Chapter 213 Take Action

Zhu Fen was very enthusiastic.

Before Zhu Suisui moved in, both his grandfather and Jiao Shanyun told him that he should maintain good relations with the families in the family compound.

I don't mean to try to please others deliberately, but I do need to be polite.

The Lu family is not lacking in this aspect. This is a new family compound with about seventy or eighty households living here. Basically, they are all at the group level or above, but their years of service and merits are different, so the distribution of houses is bound to be biased.

Take Lu Lanxu for example. He is only 28 years old this year, but he was specially recruited into the military academy when he was 11 or 12 years old. He has been in the army for more than 15 years. In addition, he has made meritorious contributions. Only then could he apply for this house. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed not easy.

Zhu Suisui thought that there were seventy or eighty households, which was neither too many nor too many. It was not that she could not afford seventy or eighty boxes of Daoxiang snacks, but the brand was too famous and the price was not very cheap. She was afraid that someone would say that she was wasting money, and it would be inappropriate to give this as a gift. After all, this place was different from other places, and family members needed to be more careful about their words and deeds so as not to bring trouble to her husband.

Fortunately, Zhu Suisui has a good skill.

It’s just that I haven’t used it since my rebirth, so it may come in handy this time.

Before going to find his sister-in-law, Zhu Suisui prepared to make some pastries first.

Before moving in, Lu Lanxu had already asked Xiao Pan to buy the ingredients and have them delivered.

When Zhu Fen heard Zhu Suisui say he wanted to make something, she volunteered, "I'll help you. You're really thoughtful. Since you want to visit, you can't come empty-handed."

I also dealt with Zhu Fen several times.

Zhu Suisui couldn't help laughing when she said that. "Sister-in-law, you are such a nice person. No matter what I say, you always compliment me. It feels like everything I do is right in front of you."

Having a friend like this around you really makes you feel good.

After all, Zhu Fen smiled all day long, as if she had no worries, and no matter what Zhu Suisui said, she would praise him a little, and her praise was not exaggerated, but rather very sincere.

This was the first time that Zhu Fen was spoken of like this. She couldn't help but shook her head and felt a little embarrassed.

"I hope you don't give up on me. I'm not as good as you say. I really think you are very thoughtful."

Zhu Suisui is very grateful that he met such good neighbors when he moved in.

She said seriously, "How could I possibly dislike my sister-in-law? She has helped me so much, and I can't thank her enough. To me, my sister-in-law is warm-hearted and simple-minded. She is simply a role model among family members."

Zhu Fen's face turned red due to the compliment. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Zhu Suisui, but her hands were dancing with joy.

"Come on, come on, let your sister-in-law help you with the work!"

Really cute.

Zhu Suisui couldn't help laughing.

I have to say that Zhu Fen is a good worker. With her help, the date mud cake was made quickly.

Each portion was cut into small pieces. Zhu Suisui's knife skills were also very good, and each portion was cut into ten even-sized pieces.

In fact, ten pieces together are only the size of one, but this way it is not only convenient to eat, but also looks abundant and exquisite.

Anyway, it's just to try something new and as a gift for a new date. What if I make too much and someone doesn't like it? That would be a waste.

Zhu Fen didn't expect Zhu Suisui's craftsmanship to be so good. Although he was weak, he was very organized and deft when doing things on the chopping board.

In Beijing, every household makes this date mud cake during the New Year, and it is not a rare item.

However, Zhu Suisui learned the tricks of the trade in her previous life, so the date mud cakes she made were naturally different from those made by others. Once you tasted the flavor, you would know it was absolutely unique.

Although Zhu Suisui gave Zhu Fen some Daoxiang snacks, he still let Zhu Fen take two of the prepared jujube mud cakes back home.

Zhu Fen was reluctant at first: "You've already given me other things, so you should give these to your other sisters-in-law."

Zhu Suisui smiled and said, "I always make extra and each portion is calculated. Sister-in-law, our relationship is different and you have helped me a lot. I should give you an extra portion."

This is what was said.

Anyway, Zhu Fen felt warm inside after hearing this.

Zhu Fen wrapped seventy or eighty portions of jujube mud cakes in oil paper and went home to get a basket.

The bamboo basket was woven by Zhu Fen herself. It was very skillful and could hold a lot of things. She could put all the jujube mud cakes in it.

Zhu Fen felt that Zhu Suisui couldn't lift it and was unwilling to let her help.

Looking at the bamboo basket, Zhu Suisui couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is really good. It looks better than those sold outside."

Zhu Fen never thought that her cooking skills were good, but Zhu Suisui praised her so much, and it didn't seem like she was lying at all. It seemed like she really liked it.

She patted her chest and said, "If you like it, I'll make it for you."

Zhu Suisui thought for a moment and said, "Okay, can you help me weave a bamboo basket? But I want one with handles on both sides."

She described it to Zhu Fen.

In fact, I just want to put dirty clothes here, and it looks beautiful when placed in the room.

Zhu Fen understood immediately, "Okay, it would be even better if you could draw it. I can make all the details exactly the same for you."

That's really amazing.

Sister-in-law Zhu Fen is a hidden talent!

The two set off.

On the way.

Zhu Fen said, "The sister-in-law's surname is Shao. She doesn't live with us, but in the bungalow."

Then she talked about her husband's position.

Zhu Suisui was a little surprised. "According to the position of Shao's husband, shouldn't he live in the small house?"

Zhu Fen explained, "It depends on one's awareness. When the rooms were first divided, Sister Shao was there. They did have a share at that time, but both of them were highly conscious and chose to live in a bungalow. They said they liked living in a bungalow, but in fact they gave it to others. So Sister Shao is quite prestigious in our family and is warm and caring to everyone."

so it is.

Zhu Suisui couldn't help but admire this spirit of dedication.

It may sound silly to prefer to live a worse life and give up the good things. After all, most people are self-centered and selfishness is part of human nature.

But for the older generation, dedication is what they do all their lives, and selflessness has become their spirit.

This deserves praise and admiration.

After hearing what Zhu Suisui said, he had a very good impression of the sister-in-law he was about to meet.

Waiting to the place.

Zhu Suisui took one look and found that the bungalow was indeed not as grand as the small villa. Not only was the yard crowded, the house did not have two floors. It was definitely not that spacious and comfortable to live in, and even the orientation was not that good.

This makes Mrs. Shao and her husband even more respectable.

Zhu Fen went to knock on the door.

Soon there was a sound coming from inside.

I don’t know if it was Zhu Suisui’s illusion.

This voice actually sounded familiar.
