Not long after, a middle-aged man walked towards them.
Luo Shimiao smiled and went to greet him: "Are you Director Li?"
"Yes, I spotted you all at a glance. As expected of celebrities, you're all top-notch. Come with me," Li Zhen said with a smile.
Li Zhen led them to move tables and chairs.
The two sets of tables were placed together on the open ground, and a warning line was set up.
On the first table were two notebooks and two pens, and on the second table were eggs.
Everything is ready.
Luo Shimiao suddenly realized that something was missing: "We forgot to buy bags for the eggs."
"Although I can hold it by hand, it's inconvenient and easy to drop. Wait a minute, I'll go to a nearby store to buy some bags."
Li Zhen said, "There's a shop on the right after you go out; they sell it there."
"Okay, thank you, Director Li." Luo Shimiao dashed out and disappeared in a flash.
A few minutes later, the girl returned with several bundles of red plastic bags: "Director Li, the rest is up to you."
Li Zhen gave an OK sign, took out his phone and snapped a few photos, then opened WeChat, entered a group, and typed in the input box: "Good afternoon, fellow homeowners! Good news! Good news! You can get eggs with your marriage certificate. Just write a blessing and you can get five eggs. Limited to 80 people, first come, first served!"
After sending the message, also send the pictures you just took to the group.
The group chat exploded with discussion.
People living on lower floors were the first to run out.
Li Zhen shouted through a megaphone, "Everyone, take your time, be careful, come over here and line up one by one, don't crowd."
Everyone listened to Li Zhen and lined up one after another.
A woman who looked to be around 60 years old said, "Little Li, you're giving us more perks again. We haven't even finished the milk we got last time."
Li Zhen smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, this activity was organized by these kids."
"oh?"
Aunt Zhang looked at the four people, and when she saw Luo Shimiao, her eyes lit up. She quickened her pace and walked to the table: "You have a good face. You are born with a wealthy life and will bring good fortune to your husband. Do you have a boyfriend, young lady? I can introduce you to one."
"Yes, I have." Luo Shimiao said, linking her arm with Gu Nian's.
Aunt Zhang raised her head and looked at the tall and handsome man. Her mouth slightly open, she said, "Oh my, young lady, your boyfriend is really handsome. My heart, which was about to stop, has started to race again after seeing him."
"You're so funny. Could you please write a blessing on this?" Luo Shimiao handed the pen to Aunt Zhang with both hands.
Aunt Zhang took the pen and then opened the marriage certificate: "This is my marriage certificate with the old man. Do you want to see it?"
Luo Shimiao: "No need, no need."
After finishing her writing, Aunt Zhang put down her pen and walked forward. When she saw Lan Xinyue, her eyes lit up again: "Young lady, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Yes." Lan Xinyue pointed to Zhou Yang and then handed her the packaged eggs.
Aunt Zhang, holding the eggs, shook her head as she walked, saying, "What a pity."
More than an hour later, all the eggs on the table were successfully delivered, but there were still more than a dozen people who hadn't received theirs. Luo Shimiao's eyes lit up, and he took out the roses from the trunk.
He said to them, "If you don't have eggs, you can have flowers."
"These flowers are lovely. My wife will definitely love them if I take them back," an old man said.
Luo Shimiao: "Then I'll give you a few more."
Li Zhen saw the roses in the cardboard box and hesitated to speak.
"Director Li, what are you trying to say?" Luo Shimiao noticed his expression.
"Could you save one for me? I'd like to give it to my wife," Li Zhen said shyly.
"You've helped us so much, I'll get you 9999 flowers if you want." She said, taking out 9 flowers from the box.
"You don't need so many, one will do."
Luo Shimiao: "Nine roses symbolize a long and lasting relationship."
Li Zhen blinked and cleared his throat: "Then... then nine flowers it is."
Luo Shimiao suppressed a smile: "Do you have any newspapers?"
“Newspapers…” Li Zhen lowered his head and thought, “These days very few people read newspapers. Oh right, I remember someone has one. You wait here.”
After saying that, he ran off without even asking Luo Shimiao what he needed the newspaper for.
Luo Shimiao called out to the back of the figure, "Take two more sheets, and I also need a roll of transparent tape."
"Okay," Li Zhen said without turning his head.
"Xinyue, the rest of the flowers are for you. I'll repackage them for Director Li."
Lan Xinyue: "No problem."
Luo Shimiao walked to a stone table not far away, sat down and untied the roses. Seeing that Gu Nian had followed, she said, "Help me tie these ribbons together."
"Um"
Shortly after, Li Zhen came over with several newspapers and a roll of transparent tape.
Luo Shimiao: "Thank you."
Her slender, fair fingers tore the newspaper into pieces, some large and some small.
Place nine roses on a newspaper, then fold the newspaper up and secure it with transparent tape.
Fold small pieces of newspaper into shapes and attach them to both sides of the roses. After layering them, a vintage-style bouquet of roses is soon ready.
Li Zhen accepted the bouquet and exclaimed, "Xiao Luo, you really are multi-talented."
"This is nothing special, it's very simple."
Lan Xinyue and Zhou Yang had finished giving out the roses, and each of them was lying on the table with a notebook, counting the blessings.
Zhou Yang: "We have 71 articles."
Lan Xinyue: "Goddess Miaomiao and the others have 75! Yay, we've all completed the mission!"
After everyone put the tables and chairs back in their places, Li Zhen took out his phone and said, "Can we take a group photo?"
Luo Shimiao handed his phone to the photographer and asked him to take pictures.
Li Zhen wanted to stand on the side, but everyone pulled him back and made him stand in the center.
Photographer: "3, 2, 1, cheese."
"Click..." Several camera shutter sounds rang out.
The photographer pulled up the photos, nodded in satisfaction, and then handed the phone back to Li Zhen.
In the photo, Li Zhen stands in the middle holding a bouquet of roses, with Zhou Yang and Lan Xinyue standing to his left, and Gu Nian and Luo Shimiao standing to his right.
Luo Shimiao held Gu Nian's arm, her smile as bright as the sun. Gu Nian turned his head slightly, looked down at the girl, and had a faint smile on his lips.
"Goodbye, Director Li." Lan Xinyue, sitting in the back seat, rolled down the car window and waved goodbye to Li Zhen.
Luo Shimiao also stuck her head out: "Thank you, Director Li, we're leaving now."
Li Zhen waved and said with a smile, "Goodbye."
As the car gradually disappeared from sight, Li Zhen carried the bouquet of flowers home.
After dropping Lan Xinyue and Zhou Yang off at the parking lot, the two went to the flower shop to return the folding table.
It was already five o'clock when we got back to the villa.
"Hey, where are the dung beetle and Little Green? Did they run away from home with Little Green because they were afraid I'd beat him up?" Luo Shimiao searched around but couldn't find them.
Gu Nian said calmly, "Go and rest. A person this big won't get lost."
"Uh-huh"
