Chapter 407 Linlin, aren’t you considering having a second child (yesterday)
"Sister Qiuling, what you said is okay. After a while, the strawberries in the garden will be ripe. Then I will ask Shujie to send some to the children." Cheng Xiaolin said after listening.
She paused for a moment and then said: "Speaking of toys, we really have a lot of cute toys at home that Mengmeng doesn't want to play with. Some of them haven't even been unpacked. Shujie also said before that he would take Mengmeng to set up a stall on the roadside for a dime.
I sold those toys for a piece of money, and I thought about selling them. If our kindergarten doesn’t dislike them, I’ll go back, wash all those toys, and donate them to the kindergarten.”
Hearing what Cheng Xiaolin said, Li Qiuling subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Mengmeng added: "Aunt Qiuling, I have a lot of them, but I don't want to play with them anymore. I'll give them to the kindergarten."
"Really?" Li Qiuling asked.
Cheng Xiaolin nodded: "Sister Qiuling, why don't you come home with me now, and we can pack it up together and bring it over later."
"Oh, I have to tell the principal about what happened." Li Qiuling hurriedly ran to the kindergarten office.
Halfway through, she was still thinking that she originally wanted to tell Cheng Xiaolin not to cause misunderstanding, but why did she end up donating things to the kindergarten?
I think about it, but because the kindergarten itself is not rich and usually accepts some less expensive donations such as toys, books, and comics, it is not so difficult to accept.
Li Qiuling told the director of the garden, Ding Dezhong, and even Ding Dezhong came over to express his gratitude to Cheng Xiaolin.
Li Qiuling followed Cheng Xiaolin and Mengmeng to their home. As soon as they entered the door, Mengmeng shook off her mother's hand and ran towards the house: "Aunt Qiuling, let me get it for you."
She is quite positive.
When Cheng Xiaolin saw it, she smiled and said, "That's what Mengmeng is like, she doesn't protect things."
"I also saw it this morning. She has a good personality and she especially likes to help other children." Li Qiuling said with a smile.
When she came to the house, Li Qiuling called Cao Zhenghu "Grandpa."
"Grandpa, I will take Sister Qiuling to pack up the toys that Mengmeng doesn't play with and give them to the children in the kindergarten." Cheng Xiaolin said to Cao Zhenghu.
"You guys go quickly." Cao Zhenghu pointed to the room where Mengmeng was, where the little guy was pulling toys.
While scratching, he shouted: "Oh, why is it so heavy?"
"Oh, why are there so many?"
Cheng Xiaolin and Li Qiuling were outside and couldn't help laughing when they heard Mengmeng's shouts.
Li Qiuling felt that he had overestimated the storage capacity of cute toys, but she followed Cheng Xiaolin into the house and saw that the room was full of toys. The piles on the wall opposite the door were half a meter high. She was so surprised.
"Why are there so many?" Li Qiuling was shocked.
"Some of them were brought back from the capital, and some were bought for her one after another in the past two years. They were piled up in one room. I was really worried. His father said he would take him to set up a stall.
Mengmeng is quite happy, but she hasn't found the time yet, so it would be perfect to donate it to our kindergarten," Cheng Xiaolin said.
After speaking, Cheng Xiaolin went to find two clean bags and brought them over: "Sister Qiuling, let's put them outside and wash them."
"You don't need me to take it back to the kindergarten to wash it, so as not to get water everywhere at home." Li Qiuling said.
Cheng Xiaolin said it was okay, but how could Li Qiuling have the nerve to bother others to wash the toys and give them to them.
"Aunt Qiuling, let me help you pack it." Mengmeng was very active. She held a toy in one hand and was about to pack it into the bag.
Cheng Xiaolin smiled when she saw it. She took another bag and put the toys in it.
While she was busy, Li Qiuling thought of something: "Linlin, don't you consider having a second child?"
"Your family can afford to pay the fine, and you don't have to worry about being able to support them. If you have a second child, these toys will be good for the little one to play with."
"Hey, let's talk about it later and buy it when the time comes." Cheng Xiaolin said with a smile.
After hearing what she said, Li Qiuling stopped asking and continued to pretend.
These toys are all Mengmeng doesn't want to play with. They are left here to collect dust. Not only do they take up space, but they cannot be disposed of. So we simply donate them to kill two birds with one stone.
Regardless of the type, they just put it into the bags. After a while, two bags were filled. Seeing that there were still many toys left in the room, Cheng Xiaolin said, "I'll get two more bags."
Li Qiuling also said: "No need, there are so many toys, enough to play with for a while."
"Sister Qiuling, it's okay. Clean up this room. I can put some other things." Cheng Xiaolin said this.
It took three more bags to fill up all the remaining toys.
Cheng Xiaolin and Li Qiuling moved outside to the electric tricycle compartment. Cheng Xiaolin rode the electric tricycle and took Li Qiuling to the kindergarten.
When the director of the garden, Ding Dezhong, saw the five bags of toys, he was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear and kept expressing his gratitude to Cheng Xiaolin.
It's almost 12 o'clock when I finish my work, but the kindergarten class starts at 2:30 p.m., so I don't worry about being late.
Everyone in the kindergarten was very happy to receive such a large gift.
After Cheng Xiaolin left, Ding Dezhong quickly organized several teachers to clean and dry these toys so that they could be taken out for the children to play with if there were activities.
And there are quite a lot of varieties of these toys.
"Our kindergarten owes a greater debt to Director Cao's family." Ding Dezhong sighed with emotion.
Others didn't know it, but the Dingde Center was a quiet place. He had never forgotten that the reason why the kindergarten could increase teachers' salaries was because Cao Shujie advocated merging the kindergartens in the three villages together, so as to increase the kindergarten's income.
Raise the salary of teachers, otherwise how can this problem be solved so easily?
"Teacher Li, you must take good care of Mengmeng." Ding Dezhong thought about it, and this was the only thing they could do.
Li Qiuling nodded: "Principal, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of every child in our class."
…
After Cao Shujie and Liu Furong finished chatting, he wanted to ask Liu Furong to have a meal together, but Liu Furong didn't go this time.
He told Cao Shujie: "I am handing over work to Comrade Zhenjiang. I will invite you another day."
This clearly states that he is the next senior official of the Qingshi Town Party.
Cao Shujie congratulated him, but Liu Furong said in turn: "Director Cao, I have a heavy burden and a lot of pressure. To be honest, whether we can build Qingshi Town well depends on you grassroots cadres, especially your Caojiazhuang.
As for the joint development alliance of Zhujiazhuang and Taodong Village, I look forward to seeing whether your follow-up results can be extended to the whole town."
Liu Furong had a clear mind. Qingshi Town wanted to make some changes. One was to develop the rural economy.
The second point is to build large-scale urban industrial enterprises and general family-style workshops. It would be fine if there were too many, but it would be useless if there were only a few.
Hearing what Liu Furong said, Cao Shujie chuckled and said nothing else.
Before leaving, Cao Shujie remembered something: "Secretary Liu, do you have cigarettes here?"
He changed his tune pretty quickly.
Liu Furong didn't think much. He opened the drawer and took out an unpacked box of cigarettes. He skillfully popped one out and handed it to Cao Shujie.
He also muttered: "I didn't see you smoking during the meal."
"Secretary Liu, do you have a whole box of cigarettes?" Cao Shujie pointed out and said, "I promised the uncle at the door to get him a box of cigarettes."
"Haha, Director Cao, please lend me some cigarettes and sell them." Liu Furong understood, and he was not angry. He opened the drawer again and took out two boxes of unopened cigarettes: "They are not good cigarettes, just don't dislike them.
"
"That's definitely not the case." Cao Shujie went downstairs with two boxes of cigarettes.
When he drove to the door, he got out of the car and took the two boxes of cigarettes to the security room at the door. He handed them to the old man inside: "Uncle, I just asked Mayor Liu for these. Please take them quickly."
"Oh, Director Cao, why do you really want it?" The old man looked surprised.
Cao Shujie said: "I, Cao Shujie, speak with every spit and nail."
Watching Cao Shujie drive away, the old man looked at the two packs of cigarettes in his hand with a funny expression on his face.
Not long after, Liu Furong came down from upstairs. He walked to the security room at the door and shouted: "Second uncle, how do you and Cao Shujie know each other?"
"Fu Rong, I don't know either. I was just wondering how he actually asked you for two packs of cigarettes." The old man thought Cao Shujie was just talking casually, but he didn't expect that he actually did it.
Speaking of which, this old man is Liu Furong's second uncle, a lonely old man who has never been married in his life.
He was originally a five-guaranteed household, but he felt like he had nothing to do at home all day long, so he asked Liu Furong to find him a job, and finally came to the town government to look after the gate.
Many people know about their relationship, which is quite normal. In addition, Old Man Liu is very honest and enthusiastic. He often helps others and no one makes any irresponsible remarks.
"It's okay, just suck it. I'll get you two in a few days." Liu Furong realized that he had ignored the people around him and also ignored some things around him.
Cao Shujie had nothing else to do in town, so he went to the delicatessen to buy some food and then drove back to Caojiazhuang.
When he got home, his grandfather, wife, and daughter were still eating.
Seeing him coming back, Cheng Xiaolin was surprised: "You didn't drink?"
"What kind of drink? Did I say drink?" Cao Shujie said hard.
He held the things he bought in his hand: "On Mengmeng's first day in kindergarten, I have been thinking about how you are doing. You can't stay in town, so you will come back after your work."
"Mengmeng, I bought freshly baked roast chicken and fried meat for you to add to your meal," Cao Shujie said.
"Wow, Dad, I'm amazing." Mengmeng babbled as she began to tell Cao Shujie about her performance in kindergarten.
Seeing her excited look, Cao Shujie felt relieved.
Cheng Xiaolin told her husband about donating toys to the kindergarten. She also relayed to her husband what Li Qiuling said about Mengmeng's behavior in the kindergarten. Finally, she said: "Shujie, your daughter is really generous. She gives away everything she has."
deliver."
"Hey, it doesn't matter if you have a few things. Just don't come and move into our house after you get married." Cao Shujie joked.
When Cao Zhenghu heard this, he stared at him and said, "What's wrong with moving to your house? That's just to look down on you."
"Haha, grandpa is right. Isn't there something reserved for Mengmeng?" Cao Shujie said.
I was so sleepy yesterday that my mind was not clear as I wrote.
