When Sister Yan Zi said this, her eyes were filled with pure affection.
Yu Sui had only seen people like this who were passionate about the country and the army in nostalgic TV dramas before.
Now, such a selfless military wife is standing in front of her.
Yu Sui: "Sister-in-law, since it's not a job, let's do it together. I'll bear the expenses this time."
Sister Yan Zi shook her head. "That's not right. How much does Xia Linsheng earn? You didn't get much pay before. I know all this. In comparison, Lao Fang and I make more together. Besides, Lao Fang and I don't have any elders above us, so there are fewer people to support, so the expenses are less. But you are different. You have to save money to get married, and you have to have children and raise them in the future! Hurry up and get the invoices out. I need to discuss something else with you."
Seeing that Sister Yan was very persistent, Yu Sui gave her the invoice for the main ingredients from the pharmacy: "Sister-in-law, these are all. There are other secret recipes that I won't give to you."
The happy Sister Yan Zi was unusually surprised: "Ah! Secret recipe? This is difficult! I was originally thinking of discussing with you whether you could teach us how to make this plaster!"
“You want to produce this?”
"I thought before, look at our place, it's very cold at least half of the time. Your plaster is effective for rubbing hands and face. If we produce it ourselves, the cost can be reduced. Then every comrade can use it, and ordinary people can buy it too! But since there is no secret recipe, forget it." Sister Yan Zi waved her hand generously, collected the invoice and went on to get busy.
Yu Sui held her back and said, "Sister-in-law, even though it's not a secret recipe, it's okay for me to share it for the sake of everyone. However, if you let me teach you this, I'll have to stay an extra month."
Sister Yan Zi turned around and looked back, and Yu Sui winked at her.
"Oh..." Sister Yan Zi laughed out loud, "I see! You little girl, you just want to spend more time with Xia Linsheng, right? Oh, how lucky is Xia Linsheng? He's a rough guy, but a little smart girl like you likes him! So, I'll report this matter to the leaders of the County Commercial Bureau and let them study it. If they agree, I'll apply for two more months for you!"
“Thank you, sister-in-law!”
"Why thank you, sister-in-law? Thank you, young ladies, for being willing to marry soldiers and defend our country together with them." Sister Yanzi hugged Yu Sui emotionally.
Yu Sui hugged her back: "Oh, sister-in-law, you're making me feel uncomfortable!"
This kind of interaction brought the two people closer together.
Sister Yan Zi really treated Yu Sui as her little sister. She straightened Yu Sui's clothes and lovingly taught her:
"Just focus on your work and don't be too calculating. It will make you feel more relaxed. Some people like to play with power, but that's because their hearts have strayed from the right path, and they will reap the consequences sooner or later. Let's just do our own thing. Also, don't be nervous about the family reunion in a few days, just follow me."
"Oh, I understand."
In a blink of an eye, the little girl is gone.
It was a particularly cold day. Yu Sui went to check if there was a fire in the kang in the morning. If there was no fire, the room would be too cold to stay in.
Sister Yan Zi said that the soldiers guarding the border can only change shifts once an hour in such weather, otherwise they will easily get frostbite.
Yu Sui thought, she couldn't stand in the snow for an hour, it was too cold.
The factory was closed for the next day, so Yu Sui just ate something, knitted a sweater, and it was noon soon.
The family reunion started at 10 o'clock and ended at 4:30 in the afternoon.
The time is arranged like this, not to say that you can have lunch at 10 o'clock. It's cold here, so lunch is usually eaten at 11 o'clock. 10 o'clock is already afternoon, so you can go back indoors early to keep warm at night.
Yu Suiyi put on her duck down jacket next to her body, and put on a navy blue cotton jacket on the outside. She was dressed so well that no one would even look at her when she walked on the street. Then she went to the gate of the family compound.
Sister Yan Zi and Yu Sui agreed to meet there before 10 o'clock, because she had to inspect various supply and marketing cooperatives the next day to ensure that the most necessary supplies were provided to the people during the winter break. The time was very tight and she would not meet there in advance.
When Yu Sui walked over, Sister Yan Zi was riding a bicycle. She was also wearing an extremely ordinary navy blue cotton jacket and a black scarf. She was as plain as could be.
When the two met, they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Sister Yan Zi spoke first: "You're really smart. You know that the simpler the occasion, the better. How come you're so smart?"
Yu Sui: "My sister-in-law taught me well."
"Hahaha!" Sister Yan laughed heartily and took Yu Sui's hand: "Come on, let's go in together, it's too late, someone will come up with another excuse."
As expected by Yan Zisao, although Yu Sui and Yan Zisao were not late, they still suffered the sarcasm of the organizer Guan Changqing.
Because everyone else has already left.
The social gathering was held in the cafeteria.
The long table made up of several dining tables was decorated in a way that looked like a Western aristocratic banquet for guests. It was not only covered with a snow-white tablecloth and filled with melon seeds, cakes and other things, but also decorated with reed bushes.
It was the badge of a great figure placed in the very center that brought Yu Sui's vision back to reality.
Everyone was sitting on both sides of the table. There were about a dozen people, all of them were around 30 years old.
There was only a woman sitting at the head of the long table. She looked to be in her forties and was wearing a tweed coat with a stand-up collar. She looked quite imposing.
Guan Changqing was wearing a black cotton jacket with red trimmings and a bright red silk scarf with gold thread tied around his neck. He was chatting and laughing next to the woman at the head of the table.
The two of them seemed to be talking about something very happy, laughing so hard that their bodies were shaking, and they didn't notice Yu Sui and Yan Zisao coming.
But in fact, when Yu Sui arrived, she saw Guan Changqing glanced at the door first.
Most of the female officials stood up when they saw Sister Yan Zi coming, and calls like "Sister Yan Zi is here", "Sister Yan", and "Sister Yan, come and sit down" were heard one after another.
Sister Yan Zi pulled Yu Sui and sat down in a larger space.
Then I heard Guan Changqing say in a tone of voice: "Hey! Our entire group's most influential sister-in-law is here. I said she must make others wait for her before she comes. After all, she is the manager of the county supply and marketing cooperative. She must have some momentum to show her power. What do you think, comrades?"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to respond to such words, and most of them lowered their heads silently.
Sister Yan Zi herself was the calmest.
She seemed not to hear Guan Changqing's words. She just walked to the other end of the long table with a smile on her face and greeted the woman at the end: "Sister Yuan, I haven't seen you for a long time."
The corner of Sister Yuan's mouth twitched: "That's right, you are so busy. Everyone else comes on time at 11 o'clock, but you have to come at 10 o'clock!"
