This little girl has such pure eyes. In her eyes, there is only appreciation, amusement, and amusement towards me, but no lewdness or contempt.
"Don't worry, she'll be very, very good."
Zhang Hongmei arrived just in time to return to the classroom after class, where she was greeted by cheers and congratulations from the entire class.
Zhang Hongmei stood on the podium, smiling as she accepted everyone's congratulations.
"Thank you for your concern. I have lived up to your expectations. I hope you will continue to support me in the future, and I will do my best to serve you."
Chen Shuang smiled and said, "Congratulations, Zhang Hongmei."
"Thank you, counselor." Although Zhang Hongmei disliked Chen Shuang, she would never show it. Since you can pretend nothing's wrong, then let's remain amicable on the surface.
Zhang Hongmei returned to her seat, and Lu Yue turned around excitedly and said, "Zhang Hongmei, you're amazing! The vice president of the student council finally has a female classmate. Maybe there will be a female president in the future."
"Hehe, thank you for having so much confidence in me."
"Of course, from now on, the rights of the female students will depend on you."
"No problem, I will definitely try my best so as not to disappoint you."
Wei Huaqiang leaned closer and said, "You're really amazing. As soon as our department came back, they started promoting the voting, especially the story of the math genius. Your math skills have won over the entire math department."
"Hehe." Zhang Hongmei could only chuckle. What could she say? Actually, Cheng Guangxu was a very lovable person. But his emotional intelligence was just too low. This was the situation now; if it were in later generations, rumors would be flying everywhere.
Friday evening arrived. Liu Jingze waited for Zhang Hongmei. "Hongmei, I'm going back tomorrow morning, and Shan Mianzhi will be going with me."
"OK."
Zhang Hongmei got up very early in the morning, tidied up all the houses, swept the yard, and even turned over the open space next to the toilet. She should be able to come and deliver the roses today.
After tidying up, I went into the space and took a shower.
I felt hungry after coming out, but I was too lazy to move. I was just about to take out some porridge from my space when I suddenly heard the sound of a car parking and a door closing. Then I heard a knocking sound. I wondered to myself, who is this? Why are they so eager to do this? It's only 7:30 now.
I opened the door, slapped my forehead, and realized what a busy day it had been.
The carpenter delivered the furniture today, and four strong young men carried it inside.
Zhang Hongmei felt fortunate that she had done the cleaning in the morning, otherwise she would have had to make others clean up later.
But at this moment, Liu Jingze and Shan Mianzhi also arrived.
"Jingze, why don't you go to the dining room and wait for a while?"
"No need, let's see if there's anything we can help with?"
The furniture wasn't put in place until an hour later.
"Master, please make me a few dozen clothes hangers to hold my clothes."
"We have some ready-made; we'll have someone deliver it to you tomorrow."
"Master, how much is the processing fee?"
"Since you provided the timber, you only need to pay 300 for all the labor costs and auxiliary materials."
How much does a clothes hanger cost?
"I'll send you a hundred, just give me twenty."
"You'll have to wait a bit. I'd like to set up a study; could you please take my measurements?"
Zhang Hongmei led her master into the house where Liu Jingze used to live.
"Master, I plan to put a bookcase with glass doors on this half wall, and also a display shelf."
I need a three-meter-long desk, a soft couch, two round-backed chairs, and a coffee table.
The carpenter took twenty minutes to measure the dimensions.
"What kind of wood is best for the craftsman?"
"You don't need to worry about the wood, there's still plenty left. This is perfect, a complete set."
"This will take two months; displaying antiques takes time."
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go get the money right away."
Zhang Hongmei took out 320 yuan and handed it to the carpenter. She then saw them out.
"Zhang Hongmei, the wood used for this furniture is really good. It would be a waste to make ordinary furniture like this."
"Hehe. Please sit in Chairman Shan's room. I don't know anything about these things; the wood was prepared by my elders."
"Hongmei, I haven't eaten yet."
"Me too, what about Chairman Shan?"
"I didn't eat either."
"Let's cook noodles then, and we also have meat sauce."
"Okay, I'll go start the fire."
Zhang Hongmei shredded carrots. There were no other side dishes, so she just made do.
Two large bowls and one small bowl. Topped with shredded carrots, it looked especially appealing.
After the three finished eating, Liu Jingze went to wash the dishes.
"Zhang's life seems pretty good."
"It's alright, the elders are taking care of me."
There was another knock at the door. Zhang Hongmei smiled apologetically, and Liu Jingze went to open it.
The flower delivery man arrived. Zhang Hongmei thought for a moment and said, "Student Shan, have lunch at my house. Let's go somewhere else."
"Hehe. Sure, I have all day today, so I'll go along with your arrangements."
Zhang Hongmei told Liu Jingze, who was unhappy because he only just found out that Zhang Hongmei had a home near the school, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
Three people helped push the cart to Xinyuan. The gate was locked, so they called for it to be opened.
"Uncle Li, the roses I ordered have arrived. Sir, could you help me figure out how to plant them?"
"Okay, I'll plant them for you."
"Jingze, let's talk in the study, Shan. Aunt Li, please make some tea. What would Shan like to eat for lunch?"
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
"Where is Brother Jingze?"
"As long as it's refined grain, it doesn't matter how it's prepared."
"Aunt Li, do we have any meat left?"
"Also, there's a big piece of it that Xiao Li brought over last time, and I've pickled it."
"Then today we'll have rice and braised pork. Aunt Li, can you cook a few more dishes?"
"Okay, I understand. I'll get ready right away."
Zhang Hongmei led the way, and the three of them arrived at the study.
"I wonder what brings you here, Ms. Shan?" Zhang Hongmei asked bluntly.
"Hehe, it's nothing serious, I just wanted to get to know Zhang."
"Hehe." Zhang Hongmei could only laugh it off. Since the other party didn't say what their purpose was, she could only treat them as a friend.
"I really didn't expect Zhang to live near the school."
“I’ve never lived in this house before. I prefer a smaller yard. Don’t you guys feel this place is too spacious?”
Neither of the two boys spoke; Liu Jingze felt a little uncomfortable. Shan Mianzhi, on the other hand, simply didn't care about any of that.
"Zhang, do you know my current situation?"
"Hehe, we're still students, what could we possibly have?"
"You underestimate people's hearts. Maybe that's what you think, but some people want to monopolize this place. I'm also very incompetent. Now I'm in a situation where I can't fight alone. Originally, with Jing Zeying, we could barely manage a draw, but they suddenly want to be demoted, which puts me in a difficult position."
"Student Shan, my principle is to prioritize the interests of the majority, but with Brother Jingze around, as long as your decision doesn't contradict my thoughts, I will support you."
