"Come, come, these are the wedding candies and snacks I brought. Try them to calm your nerves."
"I feel unworthy of all the gifts you've given me, so I can only bring you some candy and snacks," Lin Xiaoxiao explained with a smile.
She hadn't originally intended to make things complicated by inviting everyone in for tea and a chat, but some people's gazes made her uncomfortable, so Lin Xiaoxiao immediately changed her mind about inviting everyone in.
Let this sentiment end here. If we continue chatting and talking about feelings, who knows how it will develop in the end? Some rural women are even more shameless and ignorant than people in Beijing.
She was really afraid they would suddenly blurt out, "You're so good at making phone calls, arranging jobs for your kids is a piece of cake for you. Look, you just accepted my gift..." Just thinking about the scene that might happen made Lin Xiaoxiao's head spin. She decided it was best to just chat for a few minutes at the door and avoid causing any more trouble.
Lin Xiaoxiao not only gave some to the aunties, but also gave the children two extra candies, which made the children very happy.
"Thank you, beautiful lady."
"Pretty older sisters are the best..."
Hearing the children's voices, I, who had originally intended to talk about other aunties, could only turn around and praise and congratulate Lin Xiaoxiao.
Only a few individuals were particularly interested; most people were quite happy to receive the candy and pastries, as these were not ordinary pastries, but rather pastries from the capital city.
Those who took that bite were definitely people who had eaten desserts in the capital.
After a few lighthearted words, most people told Lin Xiaoxiao that she could come back to visit whenever she had time, and that Wangjia Village would always find a way to arrange accommodation for her. Lin Xiaoxiao was touched by their sincere feelings and said a few heartfelt words in return.
After talking for a while, both sides parted ways, satisfied. There was nothing more to say; everyone had to go home and get busy.
In the countryside, as long as you want to work, you'll always have work to do.
After they parted ways, Lin Xiaoxiao took a few bags into the house. As soon as she put them down, she met Lightning's slightly resentful gaze, which seemed to say, "I'm such a well-behaved little animal, yet I scare people and make them take the blame."
Seeing Lightning like this, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately laughed and quickly took out some meat from her spatial storage to comfort the injured little wolf.
......
They said they would come over in the next couple of days to install a phone, and sure enough, the commune sent someone over this afternoon to work on the phone at the village office.
Upon seeing the long cable and the brand-new telephone, everyone who received the news was overjoyed. Even in the coldest weather, they would get up to see how the telephone was installed.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't join in the fun; she spent the whole afternoon with Wang Lijuan communicating with everyone about the design.
Wang Lijuan listened attentively while taking notes of the precautions Lin Xiaoxiao mentioned.
After discussing the design, I personally worked with the pattern makers twice, mainly to demonstrate the key points of communication and to correct their previous pattern-making habits.
Having taught everything that needed to be taught, Wang Lijuan and everyone else were very reluctant to see her go. "You've only been back for two days... the time was too short, and you're already leaving..."
Lin Xiaoxiao responded with a smile: "Hey, everyone, don't be like that. Now that we have a phone, if there's anything you don't understand, you can just call and communicate."
"Everyone is working hard to make money. If you ever come to Beijing, contact me and I'll definitely show you around."
As Lin Xiaoxiao was talking to them, Wang Chunhua came over and called Lin Xiaoxiao, saying that several village officials were looking for her.
Lin Xiaoxiao followed Wang Chunhua to the office. When they arrived, they found that almost all the village officials they knew were sitting there. When they saw Lin Xiaoxiao, they all smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, you're here?"
"Everyone's here today, how come everyone's here?" Lin Xiaoxiao replied with a smile.
Captain Wang first asked Lin Xiaoxiao to sit down, and then gave her a note: "This is the phone number for our Wangjia Village. Remember to keep in touch."
After giving this, the village secretary took out two more things, saying, "These are for you too."
Lin Xiaoxiao: "What is this?"
No one spoke, but let her open it herself. Under their prompting glances, she suspiciously took the items and unfolded them one by one. Lin Xiaoxiao looked closely and saw that it was a banner and a joint commendation from the village officials, as well as household registration documents.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled when she saw the banner, feeling a warmth in her heart. These days, making a banner isn't cheap, and giving one is a sincere expression of gratitude and recognition of the person: "We're all family, there's no need for such a grand gesture."
"This is nothing special. You've only been in Wangjia Village for a short time, and you've already brought in the factory and telephones. You're a great contributor to our Wangjia Village, and it's only right that you receive this banner." This wasn't just to thank Lin Xiaoxiao; they also wanted people in Beijing to know that Lin Xiaoxiao is recognized by everyone and is outstanding, and not someone that anyone can replace.
This was the first time Lin Xiaoxiao had received this item in both her lives, and she found it quite magical, feeling a sense of satisfaction that she didn't know where it came from.
After thanking everyone for their recognition, she carefully put away the banner. Captain Wang then handed an envelope to Lin Xiaoxiao, who took it and saw that it contained several ten-yuan bills.
"Uncle, you've already given us enough banners, why are you doing this?"
Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao wouldn't accept the money, everyone tried to persuade her.
"Because of you, the factory may not have made everyone rich, but as long as the factory exists, our village's development will not be much worse than other villages. This is the reward you deserve."
