Chapter 70 Can’t go home recently?
After the meeting, Zhu Jing remembered that her birthday was in two days, and said with a smile: "It's my birthday in two days, come to my house for dinner."
"Who did you invite?" Xiang Qin asked.
It is different now. In the past, there were few people in the family compound, so they could set up tables in the yard to eat. Now a large number of new family members have come to the family compound.
It's not good for just a few of them to sit in the yard and eat chicken, duck, fish and meat.
Zhu Jing replied: "I didn't invite anyone, just us."
"Where are you going to eat?"
Zhu Jing was a little confused by the question. She blinked and pointed to the empty space beside the corridor. "Just put it here. Didn't we put it there to eat last time?"
The last time she said that was to welcome Wen Ci to the family compound.
"The buildings near us are full of people. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to hold a small banquet in the yard? Besides, men like to eat outside to save face..."
Xiang Qin's words made Zhu Jing fall into deep thought.
She understood what Xiang Qin meant. The birthday party would definitely invite men from each family. Originally, they planned to have two tables, one for the men and one for them and the children.
Suddenly, Zhu Jing seemed to think of something, looked at Wen Ci, and asked, "Sister Wen Ci, can we have dinner at your house in a few days?"
The yard of the three-bedroom apartment can easily accommodate three or four tables.
"Sure." Wen Ci agreed without thinking, "Of course, I can help out on the weekends."
After chatting, Wen Ci returned home and parked his 28-inch bicycle casually in the middle of the house. The bright sunlight shone on the bicycle, making it look particularly dazzling.
The door to the inner room was wide open. Wen Ci looked inside and thought the man was still at home. He opened his mouth and called out in a soft voice, "Huo Jingyuan~ Captain Huo~"
Although she was willing to give the gift away, she still wanted to ride on a 28-bar bicycle and let the man take her around in her own yard.
Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Wen Ci walked up the stairs to the inner room. After walking around the room and not finding Huo Jingyuan, he muttered to himself, "Hey, did he go to work?"
-
The next day, Wen Ci went to work as usual.
Yesterday I received a call from Huo Jingyuan on my landline at home, telling me that he might not be able to go home for the next two days, which would make me have to eat in the cafeteria for two days.
I'll make it up to him when he comes back.
As soon as he arrived at the hospital, Wen Ci heard some colleagues discussing that the military district had temporarily stopped the operation of buses, and curiously interrupted: "What about the families in the family compound?"
"It seems that a military vehicle was sent to pick them up."
Yu Qing walked over to Wen Ci and asked in a low voice, "Is it related to the punctured wheel?"
"That should be it."
Wen Ci looked solemn, just as she had guessed. The bus had several wheels punctured in a row, so there must be something fishy going on.
"Then the clothes for our military art performance..."
Wen Ci: “…”
I almost forgot about this.
Wen Ci took a deep breath. There was still half a day left before the military art tour, and the relevant problems should be discovered during this period.
If all else fails, ask someone to bring two sets of water sleeve dance costumes from Hai City.
Wen Ci said calmly: "Let's practice our own dance first, don't worry about the clothes." She paused and said humorously: "As the old saying goes, when the boat reaches the bridge, it will be straight."
Yu Qing laughed out loud.
The sun rose from the east and slowly set in the west. Wen Ci went straight to the cafeteria after work. The house was empty and he didn't want to wash the dishes so he just ate in the cafeteria.
Ever since the cafeteria changed its chef, the number of people eating there every day has visibly increased.
