"Okay, I get it. Dad, you guys are too easy to talk to, that's why Fang Qing manipulated you. Just wait and see. I will make Fang Qing bring Chenchen back to you to apologize."
Although Lu Jiangrong made a boast, they did not take it to heart.
It’s not a big deal to get the person back to admit his mistake, but it’s better to make sure whether he is okay first.
After agreeing on the next time to talk on the phone, Lu Cong hung up the phone.
Lu Jiangting said to Lu Cong, "Dad, if Chenchen is taken away, we can't touch the support money the organization gives him."
Lu Cong nodded and said, "I know. I'll save it for him and give it to him when he grows up. I said that just now to persuade your sister. Your sister is not a bad person. She is just afraid that you will suffer a loss."
"I understand."
It was busy outside today, and since his son had a rare day off, Lu Cong asked him to help him walk around.
While strolling outside, they accidentally ran into Fang Qing's leader.
The other party stopped him.
"You are the one from Fang Qing's family, right?"
Lu Jiangting: "Excuse me, who are you?"
"My last name is Liu, and I'm Fang Qing's boss. The thing is, Fang Qing has asked for leave to go back to her hometown, and we haven't given her the year-end benefits yet. Wait for me here for a while, my home is upstairs, I'll get it down for you."
"Why……"
Lu Jiangting wanted to say that he would not take Fang Qing's things, but he didn't expect that Director Liu had already trotted away and disappeared after turning the corner.
He could only support Lu Cong and wait here.
Director Liu came back soon with a bag of rice, a bucket of oil, and two handfuls of noodles tucked under his armpits.
"These are all New Year's benefits. Take them."
Lu Jiangting thought to himself that he would take it first and return it to Fang Qing when she came back.
The two of them wanted to divorce and live separately, and he didn't want her things.
However, after receiving the gifts, Lu Jiangting suddenly remembered something and asked casually, "Director Liu, do you still distribute gifts on a regular basis?"
"usually?"
"Yes, when do you usually send things out?"
"Dragon Boat Festival gives out rice dumplings, Mid-Autumn Festival gives out moon cakes, and Chinese New Year gives out these. These are the only festivals that give out gifts in a year. We don't give out gifts on other days."
Lu Jiangting's heart skipped a beat. "No? Haven't you ever given out cigarettes?"
"Give out cigarettes?" Director Liu laughed. "What kind of unit are we in? We're lucky to be able to give out some rice and oil. How could we possibly give out cigarettes? We've never given out cigarettes."
Never had a cigarette?
Lu Jiangting's mind was full of thoughts of never having smoked.
Of course, Lu Cong, who was very careful, also listened to it.
The two of them went back without saying a word and sat there in silence.
After a long silence, Lu Cong said, "Fang Qing bought the cigarettes on purpose. She didn't buy them for your brother-in-law. She just wanted to entice me to smoke them."
Wang Cuilan, who was standing next to her, wiped away her tears and said, "What a vicious woman! She thinks your father is a burden and wishes he would die soon."
Lu Jiangting clenched his fists and his eyes were red as if he was possessed by a demon.
…
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, they called the elderly on both sides.
This year's New Year's celebration was missing Fu Huaiyi and Fu Yatong, brother and sister. The old man felt that it was a lot less fun and said that he would come to see them when he had time.
Ye Lian also talked about family matters, and later mentioned her sister-in-law's parents' home.
According to custom, married daughters have to return to their parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but they have made enemies with their eldest sister-in-law's family. Ye Lian said that they will not be allowed to go back tomorrow. Tomorrow she will take the whole family back to the Ye family to visit her grandmother.
After chatting for a while, Lin Yuyao hung up the phone when she heard a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, it was Yi Yunshuo who came.
He was spending the New Year here alone, and Yi Yunshuo had the best relationship with Fu Huaiyi, so naturally he would come to visit him during the New Year.
"Yi-ge, Xiaolin, I am here to bother you again."
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Don't bother me. I'm glad you came."
"Really? Comrade Kobayashi is the best. I don't think Yoshi-ge looks that happy."
Fu Huaiyi: “…”
"So much nonsense."
Someone knocked on the door again, and Lin Yuyao said, "Sister Song and the others should be here."
Song Qin had a falling out with her family. She didn't go back home to celebrate the New Year, nor did she visit relatives. She just made an appointment to come to Lin Yuyao's house today to celebrate together.
When I opened the door, I saw Song Qin and Ye Xiaotong coming.
Why is Chen Bingzhi following them?
"Happy New Year, Yuyao."
"Let's have fun together, everyone, come back soon. You're here, why are you bringing anything with you?"
Song Qin smiled and said, "It's just a small gift, just a token of my appreciation."
After they came in, Chen Bingzhi followed in and greeted Fu Huaiyi naturally.
They knew each other when they were children, but as they grew up they went their separate ways and pursued their own careers, and gradually became estranged.
There are a lot of overlapping friends, so we can chat a lot.
The three of them were chatting in the living room, while Song Qin and Ye Xiaotong followed Lin Yuyao to the rooftop to get some food.
There is a special vegetable basin on the roof to ensure the freshness of vegetables, and Lin Yuyao also grew some herself.
"Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year, why is Chen Bingzhi still here?"
Song Qin, "I don't know, I came early in the morning."
have no idea?
Lin Yuyao felt strange when she saw her evasive eyes.
Song Qin added, "He said he told his family that he was going out to meet a friend. If he had said he was going to meet your Fu Huaiyi, his family would have definitely agreed."
Oh, are Chen Bingzhi and Fu Huaiyi close friends?
At this time, Ye Xiaotong gently pulled Lin Yuyao, "Yuyao, why is that Yi something staring at me?"
Lin Yuyao: “…” What should she say?
Thinking of what Fu Huaiyi had told her about Yi Yunshuo following up on the story, she suddenly had an idea and said, "Yi Yunshuo is a loyal reader of our magazine and buys every issue. His favorite section is the one you wrote, especially the first issue. He said he wanted to read the sequel."
Ye Xiaotong suddenly realized, "There is no follow-up. I have escaped and that's it. The follow-up is just that I am here. I may not even know what the future holds."
"I thought so too. I guess he might ask you later."
"Ah?" Ye Xiaotong said nervously, "Then how should I reply? There is no follow-up."
Lin Yuyao comforted her and said, "Don't be nervous. He is your reader, so he should be nervous."
Come to think of it, but... she was still very nervous.
Lin Yuyao and the other two came down from upstairs and vaguely heard them talking about Ming Mei or something. When they saw them, the three people on the sofa shut up again.
Lin Yuyao frowned slightly and called Fu Huaiyi to the kitchen.
"What are you talking about?"
"I didn't say anything."
"I heard you guys talking about Mingmei and stuff, but when you saw me coming down you stopped talking."
Fu Huaiyi: “…”
"Oh, it was Chen Bingzhi who said that. After she came to see you last time, I called Grandpa. He told him to handle the problems he caused himself. I don't know what Grandpa did, but I heard that Mingmei was sent abroad by her family again. So he came to Chen Bingzhi and wanted to ask Chen Bingzhi to come to me and ask for a favor so that she can be released."
