break out of the ice

Chapter 147
Shi Jingqi took it, and found that it actually included the number of poultry and livestock raised by Father Shi and Father Liu, as well as the current market prices. After calculation, it should add up to 9000 yuan.

Shi Jingqi read it, but didn't count, and handed the paper to Liu Qinqin.

Liu Qinqin took it over, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "Dad, it's not that we don't have money, so it's hard work for you not to earn this."

Liu's father glared at Liu Qinqin: "Do you think your father and I raise these cattle and sheep to earn money for you?"

Liu Qinqin and Shi Jingqi looked at each other. Could it be that the two old people have other things to spend money on?

Then they looked at their fathers separately, who is it for us?
"That's right, it's not for you, it's for Dunzi and Little Pomegranate." Father Shi said.

Isn't it all the same.

"We have to worry about children's affairs, so don't worry about it." Shi Jingqi followed Father Shi's topic and began to persuade him.

Father Shi didn't agree with Shi Jingqi's words, he waved his hands and said, "It's time to feed the chicken, I'll feed the chicken, let your father tell you."

After finishing speaking, he got up and walked towards the chicken pen.

Liu's father shouted: "Old Shi, Lao Shi, you can't tell the children clearly, let alone me, wait for me, I will also feed the chickens."

Before Shi Jingqi and Liu Qinqin could react, they went to the chicken coop with Father Shi.

Shi Jingqi was laughed angrily, and said to Liu Qinqin, "These two people won't talk to us."

Liu Qinqin also laughed: "These two old men are very good at resisting persuasion. They don't bother to talk to us, so they just hide."

Shi Jingqi also stood up and said, "I'll go to the chicken coop to find them."

I have prepared a lot of words to persuade the two old men, but I haven't started using them yet.

But was stopped by Liu Qinqin: "I think even if you persuade until dark, it is impossible to persuade you."

Shi Jingqi turned her head: "Then don't care about it?"

"Come on." Liu Qinqin pulled Shi Jingqi to sit down again, and the two of them looked at Father Liu and Father Shi who were busy at the pigsty not far away through the door.

One of the two was mixing chicken feed, and the other was spreading hay in the chicken coop.

Occasionally say a few words, the cooperation is very tacit.

Liu Qinqin sighed, patted Shi Jingqi's arm, and said: "How do I feel, my dad and your dad work together better than my mom, you know when I'm at home, my dad and mom always Bickering, it was better before I had Xiaodunzi, but after I had Xiaodunzi, I quarreled every day."

Shi Jingqi also said: "You didn't see, Little Pomegranate's grandparents are similar."

"So, let's stop persuading them, and we can't persuade them to go back. Even if we persuade them to go back, they will not be happy. It would be troublesome to quarrel with their mothers every day. Let's discuss how to improve their living conditions." Liu Qinqin suggested.

Shi Jingqi nodded, and said: "Why don't you set up a phone call here first, it's convenient to contact if there is something."

"Well, add two more coal stoves, it's cold in winter." Liu Qinqin said.

"The toilet also needs to be repaired by someone. The shed leaks air, so they might as well make it into a brick wall." Shi Jingqi planned.

The two discussed it, and found that there were too many places that needed to be perfected and repaired, so they found a piece of paper and wrote it down.

Shi Jingqi put the paper away: "When we go back, I'll show it to my brother and the others, and ask what else is missing."

Seeing that the two of them didn't catch up to persuade him, Xu Shi and Liu's father felt that perhaps Shi Jingqi and the two had compromised.

Liu's father called Liu Qinqin happily: "Qinqin, come here quickly and see how good the duck eggs are, and our eggs are also good. You can take them back and feed them to Dunzi and Little Pomegranate. The eggs laid by our own chickens and ducks, baby I eat smart."

"Okay, here we come." Liu Qinqin happily agreed, and also went to the chicken coop.

The chicken pen is divided into three, with chickens in one pen, ducks in one pen, and geese in the last pen.

Neatly tidy and clean.

There are eggs in the chicken pens and duck pens, right on the hay.

Liu Qinqin was very interested in picking eggs and duck eggs, so she went into the pen to pick eggs.

Father Shi found a small bamboo basket, and Shi Jingqi carried the bamboo basket beside Liu Qinqin, acting as Liu Qinqin's little attendant.

Because some of the eggs were covered by hay, many of them were hidden from the person who was picking them up.

Father Liu and Father Shi were directing at the side, and all kinds of voices in the yard were huddled together, very lively.

When it was time to leave, Shi Jingqi and Liu Qinqin not only took away the eggs they picked up just now, but also brought a lot of eggs saved by Father Shi and Father Liu.

They also brought live chickens and ducks.

When they got back to Mincheng, Liu Qinqin got out of the car and sent the eggs back. Shi Jingqi called Liu Guodong, and the two of them killed chickens and ducks on the roof.

Neither the factory nor the family building could raise live poultry, and no one went to the Liu Family Home, so Shi Jingqi thought about killing all the chickens and ducks, putting them in the refrigerator to freeze, and thawing them when they were eaten.

Liu Guodong saw that Shi Jingqi and the two of them brought back so many things, he smiled and said: "I can tell from the posture of the two of you that you two have not been appointed to persuade. The sticks are pretty good, can I still give you something?"

Shi Jingqi thought about it, it was true, and said with a smile, "These are the tools our father used to beat us up."

Liu Guodong looked at Shi Jingqi with an expression that I believe you even if you are talking nonsense, but he was embarrassed to see Shi Jingqi, and said, "I think it's good to let the two dads stay in Shijiawan... "

As he said that, he told Liu Guodong the idea he had discussed with Liu Qinqin today, and then took out his and Liu Qinqin's plan to show Liu Guodong.

Shijiawan is not a den of tigers and wolves. On the contrary, Liu Guodong has been there several times and thinks the scenery there is very good.

Now that Shi Jingqi and Liu Qinqin had discussed it, he no longer objected.

The two discussed it again and divided the work.

Liu Guodong was born and raised in Mincheng, and now his friends and classmates have spread all over various departments in Mincheng, so Liu Guodong will handle the phone calls.

Shi Jingqi will handle the rest.

Both of them are neat people, and they still want to get things done before winter comes.

So they put their work aside for a while, so that they could free up their hands to deal with the affairs of the two old men.

Shi Jingqi's plan was simple. He bought everything he needed and drove back to Shijiawan in a car.

When we arrived at Shijiawan, we found a mason in Shijiawan, calculated the wages and materials for him, and asked him to repair and make up for the small courtyard of Shijiawan.

Because they are all from the same village, they are not afraid of masons charging prices arbitrarily, or cutting corners.

It was much more difficult for Liu Guodong. Now the phone was connected to the town. If Shijiawan wanted to make a phone call, he had to pull the phone line from the town to Shijiawan.

Not to mention how much material is needed, even if it is labor, it will consume too much.

And even if it's over, Shijiawan is where Shi Jingqi's family uses the phone, and the income is almost negligible.

No matter how you calculate it, it is a loss-making business.

After entrusting a lot of favors, Liu Guodong paid another 6000 yuan for the installation fee, and then agreed to call Shijiawan.

The 6000 yuan at that time was not a small amount, and Shi Jingqi insisted on paying the money because it was to install a telephone in his home.

Where would Liu Guodong let him dig it out, he insisted on digging it out himself.

In the end, it was Shi Chunhua who also heard that Shijiawan was going to install a telephone. She was very excited and said that it would be convenient to contact the old village chief in the future. Knowing that the telephone would cost 3000 yuan, she insisted on paying [-] yuan.

Liu Guodong accepted Shi Chunhua's 1000 yuan only after Xiaoli's persuasion.

After accepting Shi Chunhua, Liu Qinqin handed 2000 yuan to Lu Hongmei.

Once the installation fee is paid, the phone will be installed quickly.

It's just that I didn't expect that once the phone was connected, the first call was not from Father Liu, nor Father Shi, but from Chunhua Niang.

Chunhuaniang called the Zhengzhou office of Lengdie Refrigerator and asked Shi Chunhua to go back for a blind date, saying that she would be an old lady if she endured any longer.

Shi Chunhua was so angry that he insisted on paying another 1000 yuan to Liu Guodong to make Liu Guodong unplug the phone.

When Liu Qinqin and the others heard this, they laughed a lot, and praised Shijiawan's folk customs are still very open. The rumors that Shi Chunhua found a foreign son-in-law and was dumped by a foreign son-in-law have only passed a few years, and how dare they Come to the door to say hello to Shi Chunhua.

After Shi Jingqi and Liu Guodong finished their work in Shijiawan, they put all their energy on the factory.

Following the news that Yan Weidong was going to be the director, the news about Li Guangming's appointment as the deputy director finally came out.

Yan Weidong and Li Guangming have been partners for half their lives, and they are still partners when their jobs are transferred.

The position of factory director, as originally expected, will be created between Gao Tuanjie and Meng Pengcheng.

Yan and Li are going to report to the bureau before New Year's Day, and the work has to be handed over now, but the city has never been clear about the candidate for the factory director.

The two had no choice but to hand over the work to Gao Tuanjie. After all, in their hearts, Gao Tuanjie was more suitable for the position of factory manager, and they had just reassured them.

Gao Tuan was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, he quietly complained to Shi Jingqi in his free time: "If this job is owned by others, I will be embarrassed."

Shi Jingqi felt unsteady, and asked, "Do you have a bottom in your heart?"

Gao Tuanjie nodded, then shook his head again, he didn't know if he was right or not.

In the busy schedule, we ushered in the first snow of this year, and in the busy schedule, it was the end of December.

Yan Weidong and Li Guangming were going to the bureau to report, and they had to bring Xiaoqian, the driver.

Yan Weidong proposed to invite everyone to dinner in private in his own name.

Gao Tuanjie and Shi Jingqi said nothing to let Yan Weidong invite him.

Yan Weidong insisted on asking, saying that he would like to thank these young people for their support over the years.

Yan Weidong is now in Mincheng, and he is also a person. The private treats are not at restaurants outside, but at his own home.

His family lived in a three-bedroom apartment in the old family building. Speaking of which, among the young people, except for Xiaoqian, Gao Tuanjie, and Shi Lei, it seemed that no one else knew the place.

Shi Jingqi and Xiao Hei went to Yan Wei's house together, and the two joked with each other.

"No wonder the location hasn't been moved for several years. It turns out that I don't know where the door of the leader's house is open." Xiao Hei said.

"I know, it's not like I didn't move either. Look at Xiaoqian, Brother Lei, they're not all the same." Shi Jingqi said.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then exhaled lightly.

Both of them felt that they were lucky in their hearts to meet such a leader who valued him even though he didn't know where his house was open.

When the two arrived, Li Guangming, Gao Tuanjie, and Shi Lei were already there. As soon as they entered the room, Liu Guodong, Lu Fuxing, and Wen Xuefeng came over again. After waiting for a while, Liu Qinqin led Xiaoli and Zhenzhen in. .

Xiaoli hurried back from Zhengzhou today, Liu Qinqin didn't come with Shi Jingqi just now, she was just waiting for Xiaoli.

In the end, it was just a penny short.

Yan Weidong chuckled, let everyone sit down casually, and said that Xiaoqian went to pick up his daughter. Usually, the daughter is in the care of his wife, so he doesn’t care. It’s been cold these two days, the child’s grandma is sick, and the wife has gone to take care of the old man, so the child will be handed over. to him.

However, the child is in the third year of high school this year, and he is in school from morning to night. He goes to school by bicycle and comes back at night, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

Today is because the snow on the road has frozen, and it is always unsafe to ride a bicycle, so I let Xiaoqian pick it up.

When Liu Qinqin and the women heard that the hostess was not there, they hurriedly said, "Then let's cook."

Yan Weidong waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I've prepared everything. I ordered it at the Mincheng Restaurant. I've already paid for it. I'll just bring the money back later."

Gao Tuanjie laughed after hearing this: "Leader, you are not low-key."

Yan Weidong waved his hand: "What the hell, I use my own salary, so I can't eat anymore?"

Gao Tuan said again and again: "Yes, yes, whatever you do is right."

Everyone laughed, as if they had returned to the time when the factory had just transformed and Gao Tuanjie was still the director of the office, taking care of all kinds of things.

While talking, there was another knock on the door.

Xiaoqian came, carrying two large plastic bags in his hand, which contained various lunch boxes, and each dish was packed in plastic bags.

Followed by a little girl, big eyes, white skin, high ponytail, wearing a white and blue school uniform, carrying a backpack, holding a small ceramic pot in both hands.

It is the container used for cooking soup in Mincheng Restaurant.

Liu Qinqin hurriedly yelled "Be careful" and went to pick up the pot.

Shi Jingqi and the others went to pick up the things in Xiaoqian's hands.

Put them all in the kitchen, and Liu Qinqin and the others entered the kitchen to put the things on plates.

The little girl went into her room to put her schoolbag.

Yan Weidong guessed that the time was almost up, and shouted: "Zhengqing, come out and meet all uncles and aunts."

Yan Zhengqing agreed and came out of the room.

He has already taken off his school uniform and is wearing a homely floral jacket.

Say hello to the people in the room: "Hi, uncles."

Yan Weidong introduced them one by one, this is your Uncle Little Hei, and this is Uncle Liu Guodong.

He introduced one, and Yan Zhengqing just said hello, maybe the little girl was shy and didn't even raise her head the whole time.

Until Yan Weidong introduced: "This is Shi Jingqi, Uncle Shi."

Only then did Yan Zhengqing raise his head, his eyes lit up: "From Fudan University?"

Before Shi Jingqi could speak, Yan Weidong explained: "Zhengqing's grades are good. This year's college entrance examination, I want to get into Fudan University."
