The Era of Hard Work

On the main road of Xuefu Wenyuan Community, the Santana car was parked on the side of the asphalt road. Lu Dong got off the co-pilot, opened the back door and went down to get things.

Most of them are the special products of Lu's Cooked Food.

Lu Jianren went to open the trunk, and took down the Qingzhaowang that he bought yesterday.

For now, this is one of the best local wines produced in Qingzhao. The most important thing is that Qingzhao people have a high degree of recognition.

Lu Dong said, "Uncle Qi, you can move freely."

"You don't need to worry about me." Lu Jianren gave Lu Dong the Ti Qingzhao Wang: "Go and leave your father-in-law safely."

Lu Dong was very helpless: "The horoscope has not been written yet."

Lu Jianren grabbed Lu Dong's painful foot, "No wonder people say you are stupid, you speak without thinking."

Hearing this, Lu Dong's face was full of surprise, shouldn't Uncle Qi describe himself with these words?

"If I wanted to be like you back then, your Seventh Aunt would have been married away by someone else long ago." Today, Lu Jianren finds that Lu Dong has nothing to teach him, so he finally seized an opportunity to educate him, how can he let it go easily: "It's just that the little black man follows you through the wind and rain, and if he can fall in love with you, you idiot, look around you, which woman will take care of you? You can just tell me that, your name is little black man Listen, how sad are people?"

Lu Dong was even more helpless: "Yes, Uncle Qi, I can't say no to you."

Lu Jianren pointed at him: "Dongzi, how did you say that? Let me think about it..." He pondered for a while: "EQ! Yes, just EQ! Your EQ will be eaten by the sheep of Lu Jiansong's family!"

Lu Dongxin said, can a person like me who can get along easily be called low in EQ?

"Go quickly." Lu Jianren taught: "When you go, don't talk nonsense, and think before you speak."

Lu Dong always felt awkward when this kind of words came out of Uncle Seven's mouth. Could he be less reliable than Uncle Seven?

Lu Dong brought wine and tea, as well as several other specialties of Lu's cooked food, and walked towards a building near the north gate of Wenyuan, a school. Before turning in front of the building, he saw Song Na wearing a white down jacket. come over.

"What are you going to do?" Lu Dong asked her.

Song Na saw Lu Dong and said, "Wait for a while, I'll go buy a bag of salt."

She walked quickly to the north gate of the community, there were two reception rooms near the gate, one of which was rented out by the property, and someone opened a small shop there.

Song Na came back after buying a bag of salt, took two things from Lu Dong's hand, and asked, "Where is Uncle Seven? Didn't he come with you?"

Lu Dong nodded his chin to the south: "Let's go." He said as he walked forward, "I didn't tell me about the move, so I can help."

"Do you think I won't give you a chance to show off?" Song Na laughed: "I didn't move anything, the house was replaced with a new one, and the furniture and appliances were all new. Not to mention the door-to-door delivery, I was responsible for the installation."

She told the truth: "Guangmei's service is much better than Sanlian's."

Lu Dong asked again: "Is there anyone else at home today?"

Song Na replied: "No, I specially called you."

The two entered the door of the unit, Song Na went to knock on the door, and the anti-theft door opened from the inside.

When Lao Song saw Lu Dong, he hurriedly opened the door: "Lu Dong, come in quickly, come in and get warm."

The weather in late November, coupled with the heavy snowfall some time ago, the daily temperature has been below zero recently.

Lu Dong greeted: "Uncle." Then he said to Song Ma who came out of the kitchen: "Aunt."

Seeing what Lu Dong was carrying in his hand, Lao Song said, "Come to have a meal, what to bring."

Lu Dong handed everything over to Song Na, and said with a smile, "Just some local products from the village."

The decoration of the house is very simple, the floor is covered with tiles, the walls are scraped porcelain, brown sofa and coffee table, the living room has an air conditioner, and a ceiling fan is also installed.

"Come on, sit on the sofa."

The Warm Store has been open for more than half a year, and Lao Song is very familiar with Lu Dong: "This side is near the heating."

The room is very warm. When it was being renovated, the heater was turned on directly. Although it was necessary to burn coal by itself, the room was very warm. It must be 17 or 8 degrees.

Song Na followed and said to Lu Dong, "Give me the coat, it's hot in the room, don't go out to catch a cold."

Lu Dong took off his coat and gave it to Song Na, and sat on the side sofa. Lao Song wanted to pour tea for him, but Lu Dong hurriedly took the teapot and poured two cups next to each other.

"I wanted to ask you to come over for dinner a long time ago." Lao Song's face was full of smiles: "Nizi said that you are busy recently, and Quannan, University City, and your village are running around."

Lu Dong said: "Recently, I have opened a new store, and there are a lot of things to do. I have been busy these two days to get a clue."

Lao Song picked up his teacup and drank water: "You and Nizi, one new store is opening after another. I'm old and can't keep up with the rhythm of you young people."

Originally, it was a cozy warehouse that could earn thousands of dollars a month, so I thought it would be pretty good, and my future life would be guaranteed.

Unexpectedly, my daughter was more daring than she thought, and she opened a store in the county town and a branch in the university city. In a blink of an eye, there were four Warm Warehouses, with a monthly profit of tens of thousands, and she even started a company in partnership with a girl. The formalities are almost over.

Lu Dong's side is even more powerful. The three new stores in Quannan have a rent of more than 700,000 yuan a year.

All the people in Stone Village can earn 700,000 yuan a year?

Song Na came out of the kitchen, carrying a few fruit plates, which contained melon seeds, peanuts and walnuts, and placed them in front of Lu Dong, took a mazza, and sat on the edge of the coffee table.

Lao Song took a handful of melon seeds: "Lv Dong, try it, the ones grown in the yard at home are a bit neglected this year, and they haven't grown much."

Lu Dong was familiar with their family, and he was not very polite, so he brought peanuts and peeled them.

Song Na took out a walnut pliers from the drawer, opened a walnut, handed it to Lu Dong naturally, and asked, "Is the Ginza settled?"

Lu Dong peeled off the walnut skin and said, "The contract is signed, and there are two restaurants open there, Burger King and Malatang, both of which have a two-story structure."

Song Na said: "Brother Qian has helped a lot in these things, so I have to thank him very much."

Lu Dong nodded lightly: "Third Grandpa is going to hand over the aluminum alloy doors and windows and stainless steel equipment for the newly built workshops of the primary school and the processing factory to Brother Qian."

There are more than ten bungalows in the elementary school. The project is not big, but the work in the processing factory is not small.

Business and human relations are coming and going.

Once Song Na and Lu Dong talked about work, Lao Song couldn't get in the way, so Lu Dong quickly changed the subject and talked about rural affairs.

Lu Dong didn't know much about how to farm the land, but he was quite proficient in catching rabbits and bugs.

For example, in the dishes prepared at noon today, there is a plate of mountain water buffalo, that is, Song Na worked in the gravel yard pushing a cart last summer, and caught bugs that were sold for money.

This was specially caught by Lao Song after the rain when he went back in the autumn.

Mama Song prepared six dishes, four stir-fried and two meats bought from outside. The restaurant was more like a decoration, and the four of them sat on the edge of the coffee table in the living room and had lunch together.

Lao Song came over with a bottle of Qingzhao Tequ, unpacking the box and preparing to open it.

Song Na took it over and said, "Dad, Lu Dong drank with a client a few days ago and hurt his stomach, so he can't drink more. You should drink less at noon."

Lu Dong did drink a lot with Zhang Mingyu and Director Zhao that day, and it was just a moment of discomfort, but Song Na remembered it in her heart.

Since Song Na said so, it is impossible for Lu Dong to refute.

Song Na poured Lao Song and Lu Dong a glass each: "Just a drink."

Lao Song didn't recruit his daughter, and Lu Dong would not be so stupid as to refute Song Na's words, and he was not out to socialize, so he drank as little as he could.

For Qingzhao's custom of entertaining guests and not stopping until they get drunk, Lu Dong, a Qingzhao person, is actually not very used to it.

The situation will only change if the older generation grows older and the younger generation becomes the backbone of society.

More than ten years later, it is difficult to say about work and entertainment, but it is rare to see drunks on the streets for weddings, weddings and New Year's receptions for relatives.

There are fewer and fewer people like Uncle Qi who was drunk from the first day to the fifteenth day of the junior high school.

Lu Dong drank with Lao Song, Song Na drank with Song Ma, and the four chatted while eating.

Strictly speaking, this was also the first time for the new son-in-law to come to the house, but Lu Dong and the old Song couple were too familiar, and the two sides talked more or less casually.

Lu Dong had known for a long time that Song Na's family affairs were all decided by Lao Song, and Song's mother basically belonged to the type who listened to her husband in big and small matters.

Then there is Song Na, because of earning money to support her family and having knowledge in all aspects, Song Na's right to speak tends to be equal to that of Lao Song.

When eating and talking, it is inevitable to talk about the families on both sides.

Lao Song met Lu Dong for a glass and took a sip of wine: "The factory in your village is running well. Nizi often goes to Juewei deli to buy food. If it tastes good, I will go around when I have nothing to do. I heard people say Is it all your mother's handiwork?"

"Not exactly." Lu Dong said modestly: "It's all the result of the hard work of the whole village. The recipe given by my mother is just the foundation."

Lao Song said: "Your mother is very powerful. In our rural areas, it is not easy for a woman to be the deputy factory director."

Song Ma asked at this time: "Your father still has an older brother?"

Lu Dong knew that this was a necessary procedure. Maybe Song Na had said it, but the words coming out of Song Na's mouth were completely different from his mouth: "My father and brothers joined the army when they were young. My uncle I was an engineer, and I have been working in construction since I retired from the army. My family has few relatives. My mother brought me up, and people from the village and the street helped me. many."

Lao Song heard Lu Dong talk about the Lu family food factory, and knew that this child was kind and righteous.

Not to mention anything else, when starting a business with my daughters, it is one thing to be willing to endure hardships and work hard, and Lu Dong's help is even more crucial.

"It's not easy for your mother." Lao Song also came from the countryside. If he had to change to a village with a bad relationship, he might suffer a lot.

Lu Dong said: "Uncle, we are all rural people. It's not easy for rural people these days."

"Yes!" Lao Song picked up the cup.

Lu Dong also picked it up, and lowered his cup to clink with Lao Song.

After drinking a glass of wine, Lao Song wanted to drink again. Song Na, who was next to Lu Dong, touched him with her foot. Lu Dong hurriedly said, "Uncle, don't drink anymore. I'll be sleepy if I drink too much."

Lao Song didn't force it: "That's fine, let's eat, drink and chat."

After eating, we talked about the conversation again, the sun is good outside, Lao Song and Song Ma went to the small yard to bask in the sun.

"These two children know the importance." Lao Song was in a good mood: "They won't cause trouble, and they can solve problems when they happen, so they don't make people worry."

Song Ma agreed: "It's up to the two of them to go."
