Chapter 840

Lu Qiaoge found that this woman Xiao Ninglu was really thick-skinned, as if that unpleasantness at the Friendship Hotel that day had never happened.

She was much more composed, no longer showing off by biting words and citing classics, just standing silently behind Chairman Feng, acting as a silent shadow.

When parting, Xiao Ninglu even politely invited Lu Qiaoge: "Miss Lu, if possible, you are welcome to visit Hong Kong, I will definitely do my best as a host and take you to appreciate the local customs."

Hmm, she looks like a normal person now.

All in all, plus some chores handled during the holiday, Lu Qiaoge's life was exceptionally fulfilling.

Isn't it, under the warm spring sun, Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge were strolling slowly near the campus, and what they were talking about was exactly these things.

"... Director Bai also let go, approving me for half a month's leave. That is to say, I don't have to report to the General Administration of Foreign Trade for this half month." Lu Qiaoge said this with a relaxed smile between her brows.

Qin Hengzhi heard this, but his brows furrowed slightly imperceptibly, turning his head to look at his wife seriously: "Qiao Ge, do you feel tired from working like this?"

In his heart, Qiao Ge didn't need to run around like this at all.

Even if she didn't do anything, just playing carefree at home with Hua Hua, Xiao Hei, and the others, he felt it was very good.

He had enough confidence to protect her for a lifetime of peace, so she never had to worry about her livelihood.

He even imagined that if he could find a vast world leaning against the mountains and rivers, divide it into private ownership, and build it into a paradise for Qiao Ge and small animals, how good that would be.

Although the domestic environment does not allow it yet, he already has the way and plan, just waiting for the time to mature.

Of course, the premise of all this is what kind of life Qiao Ge herself wants.

Lu Qiaoge stopped, turned her head to look at him, her clear eyes carrying inquiry: "Why ask this suddenly?"

"I'm just worried that you'll be tired." Qin Hengzhi's voice was low and gentle.

"Not tired," Lu Qiaoge shook her head, her tone light: "I know how to arrange the rhythm. Moreover, every time I accomplish something, I have a real sense of accomplishment. To put it broadly, I am making a meager contribution to the country; to put it small, I am also realizing my own value. Of course..." Lu Qiaoge paused: "The most direct reason is—I like this fulfilling life."

Seeing her high-spirited, Qin Hengzhi didn't ask any more, just sighed lightly in his heart.

The capable work more, and the capable are also more tired; he felt sorry for her, but also respected her choice.

The only thing he could do was to clear away those unnecessary troubles for her, so that she could do what she wanted to do without distraction.

Actually, Lu Qiaoge has been a mediator for so long, so she naturally knows that if married female comrades in this era want to take care of both career and family, the difficulty is really too great.

Both are working, and after returning home, taking care of children and cooking is the woman's job, and cleaning the house and doing housework is still the woman's job.

Even if this woman earns more than the man, it is still unavoidable.

This seems to be the woman's vocation.

Many times it is also helpless.

The two were about to continue walking forward, when a sudden noise in front made them have to stop.

It was the start of the school season, and there were people coming and going near the school gate, which was very lively.

Different from the strangeness of the first semester, at this moment, most of the students were already familiar with each other, and seeing the dispute in this corner of the roadside, it attracted a lot of attention very quickly.

Lu Qiaoge looked in the direction of the sound, only to see an old lady of about sixty, dressed simply but with an arrogant expression, pointing at a young female student and scolding her.

That female student was Lu Qiaoge's classmate Jin Yurong.

"... Jin Yurong, you also have to be considerate of me, my daughter gave birth to a child in another place, I, as a mother, can't help with anything else, but I should go to serve the confinement, right?

At the beginning, I told you that you could apply for a year of suspension, and come to school when the child is older. It's not that the school doesn't let you go!

But you insisted on coming, saying that you could solve the child's affairs yourself.

What was the result? You stuffed the child into my arms and patted your butt and came to school!"

The old lady's voice was not small, her speaking speed was very fast, and the spit almost sprayed on Jin Yurong's face: "I'll put it here now, I won't take your two children for a day! I've already bought the train ticket, and I'll go to Haicheng early tomorrow morning!"

Jin Yurong's face flushed red, mixed with embarrassment, anger, and nowhere to hide.

She tightly gripped the strap of the canvas bag in her hand, her knuckles turned white from the force, and her voice was very low, almost pleading: "Mom, can we talk about it when we get home? Why do you have to be here..."

"Why say it here? Because you always hide from me! I've said so many times to discuss it, you either say you're busy or you're tired! Today you must give me an explanation!" The old lady was relentless, and her volume was even higher.

At this time, a tall young man wearing overalls squeezed into the crowd; it was Jin Yurong's husband.

Obviously, he followed later, and at this time he joined the battle with an impatient face, pointing his finger at Jin Yurong: "Mom is right! Jin Yurong, have a conscience, okay? Which family's daughter-in-law is like you? Ignoring the children and running to college yourself? Mom is old, and she has to worry about the children for you. How can you bear it? If you really want to go to school, bring the children to school!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a subtle discussion in the crowd.

Some people sympathized with the old lady, thinking that Jin Yurong really didn't care about the family.

Some people thought the husband's words were mean, but because of face, most of them just watched silently.

Jin Yurong was trembling all over from her husband's words, raised her head to stare at him, her lips moved, but in the end, no sound came out, only the water in her eyes was spinning.

"That's right, Yurong, you should go back and discuss it with your mother-in-law. Let's help you ask the teacher for leave first." The enthusiastic female classmate Chai Juan tried to smooth things over.

Jin Yurong looked at the old lady, her voice hoarse: "Mom, then... let's go back first."

The old lady hummed triumphantly and turned to walk outside the school gate first.

Jin Yurong carried the heavy canvas bag, lowered her head, and followed behind like a defeated general, her thin back looking particularly thin and helpless in the bustling crowd.

And that man followed behind with a sneer, not caring about Jin Yurong at all.

At this time, a female classmate really couldn't stand it, frowned and said: "This male comrade. You are a man anyway, your wife is carrying such a heavy canvas bag, why don't you care?"

Unexpectedly, this man not only didn't feel ashamed, but said confidently: "Isn't she capable? Since she is so capable, what is carrying a bag?"

The female classmate was so angry that she couldn't speak.

And Jin Yurong's face was even uglier.

Knowing that she shouldn't vent her anger, and knowing that the female classmate was kind to help her, but why help if she couldn't help, instead giving her husband a chance to say mean things.
