Chapter 98 New Year Greetings
After greeting everyone, Lin Yuzhu gave red envelopes to the children of the Zhong family. After that, the second brother-in-law talked with Zhao Yanshu in the living room, while the second sister's mother-in-law played with the children.
Lin Yuzhu was taken into the bedroom by her second sister to chat.
"How have you been recently? Are you feeling well?" Lin Yuzhu asked hurriedly as soon as she sat down.
The second sister nodded and said, "It's fine. I didn't have any reaction to my pregnancy this time. My mother-in-law doesn't bother me anymore. She makes delicious food for me every day. I've gained a lot of weight."
Lin Yuzhu felt relieved after hearing this.
"That's good."
The two talked for a few more words before Lin Yuzhu mentioned that she was planning to return to the Lin family this year.
The second sister nodded after hearing this. "It's time for you to go back after you get a formal job. Don't worry, it's okay. Although some neighbors gossiped about you before you didn't go back, I always fought them back. Everyone knows what kind of person mom is. They all think you don't dare to go back because you can't give her what she wants."
Lin Yuzhu laughed when she heard this. She knew about this matter. Because of the two rotten cabbages, Lin Yuzhu and her mother's family had a falling out. When she went back home for the New Year, she deliberately brought a few potatoes back, but was angrily driven out by her mother-in-law.
After she was released, Lin Yuzhu deliberately acted pitifully in front of her neighbors, and using this as an excuse, she did not go back for the next few years.
But she didn't plan to bring much with her this time.
There were just two packs of ordinary biscuits and a large bag of dried vegetables exchanged from the countryside, which looked like a lot.
The second sister was the same. Neither of them brought anything too expensive. They knew that no matter how good the things they brought back were, they would not get anything good. Besides, they were not willing to give all the things they brought back to Lin Jiabao.
After the two of them agreed, they were not in a hurry to go there, so Lin Yuzhu left the child with her second sister to take care of him, and she and Zhao Yanshu went to Director Liu's house to pay New Year's greetings first.
Originally, Lin Yuzhu had been converted to a regular employee, and she was a little reluctant to go, but Zhao Yanshu said that Director Liu was very nice to her and that he didn't ask for any more work this time, which was already quite good, so she still had to do what she had to do.
Lin Yuzhu agreed. These personal interactions are inevitable in the workplace, and one has to do it even if one is reluctant.
In fact, if possible, she would rather go to Sister Wang's house, but Sister Wang had refused before. The unit had also gone to her to wish her a happy new year, but in the end they didn't even get into the gate of the compound where her home was.
From then on, colleagues at work knew what kind of character Sister Wang had and would no longer insist on going.
She was thinking too far ahead. Because giving gifts to leaders was a taboo in that era, she did not take it directly in her hands, but secretly hid the two strips of bacon in her loose and thick clothes.
They soon arrived at Director Liu's house. Although they came together, Zhao Yanshu did not go in, but waited for her outside.
Because we arrived early, Director Liu was having breakfast at home, and he was a little surprised when he saw Lin Yuzhu.
Director Liu has a large family, and more than a dozen people in the family are looking at her.
If it were an ordinary girl, she would probably feel embarrassed to be looked at like this.
But compared to her in her early twenties, Lin Yuzhu, who had experienced so much in her later life, had become thicker-skinned, so she didn't feel embarrassed, and she could say more polite words than she did at this time.
She gave the gift away with a smile, said a few words of thanks, and finally refused Director Liu's invitation to dinner on the grounds that her husband was still waiting for her, and then left.
Oh, before she left, Director Liu’s wife gave her a red envelope. Lin Yuzhu was so old that she didn’t feel comfortable accepting it, but she didn’t succeed in refusing it, so she finally accepted it.
Director Liu’s wife was such a talkative person that she couldn’t even say the word “refuse”. I heard that she worked in the neighborhood office and was specifically responsible for mediating family disputes. She was really amazing!
