Chapter 340 Package
In the evening, Lu Weiguo fulfilled his promise to his son and took Shen Shen out for a bike ride.
There was a row of tall poplar trees planted on the side of the main road of the family compound. Shen Shen rode on the small bike and moved forward slowly.
Basically, for every step Lu Weiguo took, he would ride for a while, which made Lu Weiguo laugh so much that he had to slow down to match Shen Shen's speed.
At this time, the family compound was bustling. The heat of noon had receded, and the children on summer vacation also came out to have fun.
Shen Shen's appearance attracted everyone's attention.
The small colorful bicycle became the coolest existence among the children in the compound.
After a while, a group of children followed Shen Shen's buttocks.
Because Lu Weiguo was beside them, none of them dared to ask if they wanted to play for a while.
Lu Weiguo didn't say anything when he saw it.
This bicycle was custom-made by his father-in-law and his family with great effort. It was also a birthday present for the child. Whether to let other children play with it should be decided by Shen Shen himself.
Don't look at him as a child, he knows everything now.
Shen Shen now likes this little bicycle very much and doesn't want to stop for a moment. Naturally, he doesn't want to let other children play with it.
In this way, they played until it was almost dark, and Shen Shen didn't go back.
But when he was going back, he couldn't ride it anymore. In the end, Lu Weiguo carried Shen Shen on his shoulders and carried the bicycle back with one hand.
The children next to him were very jealous when they saw it.
He thought that he could actually help ride the bicycle back, so that Uncle Lu wouldn't have to carry it, which would be so tiring.
But he was too timid to say it.
When they arrived at the door of the house, Lu Weiguo put Shen Shen down because he found that Shen Shen was too high to fit in the door with her sitting on his shoulders.
After the family had dinner, Shen Shen felt a little tired and went to bed early today.
The next morning, Shi Tingyu heard on the radio that there was a package for her, so he hurried to the door to get it. When
he saw the shipping address on the package, he knew it was from his eldest brother.
Thinking that yesterday was Shen Shen's birthday, the things in the package might be gifts for Shen Shen.
Sure enough, after Shi Tingyu took the package home and opened it, he found that it was indeed something for Shen Shen.
There were all kinds of toys in it, and also a few sets of clothes.
She held it in front of Shen Shen and measured it. The size was quite suitable. It was not easy for a single man like him to buy such suitable clothes. There
was also a letter sent with the package.
Shi Tingyu opened the letter and took a look.
In the letter, Shi Muchan talked about himself and Kong Shuhui.
It turned out that after Shi Tingyu left Beijing, Kong Shuhui went to find Shi Muchan and expressed her feelings.
Because she went to Shi Tingyu to ask about Shi Muchan, it was equivalent to revealing that she liked Shi Muchan, and naturally she would not hide it anymore.
Shi Muchan did not agree, but only said that he had already pledged his life to his motherland and did not want to have a love affair.
Kong Shuhui naturally did not believe it. In her opinion, everyone has to get married and have children. Shi Muchan's conditions are so good that he will definitely get married in the future. The saying that he is committed to his motherland and does not have a love affair is just an excuse for him to refuse. Besides,
he only has a younger sister in his family, but no brothers. He is the one who will carry on the family line. How could he not get married?
Finally, she went to her father, Political Commissar Kong, and told him that she liked Shi Muchan. Political Commissar Kong was very happy.
Shi Muchan's conditions were definitely among the best, and he was naturally satisfied. But after hearing the latter part, he felt something was wrong. His daughter was just willing, and his mood suddenly became not so good.
In his opinion, the man had refused, and his daughter was still lingering here, which would inevitably make people look down on her.
But he couldn't stand Kong Shuhui's soft and hard nagging, so he found a free time and told Shi Muchan about Kong Shuhui.
Selfishly, he wanted to fight for his daughter, because Shi Muchan was such an excellent man.
He was a little reluctant to give up such a son-in-law.
But the reality is that Shi Muchan really doesn't want to date or get married, and Kong Shuhui is not someone he would like. Since
the other party has already said this, Political Commissar Kong can only return home disappointed.
Facing his daughter who was full of expectations at home, Political Commissar Kong sighed and told the truth.
Although the truth is unpleasant to hear, he has to let his daughter change her mind. It will not work if she just relies on others. In the end, it will make a joke and ruin his daughter's reputation.
Kong Shuhui is a girl after all. After being rejected like this, even her father's intervention is useless. She has completely given up.
Until Shi Muchan wrote to her, Kong Shuhui never looked for him again.
The two never met by chance in other places again.
Shi Tingyu was relieved when he saw this.
She was just afraid that her brother would meet the kind of person who was persistent and cunning.
With her brother's temper, he might suffer. Fortunately, the Kong family was a reasonable family.
There were too many toys, so Shi Tingyu put away some for Shen Shen first, and gave them to him one by one to play with, so that the child would not take too many toys at once and throw them away after playing with a few.
After Shen Shen's birthday, Shi Tingyu continued to paint his own paintings.
Now the oil painting has begun to take shape.
Mother Lu was shocked every day when she saw it.
She couldn't help thinking that her daughter-in-law really deserved this job.
Shi Tingyu painted this painting until early August, which took nearly a month.
Now he just had to wait for the other party to come and pick up the painting after it was finished.
The time for picking up the painting written in the contract was August 30th.
This was also to get things done before Shi Tingyu went back to school.
Time passed quickly and it was August 30th. Shi Tingyu checked the painting for the last time and waited for the other party to pick it up after confirming that there was no problem.
However, he waited until the evening and no one came.
Shi Tingyu frowned, and always felt that something might have happened in the meantime.
When Lu Weiguo came back, he found that the painting was still there and was a little surprised: "Wife, He Beitong didn't come to pick up the painting today?"
Shi Tingyu nodded.
Mother Lu had been angry about this for a long time. When she heard her son asking about it, she started to talk like a machine gun: "How can this person be so dishonest? Our Xiaoyu worked so hard for so long to finish the painting, and now he just said he wouldn't come. What kind of person is he!"
Shi Tingyu saw Mother Lu like this and comforted her: "Mom, maybe something delayed him. After all, we signed a contract. If they break the contract, I can still get 3,000 yuan for free."
Mother Lu was upset, "Is this about 3,000 yuan? Mom is angry about their behavior. They don't take your hard work seriously."
Shi Tingyu said: "It's okay. If they really break the contract, I will take the contract to sue them. Besides, even if they don't want my painting, with my current fame, as long as the word gets out, there will be many people who will buy it. Don't worry, it won't be a big loss."
Seeing Shi Tingyu comforting herself, Lu's mother suddenly thought that Xiaoyu should be the one who felt the most uncomfortable about this matter. Who knows how upset Xiaoyu must be when she said this here, so she forced a smile and patted her hand soothingly.
"You're right. Our paintings are so good that we won't have trouble selling them. We can even get three thousand back from him and make him sick."
"You're right to think so. We don't have much friendship with each other. It's just a normal work handover. Everything will be done according to the contract."
Lu Weiguo thought about the hotel phone number that He Beitong had left, so he asked Shi Tingyu for it and prepared to borrow a phone from the primary school to call and ask.
