With the preparation of personnel and materials completed, the next step is to arrange the work.
Before getting off work, Li Weidong called Qin Jingru into the office.
"Comrade Qin Jingru, you should already know that I am going to assist Shuangshui Village soon and need to leave for a while. During this time, I hope you can do your duty and ensure the normal production of the poverty alleviation workshop."
Qin Jingru's eyes were already red at this time, she suppressed her emotions, pursed her lips and nodded heavily: "Brother Wei Dong, please rest assured, I will never let anyone destroy your hard work."
Seeing her look like she was about to cry, Li Weidong stood up and pulled her to the chair next to him, laughing loudly and saying: "Little girl, this assistance is only for two or three months. It will take a long time to make it look like this."
Is it like a separation between life and death?"
Qin Jingru snuggled next to Li Weidong and smelled his good smell, and the squeezing emotions in her heart suddenly burst out.
He pressed his body close to her, buried his head in his arms, and began to cry loudly: "Brother Wei Dong, I can't bear to leave you..."
When Qin Jingru learned that Li Weidong was leaving this afternoon, she almost fainted on the spot.
She didn't think it before, but now she realizes that Li Weidong is so important to her.
Just thinking about not seeing Li Weidong again in a few days made her heart ached like a knife.
Qin Jingru's cry also aroused the soft part in Li Weidong's heart, and he gently patted her shrugged shoulders and said pretending to be angry.
"Jingru, are you disobeying me?"
Qin Jingru was startled and straightened up quickly: "Jingru, listen to Brother Wei Dong most."
"Then don't cry now." Li Weidong said with a straight face.
Qin Jingru took two deep breaths and barely suppressed her crying.
Li Weidong: "Smile."
Although Qin Jingru was still twitching, she still managed a smile.
Li Weidong gently lifted her black hair, slid his fingers across her smooth and white chin, and said with a smile: "This is ridiculous. If you are like this, how can I be willing to leave?"
"Yeah, brother Wei Dong, if Jingru doesn't cry, Jingru will be strong." Qin Jingru's emotions finally calmed down at this time, and she nodded obediently.
Li Weidong smiled and said: "We probably won't be able to see each other for a while, why don't you..."
Only half of the words were said, Qin Jingru understood what Li Weidong meant, blushed with embarrassment, and threw herself into his arms.
A few days later.
Qin Jingru's body slumped on the chair. It took a long time to finally recover, and a sound of satisfaction came out of her throat.
"Brother Wei Dong, I was so full just now."
"Who makes you so greedy? You obviously don't have enough food, but you still force yourself." Li Weidong smiled happily, took out a cigarette from the tunic on the table, lit it, and took a deep breath.
hiss...
call...
My predecessors will not deceive me. A cigarette after a meal makes me feel as happy as a god.
Li Weidong slowly sat on the chair and narrowed his eyes slightly.
This chair is a mahogany Taishi chair bought from a trust store. It has two tall handles that can support your legs and is very suitable for doing things.
Qin Jingru suppressed her fatigue at this moment, stood up, cleared away the traces of the plates on the table, and curled up in her arms obediently.
"Brother Wei Dong, you must be careful when you go to the countryside this time."
"Don't worry, I'm carrying a gun and there are a few trustworthy comrades around me. It'll be fine." Li Weidong gently teased her hair and said with a smile.
Qin Jingru shook her head: "That's not what I meant. I'm worried about those little girls in the countryside."
Li Weidong: "......"
Good guy, this jealousy has spread hundreds of kilometers away.
Qin Jingru may have felt that she was overdoing it, so she turned to other things.
"You are leaving soon. Should I call Jia Taohua back to join Sister Qin and let's have a nice meal together?"
Li Weidong laughed loudly and said, "What you said is best is to eat."
"If you hate me, you will bully others!" Qin Jingru's face flushed with embarrassment, and she lightly hit Li Weidong on the shoulder twice.
.....
Considering that he had to go home in the evening, Li Weidong gave up the idea of inviting Qin Jingru to have another meal and left the poverty alleviation workshop early.
Get on your bicycle and drive along the wide concrete floor, through the gate of the steel rolling mill, and towards the courtyard.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out of the woods nearby.
Li Weidong was startled, and he quickly squeezed the handle of the car tightly, his long legs hanging on the ground, and the soles of his leather shoes scratched a black mark on the cement floor.
With the combined action of the handbrake and footbrake, the bicycle was brought to a halt.
"You kid is going to die..." Li Weidong was about to get angry, but his eyes suddenly widened: "Are you Da Mao?"
Yes, it was Liang Ladi's eldest son Damao who was standing in front of him at this time.
He was wearing shabby blue and black clothes and had a canvas schoolbag slung on his chest. There was a red five-pointed star embroidered on the schoolbag. It looked like he had just finished school.
Da Mao seemed to be shocked by the scene just now, his face turned a little blue, his legs were shaking slightly, and he stood there at a loss.
Li Weidong tied up his bicycle, walked over, and patted him gently on the shoulder: "Da Mao, it's okay. Don't you think you are fine and haven't been hit by the bicycle?"
Da Mao finally came to his senses, looked up and down at his little arms and legs, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Uncle Wei Dong, I really thought I was going to be hit just now!"
"You, please never rush out suddenly and block other people's bicycles in the future."
"Yeah, I understand Uncle Wei Dong."
After chatting for a while, after Da Mao woke up, Li Weidong asked with a smile: "Da Mao, why are you here today?"
"Ah?!" Da Mao said with some embarrassment: "Uncle Wei Dong, you haven't been to my house in recent times. My mother was still talking about you two days ago..."
Da Mao was a little embarrassed to continue, but Li Weidong understood that these little guys must be greedy.
In the past, when Li Weidong went to the Liang family, in addition to ten pounds of stick noodles, he would also bring them some snacks such as White Rabbit toffee.
I have been busy with the poverty alleviation workshop and Jia Taohua for a while, and I really forgot about Liang Ladi.
Well, since he was about to leave the capital, he should also inform Liang Ladi.
"Okay, tomorrow is the weekend, uncle is free, and I will go to your house tomorrow."
"Really?" Da Mao's eyes widened in excitement.
Li Weidong laughed and said: "Of course it's true, can I still lie to you, a young boy like you?"
"I will go back and tell my mother now. She will definitely be happy."
After hearing what Li Weidong said, Da Mao turned around and ran away excitedly.
He always felt that the relationship between Li Weidong and Liang Ladi was a bit strange.
However, as long as Liang Ladi is happy, that is enough.
....
It was almost six o'clock when Li Weidong returned to the courtyard due to being delayed by Da Mao.
In the winter in Beijing, the sun always dies very early.
Every household in the courtyard lights up with orange lights, coupled with the faint scent of food, it looks particularly friendly.
Li Weidong tightened his collar and strode towards the courtyard.
As soon as I walked in, I bumped into a fat guy.
It's really weird today. He always has trouble walking. Li Weidong muttered in a low voice, raised his head and immediately became happy.
That person was clearly Liu Haizhong.
Even though Liu Haizhong weighs more than 200 kilograms, he can be regarded as a land tank of this era, but he still can't compare with Li Weidong, whose body has been strengthened.
Li Weidong's shoulder was picked up, and he almost fell to the ground as if he had been hit by a truck.
After stumbling to his feet, Liu Haizhong saw it was Li Weidong, and the anger on his face immediately disappeared.
When I saw Li Weidong in Liu Haizhong before, it was as if I had encountered the god of plague, hiding as far away as possible.
Now because of Huang Chunlan's incident, he is much closer to Li Weidong.
"Director Li, are you off work?"
"No, second uncle, in our compound, I am Li Weidong, not Director Li." Li Weidong still pays attention to his public image.
"Yes, yes...you have a high level of ideological awareness and will not break away from the masses even if you become a leader." Liu Haizhong licked his face and smiled.
Li Weidong adjusted his collar and said with a smile: "Second uncle, if you get off work so late, you must be working overtime in the factory. This kind of spirit is worth learning."
Hearing this, Liu Haizhong's face suddenly turned red.
Are you kidding me, Liu Haizhong is a seventh-level master, can we work overtime like those apprentices?
Isn't it just that after work, I went to a tavern to have a drink?
Liu Haizhong quickly changed the subject and asked with a smile: "Comrade Weidong, when will you go to Shuangshui Village?"
Does this guy know it too? Li Weidong was stunned for a moment and slapped his forehead.
The loudspeaker of the steel rolling mill rang several times today. Liu Haizhong is a worker in the steel rolling mill. He has been working in the workshop all day, so he must be aware of this.
"It will probably take another two days. Do you have anything?"
"Ah, you have forgotten that my family Guangqi is getting married to Huang Chunlan in two days. You have helped my family so much and you can be considered a benefactor. Guangqi would like to toast you with a few more glasses of wine."
"Calculating the time, I should be able to make it to Shang Guangqi's wedding. Don't worry, I will definitely attend on time." Li Weidong agreed in one breath.
"Then thank you."
The center of the bangs is blooming.
Over the years, residents in the courtyard often got married and had children, and they spent a lot of money on favors.
This time I want to take advantage of Liu Guangqi's wedding to get it back.
Li Weidong is the workshop director and can be regarded as the leader of the factory. He will definitely give out more gifts than others.
I made a lot of money this time.
.....
Li Weidong had returned home at this time.
Unexpectedly, besides Yu Li, Shazhu and Han Zhizhi were also present at home.
A large table of dishes was placed on the table.
Steamed sea bass, chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised pork ribs, and scrambled eggs with chopped green onion.
Judging from the aroma and color of the food, it must have been made by a professional chef.
When Yu Li saw Li Weidong coming back, she stood up with a big belly and wanted to take the canvas bag from Li Weidong's hand.
"I'll do it myself." Li Weidong hung the canvas bag on the coat rack, looked at the food, and said with a smile: "Why is it so rich today?"
Han Zhizhi stood up and said angrily: "We heard that you were going to the countryside, so we thought of setting up a table with food and wine to see you off."
Good guy, this is so confusing that everyone in the capital knows about it?
At this time, Yu Li couldn't help but brought him hot water and a towel.
Li Weidong washed himself up and felt refreshed all over.
He wiped his face and said with a smile: "There are still several days before departure. Are you a little too early?"
Hearing this, Han Zhizhi rolled his eyes at Silly Zhu: "I just said that for this kind of thing, you must be fully prepared. How could you accept the mission today and set off tomorrow? But this idiot didn't believe it and insisted on it.
Take me to the vegetable market to buy vegetables."
After hearing this, Li Weidong finally understood.
Silly Zhu must have been greedy at this time, and he seemed to be using this excuse to satisfy his craving.
We, Li Weidong, cannot dismantle him.
He smiled and said: "It's okay, you have to practice it sooner or later. This time it's ahead of schedule."
Sit down, pick up the chopsticks, pick up a piece of braised pork ribs and put it into your mouth.
He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Silly Zhu, your skills seem to have improved a lot."
Li Weidong had always felt unconvinced after hearing that Shazhu failed in a cooking competition with Nan Yi and decided to concentrate on practicing cooking.
I originally thought that Shazhu was joking, but I didn't expect that he really took it seriously.
Silly Zhu was praised and nodded excitedly: "How is it? Is his cooking much better than that boy Nan Yi?"
"I think if we have a competition next time, as long as we don't compete with palace dishes, you will definitely win."
"Haha, I knew that Brother Wei Dong, you are a knowledgeable person." Silly Zhu said proudly.
Yu Li couldn't drink because she was pregnant, so Li Weidong started drinking with Sha Zhu and Han Zhizhi.
A bottle of Laofen wine was shared among three people and was in perfect condition.
After drinking and eating, several people chatted about business.
Li Weidong looked at Silly Zhu and said: "Brother Yuzhu, we are old neighbors. I may have to go out for two or three months this time. Yu Li is pregnant and will give birth soon. After I leave, she will go back to her parents' home, but I
I still hope that you and Comrade Han Zhizhi can help more."
Silly Zhu patted his chest and promised: "Brother Wei Dong, don't worry. If you didn't introduce Han Zhizhi to me, I wouldn't be able to live the happy life I have now! You are my benefactor now."
Silly Zhu's words were not exaggerated. Although Han Zhizhi was a little stronger, his temper was a little grumpier, and he liked to scold her a little bit.
But she gave birth to a little girl to Shazhu.
Since having a daughter, Shazhu has finally found his goal in life and has changed from his usual carefree attitude.
At work, I also wanted to make progress. In just half a year, I became the deputy director of the canteen, and my monthly salary increased by two yuan.
He is now preparing to take the chef promotion test, and he is expected to be promoted to a seventh-level chef soon.
Han Zhizhi also nodded and said: "Brother Wei Dong, don't worry, you are not in the compound, we will definitely take good care of your home."
Li Weidong is not worried about his family. With Qin Huairu as a big man, no one dares to do anything.
However, he still expressed his gratitude to Han Zhizhi.
The night is getting deeper.
After sending Han Zhizhi and Shazhu away, Li Weidong took the initiative to help Yu Li clean up the dishes.
Then.
The two of them were lying on the bed and talking quietly.
Yu Li pulled Li Weidong's hand to her belly: "Brother Weidong, the child seems to be moving inside."
Across his belly, Li Weidong could indeed feel the feeling of blood connection that instantly spread throughout his body.
This time when he went to the countryside to provide assistance, what he was most worried about was not his own safety.
However, according to the calculation of days, Yu Li's due date is two months away.
By then, he might not be able to come back in time.
Li Weidong thought for a moment: "Yu Li, if you think you are about to give birth, ask Yu Haitang to call me. I will give you the county phone number when I get there."
Yu Li hesitated and said: "Will this delay your work?"
"Work is not as important as wife and children!" Li Weidong hugged her and said with a smile.
