Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 245 Her stepmother must be regretting it to death!
Lu Qiaoge was unaware that the people in the large office were whispering.

In the hallway, she overheard Chen Dafeng and Huang Juan from next door crying and complaining: "What? You slept with me for a year and got nothing in return? You want a divorce? No way!"

Lu Qiaoge: ...

That is one reason not to get a divorce.

The door to Lao Hu's office was open, and Lu Qiaoge didn't knock. Lao Hu was about to leave when he saw Lu Qiaoge. As he walked, he said, "Old Lin and his family have arrived. They brought witnesses, Chang An's adoptive parents, the village secretary, and the brigade leader. Oh, right, it's confirmed. Chang An is Old Lin's youngest son."

Although it was expected, Lu Qiaoge was still quite happy for Chang An.

She's run into Deputy Factory Director Lin several times these days. He's been wandering around outside, probably hoping to bump into Chang An. She doesn't know if he's actually had any encounters with him.

"Go to the food factory and find Chang An first, we'll talk about the rest later."

The scene of their reunion was actually very sad and hard to describe.

The ones wailing were Chang'an's parents—Old Lin and his wife.

The Chang couple remained terrified and uneasy.

The old Party Secretary treated Chang An quite well; he came this time as a witness.

Seeing such a large military factory, and seeing Chang An, who was neatly dressed and able to have simple conversations, you can tell he's doing well.

I heard they're all deputy directors of arts and crafts factories now.

This is truly good luck.

Even if he can't find his biological parents, he and Zhou Li's life won't be bad.

Even if Old Chang is a scoundrel, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble here.

He couldn't even get in through the main gate.

That's wonderful, he thought, happy for Chang'an.

Chang An was completely bewildered, and Zhou Li was even more caught off guard.

However, it is still necessary to make things clear.

Old Lin's wife choked up, "...It's not that I don't want you, it's just that there were bad guys causing trouble at the train station, and some people even threatened the police with drugs. The crowd scattered and ran. At that time, I was carrying you on my back when I took you to Beidu to find your father. But your older brother was knocked down by several people and couldn't get up. I reached out to help your older brother with one hand, and then someone rushed out from the side and snatched you away..."

This is what happened back then.

This was also a lifelong pain for Mr. and Mrs. Lin.

Chang An's mood improved a lot, but he remained silent and lowered his head, so Lao Hu had to smooth things over.

I definitely can't go to work now.

So Chang An and Zhou Li were given a day off.

Chang An clenched his fists tightly and stammered, "Right now... the production schedule is... tight, I... I..."

Thinking of her son being abused, Mr. Lin's wife couldn't help but cry again.

Lu Qiaoge spoke up at the right moment, her voice filled with laughter: "No matter how urgent the mission is, it's not a big deal to wait a little longer. Finding your biological parents is a wonderful thing, and we are all happy for you. You must have a lot to say to each other. Go ahead, it's alright, Xiaoyu is here."

Zhou Li glanced at her husband's parents and felt like she was dreaming.

To be honest, I don't have any ideas; my mind is a complete mess.

But her husband held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go, so she had no choice but to follow him.

After everyone left, Lao Hu said, "If Chang An leaves, let Xiao Yu be the deputy factory director."

Lu Qiaoge nodded: "The crafts factory speaks for itself based on its strength. Xiaoyu is a natural talent, and all the master craftsmen like her very much."

Naturally, they would support her work.

In fact, the factories were easy to manage in the early stages because there was no private ownership. Now, the situation is that people are either workers or farmers, with no other options.

Therefore, having a formal job is the only goal.

In the 1950s, the population was small and the country was undergoing construction. There was a shortage of workers at that time, and as long as you had a good background, you could get a job.

However, after experiencing explosive population growth, and because state-owned factories are not hiring, jobs are now extremely difficult to find. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a policy of sending people to the countryside.

This situation can only be gradually resolved after the reform and opening up.

Lu Qiaoge is currently the acting factory director. The higher-ups really don't know how to arrange the factory, which has only been established for a little over a month, so they all have reservations.

That's all for now.

Old Hu said the same thing: "Ge, you are still the acting factory director. The two deputy factory directors are also very capable. The rules and regulations you have set are very comprehensive. These workers are all capable of withstanding the test. You don't need to devote all your energy to this. If you don't go to the training class, you can't miss the night school classes. You need to improve your education level to high school graduation as soon as possible."

Lu Qiaoge nodded repeatedly; that was exactly what she thought.

"Thank you, Director Hu, for your support and trust."

Old Hu laughed heartily: "You kid, why are you being so polite with me?"

Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "I mean it."

It's actually quite lucky to have leaders like Lao Hu and Aunt Huang.

Many of her ideas and approaches are novel, and leaders who are not open to them can be very discouraging.

At that moment, Lao Hu was standing in the yard of the food factory.

There are two factory buildings in front of us.

One of the buildings is currently under renovation.

One of the buildings was divided in two, and the other consisted of the craft factory's workshop and warehouse.

For the North, the advantage has always been its vast land and sparse population.

The original pickled vegetable factory also occupied a large area of ​​land.

The idea at the time was that as the pickled vegetable factory grew bigger, more factory buildings would be constructed.

However, various problems arose, and due to restrictions on raw materials, the pickling market could not continue operating, and the place was left idle.

But at this time, it has been revitalized.

Old Hu felt very satisfied.

Lu Qiaoge also told Lao Hu about Sun Datian, Xiao Tao, and Lin Liang, the son of Lao Lin who is now the brigade leader and branch secretary.

Lao Hu has always trusted Lu Qiaoge.

Even when it comes to favors, hers carries the most weight.

Lao Hu, whom Lu Qiaoge had suggested, never objected. He simply told Lu Qiaoge, "Okay, I'll talk to Lao Wu."

Old Wu used to be in charge of personnel at the street office, but now he's called a labor and wages officer.

In other words, even if these three people fail the exam, they can still be reassigned.

Lu Qiaoge said, "The three of them should have no problem with their education. Especially Lin Liang, who was in the top ten in the cultural test for the machinery factory in our city, but he was eliminated because his eyesight was not up to standard."

Old Hu frowned: "There are many types of jobs in the machine factory, but it's plausible to use poor eyesight as an excuse."

Lu Qiaoge said, "I tested him, and his eyesight is normal. I also saw that he is skilled at weaving straw hats and basketball hoops. Although he is not as good as Chang An and Xiao Yu, there is a lot of room for improvement."

After all, their minds weren't on this.

Old Lin had always wanted his son to go to the city and become a worker.

Last year, I worked as a temporary worker in a shoe factory for six months.

Of course, it was eventually pushed down.

After all, temporary workers are highly sought after these days.
-
The news that Zhou Li's mute husband was the lost youngest son of a high-ranking official spread throughout the entire factory overnight.

Meng Xia excitedly asked Lu Qiaoge many questions before saying, "This is what they mean by 'getting fat first but not really getting fat later and then it's enough to make you feel terrible.' Zhou Li is really lucky. I'm just afraid her stepmother will regret it to death."

Grandma Lu said, "Therefore, one should not be too harsh on oneself; one must always leave oneself a way out."

Lu Qiaoge thought so too. If she had helped Zhou Lirong and her family back then, she might be benefiting from their situation now.
