Chapter 136: Parent-Teacher Conference
When Xu Dong arrived home, his brother-in-law Ma Jie came back at about the same time.
Yang Lina took a wet towel, Xu Dong took it and wiped his face, the wind and sand have become more and more frequent recently, as long as you go out, you will be covered in dust.
"Brother-in-law, is the road going well?"
Ma Jie nodded: "There was a traffic jam in the middle for a while, but everything else is fine." ”
Traffic?
This is a rare thing, since the outbreak of the Great Flare, the number of cars on the market has almost dropped by 70%, unless there is a sandstorm, it is difficult to have traffic jams in urban areas.
"Where is the traffic?"
"At the intersection of the Liangjing Expressway and the South Sixth Ring Road, what pipelines are being laid over there, there are more engineering vehicles, accounting for half of the road." Ma Jie introduced.
"It is estimated that it is engaged in the operation of underground cables, and this is what our company has mainly focused on recently." Xu Dong speculated.
In fact, the underground construction of cables in the capital area has started a long time ago, but it has been promoted in the core urban area in recent years, and remote places are rarely involved.
But now, with the expansion of the temperature difference between day and night, coupled with the occasional extreme weather, in order to ensure the safety of transmission lines, Yanjing has begun to fully popularize the underground cable.
Ma Jie suddenly realized: "I said, dig the pipe, dig the pipe, why did you dismantle the telephone poles, it turns out that this is the case!" ”
Skipping this topic, Xu Dong asked about the corn flour again: "Brother-in-law, I have helped you get the corn flour here, what are you going to do?" ”
"Great." Ma Jie couldn't help but say, "I'll send the post later, it's better to send it back as soon as possible." ”
"Send it all back at once?" Xu Dong hesitated.
"Uh, what's wrong?"
"Brother-in-law, I still suggest that you send it back in batches, it's enough to send 50 catties every month, send too much, I'm afraid that the post office will deliberately lose the goods."
In his previous life, Xu Dong had heard a lot of news about this, and later, some of them didn't even let go of a few catties of rice.
Ma Jie slapped his thigh.
He really didn't think about it in this way, his brother-in-law's suggestion was very timely, and the food was so precious at the moment, if he really lost it, then he would have the heart to die.
"Dongzi, you're right, I'll only send thirty catties back every month in the future, and fifty catties is still a bit much."
Ma Jie also suddenly thought that in addition to his parents, he also has an older brother and a younger sister in his hometown.
"Brother-in-law, you can do it if you think about it." Xu Dong said with a smile.
Yang Lina on the side seemed to want to speak and stopped, of course Xu Dong knew what the other party wanted to say, but it was impossible for him to agree, so he could only act as if he didn't see anything.
……
At two o'clock in the afternoon, "revenge" came, and Yang Lina woke up her husband who was taking a nap in the vegetable garden.
"What are you doing at noon?" Xu Dong rubbed his eyes and complained.
"Coco's class is going to have a parent-teacher meeting in the afternoon, you happen to be at home, so go for me!"
"Can't you go? I hadn't been to any parent-teacher conferences, so I had no experience at all. Xu Dong said trickly.
"If you don't have experience, you have to go, and the children's education is not my business alone, and you, the father, can't push it all to me." Yang Lina said righteously.
Xu Dong smiled bitterly: "Isn't it just going through the motions, why are you so serious?" ”
"Don't talk so much nonsense, are you going?"
"Can't I go!" Xu Dong had no choice but to agree to come down.
Yang Lina finally reminded her: "Remember to change into police uniforms, your two daughters have already boasted about Haikou in the class, you can't dismantle the two of them." ”
"Got it." Xu Dong said weakly.
After some freshening up, I came to the school, first I signed in, and then I was taken into an empty room by the head teacher.
Fortunately, there were no students to observe, and Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
A mother Li next to her is a self-cooked, probably because she is looking at Xu Dong, and she is the only male parent at the scene, so she can't help but chat with each other.
"This father, I don't seem to have seen you before, which student's parent are you?"
"Xu Ke and Xu Le." Xu Dong nodded.
"Yo, it turns out that you are the father of the twins, your two daughters are too cute, but their academic performance is a little worse." Mother Li said with a look of regret.
Xu Dong said embarrassedly: "The child is still young, and it is estimated that it will be better when he is older." ”
"Dad Xu, you're wrong, let me tell you, primary school is the most critical moment, if you don't learn well in primary school, it will be even more difficult to learn in junior high school."
"Really? Then I'll pay more attention in the future. Xu Dong smiled and coped.
A mother next to her interjected: "Look at you in a police uniform, are you from that substation?" ”
"I'm not from any substation, I work in the security department of the power company, and now I can barely count half a police officer!" Xu Dong hurriedly explained.
"Dad Xu, you can do it in this unit, it's much easier than being a policeman." Mother Li exclaimed.
"It's okay, where to work is not work." Xu Dong said modestly.
Li's mother is more serious: "This is different, our family is from Yanjing Construction Engineering, and he has been busy to death in the past few months, and he can't go home once a month." ”
"Is he on a business trip?" Xu Dong said curiously.
"Where is a business trip? The construction site is on the side of Rong'an New District, and I heard that the above is urgent, and there is a large-scale planting base to be built. ”
"I know that." Another mother interjected, "Not only the planting base, but the entire Rong'an New Area has been planned, saying that it is to build the world's largest indoor planting base group." ”
With such a reminder, Xu Dong quickly recalled the relevant content of his previous life, and a few years later, Rong'an New Area seemed to have become the largest grain production center in the north.
"Really? If this is true, then we will not be short of food here in the future. Li's mother said happily.
"It's true, my husband is from the Ministry of Construction, and their unit issued a document a few months ago, but it will take at least several years before the completion of the project, so there is no large-scale publicity."
"How many years will it take?" Li's mother said disappointedly.
"With an area of 2,000 square kilometers, you think it's a child's house, if it weren't for the foundation laid in the past few years, it may not be built in ten years."
Xu Dong echoed: "This kind of indoor planting base has strict technical requirements, and it involves more upstream and downstream, which is indeed not achieved overnight." ”
"Dad Xu, I didn't expect you to know a lot, no wonder you can enter the power company." Li's mother said unexpectedly.
"Our company also has a lot of key projects in Rong'an New District, so we know a little more."
When Xu Dong went to work, although he always liked to fish, he still knew a little about some of the company's major projects.
