The banquet was booked for the largest table, directly in the largest restaurant nearby, and the whole place was booked out for the day. Relatives from the Lu family and the Bai family would all be there. If the restaurant was not booked out, Lu Siting was afraid that there would not be enough seats.
After confirming the time and place, Lu Siting drove to the post office.
It was almost noon and Bai Wei was preparing to go home for lunch after work. When Lu Siting came over, she was a little surprised.
"There's a pretty good restaurant over there. Let's go eat there today."
Lu Siting took Bai Wei directly to the restaurant.
When Bai Wei got in the car, she asked in confusion: "Why are you here today? Aren't you busy in the army?"
"It's okay. It's okay to come out once in a while."
Lu Siting said, and after Bai Wei finished ordering the dishes, he said, "Do you have anything to do tonight? If not, let's go pick out wedding dresses."
"tonight?"
"Yes, I'll pick you up after you get off work."
Bai Wei said happily: "Sure, I'll wait for you to pick me up."
The wedding is in a month, so they need to choose wedding dresses as soon as possible.
After dinner, Lu Siting sent Bai Wei to the post office again.
Knowing what she was going to do tonight, Bai Wei was very happy the whole afternoon and couldn't suppress a smile.
A colleague who worked at the post office saw this and jokingly said, "Hey, is this some happy news?"
Bai Wei smiled and said generously: "I will treat you to wedding candy next month."
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations!"
The post office is quite busy, with many people coming to write letters every day.
With anticipation, Bai Wei wrote letters with the most sincere heart to ordinary people in need.
However, most of the letters she wrote were about family matters or to report safety.
As evening approached, Bai Wei became even happier. Seeing that it was only half an hour before she got off work, Bai Wei hummed a song and began to tidy up the messy table.
"Hello, I want to write a letter."
A dark-skinned man walked in with a straw hat hanging around his neck. He stared at Bai Wei with his small eyes and said, "You haven't finished get off work yet, have you?"
"Of course not. Just tell me what you want to write."
Bai Wei smiled politely, then sat down, opened her pen, and prepared to write.
The man sat down and began to talk about what he was going to write.
"Wife, is everything okay at home? The weather has been hot recently, so please take care of our farm work. Are mom and dad in good health? You must make sure Xiaobao studies hard. He is either not smart or he just doesn't want to learn."
"The chickens and ducks at home must be fed on time so that they can lay more eggs and sell them to save money for the children's tuition."
The man kept on talking about trivial matters.
"I'm too busy these days, so I won't go back for now. I can earn more money in the county town. You just take care of the family and don't worry about anything else. When I save enough money, I will take you all over."
Although the man has dark skin, this is proof that he works hard to make money.
Moreover, in this letter home, he did not mention his own hard work at all, and only asked about the situation at home.
This man must love his wife and son very much.
After writing this letter, Bai Wei had already constructed in her mind the image of a good man who worked in another place but cared about his wife and children and family.
The letter was written quickly. Bai Wei put a stamp on it and when she came back, she found that the black man had not left yet.
"I have one more letter to write."
Bai Wei was a little confused. Who should she write another letter to? Relatives or friends?
"Okay, go ahead."
Bai Wei glanced at the time. There were still thirteen minutes before the end of get off work. If she wrote one more letter, she should be able to get off work.
"Xiao Tao, how are you doing recently? Are you doing well at home? If you are short of money, please send me a telegram and I will send you money."
"I've been busy lately, so I may not have much time to go back and see you, but you're in my heart."
As the dark-skinned man spoke, Bai Wei's writing movements became slower and slower.
Why does she...sound a little off?
