"Sister Wang, put the food aside and let the children and Xiaoxi eat by themselves; we'll go over there and talk." Gong Zhaodi was a little worried that Wang Daya was worried.
Wang Daya gave her a puzzled look and put the tray beside her. "Xiaoxi, you and your brothers have something to eat. Your Aunt Gong and I will go over for a while."
"Okay, Aunt Wang." Nie Xi raised her eyelids and nodded.
Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi stopped at the corner. Gong Zhaodi stared at her seriously, "Sister Wang, you were staring at Nie Xi just now..."
"What's wrong with staring at the stream?" Wang Daya was confused.
"You don't have any ideas, do you?" Gong Zhaodi asked uncertainly.
Wang Daya frowned slightly, her mind racing. "What can I possibly think of?"
"That's good, that's good." She was really afraid that Wang Daya would go astray. Nie Xi was indeed a good kid, simple and kind, and had a methodical way of doing things. Such kids were very rare, and if they were properly trained, they would definitely have a bright future.
Didn’t you see that Mr. Yan was thinking about training him?
"What nonsense are you imagining?" Wang Daya rolled her eyes. "I just think there's something we need to learn from Xiaoxi."
Gong Zhaodi pondered and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Haven't you noticed that the children are very willing to listen to Nie Xi and play with her? It's only been two days, and the children's feelings for her are deeper than ours." Friendship between children comes and goes suddenly; however, this does not prevent her from seeing the shining points in Nie Xi.
"What's so strange about that? It's normal for children to be attracted to each other!"
Wang Daya looked at her speechlessly, wanting to roll her eyes again, but she held it back. She patiently explained, "Xiaoxi is really patient with them and really wants to play with them. We didn't realize that Xiaoxi's patience with the three children surpassed ours, and she really respects their opinions when she's with them."
"We will also respect their opinions." Gong Zhaodi replied without knowing the reason.
"That's different. We are used to imposing our thoughts on them. Think about it, isn't it? We think it's good for them, but they are resisting us subconsciously." They are different from others at such a young age. They don't understand these things now and can't express them, but their actions make it clear that they don't like being manipulated by others.
Wang Daya couldn't help but feel relieved. "Luckily we discovered it early. If it had continued like this, Comrade Zhong would have been busy and we wouldn't have noticed. Comrade Yan, a man, wouldn't have cared at all, and the old man would have been the same. Sooner or later, we would have made mistakes, and by then, it would have been irreversible."
Gong Zhaodi didn't think too much about it. She just did her best to do her job and take care of the children. She never had such thoughts. But Wang Daya might have had such thoughts. Thinking of this, Gong Zhaodi's eyes fell on Wang Daya's face. Sure enough, she looked scared.
Sometimes, a person is not bad from the beginning, but tests things step by step; testing the bottom line, testing the way others act, to see if the last step is right or wrong.
It is difficult to learn to be a good person, but easy to learn to be a bad person.
"Sister Wang, you should think about this carefully." After saying that, she turned around to feed the children.
Wang Daya sighed and followed; she was as capable, thoughtful and well-behaved as Gong Zhaodi, and similarly, she also thought more than Gong Zhaodi.
Gong Zhaodi was purely looking after the children, but what about her? It wasn't insincere; it was that Zhong Yuxiu wasn't very involved in the Yan family, while Yan Rushan was, but he was busy! Old Yan, on the other hand, didn't care; he was just happily hugging his great-grandson. Over time, her caution wore away, and by the time her true ambitions blossomed, she was ready to make mistakes.
"Comrade Gong, I'm going to the kitchen to make some tea and bring it to the main hall. Please look after the children."
"Okay, Sister Wang, go and do your thing." Gong Zhaodi agreed immediately, and after watching her leave, she fed the children one by one; they took a bite each, and they didn't make any noise. Three bowls were neatly placed, and each person had a spoon, and they ate happily.
Yan Guofeng had no idea what was happening in the yard; he was entertaining Yu Yuanzhu and others. When they met for the first time, it was Yan Guofeng who asked them about their situation, how they were doing in the company, and what opinions or suggestions they had for Jinshan Group!
Yu Yuanzhu answered them one by one, but his answers were very cautious, and no one felt that they were inappropriate, and they were even perfect; however, it was this perfection that made the old man satisfied and dissatisfied with this person at the same time, because his answers were too impeccable.
Nearing noon, Yu Yuanzhu and others looked at the time and said goodbye. Yan Guofeng saw them off, glanced at the children, and asked someone to serve the meal.
After lunch, Yan Guofeng accompanied the children for a nap, and Nie Xi also went home. When she went back, she did not accept the things given by Wang Daya. Her parents had told her not to accept things from others, and she always kept this in mind.
Yu Yuanzhu returned to the company and quickly prepared a report on the funding for Hongxing Village, which he gave to Yan Rushan for review.
"Mr. Yan, I personally went to Red Star Village and sponsored a total of sixteen children. Please review them."
Yan Rushan took the report and carefully read it. After closing it, he couldn't help but ponder, "What did the head of Red Star Village say?"
"The village chief is very excited and will be very grateful to you if it succeeds."
"Did you reveal my identity?"
Yu Yuanzhu saw that his expression was not right and said, "It wasn't me who said that. The village chief guessed it. I only mentioned it briefly and he told me when I asked."
That's not the same as what you said.
Yan Rushan had no intention of pursuing the matter. Since he had chosen to provide financial assistance, it didn't matter if the village chief knew his intentions. However, he would have to entertain the village chief and the villagers when he met them in the future.
"It's up to you to handle this matter. After the funds are allocated, you need to check them regularly." He had no objection to using the money for charity, but it must not be embezzled by anyone.
Most of the dividends from the charity foundation belonged to Yuxiu. He would not tolerate anyone being greedy for his wife's things.
Yan Rushan signed the document and handed it back to him. "Compile a statistics of the foundation's funds and report to me before the end of the year."
"Okay, Mr. Yan." Yu Yuanzhu took the document and did not leave. He looked at him hesitantly as if he wanted to say something.
Yan Rushan glanced at him and asked, "What else?"
"Mr. Yan, today we learned that the old man lives in Hongxing Village, so we came to visit him. It's just that we left so suddenly that we didn't bring anything with us, which was a bit rude."
"It's okay, Grandpa doesn't care about these things. Just do your job well and don't bother him in the future."
"Okay, Mr. Yan, I understand; I won't go there again." Yu Yuanzhu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly responded.
They had selfish motives in visiting the old man, but they also knew that the old man lived in the village; it would be unreasonable for them not to pay him a visit, so they went ahead and visited him without bringing any gifts out of the belief that courtesy is the best policy.
