Chapter 136 Do you have to compete?
Not long after, Yan Bugui, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong entered Lu Weimin's home together. About ten minutes later, they came out.
They announced a general meeting.
The heads of Compounds 1, 2, and 3 each notified their residents, and soon representatives and even entire families from each household came out to attend the gathering.
There were no tables or chairs this time, so everyone stood. Yan Bugui spoke first, smiling and saying:
"Today we hold a plenary meeting for the benefit of everyone. What are the benefits? Let us invite Director Li to give you a detailed introduction. Now, please warmly welcome Director Li to speak!"
Yan Bugui took the lead in applauding, followed by Liu Haizhong, and then Yi Zhonghai was also moved to applaud, and the atmosphere in the venue gradually became heated.
Li Jing came forward with a smile.
At this time, everyone realized that Director Li's hairstyle had returned to the short hair that reached his ears when they first met, and he looked more capable and charming.
Li Jing began to speak: "Dear neighbors, thank you for taking the time to attend this meeting tonight. The theme of this meeting is about the replacement of the new version of the currency. I am a member of the community neighborhood committee and I understand everyone's concerns about the replacement of the new version of the currency. The main concern is that the face value of the currency has shrunk by 10,000 times, which makes everyone feel uneasy and afraid of being at a disadvantage.
But in fact, there is no need to worry too much. The face value of the currency has indeed changed, but the purchasing power will not change.
For example, a chicken used to cost around 10,000 yuan, but now it only costs more than 10 yuan when converted into the new currency.
Do you think there is a problem with this?
Furthermore, the salary sounds less, from hundreds of thousands to tens of yuan, but the actual purchasing power has not decreased, it just sounds a bit less familiar.
Some people are worried that if they change to the new currency, others will not change, which will make them suffer. I can tell you clearly that this is not the case, because the country has a clear regulation: if the new currency is not exchanged in time, the old currency will lose its validity after a certain period of time.
Therefore, if you fail to exchange within the specified time, you will suffer losses. Therefore, please feel free to exchange the new currency.
In addition, in order to eliminate concerns, I promise that if anyone suffers losses due to exchanging new currencies, we will compensate them.
As the director of the community neighborhood committee, my words count, and I welcome everyone to witness me fulfilling my promises.
In order to encourage everyone to actively exchange the new currency, my wife and I jointly invested in purchasing a large amount of sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Any family that follows me to the designated bank to complete currency exchange in the next two days will receive 20 kilograms of sweet potatoes and 20 kilograms of potatoes as a reward. "
Li Jing's speech dispelled everyone's doubts, and with the material incentives, everyone seemed eager to try.
"Director Li, I want to sign up!" A resident stepped forward quickly, "I want to sign up too!"
"And I!"
Immediately, residents rushed forward to sign up.
Li Jing looked at her husband happily, and then said loudly: "Everyone, don't crowd, be careful, there are enough sweet potatoes and potatoes, everyone can have a portion!"
Jia Dongxu was also attracted and wanted to get those sweet potatoes and potatoes, but he was worried that Li Jing would not allow him to register to receive them. After some inner struggle, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of these 20 kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes and joined the team.
Sister Fei and Xiao Han were shocked and impressed by how effective Lu Weimin's method of helping his wife was. Sister Fei even gave Lu Weimin a thumbs up.
At this time, a brave neighbor from the courtyard next door plucked up the courage to step forward, saying that he was a resident living next door, and asked if he could participate in the activity of exchanging new currency for sweet potatoes and potatoes.
After hearing this, Li Jing looked at her husband very happily. Lu Weimin nodded.
So Li Jing agreed to the neighbor's request.
Soon, the size of the team expanded several times.
Lu Weimin didn't expect that the trick of giving gifts with deposits, which was later borrowed from the banking industry, would be so effective.
These sweet potatoes and potatoes grown in the portable space did not cost a penny and successfully improved his wife's work performance.
Sure enough, people are always willing to take advantage of small opportunities.
Early the next morning,
Li Jing led a large group of people to the People's Bank of China government service branch on Qianmen Street to queue up to exchange the new version of banknotes.
When the leaders of the branch were troubled by the fact that no one came to exchange new money, they were very happy to see so many people brought by Li Jing coming to exchange banknotes.
"Wow! Director Li, I am so grateful. When I have the chance, I will definitely invite you and your spouse to the restaurant to dine together to express my gratitude!"
In just one day, Li Jing exceeded the performance target assigned to her by the subdistrict office. She ranked first in the evaluation of Beijing officials, far exceeding the second place!
Li Jing felt extremely happy.
News of Chen Xueru's pregnancy again
One day in mid-March, in the office of Chen Xueru, deputy director of Lou’s Steel Plant.
Chen Xueru was busy in the office processing various forms and documents submitted by the head of the purchasing department and preparing to sign them.
Suddenly, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach and couldn't help but cover her mouth to vomit.
"Minister Chen, are you okay? Do you need me to take you to the medical room?" Mr. Zhang, director of the purchasing department, said worriedly.
"Am I really pregnant?" Chen Xueru was excited, but she remained calm and said, "It's okay, don't worry about it."
In the afternoon, Chen Xueru left the steel plant, took a rickshaw, and went to the Red Star Women's Hospital for examination.
"Congratulations, ma'am! You are indeed pregnant!" said the female doctor with a smile.
"It's great, I'm pregnant again!" Since learning that the first child was born a girl, and her husband's wife gave birth to a boy, Chen Xueru has been longing to give birth to a son for her husband. Now, this dream has hope of coming true.
Chen Xueru left the Red Star Hospital with great joy and returned to the steel factory. She went home in the evening with the intention of telling her husband the exciting news.
This period of time, which usually seems to pass quickly, seems to be particularly long.
Finally I got through the day of waiting. Just like usual.
Lu Weimin invited several close friends to a small bar near Qianmen for dinner and drinks. However, when they arrived at the store, they found a notice of closure posted there.
It turned out that the adoptive father of the pub owner He Yongqiang had unfortunately passed away today. Because the Qianmen Tavern was not open, everyone went to a nearby pub.
After drinking,
Lu Weimin left the tavern and came to Fengju Hutong.
As soon as he entered the house, Chen Xueru, who had heard the noise, hurried forward to greet him: "Husband, you are finally back! I have been waiting so anxiously!"
"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious today? Didn't I satisfy you the day before yesterday? You must have cried out for mercy back then!" Lu Weimin said with a smile, hugging Chen Xueru.
"It's not that reason! Husband, I have good news to tell you. I'm pregnant!" Chen Xueru held Lu Weimin's hand and placed it on her abdomen, saying with a smile on her face.
"Great! My husband's hard work has finally paid off!" Lu Weimin was also very happy to learn that Chen Xueru was pregnant again. He knew that his officially registered wife had been looking forward to getting pregnant again and giving him a son.
However, perhaps because I drank too much spiritual spring water or for some other reason, although my physique is much stronger than before, it is not easy for my wife to get pregnant. It is not comparable to the past.
In the past, both Li Jing and Chen Xueru succeeded almost in one try.
But now, whether it is Li Jing or Chen Xueru, although they did not take any measures every time, Li Jing has never gotten pregnant, while Chen Xueru only got pregnant today.
However, Lu Weimin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Xueru was finally pregnant, proving that even if it was a little more difficult than before, it was still possible in the end.
"Do you think you can give birth to a son for me this time?" Chen Xueru asked expectantly.
"I love both boys and girls!" Lu Weimin didn't dare to say too much, otherwise if it was a girl, he was afraid that Chen Xueru would be disappointed.
"No! I must give birth to a son for you! I can't lose to Sister Jing!"
"If I give birth to a son, then I will have two children in the family, one boy and one girl. In terms of children, I will surpass Sister Jing! I am so excited and happy!" Chen Xueru became more and more excited as she spoke.
"Do you really have to compete with each other?" Lu Weimin asked with a smile.
"Of course it's important! My first baby was a girl, so I lost to Sister Jing. I will definitely make up for it with this one! But in this case, I may need to hire a nanny to help take care of Xiaoru!"
Lu Weimin asked: "Will hiring a nanny affect our lives?"
"Absolutely not! Let her work during the day and go home at night. Besides, we have a lot of rooms, so we can find a room where we can meet without being disturbed!"
Lu Weimin nodded: "Then find one! But we can't rush this matter. We need to choose a nanny who is healthy, hardworking, qualified and trustworthy. And we must keep it confidential and not let anyone know."
"My husband is right! If you have a good candidate, please introduce him to me!"
"Ok!"
It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening.
Lu Weimin returned to his home in Ermingang Hutong.
The lights are on in the living room.
Sister Fei was lying on the sofa and seemed to be asleep.
Lu Weimin walked over and sat down next to her. "Sister Fei, Sister Fei! Why did you fall asleep on the sofa? Go back to your room and sleep. It's easy to catch a cold here!"
Sister Fei snorted softly, and after waking up, she looked at Lu Weimin with sleepy eyes. It took her a long time to react, and she smiled and said softly: "I was waiting for you, and I fell asleep while waiting! Are you free tomorrow? Accompany me to exchange some new currency!"
Please like...
"There are no classes in the afternoon."
"Okay, I'll pick you up then."
"Okay, when do Jingjing, Xiaohan and the baby go to bed?"
"Xiaohan goes to bed around nine, Jingjing goes to bed around ten, and the child goes to bed even earlier."
"They've all been going to bed very early lately."
"That's not too early. Before we got married, Jingjing went to bed around 8 or 9. After marrying you, she stayed up a lot more late, and even more after having the baby. Recently, because I'm taking care of the child, she's resting a little earlier."
Lu Weimin returned to the room, took his clothes and prepared to take a shower. He looked at his sleeping wife, kissed her on the cheek, and then took his clothes to the bathroom.
Noon the next day.
Lu Weimin walked out of Tsinghua University.
Sure enough, he saw the familiar jeep parked outside the door.
The car attracted the attention of students and teachers passing by, because in that era, a jeep was as eye-catching as a modern luxury car, not to mention that a beautiful lady was driving it.
Seeing Lu Weimin walking towards the car, everyone couldn't help but reveal envy and curiosity in their eyes.
"Look, senior Lu Weimin is walking towards the jeep!"
