Chapter 1167 A New Fulcrum
When the sun was not too bright, Lu Miao cut a lot of small pieces of cactus with cochineal insects in them, and gradually attracted the cochineal insects to the cacti in the garden.

In the next few days, she couldn't rest and stayed in the handicraft room for an hour today and two hours tomorrow, tinkering with it intermittently.

She wasn't busy with anything, she was just using the free time to try out more lipstick shades.

People in foreign countries pay attention to "sexiness", such as flaming red lips, very light flesh pink, very dark brick red, dove blood red, brown red, etc., which are all relatively good-selling colors.

With reference to these characteristics, Lu Miao used the acid-base properties to adjust the color bit by bit, and actually produced two different types of deep red.

She even tried it on her mouth, and was seen by Tang Mei when she went out of the workshop to look in the mirror, which scared her.

Tang Mei thought she had gone somewhere to eat a live chicken.

Before the noise here died down, Fu Jingyou came back from outside carrying a postal package.

Fu Jingyou was shocked when he saw her mouth was black and red as soon as he entered the room.

I thought she had eaten something unclean and was poisoned, so I put the package down and took her to the hospital.

The two of them were so startled that Lu Miao was completely speechless.

Lu Miao wiped off her lipstick and explained for a long time before the family quieted down.

After this incident, Lu Miao no longer had the heart to continue messing around.

I simply packed up my things and washed my hands, locked the door of the craft room, and went to the living room to see what had been sent from my hometown this time.

The package was sent by Tianzao.

In addition to the spring multi-flower honey brewed by Tianzao, there was also half a pot of rapeseed oil brought by the He family.

The white rubber kettle lid couldn't be screwed on tightly, so He Hongjin wrapped the mouth of the kettle with several layers of plastic bags and tied it with a hemp rope.

But even so, a lot of oil still seeped out.

When Tang Mei saw this, she sighed and felt so distressed:
"You two should write a letter tomorrow and ask them not to send these things anymore. We have enough food and drinks at home! They have been busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and only got these things. It would be fine if they sent them to you to eat, but look at how they have wasted them!"

Fu Jingyou knew how difficult farming was, so he felt bad looking at the wet and greasy package.

You can buy everything in the city, there is nothing missing.

He had already told the old couple these words.

But in the final analysis, no matter how much you say, it is not as good as the old couple listening to every word they say.

Every time, it's always the same. When it comes to rushing things, it seems like if I don't bring something along, I'll lose something...

Along with the package came some letters.

Fu Jingyou gave the letter to Lu Miao.

While Lu Miao was reading the letter, he frowned and silently helped Tang Mei pack her things.

When the previous batch of books was transported to his hometown, Lu Miao contacted Hu Zhiyuan directly.

At that time, Lu Miao told Hu Zhiyuan on the phone that he wanted to allocate a portion of the children's reading books to be sent to Tianzao.

In this letter, Tianzao mainly talked about this matter.

She has already received the books and exercise books that Lu Miao prepared for the children.

In addition to expressing gratitude, Tianzao also mentioned another thing in the letter.

The story begins when Bai Chengwen returned from Beijing North.

After Bai Chengwen returned, the news that Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao were making a name for themselves outside had basically spread.

People in the village were talking about it, and in the end, no one knew who spread the news, saying that there were more opportunities in big cities and that as long as you dared to go out and explore, you could make a fortune.

So, at the beginning of this spring, many young and middle-aged men in Dahe Village and the team packed their bags and set out to make a living.

Some girls were also very interested, but due to timidity, concerns, or family obstruction, they could only watch their fellow countrymen rush to big cities.

Among those who were not supported to travel far away was Bai Chengwu from the Bai family.

Big brother Bai Chengwen described his trip to northern Beijing in vivid detail, and Bai Chengwu was extremely envious.

Seeing many people in the village running outside, Bai Chengwu said he wanted to go too.

He was a frivolous person, acting like a fool all day long. How could Bai's parents dare to let him go? They refused outright.

Now Bai Chengwu makes trouble at home every day. Bai's father and mother are fed up with him, and finally say that since he is not married yet, he has to listen to his parents at home.

When he gets married and sets up his own family, he can go wherever he wants and his family will no longer care about him.

The young man who didn't have much life experience was also easy to coax. He actually calmed down after hearing these words...

Tianzao wrote these to Lu Miao half as a complaint and half as a daily anecdote, successfully making Lu Miao smile slightly.

After reading the letter, Lu Miao took the letter and did not forget to mention to Fu Jingyou the matter of the villagers going out to make a living.

Fu Jingyou thought for a while after hearing this, and then said slowly:

"Just listen to this story. If you haven't met the person in person, just pretend you don't know."

Lu Miao smiled and nodded gently:
"I think so too."

Although it is natural for fellow villagers to help each other when they are away from home.

But the world is so big, and so many people have left their hometown, and they don’t even know where they are going.

Besides, no one has come to them for this kind of thing, so why should they take the initiative to do so?

The couple chatted briefly about the matter and then moved on.

Besides, the holiday was coming to an end, and Lu Miao’s first day back to work was a meeting.

A while ago, the country implemented the "Trial Regulations on Identity Cards". Starting from April this year, ten cities including Beijing, Shanghai, and Tianjin will begin pilot implementation.

Any Chinese citizen who is 16 years of age or older can apply for a resident ID card.

The Guoyingshe unit has a special nature and is called upon to actively cooperate and respond to the new policies.

In addition, Lu Miao is now mainly responsible for international publicity work, so in addition to being emphasized that she should be the first batch to apply for ID cards during the meeting, Minister Zhan also specifically mentioned her name and asked her to handle her passport information along the way.

Lu Miao nodded in agreement.

Having said that, Lu Miao actually already understood it clearly.

Speaking of passports, it is likely that you will not be far away from working abroad.

Although I didn't consider developing down this path at the beginning, now that I have come this far, there is nothing to hesitate and stop moving forward.

Her father is slowly getting older.

Retreating to the background is a matter of the next few years.

And these few years are just the time for her to become a new fulcrum, until she reaches a high enough level to be able to protect the family from wind and rain, the best tolerance...

Although the ID card regulations are currently being promoted on a "trial" basis, Lu Miao knows that in the future, the ID card will gradually replace the household registration page and become an indispensable part of life.

Household registration books in the north are loose-leaf, and the elders don’t travel far often, so there’s no need to rush to apply for ID cards for the time being.

But the child’s father is different.

Considering that the ID card is more convenient, when Lu Miao took the time to go to various departments to submit the documents, he did not forget to ask Fu Jingyou to go with him.

Afterwards, Lu Miao also reminded Chen Xiangdong and his group to find time to do it.
