[Chapter 186 Chapter 186 Qiao An’s Gift]
"Please, please, please." Faced with Zhao Yuanyuan's persistence, Shen Yuyao was helpless and could only nod and agree.
"Tomorrow afternoon, we'll all be working the early shift tomorrow. I'll treat you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant after get off work."
"No." Zhao Yuanyuan immediately refused.
Seeing Shen Yuyao's surprised expression, she said, "We are going to your house. Last time, when your family's Cheng Tuan came to our building to buy a bicycle with you, many people saw it and said that you two are a perfect match.
Jiang Xiaoyan and I were not at work that day, so we had to go to your house to take a look."
"What are you looking at?" Shen Yuyao was a little confused about what these people were thinking.
"You guys want to go to my house to see him?"
"No, no." Zhao Yuanyuan felt embarrassed after hearing this.
Even if you have this idea, you can't say it. How can you say you are going to someone else's house to see someone else's man!
Of course she didn't think so.
She could only explain with a stammer: "I heard... there are many unmarried cadres in your division."
Shen Yuyao understood it immediately.
Zhao Yuanyuan, Jiang Xiaoyan and the others haven’t found a partner yet!
She burst into laughter.
"Okay, then come to my house for dinner tomorrow. I'll help you ask about whatever you want. I can't guarantee it, but I'll try my best."
"What are you thinking about? What did we think? We just want you to treat us." Zhao Yuanyuan's face turned red when she was exposed by Shen Yuyao.
She pushed Shen Yuyao and tried to stay calm, but her face turned redder the more she spoke.
Even Ding Cuizhen who was standing by couldn't help laughing when she heard it.
Zhao Yuanyuan was laughed at even more and she didn't know whether to stand or sit. She couldn't stay there any longer, so she found an excuse and ran away.
Instead, Shen Yuyao was left sitting there and laughing for a long time.
After Zhao Yuanyuan walked away, Shen Yuyao looked at Ding Cuizhen and said, "Master, you should go tomorrow as well. I'll go buy some delicious food, and then we'll have dinner later and wait for you to come over in the evening."
"No. Why would I go to a party of you young people?"
Ding Cuizhen firmly refused and decided to take over two hours earlier tomorrow to give her apprentice time to go shopping.
Although Zhao Yuanyuan clamored to treat everyone, she was not a person who did not know her limits.
There were only five people reported to Shen Yuyao.
They are her, Jiang Xiaoyan, Zhang Qiangsheng, and two other girls who get along well with her, one named Liu Cuicui and the other named Shi Xiaoyun.
The parents of these two girls are both cadres in the supply and marketing cooperatives. Their family backgrounds are similar to Zhao Yuanyuan and her friends, and they can usually play together.
Zhao Yuanyuan and Jiang Xiaoyan have a good relationship with Shen Yuyao, and gradually they also get along well with Shen Yuyao.
With the list in hand, Shen Yuyao called Xiao Mei as soon as she got home in the evening, wanting to ask her and Chen Fei to come over to help tomorrow.
When Xiao Mei heard that Shen Yuyao was promoted to team leader and was going to invite colleagues to dinner at home to celebrate, she was even more excited than Shen Yuyao.
He immediately took charge and said, "You go to work as usual tomorrow, and leave the shopping to me. I'll get up early and go to the seafood market and buy whatever is available. If nothing else, at least I guarantee that it's fresh!"
As she spoke, she looked at Shen Yuyao eagerly: "Shall I buy some pumpkin and potatoes too? Are we going to have a barbecue? If so, I'll buy some eggplant and winter squash."
Although she said that she was asking Shen Yuyao for help, her expectant eyes made it impossible to refuse.
"Buy some if you want to eat."
Shen Yuyao smiled and said, "I'll leave you a key. When you're done buying, just put it here and don't bring it to the second floor of your house.
If you have oysters, buy more. They are delicious when grilled. "
"Okay." Xiao Mei immediately smiled.
Then she suggested, "Yuyao, should we also invite Mrs. Feng from across the street? I see that you have a pretty good relationship with her now."
"I'll go and ask, but she may not attend," Shen Yuyao said.
Because of buying books together, Joan seemed to have become closer to her.
However, Shen Yuyao also understood a little about Qiao An's personality. She probably didn't like to get too close to others.
So she wasn't sure if she could call anyone over.
But it's okay to ask.
Xiao Mei talked to Shen Yuyao for a few more words, took the money she was asked to help buy groceries tomorrow, and left.
Shen Yuyao knocked on the door opposite.
Knowing that Shen Yuyao was going to invite her colleagues to dinner at home tomorrow and invited her to join, Qiao An obviously hesitated.
After asking about the participants, she found out that Xiao Mei was also going, and she nodded.
Then she said, "Bingbing and Xiuxiu are coming to my house next month, and I have never taken care of children before. I just want to ask you what preparations you should make."
She smiled a little embarrassedly: "I prepared some milk powder, some snacks and canned food, but I don't know what else to prepare."
Shen Yuyao counted the days and realized that it was almost the beginning of the month again.
She didn't expect that Qiao An would also sign up to take turns taking care of the child.
In theory, her husband was not at home and she had not been in the hospital for a long time, so she actually did not need to register.
But when Shen Yuyao knew that she had signed up, she was also very happy for the two children.
After all, Joan has a gentle personality and will definitely be good to the two children.
The next day Shen Yuyao returned home early.
When she got home, Xiao Mei and Qiao An were already busy at her house.
Seeing her come back, Xiao Mei said with a smile in the kitchen: "Cheng Tuan went to the camp. He said he was going to take a look over there. I think he was embarrassed to stay in the room with two female comrades like us, so he ran away."
She giggled as she spoke, "I didn't expect your Cheng Tuan to look so powerful, but actually be so thin-skinned."
Qiao An was obviously not used to Xiao Mei's speaking style. She looked surprised for a moment and subconsciously turned to look at Shen Yuyao.
When he saw Shen Yuyao raised the corners of her mouth and didn't look unhappy, he pursed his lips and smiled.
Shen Yuyao put the bag back into the house and came out to help.
As she walked through the living room, she saw a large bouquet of wild flowers on the dining table, and she couldn't help but stop.
Xiao Mei was sitting near the door in the kitchen, washing oysters in a large basin. When she saw Shen Yuyao stop, she said, "That vase is a gift from Sister Feng. We picked the flowers together in the suburbs today. Doesn't it look nice?
"Ah, Sister Feng is really good at seeing things. I didn't think these flowers were that beautiful when they were blooming all over the mountains and fields. Who knew they would look so good in a vase?"
Shen Yuyao didn't expect that these two people would give her gifts, and the gifts were so pleasing to her.
She expressed her gratitude immediately.
Qiao An and Xiao Mei were naturally very happy that their kindness was appreciated.
At 5:30 in the evening, Zhao Yuanyuan and others rushed over.
