Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 824 One is willing to hit, the other is willing to be hit

Along the way, she vented all her resentment on Lu Qiaoge, spitting as she spoke in the cold wind: "If it weren't for you, you jinx, corrupting the atmosphere, how could Kang Yuxing have brought up divorce? I refuse to believe there's no justice to be found! A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years!"

She decided to write a letter to the Northern Capital to complain, determined to bring down the source of this unhealthy trend—Lu Qiaoge—and ruin her reputation!
At this moment, Lu Qiaoge was completely unaware that Kong Fanrong had gone mad. She had already left Jiangcheng and was sitting on a speeding train.

This is a specially configured train. The middle carriages are loaded with special supplies, namely military parts, and there are passenger carriages attached to the front and rear.

At the back of the carriage where Lu Qiaoge was, several open wagons were filled with mountain products and wild game that she had purchased for the State Administration of Foreign Trade, as well as frozen ducks, geese, and even half a wagon of pork.

Before leaving, she had contacted Director Lin, who was overjoyed and said repeatedly on the phone, "Qiao Ge, you've really helped us a lot. These days, it's a miracle to have these goods. I've already prepared the payment, and we'll settle the bill when you arrive."

Although this year's situation isn't as tight as in previous years, supplies are still scarce, especially as the Lunar New Year approaches, with far more people wanting more than they can afford. All organizations are worried about providing holiday benefits for their employees. Lu Qiaoge's shipment undoubtedly relieved the General Administration of Foreign Trade's urgent need.

Qin Hengzhi, dressed in a crisp military uniform, stood on the platform to see them off.

The steam locomotive's whistle was deafening, and billowing white smoke filled the air.

He watched the train slowly start moving, and gazed at the waving figure in the window. He stood there for a long time, thinking to himself: We can't continue living apart like this. We should speed things up. Maybe I can end my term as military representative early and apply to be transferred back to Beidu.

The journey was generally smooth, except for a three-hour stop for snow removal due to a sudden blizzard.

That evening, the sky suddenly darkened, and a strong wind whipped up snowflakes that pelted against the car windows like sand, making a crackling sound.

The train was forced to stop at a small station.

Outside the window, wind and snow were raging, and visibility was less than ten meters.

The heavy snow buried the railway tracks, and most of the passengers got off the train.

Everyone was enthusiastically clearing the snow, and no one was willing to let Lu Qiaoge, this delicate female comrade, get off the train. Several young soldiers even formed a human wall to block the door of her carriage, for fear that she might be swept into a snowdrift by the strong wind and they would not be able to explain it to Representative Qin.

Lu Qiaoge had no choice but to stay inside the carriage, watching the busy crowd outside through the frosted glass.

She secretly added some spiritual spring water from her spatial dimension to the kettle. The invisible energy spread out with the steam, and she distributed a little to each of her comrades who came to fetch water, hoping to help them strengthen their resistance and withstand the bone-chilling cold.

But actually, she is the energy source in the car.

After the snow was cleared, the train continued north, and the clattering sound of the wheels hitting the rails became steady again, finally arriving in the northern capital.

There weren't many people at Beidu Station, but it was cold, and everyone's breath frosted over their eyebrows and eyelashes.

Director Lin indeed led a team to wait, making quite a show of force, followed by several staff members carrying large scales and ledgers.

Upon seeing Lu Qiaoge, she excitedly stepped forward, grasped her hand, and shook it vigorously: "Qiaoge, thank you so much! I didn't expect you to bring so many good things, especially the pork, chicken, duck, and goose, all of them are fat and oily, which solves a big problem! Now, the General Administration's employees have their New Year's goods sorted out!"

Before the pleasantries were over, she patted Lu Qiaoge's arm and said in a low voice, "I've already prepared the money. We can talk in detail at headquarters. You should go home and rest first. Look, your mother-in-law is here to pick you up too." After saying that, she gestured towards the exit.

Lu Qiaoge looked in the direction indicated and saw Bai Jinyan. Bai Jinyan was wearing a gray woolen coat and a scarf. He did not enter the station because some carriages needed to be re-coupled here to continue northward. The area was under lockdown, and unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter. Lu Qiaoge took the two bulging canvas bags that Bai Jinxin had asked her to bring to her sister off the train and walked towards the exit.

My trip to Beijing was very busy, and I barely had time to talk to my mother.

However, he also took the time to visit Bai Jinxin and his uncle.

Although the old man of the Bai family has retired, he still lives in a nursing home.

The woman who had caused such a ruckus somehow ended up taking her youngest son with her husband to the nursing home.

Lu Qiaoge wasn't interested in the specific reasons; she only listened to Bai Jinxin complaining to her.

At that moment, Bai Jinxin's lips curled into a cold smile and disappointment: "My father always talks about being heartless and ruthless, but now you see, right? After all these years, he still has feelings for that woman. Otherwise, why would he let her stay here for so long?"

To be honest, someone like my father could have a hundred ways to deal with that woman, but did he use them?

Useless!

Others might think he took the person away because he found it troublesome, but wasn't that a kind of compromise?

It's a case of one willing to give and the other willing to receive; that's just how it is.

Then, Bai Jinxin turned her head and looked at Lu Qiaoge with a deep gaze, saying earnestly, "Although I am Qin Hengzhi's family, I still follow reason over kinship. It's not right for you two to keep separating like this. No matter what, he is a man at heart. He is handsome, with striking features, and girls can't help but steal glances at him. I think it would be better if you two reunited as soon as possible, so that those irrelevant people don't take advantage of the situation."

Lu Qiaoge smiled and replied, slowly but deliberately, "If I married someone else, I think all men are like that. Even if I'm as beautiful as a flower, he'll get tired of looking at me one day. But Qin Hengzhi is different!"

Bai Jinxin was just saying that; seeing how good their relationship was, she was still very happy.

Meanwhile, Lu Qiaoge, carrying the things Bai Jinxin had given her sister, met Bai Jinyan, who was there to pick her up, amidst the crowd at the station exit.

Bai Jinyan smiled and looked Lu Qiaoge up and down, the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes smoothing out. She said with a hint of reproach, "Knowing you were stranded by the blizzard, I was really worried! The broadcast said the lines over there were down. Hengzhi too, couldn't he have taken time off to bring you over? I even scolded him on the phone..."

"Mom, it was sunny and calm when we got on the bus, and the weather forecast said there would be no snow. Who knew it would suddenly start snowing? You know, the weather is unpredictable." Lu Qiaoge took her mother-in-law's arm and explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Bai Jinyan sighed and said with great melancholy, "When will our country have its own satellites so that we can see this sky clearly?"

Lu Qiaoge also looked up at the dark starry sky.

It's really tough right now; we lack both technology and money.

Even Lu Qiaoge... aside from using her superpowers to steal data and technology from certain developed countries and then investing heavily in meteorological research institutes, there's really no other way.

According to the course of history, it might be ten years from now.
