In the afternoon, Lu Jingqiu was cleaning the house when someone from the unit's Propaganda Department suddenly arrived. Jingqiu recognized him; he was an uncle from her aunt's department and the father of Yangzi, a friend Xiao Shun played with.
"Uncle Yang."
"Xiao Qiu, I have a favor to ask you this time."
"What is it?" Lu Jingqiu immediately put down what she was doing, washed her hands, and prepared to pour a glass of water for Uncle Yang.
"The unit wants your help with a propaganda task."
Uncle Yang didn't let Lu Jingqiu pour him a glass of water; instead, he asked her to accompany him to the activity center in the big courtyard.
While walking, he described the situation there.
It was the holiday season, so the kids were off school, but the adults were either working or training and couldn't spare the time to look after their children.
