.

Before she even reached the entrance of the neighborhood office, Sister Qiao, who came out of the office, saw her and her eyes lit up: "Qiao Ge, I was just about to go to the food factory to find you."

Lu Qiaoge: "Is something the matter?"

“Yes, the Ding family from District 5 came yesterday, saying that their second daughter-in-law is not supporting them, and they want the neighborhood committee to intervene.” Lu Qiaoge asked, “How old are the elderly couple? Do they have pensions and a house?”

Instead of answering immediately, Sister Qiao ran to the window and said to Sister Hua inside the room, "Qiao Ge and I are going to Lao Ding's house to tell Deputy Director Huang that she doesn't need to rush over."

Sister Hua peeked out and saw Lu Qiaoge standing at the door. Sister Hua smiled and waved to the pretty girl.

Lu Qiaoge also waved to Sister Hua with a smile.

She really liked being around the people in the big office.

The atmosphere was harmonious, just like a big family.

On the way, Sister Qiao told Lu Qiaoge: "Old Ding and Old Ding's wife are seventy-two and seventy years old respectively. Old Ding has long since retired, but Old Ding's wife does not have a pension and lives in a house allocated by her work unit."

The house is relatively small. Old Ding has two sons and two daughters. He used to live with his eldest son, but then his second son moved out.

Ding Lao Da meant that he had supported his parents for over twenty years, and now it was his turn to support them. I visited Ding Lao Er's home; he was alright, but his wife firmly disagreed.

She told me at the time that if the elderly couple moved in, she would immediately get a divorce.

It is said that the two had a very good relationship and their family was very harmonious, so Ding Lao Er firmly disagreed with the divorce and also disagreed with his parents going to his home.

But the old couple really had nowhere to live. Their second granddaughter-in-law had just married into the family, and they couldn't let her sleep on the floor. So, the old couple and their eldest son and his wife slept on the floor.

These two people had no choice but to come to the neighborhood office, hoping we could persuade their second daughter-in-law to do some ideological work.

Supporting one's parents is the responsibility of children, and he didn't want to complain to his superiors and embarrass his son.

Lu Qiaoge nodded, indicating that she understood the basics.

Sister Qiao and Lu Qiaoge arrived at District 5 soon.

Now Old Ding and Old Ding's wife are both living in the eldest son's family.

When Lu Qiaoge and Sister Qiao entered the room, they saw an elderly couple with gray hair sitting pitifully on their tied-up luggage, wiping away tears with their heads down.

Upon seeing Sister Qiao and Lu Qiaoge arrive, Granny Ding cried and said, "Why didn't Director Huang come? Can the two of you resolve this matter? If you can't resolve it, this old woman won't be able to live and will have no choice but to jump into Hongxing Lake."

Sister Qiao immediately said, "Aunt Ding, it doesn't have to come to this. We can discuss things and talk things out. Comrade Lu and I are here today to resolve the issue."

Old Ding said, "Look at our current environment. It's not that my eldest son is complaining, it's that we really have nowhere to live. My wife and I are both this old. Even if we go to my second son's house, how many years can we stay?"

But my second son's wife absolutely refuses to let me go; she says if we go, they'll get a divorce. My second son doesn't want a divorce, isn't this forcing my wife and me to die?

Lu Qiaoge glanced around the room.

It's only about 30 square meters.

Although Jiangcheng is a sparsely populated area, cement, red bricks, and steel bars were scarce resources when the houses were built, so each house was not large, just so that more families could live there.

That's the advantage of living in a tenement building.

However, the downside is that they are all very small.

Ding Laoda also has four children.

She now has three sons who are married, but they haven't been allocated houses yet.

It is indeed very difficult for more than ten people to live in a space of just over thirty square meters.

Lu Qiaoge thought of her own little house and decided to see this matter through to the end, because a new idea had come to her mind.

Having understood the situation here, Sister Qiao said, "Let's go to Ding Jianshe's house to find out more. After we understand the situation, how about we sit down together and resolve it?"

Thank you for your monthly votes, my darlings! Love you all, and I wish you a happy holiday!
