Chen Zhaodi didn't want to spend too much time at the Xu family's house; she planned to go home immediately after talking to Huang Qinqin.
Who knew that because they hadn't seen Huang Qinqin for so long, they started chatting and the conversation just wouldn't stop.
It wasn't until Xu Junhui finished get off work and arrived at the department store that Chen Zhaodi and Huang Eryuan realized how much time had passed.
"Oh dear, it's so late, we'll head over now. Your older brother and the others are waiting for us to come back for dinner."
Chen Zhaodi and Huang Eryuan waved to Xu Junhui and the others, then hurriedly left.
Xu Junhui helped Huang Qinqin walk out and casually asked, "Honey, what did your parents want to see you about?"
Huang Qinqin didn't feel tired at first, but as soon as Xu Junhui supported her, she naturally leaned her weight on him.
"My second brother is getting engaged in a few days, and my parents came over to ask me if I wanted to go out for dinner that day."
Huang Qinqin looked at Xu Junhui with a grin: "Junhui, guess what I answered Mom and Dad?"
Xu Junhui didn't even need to guess; how could Huang Qinqin possibly miss such an opportunity where she could both eat and join in the fun?
“I bet you told your parents that you would definitely go, and that you would take me with you.”
"You guessed right! We really are on the same wavelength!"
Huang Qinqin gave Xu Junhui a thumbs up, thinking he had guessed very accurately.
Xu Junhui smiled but didn't say anything. How could he possibly guess correctly? Based on his understanding of his wife, there was no need to guess at all.
......
Xu Weiguo was in a particularly good mood today.
He was happy at the thought of having an extra ten yuan of pocket money every month.
Even the fact that I have to get up at four o'clock every day seems so insignificant when covered by ten yuan.
Just as Xu Weiguo was happily waiting to get off work, he heard someone knocking on the door.
Knock knock knock
"Please come in."
Xu Weiguo returned to his desk, tidying his clothes as he quickly sat down.
When Fang Hui pushed open the door and came in, he was surprised to see Xu Weiguo sitting upright and looking quite respectable: "I didn't realize you were so serious when you were at work."
Upon seeing Fang Hui, Xu Weiguo's upright posture immediately slumped: "Oh, it's you, Director Fang. What brings you here today?"
Xu Weiguo thought it was one of his men coming to see him, which was why he was sitting so upright. But since it was Fang Hui, there was no need to pretend.
"Look at what you're saying, I'm nowhere near as busy as Director Xu. I just missed you and came over to chat with you."
"Come on, stop chatting. Just say what you want to say, don't keep me from getting off work and having dinner."
Xu Weiguo didn't believe Fang Hui's words. He was the kind of person who wouldn't come to the temple without a reason. If he came to see him, it must be because he needed his help.
Fang Hui laughed heartily: "As expected, I couldn't hide it from you. There is indeed a small matter I'd like to ask for your help with."
"Well, my brother sent me some things, and I'd like to trouble Comrade Huang Qinqin to help me take them to Grandpa Song in Huangjia Village."
"There's no rush to send it over. We can ask Comrade Huang Qinqin to take it over whenever she has time."
Xu Weiguo thought Fang Hui wanted to see him for something, but it turned out he just wanted Huang Qinqin to help him bring some things. What was so difficult about that? It was just a small favor.
"Okay, you're lucky. Qinqin is going back to Huangjia Village tomorrow."
"Where are the things I need to take? I can just take them home after get off work."
Seeing that Xu Weiguo didn't refuse and immediately agreed, Fang Hui said gratefully, "Thank you in advance. The things are still at my house. I'll take them to your house after I finish eating later."

Fangjia
Fang Huai sent two large packages home, along with a letter, saying that the large package was for his former boss and the small package was for his family.
When Fang Hui got off work at noon, he took the package home. After reading the letter, he opened the smaller package.
Besides the usual items Fang Huai would send back, this time there were also gifts for the children at home.
Fang Huai sent Fang Xun and Fang Li each a military water bottle because they had been saying they wanted one when Fang Huai went home last time.
Then Fang Huai also sent Fang Chuchu a handbag with embroidered peonies on it, which were so lifelike that they added a touch of classic style to the bag.
The letter stated that he had saved a local Miao person during a mission and gave the bag to him as a token of his gratitude.
The embroidery above is their unique technique, called Miao embroidery.
In the end, what Fang Huai prepared for Nuonuo was a complete set of incredibly gorgeous Miao ethnic costumes.
It was a bright and eye-catching red Miao traditional costume, with every detail showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and unique charm.
Its fabric is soft and smooth, as if you could feel its warmth with just a gentle touch. That bright red hue burns like a flame, radiating passion and vitality.
The most eye-catching items were the silver ornaments on the clothing. They shone with a dazzling light, like stars inlaid on the garments.
Each piece of silver jewelry is meticulously crafted, with different shapes and intricate patterns. Some resemble blooming flowers, some resemble soaring birds, and others resemble mysterious runes, all full of ancient charm.
When Nuonuo saw the outfit, she couldn't wait to put it on. In addition to the clothes, Fang Huai also sent matching silver jewelry, but considering that Nuonuo was still young, the silver jewelry was not as heavy as traditional Miao silver jewelry.
The size of the silver jewelry is just right for Nuonuo to wear, and the details on the silver jewelry are unparalleled, so beautiful that it is hard to look away.
After Nuonuo put on these silver ornaments, not only did they enhance her overall beauty, but they also produced a crisp and melodious sound with her movements, like a beautiful piece of music.
Then look at the exquisite embroidery, which is even more eye-catching. The needle and thread move across the fabric, outlining vivid pictures.
There are vibrant, beautiful flowers, fluttering butterflies, and lively, adorable little birds...
Every stitch and thread embodies the embroiderer's hard work and wisdom, making this Miao ethnic costume a true work of art.
When Nuonuo put on this Miao ethnic costume, the exquisite silver ornaments and Nuonuo's delicate face made the Fang family members dazzled.
Although Nuonuo is only three years old now, it's not hard to imagine how beautiful and charming she will be when she grows up.
Hearing the jingling sounds coming from her body, Nuonuo immediately transformed into a cute, bouncy bunny, excitedly asking everyone, "Grandpa, Grandma~ Is Nuonuo pretty?"
"Uncle, Auntie~ Isn't Nuonuo pretty?"
"Auntie, brother~ isn't Nuonuo pretty?"
