Chapter 202: Her work unit is the worst

~8 min read 1,512 words

Lu Qiao stood at the gate waiting for Qin Hengzhi to pick her up.

The old turtle didn't predict wrong; today's weather is indeed very good.

A few thin wisps of clouds, sun-baked to almost transparent, floated lazily in the deep blue sky.

The distant mountains were lush and green, and occasionally a breeze blew, and the leaves of the white poplar trees shook down a ground of fine light spots.

It can be called a high sky and light clouds, and the scenery is pleasant.

Yesterday, she spent the morning at Qin Hengzhi's place, and then went to the cafeteria for a meal.

Every big cafeteria seems to have its own characteristics. The best-tasting thing in the military representative office is the braised pork with big flower rolls and tofu soup.

Qin Hengzhi said that on weekdays, it is still mainly big steamed buns, after all, this is the most hunger-resistant.

After eating, Qin Hengzhi sent Lu Qiao out of the military representative office. He also had to go to the workshop, so he just walked a section of the road with her.

On the way, he told Lu Qiao what to wear and what to bring for convenience and comfort tomorrow.

He also introduced the three comrades and their families or partners he was going to tomorrow.

They are all Qin Hengzhi's comrades from Beijing. When Qin Hengzhi was a battalion commander, one was an instructor, another was a deputy battalion commander, and Brother Chen was Qin Hengzhi's old squad leader. When he retired, he also reached the company level. They are all from Jiangcheng and have relatively good relationships.

After coming, they naturally got in touch, but there was never a chance to get together.

It was unexpected that because of the steel ingot incident, he was ordered to come to 516 in a crisis, met Lu Qiao, and finally stayed to take office.

Lu Qiao had met one of them, Brother Chen from the Foreign Trade Bureau warehouse.

At this time, Lu Qiao stood under the tree, with Huahua, who insisted on following, at her feet.

Little Four is an obedient child. Actually, he also wanted to follow, but he held back.

Lu Qiao bought today's movie tickets for her obedient little brother. They were for the daytime session. She bought three tickets. He had two newly met little partners, and they played very well. Lu Qiao let the three of them go to the movies.

Little Four excitedly ran to find his little partners early in the morning with the movie tickets and went to the cinema with his equally excited little partners.

But Huahua couldn't be dismissed, so she had to bring it along.

Just don't know if the other three will dislike cats.

Except for the obedient Mouse One and Little Cangcang, Lu Qiao didn't plan to manage the others. Let them go if they want; anyway, Qin Hengzhi had long suspected it.

She raised her wrist to look at her watch: 7:30. Qin Hengzhi should be coming soon.

It must be admitted that she was still looking forward to it.

Not long after, she saw Qin Hengzhi's tall and straight figure.

Qin Hengzhi was wearing a white shirt with his cuffs rolled up, revealing strong and powerful arms.

Seeing Lu Qiao waiting for him, his eyes seemed to be filled with starlight, and his lips hung with a faint smile.

Obviously, he was in a very good mood.

He first picked up the cat, then picked up the canvas bag at Lu Qiao's feet, his eyes smiling, "We will meet them outside the city."

Lu Qiao glanced at the open trunk and asked, "What about the things?" Qin Hengzhi paused and whispered, "I brought a camera; it's in the canvas bag."

Under normal circumstances, men and women who are dating won't take photos together.

Their first group photo is basically their wedding photo.

If they could take photos together, and it was with Qiao's consent, that would definitely be something that made him happy to the point of flying.

Lu Qiao swept a glance at him and said, "I'm asking about the hunting rifle, not the camera."

Qin Hengzhi: "..."

He pointed to the military green canvas bag in the corner: "This is something I assembled myself."

Lu Qiao's eyes brightened, and she asked Qin Hengzhi, "Can I use it?"

Qin Hengzhi directly vetoed, "Definitely not today."

"When can I?"

Qin Hengzhi closed the trunk, opened the car door to let Lu Qiao sit in, and said, "I'll take you to the shooting range another day."

Huahua was on Lu Qiao's lap and meowed a few times: 【Little Master, aren't you fishing? Why are you hunting? Are you hunting big gray wolves, wild boars, or the Siberian tiger that just came to Yuanbao Mountain?】

Hey, Yuanbao Mountain actually has a new Siberian tiger?

Lu Qiao didn't really want to communicate with the Siberian tiger. This guy is too fierce. If it runs to where humans are, the consequences will be unimaginable.

She asked Qin Hengzhi, "Is the place we are going deep in the mountains?"

Qin Hengzhi shook his head with a smile, "It's just at the foot of the mountain. There is no road in the mountains, and the car can't drive in, which is very inconvenient."

Lu Qiao felt relieved.

Soon they left the city, and Lu Qiao saw a jeep parked on the side of the road at a glance.

Originally, a few people were standing by the car, and at this time they were all walking towards their car.

Three men and three women; don't know how they squeezed into one car.

Lu Qiao estimated that there must be one in the trunk.

Now individuals don't have cars, and there are no strict requirements for such vehicles.

Moreover, jeeps are also in short supply. Let alone borrowing, even if you want to sit, you can't easily sit in one.

So the management is naturally loose.

The first one to walk over was a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He bumped fists with Qin Hengzhi, and then smiled and went to look at Lu Qiao.

Qin Hengzhi coughed lightly and introduced, "This is Brother Wang Zhiguo, who was assigned to the Public Security Bureau after retiring."

Following closely was a man who was not tall and had an ordinary appearance.

But one look at his eyes and you could tell this person also had skills.

Qin Hengzhi introduced, "This is Brother Liu Dahui."

Working in the District Government.

It's the same system as Su Hongmei, but not in the same district.

They were all older than Qin Hengzhi. Chen Feng smiled and said, "We know each other, so no need for introductions."

Lu Qiao politely greeted them one by one.

Wang Zhiguo laughed heartily, and then they introduced their respective lovers and partners.

Wang Zhiguo's lover is named Li Xiuying, a salesperson at the First Department Store. She looks carefree. Brother Chen's lover is named Dong Xiangqin, working in the Archives Bureau.

Liu Dahui's partner is named Zhou Shanshan. She is taller than Liu Dahui, wears a ponytail, and is very beautiful.

She works in the Industrial Bureau and gave a reserved "hmm," but her eyes were sizing up the clothes and shoes Lu Qiao was wearing.

Going out to play in the mountains, even if there is a car, Lu Qiao doesn't plan to wear a skirt.

She is wearing a sky-blue linen suit. Although it is not crisp and has no trouser lines, it is really comfortable to wear.

Zhou Shanshan is wearing a pink floral dress and leather sandals. She specifically looked at Lu Qiao's shoes, which were a pair of Warrior shoes, and she pursed her lips.

No matter how good Warrior shoes are, they can't compare to her leather sandals.

"Let's go since everyone is here." Qin Hengzhi opened the jeep door and said to Wang Zhiguo, "I'll lead the way in front; you just follow."

Eight people and one cat sat into two jeeps respectively.

Lu Qiao sat next to Qin Hengzhi, and behind were Zhou Shanshan and the other two.

As soon as the car started, Li Xiuying asked, "Comrade Little Lu, what work do you do in the neighborhood office?"

Compared to this, it seems Lu Qiao's work is the worst.

"I am a mediator in the neighborhood office," Lu Qiao replied.

"Mediator?" Zhou Shanshan suddenly interrupted, her voice thin, carrying a sarcasm she thought others couldn't hear: "Is it the work of dealing with those grandpas and grandmas all day long?"

The atmosphere in the car suddenly stagnated.

Lu Qiao felt Qin Hengzhi also stagnate for a moment.

It seems he didn't expect his comrade's partner to speak so impolitely.

Lu Qiao swept a faint glance at Qin Hengzhi, signaling him not to speak. She stroked the cat's head and curled her lips into a lukewarm smile: "Sister Zhou, what you said is not wrong, but you only said the first part."
