I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 453 Should we adopt a child?

The atmosphere of the entire steel rolling mill seems harmonious, but in fact it is more like the calm before the storm. Maybe both sides felt that the time was not yet ripe, and a compromise balance was temporarily reached. They are all waiting for opportunities and accumulating strength.

Factory Director Yang has always been close to Zhou Ning’s father, Director Zhou. They are of the same lineage, focusing on technology and production. The most important thing to promote is to try their best to concentrate their efforts, try their best to improve the backward productivity, and catch up with the United States as soon as possible.

Factory Director Li is not a technical person, nor does he have a mass base among workers. He mainly relied on his father-in-law’s guidance and support, plus his own achievements in actual logistics and government affairs work. The middle-level leaders in the factory took up positions as factory leaders.

In comparison, Director Li's foundation is much shallower and his background is not that solid. At the same time, the most important thing is that the resources available to him are very scarce. This is also the main reason why he took the initiative to lower his profile and cooperate with Factory Director Yang during this period.

Anyway, he knew in his heart that the current stage was different from the previous two years. Now it was technology and production that played the leading roles. If Director Yang was to be the leading actor in front of the stage, he had to willingly retreat to the second line and try his best to get through this period. .

Just as Xu Damao was busy investigating Qin Huairu, Director Li stopped his activities. The inspection team also withdrew. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Moreover, Factory Director Li specifically sought out Xu Damao and had another talk. The implication behind the words is to tell him that the current situation has changed, and the work progress must be temporarily slowed down, and the main energy should be devoted to supporting the production and technical space of the factory, and other discordant voices must be abandoned for the time being. We all work together to achieve the goals assigned by our superiors.

So Xu Damao became busy again, and he had no energy to worry about any more messy things. Every day is full of busy work, and all I do is my job.

In order to build up his energy, his duties as a projectionist doubled his workload. It used to be that he had more large venues, but now he often does it in smaller venues, one workshop after another.

Qin Jingru was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Damao, and asked him worriedly: "You weren't involved in this, were you?"

For several days. When Xu Damao returned home, he saw Qin Jingru busying around and had no time to spare. He couldn't bear it anymore, so he said to Qin Jingru, "Jingru, you don't have to prepare so much in the future. If you have a stutter and can drink water, come back and wash your face." That’s fine, you don’t have to scald your feet every day. You even cook two dishes every now and then. I think you didn’t even eat much, so you just gave them to me.”

Xu Damao couldn't hide the smile on his face, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He originally didn't care that such a good wife could not live a complete life, but when he really tasted happiness, he felt a little regretful.

So he thought for a while and said to Qin Jingru: "Jingru, someday you find an opportunity to remind Sister Huairu that Director Li is always staring at her in the factory, trying to find her fault. Ask her to be careful when working. , pay more attention.”

Xu Damao laughed: "You, you, don't take her things from now on. Tell me what you want and I'll find a way to find it. I can get local eggs sometimes when I go to the countryside."

Qin Jingru said with a smile: "Look at what you said, you are working outside to support your family, and you are so tired every day. It is my job to cook and hot water for you at home. Besides, I secretly stole these good things for cooking." I ran to Sister Huairu and touched it. If I don’t eat it quickly and let her find it and go back, won’t I suffer a loss?”

Suddenly you feel that the fatigue of the day has disappeared, and the warm energy in your heart makes your whole body energized again.

Anyway, now he always feels sorry for Qin Jingru. He had forgotten all the little calculations he had made before getting married.

At this time, he fully experienced the benefits of having a hard-working wife. He came home as tired as a pile of mud every day. Before he got married to Qin Jingru, facing a cold room and a cold stove, he might just eat something and lie down on the bed and fall asleep.

But now, no matter how tired she is, Qin Jingru returns home with a smile on her face. First, hot water and hot towels were handed over, then the soaked rice noodles were served, and finally there was still hot rice in the pot.

Qin Jingru said with a smile: "Don't worry, I said that just to make you happy. Sister Huairu saw me taking things, but she didn't care. Why do you think so much? I, the younger sister, want to eat something from her." It’s not normal. When you find something good in the future, why don’t we just give her some more?”

Just in the past few days, he has made up his mind. Whoever wants to do Director Li's business will do it. He, Xu Damao, will not do it anymore. He will live his life at home from now on. Peaceful, eating and drinking, and being happy with my wife.

Xu Damao smiled sheepishly, "I don't want to hide it from you. It turns out that Factory Director Li really left this matter to me, but I don't want to do it now, so I just told you to remind Huai Sister Ru.”

Qin Jingru thought for a while and said to Xu Damao with a smile: "You are right to think so. Those who are factory directors and leaders all have their own ideas. We ordinary workers and ordinary people just live their lives well and have food and drink. , Just be happy and don’t think about things that are useful or useless. I don’t think you have the temper to do big things, so just accept your fate.”

Xu Damao didn't express any dissent this time, but scratched his head and said with a smile: "What's wrong? You have recognized me in just a few days, so you must be sure that I can't do anything big?" Qin Jingru put it down. With the job in hand, he sat down in front of Xu Damao, looked him in the eyes seriously, and said to him: "Da Mao, actually I don't have any ambitions. I always had the idea of ​​going to the city, but now I have really entered the city. , I feel that I am already very satisfied, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore, just live a good life. We don’t have to hide our words. Just like your current situation, what’s the point of bothering about those things. What's the point? Isn't it possible to have a good night's sleep just by eating that one thing? You have nothing to eat and you can sleep soundly, so what else are you doing? Relatives, they are our own people, so we have to be clear about who we should stand with. If there is any problem in our family in the future, who will help us? It must be Sister Huairu and the others. You can count on Director Li. Take care of you."

Xu Damao frowned and thought for a moment, then took out a cigarette from his pocket. Over there, Qin Jingru had already taken out a match from the bucket on the table and lit the fire for him.

Just such a small movement made Xu Damao stunned for a moment, and he suddenly let go of the hesitation he had felt just now. He lit the cigarette by the fire and took a deep breath, "Jingru, I heard what you said. Don't worry, I can carry it clearly."

Then Xu Damao's face showed some hesitation, but in the end he gritted his teeth and said to Qin Jingru, as if he had made up his mind: "Do you think we can adopt a child?"

Qin Jingru waved her hand: "After all, we are not biological, so I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Besides, don't you have Gao Xiaomiao? We can just be nicer to her in the future."

When Xu Damao heard this, he looked very embarrassed and a little embarrassed.

Qin Jingru found that his expression was strange and asked him: "What's wrong? What's your expression? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Xu Damao said, "Have you not noticed, that Gao Xiaomiao looks more and more like Song Wu?"

Qin Jingru was stunned for a moment, then frowned and thought about it, suddenly she understood. She looked at Xu Damao: "It's no wonder, they are so harmonious over there. They are like a family every day."

Xu Damao no longer cared about this matter. He said to Qin Jingru: "That's why I said we should adopt a child."

Qin Jingru smiled: "It doesn't take that much effort, at least Gao Xiaomiao is still your daughter in name to the outside world, and the father written in the household registration book is still your name. If you treat her better, you will have nothing, and you can adopt another one." , everyone knows that he is not your biological child. But what will happen to him when he grows up?"

When Xu Damao thought about it, this was really the truth. He nodded, but soon frowned and said to Qin Jingru: "But, I feel so wronged to you."

Qin Jingru waved her hands with a smile, "What are the grievances for? I was still doing farm work every day in the countryside, and couldn't eat or sleep well. Now I'm in the city, living in this spacious house, eating commercial grain, and being protected from the wind and rain every day. , Let’s talk about grievances, that’s unjustifiable.”

She said it easily, but Xu Damao seemed to have an unresolved knot and was still making calculations in his mind.

Qin Jingru said to him again: "Don't think about things that are useful or useless. Call Gao Xiaomiao over more often. I will make her some delicious food and two sets of clothes, so that the relationship will be like a father and daughter. ”

Xu Damao scratched his head and said: "I don't think this will work, because Gao Xiaomiao'er has long regarded Song Wu as her father, and she might not know that I exist at all. Often when we are walking across the street, she will look at me and follow her Judging from the behavior of everyone else in the hospital, there was no emotional change at all. It is estimated that Gao E has never mentioned me to her. "

Qin Jingru thought for a while, "That's really the case. It seems that I took it for granted. Oh, forget it, if you don't have children, you won't have children. Let's just get on with our lives. There's no pressure and no need to worry."

……

Qin Huairu was looking worriedly at Huizhen, who was taking her pulse.

The main reason is that the pulse taking time this time was too long, almost 20 minutes passed, and I finished taking the left hand and the right hand. Huizhen kept squinting her eyes and didn't say a word. Qin Huairu, who was originally in a relaxed mood, was now nervous and her heart was beating wildly.

She finally couldn't help it anymore and asked in a low voice: "Huizhen, is there something wrong? Don't worry, I can bear it."
