Su Man rode a motorcycle back home. Tang Guifen heard the rumbling noise and immediately opened the door.
He looked at her with a smile and took a hot towel to wipe her hands.
"Mannier, why are you so early today? Grandma hasn't cooked yet!"
Su Man pushed the motorcycle into the yard, took the towel, and took out a hot fried pancake from her arms.
"Don't worry, grandma, I bought some fried dough sticks for you to eat first."
Lin Hongxing heard the noise and ran out of the house.
"Sister-in-law, is there a share for me?"
Su Man turned around and handed her a fried pancake.
“It must be.”
Lin Hongxing ate the fried cake while inviting Su Man into the house.
There was a half-finished woolen coat on the bed, and she motioned Su Man to try it on.
The bright red wool coat was particularly fashionable, with a circle of white rabbit fur trimming on the edge, a style that you wouldn't see outside.
Su Man tried it on and found the size was just right.
He turned around again and let Lin Hongxing see it.
"Does my sister-in-law look good in this dress?"
Lin Hongxing nodded repeatedly: "It looks good, especially good-looking."
"Sister-in-law, wear this coat and walk around the factory later."
"If someone asks you where you bought it, just give me a price. I'll make it and you'll sell it."
After selling a few pieces of clothing to Zhao Hualan in town, she tasted the sweetness of success.
It's a pity that she has to go to school now, otherwise she would have to open a clothing store.
When the time comes, she will let her sister-in-law wear the clothes she makes and she will definitely have no worries about business.
Su Man thought that Lin Hongxing had nothing to do during the winter vacation, so she was happy to earn some pocket money.
"Okay, I'll help you promote it later."
At night, Lin Hongxing used the excuse that her brother was away and went to sleep with Su Man with a pillow in her arms.
Just as I was about to go to bed, Lin Ye called.
What he said was naturally some sweet words to please Su Man.
Su Man glanced at Lin Hongxing and felt a little embarrassed.
"Red Star is in my room, please be careful with your words."
When Lin Ye heard this, he immediately asked Su Man to give the phone to Lin Hongxing, and started to speak coldly to him.
"You don't have a room of your own? Why do you insist on sleeping in my and your sister-in-law's room?"
Lin Hongxing stiffened his neck and said indignantly.
"Isn't it because you're not at home and I'm worried that my sister-in-law won't be warm enough to sleep alone?"
"Brother, I am your sister, and my sister-in-law and I are like real sisters. You are more protective of our food than even a dog."
Lin Ye gritted his teeth and gave a final warning.
"I'm giving you a chance. Grab your pillow and go back to your room."
"Otherwise, when I return, I will separate from you and Qiangzi, and you two can go alone."
Why should he let someone else hold his sweet and soft wife?
Even my own sister can’t do it, so don’t even think about it.
Lin Hongxing knew that Lin Ye could do what he said, and looked at Su Man with resentment.
"Sister-in-law, I'm going back to the house."
Su Man held back her laughter and looked at her with some sympathy.
"How about you sleep secretly for one night? Your brother won't know anyway!"
Lin Hongxing shook his head: "No, my brother has a nose like a dog. If he smells me, I'll be in big trouble..."
Before the call was hung up, Lin Ye's angry voice came from the receiver.
"Lin Hongxing, your brother is not deaf yet, get out of here right now."
Lin Hongxing made a face into the phone and sighed at Su Man.
"What a pity, only you, sister-in-law, can tolerate this dog's temper."
Su Man picked up the receiver only after Lin Hongxing returned to the room.
"You too, why are you always arguing with a little girl?"
Lin Ye snorted softly, but his tone was much gentler.
"She's like this even if I'm not polite? If I'm polite, won't she be able to make a nest on my head?"
Su Man chuckled: "But sometimes I envy you guys..."
Although Hongxing and Qiangzi both knew that Lin Ye was not their biological brother, they had been getting along with him for so many years without any barriers between them and were closer to him than a biological brother.
Think about her again, although she has some brothers and sisters, it’s the same as if she didn’t have them.
She originally thought that there was a mother who was always caring about her, but she couldn't find anyone.
Lin Ye also guessed what Su Man was thinking, and he wished he could come over from the other end of the phone to comfort her.
"No news about my mother-in-law yet? I'll help you find out when I get back. I have some acquaintances at the police station..."
Su Man listened to Lin Ye calling her mother-in-law affectionately and made a joke on purpose.
"If my mother doesn't like you, why don't we elope?"
It was originally just a joke, but Lin Ye answered it very seriously.
"She entrusted such a good girl to me, so it's understandable that she's worried."
"Then I will work harder and make her see my strengths so that she can trust me and leave you to me."
"Elopement is irresponsible of you, and it also slaps my mother-in-law in the face."
"Don't worry, your man is not that bad."
"I'll take care of everything, just be my wife."
Su Man felt warm in her heart after hearing this, although this man doesn't usually say sweet words.
But when something really happened, I never got hurt.
——————
As the New Year draws closer, the dance rehearsals in the factory have made no progress at all.
Peng Lan used to be late and leave early every day, but now she comes in one day and takes two days off.
It was obvious that they didn't want to rehearse properly with them. This matter was brought to Zhang Fuhua's attention, and she was very anxious.
I heard that other factories have already rehearsed their dance programs. If this continues, their steel plant will be in big trouble at the party.
She finally found some time to hold a meeting with the dance team, and Peng Lan also arrived in the middle of the meeting.
Zhang Fuhua didn't beat around the bush and asked Peng Lan directly what her opinion was about their steel plant.
Otherwise, why don't you rehearse properly?
Peng Lan folded her hands and looked straight at Su Man.
"I naturally have no problem with the steel mill, but I do have problems with certain people."
"From the very beginning, she didn't take rehearsals seriously, wasting my time and my efforts."
"Director Zhang, I mentioned to you last time that Su Man should be expelled from the dance team."
"You refused, so you delayed us all for so long."
"If you want to keep her, you should find someone else who teaches dance."
"Otherwise, just cancel the show!"
She had her own plans in mind. Her teacher had recently fallen ill, so there was a vacancy at the pastry factory.
If she could postpone the work at the steel plant, she would be able to go to the pastry factory smoothly.
The pastry factory gets bonuses every year, and they also get pastries.
Compared with the steel plant, it is much stronger.
But she couldn't just quit, so she could only put the blame on the steel plant.
Didn't the factory director want to protect Su Man? Then why not keep Su Man and let her go?
Because of Peng Lan's words, the others also started to grumble.
"We've been rehearsing for so long, how can we give up just because of one person? Our time is no longer time?"
"Yeah, I told my family I'd be on the show at the party! How am I supposed to tell them now?"
Everyone didn't blame Peng Lan, but blamed Su Man instead.
Obviously, this is also the effect that Peng Lan wants.
"Director Zhang, you better give me a definite answer today. Will you keep Su Man? Or will the steel plant cancel the program?"
