On the seventh day of the first lunar month, everyone started working.
When Dadan and Erdan woke up, they found a piece of paper taped to the living room door. It told them to make their own breakfast or go out to buy it, and the money was on the living room table. Of course, she also reminded them of the homework she assigned them yesterday.
After reading it, the two looked at each other.
Dadan spoke first, "After dinner, do your homework. Only after you finish it can you go out to play."
Erdan remained silent. Seeing his brother remained unmoved, he pouted and said, "Can't we just play first? I guess no one will come out to play after I finish the homework Mom assigned me."
It's so cold today, we must go out and play when it's warmer.
The warmest hours are from 10 to 3, and it's already 10 now...
"How long do you think it will take you to write this? If you go out to play, can you finish it before 6:30?" Dadan asked him calmly.
Erdan gave up, "Okay, okay, can't I just write first and play later?"
Alas, who would have thought that homework would fall from the sky?

Su Qinghu went to bed early yesterday and got up not too late, so she arrived half an hour earlier than her usual working hours.
Sister Li came earlier than her.
Others really had a festive atmosphere during the New Year, but she didn't. She didn't have many people at home; her husband and children had all passed away during difficult times, leaving her alone. She felt it was better not to celebrate the New Year at all.
So, when the unit wanted her to be on duty, she had no complaints and took the job directly.
"Sister Li, thank you for your hard work!" As soon as Su Qinghu entered the office, he saw Sister Li and handed her a big box.
Sister Li and Su Qinghu got along well, so she didn't bother being polite with her. She took the bag, which was heavier than she'd imagined. "What is it?"
"Various meatballs made at home, some dried vegetables, and some meat sauce I made." Su Qinghu blinked, "I'm only giving them to you, Yuan Hang, and the director."
Sister Li smiled and said, "I know, I know. I will definitely not tell anyone."
After saying that, he joked, "When you send it to the director later, you won't say the same thing, right?"
Su Qinghu raised his eyebrows, and the meaning was very clear.
Then he asked, "Is the director here too?"
"Yeah. It's in the office." Sister Li stood up. "This thing is too conspicuous. I have to take it home first."
She had a bicycle and could ride fast enough to be back almost at the start of the usual meeting.
"Remember to tell the director for me." After saying that, Sister Li rushed out like the wind.
Su Qinghu smiled, carried another bag to the director's office, knocked on the door, went in, and put the things directly on the table, "Happy New Year, Director."
The director pretended to be righteous: "I don't accept gifts."
"There's also a box of tea inside." Su Qinghu's eyes curved, "My family got it."
The director said: "Teacher Sun and I were classmates, and you are his students. So, we are from the same school. So, you are welcome."
Su Qinghu smiled, "They are all home-cooked things. If you are a busy person like you and don't have time to eat properly, you can use hot water or ask the canteen chef to cook a bowl of meatballs for you. It's very convenient and it will keep you warm when you eat it."
She pointed to the bag.
"Or the three of us?" the director asked with a smile.
He knew Su Qinghu's personality very well. When people gave him gifts, it was just gifts, without any interest or request for favors mixed in, which made people feel very comfortable.
Su Qinghu nodded, "You are truly wise and brave."
The director didn't fall for her charm and said with a smile, "Congratulations, you are a perfect match."
On the wedding day, the man's eyes hardly ever left her. It seemed that he was completely attracted to her.
But it's normal. Anyone would like a lesbian like Xiao Su after spending some time with her.
Su Qinghu smiled shyly twice, "Then Director, please go ahead and do your work. I'll go out and see if Yuan Hang is here."
As soon as I came out of the director's office, I met Yuan Hang.
Yuan Hang: "The things on your desk were left for me, right? I took them away myself."
Su Qinghu: "Where did you take it?"
"Where else could it be? In my car." Yuan Hang had just returned from a trip abroad, and instead of being in high spirits, he had two panda eyes. "After get off work today, don't run so fast. I'll take you home and bring the oven and camera home with me."
Hearing him say this, Su Qinghu was stunned for a moment.
She had asked Cheng Qian to bring two cameras before, one for her parents-in-law and one for the children to tinker with. She already had one, so who should she give the extra one to?
For display?
It's not impossible, but I'm not sure if digital products can be sent to them...
Su Qinghu touched her chin. "Hmm, I'll write to him and ask him when I get back. If it's okay, I'll send it to him. If not, I'll keep it for myself." Should she also give the original one to the child?
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt guilty.
The old ones, one new and one old, I wonder how the two kids will divide them up...
But in the end, she wasn't the one having a headache!
After figuring it out, Su Qinghu nodded, "Okay."
Yuan Hang looked at Su Qinghu with a smile, "Then... can you bring me some of the food baked in the oven? Of course, if you need any ingredients, you can tell me and I'll get them."
"Hmm?" Su Qinghu stared at him. "Why do I feel like you should have brought back a lot of good things?"
Yuan Hang smiled reservedly, "It's not that much, but there's still some for you."
I brought back some cheese, butter, and some spices unique to that place.
