Back to 70s: To build a career, don’t be a grudge but a group favorite

The two of them talked as they walked, and Lu Jingming really chose to walk in places where there were many people.

He had waited too long for this day.

Now that the time has finally come, I naturally have to take Han Qiyue for a walk around the campus.

Many people saw the two of them walking hand in hand.

After all, it was a university campus. Even if the two walked hand in hand, the students did not react other than whistling a few times.

There were even many students looking at him with envy.

After all, Lu Jingming is definitely a handsome guy. Even if he looks a little haggard these days, the handsomeness that emanates from his bones is still hard to conceal.

Han Qiyue is even more of a celebrity in the school. Even though there have been some people in the school saying recently that Han Qiyue was admitted by Mr. Lu because of connections, Han Qiyue herself is undoubtedly still excellent.

"In July, many people envied us."

Lu Jingming said to Han Qiyue proudly, as if being envied by others was such an honorable thing.

Han Qiyue was really speechless. She didn't think there was anything to be proud of being envied by others.

It is true that a man remains a boy until he dies.

The two walked outside for nearly an hour before going home.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that a table full of dishes had been placed on the table, with a combination of meat and vegetables, which looked delicious.

Aunt Liu Lanying was carrying the last dish of soup and was setting it out. She saw the two of them and said, "You're finally back. I was thinking of going out to look for you."

Lu Jingming took Han Qiyue's hand and said, "Aunt Liu's cooking skills are getting better and better. I can smell the fragrance even when I'm outside the door."

Liu Lanying smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and she said, "You are getting better and better at talking, and you are so sweet on the lips. People who have a partner are different."

In the living room, several elderly people were sitting together and talking. When they saw Lu Jingming holding Han Qiyue's hand, they all smiled knowingly.

"Mr. Lu, congratulations. Such good cabbage now belongs to you." Teacher Fei said somewhat sourly.

Although Han Qiyue is not their child, they have watched her grow up step by step over the past few years.

Looking at Lu Jingming now, I always feel like my cabbages are being eaten by pigs.

"This kid has good taste." Grandpa Lu is very satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law.

I just hope that other grandchildren in the family can have such blessing.

But even though such a good granddaughter-in-law is so good, those short-sighted people still despise her because she is a country girl.

What's wrong with country girls? Who says country girls can't be excellent?

Grandma Lu urged the two people: "Hurry up and wash your hands, we will eat soon."

Lu Jingming took Han Qiyue to wash their hands, and several elderly people also sat down at the table to prepare for dinner.

It was a very pleasant meal. After all, there was no one to spoil the fun today.

Han Qiyue didn't have to worry about someone suddenly saying something mean to her.

After dinner, several people sat in the living room chatting and eating fruit.

Grandma Lu then talked about the marriage of Han Qiyue and Lu Jingming.

"Mr. Fei, Mr. Zheng, although the two children are in a free love relationship, we still have to follow the rules. I would like to ask you two to be matchmakers."

Mr. Zheng and Mr. Fei never expected that the two elders of the Lu family would ask them to be matchmakers.

However, they don’t know the Han family, so it might be difficult to be the matchmaker.

When Han Qiyue heard people starting to discuss her marriage, she felt a little shy. She just lowered her head and kept silent, concentrating on eating the fruit.

Lu Jingming, on the other hand, was peeling oranges for Han Qiyue seriously.

He peeled the orange very carefully, even peeling off the white peel, before handing it to Han Qiyue.

While the elderly people were talking, they were also watching the interaction between Han Qiyue and Lu Jingming, and they were very satisfied with the state of their relationship.

"Don't worry, this is not a difficult matter. When this semester is over, we will go to the northwest and you will know that the Han family members are extremely honest and kind." Grandma Lu looked at Teacher Zheng and Teacher Fei, who looked embarrassed, and said hurriedly.

"But, are we really suitable for each other?" Teacher Zheng was eager to try, but a little worried, so he could only ask Grandma Lu.

"What's inappropriate? Speaking of which, July has been taken care of by you two since she arrived at the school. Maybe after meeting you, July's family will get closer."

Han Qiyue also agreed with this statement.

In the past few years in Beijing, apart from the care given to me by the Chu family, the two people who gave me the most care were Teacher Fei and Teacher Zheng.

She was their student, but they really took care of her like their own child.

"Then we agreed. To be honest, we have been thinking about going to see it in the past few years."

After the two elders from the Lu family came back, they kept talking about how friendly the Han family and the people in the village were. They were still very interested in this place.

If you have nothing to do during the holidays, you can go there.

"Otherwise, let's just celebrate the New Year there!" Lu Jingming suggested.

There were only a few months left, so he worked overtime and waited until before the New Year to take a long vacation and plan his marriage.

After hearing what Lu Jingming said, the two elders of the Lu family indeed agreed very much.

Grandma Lu also asked Lu Jingming to write a letter to the Han family another day to inform them in advance that they were going to come to discuss the marriage.

Lu Jingming immediately agreed and said that he would write a letter later.

In a blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.

Han Qiyue is about to graduate.

Except Han Qiyue, the other girls have to go to work.

Although, in principle, today's college students have to return to their hometowns.

But Beijing Aerospace University is not an ordinary school. The country has spent a lot of effort to cultivate aerospace technology talents, and it is certainly not for them to return to their hometown and be abandoned.

Most of the students eventually went into professional and technical fields, so several people in the dormitory stayed in Beijing.

In fact, they all went to almost the same unit, so even though they were about to graduate and would go their separate ways, it wasn't very sad for any of them.

In Ma Anmei's words, it was just a short separation, and after reporting for duty, they would see each other every day again.

According to regulations, they can go back home first and then report to the unit.

In principle, registration should be completed and work should be started before the 15th day of the first lunar month.

This is great news for Hu Yuanyuan.

She and Wu Jiefang have reached the stage of discussing marriage.

Staying in Beijing to work is much better than returning to my hometown.

Considering that Hu Yuanyuan would stay in Beijing to work after returning home this time, Wu Jiefang discussed with his family and decided to go to her house to propose marriage and settle the marriage.

Ma Anmei and the others smiled and said, “I didn’t expect that with so many people in our dormitory, the first ones to be decided were you two, the youngest ones.”

Ma Anmei is the oldest sister in the dormitory. She is not young anymore, but she has never met the right person. Her family has urged her several times.

But marriage is unpredictable. If destiny hasn’t arrived yet, it’s useless to say anything.

She is about to graduate, and her family has asked her to prepare for a blind date.

What her family members said was right. Now that she has a stable job and has established a career, it should be easy for her to start a family.

Moreover, girls who graduate from university and have stable jobs will naturally have an easier time finding a partner.

"It's okay. We believe that we will be able to see our brother-in-law soon."

A few girls were chatting and laughing while packing their luggage.

After living in the school for four years, we had a lot of luggage. Fortunately, none of us left Beijing and never came back.

Han Qiyue suggested that when leaving, one should only take things that must be taken home, and leave the rest at home temporarily, as they would need them when they return.

Several people thought that Han Qiyue’s proposal was very good.

Except for Ma Anmei, everyone else took the train home the next day. They moved most of their clothes and other things to Han Qiyue's yard, and then made an appointment to go out for a big meal in the evening.

Several restaurants have opened near the school recently. They are not big, but not small either.

According to Han Qiuyue, if these restaurants are managed properly, they will become good restaurants in the future.

In particular, some of the restaurants have delicious food, and students in the school will go there to spend money.

In particular, there is a Sichuan restaurant called Shi Zai Chuan, which serves delicious food.

Han Qiuyue didn’t know whether it was authentic or not, but it was very much to her taste.

A few girls have made an appointment to eat in Sichuan tonight.

As graduation is approaching, many people choose to get together and Food in Sichuan is packed with customers.

Fortunately, they had already booked a private room at Dining in Chuan at noon, which seated eight people, and the seven of them had a great meal.

None of them are short of money, so when eating, they of course choose what they like without worrying about the price.

"I must have one portion of boiled pork slices, one portion of boiled pork, and twice-cooked pork. Yuanyuan likes it..."

Ma Anmei ordered eight dishes in a row according to everyone's preferences before stopping.

"There's so much, can we finish it?" Hu Yuanyuan asked.

"It's okay, we can finish it. We have to believe in our own strength." Han Qiyue looked at Hu Yuanyuan mischievously.

This little girl is always a little worried every time she eats, but every time she eats, she doesn't show any weakness and eats faster than others.

Especially twice-cooked pork, she can eat a whole plate by herself. I don’t know how she can eat it with her small body.

Hu Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

"This is enough. If it's not enough, we can just add more."

After Ma Anmei ordered the dishes, she handed them to the waiter.

The food hadn't arrived yet, and a few people were sitting there chatting.

"If I hadn't gone to college, I would probably be considering opening a small restaurant now." Ma Anmei smiled as she spoke about her possible other future.

"I don't believe it, Meizi. I think if you hadn't gone to college, you might have two children by now." Hu Yuanyuan made a face and said to Ma Anmei.

After hearing this, several people actually felt that what Hu Yuanyuan said made a lot of sense. It was because of going to college that they had a different life and had the possibility to imagine the future and envision the past.

If they cannot go to college, there is a high probability that they will really become one of the millions of working women, holding a child in their arms, carrying a child on their backs, and circling around the stove every day.

“Thankfully, we were born in a good era so that we can have a life different from that of our parents’ generation.”

Han Qiyue picked up the teacup in her hand and wanted to clink glasses with a few people.

Hu Yuanyuan said: "Actually, we can have a drink. You are about to graduate from college, but you haven't had a drink yet. Don't you feel sorry?"

It would be a lie to say that they had no regrets, but in the past few years, they had been busy studying and making money and had never thought about drinking.

"How about we have some beer?" Ma Anmei, the most steady one, was also fooled by Hu Yuanyuan.

After a collective vote, all seven agreed and the decision was made.

Several girls started drinking outside for the first time in their lives.

Hu Yuanyuan was the one who suggested drinking, but after taking a sip, she almost vomited.

"what happened?"

"This tastes too bad, why do so many people like it?" Hu Yuanyuan swallowed the wine with great difficulty and took a sip of water before speaking.

"I think it's actually okay." Han Qiyue accepted it well and felt that the beer was not very bad.

"When we have money in the future, we will drink wine, which is much better than beer." Duan Chunxiao also thinks beer is not tasty.

"Then I wish that we can all make a lot of money in the future and have lots and lots of money." Han Qiyue raised his glass again.

Because none of the people liked the taste of beer very much, they didn't get drunk. They drank three or four bottles of beer separately and were just slightly tipsy.

However, all eight dishes, which were real staples, were eaten up by several people, even the side dish of bean sprouts was not spared.

Several people ate so much that they could hardly stand up.

Because they ate too much, several people did not return to school immediately after the meal, but instead walked around the streets outside the school.

"In a blink of an eye, we have all grown old, but the faces of our freshmen are so full of youth!" Ma Anmei said with emotion.

They were students recruited in the first year after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Their ages were different. For example, Ma Anmei was not young when she was in school, and now she is indeed considered old.

The number of students behind them, recent graduates, begins to increase, and they naturally look younger.

"It's okay, Meizi. When they leave school in three years, their mentality should be the same as ours now." Zhang Xiaohong was open-minded and comforted Ma Anmei with a smile.

Sure enough, after hearing what Zhang Xiaohong said, Ma Anmei's melancholy mood disappeared.

"Do you still remember Li Mingxing?" Duan Chunxiao suddenly asked.

"Li Mingxing?" Li Xiaofei thought for a moment before saying, "Is he the classmate who dropped out of school?"

There were originally eight people in the dormitory, but because Li Mingxing left due to an accident, there have always been only seven people in their dormitory.

However, when they mentioned Li Mingxing again at this time, they almost couldn’t remember what kind of person Li Mingxing was.

I don’t even know how Li Mingxing is doing after leaving school.

But what is certain is that they and Li Mingxing eventually took different paths.

Maybe we won’t know each other anymore when we meet again.

"Yeah, I don't know how she is doing now. Actually, now that I think about it, she is also a straightforward person, but she has lost her sense of propriety because of her family's indulgence."

"Forget it, let's not think about her. I guess, even if she were standing in front of us now, we might not be able to recognize her." Han Qiyue shook her head and said.
