I took some free time and went to the Platinum Coast construction site to exchange ideas with Xiaodi Fu. Although Xiaodi Fu is not married, he can't help but have many small ideas and communicates with multiple people to expand his ideas.
Unfortunately, Mr. Fu went to Lishan Village to supervise the progress of the hot spring villa. Mr. Lu walked around and saw no one. He wanted to leave, but when he saw the sign "Warehouse, no one allowed to enter", he couldn't help but think of the past.
Lou Xu, who was on the same team as him, came here on his recommendation. After thinking about it, he took a step forward and went over.
"Lou Xu!"
"Team Lu!" When Lou Xu saw him, he stood up in surprise and saluted.
"Is your leg healed?" Lu Chixiao's expression rarely showed, and he was happy for Lou Xu.
Lou Xu scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "It's not all good, but I can stand for a while. Speaking of which, I have to thank my sister-in-law."
Lu Chixiao raised his eyebrows and asked in his eyes why he was involved with the child's mother?
"Didn't my sister-in-law give us a jar of wine last year? It's a health wine that promotes blood circulation and told me to drink it before going to bed to activate my muscles and bones. Now I can stand occasionally and walk a few steps without crutches."
Lu Chixiao understood clearly that it must be the health wine made by the child's mother that worked.
"Since the wine your sister-in-law made is good for your legs, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you keep drinking for a while, you might be able to recover."
Lou Xu scratched his head in embarrassment: "I think this wine is so good, it must be very expensive. Lu Lie, Xinxin and I have been helped so much by you. After my operation failed, I thought that this life was over. Until
You came to me, gave me this job, and arranged such a good job for Xinxin, I, I..."
Lou Xu choked up and couldn't speak anymore.
Lu Chixiao patted him on the shoulder: "It's true that I introduced you to work, but I don't have anything to do with you later. Ayang told me that you do your best at work and he feels at ease when the warehouse is left to you. Your wife
I have nothing to do with it. Don’t talk nonsense, okay? There is an ambiguity! She was recognized by my mother and your sister-in-law. They thought she was careful at work and patient with the children, so she was allowed to shoulder the responsibility of the principal. Lou Xu
, it’s not difficult to give opportunities, but it’s difficult to seize them.”
After coming out of the construction site, Lu Chixiao felt a lot of emotions.
In fact, there are retired teammates every year. After retirement, some return to their hometowns to marry, have children, and live a stable life, and some rely on their skills to work as bodyguards for the rich. But most of them are like Lou Xu, who were injured during their service.
He retired due to injury and became seriously disabled - he couldn't find a stable job, his life was affected, and he even had no security.
These people, who once defended their home and country, tried their best, not to mention throwing their lives, but they were truly men who shed their blood. Now they live at the bottom of society and are forced to make a living.
"What are you thinking about? So serious."
Xu Suizhu came back from get off work and found the room dark.
"Why don't you turn on the lights? Where are Doudou and the others?"
Only then did Mr. Lu suddenly remember: It’s over! His son hasn’t picked up yet.
Fortunately, it is close to the school, so I can reach it in just a few steps with my long legs.
Panting, I rushed to the nursery and found that none of the children had left. They were sitting in rows on small benches, listening attentively to Zhuang Yi's story.
The other parents are quite experienced - they come with their jobs: those who knit sweaters, those who knit straw hats... they sit at the door and wait while talking and laughing. It is rare that the children are willing to sit quietly without disturbing them. Listening to stories
After that, we will take you home for dinner.
Lu Chixiao wiped his face and let out a long breath.
Xu Suizhu also arrived panting, not worried about her son.
The teacher would not let the child out of the kindergarten without a parent picking him up. She was worried about Baozi's father.
"Are you worried?" She thought for a while and suggested, "Take a walk around the playground twice?"
You can't squat among a group of aunts and have a heart-to-heart talk, right?
Boss Lu didn't object, so the young couple started going around in circles on the middle school playground.
"I went to the construction site today to look for Ayang, but he was not here. I met Lou Xu and chatted for a few words."
As for why you went to the construction site to find Mr. Fu... Needless to say, right? How embarrassing!
Xu Suizhu asked: "Is Lou Xu's leg okay?"
"After drinking the health wine you gave me, I can already walk a few steps. I seem to be in good spirits. It shows that my confidence has increased. It is more effective than any panacea."
At this point, Lu Chixiao paused and his voice dropped a few degrees: "Daughter-in-law, do we have a chance to develop the multi-vitamin liquid and health care liquid you drew?"
Xu Suizhu looked up at him, not quite understanding what he meant.
Lu Chixiao muttered: "There are too many retired brothers like Lou Xu. Even if the organization arranges work, life is still inconvenient. You see, those who were recruited at the same time as Dagao and Xiaogao have sound limbs and are jumping around like me.
.Those who were injured or disabled, even if I didn’t ask for anything, they gave up on their own initiative because they were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to do the job, and they were even more afraid of hurting me..."
Xu Suizhu was moved after hearing this. She stepped forward, held his hand, and intertwined their fingers.
"Lu Chixiao."
Lu Chixiao nodded at her and shook his head: "I just want to find someone to talk to. I know this matter is not urgent."
Xu Suizhu nodded, indeed there was no rush. Interstellar products are not easy to develop.
But - "Those of your brothers who have retired and are not living as they wish, I have a solution."
Didn't she bring up the idea of a handicraft street with Wang County? Wang County discussed it with the provincial personnel responsible for the fjord scenic spot development project and found it feasible.
However, there are only a few crafts passed down by the ancestors. Three or five shops cannot support a street. Xu Suizhu thought, why not set up some stalls and rent them to some merchants to sell specialties?
For example, the straw hats and head flowers produced by the township-run factory; the fruits grown in Lishan Village, the chickens and ducks raised; and the orchids picked by people in the mountains...
You can also rent a few stalls and sell some of Fuju Island’s surplus products.
In short, let the "scenic spot street" come alive completely.
This requires manpower.
"You want me to recruit them to look after the stalls for us?" Lu Chixiao still didn't understand.
"Yes. Not only do we need manpower to look after the stalls on one street, but when the resort on the island is built and starts to receive tourists, we will also need manpower to set up several stalls selling fruits, drinks, and barbecues. Instead of recruiting people from other villages who don't know their roots,
I trust the brothers who have been with you through life and death more."
Lu Chixiao was moved: "Think about it, some of them have inconvenient legs and feet and need crutches to support them; some of them have no hands and can't become a hero with one arm..."
"I know." Xu Suizhu turned her head to meet his gaze, her eyes full of light, "It's okay to help look after the stalls and collect money, right? After all, you need one person to guard such a position, why not use one of your own? You can rest assured about the treatment, and your own people can also pay for it.
Can I be treated badly?"
Lu Chixiao laughed and called her gently: "Mom."
Xu Suizhu raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "Hmm? Any other questions?"
"No, I just want to say: You are so beautiful! A beautiful person and a beautiful heart!"
Xu Suizhu burst into laughter. It's not normal for this guy not to have convulsions for a day!
