When I was halfway through cleaning the house, Grandpa and Uncle Wu came over.

"This little yard is great! I like it!"

It's obvious that it was Xiao Yu who took care of the arrangement. For the fourth child in their family, as far as matters related to this matter are concerned, having a place to live is all that matters.

As soon as Grandpa Yan came in, he picked a date and put it in his mouth. After eating it, he nodded with satisfaction.

"How is it? Delicious!"

"Yes, very sweet!"

"There is also a persimmon tree that you like the most, planted in the neighbor's yard. Xiaoyu said that he would pick some and make persimmon cakes for you to eat later."

"Little Yu is still a girl who knows how to care for others."

"Why did you pick so many dates? Are you going to pick more after you finish eating them? It would be a waste if you can't finish them."

"Pick some and distribute them to the studio staff later."

"Then I'll help too."

When Song Fuyu saw his grandfather and Uncle Wu coming back, he asked Yan Ziyuan to make a cup of honey water for each of them and bring it out.

"Grandpa, have you decided where to stay tonight?"

"Of course I live with your grandmother."

"Grandma said she would live here, but the room here is small. If you don't want to, you can live with Uncle Wu at Uncle Li's house."

"I live here too. The room is smaller and warmer."

Since returning to Beijing, he has not been separated from Qinglan for almost ten years. He must be very uncomfortable with suddenly not living together.

"The house next to you is currently unoccupied, right?"

"Well, after the previous family moved out, there has been no movement for the time being. It's pretty good now, quiet and no one disturbs me."

"What about the other family? How are the people there?"

"It's good. They are not talkative people. If you need their help, they usually won't hesitate."

"Xiao Yu has the best relationship with the family next door. He often goes to their house to play during his breaks. This time when I returned to Beijing, I entrusted the yard to their youngest son to take care of it. They also help manage the private plot. You don't have to worry about anything. Everything is taken care of for you."

"Same position as you?"

"Lower."

"How old?"

"I think I'll be thirty soon."

"If you have good character and ability, next time you have a chance to move up, you can find a way to help me."

"Got it. I'll decide based on the situation."

Xiaoyu and Ziyuan both have good vision. The people they can identify are at least of good character.

The current environment is completely different from their previous one. Before, they could fight for their future by fighting on the battlefield. Now, if they don’t have strong abilities and connections, at the age of 30, they can only move up one or two levels. If they are unlucky and don’t meet good times, they may be replaced.

Give others a helping hand as appropriate. It is better to have one friend than one enemy.

..........

After cleaning, Song Fuyu carried dates and took his grandparents to the studio.

"This was originally an activity room, but it had been idle for a long time and had no major use, so I asked for it. At first, Uncle Li gave me two rooms, and later, after the embroidery was added, he gave me another one."

"This Li Yunhua only has a few small rooms, but he is so stingy. He is not generous at all."

"It's already very good. He even specially arranged two people to be on duty every day to take care of our security issues. There are also people on duty at night, so there is no need to worry about things getting lost."

"This is what he should do. We have given him so much dividends. If he does nothing, we will take it back and not give it to him."

Song Fuyu could see that his grandfather was Uncle Li's biggest anti-fan. He criticized him relentlessly and showed no mercy at all.

"After receiving the dividend, Uncle Li helped install a faucet in the tube building. Before, they had to fetch water from the well every day, but now they can directly get it in the corridor, which is much more convenient."

There was a chorus of applause for this change in the tube-shaped building, and even someone like Wang Aixiang, who loved to find fault, did not say anything.

"Yeah, Fu Yu, you're finally back."

Liu Aihua came out and was about to go to the warehouse to get something. When she saw Song Fuyu coming back, her joy was written all over her face.

"Grandpa and grandma, let me introduce you. This is Liu Aihua, one of the team leaders of our studio. The persimmon tree is planted in her yard."

"Hello, Xiao Liu. I often hear Xiao Yu talk about your kindness at home. Thank you for taking care of our Xiao Yu."

When Liu Aihua heard Song Fuyu's address, she knew that they were Yan Ziyuan's grandparents.

This person was at the chief level, a big shot whom she would never normally meet.

Liu Aihua felt flattered by such respectful and humble words to him, and at the same time was impressed by their love for Song Fuyu.

"Grandpa Yan, you are too kind. I am grateful to Fu Yu for taking care of me. If it weren't for her, I would definitely still be making paper boxes at home to make a living."

"Mrs. Liu, these are the dates grown in my yard. Could you please share them with everyone?"

Seeing so many dates, Liu Aihua couldn't help laughing.

"You are finally back. If you hadn't come back, our Xiaozheng would have drooled every day looking at the jujubes and hawthorns in your yard."

"Didn't he pick them and eat them?"

"No!"

"I asked him to pick two to try, but he said he didn't agree to anything and said he had to get your permission if he wanted to eat them."

"Not only does he not pick them himself, he also doesn't let others pick them. Last time, Xiaobai wanted to pick some to taste, but Xiaozheng saw him and yelled at him to stop."

Liu Aihua found it funny when she thought of that scene.

"Xiao Zheng takes such good care of our yard. When he comes back from school, I will reward him well. You are not allowed to stop me. This is a matter between the two of us."

"Okay, I don't care. Let the two of you communicate on your own."

When the other employees saw Song Fuyu, they all greeted her enthusiastically.

"Teacher Song, you're finally back. I always feel like something is missing when you're not around."

"Not used to not having a strict person watching you from time to time, are you?"

"Haha, if we talk about strictness, Big Girl Sister might be better now."

"Teacher Song, thank you for the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts you gave us."

"You're welcome. Let's have some fun together during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Before she left, she left 2,000 yuan with Liu Aihua for safekeeping, mainly to settle her salary. She originally planned to come back before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she didn't expect that she would be delayed by taking the driver's license test. So she called back and asked Liu Aihua and Wu Daniu to discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts together. The standard was set at about 3 yuan per person, and the specific purchases were decided by the two of them.

After the decision was made, Mrs. Liu called her.

Instead of buying expensive things like mooncakes, they each received five kilograms of rice, one kilogram of pork and one kilogram of white sugar.

The studio employees were all very happy when they received the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.

"Keep working hard and strive to give everyone year-end bonuses during the Chinese New Year. The prizes will definitely be more than during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so you can look forward to it."

"Ah, why tell us now? I'm afraid I'll have sleepless nights starting tonight."

"In that case, I take back what I said. There will be no year-end bonus."

"no!"

"There's no point taking back what you've said."

"that is."

“We choose to lose sleep!”
