When I first arrived at the yard of my eldest brother's house, there was a red cloth hanging on the door.

This is the rule.

It means that there is a woman in this house who is in confinement, and no idlers are allowed to enter.

Generally, outsiders won't go in if they see it.

If you have anything to do, come back after the full moon.

Lu Changhua is certainly not an outsider.

He honked the horn several times in the yard, then opened the door and went in.

A fragrant smell of chicken soup wafted from the kitchen.

"Mom, sister-in-law."

Lu Changhua shouted at the door.

This is also the rule.

Confinement period is inconvenient. When you come in as a man, you have to say hello to others and make them prepared.

Mother Lu came out of the kitchen with chicken soup.

"Son, are you back?"

"Mom, let me see the child."

"Come in quickly."

"I feel very cold."

"It's okay. Your sister-in-law is in the back room."

Lu Changhua then opened the door of the living room and asked his mother to go in first, and he followed behind.

"Brother is here?"

Zhao Yan came out of the back room.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work!"

"I'm fine."

"Where's the child?"

"Sleep."

"I'll take a quick look, just a quick glance."

"Go and have a look."

Zhao Yan turned around and gently opened the door.

Lu Changhua walked in quietly.

There was a milky smell wafting in the back room.

On the red mattress of the fire bed, two little guys were lying.

The chubby little face is tender and charming.

He closed his eyes and snored.

She was covered with a thin quilt, and her pink and tender hands were clenched into fists and stretched out from the quilt.

He looked carefully for a while, but couldn't tell who was the brother and who was the sister.

He slowly withdrew.

In the living room.

"Sister-in-law, this is the down jacket I brought for you."

Lu Changhua took out a white down coat from his bag.

This kind of down jacket is not available on the market yet.

It's considered fashionable.

The reason why he gave his sister-in-law one is because Zhao Yan is tall and tall, and her height and build are comparable to those of Europeans and Americans, so she wears them well.

"Oh, why are you buying me clothes?"

"Try it on, it should fit."

Zhao Yan took it with a smile on her face.

This brother-in-law is so nice.

Zhao Yan wears it just right.

“It’s so beautiful and warm.”

She looked back and forth in front of the mirror.

"Mom, this down jacket is worn by foreigners. The size is too big. I will buy you a suitable one later."

"Silly boy, I don't lack clothes either."

Mother Lu laughed and cursed.

"Zhao Yan's dress is beautiful and looks good."

Zhao Yan called Lu Changzhong and said that his brother was here.

At noon, Lu Changzhong came back with a bottle of wine.

"Originally I have to go to work in the afternoon, so I shouldn't drink, but you're here. I'm glad you're here. Let's have a few drinks."

"Okay, just drink."

The two brothers haven't seen each other for a while.

Zhao Yan took advantage of the fact that the children were asleep, so she quickly had something to eat and take a rest, otherwise she would not have the same good life as she did when they woke up.

"Come, brother, congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law for their good fortune."

Lu Changhua started to organize.

Lu Changzhong also couldn't hide his excitement about becoming a father.

"Haha, brother, you have to hurry up."

"I'm still early, I'm not in a hurry."

The two of them drank from the glasses and filled them up again.

"You're not in a hurry, Wang Yao can't afford to wait."

Mom accompanied Zhao Yan to dinner and said something.

"Yes, Wang Yao is three years older than you. She is too old to have children."

Zhao Yan was deeply moved when she thought of her own situation of giving birth.

"Let's discuss this matter next year. Don't worry, Wang Yao and I will find a time to discuss it."

Lu Changhua changed the topic and asked: "Has the child been named?"

"Not yet."

"The boy is the eldest, I think we should go by seniority."

"We are prosperous and they are prosperous."

Lu Changhua recalled what his father told them.

The generations of the Lu family are well arranged.

Like a poem.

Lu Changhua didn't remember either.

He only remembered the last sentence, "Prosperity and light for eternity."

"I've thought about a few, but I haven't decided yet. Why don't we let dad take it?"

Lu Changzhong thought of his father who was far away in Beining and worried about the fish farm.

"That's right, let our dad choose the name, he will be very happy."

"Girls can get it themselves, have you thought about it?"

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Lu Changzhong became worried.

"I think girls should be pure and quiet, and behave clearly and clearly. Lu Shengqing, what do you think?"

Lu Changzhong muttered a few words silently, Zhao Yan also thought about it, the two looked at each other and nodded.

"The name is good, it's Lu Shengqing!"

Lu Changzhong decided on his daughter's name with a wave of his hand.

Mother Lu recited a few words silently and thought they were good.

She nodded and said, "Sheng Qing, it's good. It sounds very clean."

"Okay, it's settled."

Lu Changhua had something to do and rushed back to the three-point court in the evening.

The next day, we followed the goose down rubber-tired truck back to Bac Ninh.

When I came back, I told my father and Wang Yaoyi that my niece's name was a good one.

"Dad, you should worry about your grandson's name. My brother and the others are still waiting."

"Okay, I have to do this!"

Lao Lu happily went about his business.

No matter what he said, he had to give his eldest grandson a resounding name.

"What's going on with Lu Sheng?!"

Lao Lu won't be able to sleep these days.

"Wang Yao, call your third uncle and tell him that he has a batch of European-style white women's down jackets and ask him if he wants them?"

"What? Is this the one I'm wearing?"

"right!"

Wang Yao called Zhou Shude.

Zhou Shude benefited from canned goose meat.

When I saw Wang Yao calling, I knew something was up.

"Yao, what good things are you thinking of your third uncle?"

"Third uncle, there is a European-style down jacket for women. It is white. Do you want it?"

"What's it like?"

"I have a sample, do you want to see it?"

"Of course I want it, will you deliver it?"

"I'll send my partner to you, okay?"

"Okay, my address is..."

Zhou Shude reported the address of the import and export company.

Wang Yao brushed a few notes and wrote them down.

"I'll go in the afternoon."

The railway from Beining to Heihe is currently being rebuilt and has not yet been opened to traffic.

To go to Heihe, you can only take a bus or drive.

It is convenient to have your own car.

Lu Changhua said some love words to Wang Yao and then drove north.

There is a provincial road from Beining to Heihe, which is more than 230 kilometers long.

At this time, there is neither railway nor highway.

He followed the provincial and county roads and headed north.

You have to look at the road signs at the fork in the road. If you get sidetracked, you will have traveled dozens or hundreds of kilometers.

Fortunately, the Heihe River is on the riverside, which is also the border. Just follow the road to the north and don't stop until the water's edge.

At night, when the sun had set, Lu Changhua drove slowly into hh city with his car lights on.

It was so late and he was too embarrassed to disturb his third uncle.

I found a hotel on the street and stayed there.

Early the next morning, he called his third uncle.

"Third uncle, I am Wang Yao's partner, Lu Changhua, I have arrived."

"Oh, so fast? When did you arrive?"

"Just arrived, just arrived."

"Come to my office."

The import and export company is located near the port.

It is a five-story building with a courtyard.

Lu Changhua drove his black Volga slowly into the compound, and the guard did not stop him.

After entering the office building, when I asked about Zhou Shude of the Food Department, someone pointed to the third floor.

He came to the food department manager's office.

"Are you Zhou Shude, third uncle?"

"Hey, you are Xiao Lu?!

Come on, sit down, sit down!"

Zhou Shude was very polite.

He was busy making a cup of hot tea for Lu Changhua.

Then he sat across from him.

"Xiao Lu, Wang Yao said there is a women's down jacket?"

"Yes, third uncle, look at it."

Lu Changhua took out a white down jacket from his bag.

Zhou Shude is also a knowledgeable person. He picked it up and shook it, looked back and forth, then touched the fabric and squeezed the down.

Looking at Lu Changhua, he asked: "How many down jackets are there?"

"Ten thousand pieces."

"Why do you have the goods in hand? This is the European version. I'm afraid it's not available in China, right?"

"My third uncle is really an expert. This is a product ordered by a European customer. There was a little accident, so now these 10,000 pieces have been given to me."

"oh."

Zhou Shude thought about it in his mind.

Then he said: "Xiao Lu, we are not outsiders. You have also helped me. I am telling the truth."

He took a sip of tea and continued: "I am in the food business, and I have never made this kind of clothing. However, I can give it a try. I will take the sample and go to the trading center to have a look tomorrow. If it works, I want the goods.

If it doesn't work, don't blame me."

"Third uncle, if we don't speak the same language as our family, I won't blame you if we can't!"

"Okay, feel free. Have you settled in?"

"I've already booked a room in the guest house."

"Oh, let's have lunch together, then?"

"OK."

Zhou Shude was busy with what he was doing for a while, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he took Lu Changhua to the restaurant.

The two men were not polite and ordered a few dishes, two plates of dumplings and a bottle of Yuquan wine.

"Come on, Xiao Lu, this is our first time meeting each other. You're welcome, family members. It's time to eat and drink. Come on, let's have a drink first."

Lu Changhua saw that Zhou Shude was also very straightforward, and just in line with his own appetite, the two drank the drink.

Zhou Shude was very happy to see Lu Changhua being so cheerful.

Fill him up again.

Lu Changhua immediately covered the mouth of the cup and said, "Third uncle, I only have one cup, no more."

"Ah? You only have one cup?"

Zhou Shude was stunned after hearing this.

How much have you done with one cup?!

"Haha, third uncle, I can only drink a glass of wine, but I can still drink a toast. Just control yourself and don't drink too much. If you drink too much, you will get into trouble."

"Haha, you kid, it's okay. People who have control are unusual. Okay, I won't force you."

Lu Changhua was waiting for news about Zhou Shude in the hotel.

Zhou Shude went to the trading market early the next morning to set up a stall.

This time, he put on this women's white down jacket.

The old men who were passing by gathered around him when they saw this.

This down jacket has a novel and fashionable style and is waist-cinching.

It is completely different from today’s bloated down jackets.

Especially the girl, who was wrapped up tightly, her eyes lit up when she saw Zhou Shude's clothes.

He wouldn't leave around Lao Zhou.

He murmured something in Russian, and the smell of perfume made Zhou Shude cough.

"Is this dress for sale?"

"How about a hundred rubles? I want it now."

"No, I'll pay you one hundred and fifty and sell it to me."

Before Zhou Shude could say anything, Madame Mao started to fight herself.

Finally, the down jacket was priced at two hundred and fifty rubles.

You know, the ruble is very valuable now.

One hundred dollars can only be exchanged for sixty rubles.

Think about how much two hundred and fifty rubles are in US dollars?

Four hundred and sixteen dollars.
