Strict Wife of the ’70s Manages the Household - CH 373
Deputy Director Gao patted Han Qingsong on the shoulder and said affectionately, “We heroes have the same viewpoint; let’s talk more in the future.”
Han Qingsong, “I’m not, nor do I dare to call myself a hero. If I have the time, I still have much to learn from you all.”
Deputy Director Li was so angry that his eyes were red. He sat in his seat, not responding to any calls regardless of who it was. Suddenly, he slammed the table,”Am I doing it for myself? Am I not doing it for everyone?”
Deputy Director Gao immediately teased him, “Deputy Director Li, don’t be angry— no one said you were doing it for yourself. We were all just discussing the matter at hand, but everything will be settled once we sentence that bullshit Brigade Leader.”
He couldn’t even remember the name.
Han Qingsong didn’t want to stay any longer to form a brotherhood with these people, so he led Luo Haicheng and the others home before parting ways at the village entrance.
Luo Haicheng smiled and said, “Director Han, you’re very efficient!”
Han Qingsong said indifferently, Might as well do something since we’re getting food and monetary payment. Let’s not have the Public Security Bureau be faced with the risks of closing down anytime soon. If that were to happen, none of us would survive with such a dent in wages and contribution.”
Luo Haicheng laughed loudly, “Brothers, you heard him, didn’t you?”
Several people laughed and said, “We heard him.”
The Public Security Bureau itself was a redundant department. In the past, the Commune did not even need the Public Security Bureau and it was only established during the formation of the Revolutionary Committee.
Everyone didn’t have a single clue as to whether or not the bureau would be revoked.
But after hearing what Han Qingsong said, they became full of energy.
Han Qingsong waved his hand and rode his bicycle home. He saw the dim light of his house yard from a distance and a feeling of warmth surged in his heart despite still being far away.
It was late, so the children had already finished their homework and went to bed. Lin Lan turned out to have washed and dried the clothes on the west kang and proceeded to wait for him while sewing.
Dawang and Sanwang’s clothes tend to wear out very quickly, so she had to pay more attention to their clothing.
Han Qingsong was quite busy these days, so she had to do the mending by herself.
Looking at her mended handiwork and at the slim-fit cotton vest that Han Qingsong sewed for her, she felt ashamed.
Han Qingsong also comforted her, saying that most of the tailors were homosexual men.
Just as her mind was running wild, she heard some movement from outside and immediately leaped onto the ground to open the door.
“It’s really late, so if it’s inconvenient, you can stay at the County Guest House. Coming home at this hour from such a distance must have been very tiring.”
Although he was busy, he would return home to sleep no matter how late he would end up returning. Unless he had left the country, he would basically refrain from staying overnight.
Han Qingsong handed her two lunch boxes, “This is 2 Yuan, it was meant to serve as an accommodation allowance.”
Since he returned home, they could save it up.
Lin Lan laughed before she touched the heavy lunch box. Knowing that he hadn’t eaten, she said, “Then you should have eaten your dinner. Coming home on an empty stomach— even if you don’t mind it, I can’t bear the thought.”
Han Qingsong’s heart skipped a beat as he couldn’t help but hook her waist and give her a lingering kiss.
Lin Lan, “It’s already really late, why won’t you go in the house first?”
