The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Chapter 297 Eating soft food

He originally planned to take the bus back to the county town, but he happened to meet Lu Shunping who was delivering goods into the city and preparing to return. He then got on his truck and enjoyed an unexpected ride.

Although the space inside the carriage was a bit crowded, fortunately the narrow berth behind the truck cab could barely accommodate everyone after some effort.

Erbao and Xiaobao are two energetic little guys who playfully insist on climbing onto the cargo compartment at the back of the truck to experience the fun of "open-air seating".

Although they were naughty, the children knew their limits. Dabao was also eager to try and wanted to go to the back to get some fresh air and clear his head. So Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi told them to put on more clothes and let them go.

Xiaoyun, who was still young, stayed with Xu Xiufang and sat on the small bed in the cab. Xie Yi sat in the co-pilot's seat so that he could take care of them at any time.

Lu Shunping and Xie Yi had not seen each other for many years. When they met, he was so excited that his face turned red. He couldn't suppress his inner joy along the way and talked to Xie Yi incessantly.

When it comes to Xie Yi's resignation from the transport team, most people in the team held a similar view as Jiang Chengping, believing that Xie Yi was planning to return to the countryside to farm.

It was not until Xu Xiufang and Dabao's excellent college entrance examination results were made public that everyone realized that Xie Yi had quit his job in order to accompany his wife to study in Beijing.

People were sincerely happy for Xie Yi because of Xu Xiufang's excellence, and believed that Xie Yi had a unique vision and had found a partner worth spending his life with.

However, behind the praise, aren't their thoughts similar to Jiang Chengping's?

Although I agree that Xie Yi's coming to Beijing is a good thing, I always feel that he is relying on his wife and living off her.

Even though they felt sorry for Xie Yi's talent, they could only choose to respect his choice.

Therefore, Lu Shunping was extremely careful when asking about Xie Yi's recent situation, for fear of touching the other party's sensitive nerves.

He only talked about his recent situation, and occasionally he couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned something.

Xie Yi keenly caught this subtle emotional fluctuation, "What's wrong, is there anything bothering you?"

Lu Shunping rubbed his tired neck, his expression showing a hint of helplessness. "It's not a big deal. I just heard that the work point system will be abolished and the household contract responsibility system will be implemented. This is great news for us farmers, but it's hard to say for our transport team. We may have to lay off some employees."

Their transport team was not large to begin with, and transporting grain to various communes in the county was one of their main businesses.

Once the contract responsibility system is implemented, this part of the stable business will undoubtedly face a huge impact.

Losing such a big piece of cake is undoubtedly a test of life and death for small transport teams like Lu Shunping.

In order to maintain operations, layoffs seem to be an inevitable cruel reality!

Xie Yi fell into deep thought. This news was indeed a headache.

But when he saw Lu Shunping's gloomy face, he suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said firmly: "If you want to develop in Beijing one day, remember to come to me!"

"Looking for you?"

Lu Shunping was a little surprised. He turned around and glanced at Xu Xiufang in the back seat. He lowered his voice and asked Xie Yi suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Is he asking me to visit my sister-in-law?

Lu Shunping felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Brother Xie was so good to him. He hadn't achieved anything yet, but he still wanted to help him!

But how could I make things difficult for Brother Xie?

Even though my sister-in-law's family is well-off and she graduated from a prestigious school, people have already been gossiping about Brother Xie coming to their house. If I get involved, wouldn't it confirm the rumors that Brother Xie is a gigolo?

Although the transport team may face layoffs, it is still unclear whether any of them will be laid off.

Even if he was unfortunately laid off, he still had some savings.

He cannot become a burden on Brother Xie's path forward!

Just as Lu Shunping was about to politely refuse, Xie Yi seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He raised his eyebrows, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

Why does everyone think this way?

Is there something wrong with me, or do they misunderstand me too deeply?

Even if you are a "gift recipient", how can you possibly bring others along to eat with you?

How whimsical!

Xie Yi glanced at Lu Shunping unexpectedly, and covered his right hand with his left hand, his knuckles cracking crisply, and his tone was mixed with a hint of teasing and helplessness: "What are you thinking about?"

As soon as Brother Xie, whom Lu Shunping was familiar with, stepped into his sight, the familiar unruly and confident look on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a flattering smile, and his voice was a bit embarrassed and dry: "Oh, I was really thinking about it, I was thinking about it, haha, haha..."

The laughter seemed particularly abrupt in the air.

Xie Yi snorted softly. Although the voice was low, it revealed a majesty that could not be ignored.

Xu Xiufang couldn't help but chuckle, she reached out and patted Xie Yi's arm gently, her eyes full of gentle reproach, signaling him to stop teasing Lu Shunping.

She understood what he meant and added more details to Xie Yi's words, her tone full of encouragement: "Brother Xie has a big plan in mind, and he is planning to set up a racing team. Lu Shunping, you are a great driver. If you have the opportunity to come to Beijing in the future, maybe you can fight side by side with Brother Xie and struggle together!"

Lu Shunping listened to Xu Xiufang's words, his eyes full of confusion, as if his head was instantly filled with question marks. He rubbed his ears in disbelief, as if this would make him hear more clearly: "Sister-in-law, did I hear it right? Forming a team? And it's Brother Xie?"

He turned his head and looked out the window, just as the car turned into a new street, he almost blurted out in surprise: "Brother Xie is really going to form a team?"

Xie Yi raised a faint smile and asked, "Don't you trust me?"

When asked this question, Lu Shunping answered almost reflexively: "I believe it! Of course I believe it!"

Deep down, he never doubted Xie Yi's abilities; every move of his elder brother always exceeded his expectations.

However, the news of forming a fleet came too suddenly, like a thunderbolt in a clear sky, causing Lu Shunping's thoughts to stagnate for a moment.

In his impression, didn't Xie Yi follow Xu Xiufang to Beijing, become a live-in son-in-law, and prepare to live a warm and peaceful life?

How did you suddenly get involved in the field of motorcades?

Sensing Lu Shunping's doubts, Xie Yi decided not to beat around the bush and said bluntly: "I am now in Beijing, working with a few brothers to do waste recycling business, and the business is pretty good. If we want to expand the scale, transportation will become a big problem. It just so happens that the national policy has been relaxed, so I am thinking about buying a few trucks and specializing in transportation."

Xu Xiufang stood aside, smiling and nodding in agreement.

In fact, Xie Yi still had something to say in his heart.

Although the current transportation industry has not yet fully developed, the demand for transportation will inevitably surge after the policies are relaxed. He has seen this opportunity and is preparing to further expand and establish a transportation company based on the scrap yard.

This plan was the result of careful consideration between him and Xu Xiufang, but the scrap factory was still in its infancy and the idea of ​​a transportation company had not yet been implemented. If he had not met Lu Shunping by chance today, he would not have been in a hurry to mention this matter at this moment.
