A domineering country girl flirts with her son, and Commander Huo can't resist.

"Dad, we're both here, and it was said by the top leader of the machine tool factory himself. Many villagers heard it."

Huo Jifeng drank two bowls of vegetable porridge, but he was still not full. He rubbed his empty stomach and said sullenly.

"Qiao An's family is eating and drinking well every day, and they even have a car to drive. Look at our family, we only have vegetable porridge every day, and my poop is green now." Huo Jiyu felt even more unbalanced.

When Qiao An was at home, they could eat meat twice a month, but now they can't even see a speck of meat.

"We've split up the family. And after that big fuss in the brigade last time, we can't count on the second son anymore." Huo Shoutian said with a worried look as he smoked his pipe.

"By the way, Dad, I remember Qiao An's parents were pretty snobbish, right? Seeing how well Qiao An is doing now, they don't even ask for money?" Huo Jiyu asked while eating a piece of vegetable dumpling.

His words reminded Huo Shoutian and Liu Huying.

"Yes, her dad. Qiao An's parents live in Xinzhuang next door, but they haven't come to see her once in all this time. I remember that Qiao Shuiniu."

"Back then, when they married Qiao An off to the second son, they insisted on a dowry of one hundred yuan and didn't give her a single penny of dowry. They were incredibly stingy."

Huo Jiyu put down her chopsticks. "Hmph, if our family is having a hard time, we can't let her have it easy either. Mom, find a way to tell Qiao An's parents about this when you have time. Knowing their character, they'll definitely cause trouble."

"She can't handle it, so let's pretend to mediate and take the opportunity to get her to pay us. I see her business is so good, she must be making at least a hundred or two a month."

The Huo family only cares about money. When they heard that they could earn one or two hundred yuan a month, they couldn't even eat.

So uncomfortable!

How come that timid girl who was bullied every day can now earn so much money?

The Huo family's wishful thinking was quite elaborate.

Joanne has already started thinking about moving.

According to Huo Jiyun, she will be able to join the army in the second half of the year.

However, the specific time has not been determined yet. Huo Jiyun could not give her a definite answer as to whether she could leave in July or December.

Huo Fang will graduate from elementary school in June, and naturally she will go to junior high school in town.

It's best to rent a place in town.

Qiao An tentatively asked Yu Linzhou, "Secretary Yu, is our machine tool factory's residential compound fully occupied?"

Yu Linzhou quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, "No, no."

"Do you have something on your mind? In any case, we will do everything we can to meet your needs."

Seeing his attitude, Joan felt that there was hope for her to move into the machine tool factory.

"Here's the thing, I'm thinking of renting a place near the machine tool factory. Fangfang is about to take her junior high school entrance exam and will be studying in town. My business is also in town, so..."

"no problem!"

Yu Linzhou slammed his hand on the table in excitement, startling the four children.

He touched his nose and chuckled sheepishly, "Well, don't wait until June. I'll find you a place tomorrow, and I'll have all the furniture ready so you can move in within three days."

Qiao An was stunned for a moment. "Secretary Yu, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Fangfang hasn't graduated from elementary school yet. If I move there now, I'll still have to take her back to the village to go to school every day."

Yu Linzhou waved his hand and said, "No need. I'll have the machine tool factory primary school reserve a place for Huo Fang. You can complete the transfer procedures in the village and go to the factory primary school tomorrow."

"The teachers at our machine tool factory primary school are all from the county. They teach much better than the teachers in the village. There are still two months until the exam, so they can help Huo Fang prepare for the exam."

After speaking, Yu Linzhou lowered his voice, as if he wanted to tell some secret.

"I heard from a former leader in the provincial capital that the college entrance examination will be reinstated this winter. Maybe these kids will be able to go to university in the future!"

Qiao An already knew about the resumption of the college entrance examination.

She didn't make the decision on her own, but turned to look at Huo Fang, "Fangfang, you heard what your uncle said too."

"Transferring schools now and leaving behind your familiar classmates might be a little difficult, but like your uncle said, the primary school at the machine tool factory is definitely better than the one in the village. Your aunt wants to hear what you think."

Huo Fang was actually tempted when she heard Yu Linzhou's words.

She wanted to go to town to see what the teachers there would teach.

The teachers at Lianchi Village Primary School can no longer teach Huo Fang.

Especially after reading some of the tutoring books that Qiao An gave her, she felt that the teachers' level was just so-so. To put it bluntly, she could teach elementary school now.

"Second Aunt, I want to go to town," Huo Fang made up her mind.

"Okay, then we'll move in a couple of days."

Joanne's answer was even more straightforward.

Yu Linchang breathed a sigh of relief.

As the saying goes, there's always a hint of affection between people when they meet.

Qiao An spends every day at the machine tool factory, and out of respect for them, she probably won't register her special worker certificate with another factory.

Yu Linzhou and his team acted quickly, clearing out a house with a small courtyard in the family compound the day after they left Qiao An's house.

These are places only for elderly, level-eight workers.

As soon as they heard that Qiao An was going to move in, no one dared to gossip.

Are you kidding me? Those are special workers, what kind of small courtyard can't they live in?

Within two days, the furniture arrived and the kitchen was all cleaned up.

You can practically move in with just your bags.

Qiao An didn't hesitate and asked Tian Yongfu to handle Huo Fang's transfer procedures.

They packed up their belongings overnight, since there wasn't much in the house to begin with.

After sorting through all the boxes, there were only three cabinets and boxes.

Yu Linzhou sent a truck from his factory to the village to pick up Qiao An.

Because there were only three wooden crates, no one assumed Joanne was moving.

On the last day, Joan first took the children to their new home, and then drove back to Lianchi Village.

She had to take the furniture that Huo Jiyun had spent over a month making for her.

Joanne couldn't bear to let the furniture gather dust here.

She moved all the furniture into the living area of ​​the space.

There was nothing in that room except for the bed.

Qiao An tidied up the living area in the space before driving away from Lianchi Village.

Only Tian Yongfu's family knew about the move, and Qiao An specifically told them not to tell anyone.

To prevent some people from being jealous and causing her trouble again.

And so, Qiao An left Lianchi Village quietly.

Nobody knows.

Of course, Huo Jiyun, who was thousands of miles away, found out immediately.

Joanne sent him a telegram, reminding him to change his address when writing letters.

Once Qiao An officially moved into the machine tool factory, Yu Linzhou handed her the special worker certificate sent by Ping Jing and the letter from Wang Kai.

Qiao An did not hide anything from Yu Linzhou and read the letter in front of him and Zhao Zhengang.

Yu Linzhou and Zhao Zhengang were extremely nervous.

After she finished reading, she cautiously asked, "Qiao An, what do you think of Pingjing?"

Qiao An closed the letter and immediately understood the meaning behind Yu Linzhou's words.

In his letter, Wang Kai said that she could take her child to Beijing, and the Institute of Technology would arrange her household registration.

As for her job at the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), she earns a monthly salary of 150 yuan.

ITRI ​​will provide employee dormitories, and employees can upgrade to larger houses after years of service.

It would be strange if an ordinary person didn't agree to these conditions.

But Qiao An is not an ordinary person. In the past, she would have considered going to Pingjing.

Now that her relationship with Huo Jiyun is confirmed, Qiao An will absolutely not go.

Even the deepest feelings will fade if you live apart for a long time.
