Xu Nannan has never been so embarrassed in two lifetimes.
She felt a little hot as she held the small paper bag in her hand. Thinking of Li Weimin’s pitiful look just now, she thought about it, and it’s better to be the next best person.
Moreover, she has been getting along with Li Weimin these days. This person is very popular, the kind of person who looks really honest, and is quite in line with the current principle of picking potential lovers.
When she arrived at the canteen, Zhu Fang had already prepared food and waited in the old place, and when she saw her coming, she beckoned.
Xu Nannan went to have a meal, and sat down with her.
Zhu Fang ate a few bites of rice, “Why didn’t I see Xiaoman?”
Xu Nannan absent-mindedly picked rice grains, “My grandma said that someone will cook at home in the future, and let Xiaoman go back to eat, so that she can replenish her body.” Actually, it was also her idea. Grandma Yu wanted her to go back to eat. There are a lot of young men who goes to work and don’t have the chance to get in touch with each other. Maybe they can get in touch with each other when they eat, so they just feed her in the cafeteria.
She thinks that the reason why she is passionate today is that she must have been talking about finding a partner for life in front of her for the past two days, which has affected her. Now, she thinks she’s just subconsciously looking for a potential partner.
Zhu Fang looked at her enviously, “You talked about the hardship you had suffered before, and now, look at you. You have everything you need. My little concern is that someone might hurt you emotionally anytime.”
Xu Nannan heard this and looked at her with a weird look in her eyes.
“Why look at me that way?”
Zhu Fang bit her chopsticks.
“Then you don’t want people to hurt you, is that right?”
Xu Nannan smiled and put something in her hand.
“Is this for me?” Zhu Fang immediately became happy, picking it up and looking at it. Xu Nannan also leaned over and took a look. A pair of hairpins, wrapped in red checkered cloth, was considered a fine hair accessory at this time.
“Nannan, I knew you were the best to me.”
Zhu Fang was so happy that she didn’t even eat any food, so she brought it over and put it on her head.
“Oh, don’t wear it yet.” Xu Nannan hurriedly stopped her. You can’t wear this thing casually. If she goes out, it means she agrees to deal with the other party.
“Are you regretting it?” Zhu Fang pursed her lips and frowned.
Xu Nannan rolled her eyes, “This is not mine. When I first came out, Secretary Li in our office asked me to bring it to you.”
“Huh?” Zhu Fang was so scared that she threw the hairpin on the table.
“He… What did he give me this for? I’m not familiar with him. ” with that, her face started to glow red.
Xu Nannan had to sigh, this era is so innocent. Sending a hairpin is a show of love. In the future, giving a diamond ring is immediately a proclamation of true love.
“You don’t want it?”
“No!”
Xu Nannan gave her a thumbs up. Although she will have to face Li Weiming’s emotionally hurt face, when she sent the things back later, in comparison, her relationship with Zhu Fang is naturally better. It is a good thing that Zhu Fang can leave the things given by men without being greedy for them.
At work in the afternoon, she secretly returned the hairpin to Li Weiming, and then made an expression of sorry.
Li Weiming’s eyes suddenly turned red.
Xu Nannan shivered, and quickly sat at her desk to read the purchase plan. Well, even after the house is settled, she still has a job to manage.
After a while, Li Weiming went out, and Sister Liu leaned over, “You won’t really do anything with Xiao Li?” She blinked her eyes with an expression of confusion.
“Not really,” Xu Nannan looked serious.
“Xiao Li is a good person. If he really has an idea, it would be great. But there may be more brothers in the family, and his parents will not be able to help by that time. But the young couple will live a good life.”
Sister Liu tried her best to promote honest people in their department.
Xu Nannan didn’t speak, “…”
After Li Weiming and Sister Liu made such a fuss, Xu Nannan felt that she had to find a chance to go on a business trip. After all, meat is only available for business trips.
Because of this, in the afternoon, she deliberately avoided Li Weiming’s eyes, and when she got off work in the afternoon, she went to find Zhu Fang and planned to go home for dinner together.
After waiting for a while, the girl was late and glanced at the Purchasing Department, “Well, that person has no response, right?”
Xu Nannan raised her eyebrows, “His eyes are still red until now, why? Did your heart softened?”
“Not at all.”
Zhu Fang’s face flushed, and she walked to the gate with her bag on her back, and Xu Nannan followed with a smile. Anyway, she would not deliberately match them up for this matter, but she could help Zhu Fang observe Li Weiming.
Ever since experiencing the Wu Qing incident, she really has gotten scared of honest people.
When they reached the gate, Director Zhu and Wei Guobing were already waiting.
The two didn’t know when to prepare, and they were still carrying things.
Xu Nannan said anxiously, “Uncle Wei, Aunt Zhu, what are you doing? I invited you to eat with me, and you still went shopping? I am embarrassed. What do you want to do next time?”
“Look at what you said, you and Xiaoman are the only ones in your house, and I was empty-handed. But don’t you still have elders in your family? We can’t make people think that the people around you are rude.” Director Zhu smiled.
Wei Guobing also said, “It’s nothing much.”
Zhu Fang was stunned, “I didn’t prepare anything.” Then immediately ran and stood beside Director Zhu, “I will eat with my aunt!”
Director Zhu patted her head, “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Zhu Fang relied on holding her hand.
Now that this is the case, Xu Nannan can’t say anything anymore. She brought everything, so she didn’t let Aunt Zhu and the others not look petty.
When a few people left the mining area, a bicycle rider brought a little girl past them.
The bike was riding very fast. Director Zhu didn’t even see who it was, but Xu Nannan saw it. The little girl behind was Xu Hong.
Xu Hong also saw Xu Nannan and her party.
Seeing that they were holding things in their hands, they guessed that they were out for dinner. Thinking of the miserable life she lived at home, Xu Nannan could still go out with others to eat and drink spicy food, and she felt very upset.
She twisted in the back seat, and Liu Hongjun, who was riding in front, stopped impatiently.
“What are you doing?!”
Liu Hongjun said unhappily.
“It’s okay, I just saw a dead star, and now, I’m in a bad mood.” Xu Hong pouted.
Liu Hongjun immediately looked at both sides, “Where, let me see what your dead star looks like.”
“Leave now.” Xu Hong snorted. She didn’t want to let Liu Hongjun see Xu Nannan. The dead girl couldn’t steal him from her too. Her skin became whiter and her temperament got better and better, after all. Just like the old man said, her face looked better.
With the virtue of Liu Hongjun, what if he changes his mind if he sees her?
“When are you taking me to your house?” She suddenly became a little irritable. The situation at home is getting worse and worse, and she is a little uncertain about what will happen in the future. It’s better to settle down quickly now. From now on, she won’t have to look at the faces of her uncle and auntie again.
When she became the daughter-in-law of the city’s Deputy Head of the Armed Forces, she would be allowed to walk sideways in this city town in the future. The entire Old Xu family had to provide for her.
A trace of impatientness flashed in Liu Hongjun’s eyes, and he smiled on his face, “Why are you so anxious? Didn’t I tell you, my dad has changed his job recently, which is the critical point.”
“What changes? Isn’t he the Vice Minister? Can they change?” Xu Hong said. She was suddenly taken aback, and said in surprise, “Could it be that he is going to get promoted?”
If he really became the Minister of the City’s Armed Forces, wouldn’t she also follow suit to make further progress?
There is a big gap between the Minister and the Deputy.
Liu Hongjun said proudly, “No, my dad is the most senior in this city. No one else can sit in this position except him. Unless…”
“Unless what?” Xu Hong said nervously.
Liu Hongjun shook his head and said, “It’s okay, unless someone is transferred from the outside, but it shouldn’t be transferred.” Don’t transfer people, just let his dad rise up, and he won’t have to worry about it for the rest of his life.
Xu Hong touched her heart. She also prayed secretly in my heart that she must be allowed to rise to the heaven in the future.
“Then let’s talk about it. As long as your father’s affairs are settled, I will visit your parents at your house.”
“I know, I know. Which time did I not listen to you? You asked me to send you back this time, didn’t I send you back?” Liu Hongjun said perfunctorily. Feeling funny in his heart. A rural girl, who is still young, is so confident that she can come to their house. Even if he agrees, his mother can use the broom to drive her out.
But in the whole class, this girl can play, so he’ll just play along.
When he arrived at the mine, Xu Hong got down from the back seat of Liu Hongjun’s bike with a proud face. She beckoned to him shyly, and when the person rode away, they took a brisk walk to the Mine’s Housing.
She grew up in the Mine and knew many people. Someone saw her coming back on a bicycle and asked her about her relationship with that person, consciously or unconsciously.
The bicycle is nice, but it looks pretty good. They heard that in the entire city, there are only two Phoenix bicycles at the government compound.
They just didn’t see it clearly, so they don’t know what bike that kid was riding.
But no matter what, people saw they have abilities.
Xu Hong’s sensation when she returned on his bicycle was no less than the feeling in the 21st century when she returned to a remote town in a BMW.
Xu Hong also learned to be clever this time. When people asked, she didn’t say anything about it, so she blushed in shame. Let people guess.
When she arrived at the dormitory, Xu Meizi was packing up her things, and when she saw her back, she put the things on the ground and told her to go back to Xu Jiansheng’s house.
“Sister Honghong, it’s not that I didn’t want to keep you, but the mine didn’t let it. You also know that this is a single dormitory. If they don’t approve it, you can’t live here. I have said a lot of good things for you. “
When Xu Meizi said this, her face was a little cold. After staying for a few days, eating hers and drinking hers, she was happy to make her leave. If it hadn’t been for her having such a good face now, she would have torn her face long ago.
Xu Hong touched her braid, which was tied with a small bow with a colorful headband.
“Sanya, do you know, how you can turn me away, but I have just arrived back?”
Xu Meizi frowned.
Xu Hong smiled, “I came back by bicycle. Phoenix bicycle. It’s the one from the Citry Committee Compound.”
Xu Meizi pursed her mouth, a little helpless. “Sister Honghong, I’m worried that you won’t go back like this. When I look back, the auntie thought it was me who spurned you not to go back. What if I got called again? My last injury hasn’t healed yet.”
“What are you afraid of, she is the Old Xu family’s maid, can she still harm you? I’m not afraid, so what are you afraid of? Even if I want to go back, I won’t go back by myself unless she comes to pick me up. Sanya, we grew up together since childhood. When I grow up, I can think of you well. If I get better in the future, how can I forget you?”
Xu Meizi smiled, and took Xu Hong. “Look at what you said, do you still pay attention to these things? I don’t really want you to go, and I am worried about the auntie. Since you are not afraid, then I am not. But I’m worried. You can wash your face first, and I’ll get some hot water.”
As she said that, she pushed Xu Hong into the house, and took the open water bucket to walk down the road, and went to the gate of the mine to get water.
Xu Hong sat in the room, leaning on the bed and humming. Having lived together for so many years, who doesn’t know whose virtue is whose?
The other young women in the dormitory watched her come back, frowning. Xu Meizi was too weak, why did she let her sister come back? They were upset.
Xu Nannan also felt disturbed.
Can anyone tell her that uninvited guests are also popular these years?
This time, Grandma Yu intends to invite a few nearby families, except for Li Jinhua’s family.
Their home is also close, but Yu Donglai doesn’t want to see them. After all, the last time this Li Jinhua saw Xu Nannan and Xu Xiaoman cleaning in this room, after knowing that this room was given to their sisters, she ran away deliberately. She went to his house to make a fuss, which shocked the old lady. So he wouldn’t ask for her this time.
The others were quite polite, knowing that Yu Donglai had recognized the two granddaughters, regardless of what they thought in their heart, their faces were kind.
In addition, Wei Guobing and Director Zhu are both able to speak, and they are all employees working in the Unit. They have the confidence to talk to others and speak up and down, so the atmosphere at home is pretty good.
Xu Nannan served the dishes and served dumplings.
Yu Donglai quickly yelled for everyone to eat together.
Don’t worry about it, just sit down and talk.
Everyone just got ready to eat, but Li Jinhua also came, with her three-year-old grandson.
Seeing her entering the door, Yu Donglai’s expression was a little ugly. Grandma Yu pulled the corner of his clothes to let him not make trouble at this time. Otherwise, it would make people laugh.
Seeing the old lady and two granddaughters, for their sake, Yu Donglai took a sigh of submission.
“Sit everyone, sit and eat.” Grandma Yu greeted with a smile.
Li Jinhua smiled and said, “I said Sister Yu, I came this time because I quarreled with you about what happened last time. I was blinded by lard this time, and I saw the wrong person. I thought Sister Nannan lied and took advantage of both of you two. So I ran to your house because I was worried for you.”
Even Yu Donglai can’t say anything, else, he would hit the smiley woman with his hand.
Grandma Yu smiled, “It’s nothing, we’re all in the neighborhood, and we will have to take care of each other in the future. Don’t make troubles about these things.”
“I have been looking at Nannan and I feel good these days. I am also very happy when I came here today.”
“I have known Sister Li for so many years, and today I know that Sister Li is a nice person.” The electrician Zeng Weiguo in the Yu Donglai factory said with a smile.
This sounded a bit ironic.
After so many years of domineering, it has changed today.
Xu Nannan knew this person, who was introduced to her specially by Yu Donglai, saying that there was a problem with the circuit at home in the future, and he could find this general Zeng Gong.
This is also the only person who doesn’t care about this house.
Because he doesn’t care about the house, and his position as an electrician is an important position in the factory, Li Jinhua is not good at arguing with him.
Li Jinhua pretended not to understand and said, “I was young before, but now I am old, and I have looked away.” She looked at Nannan again, “Nannan, If you have time in the future, go to our house to play. There are many people in the family. It’s quite Lively.”
Xu Nannan smiled.
But there was no direct response.
As for going to her house to play, this is really unnecessary. When she said that sentence, it’s all just for the show of being polite. It’s that this kind of person who is usually bad at people and then, suddenly changed for the better. There must be a reason.
Li Jinhua didn’t care about it either.
However, Zhu Fang winked at Xu Nannan, and she hadn’t figured out what was going on. There is something wrong with this.
Xu Nannan shook her head. She actually guessed a little too, it was for the house.
She doesn’t know if it is for this house or the house where Grandpa Yu and his wife lived.
But it seems that Grandpa Yu hasn’t said that he wants to give up the house. How did she know?
As she was thinking, Yu Donglai had already had a drink with everyone, and then solemnly put down the small wine glass, “We have been in the factory for so many years, and everyone knows everything about the family. I have been alone for half a lifetime, and now I finally have more. I’ve got a pair of granddaughters! It’s a blessing to be old. When this person is old, I’m not afraid of loneliness. From now on, we want to live together.”
When he said this, the atmosphere at the dinner table changed.
Except for Zeng Gong, several other people looked at him.
The workshop director of the factory said, “Director Yu, where are you going to live?”
Yu Donglai smiled, “Don’t call me the director Yu, that was years ago, just call me Uncle. It must be my granddaughter’s house, where we will move in. They like to live in the same place, so we will all move to this place. The previous house will be unoccupied.”
Li Jinhua also looked surprised, as if she couldn’t expect to hear the news today, “Lao Yu, your house shouldn’t be kept. After all, this is public property. It’s not good to always occupy it, and it’s a source of complaint.”
“This will definitely not be kept. After all, I have lived for decades, and now that I moved out, I can’t always occupy the public property.”
Hearing this, except for Director Zhu who was brought by Xu Nannan, everyone’s eyes became a little hot.
Lao Yu used to be the deputy director of the factory. Although he has retired for many years, when the house was allocated, it was actually based on the rank of the cadre. The house is two small rooms, and the location is good.
The others didn’t react, so Li Jinhua hurriedly said, “Old Yu, how many years have our family been in friendship? You also know the difficulties of our family, this house…”
“Sister Li, I’m also someone who have difficulties, but does your family have difficulties?”
Said the director of the factory workshop.
“That’s right, there are many people who are in difficulty, so you can’t just think about yourself.” Old Liu who manages the warehouse in the factory said.
Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Yu Donglai knocked on the table, “What are you arguing about? Please come to dinner and see our granddaughter, this is not a place for you to quarrel. This house matter… I’m not ready to take care of it. I’m retired and I don’t want to take care of things anymore. I respect the factory’s decision.”
Now everyone can’t sit still. They ate the dumplings in the bowl in a hurry, greeted Yu Donglai, and went out one after another, but Li Jinhua didn’t care about eating, and ran away holding her grandson.
On the way, the three-year-old grandson patted her on the shoulder for food.
Li Jinhua cursed, “What do you want to eat? When your new stepmother walks in, you can eat whatever you want!” Now the world is big and the house is the biggest thing.
Everyone left, only Director Zhu and Zeng Gong sat in their seats.
Yu Donglai smiled, “Yes, it’s quiet now.”
Grandma Yu also laughed, “I still have food and I haven’t had time to serve it. I can’t sit still.” Then she got up and went to serve the food.
Director Zhu glanced at Wei Guobing, and the two of them could see that the doorway had opened. Come on, today this is not just a meal, this is what the old couple gave people to eat.
It’s so sophisticated.
Those people just guessed that they were all staring at the house, and now the goal has been shifted with one meal. Isn’t it quiet now?
Grandma Yu came out with pork stewed noodles.
There is a lot of meat.
“Eat, eat, don’t be polite. You are not outsiders.” Grandma Yu greeted everyone for dinner.
Wei Guobing followed Yu Donglai to touch the cup, and took a sip of wine with a smile.
And they clinked the cup with the Guardian soldier. Wei Guobing didn’t think much about it, and they drank a little wine together.
On the contrary, Grandma Yu pulled Director Zhu and Zhu Fang and kept saying thankful words. Speaking of the two people who took care of Xu Nannan a lot before, in the future, this love will be remembered by the family.
Director Zhu smiled heartily, “Oh madam, not only do you like these two children, we also like them. If it weren’t for the number of children in the family, I would have taken them home early. Helping them is also voluntary, so don’t you worry about it.”
Grandma Yu smiled, “Listening to you, I think there are so many good people like this in this world.”
After dinner, Director Zhu and the others are going back to the Mine. It was also dark and there were not many street lights, so they had to go back as soon as possible.
After going out, the three people walked on the road. Director Zhu thought of the two elders in Yu’s family, and said to Wei Guobing, “It is better than bad for the two sisters to come to this household.”
They were also worried that Xu Nannan would have to bear two elderly people in the future, which would be a drag. It doesn’t seem to be the same now.
Wei Guobing nodded thoughtfully, “They should be somewhat capable, otherwise the two lonely elderly people would not be able to guard two good houses.”
“By the way, when I talk about this, I remember.” Director Zhu suddenly slapped her hands, making Zhu Fang shiver with fright. “Aunty, what are you thinking of? Just say it directly, don’t be scary.”
“Don’t interrupt.” Director Zhu doesn’t care about her niece now, squinting her eyes, she said, “This is something that happened many years ago. It was said that a couple had alarmed the army and the country government in order to protect the house. Anyway. The trouble is quite big. I think it’s like the grandma of the Yu family.”
The Guardian nodded, “I think it’s quite possible.”
Zhu Fang listened to the cloud in the mist, “Aunty, is this a good thing or a bad thing?”
“What do you mean?” Director Zhu smiled.
Don’t look at the usual things, sometimes it’s better to encounter something, and some relationships are better than nothing.
