The next day.
The north wind that had been blowing for several days finally stopped.
That evening, Li Jie and Qin Nan walked out of the house together, and Li Jie was holding a big 'cotton ball' in his arms.
The weather outside was very cold. Although Doudou was in good physical condition, she was still wrapped up in three layers.
Fortunately, the two houses are not far apart. If you walk quickly, you can get there in three to five minutes.
The moment I stepped into Lao Xu's house, it was like going from winter to early spring, with the temperature suddenly rising by more than 20 to 30 degrees.
From 20 degrees below zero to more than 10 degrees, forget about that feeling.
As soon as Li Jie entered the door, he immediately took off his daughter's clothes.
"Lao Gao, your movements are quite skillful."
Seeing this scene, Lao Xu quietly slipped to Li Jie's side and carefully observed the baby-raising movements.
He has never taken care of a child, and if he takes care of a newborn, he will be blind. Therefore, if he gets the opportunity to learn, Lao Xu is certainly not willing to miss it.
"In the future, you will too."
Li Jie smiled without looking back. There is a step-by-step process in raising children.
To this day, he can still recall the first time he took care of a child.
At that time, the child had just been born and all the bones in his body were soft. Faced with this situation, he did not dare to hold the child at all.
In the end, I hired a confinement nanny to take care of her.
However, later he had more children, and he gradually learned how to hold them.
In fact, as long as there are no very large movements, newborns are unlikely to get into trouble.
"hey-hey."
On the side, Lao Xu couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this. At this moment, he was already imagining the picture of taking care of the child in his mind.
He has now begun to practice changing the child's diaper, bathing the child, wiping the child's butt, etc.
Although it is not a physical simulation.
Xu Lingjun stretched his head and looked aside for a while, then left silently.
It's time for the food in the pot to be heated.
After Li Xiuzhi became pregnant, as long as Xu Lingjun was at home, Xu Lingjun basically took care of the housework, such as washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, etc., all of them were his.
Because of this incident, Li Xiuzhi suddenly became the envy of other women.
This treatment is great.
Locally, women have to go to work even if they are pregnant. This is not because men do not care about their wives.
It’s because if you don’t work, you won’t be able to feed your family.
Some pregnant women, seven or eight months pregnant, are still doing some relatively easy farm work.
Everyone else was envious, let alone the person involved, Li Xiuzhi.
She didn't know how lucky she was now. Fortunately, she met Xu Lingjun. If she hadn't come here in the first place, she might have lost this marriage.
Therefore, during the recent period, Li Xiuzhi slept with a smile every day.
"dinner time."
After a while, Lao Xu walked into the house carrying two pots of hot hard vegetables, one with hand-caught mutton and the other with air-dried spicy rabbit meat.
They are all meat and hard dishes.
The portion is also very large, and the four of them can still be full even if they don't eat staple food and only eat meat.
Qin Nan walked to the table, smelled the aroma of the food, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Old Xu, your skills are pretty good."
Xu Lingjun chuckled and glanced at Li Jie.
"Master taught me well."
In the past, Xu Lingjun was a single man, and he never paid attention to what he ate. He only had to cook everything.
But after getting to know Li Xiuzhi, he began to pay attention to these things.
Especially after Li Xiuzhi found out she was pregnant, Xu Lingjun went to Li Jie to further his cooking skills.
Not to mention, he studied very hard.
In just a few months, the dishes were ready to be cooked.
Good food goes with good wine. Qin Nan and Li Xiuzhi, one is breastfeeding and the other is pregnant, of course they cannot drink.
As a result, all the liquor on the table went into the stomachs of Li Jie and Xu Lingjun.
Halfway through the drink, the girl from Li Jie's family woke up and cried as soon as she woke up. Upon hearing the cry, Qin Nan immediately knew that her daughter was hungry.
Then, she and Li Xiuzhi went to the inner room together.
Seeing them leaving, Li Jie suddenly changed the topic and asked.
"Lao Xu, have you ever thought about the future?"
"after?"
When Xu Lingjun suddenly heard this question, he was stunned for a moment, and then a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It's too far, I haven't thought about it."
"I just want to live a good life with Xiuzhi. In the past few years, I have saved more money and tickets. When the child is older, I can take Xiuzhi back to my parents' home."
Li Jie shook his head and said, "I mean, what about further?"
"farther?"
Xu Lingjun was silent for a moment and slowly shook his head.
"I didn't think about it."
Li Jie took a sip of wine and suggested: "Have you ever thought about going outside in the future? Xifeng Village is too small."
"Old Xu, you are also a college student after all."
"Staying here is such a waste."
Lao Xu smiled lightly and said in a self-deprecating tone.
"What's wrong, college students? There's nothing that can't be wasted."
"Besides, even if I go out, what can I do?"
"What I studied was mechanical engineering. Except for those large factories, it is not used anywhere else. And with my identity, who would want me?"
"Old Xu, you are too pessimistic."
While talking, Li Jie gave him a glass of wine.
"I mean, if, if the policy changes in the future, if you have the opportunity to pick up your major again, can you still pick it up?"
"For example, let me use an analogy. For example, the current industry in our village, I think, is just selling wool and mutton, and the added output value is too low."
"If the policy can change in the future, I think we should carry out deep processing, and we will definitely buy machines by then."
"When the time comes, will you help?"
"If you do it, I will definitely help."
Xu Lingjun smiled and agreed immediately.
Although he agreed readily, he didn't really believe in the matter of opening the factory.
A collective or an individual wants to open a factory?
is it possible?
The machines are so expensive that even if Xifeng Village is sold, they still can't afford the production line.
"good."
"Then it's a deal!"
With that said, Li Jie raised his wine glass.
"Um!"
Seeing this, Xu Lingjun also raised his glass, and then the two drank the wine in one gulp.
Immediately afterwards, Li Jie grabbed Lao Xu and talked about his plans for the next ten years. During this period, he talked most of the time while Lao Xu listened, and then echoed a few times from time to time.
Of course Li Jie could see Lao Xu's perfunctory attitude.
Unfortunately, Lao Xu didn't know that these would become a reality in the future.
There is a huge shortage of talents here in Xifeng Village. After searching the surrounding villages, there is only a college student like Lao Xu.
No.
Even counting the upper floors, there are only a handful of college students.
There is only one college student majoring in mechanical engineering like Xu Lingjun living within a hundred miles.
