Traveling through 70, reborn officers with various pets

Chapter 34: Cleaning up the new residence

Ou Ruoxing returned to the dormitory and began to organize her things.

This single dormitory is not very big, only about 20 square meters.

There was originally only a bed, a desk and a chair inside.

Now that her things have been moved in, the house is piled up so full that it looks a bit crowded.

The positions of the bed and desk remain unchanged, but the storage shelf needs to be moved. Hmm~ move it to the wall behind the door.

In addition, the wardrobe was moved to the middle of the end of the bed and the storage rack, and also placed against the wall.

The beds in the dormitory are all bunk beds with upper and lower bunks. Since she lives alone, the upper bunk can be used to store boxes.

The remaining dining table and chairs can be placed in front of the wardrobe, and the stove, pots and cupboards used for cooking can be placed on the other wall of the entrance.

The room is rectangular. Ou Ruoxing looked at it for a while and decided to move the wardrobe to the wall opposite the bed. This way, she could hang a curtain in the middle of the room to separate it into the inner and outer rooms.

She did it right away. Fortunately, she had a portable space that she could use to help move the large furniture. Otherwise, she would not be able to put so many things in place by herself.

After moving the large pieces of furniture, she began to organize some daily necessities, and stored those that were seldom used or in excess in the portable space.

There were two crisp knocks on the door.

Ou Ruoxing frowned slightly and thought to herself, this is the first day I moved in and I don’t know anyone, so who would come knocking on the door at this time?

"Here I am. Wait a moment."

She put the things in her hands away and walked quickly towards the door.

When she opened the door, she saw that it was her aunt who had called someone to help her move furniture in the morning. "Hello, aunt!"

"Hey! Hello Comrade Ou! I just heard that tractor driver call you Ou Zhiqing. Is it okay for auntie to call you that?" Auntie asked, but then she felt something was wrong. "Oh, by the way, auntie is the mother of Xue Tao, the director of the Administrative Propaganda Department of our machinery factory. My last name is Deng, so you can just call me Auntie Deng."

Ou Ruoxing nodded, "Hello, Aunt Deng! You see, I'm still cleaning up, it's so messy, it's not convenient to invite you in to sit down."

Since he is the family member of the factory leader, you have to get along well with him first no matter what.

"Hi, it's okay. I came here mainly because it's getting late. I thought you just moved in and don't know how to arrange meals. How about you come to my house for lunch today?" Aunt Deng explained and invited her to her house for dinner.

However, people of this era will not easily go to other people's homes for dinner.

"Aunt, I appreciate your kindness." Ou Ruoxing smiled and declined, "I brought some dry food with me this morning. I'll be fine with this for lunch."

After hearing this, Aunt Deng no longer insisted. She just exchanged a few simple greetings and went home.

Ou Ruoxing didn't say anything. He had just arrived in a new environment and was unfamiliar with everything, so it was normal that he had nothing to talk about.

Although I was a corporate slave in my previous life, I still can’t make friends easily, so I’ll just take it slow.

I simply ate something and started to pack my things. Then I went to the factory's logistics department to see if there was anything I could get.

"Hello, comrade! I am Ou Ruoxing, the new secretary of the Administrative Propaganda Department. I just moved into the dormitory today. I want to cook for myself. Do we have any stoves or other supplies that I can use?" Ou Ruoxing came to the Logistics Department, stated his identity, and then asked the people sitting in the office.

People in the logistics department have also heard that a new and capable secretary will be joining the factory director in the next two days.

So when people came to the logistics department to look for something, no one thought of making things difficult for her. They all wanted to make good friends with her, and maybe even give her a chance to say a good word in front of the factory director.

"Oh, Secretary Ou is here!" A plump middle-aged woman stood up and said cheerfully, "The dormitories we live in in the family compound are all in the building, so it's not very convenient to light a stove. We have a coal stove in the logistics department. You can take one back. It will be very convenient to cook."

Then he went to the logistics warehouse and found the coal stove. "Xiao Liu, go to the warehouse and light a hundred coal briquettes and send them back to Secretary Ou's dormitory."

Another young man in the office heard it, nodded, and went to work.

"Thank you, auntie!" Ou Ruoxing hurriedly thanked her.

"Hey, don't be so polite!" The plump aunt waved her hand nonchalantly, "I'm the director of the logistics department of our factory. My last name is Wan, so just call me Aunt Wan."

"Okay! Thank you, Aunt Wan!" Ou Ruoxing greeted her politely. "By the way, besides the coal stove, do we have a small charcoal stove here?"

A coal stove is used for both cooking and frying, which is not very convenient. If you have a small charcoal stove, it will be a little more convenient.

After hearing this, Aunt Wan did not answer immediately, but thought carefully, recalling the supplies in the warehouse in her mind.

After a while, he finally said, "Yes, there is, but it's a bit old, and no one wants to use it."

Ou Ruoxing originally thought she would be disappointed, but who knew there would be an unexpected surprise, "It's okay, Aunt Wan. It doesn't matter if it's a little old, as long as it works."

"Okay! I'll find it for you."

An hour later, Ou Ruoxing and Xiao Liu from the logistics department went back to the family compound with coal briquettes and two stoves.
