Chapter 442: We have three years of good days now

~8 min read 1,538 words

Shao Le solved this Old Laizi cleanly and neatly this time, and Lu Qiao also looked at him with new eyes.

In the future, the management personnel needed by the food factory would not be a small number.

This was a cornerstone of her future grand plan. It was not easy to talk about loyalty or not in this era, but the minimum requirement was to be wholehearted. Her managers had to be twisted into a rope.

Therefore, Shao Le was worth cultivating.

Shao Le thanked Lu Qiao and also reported this matter to the leadership.

Old Hu gave him a reassurance pill: Just continue to do your work as usual; this matter wouldn't affect him. On the contrary, he would be commended. After all, it was justice to destroy relatives; if this wasn't commended, what was?

Shao Le could be considered relieved.

There were Wu Ming and Xiaoman at the Wagouzi Brigade. He left money and things, believing that this New Year could be spent quite well.

As for arranging work and life, he didn't have that ability yet, so naturally he wouldn't tell them, so as not to make them happy for nothing if he couldn't do it.

And although he and them were relatives with blood ties, they couldn't get close, always carrying a faint rift.

This could only be left to nature and talked about slowly later.

But in fact, the people of the Wagouzi Brigade all envied Wu Ming and Zhao Xiaoman.

Zhao younger brother and Zhao younger sister didn't suffer from hunger and cold and couldn't live because their father was arrested.

Instead, life suddenly became bright.

They didn't see smiles on weekdays, but at this time, their faces were filled with warm smiles.

Although it was still that dilapidated thatched cottage, it was cleaned up by Xiaoman and the younger sister in a day.

But in fact, it was empty, and there was nothing to clean up, but they were still happy.

Without that five-poison-complete person who didn't treat them children as human beings, who didn't beat them and scold them every day, and who was lazy and didn't do any work, that so-called biological father, they would be happy even if they went begging.

The brother who had just been recognized said that this time their father would be sentenced to at least three years.

That is to say, they would have three years of good days.

And if he didn't perform well inside, he would add more.

But three years was enough for them to do many things.

In three years, they would all be over twenty.

Xiaoman felt it was enough time to find a good partner for the younger sister to marry off, and the younger brother could also find a fierce wife. The biological brother Shao Le left them one hundred yuan, and they could pay off the debts owed by Old Zhao Laizi.

Even so, there would still be more than seventy yuan left.

Because the Zhao siblings were all there, Wu Ming wanted to avoid it, but Zhao younger brother grabbed him and said sincerely: "Brother Xiaoming, you have helped us a lot over the years; you are just like our own brother."

Wu Ming smiled honestly and didn't decline, but smiled at Xiaoman on the edge of the kang.

Hmm, soon this would be his wife.

It was really too happy.

Zhao Xiaoman put the money on the kang, and next to it was a pile of things. She said: "That... our biological brother said, we can manage this money ourselves. I think this way, keep it for now and don't move it. When the New Year comes, I'll buy some pastries and yellow peach canned food to visit the brigade leader's house.

The brigade is short of a scorekeeper now. I see the brigade leader is so polite to my brother. For my brother's sake, he can accommodate it. During this period, I will definitely find a good marriage for you, sister.

Younger brother, don't be anxious, work honestly in the brigade. If there is a suitable one, sister will introduce it to you. Try to complete these before our dad comes out."

By then, she would have been married long ago.

If the younger brother and younger sister also had their own families and had relatives by their side, they wouldn't live in the shadow of Old Zhao Laizi every day.

The younger brother wouldn't stare at him tightly, worrying that he would sell the younger sister if he wasn't careful.

Because he had this idea more than once.

It was just that she went to the commune to report him once, and on the surface, he didn't dare to mention it again.

Zhao younger brother and Zhao younger sister listened to Zhao Xiaoman on weekdays, and at this time, they had no opinion at all, just listening obediently.

Zhao Xiaoman said like the head of the family: "Keep some of these meat cans, sausages, and rice for the New Year, and I'm preparing to find someone to exchange the others for coarse grain. In that way, you can persist for half a year.

Although our biological brother is good to us, we didn't grow up together since we were young. He is married now, and we can't help him with anything, so we can't add trouble to him. Now that he can take care of us like this, really... younger brother, younger sister, we must be grateful to our brother and sister-in-law."

"Second sister, we listen to whatever you say."

"Don't exchange all of them. You have suffered too much over the years. This big mountain is finally going to be moved away for a few years. Let's spend the New Year well. My mother-in-law has exchanged a lot of yellow rice flour. I will wrap more bean buns and prepare more dry food.

I think this way, send some to Brother Yonggang too; he likes to eat the sticky bean buns I wrap.

Send some to our biological brother too, and take some black fungus, mushrooms, and dried vegetables we picked to them.

What do you say?"

Zhao younger brother and Zhao younger sister nodded in unison: "Second sister, you decide."

Wu Ming smiled on the side.

His wife is capable.

However, Zhao younger sister said sadly: "Brother Yonggang hasn't come since he left. Brother doesn't want us anymore, right?"

Zhao Xiaoman's expression was dim, and she said: "What kind of life he lived here, we all know. Clearly he should have had a better future, but it was all ruined by our dad and mom. It's good enough that he doesn't hate us."

Wu Ming said bluntly on the side: "Looking at your biological brother's appearance, you know that if it weren't for the deliberate mistake back then, Yonggang might have gone to university."

Shao Yonggang was also very smart. His academic performance was good back then, but their mother might have had a guilty conscience and insisted on not letting him study.

Later, the atmosphere for studying wasn't strong, so it was just left like that.

Zhao younger sister choked up and said: "He doesn't recognize me, but I have always regarded him as my brother. Without him, second sister, and you younger brother protecting me all these years, our dad and mom... I don't know how many times they would have sold me."

As she spoke, she cried sadly.

Zhao Xiaoman hugged her, patted her back lightly, and said: "It's okay, we have three years of good days now. These three years we must be good, become powerful, like our biological brother. By then, when Old Zhao Laizi comes back, he won't dare to do anything to us."

Little Cangcang, who was wandering around in its spare time, also wanted to know about Shao Le's family, so it ran to the Wagouzi Brigade and happened to encounter this scene. After coming back, it told Lu Qiao.

Lu Qiao raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Zhao Xiaoman... is really quite powerful!

To be able to protect the only younger sister in such a difficult situation is also rare.

She was a person she hoped to give a chance to change her destiny.

But this had to wait a bit.

During the morning meeting, Lu Qiao suggested to Old Hu that before the Spring Festival, a check should be carried out on the two residential buildings in the third district that were affected by the last earthquake, and those with cracks should be stabilized. Although it was winter and there was no way to construct outdoors, they could think of ways to carry it out indoors.

Old Hu felt it was very sudden, but felt that this was a problem Lu Qiao had discovered.

So he asked Lu Qiao: "When do you want to start?"

"Today. I found that many educated youth who inserted teams are going home for the New Year. Let's first form an educated youth assault team, pay wages by the day, two yuan a day, and they can eat for free in the food factory's canteen at noon. This expense will be borne by the food factory."

Lu Qiao said heroically. ===== CHAPTER 443 =====
