After breakfast in the morning, Su Li checked the children's school bags. In each of them was an apple, a few pieces of White Rabbit milk candy, and a piece of egg cake, all wrapped in greaseproof paper. If the children had to walk to and from school, she was afraid that they would be hungry on the way. After checking that there was no problem, she sent the children to Mr. Xie's house. After Mr. Xie had breakfast, she would send the children to school together.
Su Li gave some instructions as usual, asking her to wait for her grandfather at the school gate after school and go home together, not to delay or run around on the way, and then she went to the brown sugar workshop.
Oh! Now it should be the brown sugar factory. In fact, when Zheng Fang came to deliver the contract last time, he said it was the brown sugar factory, but everyone was used to it and couldn't change it for a while.
Before she entered the door, she heard several voices.
"Let me tell you, when Meiling comes back to work, no one should say anything unpleasant. We are not those mean people who would use words to poke people in the throat." Aunt Lanzhi said.
"I understand. We are all serious workers after all. But I heard the rumors in the village. You haven't heard how bad it is. Oh! Sister Meiling will be upset when she hears it when she comes back."
"Humph! Is this Meiling's fault? It's all because of those people with red eyes who only see the good in others and don't even look at what kind of life Meiling has been living these years."
"Anyway, let's just treat it as if she has no career and just go on with her life as normal. If she wanted to make people feel pity for her over the years, she wouldn't have been so aggressive outside. Anyway, let's just go with her life as normal."
"Yes, yes, yes. Don't say anything to comfort her, or she will be sad."
"Hey! I wonder where Meiling will live after she passes away..."
......
What the people inside said warmed Su Li's heart. She thought it was great. On her way here, she also saw people who had not gone to work, gathering in twos and threes, saying things like "it takes two hands to tango" and "flies don't bite cracked eggs" and making mocking faces.
She was afraid that the workers in the brown sugar factory would be the same. Let the outsiders say whatever they want. Yang Meiling was busy in the sugar factory all day long and wouldn't hear anything anyway.
But it's different here. Everyone is together all day long. If there are any rumors, Yang Meiling will definitely not be able to bear it. She might have to leave after two days. Even if she endures it, how long can she endure it? If a person is under too much mental pressure, he will not be able to live a good life.
Fortunately, fortunately everyone is a sensible person, and fortunately no one is misled by the rumors.
Su Li's face was filled with a smile. Everyone was talking when they suddenly saw Su Li coming and they became quiet for a moment. She had previously stipulated that people should chat less while working so as not to delay the work at hand and ruin the syrup. Also, they were to pay attention to hygiene.
So when everyone was talking excitedly and saw her, they all felt a little nervous.
Su Li also felt it, and chuckled, "Don't be nervous, everyone. I heard what you just said. Just do as you want. A kind word can warm you through the winter, but an evil word can hurt you through the summer. It's already difficult for us women to walk this path. If we women don't help other women, and even add insult to injury, then won't it be even more difficult for women to walk this path in the future?"
"Yes! Technician Su is right!"
"It's always difficult to be a woman, ah!"
Su Li continued, "But there's no need to be shy. Just do what you need to do and help as much as you can. She may need a lot of things when she moves, such as pots and pans, firewood and well water. If there's something missing at home, you can buy some. If there's nothing, just pick up some firewood and fetch some water. It's all a token of your thoughtfulness. She'll feel warmer when she sees it."
Aunt Lanzhi and the others were shocked when they heard this. Isn't that the case? We all work together. If there is no expression, it doesn't make sense. Human relations are only beneficial if there are human relations!
"What the technician said is right! I have a broken pot at home. It's useless now, so it's just right for Meiling to use it."
"Oh! If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. My husband bought a pair of chopsticks at the supply and marketing department the other day. I told him that the chopsticks at home were all good, so why buy new ones? This is just right for Meiling."
"Hahaha, don't talk about you. I have two pottery jars at home. I didn't want them anymore, but the child's father insisted on keeping them. Look, I'll send them to Meiling while he doesn't know. It will save some space at home."
"I have two chairs at home that are a bit broken and I don't want them anymore."
......
Everyone said this with disgusted expressions on their faces, but deep down, they all wanted to give the best things in their home to Yang Meiling, and Su Li understood this.
Although everyone said so, the work at hand was not delayed, so Su Li did not say anything. They were all kind-hearted people, and she felt very happy in her heart.
Xie Zhengchuan returned home near noon, having spent the second half of the night and the entire morning conducting interrogations and mediating disputes. There was nothing to do in the office in the afternoon, so he took half a day off.
On the way back from the county town, Daniu and Xie Wangcai told him what the villagers said about Su Li. Although most of the people in the village said good things about Su Li, there were still some ungrateful people.
He felt sorry for Su Li.
He walked around the yard, sorted out the dirty clothes of the adults and children in the house, and put them next to the crystal to wash. He wanted to clean up the house before his wife came back.
When Su Li returned home, she felt that the house was brand new. The ropes in the yard were full of freshly washed clothes. Waves of fragrance wafted from the kitchen, and she smiled knowingly.
When she walked into the kitchen, she saw a handsome man wearing an apron and cooking. Su Li thought the man was really good-looking and was so charming even when cooking.
Xie Zhengchuan felt a blazing light shining towards him. He turned around and saw his young wife looking at him with a smile. He raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled at Su Li.
With just such a sly smile, Su Li felt seduced. She didn't care that this was the kitchen, and walked straight forward, wrapped her arms around the man's waist, raised her foot and bit Xie Zhengchuan's earlobe.
"Why is the weather so nice? I can do laundry and cook."
Xie Zhengchuan was so moved by her bite that he almost threw the spatula in his hand away. He turned around and kissed his wife hard on the mouth.
"It's my duty. You've worked hard during this period. There's been a lot of work at the institute recently, and my family is grateful to you. It just so happens that I can take a half-day break this afternoon, so I thought of doing something to make you relax a little."
Su Li looked at the dark circles under his eyes and felt distressed. "Let me do it. You finally have a break. Take a break."
After saying that, she pretended to untie the apron around his waist. Xie Zhengchuan held her naughty little hand and said, "Don't move. This little work won't tire me out. I think I can get more tired after dinner."
Su Li didn't understand Xie Zhengchuan's words for a moment. When she looked up at his eyes with naked desire, she reached out and hit him, "Bah, shameless."
She blushed and turned out of the kitchen.
Xie Zhengchuan was left waving the spatula with a silly smile, thinking to himself, what face does he need! He wants a wife!
