Chapter 254
Ye Fuyue gave a thumbs up: "Director Chen and the organizers did the right thing."
"Yes!" Yu Wanying said, "For example, when we in the Publicity Department knew we were going to the Bamboo Fair, we were afraid of catching a cold. We were afraid that if we did, we would be in a bad mood and miss things."
Ye Fuyue nodded in sympathy.
She wasn't as nervous as Yu Wanying and the others. But she thought about the Gaokao (National College Entrance Examination) decades later. To achieve good scores, students were incredibly nervous, fearing a cold or any unexpected situation that might affect their performance.
Suddenly, someone stopped beside Ye Fuyue out of nowhere, scaring her a little.
Ye Fuyue looked up at the person standing next to her in confusion, and recognized that the man in front of her was the one who had been secretly looking at her just now and hurriedly buried his head in pretending to eat when she discovered him.
"Are you Comrade Ye Fuyue?" the gay man asked excitedly, unable to control his voice.
Ye Fuyue became more and more confused: "I am. Do you know me?"
The man excitedly wanted to shake hands with Ye Fuyue, but just as he was about to extend his hand, he was afraid that it would be inappropriate, so he pulled his hand back.
"I saw your picture in the newspaper. You're amazing! You designed such beautiful furniture and sold it to foreigners. You've revived our factory!"
Ye Fuyue: "..."
Newspaper? She was in the newspaper? How come she didn't know?
The man finished speaking excitedly, nodded towards Ye Fuyue with admiration, and left.
Two more lesbians came over to Ye Fuyue, holding hands with each other. They were the two lesbians who were looking at her and whispering just now.
"Are you Comrade Ye?" one of the female comrades asked with a smile on her face.
Ye Fuyue was still in a daze: "Uh, I'm Ye Fuyue."
"You are so awesome! Our factory is getting better and better thanks to you!" another female comrade said excitedly.
After they finished speaking, they smiled at Ye Fuyue with admiration on their faces and left.
Afterwards, many people came to Ye Fuyue to greet her, praising her for being so great and for saving the Xiangyang Furniture Factory. This made Ye Fuyue confused and embarrassed. She was praised by everyone as the savior of the Xiangyang Furniture Factory.
After being forced to open the business and deal with these workers, Ye Fuyue was finally able to take a breath and eat.
Wu Qiaoer and Yu Wanying both looked at her with a smile.
"You've become a celebrity in the factory." Wu Qiaoer said with a smile.
"How do they all know me? And what about the newspaper that the man mentioned at the beginning?" Ye Fuyue asked.
"He's talking about our factory's internal newspaper," Yu Wanying explained. "We publish an internal newspaper roughly every month. It's mainly used to update workers on various aspects of the factory and highlight outstanding workers. It's both a way to help them understand their own factory and to motivate them. After the Bamboo Fair, our factory published a newspaper detailing our brilliant achievements at the fair, and featured you in particular! There's even a photo of you interacting with foreigners in the newspaper."
"I've seen it!" Wu Qiao'er covered her mouth with her hands and laughed: "It looks like Fu Yue is quite similar."
Wu Qiao'er had never known Ye Fuyue knew English, after all, the original owner didn't. Later, Ye Fuyue explained to her that she had just learned a few words at the last minute to get by.
Ye Fuyue was in a daze while eating the meal. Unexpectedly, she also experienced the feeling of being a celebrity.
In the evening, after Shen Yao came back, Ye Fuyue told Shen Yao about this.
Shen Yao teased with a clear smile: "My wife has become a celebrity."
"It's not easy to be a celebrity. You can't even have a quiet meal." Ye Fuyue sighed and shook her head in a pretentious manner.
Haohao and Ranran, who were crawling on the bed, seemed to understand what their parents said and shouted to Ye Fuyue: "Mom - Mom -"
Although the pronunciation is not clear yet, the voice is soft and cute - the two children have just learned to call mom and dad recently, and they always like to shout "Dad -" and "Mom -" whenever they have time, which makes Shen Yao and Ye Fuyue's hearts melt.
"You also think mom is awesome?" Ye Fuyue teased Haohao and Ranran.
The two little kids didn't understand, but their eyes sparkled as they repeated consciously or unconsciously: "Mom—Mom—"
Ye Fuyue was so happy that she sighed in her heart again: She is so good at giving birth. She gave birth to two such cute little babies!
She clearly kissed Haohao and Ranran on the face, making the two little kids giggle.
Shen Yao was watching from the side, with a smile on his face.
Suddenly, there were quarrels and screams in the courtyard.
Ye Fuyue listened for a few seconds with her ears perked up, but couldn't make out anything. She asked Chen Yao, "Whose family is quarreling again?"
"I don't know." Shen Yao shook his head.
He never cared about the gossip in the slum, so asking him was pointless.
Ye Fuyue opened the door a little, hoping to hear more clearly.
"This voice doesn't look familiar. It's neither from the Yao family nor the Wu family."
In Ye Fuyue's opinion, these two families, along with the Liang family, were the three most quarrelsome families in the compound. But the noise now clearly didn't come from these three families.
Chen Guifeng also came out of her room, with the same gossipy expression on her face as Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue seemed to have found an ally, and asked Chen Guifeng excitedly, "Mom, did you hear who's arguing?"
"It sounds a bit like Zhao Yuan's voice to me," said Chen Guifeng.
"Zhao Yuan?" Ye Fuyue became more interested.
At this hour, it was almost dark. What was Zhao Yuan arguing about? Who was he arguing with?
"I'll go and take a look. Do you want to go?" Chen Guifeng asked.
"Go." Ye Fuyue nodded without hesitation.
After handing Haohao and Ranran over to Chen Yao, Ye Fuyue and Chen Guifeng went out to watch the fun.
Before they had walked far, they saw a lot of people gathered in front of Aunt Donghong's house. They were all spectators like Ye Fuyue and Chen Guifeng.
Ye Fuyue and Chen Guifeng squeezed in and saw Zhao Yuan and Miao Xiaomei arguing.
"I didn't steal anything from your house, don't accuse me! I just picked it up and took a look." Zhao Yuan said nervously.
"I saw you were about to put the tickets in your pocket. Besides, every household has these meat and sugar tickets. Why would you pick them up and look at them?" Miao Xiaomei said.
Zhao Yuan blushed, glancing at the growing crowd of onlookers from the corner of his eye. He defended himself, "I really just wanted to take a look. I didn't mean to put the ticket in my pocket."
Aunt Donghong, who was originally taking a walk outside, rushed over, as did Duan's mother and Duan Dawei.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Aunt Donghong looked at her daughter-in-law, then looked at Zhao Yuan whose face was flushed, and asked.
