After leaving Yang Dongjing's house, Song Li went to Wang Shufen's house.
Wang Shufen was cooking in the kitchen. She heard her son Zhang Qiang happily calling "Auntie Fu" and ran out of the kitchen with a spatula.
With a grin on his face, he greeted Song Li warmly, "Big sister, how come you are here? Come and sit down. I'll go get you a glass of water."
Song Li hurriedly stopped her and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to work so hard. I'll deliver something and leave right away." After that, she took out a pack of rose cakes from the basket and stuffed them into Wang Shufen's arms. "Sister-in-law, thank you so much today. If it were you, you would definitely make rose cakes. I left in a hurry at noon and didn't have time to bring you some rose cakes to eat at home. You can keep this pack of rose cakes for the children."
Wang Shufen didn't have the nerve to ask for it.
She and her two sons had already eaten at noon today, and they were very full.
If I take it again, I will feel a little shameless.
As for Song Li's words that the rose cakes could be made without her help, it sounded like a polite remark.
She is the only one in the compound who knows how to knead dough, but any old woman can do the job.
She has already taken advantage of him, no matter how thick-skinned she is, she won't dare to take advantage of him again.
"Big sister, take it back. I already took advantage of you this afternoon, how can you ask for more?" As she said this, Wang Shufen was about to stuff the rose cake in her arms into Song Li's basket.
Song Li dodged quickly. She was used to this kind of politeness and walked out of the courtyard gate.
"Sister-in-law, there is absolutely no reason to take back the things I gave you. My Fu Yanci's dinner is ready, and I want to go home for dinner." As soon as she finished speaking, she had already stepped out of the courtyard gate.
In the blink of an eye, a figure was already visible.
Run faster than a rabbit.
Wang Shufen looked at the rose cake in her hand and smiled helplessly.
I couldn't help thinking that Captain Fu's wife was pretty easy to get along with.
It was exactly as the sisters-in-law in the compound said.
She is good-looking and cute. She can even cook and has a cute figure that dares not to be provoked. She is capable and knows how to behave!
Take the rose cake for example. Which of those old ladies in the compound who are clamoring for Song Li can make it?
Combined with the gossip she heard from Huang Lili today, Song Li is planning to do something big.
Although Huang Lili didn't say it explicitly, she guessed more from the fact that Jiang Weiguo took rose cakes to give to his superiors.
Song Li was probably called by her superiors to discuss an important matter, and this important matter must be related to rose cakes.
Wang Shufen was glad that this time she did not follow those nagging old ladies to complain about Song Li.
Of course she missed the opportunity to make friends with Song Li, and also missed the opportunity to eat rose cake.
Thinking of this, Wang Shufen began to become narcissistic.
If she was good-looking and received praise from Comrade Song Li, she might be jealous of Comrade Song Li because of her good looks and end up becoming enemies with her.
Wang Shufen touched her face and asked her son narcissistically, "Qiang, is mommy really pretty?"
As soon as he heard this familiar beginning, Zhang Qiang knew that his mother was beginning to become narcissistic.
He sighed like a little adult and said perfunctorily, "Mom, you are right. You are indeed very beautiful."
It's fine if you say it looks good. At the very least you'll get scolded, at the worst you'll get beaten.
The three men in the Zhang family have become accustomed to Comrade Wang Shufen's routine.
Even though I knew that telling a lie was the right thing to do, I still told it to Comrade Wang Shufen.
Hearing what she liked, Wang Shufen instantly perked up.
She held her head high, her back straight, glanced at Zhang Qiang, and said narcissistically, "You little bastard, it's a blessing for you and your brothers to meet a mother as beautiful as me."
Zhang Qiang looked helpless, as if to say, “I knew she would say that.”
Suddenly he sniffed and said loudly, "Mom, the vegetables in your pot are burnt."
Wang Shufen waved the spatula in her hand and ran to the kitchen screaming. As she ran, she forgot to remind Zhang Qiang, "Qiang, go to the backyard with your brother to pick some vegetables and take them to your aunt's house later."
She took advantage of Song Li and had nothing good to give in return.
She saw that her elder sister was carrying a basket filled with vegetables, and thought that since her elder sister came to their home and their family didn't grow vegetables, bringing some vegetables as a return gift would be a sign of true sincerity.
Zhang Qiang responded, holding his brother's hand and skipping towards the yard.
At noon, they had rose cakes made by Song Li. In the eyes of several children, Song Li was already the most favorite person, and her status was almost as high as that of their own parents!
The children were happy to give Song Li gifts.
Song Li also knew that her position in the children's hearts was about to surpass that of her own parents.
After leaving Wang Shufen's house, she went to Huang Lili's house.
Huang Lili has had the longest contact with Song Li and is the person who knows Song Li best.
She accepted the rose cake sent by Song Li without any hesitation.
I had originally planned to pick some vegetables for Song Li, but when I saw there were vegetables in her basket, I knew someone had already sent them to her.
The food would stay fresher if it was stored for a while. Huang Lili thought that she would wait a few days until Song Li's family had almost finished eating the food, and then she would send it to them.
Compared to Song Li, she was more concerned about Song Li's meeting with the leader today.
"Little Song sister, what did the leader say?"
Song Li said without hiding anything, "Commander Lu asked me to come back and make a plan."
Huang Lili frowned, "Have you made a plan?"
Song Li wanted to say, "I forgot my plan."
She originally thought that leaders were knowledgeable and preferred to proceed from reality, but it turned out that she had misunderstood.
The leader not only likes to draw cakes, but also likes to eat cakes.
She was educated!
This time she will definitely draw some big round cakes to make sure they are full and full!
Huang Lili explained, "Draw a cake? What kind of cake? Rose cake?"
Song Li was amused by her description and said with a smile, "Yes, I forgot to draw rose cakes." This description is not wrong.
Huang Lili always felt that Song Li's smile had some other meaning.
But she couldn't figure out where to go.
"Then Xiaosongmei 떚 must draw the cake well, and it would be best if she could impress the leader in one go."
Song Li smiled and nodded, "Sister-in-law, I'll try my best."
Jiang Shu, who was lighting a fire in the kitchen, heard Song Li and Huang Lili chatting. She stuffed a piece of firewood into the stove and ran out to join in the fun.
"Auntie, can you draw? If you can, I'll teach you."
The little girl opened her big eyes and looked at Song Li with an innocent expression.
Song Li asked with a smile, "Are you good at painting?"
Jiang Shu looked a little shy, but still nodded affirmatively, "Our teacher said that I have a talent for painting."
Song Li is a photographer. She not only likes paintings taken with cameras, but also likes paintings drawn with pens.
After hearing what Jiang Shu said, she became interested.
I also want to test Jiang Shu's painting skills.
If her factory is opened, she will need a soul painter.
Good works have nothing to do with age.
Sometimes, what children see can touch people's hearts more.
She said, "Auntie needs a picture to represent the rose cake logo. It must be a rose. Little Jiangshu, please draw a good one for Auntie, okay?"
It just so happened that her rose cake needed a packaging design and logo.
If Jiang Shu's painting satisfies her, she will just use it.
No matter who you give the money to, she would be more willing to give it to someone she knows.
Jiang Shu nodded seriously, like a soldier who had just received a mission. "Auntie, I will think about it carefully and draw it well."
Song Li encouraged her, "You draw well and auntie will give you a reward."
Jiang Shu's big eyes immediately showed fighting spirit, and she nodded vigorously, "Auntie, I will work hard."
Huang Lili laughed and scolded, "Don't show off your three-legged cat painting skills to others."
Song Li retorted, "Sister-in-law, you can say that. If Xiao Shu draws what I want, it will be of great help to me."
You can't underestimate the ability of children.
Sometimes, children can see and think about things that we adults see and think about.”
Afraid that Jiang Shu's confidence would be hit by Huang Lili, Song Li encouraged her, "Xiao Shu, I believe in you, come on!"
Jiang Shu smiled with crescent-shaped eyes and said happily, "Auntie, I will try my best."
At this moment, in Jiang Shu's eyes, Song Li was glowing.
She has loved painting since she was a child, but her family thought she was just painting for fun. No one believed in her and encouraged her like Aunt Song Li did.
Little Jiang Shu had a great determination in his heart.
She must work hard to draw the paintings that Aunt Song Li needs and satisfy her.
Huang Lili thought Song Li was joking and pondered the meaning of what Song Li had just said. She changed her optimistic attitude and encouraged Jiang Shu with a smile, "Since your aunt has given you such an important task, you should paint well and paint with your heart. If you paint well, your mother will also reward you."
Jiang Shu didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.
She exclaimed, "Mom, are you telling the truth?"
Huang Lili smiled and nodded, "When has Mom ever told a lie?"
Jiang Shu jumped up with joy at the double surprise.
"Mom, I will definitely paint well and make you and aunt look forward to it."
Seeing Jiang Shu dancing with joy, Song Li smiled and said to Huang Lili, "The world of children is sometimes very simple. Just a word of recognition and encouragement can make them happy."
Huang Lili was stunned, and then said ashamedly, "Little Sister Song, I am older than you and I am the mother of two children. Sometimes I don't think about things as clearly as you do. I want to learn from you."
It's true that Song Li thinks clearly, but she has experienced it and can empathize more easily.
"Sister-in-law, it's early. I'm going home first. When I have some news, we can discuss the rest."
Remembering what Fu Yanci had said before he left, Song Li stood up and was about to leave.
Huang Lili tried to persuade him to stay, "The meal will be ready soon. Come back after dinner."
Song Li, "I'm at home cooking."
Huang Lili smiled meaningfully, "In that case, I won't keep you here. Go home quickly. Captain Fu must be waiting anxiously."
