[Chapter 369 Chapter 369 Invitation]
Fortunately, Shen Yuyao acted quickly enough and finally put away the porcelain bowl before Xiaoyi.
The little fellow pounced on the spot where the porcelain bowl had been placed before, but nothing changed.
The kid was obviously a little confused.
He got up, looked around, and patted the quilt with his hands. He seemed a little confused why he didn't go back to his grandmother's house this time.
Fortunately, children's interests come and go. After Shen Yuyao took out the snacks from the space, Xiaoyi's interest was attracted by his favorite cakes.
He also put the idea of going to his grandmother's house behind him.
The next day, Xiao Mei came and knocked on the door early in the morning.
This time Shen Yuyao was finally able to open the door.
Xiao Mei looked at Shen Yuyao's face and felt relieved when she saw that she looked good.
Then he placed the small porcelain bowl he was holding on the table and said, "I rolled some noodles. You can have them for lunch. Noodles are best eaten in this weather. They are hot."
Shen Yuyao glanced at the porcelain bowl and found that it contained pure white noodles.
And the bowl is not small. These noodles should be able to use up all the white flour quota of Xiao Mei and her husband for this month.
She knew that Xiao Mei rolled it specially because she was worried that she would not have the energy to cook after she got sick, and she also wanted her to get some nutrition.
Shen Yuyao had no way to refuse, so she could only thank him and take the basin to the kitchen.
When he came out again, there were a few frozen pears in the pot, as well as some dried day lily and dried black fungus.
"Yulan's cousin works at a forest farm. I asked her to buy this for me. The dried goods at the forest farm are much better than what we buy at the market. You can take them back and make some noodles with them."
Xiao Mei knew that since Shen Yuyao had taken them out, she would never take them back, so she didn't bother to be polite with her and took the frozen pears and dried goods as well.
Xiao Mei came to see Shen Yuyao not just to deliver noodles, she had other things to do.
She said, "Yesterday afternoon, Chen Fei came back and said that Song Wenli called the team headquarters to ask if you were at home and said she wanted to come and see you."
"Why did she come to see me now? It's snowing so heavily..."
"Who said it wasn't? Fade Chen told her and said you had a cold, but Song Wenli insisted on coming and said she would come today. I guess she will be here around this afternoon."
Song Wenli is Shen Yuyao's neighbor at the tractor factory, and her husband Lao Feng is the captain of the driver team.
When Shen Yuyao and her family first moved there, the couple took great pains to help them find wood.
The wood used for the bed and benches in Dr. Gu's house was all retrieved by Captain Feng.
Shen Yuyao has always had a good relationship with their family.
The reason why she was not as close to him as Wu Yulan was mainly because Song Wenli worked in a garment factory and was the team leader of the workshop.
She was very busy at work, leaving early and returning late every day. But seeing each other less often didn't mean they got along badly, Shen Yuyao still liked Song Wenli's cheerful personality.
So, when she knew that Song Wenli was going to come to see her in the heavy snow, she felt a little worried, fearing that something had happened to her.
Because she didn't know the exact time Song Wenli would arrive, and the snow outside was already ankle-deep, it was not safe to ride a bike to pick her up, so Shen Yuyao could only wait at home.
What Shen Yuyao and Xiao Mei didn't expect was that Song Wenli arrived much earlier than they thought, and she didn't come alone, but came in a car with the director of their garment factory.
Knowing that Shen Yuyao had just caught a cold, when the guard came to call for help, it was Xiao Mei who went out to pick up the two people.
Song Wenli was still her straightforward self. As soon as she entered the room, she shouted, "Xiao Shen, I heard you caught a cold. Are you feeling better? I came here today and brought you some jujubes sent from my hometown. I tell you, these jujubes are really good, sweet and big. Eat three steamed jujubes every night, and I guarantee you'll be plump and white in a month!"
As she spoke, she placed a cloth bag she had brought with her on the table.
When several people entered the room, Shen Yuyao didn't have time to say a word because Song Wenli had already said everything.
She smiled and used a bamboo broom to help Song Wenli sweep the snow off her body, saying, "Thank you, Sister Song. I'm fine. I just caught a cold accidentally. I'm in good health."
At this time, the middle-aged female comrade on the side finally found an opportunity to interrupt and said, "It gets cold early in Ning Province, and Comrade Xiao Shen may not be used to it yet. After the winter, it will be fine next year."
Song Wenli then remembered that she hadn't introduced herself yet, so she quickly said, "Xiao Shen, let me introduce you. This is the director of our garment factory, Liu Aili."
Then she looked at Director Liu: "This is the Xiao Shen I told you about. The skirts and tweed coats that the female workers in the tractor factory wore before were all designed with her help."
Song Wenli knew that Shen Yuyao was helping people cut clothes at home, but obviously she didn't tell Director Liu much.
Here I just help you think of styles.
Shen Yuyao understood as soon as she heard it. The two people came today for the clothing styles she had made before.
Director Liu is also a straightforward person.
After Song Wenli’s introduction, she got straight to the point.
She said: "Comrade Xiao Shen, you may not know that you are now very famous in Anhuai. The female comrades in Anhuai are proud to own a piece of clothing designed by you."
Although Shen Yuyao knew that this person came for the clothes she designed, she didn't know what she really meant.
Hearing her say that, I could only laugh and say, "Director Liu, you are too polite. I used to work at the cloth counter in a department store, and one of our service projects was to design and tailor clothes for the people.
After I joined the army, I was afraid that I would forget this skill, so I helped the comrades around me to come up with some designs. This can be regarded as another way to serve the people. "
Shen Yuyao would never leave anyone any room for words.
What if this person turns around and accuses me of being vain, not living a simple life, etc., then I would be wrongly killed and no one would blame me.
After all, it was the first time for everyone to meet and they were not familiar with each other at all.
When Director Liu heard Shen Yuyao say that she used to work in a department store and at the cloth counter, he immediately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
At the same time he nodded appreciatively.
Afterwards, she finally told the main purpose of her and Song Wenli's trip.
She said, "Comrade Xiao Shen, we came here this time to invite you to come out. You may not know that the Ministry of Industry issued a notice before, saying that under the premise of maintaining hardship and simplicity, the people should be allowed to dress better and let a hundred flowers bloom.
So our clothing factory would like to invite you to join our design department and be responsible for clothing design work.
Don't worry, you will be converted to a regular employee as soon as you enter the factory, and your salary will be increased appropriately according to your technical skills!"
