Tu Manman asked, "Is there something you need from Xiuxiu?"
The person in the reception room pointed outside and said, "Comrade Xiao Su's friend is here to see her. She's a lesbian named Wen Tang."
"Oh, I know Xiuxiu is there. I'll go talk to her."
"Okay then. Thank you for your help, Comrade Xiao Tu."
Tu Manman smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, just something that comes to mind."
After the other person left, Tu Manman didn't go to look for Su Xiuxiu at all. She was covered in sweat and sticky stains, so she went to take a shower first.
The person from the communication room came out and said to Wen Tang, "I've already told Comrade Xiao Su, please wait a moment!"
Wen Tang nodded and found a shady place to stand.
Standing outside, the shade beneath his feet gradually diminished. Even if he moved a little, the sun would still burn his skin. Wen Tang braved the sun and went to the reception room again. "Hello, comrade, could you please call Comrade Su Xiuxiu for me again?"
It was a hot day and the other party didn't want to run back and forth. He didn't feel hot sitting in the message room, enjoying the fan and drinking tea, feeling very comfortable.
Spitting out a mouthful of tea leaves, the other party said, "I guess there's something wrong. Please wait a moment!"
Wen Tang looked at the sun above his head and decided not to wait any longer.
It’s too sunny.
Then she placed the fruits and the clean handkerchiefs in the reception room. "I have something else to do, so I won't wait any longer. Could you please help pass these things to Xiuxiu?"
"Okay, leave it there. I'll give it to her when I see her."
Wen Tang nodded, put down his things and left.
Su Xiuxiu saw the thing when she was getting off work in the evening.
She was still a little confused when the master in the message room called her over.
The other party said that it was her friend who came to deliver something to her. Su Xiuxiu was curious about which friend came to see her without even showing up.
When she saw the handkerchief, she knew.
The messenger handed her the item and told her, "Your friend waited for you here for a while this morning, but it was too hot, so she left before you showed up."
Su Xiuxiu clenched her handkerchief and said unhappily, "My friend came to see me, why didn't you tell me?"
The master in the reception room was unhappy, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I'll go in and find you."
"Then I ran into that girl you played with every day, whose last name was Tu. I told her about it, and she said she was just passing on a message for me!"
"If you don't believe me, let's go confront her," the master was also very unconvinced.
"Tu Manman?"
"Yes, that's her."
As they were talking, Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing were also walking out hand in hand.
The master in the message room immediately popped his head out and called out to Tu Manman, "Comrade Xiao Tu, Comrade Xiao Tu..."
Tu Manman heard the voice and looked over to see Su Xiuxiu standing outside the communication room. She immediately thought of what happened in the morning.
Thinking of what happened in the morning, Tu Manman gripped Zhang Qingqing's arm a little tighter.
Zhang Qingqing felt a little pain and looked up at her.
Tu Manman regained her composure, let go of her hand, and walked towards the message room.
Zhang Qingqing also followed her.
Tu Manman walked closer, and the receptionist asked, "Comrade Tu, tell me, this morning, Comrade Su's friend came to see her. Did I go and tell her, and then she didn't come out?"
Su Xiuxiu stared at Tu Manman intently.
Tu Manman avoided the gaze.
The master in the message room looked anxious and said, "Comrade Xiao Tu, please say something!"
"I happened to meet you when I went to look for Comrade Xiao Su. It was you who said that you knew where Comrade Xiao Su was and would help me pass on the message!" The master in the message room saw that she looked around and refused to speak, and was afraid that she would shirk responsibility at this time.
Tu Manman looked at the master in the message room, then at Su Xiuxiu who was looking at her coldly. She held her head with her hands and looked apologetic. "Xiuxiu, I'm sorry," she said and was about to grab Su Xiuxiu's hands, but Su Xiuxiu avoided her with great repulsion.
Tu Manman withdrew her hand awkwardly and continued to apologize, "This matter, this matter I...I forgot about it," she lowered her head in shame.
"I'm sorry!" she apologized again.
Before Su Xiuxiu could say anything, Zhang Qingqing quickly grabbed Tu Manman's arm and comforted her, "You didn't do it on purpose. How can you be blamed for this?"
After she finished speaking, Su Xiuxiu didn't say anything. She spoke to Su Xiuxiu again, "Xiuxiu, it's not Manman's fault. She didn't do it on purpose."
Su Xiuxiu didn't want to talk to either of them. She broke off a banana from the fruit Wen Tang bought and gave it to the master in the message room. She said "thank you," picked up the things and left.
The man in the message room felt embarrassed holding the banana, so he stuck his head out of the window and shouted, "Thank you!"
Then he slammed the window shut and lay back down on the chair.
Tu Manman stood outside the window with a very bad look on her face.
That’s right, she deliberately didn’t tell Su Xiuxiu that Wen Tang came to see her.
It was to deliberately let Wen Tang miss the target.
Why?
Why did the interpersonal relationships she worked so hard to build suddenly become just between the two of them?
They are both so nice to each other, aren't they just slapping themselves in the face?
Tu Manman thought about it and felt better.
She didn't believe that Su Xiuxiu's "deliberate" absence would allow her and Wen Tang to be friends.
If no one wants to be friends with Su Xiuxiu by then, won’t Su Xiuxiu come back and be friends with me?
But Tu Manman didn't expect that Su Xiuxiu valued Wen Tang, her new friend, so much. Su Xiuxiu took a leave the next day and came to the military family compound with her things.
Just like last time, she said she was looking for Captain Gu’s family.
The communicator looked up at her and it was obvious that he still remembered her.
"What's your name?"
Su Xiuxiu noticed the other party's scrutiny and quickly introduced herself, "Su Xiuxiu, I work in the Municipal Art Troupe."
"Wait a moment."
Soon someone came and took Su Xiuxiu to find Wen Tang.
Wen Tang is busy making lipstick in the house!
She was bored staying here, so she decided to start working on new business.
It is definitely not enough to just sell soap. Even if we add more varieties in the future, the profit will be limited.
If you want to become bigger and stronger, you must develop in multiple areas.
This year, it’s just a shortage of resources, not that people don’t like beauty.
So now that the soap is made, we can also study the lipstick.
When I have the conditions in the future, I will prepare all the bare face cream, toner, and foundation.
Grow bigger and stronger, and continue to be brilliant.
Wen Tang was pounding comfrey in a stone mortar when someone knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock, is my sister-in-law home?" someone shouted outside.
When Wen Tang went to open the door, he couldn't help thinking, if this were a yandere novel, would the next sentence be "Sister-in-law, I am my brother?"
Thinking of this, Wen Tang was very happy.
She grinned and opened the door.
There was an orderly standing outside the door, and behind him stood Su Xiuxiu.
What caught Su Xiuxiu's eyes was Wen Tang grinning.
Su Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Wen Tang would be angry with her.
The orderly saw the door open and said, "Sister-in-law, this comrade said he is your friend."
Wen Tang nodded immediately, "Yes, he's my friend, thank you!"
