"If it's later than August, the watermelon won't taste really good. It'll smell like a noisy meal after August."

Liu Yin scooped a little bit with a spoon and fed it to Li Ning. She smiled and said, "Look at this little appearance."

Children who are new to the world are curious about everything.

Li Ning's little hands were strong. He would grab whatever he caught and put it into his mouth to taste.

The pushcart Li Shu used to ride in when he was a child became his car, but he couldn't push it to the edge of the flowerpot.

He can pull off flowers and leaves as soon as you walk by, and he can do more harm to people than his sister.

However, children who are sensitive to taste are not so happy when they taste the first bite of watermelon in their lives.

Li Ning's expression looked like he was taking medicine. He had no teeth and could only sip the taste in his mouth.

"My brother doesn't like watermelon——"

Li Shu squeezed in next to her grandma, looked at her brother in the car, and said, "He likes to eat steamed buns."

"Hahaha, you know-"

Liu Yin nodded her forehead and explained with a smile: "It's not to make my brother full, but to give him a taste."

"Isn't this how you came here when you were a kid? Have you forgotten?"

"I-I don't remember-"

When Li Shu heard her grandma say this, she stood there and thought hard.

After thinking for a few seconds, he raised his head and said, "Grandma, give me another bite and let me think about what it tastes like."

"You think this is a medicine introduction!"

Qin Jingru wiped her face with a towel in a funny way, and her little mouth turned into a little cat after eating watermelon.

She tapped Li Shu's belly and reminded: "You have eaten enough. If you eat any more, you will explode."

"Auntie! What I eat is watermelon!"

Li Shu was still not convinced. She looked at Qin Jingru and emphasized: "I - I - what I am eating is not firecrackers!"

"Hahaha--"

Liu Yin laughed so hard that she could hardly hold the watermelon in her hand. She ordered her eldest granddaughter and said, "You little clever devil!"

"hey-hey--"

Li Shu actually didn't know what her grandma and aunt were laughing at, but when she saw them laughing, she also gave a fake smile.

Li Ning held her hand on the armrest of the trolley and looked at them blankly.

This cute little expression made Liu Yin feel even more happy.

A granddaughter and a grandson have become the source of happiness in this family.

Taking care of these two children every day, even though it is a bit harder, I still feel happy.

Just when Li Shu was wondering how to get another mouthful of watermelon, the sound of a car came from outside the window.

"Look, is your father back?"

Qin Jingru couldn't fool the little girl anymore, so she followed the sound of the car to scare her.

Li Shu listened with open ears, then her expression changed and she ran out of the restaurant on her short legs.

Otherwise, the child's ears are very useful. When Qin Jingru chased him out, Li Xuewu had just opened the courtyard door.

"dad--"

Li Shu screamed excitedly, then carefully walked down the steps and ran along the corridor to Li Xuewu, who had just gotten off work.

"Be careful, if you hit your neck again——"

Li Xuewu was about to turn around to help, but when he saw his daughter running out, he could only look after her.

As soon as Li Shu ran up to her, she caught her daughter with both hands and hugged her.

"Giggle--"

The unique clear laughter of a child rang loudly in Li Xuewu's ears, making it sweet and sweet.

This is the taste of childhood and the meaning of raising children.

People cannot regain the happiness of childhood, so they can pass this happiness to the next generation.

"Do you miss daddy, or do you miss delicious food?"

Li Xuewu carried his daughter out and walked out. When he saw her staring at the box that Han Jiankun had moved, he patted her belly and asked with a smile: "Little pig?"

"I'm a little cat——"

Li Shu grabbed each other's hands and watched Uncle Han move things under the car expectantly.

A few days ago, her father brought her a lot of delicious and fun things when he came back.

Just like this time, it was brought back in a car and it was delicious.

"How sophisticated do you think she is?" Qin Jingru, who was chasing after her, tapped Li Shu's little hand and complained to Li Xuewu: "I only listened to it once in the morning, and I talked about it all day long."

"At night, I'll be staring at the gate with my eyes and ears perked, waiting for you to come back with delicious food."

"I don't--"

Although Li Shu's eyes were fixed on the trunk of the car, her mouth was the toughest.

She shouted in a chirping voice: "I just miss my dad——"

"Well, I believe what my daughter said, I must believe it."

Li Xuewu nodded pretending to be serious and said, "My daughter says she misses me, so that means she misses me."

"You definitely don't want these delicious things I brought back." Just when Li Shu hugged his neck and nodded in agreement seriously, he said again: "So give these to Li Ning, we won't eat them!"

"dad--"

Li Shu pouted and looked at her naughty father. She really wanted to ask him, is the relationship between father and daughter made of plastic?

"My younger brother doesn't like eating, but my younger brother only likes to eat steamed buns!"

"You remember--"

Qin Jingru helped Han Jiankun by moving boxes from the car. She glanced at Li Shu, who was as big as a brat, and pouted, teasing her: "I'll give you steamed buns tonight too!"

Li Ning has grown teeth, and two small white tips have appeared on his lower front teeth, and he likes to chew things.

There were no snacks for the children at home, let alone teething sticks from later generations, but this steamed bun caught him.

Seeing her younger brother holding a steamed bun and chewing it, Li Shu thought that his younger brother liked steamed buns.

So when she saw someone telling Li Ning what to eat, she would remind him that his brother didn't like this or that.

"It's a haha ​​melon! A big grape!"

Before she could think of how to answer her aunt's words, she saw clearly what delicious food was in the box her father brought back.

------------------

Thanks to the opening of the refrigerated train line to support frontier areas, the employees of the Red Star Factory have had something new at home in the past two years.

Melons, fruits, beef, mutton, seafood and other local specialties are put on the dining tables of the capital.

Of course, this does not mean that with this dedicated line, these things will be cheaper.

But compared to the past, things that you couldn't buy with a ticket and money can now be purchased in the supply and marketing department of the factory.

In a large factory with tens of thousands of people, the supply and marketing department opens from the factory cafeteria to the main entrance.

It was originally an open space, but now two brick buildings have been built. Every time after get off work, the place looks like a vegetable market.

Fortunately, the factory has strict regulations. After entering the gate, bicycles can only be stored in the vehicle storage area.

The main road in the factory area is wide, there are many sales departments, and there are many types of goods for sale, so there is no congestion.

In the early days of the personnel reform, there were many female comrades who came out of the workshop who were not suitable for labor production. Some of them were transferred to the service department because of their physical condition.

The service office already has a large number of people. After accepting these people, it can also do the resettlement work in an orderly manner. In addition to the fact that many branches have been added to the factory and are in urgent need of employment, the service supply and marketing office is the focus of manpower consumption and resettlement.

project.

Fruits and vegetables, seafood and meat, pots and pans, dried fruits and dry goods, etc.

Some are produced in-house, some are supplied by the supply chain, and some are imported through special channels.

Although it is not as good as ordinary supply and marketing cooperatives in all categories, in terms of supply, it will definitely beat all supply and marketing cooperatives.

In the past, there was only one dedicated supply chain line, running once a month, but later there were two, and then two dedicated refrigeration lines were on the road every day, continuously bringing back special products from offices across the country.

With more resources, there are also more people, but the increase in resource category and quantity has overshadowed the increase in the number of employees, and the happiness index of the employees of the Red Star Factory has also skyrocketed.

He said that young people are making trouble nowadays, and fights happen from time to time.

But look at Lao Li, is he really afraid of fights among factory workers?

No, he's not afraid, he just doesn't want this embarrassing incident to affect the hard-won development of Red Star Factory.
