Chapter 171 Driver
Shi Jingqi approached Mother Shi and discussed, "Then I'll discuss it with Brother Guodong tonight and see if I can go to Shijiawan tomorrow."

"That's good, we have to discuss it with Guodong." Shimu said.

The mother and son were talking, and Liu Qinqin came back.

In the past year, Liu Qinqin's work has become much easier.

Different from the previous years, the stores of Lengdie Refrigerator opened one after another, and the salespersons also recruited one after another.

Liu Qinqin needs to train new salespersons, manage old salespersons, inspect stores, do logistics... a lot of work every day.

But now the sales department of Lengdie Refrigerator is saturated. Many salespersons have resigned, but no new salespersons have been recruited.

The plate of Lengdie Group is also too big, and the sales department of Lengdie Refrigerator has also been neglected.

Liu Qinqin's sense of belonging to the factory was getting less and less, and she was even less willing to worry about work in this situation.

Go to work on time every day, and leave work on time.

It was just after six o'clock in the afternoon and came back.

Seeing Shi Jingqi at home, he asked, "What did you do at noon today? You didn't tell the family."

"I wanted to go to relax, but I ran into Zhengqing on the way. The little girl wanted to go to Hexi Village alone..." Shi Jingqi told Liu Qinqin what happened today.

He discussed with Shimu about whether they could get a place in the forest for the two old men to do farming.

After hearing this, Liu Qinqin asked, "Does the forest have to be rented?"

"It should be rented. After we have discussed it, we can ask the forestry farm. If we ask an acquaintance, it won't look good if we don't rent it." Shi Jingqi said.

Liu Qinqin agreed with Shi Jingqi's point of view: "That's right, favors are the most valuable now, let's discuss it before asking."

Then asked about Yan Zhengqing: "This girl is also very courageous. Fortunately, you followed today. If you didn't follow, you will be afraid after thinking about it."

"It's okay, Secretary Li is a good person, and he won't let a little girl have trouble in their village." Shi Jingqi replied: "However, it must be true to be shocked."

After dinner at Shi Jingqi's house, the couple led Little Pomegranate to Liu Guodong's house.

When they arrived, Liu's family had finished eating, and Dunzi had already gone to school. He had just finished his homework, and when he saw Little Pomegranate coming, he wanted to go out to play with Little Pomegranate.

Mother Liu took little pomegranate and Dunzi to Shi's house together, planning to call mother Shi to take the two children to the park in the back street to play, and leave the place for a few young people to discuss matters.

Shi Jingqi recounted what happened in Hexi Village today.

Liu Guodong and Lu Hongmei naturally agreed that it would definitely be better than now if they could satisfy the hobbies of the two old men and bring them closer to home.

And Liu Guodong also put forward another point of view.

The two old men are now engaged in breeding in Shijiawan, and they can't eat all the food they raise. They are all sold in the market. The two old men are not engaged in farming to make money. When they can't be sold, they sell at a lower price. .

Moving to the forest farm, it is closer to Mincheng, the market is bigger, and it is also conducive to the sale of the raised things. Maybe not only can you earn the rent, but you can also earn some pocket money.

Shi Jingqi also felt that Liu Guodong's idea was reliable. Although they didn't expect the money earned by the two old men to live, they could make the two old men happy if they could earn a little more.

Now that the discussion was made, Shi Jingqi discussed with Liu Guodong who would go to Shijiawan tomorrow.

Liu Guodong meant that he would go: "The news that our factory will also lay off a batch of workers only came out today. You didn't show up all day today, and you have to show up tomorrow no matter what."

Shi Jingqi didn't take it seriously: "I can't change the status quo even if I show up or not. Our father is still young, and my old man is stubborn, so I have to persuade him."

In fact, it's not because Father Shi is the more stubborn of the two old men, but because Shi Jingqi wants to escape from Lengdie Refrigerator Factory more.

Liu Guodong probably understood Shi Jingqi's mood, so he agreed and asked, "Then you still drive the van?"

Shi Jingqi is now the vice president, so he naturally has his own car, but Shi Jingqi is still used to driving a van when he goes out.

He felt that the van was pulling too many people.

After taking the motorcycle out of the shed again, he often rode the motorcycle when he went out alone.

When Liu Guodong asked him, he remembered what Yan Zhengqing said today about the private use of public vehicles.

Said: "I'll just drive a small car."

In Shi Jingqi's mind, driving back to Shijiawan in the car assigned to him was a little bit of his struggle against the status quo.

No one else noticed Shi Jingqi's careful thinking. He is the vice president of Lengdie Group, and it is normal for him to drive a car when he goes out.

On the second day, Shi Jingqi set off early in the morning.

The day before, he went to the laboratory for a tour before leaving the factory. Today, he simply rushed before everyone went to work, and he didn't even go to the laboratory.

Shi Jingqi drove the car out of the gate of Lengdie Refrigerator Factory, turned a corner, and saw a girl pulling a suitcase in front, it was Yan Zhengqing again.

Lengdie Refrigerator Factory is not far from the train station, and it takes about half an hour to walk there. Judging by Yan Zhengqing's appearance, he is going to walk to the train station to take the train.

Shi Jingqi stopped the car beside Yan Zhengqing, rolled down the window: "Cousin, do you want to take a car?"

Yan Zhengqing felt a car stopped beside him, so he didn't care, and walked forward with his head on his head. When he heard Shi Jingqi's voice, he raised his head in surprise.

"Brother Jingqi?"

"Go to train station?"

"Yes."

"The car at [-]:[-]?"

"Well, brother Jingqi is so clear?"

"I've been traveling to Shanghai for several years, but I usually take the afternoon bus, and it's easy to miss the morning bus from Shijiawan to Mincheng."

While talking, Shi Jingqi got out of the car and put Yan Zhengqing's suitcase in the trunk.

Said: "I'll take you to the station."

Maybe it's because I took Shi Jingqi's motorcycle yesterday, Yan Zhengqing didn't refuse, sat on the back seat and said, "Thank you, brother Jingqi, for letting you be the driver for two days."

"What kind of car you take depends on what kind of car the driver drives. Yesterday you took a motorcycle, but today you are a small car. Take a seat and let's go."

Yan Zhengqing also said happily: "Let's go."

When we arrived at the train station, it was not yet [-]:[-], Shi Jingqi entered the station with Yan Zhengqing again, waited in the waiting room for a while, watched Yan Zhengqing check the ticket and board the train, and then left.

The weather was just right, Shi Jingqi put down the car window and opened it against the wind.

At ten o'clock, we arrived at Shijiawan.

The situation in Shijiawan and Xihe Village is similar. The corn and peanuts that were planted early have already begun to be harvested, and the sweet potatoes or soybeans in some people's homes have also begun to be harvested.

In the past two years, the life of the villagers in Shijiawan has been getting better and better. There are several families with a lot of young laborers, because they put in a lot of effort in the fields and the harvest is good. They can do odd jobs during the slack season and bought agricultural tricycles .

Occasionally, when agricultural tricycles pass by on the road, they will look into Shi Jingqi's car window, and when they see that it is Shi Jingqi, they will wave and say hello to Shi Jingqi.

Shi Jingqi also went back, feeling much better.

When he got to the door of the house, he saw Father Shi driving a dozen sheep coming from the back of the village, so he parked the car under the mulberry tree at the door and came to help drive the sheep.

Who knew that Father Shi disliked that he wore a shirt and leather shoes, dressed as a city man, but still had to do rural work like herding sheep, and was a little annoyed, saying, "Go and open the door for me, so you don't need to herd the sheep."

The door was originally ajar, Shi Jingqi hurried to open the door, the sheep, led by the head sheep, filed in, and all entered the sheepfold obediently.

Father Liu was chopping chicken food next to the chicken ring, when he heard the noise, he stopped his movements.

Seeing Shi Jingqi and Father Shi came in together, he asked Shi Jingqi, "Why is Jingqi here? What's the matter at home?"

"There's nothing wrong at home, except that the two children miss their grandpa and grandpa."

As Shi Jingqi said, he was going to take over the work from Father Liu.

Liu's father was not willing, and pushed Shi Jingqi aside with his elbow: "You don't need it, I'm almost done chopping it up, this grass has grass juice on it, you are wearing a white shirt, and it won't wash off if you splash it with grass juice Yes, a piece of clothing wasted."

Hearing what he said, Shi Jingqi didn't move anymore, turned around and went into the room, found a short sleeve of Father Shi from the room, and put it on.

He also took off his leather shoes and replaced them with cloth shoes, then went to pick up the knife in Father Liu's hand, and said, "This time it's okay."

The daughter and son-in-law are now the vice president of Lengdie Group, and they can rush to help him with the dirty and tiring work. Father Liu must be happy in his heart. He handed the knife to Shi Jingqi and asked Shi Jingqi to chop grass. He took out the chicken food bowl and went inside to hold the feed.

Feed the chickens with grass and feed.

Father Shi locked the sheep into the sheepfold, washed his hands, and then went to the chicken pen.

Seeing that Shi Jingqi had chopped the grass, he asked Liu's father to pass the chicken food bowl to Shi Jingqi, and asked Shi Jingqi to mix the chicken food.

He and Liu's father moved a small bench by themselves, and sat under a tree not far from Shi Jingqi, watching Shi Jingqi work.

"If you come by yourself today, you must have something to discuss with us, and if you have anything to say, just talk about it." Shifu said.

Shi Jingqi asked the two of them: "I followed the orders of the two old ladies, Qinqin and sister-in-law, and came here to persuade you two to sell all these things and go back to Mincheng with me to enjoy the blessings. Do you want to?"

Father Shi pulled his face when he heard this, and said, "Anyway, I'm not going back to Mincheng, so let your dad go back with you."

Father Liu waved his hands again and again, and complained to Father Shi: "Old Shi, we have worked together for so many years, why don't you show loyalty, let the child go back, if you don't want to go back, you don't want to go back, why are you betraying me?" And me."

Father Shi smiled at Father Liu: "It's not because you are his father-in-law, no matter how tough this kid is, he won't dare to be tough with you."

Shi Jingqi listened to the conversation between the two, put the chicken food bowl in the chicken coop, washed her hands, moved a bench and sat beside the two old men, and said, "I know you don't want to go back to Mincheng, and you didn't come here today." What forced you is that our children have an idea and want to ask the opinions of the two of you."

Seeing his son's earnestness, Father Shi said, "It's like trying a case, return the parties, tell me, what's the matter?"

"We're discussing and want to give you another place to start farming. Although Shijiawan is good, it's too far away from Mincheng. It's inconvenient for my mother and the others to come," Shi Jingqi said.

"Then where do we go?" Father Liu asked first, fearing that Father Shi would choke Shi Jingqi with his words.
"Move to the forest farm, that place is close to Mincheng, and has a lot of grass, which is very suitable for breeding." Shi Jingqi said.

"If you go there? Can the government allow you to breed there? Do you still have to pay rent? Do you have to build a house? It's all a matter, I think it's better to forget it." Shifu said.

Father Liu also said: "Indeed, it would take a lot of time and money to move, so let's forget it."

Shi Jingqi discussed with several people yesterday that it was close to Mincheng, and things could be sold, so she told the two old men.

He added: "Also, look, every time Xiaodunzi and Xiao Shiliu come to Shijiawan, they love to play with these cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks. Our children like it, and other people's children like it too. Maybe they will come back to play with these cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks every time. Can think of some other income."

When the grandson and granddaughter were mentioned, the two old men were moved and moved to the forest farm. Among other things, at least it was convenient to see the grandson.

It is also a good thing to be able to keep my hobbies and be close to my family.

The two old men were a little moved.

Father Shi asked, "At that time, what will we do with our cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks? We can't sell them all and raise them again? These chickens are laying eggs. My little pomegranate and Dunzi want to eat them."

Shi Jingqi had thought about this a long time ago: "Sell what you want to sell, and if you don't want to sell, the big truck from the factory will come and pull it all for you in one go."

Father Shi said: "I have to discuss it with your father.

Shi Jingqi got up and said, "Then I'll go out for a walk."

He went out and went to the old village chief's house.

The old village chief was sitting in his yard smoking a cigarette.

Now that he is old and his legs and feet are not flexible, he is not willing to wander around the village anymore.

Seeing Shi Jingqi coming, he asked, "Child Qi, why are you here?"

Speaking of standing up, Shi Jingqi hurriedly walked a few steps and let the old village chief sit on the chair.

"I'm fine. Come and see my dad. How is your health recently?"

"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry." The old village chief said.

Shi Jingqi went into the house and moved a bench by herself, and sat beside the old village chief: "Master, you can do whatever you like, your body is yours, but you must take good care of it, what about my uncles, my aunts?"

"There are corn and ripe crops in the Nandi field. The two of them will go to the field to have a look, and they should be back in a while." The old village chief said.

As soon as the words fell, Chunhua's father and Chunhua's mother pulled the corn cobs of the family's cart and entered the house.

Shi Jingqi was busy helping to unload the corn.

Chunhua Niang went to bring water for Shi Jingqi to drink, and asked: "Child Qi, you don't come back often, I can't find you to ask, tell me the truth, is Chunhua and that long-haired man on good terms?" ?”

Shi Chunhua and Qi Kun have been getting better for more than a year, and they haven't told Chunhua's father and Chunhua's mother yet.

Shi Jingqi said yes and no, said no and no, so she could only say: "I haven't seen spring flowers for a long time, so I don't know too well."
