Chapter 36 Being Invited

When Shi Tingyu went to work the next day, she brought candies with her. There were only six people in the office, including her, and Shi Tingyu gave two to each person.

It was not that she was unwilling to give more, but candies were expensive now, and it was generous to give one or two to others.

Sure enough, after Shi Tingyu gave candies, everyone's attitude towards her became better.

At this time, Liu Xiaohong wanted to go to the toilet, and seeing Shi Tingyu bored in her seat, she pulled her to go together.

Shi Tingyu instantly felt like she was back to her childhood and went to the toilet with her friends.

She was not a very enthusiastic person, but she would not say cold words when others treated her warmly.

Liu Xiaohong was relieved to see her like this.

Liu Xiaohong is the daughter-in-law of the third battalion commander Chen Qiang. She is 31 years old this year. She has a daughter named Chen Yue, who is 9 years old this year and is in the second grade. She

is also a student in the class where Shi Tingyu had the first lesson yesterday. Her painting is very good and she received a compliment from Shi Tingyu.

When the little girl got out of school yesterday, she went home happily and told her parents about Teacher Shi, and said that Teacher Shi would be her favorite teacher in the future.

Chen Qiang was not surprised at all. He had met Shi Tingyu when he went to Lu Weiguo for dinner last time. She was a person who made people feel good when she smiled, so it was normal for the child to like her.

It was precisely because of this reason that Liu Xiaohong became better friends with Shi Tingyu.

Of course, White Rabbit Milk Candy also contributed.

Looking at Shi Tingyu's beautiful face when she wasn't smiling, Liu Xiaohong couldn't help but say, "When I first met you, I was worried that you wouldn't be easy to get along with."

Shi Tingyu was a little surprised. Although she didn't say she liked to socialize with people, she didn't easily get into trouble with people.

Seeing her surprise, Liu Xiaohong lowered her voice and said, "I heard about you from Aunt Lu. She said you were arrogant and looked down on people."

Liu Xiaohong didn't feel any psychological burden about betraying Aunt Lu.

Her family's Chen Qiang and Lu Wenbin were partners, and they often visited each other on weekdays, so they were naturally closer to Su Qiaoyue, otherwise the school wouldn't have asked her to substitute for them.

Su Qiaoyue disliked her mother-in-law, and Liu Xiaohong, who often interacted with Su Qiaoyue, naturally couldn't stand Aunt Lu's behavior.

Shi Tingyu then realized that since he rejected Aunt Lu last time, she actually said bad things about him in front of others.

Seeing that she looked a little unhappy, Liu Xiaohong hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Aunt Lu is just a little bit fond of taking advantage of others, and everyone knows her character, and few people believe her." Shi

Tingyu thought to himself, that's not necessarily true.

People are gossiping now, who cares what the truth is, as long as there is something to talk about.

Liu Xiaohong didn't continue on this topic, but asked about the Lu family's full moon wine party.

"Did the Lu family invite you and Xiao Lu to the full-month banquet?"

Shi Tingyu didn't hear Lu Weiguo mention it.

"Probably not. I had to go to work and I had never cooked before, so I refused Aunt Lu's request to cook. I guess Aunt Lu got angry."

Liu Xiaohong didn't know there was such a thing. When she first heard Aunt Lu talk about Shi Tingyu, she said that Shi Tingyu was lazy and didn't help with any small tasks.

She was also wondering at the time, how could the wife of a battalion commander and Aunt Lu, who had nothing to do with each other, get together? It turned out that this was the crux of the matter.

Seeing Liu Xiaohong's sudden realization, Shi Tingyu was satisfied.

You can't just accept what the other party says. She has to explain a little. It doesn't matter whether Liu Xiaohong will spread the news or not. As long as the people around her know the truth, they won't be prejudiced against her because of rumors in the future.

Shi Tingyu originally thought that the Lu family would definitely not invite them.

Who would have thought that when they were having dinner that night, Lu Weiguo said that Lu Wenbin invited them to attend his son's full moon banquet.

It's not popular to be extravagant now, so they simply set up a table.

Originally, they didn't think of inviting Shi Tingyu. Nowadays, no one has enough food, and they tacitly accept that family members will not be invited when they invite guests.

The reason why he invited Shi Tingyu this time was just because his mother was not thoughtful last time, and he wanted to treat them to a meal to ease the relationship.

This is how people try to ease the relationship now.

If two families don't interact, they can resume interaction by asking someone to help them or sending an invitation to the other party.

If the other party comes, the two families can exchange greetings as usual.

Lu Weiguo asked, "Do you want to go?"

Although he thought it was not good to make the relationship between comrades too stiff, if his wife didn't want to go, he wouldn't force her. He would just go there to save face.

Besides, Lu Wenbin was not an unreasonable person, otherwise he wouldn't have invited the couple to a drink.

Shi Tingyu thought about it and agreed.

Because her family was demoted, she felt that she was a burden to Lu Weiguo. She hoped to help him maintain a good comradeship within her ability.

The full-month banquet for the Lu family child was held on the second night.

When Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo went there, Liu Xiaohong had already arrived.

She saw Shi Tingyu coming and waved to her.

Shi Tingyu said something to Lu Weiguo and went to talk to Liu Xiaohong. After

asking Liu Xiaohong, I learned that the chef was not invited to prepare the meal for today's full-month banquet.

The dishes were prepared by Aunt Lu and Lu Wenchan.

Liu Xiaohong came here as a family member because of her relationship with Su Qiaoyue.

After talking for a while, Shi Tingyu suggested going to see the child.

Liu Xiaohong took her to Su Qiaoyue's room.

Shi Tingyu gave the child a red envelope of two yuan.

It was not that she wanted to ridicule Aunt Lu by giving this amount, but the other battalion commanders all paid this amount at this time, and their family could not be treated specially.

Su Qiaoyue was stunned when she saw Shi Tingyu.

She claimed to be the most beautiful girl in her family and was very confident in her appearance. She had heard of Shi Tingyu's reputation and thought that no matter how beautiful she was, she would be about the same as herself at most. But when she saw her in person, she realized how wrong she was.

Putting aside her appearance, which is far superior to hers, her temperament alone is enough to make people look sideways.

An ordinary family really can't raise such a person.

No matter how much she thought in her heart, no matter how shocked she was after seeing the person, Su Qiaoyue's face remained expressionless. Shi

Tingyu also exchanged pleasantries with the other party.

It was not until the outside shouted that the dinner was about to start that Shi Tingyu and the others stood up.

Su Qiaoyue looked at Shi Tingyu and said apologetically: "Comrade Shi, my mother-in-law did something unkind a few days ago. Please don't take it to heart. Binzi and I have talked to her about it."

"It doesn't matter." At this point, everyone wanted to save face, so they didn't say anything to refuse to step down.

Su Qiaoyue seemed to be relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, you guys must be hungry, eat more today."
