Chapter 669: The past is finally the past
In fact, Wu Dani knows her eldest sister-in-law's name.
Cao's eldest sister-in-law's older brother is named Zhao Dong, and the family members casually named the female baby Zhao Dongmei.
The meaning is Zhao Dong's younger sister.
After registering, Wu Dani looked at Zhao Dongmei who was standing in front without moving, and still said gently: "Eldest sister-in-law, if you have any questions, you can ask after registering. Next!"
So, Zhao Dongmei, who was still in a daze, was squeezed aside by Li Guihua who had been impatient for a long time.
"My name is Li Guihua, 42 years old this year..." Then she said enviously: "Oh my, Dani, your fountain pen handwriting is so beautiful. How did you practice it? Oh my, your hands don't have frostbite. Are you using Gala oil? I will also buy a box after the New Year. To say that our country is really good, 516 is also good, sanitary paper is given to us so cheaply. I have heard about this from the eldest daughter-in-law of my second aunt's cousin in the city. I was so envious when I heard it. I didn't expect that our rural women also have a day to use it..."
Blah blah, in short, it is words of gratitude, and it is also sincere.
Wu Dani looked at Li Guihua and said with a smile: "Yes, it's really good. Our days are getting better and better. Your information is registered. Next..."
Zhao Dongmei, who was squeezed out of the crowd, looked at Wu Dani who was surrounded in the middle, feeling as if she was looking at people from another world.
Before coming, she had thought about how to do it, such as ridiculing Wu Dani's previous miserable appearance, the stupid woman who couldn't give birth to a son, who deserved to serve the old Cao family and should be a cow and a horse...
But she looked at Wu Dani who was registering...
Wu Dani cut her hair short, looking clean and neat, and even wrapped a scarf, which is the kind of scarf worn by city people.
The cotton-padded jacket should be the previous one, but what she is wearing outside is a plaid outer shirt, looking much younger.
And, she really looks like those commune cadres.
No, she is a commune cadre.
Zhao Dongmei walked out in a daze. Always talking about the past, she talked about Wu Dani's past with others, and only one or two jealous people talked to her. Others didn't talk to her at all.
It seems that they didn't want to offend Wu Dani behind their backs.
Wu Dani glanced at Zhao Dongmei, mocking in her heart, but it couldn't be seen on her face.
This time is different from that time.
The past is finally the past.
Cao's second son stood at the gate. He had already cooked dinner, millet porridge, corn cakes, and Chinese cabbage stewed with frozen tofu with more than ten pieces of fat meat.
Most of them were left for his wife.
Those women were finished eating, but his wife hadn't eaten yet. Oh my, this public person is really not good.
He stood at the gate, his hands in the sleeves of his cotton-padded clothes, complaining but actually showing off: "... You say my wife, this day, went to the 516 Military Factory to attend a symposium in the morning. Oh my, they are all big cadres. Some cadres have a higher rank than our county magistrate. She has to attend a meeting in the commune in the afternoon, and she has to register when she gets home. This day is so busy..."
The man next to him curled his lips: "Cao's second son, you are really lucky. Your daughter and wife are both powerful. Your family is yin-strong and yang-weak. I'm afraid you won't be able to lift your head for a lifetime."
The man next to him stomped his feet and said: "Forget it, Cao's second son's life is much better than before. Look at what he wears and what he eats. In our village, who can compare?"
Cao's second son puffed out his chest. Yes, except for the brigade leader, who can compare?
No, maybe in a few years, even the brigade leader won't be able to compare with his family.
You have to know that there is money every month.
Fixed time, not like work points that have to be given once a year.
He didn't dare to manage the money. What if the old father and mother wanted it? It was all in his wife's hands.
His wife is a big cadre, and his father and mother didn't dare to reach out and ask for it.
But the filial piety that should be given is also given.
This big fat meat was also bought by his wife. He cut a piece for his father and mother according to his wife's instructions.
Wu Dani finally came back.
Cao's second son followed into the room, and the two children rushed up to call Mom.
Wu Dani's expression was soft, kissed each one, and said to Cao's second son: "Little Factory Manager Lu told me that our Zhaozhao entrusted someone to mail something. It is estimated that it will take half a month. Little Factory Manager Lu said that she will send it over when the time comes."
Cao's second son was stunned, looking at Wu Dani in disbelief, muttering: "Really or fake?"
Wu Dani: "Of course it's true. Is it necessary to lie to you?"
"Then why didn't you tell me when you came back from work?" Cao's second son asked hurriedly.
Wu Dani glanced at him: "If I told you, you would have gone to show off just now. This matter needs to be kept secret for the time being. Can you do it? If you can't, I won't tell you anything in the future."
Cao's second son immediately guaranteed: "I can definitely do it, wife, don't worry!"
Wu Dani smiled and said: "I will work hard, you must support me."
Cao's second son glared: "Look at me now, what else do you want me to... support you?"
The housework at home is basically done by him, and Wu Dani doesn't need to go to his father and mother's place, and the children are also managed by him...
Wu Dani first affirmed Cao's second son's contribution, and then said with a longing expression: "Today Little Factory Manager Lu talked to me about Zhaozhao, and others looked at me with envy. The female commune cadres from other communes who didn't know me took the initiative to come to me and talk. Although I can't be like Factory Manager Lu, I will work hard to learn from her. Everything we have today was brought by Zhaozhao and Little Factory Manager Lu. I will work hard, I will absolutely not smear Little Factory Manager Lu's face, and I will not lose Zhaozhao's face..."
Cao's second son looked at his wife blankly. At this moment, there was a place in his heart that became different.
January 1, 1977, all units in Jiangcheng, except those on duty, were almost on holiday.
Located in the north of Jiangcheng, the 516 Military Factory courtyard was exceptionally festive and lively today.
Slogans and banners celebrating the New Year and bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new could be seen everywhere.
People coming and going were all full of smiles.
Although it can't compare with the Spring Festival, the current New Year has a gala.
Big units have big galas, small units have small galas.
Lu Qiao looked at the time arrangement.
Good guy, she has to go to five units to attend the gala in one morning.
The first one is the neighborhood office.
The second is the food factory. There are many people here, including the crafts factory and the hygiene products factory. Fortunately, the food factory's conference room is large enough to hold them.
Wang Xiuxian is a capable person, and the gala organized with Lu Qiaoling is quite good.
There are singing, dancing, and various games.
Because there are many people, there are several venues for games.
The staff are busy, and there is a feeling of the Spring Festival Gala.
Lu Qiao stayed in the neighborhood office for a while and then hurriedly drove to the food factory. It just started here too.
No matter what, this is her home court.
Said the opening remarks, reviewed the past and looked forward to the future, and the thunderous applause almost blew off the roof of the auditorium.
The New Year gala is to make everyone happy. Lu Qiao didn't say too much nonsense, and then sang a song.
She sang "A Great River with Wide Waves"... ===== CHAPTER 670 =====
