Chapter 64 Chapter 64 Going out on field work.
Everyone unanimously chose the option of sleeping in a little longer. Mr. Su wasn't surprised and said with a cheerful smile, "Alright, then you all leave tomorrow morning. I don't care how you get there, but I insist that you all meet at the bride's house by 4:30. Can you do that?"
After everyone's affirmative response, President Su continued, "Also, the team leaders for this field mission are Sister Liu and Afeng. You need to manage the equipment and arrange the work for the people around you. Tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, I'll only have you two for the work report. Everyone needs to work until the wedding luncheon is over and ensure that someone returns the equipment intact. The rest of you can disband and go home to rest. You don't need to report back."
Although they had to get up early in the morning to go to work, they could go home directly after noon, which was equivalent to half a day off. This was a pleasant surprise, and everyone's faces showed some joy. After giving a brief explanation, President Su announced the end of get off work, and then she was the first to leave gracefully in her high heels, without delaying everyone's get off work time.
Sister Liu also greeted Afeng and the others, then called over to Liu Suqin. "Aqin, let's go pick up the wedding dress before we get off work. We can keep an eye on each other while we pack our makeup cases. There's no need to bring too many duplicate tools."
"Okay." Liu Suqin followed her master closely, keeping her eyes wide open and trying hard to learn from him.
Although this was their studio's first attempt, the various procedures were already quite complete. The two of them went to pick up the wedding dresses and costumes, and each step required signature confirmation. Finally, they returned to their workstations carrying the exquisitely packaged, high-end gift boxes. While Liu Suqin was packing her makeup case under Sister Liu's guidance, she worried for her, "The wedding dress gift box is so heavy, how are you going to carry it tomorrow?"
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu sighed. "Yeah, if I only had a makeup case, I could just ride my bike to the bride's house. But with such an expensive wedding dress, I can't afford to be careless. And there's no bus so early, I guess the kid's dad will have to borrow a car to take me there... By the way, how are you going there tomorrow? Is your home far away?"
Liu Suqin smiled and said, "It was my family member who lent me his car to take me there. It just so happened that his good brother just bought a new motorcycle, and he had wanted to borrow it for a while and had already made arrangements with him."
Although they also had a tricycle, they didn't know when they discussed it before that they needed to meet at the bride's house so early. According to Lin Nanjiang's idea, five or six o'clock would be enough, which happened to be the time when they went to the vegetable market to buy goods. So he decided to borrow his good brother's new car to send his wife, and let the other party drive the tricycle to buy goods first, so that neither side would be delayed.
Sister Liu was moved when she heard this and jokingly said, "You two are really in a hurry. You borrowed the car so early?"
"They're so close they could wear the same pants. Just saying hello is enough." Liu Suqin didn't miss the other person's eyes that lit up for a moment, and asked politely, "Sister Liu, if you don't mind, we'll pick you up on the way when we leave tomorrow morning?"
"Will it cause you any trouble?"
Liu Suqin naturally patted her chest and guaranteed that it would not be troublesome at all.
It just so happened that the two of them knew each other's addresses and found that it didn't take too much of a detour to pick up Sister Liu on the way, so the matter was settled. The master and apprentice agreed on the time and place to meet tomorrow, and then went home together after get off work, said goodbye to each other at the door of the photo studio, and went back to their respective homes to find their mothers.
Liu Suqin noticed that Sister Liu's steps became lighter and lighter as she walked back, which showed that she had indeed helped her solve a problem.
This is what is called giving a rose and the fragrance lingers on your hand. Liu Suqin withdrew her gaze with satisfaction and walked briskly towards home.
Her habit is to take the bus in the morning and walk home in the evening unless she finishes work too late.
It was not to save the bus fare, but Liu Suqin really enjoyed the feeling of walking home alone after a day's work. The ordinary scenery on weekdays would become very pleasing to the eye, and even the evening breeze was so gentle. Walking all the way home like this, not to mention curing all the fatigue, but at least it could cure her tense nerves at work, and when she got home she would become her relaxed self again.
However, she did not go straight home today, but went to the store to find Lin Nanjiang.
"Up at four in the morning?" Lin Nanjiang learned the exact schedule, but he didn't complain about getting up early. He looked at her with a look of heartache, "You have to start work so early, you are too hard-working."
Liu Suqin soothed him, "Although we have to gather at the bride's house at around four o'clock, President Su also said that everyone can go home and rest directly after work at around noon. The total time is more than eight hours, the same as a normal working day. Going on such an outing and getting a good meal is really worth it, isn't it?"
The wedding of the bride and groom cost a four-digit amount just for their photo studio, which shows that they are really not short of money. The banquet will definitely include delicious fish, meat, seafood and abalone.
Lin Nanjiang laughed and said, "Wife, if you want to have a good meal, just tell me. I can take you there anytime. Why are you still thinking about eating at someone else's house?"
That being said, when he heard that his wife would be working half a day tomorrow, his frown relaxed unconsciously. He simply urged, "Then don't delay. Go back and eat. Go to bed early today. Don't worry, I'll set the alarm and make sure to wake you up at four o'clock."
Liu Suqin nodded and said, "I came here just to tell you that you need to go to bed early tonight. I won't wait for you anymore. I have to pick up my master tomorrow."
Lin Nanjiang readily agreed, "Of course. Your master always takes care of you. It's not a big deal for us to pick her up on the way."
After finishing her business, Liu Suqin went home with peace of mind. After having dinner at home, she played with the children for a while as usual. However, she did not watch TV series today. She washed up and went to bed early, and had a good night's sleep.
As a professional early riser, Lin Nanjiang did not let Liu Suqin down and woke her up from bed on time. The couple hurriedly washed and changed their clothes and were about to go out, but they didn't expect that the lights in the living room were also on. Qian Juxiang was rummaging through the refrigerator. When she heard the noise, she looked up in surprise, "You're done packing so early? I wanted to get you something to eat for the journey..."
Liu Suqin was only surprised for a moment when she saw her mother. She walked to the door without stopping to change her shoes, and hurriedly replied, "No need. The bride will definitely provide breakfast. Mom, you can go back to your room and continue sleeping. Don't worry about us..."
After she finished speaking, she changed her shoes and turned to go downstairs. Lin Nanjiang followed closely behind her, carrying her heavy makeup case in his hands.
Qian Juxiang chased them to the door, only to see the two disappear into the corridor one after the other. She couldn't help but give one last warning, "Nanjiang, ride your bike carefully, and pay attention to safety."
For fear of waking up the neighbors, Qian Juxiang spoke in a low voice. She could vaguely hear her son-in-law's response, but she still stood at the door until the footsteps completely disappeared, then she closed the door and returned to the room.
Liu Suqin, who was downstairs, was already sitting behind Lin Nanjiang. The motorcycle sped out of the community like an arrow. She subconsciously hugged the person in front of her tightly, her face pressed tightly against his broad back.
Liu Suqin didn't expect that the Shenzhen market would be so cold at four in the morning. Fortunately, she wore the simplest T-shirt and jeans today to facilitate moving bricks, and huddled behind Lin Nanjiang to avoid the cold wind, so she shouldn't catch a cold.
She stuck to Lin Nanjiang's back like an octopus, and in a few minutes they arrived near Sister Liu's house. The other party was already waiting on the roadside.
Lin Nanjiang had never seen her before, but she was carrying a large bag with the name of the photo studio printed on it. Lin Nanjiang spotted it from a distance. He parked the car steadily in front of the woman and greeted her warmly, "Is this Sister Liu? I am Suqin's lover."
Liu Suqin also stuck her head out at this time and invited directly, "Sister, come up quickly, I will help you carry the bag."
Before Sister Liu could even exchange a few words of greeting, she was pulled to sit behind Liu Suqin. The wedding bag she was holding only stayed in Liu Suqin's hand for a second before Lin Nanjiang took it and hung it on the front of the car.
The motorcycle continued to speed along the empty road unimpeded. It was only 4:20 when it arrived at the bride's house. The two of them were undoubtedly the first to arrive.
But the filming crew arrived soon after.
The bride's family lived on the first floor of the tube-shaped building. As soon as the three of them arrived, they were immediately grabbed by the enthusiastic bride's mother and her friends. Sister Liu came out as a representative to take charge of the socializing and communication. It was not until the other three colleagues arrived one after another and diverted the attention of the host family that she was able to get away. When she turned around, she saw Lin Nanjiang's back quickly slipping away. She asked Liu Suqin with a smile, "Didn't the bride's mother say she would boil eggs for us? Why did yours run away?"
Liu Suqin also laughed and said, "He won't stay to work. It would be presumptuous to eat his eggs and then leave."
"You ran away so fast! I haven't even had time to thank you properly." Sister Liu glanced at her and teased, "I heard you had a husband and children, but I didn't believe it at all. You look like a little girl."
"Master, do you believe it now?"
Sister Liu stretched out her tone and said, "I half believe it. After all, your face and figure really don't look like you've given birth."
This was a disguised way of praising her youth and beauty. Liu Suqin immediately smiled and said, "Then I have to bring my daughter out to prove it."
"Okay, when can I see it?"
"It's almost time! As soon as I get a permanent job, I'll bring my husband and kids here to take family photos." They'd originally agreed to take family photos after the studio opened, but their schedules were so full that the arrangement kept getting pushed back. Now Liu Suqin has set a deadline; it has to happen after they get a permanent job, and even the knives from the sky won't stop them. "I'll be counting on you, Master, when the time comes."
"Okay." Sister Liu agreed immediately, giving her a meaningful look. "Then if you perform well, maybe you can come take a family photo next month."
Liu Suqin paused for a moment, then her eyes lit up. Does this mean that she might be able to get a permanent position early?
