Chapter 467: Should manage it or not
Qin Hengzhi stopped the bicycle and turned his head to look at the thoughtful Lu Qiao.
Actually, even if he didn't say it like that, according to Qiao's character, she wouldn't really stand idly by.
But he wanted to stand with her.
Under circumstances where it was not feasible, he would absolutely not support her doing it.
Even if Lu Qiao had the ability, she had no obligation to be responsible for someone else's life.
Lu Qiao smiled at him: "Hmm, I know."
Should manage it or not.
After all, she knew it, and she had even told Qu Caifeng.
But according to her understanding, the current Qu Caifeng was probably very happy because she hadn't been able to deal with her.
Therefore, Qu Caifeng felt she had won against her, and now she was probably very smug.
The two no longer chatted about this topic; after all, in Lu Qiao's view, these were all small matters. Instead, they talked about the trip to Beidu and Haicheng.
This time, Lu Qiao was prepared to take the tabby cat and the others along. It was fine if the big dogfish wanted to go too, but they might need to stay in the space the whole time.
Lu Qiao wouldn't tell Qin Hengzhi about the big dogfish and the others, but she could tell him about the tabby cat. After all, if the tabby cat wasn't home, the first one to discover it would definitely be Qin Hengzhi.
The two chatted idly and soon arrived home.
The bicycle was placed in the courtyard, and Qin Hengzhi spontaneously went to chop wood.
Today, the Lu family was also very lively.
Meng Xia saw Lu Qiao return and said: "Qiao, Secretary Xiao Su came just now. She happened to be in North City, and she told me that your house was requisitioned at the original price. After the final statistics are done, you can take the voucher to the preparatory office's finance department to collect the money."
Secretary Xiao Su was Big Sister Su.
She was now the deputy factory director of the branch factory. Now that the factory building was completed, but after Xiang Yang's repeated expansions, Deputy Bureau Chief Zhou decided to make preparations for expansion in advance.
Then, the higher-ups smoothly approved this area in the north of the city to the branch factory.
As for the residents here, they were all given new houses. People at this time had good awareness, and they wouldn't take the opportunity to open their mouths like lions; as long as there was a place to live and the conditions were similar, they all accepted it quite reasonably.
Lu Qiao thought in her heart that when she had time, she still needed to deal with the basement of the house in the north of the city.
Grandma Lu said: "Our family's area is also being registered; people came in the afternoon too."
Lu Qiao knew about this and said: "It's estimated that we'll have to move around May Day."
Qin Hengzhi, who was sitting on a stool chopping wood, stated again: "You can live in that house of mine."
Lu Da, who was sitting on the side wanting to smoke but not daring to, said directly: "No, it's barely okay for your Second Aunt to live there, but we are all workers in the factory, it's not good to go and live there. Although it's all one big courtyard, there are all kinds of people. By then, not only will you, Hengzhi, be pointed at, but we will be the same..."
Speaking of this, Lu Da and Meng Xia looked at each other.
If Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiao were married, then the house wouldn't need to be returned.
But until now, Qiao had no intention of getting married.
And Qin Hengzhi wasn't the kind of jerk who only dated without getting married, so the root cause still lay with their own daughter.
It wasn't good to ask in front of Qin Hengzhi, so Meng Xia turned and said: "The registration people said that under smooth circumstances, everyone will be able to move in by the end of this year. Actually, there aren't many households that need to be arranged; the factory is preparing to build about fifty buildings, basically all in the bungalow area and wasteland."
Lu Xiaosi didn't care about these; anyway, wherever his parents were, he was there.
He liked Qin Hengzhi; Qin Hengzhi chopped wood, and he also busied himself, stacking the chopped firewood neatly.
But he still told his family what he knew and heard.
"I heard from my classmates that most of them are arranged in the technical school's dormitory."
Meng Xia's eyes lit up: "The technical school is not bad; you can set up a stove in the corridor to cook."
Lu Qiao: "Those who want to rent a house can also do so; the unit will cover half of the rent."
Lu Da laughed: "That's great, it reduces a lot of burden."
Qin Hengzhi put down the axe. They had talked for a long time, but when they moved next month, where they would live hadn't been discussed yet.
But Uncle Lu clearly didn't want to get involved with him.
Qin Hengzhi glanced at Lu Qiao.
Lu Qiao said: "Live in the technical school. You can still continue to be with your old neighbors. By then, it will be divided according to blocks. The dormitory has bunk beds, so you can make a partition in the middle. It won't be a big problem to hold on for a few months."
Qin Hengzhi didn't insist anymore.
"The end of the year is the slowest plan." Speaking of this, Qin Hengzhi smiled: "Because of the Food Factory, the materials are basically all ready now, we have our own construction company, and the local area is also actively supporting. If everything goes smoothly, the construction period can be shortened by at least one month."
Lu Zhiyu said pleasantly surprised: "Then that means we can live in the new house in November?"
Qin Hengzhi nodded: "About that."
Lu Qiao, however, suddenly remembered the big event in July.
The big event in January didn't happen, but what about March, July, September...
Many things had changed now.
This... would it change?
It was also at this time that Su Hui, who was resting in the room, suddenly let out an 'Ouch'.
Grandma Lu reacted quickly and was the first to run to her grandson's room.
Lu Zhiguo hadn't finished work yet; these few days the transport task was tight, and he had been working overtime.
Because her belly was big, Meng Xia didn't let her do anything, and the Food Factory also gave Su Hui a holiday.
Now maternity leave was very good; some units could give it for three years.
And Su Hui heard Lu Qiao's voice and wanted to go out, but felt something was wrong.
But her due date was in three days.
Grandma Lu entered the room, asked, and immediately said: "This is about to give birth. That, eldest daughter-in-law, hurry in, Su Hui seems to be about to give birth..."
Qin Hengzhi over there immediately stood up: "I'll go find a car, I'll be back immediately."
Qin Hengzhi, with extremely strong executive power, didn't wait for the Lu family to speak, and he had already left.
Lu Qiao stood in the courtyard, a bit dazed.
After all, this was truly the first time she had experienced this.
"Grandma, Mom, do I need to take anything?"
Meng Xia said: "No, no, diapers and such are all prepared. Don't rummage around, I put them in a fixed place. Old Lu, you go boil the dumplings, Qiao, you go help your sister-in-law find a change of clothes..."
The small courtyard, which was originally orderly, suddenly became a bit busy and chaotic.
Mainly because it was too sudden.
The Lu family was still looking for things, but Qin Hengzhi had actually arrived at the Lu family's front gate with the car in the shortest possible time.
No one knew how he managed to do it.
Lu Qiao, without hesitation, picked up her sister-in-law and got into the car. Halfway, they met Lu Zhiguo who was returning home, so he threw his bicycle on the side of the road and followed them into the car.
It wasn't exactly chaotic, but it was still different from usual days.
Lu Da was busy running around; there were only him and Xiaosi at home, and even Grandma had followed to the hospital.
Lu Zhiyu also wanted to go, but the family wouldn't let him.
Lu Da put the boiled dumplings into lunch boxes, filling five large lunch boxes in total. He hurriedly ate a mouthful, then rode his bicycle, let Lu Zhiyu watch the house, and rushed to the hospital.
When he arrived, the dumplings were still warm, but Qin Hengzhi had already had the canteen's master chef boil hot chicken egg noodles for everyone.
Meng Xia said: "Leave three boxes on the windowsill, and give the other two boxes to the canteen's master chef; they started a fire just now to specially make the chicken egg noodles..."
Lu Da nodded: "Okay, I'll go right now, that, what..." ===== CHAPTER 468 =====
