Chapter 1190 1190. Mao Li’s intention
"Wow…"
Song Tan couldn’t help but clicked her tongue as she held her mobile phone: “Isn’t their efficiency a bit too high?”
Not only is he efficient, but he is also concise and to the point. He doesn’t even have questions or rebuttals. He is too much of a tool!
Zhang Yanping came over and said, "Pull me into the group, and I can arrange food and lodging later."
As soon as Song Tan pulled the person in, he saw that the person named [Chen Yuan] had already replied:
【Chen Yuan: I can now buy tickets for the eighth day of the first lunar month, which is February 8th. If everything goes well, I can arrive at work before 5 pm】
【Zhu Xinyu: I can currently buy a car here on the afternoon of February 8th, and it is expected to arrive on the 9th】
【…】
Zhang Yanping was stunned when he saw everyone announcing their arrival time as soon as he entered the group.
Hooking Song Tan's mobile phone and scrolling through the chat history, he couldn't help but be speechless: "Are you not going to miss the Spring Festival? It's so difficult to buy New Year's tickets, and you still ask people to try to arrive on the same day..."
Forehead…
Song Tan really doesn’t know much about Spring Festival travel.
“But on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, many people have already gone to work, so tickets should be relatively easy to buy.”
“It’s relatively easy to buy, but we’re all far and wide, and some people have to change trains...forget it, I’ll do it!”
He re-edited the message:
Hello everyone, I am Zhang Yanping, who is responsible for arranging everyone's life. I just asked my boss that I can report in within five days from 2.6 to 2.10. The schedule does not need to be so urgent. 】
As soon as he said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s not impossible if you want to arrive on the same day during the Spring Festival, but it’s just a little troublesome for them to buy tickets at the last minute.
But all workers can arrive at work on time. There is no reason why they can't. After thinking about it now, in the end, they should concentrate their time on 2.9 as much as possible.
Chen Yuan, as the first person to respond, was quickly contacted privately—
【If someone arrives early, it is recommended that you wait in the hotel for a while and inquire about the working environment. 】
【OK, let's do it】
…
The old Song family is under great pressure to decide on the employment plan for next year, and in downtown Yuncheng, the eldest aunt's family is also very happy.
During the New Year, it was rare that my aunt was so cruel that she stewed the pork she brought back from Song Tan's house into a pot of stew. At this moment, it was lit under the small stove, and the pot was churning with small bubbles. Cabbage, tofu, and various ingredients were mixed with the meat. The aroma lingers in the house...
The eldest uncle Zhu Jun and his son Zhu Lingqi held their mobile phones and didn't even think about watching videos. They just kept looking towards the kitchen.
After a while, Song Hongmei finally said: "The food is ready."
The father and son jumped up from the sofa, and then quickly rushed to the kitchen to fill the rice and serve the dishes. The aunt couldn't help but be speechless:
"This is not the first time I have eaten this meat. You see you are in a hurry..."
I also eat this meat every now and then, and now half of it is left in the refrigerator...
That's right, half a month has passed, and half of the few kilograms of meat is still left. So even though the aunt was muttering like this, as soon as she sat down, her first chopsticks were aimed at the pork. While eating, he sighed:
“It’s a festival, but it’s not possible. The food expenses have suddenly increased a lot.”
The eldest uncle also nodded sadly: "Everyone is taking advantage of this time to prepare New Year's goods. The supermarket is so busy that it delays closing for half an hour every night. It is so busy that health tea is not given at the door."
Their teapot has not been filled with tea for several days.
It was his son Zhu Lingqi who suddenly spoke: "Mom, I met my aunt on the way to get off work. She said she wanted to introduce me to a partner. I said no, and she also said she would come and talk to you in the evening."
“Come and talk to me?” Song Hongmei was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: “What do you have to say to me? If you have something suitable, just talk about it.”
But the eldest uncle said calmly: "Don't worry, our family has a tradition of diligence and frugality. Many little girls can't do this now. If you don't agree on the three views, you will easily have conflicts in the future."
“Son, please observe more.”
Zhu Lingqi nodded seriously: "There is a good girl in our work unit. I went there early at noon several times and saw her bringing her own food. The dishes were quite simple. I wish she had cabbage and tofu every day."
“Okay!” The eldest uncle nodded: “That’s right, keep more observations!”
As he was talking, his cell phone rang suddenly. My aunt took it to look at and couldn't help but make a "beep" sound:
“She is really your aunt! What’s going on with them? She seems to be pretending to be noble every day. Last time Tantan was so choked that she didn’t even talk to me anymore. Today’s contact is cold again..."
The aunt said cautiously: "Son, let me tell you, just look at your eldest cousin and your eldest uncle and you will know that your eldest aunt has very bad taste. You must not listen to anyone she introduces."
Zhu Lingqi deeply believed this.
At this time, the aunt also answered the phone.
“Sister-in-law, what’s the matter?”
A quarrel is a quarrel, and if the quarrel is not complete, everyone has to maintain a face-saving relationship.
Auntie is just chatting while eating.
Mao Li's expression was not awkward at all. On the contrary, it was as if there had never been any estrangement. She said to her enthusiastically: "Ling Qi will tell you when he goes back? You are such a young man, and you don't care about being parents." Son's heart...No, I know a little girl who is worthy of him."
"Oh." The aunt was not very interested: "We are not in a hurry..."
“Look at this mother-in-law, how old is he? If you date your partner for two years and then get married, you’ll be 30 in the blink of an eye.”
“Let me tell you, I invited the little girl to be a tutor for our Ziyi. You know the popular private tutors in English nowadays..."
"College student! There is a job in sight. I heard that some relatives have married into our hometown village... She asked me how life is in the village before. How long have you said we haven't seen the old man? I How do you know?"
Auntie had been listening silently, and it was only then that she finally noticed Mao Li’s theme tonight:
"By the way, Hongmei, how many times do you plan to return to your hometown for the first time during the Chinese New Year? Your brother can't let go of his parents. No, he spent thousands of dollars to buy a TV for the old man, and we just happened to set off together - Hongmei? Hongmei? "
Auntie frowned and her cell phone clicked on the table. It took a while before she picked it up:
“Sister-in-law, I’m sorry, what did you just say? Oh, look at me, it took me a long time to buy this alcohol stove. I just turned off the fire and didn’t turn it off...The alcohol it burned was alcohol!”
"The price of a box of alcohol has increased a lot now. I struggled for a while before turning off the door - what did you just say? My brother is going to buy appliances for the old man?"
“Okay, I’ll just say that I spent more than 20,000 yuan on home appliances and I feel a little distressed. I just gave the money to me and treated it as half for each of us, brother and sister.”
Update 2 is here.
