Song Lili has her own things to do, and so do the others.
Zhang Qinghua led the children to put up couplets and hang lanterns at home. The whole family was happily together and very busy.
The New Year atmosphere was quite good; it was always joyful and lively.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Qian Liulin and Wu Ying came to our house.
Firstly, they came to pay a New Year's visit, and secondly, they wanted to see Song Yongren and give him a chat.
However, their timing was not right; Song Yongren and his group had just gone home.
Hearing that Song Yongren and the others had all returned to Hongqi Village for the Spring Festival, Wu Ying felt very sorry. She has been taking care of Wu Zhongge, so she doesn't have much time to go out.
Now, if we don't see Song Yongren and the others, we don't know when we'll meet again.
Qian Liulin didn't have such concerns. She could come anytime she wanted.
However, upon hearing that Song Yongren was not there, I couldn't help but say that their timing was inappropriate.
I originally planned to come and wish Song Yongren a Happy New Year. However, I didn't expect that Song Yongren wouldn't be here.
Since Song Yongren wasn't there, they left all the gifts for Song Jianshe's family with Song Lili, thinking she could deliver them to them when Song Jianshe and the others returned.
Song Lili obediently accepted them, because these were the things they had specifically requested for Song Yongren.
Therefore, Song Lili had no way to refuse, and she couldn't refuse on behalf of Song Yongren either, so she could only accept it.
Then, the group of them sat and chatted at Song Lili's house.
We've known each other for over ten years and are familiar with each other's situations. So, we can be very open and honest with each other when we talk.
As they were about to leave, Qian Liulin said to Song Lili, "Zhang Zeyu is coming to Ducheng soon, right? Has he told you when he's coming to the capital?"
Song Lili looked at Qian Liulin with some surprise. "Why are you asking me about this? Since you were the one who transferred him to the capital, you should know the most about his affairs."
"But how come I don't think you knew when Zhang Zeyu was coming? Is that even possible?"
Song Li found it all rather unbelievable. Qian Liulin should be Zhang Zeyu's superior now, so how could the leader not know when his subordinate started work and have to ask an "outsider" like her?
This was the first time Song Lili had heard of it either.
When asked about this issue, Qian Liulin said with some helplessness, "It's not that I deliberately didn't value him. It's just that Zhang Zeyu's superiors wouldn't let him go."
"The transfer order has been issued for quite some time, and we've urged them several times. However, Zhang Zeyu hasn't confirmed when he'll be coming."
"I'm not entirely sure if Zhang Zeyu will actually come. Anyway, Zhang Zeyu's current boss is stubborn and insists that he's one of his most capable subordinates. He just won't let him go."
"I'm even considering giving up and letting Zhang Zeyu take over." Qian Liulin also felt a terrible headache when talking about Zhang Zeyu's current boss.
That person was like a stubborn mule, refusing to listen to anything and only believing in his own thoughts.
So no matter who wants Zhang Zeyu, he won't give him to them.
This time, Qian Liulin was also afraid that the previous situation would repeat itself.
Seeing Qian Liulin's helpless look, Song Lili couldn't help but chuckle. "It's rare to see Brother Qian so helpless. It seems there are still people who can handle you."
Song Lili was particularly curious about the person who could even frustrate Qian Liulin.
I wonder what kind of personality Qian Liulin must have to have to make him show such an expression.
However, seeing that Qian Liulin was genuinely worried, Song Lili still gave him a heads-up.
“My cousin has already written to me, saying that he will come back to the capital after the New Year. I think you don’t need to worry about him not coming to the capital.”
"Really?" Qian Liulin's eyes lit up immediately when he heard Song Lili's words, and he looked at Song Lili with great surprise.
He felt this was the best news he had heard all year.
Song Lili rarely saw Qian Liulin so emotionally expressive; it seemed he was genuinely happy, and she couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"Yes. He said he'll be back after the New Year. Or should I go get you the letter and you can read it yourself?"
Qian Liulin felt this was unnecessary, so he refused and stopped Song Lili from getting the letter, saying, "Forget it, no need to read it, I believe you."
"You wouldn't lie to me about this, and besides, there's no benefit for you in lying to me. However, hearing this news has really put my mind at ease. I no longer have to worry about Zhang Zeyu's superiors not releasing him."
"It seems that I should also prepare and plan my work for this year."
"Zhang Zeyu is someone I've taken a liking to. I need to take a good look at him and figure out what kind of job would be most suitable for him."
Qian Liulin said these words, but in his mind he had already begun to filter the jobs and see which ones were suitable for Zhang Zeyu.
After telling Qian Liulin the news, Song Lili didn't care what arrangements Qian Liulin made.
Anyway, these are their work-related matters, and Song Lili won't say much or meddle in them presumptuously.
After seeing Qian Liulin and Wu Ying off, Song Lili went to Song Fang's house.
Last time, she didn't tell Fangfang that Zhang Zeyu was coming to the capital, and Fangfang complained about it. This time, Song Lili felt that she should take the initiative.
When they arrived at Song Fang's house, the whole family was chatting in the room. They were pleasantly surprised to see Song Lili.
Song Lili didn't say much to them, only that she had something to discuss with Song Fang, so the two of them went directly to Song Fang's bedroom.
"Sister, what brings you here today?" Song Fang asked Song Li directly. The two sisters had a very good relationship, so there was no need for any preamble.
"Didn't you complain last time that I didn't tell you about Zhang Zeyu? This time, I'm very proactive in telling you."
“He said he would come to Ducheng after the New Year. I will come and call you then, and you can take the children to eat there.”
Song Fang glanced at Song Lili sideways, seemingly genuinely surprised that Song Lili would be so proactive this time.
After thinking for a moment, Song Fang asked, "When did you receive the letter?"
"About seven or eight days ago," Song Lili replied without hesitation.
After answering, I suddenly felt something was a little off, and then I met Song Fang's knowing look.
"I knew it! How come you remembered it so clearly this time? It turns out it took you almost ten days to tell me."
"You say you're proactive and enthusiastic? In the past, this would have been considered missing a crucial opportunity. Do you know how much trouble you would cause and how much trouble you would get into? Do you even know that?"
