Chapter 222 Group Activities
The Wang family’s affairs came to an end, and the alley returned to peace.
On the day of getting the final exam results, Huang Ling and Song Ying went to the door to wait for the children to finish school. They made an appointment to take them to a restaurant for dinner and then have some activities after dinner.
Because Huang Ling is particularly good at organizing activities, whether it is a garden party, a picnic or an outing, she always gives them surprises, so the children are particularly looking forward to it.
Students started to come out, and judging by their height, the junior high students came first.
"If Dongzhe doesn't do well in the exam, don't scold him later!" Huang Ling instructed.
"I will never scold him."
"Um."
"I'll beat him to death!"
“…”
Huang Ling stared at Song Ying.
"Okay, okay, you are the real mother." Song Ying nodded.
After a while, the two saw Dongzhe and Pengfei at a glance.
Why did you see it right away?
Because these two children were jumping around.
Xiaoting was about ten steps away from them, with a look of disgust on her face.
"You did well in the exam." Huang Ling and Song Ying said in unison.
"Mom, Auntie! Quick, guess which one I am," Dongzhe said excitedly.
"Well, should we say it in forward order or backward order?" Huang Ling joked.
"Tsk, isn't that a slap in your face? It's all in vain that I've been tutoring you for so long!" Dongzhe looked very proud.
"Then let me infer. There are 48 people in the class, and half of them are here. Since you are so excited, we have to count a few more places. I guess... 20." Huang Ling reasoned.
Dongzhe and Pengfei looked at each other in surprise, then nodded heavily.
"Ahahahaha! Lin Dongzhe! You can do it! You finally made it into the top 20!!!" Song Ying was very happy and clapped Dongzhe a few times.
"Where is Pengfei?" Huang Ling asked.
"I'm a little behind Dongzhe, twenty-seven." Pengfei touched his head.
"Not bad, not bad. You have moved up six places. Keep up the good work." Huang Ling praised.
"Yes, I understand, Aunt Huang."
Compared with Xiaoting and Dongzhe, Pengfei does have more difficulty in studying, but compared with the original drama, it is much better. After all, he came to Suzhou to study in the fourth grade of elementary school and has the support of Huang Ling.
"Wait a minute, brothers, the high school department hasn't finished school yet." Huang Ling hugged Xiaoting.
"Sister Ling, why didn't you ask Xiaoting what place she got in the exam?" Song Ying asked in surprise.
"You got the first place in the exam, why didn't you tell Aunt Huang?" Dongzhe also questioned Xiaoting.
"Uh..." Huang Ling blinked.
"I understand, Aunt, you didn't just guess, you already knew what place I ranked in the exam, right?" Dongzhe finally understood.
"I came to school yesterday... to help the teacher with something, and then I took a look at the report card." Huang Ling cleared up the confusion of several people.
"Sister Ling!" Song Ying pushed Huang Ling, "How could you bear not to tell me?"
"Then I have to let Dongzhe give you a surprise! Tell me if you are surprised or not."
“It seems so, hahaha!”
Everyone laughed together, and Tunan and Hongbin ran towards them.
Huang Ling asked Tuanan to invite Hongbin to have lunch as well. She knew that Zhu Xiuyu was quite nice to the two children.
Zhu Xiu Yu was also sensible and tried not to let Hong Bin participate in the gatherings here, for fear that Huang Ling and the others would feel uncomfortable.
This time, Tuanan told her that it was Huang Ling who asked for it, and Zhu Xiuyu finally agreed.
Huang Ling and Song Ying took their five children out for a big meal.
When I got there, I saw that it was Kaiming Western Restaurant on Guanqian Street.
Except for Xiaoting, all the other children were eating there for the first time and were obviously very excited.
Huang Ling ordered potato salad, borscht, stir-fried shrimps, red-painted beef, fried chicken chops, chicken legs, pork chops, and sandwiches for everyone.
These fresh dishes made the children's mouths water and they ate so much that they had to hold on to the wall.
After dinner, Huang Ling said to Hongbin, "Hongbin, you should go back first! Tell your parents that Tunan and Pengfei will be back later."
"Mom, Hongbin won't participate in our activities?" Tuanan felt a little embarrassed because he had originally said that there would be activities after dinner.
"He...is not suitable." Huang Ling stammered.
"Aunties, I'll go back first. Thank you. The food here is so delicious!" Hongbin thanked them.
Huang Ling saw the other four children looking at her eagerly.
Finally, Hongbin also came to participate in the event.
Activity location: Song Huang’s courtyard in the alley.
Activity content: Clean up the backyard.
Activity equipment: rain boots, gloves, apron.
Activity reward: Already in my stomach.
Except for Hongbin, the other four children looked at Huang Ling with a look of despair.
"Auntie~~~~! This is the activity you mentioned!" Dongzhe was originally thinking about what fun things to do, but unexpectedly, he ended up playing in his own backyard.
Huang Ling smirked, "It's time for you to experience what it's like to be tricked. I originally thought Hongbin was a guest, so it would be difficult to let him participate in the event, but you insisted on dragging him along."
"Auntie Huang, it's okay. I have the strength and I can do these jobs." Hongbin said with a simple smile.
"Let's do it! Tunan, you plan the division of labor, and Xiaoting will take care of the logistics." Huang Ling raised her chin.
"Okay." Tunan responded and went to the site for inspection first.
Just as the few of them were about to meet, Zhou Huaiyi and Lin Wufeng, who had gone to the parts factory for the year-end meeting, also came back.
Huang Ling opened the window and said to Tunan, "Tunan, add two more adult laborers."
Tunan shouted, "Okay!"
Zhou Huaiyi waved to Huang Ling, indicating her to come to the front room.
"What's wrong? The parts factory needs to discuss something."
Zhou Huaiyi shook his head, his eyes full of smiles, and whispered, "I bought a car."
Huang Ling was stunned at first, then she was ecstatic.
She grabbed Zhou Huaiyi's hand and said, "Really!"
Zhou Huaiyi nodded and said, "We bought an old truck in the town's name, and it will be delivered after the New Year. We haven't got a car yet."
"Okay, it's okay, as long as we have a car! A truck is also a car." She excitedly held Zhou Huaiyi's hand.
"What's the matter with this backyard? Did the factory give it to us?" Zhou Huaiyi looked past her at the backyard.
Huang Ling nodded proudly.
"I didn't give anyone room to move, yet you still want a piece of land."
"This is the compensation the factory gave our families for mental damage," Huang Ling pointed at Lin Gong and then at herself. "You two take a break. We don't need you. There are so many of us, so we can handle it."
Looking at her back, Lin Gong sighed, "It has to be Sister Ling."
The two of them packed up and prepared to go help, but when they saw the scene, they almost died of laughter.
Comrade Lin Dongzhe dug out an earthworm from the broken bricks and tiles, picked it up with two dry branches and used it to scare Xiaoting.
Xiaoting was so steady that she only took a step back and looked at him intently.
This one failed.
He jumped in front of Huang Ling again, and saw Huang Ling looking at him calmly, with a hint of teasing.
This time it failed again.
Finally, he held the earthworm in front of Song Ying again. Song Ying folded her arms and just looked at him, then tilted her head and signaled him to throw it away.
Lin Dongzhe loosened his grip, stepped aside obediently, and dared not make trouble again.
This one still failed.
"The female comrades in this hospital are not ordinary female comrades at all. Dongzhe's awareness is a little low." Zhou Huaiyi said to Lin Wufeng.
"That's right." Lin Wufeng expressed his strong agreement.
Everyone worked together to clear the vacant lot. Zhou Huaiyi got some building materials and, together with Lin Wufeng and Li Yiming, took advantage of the break before the New Year to prepare the ground, connect the water pipes, and build a awning.
With this additional space, the front yard becomes more spacious and comfortable.
Before I knew it, another year had passed.
