Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 467 Should We Still Intervene?
Qin Hengzhi stopped his bicycle and turned to look at Lu Qiaoge, who seemed lost in thought.

In fact, even if he hadn't said that, given Qiao Ge's personality, he wouldn't have really stood idly by.

But he wanted to stand by her side.

He would never approve of her doing something that is impossible.

Even if Qiao Ge is capable, she has no obligation to take responsibility for other people's lives.

Lu Qiaoge smiled at him and said, "Okay, I understand."

We still need to regulate it.

After all, he already knew, and he had even told Qu Caifeng.

But according to her understanding, Qu Caifeng is probably very happy now because she was unable to deal with her.

Therefore, Qu Caifeng feels she has won and is probably very proud of herself now.

The two stopped discussing that topic, as Lu Qiaoge considered it a trivial matter. Instead, they talked about their trips to Beidu and Haicheng.

Lu Qiaoge plans to bring the tabby cat and the others along this time. The big dogfish can also come if it wants, but they may need to stay in the space for a long time.

I won't tell Qin Hengzhi about the big dogfish and the others, but I can tell about the tabby cat. After all, the tabby cat isn't home, so Qin Hengzhi will definitely be the first to notice.

The two chatted casually for a while and soon arrived home.

The bicycle was parked in the yard, and Qin Hengzhi spontaneously went to chop firewood.

The Lu family home is bustling with activity today.

When Meng Xia saw Lu Qiaoge return, she said, "Qiaoge, Xiao Su just came by. She happened to be in Beicheng. She told me that your house was requisitioned at the original price. After the final tally is completed, you can take the receipt to the finance department of the preparatory office to collect the money."

Xiao Su is Sister Su.

She is now the deputy director of the branch factory. The factory building has been completed, but after Xiangyang's repeated expansions, Deputy Director Zhou decided to prepare for the expansion ahead of schedule.

Then the higher-ups smoothly allocated this area in the north of the city to the branch factory.

As for the residents here, they were all given new houses. People at this time were very sensible and would not take the opportunity to make exorbitant demands. As long as there was a place to live and the conditions were similar, they were all very understanding and accepted it.

Lu Qiaoge thought to herself that she would still need to deal with the basement of the house in the north of the city when she had time.

Grandma Lu said, "Our area is also registering; people came this afternoon too."

Knowing this, Lu Qiaoge said, "I guess we'll have to move around May Day."

Qin Hengzhi, who was chopping wood while sitting on a bench, reiterated: "You can stay at my house."

Lu Da, who was sitting to the side wanting to smoke but not daring to, said directly, "No, it's barely acceptable for your second aunt to live there, but we are all factory workers, so it's not appropriate for us to stay there. Although we are all in the same compound, there are all sorts of people there. In the end, not only will Hengzhi be pointed at and gossiped about, but we will be too..."

At this point, Lu Da and Meng Xia exchanged a glance.

If Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge get married, then the house won't need to be returned.

But even now, Qiao Ge has no plans to get married.

Qin Hengzhi wasn't the kind of scoundrel who would date but never get married, so the real reason lay with his own daughter.

Not wanting to ask in front of Qin Hengzhi, Meng Xia said instead, "The registration office said that if all goes well, everyone can move in by the end of this year. Actually, there aren't many households that need to be arranged. The factory is planning to build about fifty houses, mostly in the bungalow area and wasteland."

Lu Xiaosi didn't care about any of that; he would stay wherever his parents were.

He liked Qin Hengzhi. When Qin Hengzhi chopped firewood, he would help out, neatly stacking the chopped firewood.

But he still told his family what he knew and heard.

"I heard from my classmates that most of them were assigned to the vocational school's dormitory."

Meng Xia's eyes lit up: "The vocational school is good. You can set up a stove and cook in the corridor."

Lu Qiaoge: "Those who want to rent a house can do so, and the company will cover half of the rent."

Lu Da laughed: "That's great, it lightens the burden considerably."

Qin Hengzhi put down the axe and talked for a long time, but they still hadn't decided where to live when they moved next month. Uncle Lu clearly didn't want to get involved with him.

Qin Hengzhi glanced at Lu Qiaoge.

Lu Qiaoge said, "You can stay at the vocational school. You can still live with your old neighbors. The dorms will be divided into blocks, and there will be bunk beds. We'll put some partitions in the middle. It shouldn't be a problem to stick with it for a few months."

Qin Hengzhi did not insist any further.

"The end of the year is the latest we can plan for." Qin Hengzhi smiled as he said this: "Because of the food factory, we have basically prepared all the materials. We also have our own construction company, and the local government is also providing assistance. If everything goes smoothly, the construction period can be shortened by at least one month."

Lu Zhiyu exclaimed in surprise, "So that means we can move into our new house in November?"

Qin Hengzhi nodded: "More or less."

Lu Qiaoge suddenly remembered the major event in July.

Nothing major happened in January, but what about March, July, and September...?

Many things have changed now.

Will this... change?
Just then, Su Hui, who was resting in the room, suddenly cried out in pain.

Grandma Lu reacted quickly and was the first to run to her grandson's room.

Lu Zhiguo hadn't finished get off work yet; the transportation tasks were tight these past few days, and he had been working overtime.

Because of her pregnancy, Meng Xia didn't need her to do anything, and the food factory also gave Su Hui a vacation.

Maternity leave is very good now; some companies even offer up to three years' worth.

When Su Hui heard Lu Qiaoge's voice and thought she was about to go out, she sensed something was wrong.

But her due date is in three days.

Grandma Lu went inside and asked, then immediately said, "She's about to give birth. Eldest daughter-in-law, come in quickly, Su Hui seems to be going into labor..."

Qin Hengzhi immediately stood up: "I'll go find the car and be right back."

Qin Hengzhi, who was extremely decisive, left before the Lu family could speak.

Lu Qiaoge stood in the courtyard, somewhat bewildered.

After all, this was truly my first time experiencing this.

"Grandma, Mom, do you need anything?"

Meng Xia said, "No need, no need. Diapers and everything are ready. Don't rummage around. I've put them in a fixed place. Lao Lu, go cook the dumplings. Qiao Ge, go find your sister-in-law a change of clothes..."

The once orderly courtyard suddenly became a bit chaotic.

It was just too sudden.

While the Lu family was still searching for something, Qin Hengzhi managed to get the car to the front of the Lu family's gate in the shortest amount of time.

Don't know how he did it.

Lu Qiaoge readily picked up her sister-in-law and put her in the car. On the way, they met Lu Zhiguo, who was on his way home, so she left her bicycle by the roadside and got in the car with him.

It wasn't quite chaotic, but it was still different from usual.

Lu Da was extremely busy, and only he and Xiao Si were at home. Even the old lady had gone to the hospital with him.

Lu Zhiyu also wanted to go, but his family wouldn't let him.

Lu Da put the cooked dumplings into five large lunchboxes. He quickly ate a bite, then rode his bicycle, leaving Lu Zhiyu to watch the house, and rushed to the hospital.

When they arrived, the dumplings were still warm, but Qin Hengzhi had already asked the cafeteria chef to cook hot soup with eggs for everyone.

Meng Xia said, "I left three boxes on the windowsill, and gave the other two to the head chef in the cafeteria. He made a special egg noodle soup for me..."

Lu Da nodded: "Okay, I'll go right away, um, uh..."
