Mother Su saw Jiang Ziwen frowning and asked, "Manager Jiang, what’s wrong?"
After coming back to his senses, Jiang Ziwen shook his head and said, "It’s nothing. Auntie, come to me if you need anything. I just remembered that I still have something to deal with, so I will leave first."
Mother Su was taken aback and said, "Manager Jiang, you haven’t finished eating yet."
"I will pack it up and eat later," Jiang Ziwen said with a smile, and then left in a hurry.
Looking at his back, Mother Su was a little confused about his sudden change of attitude.
After he left, several workers and staff members saw that Mother Su had a good relationship with the manager, so they came over and sat next to her.
Although she knew that the enthusiasm of these people towards her was only because of Jiang Ziwen, she was still happy. This was the first time she was treated warmly by other women.
At the same time, in Xie village, a postman knocked on the door of Li Chenmo’s house, "Brother Li, are you at home?"
Inside the house, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu had finished collecting the vegetables and were cleaning the vegetable garden.
"Wife, I’m going to see who is here," Li Chenmo said.
Not long after, he opened the door and saw Jiang Zehui smiling at him. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Comrade Jiang, what brought you here today? Please come in," he said.
"Brother Li, I have a package for you. I still have a lot of work to do, so I won’t stay. I will come to see you another day," Jiang Zehui said as he handed the package to Li Chenmo.
Li Chenmo took the package and said, "Then, please wait a moment. I will get you some water."
This time, Jiang Zehui did not refuse and said, "Thank you, Brother Li."
Lu Jueyu saw her husband carrying a package to the living room and returning with a glass of water. She saw the postman drink the water and leave.
When her husband closed the door and walked to her, she asked, "Husband, who sent the package?"
"It’s a package from the capital," Li Chenmo said.
"Is it from Xiao Yiqing?" Lu Jueyu asked in surprise.
"Mhmm. Wife, let’s take a break and open the package first," he said.
After the two of them washed off the dirt on their bodies, they went to the living room. Li Chenmo poured a cup of hot tea for his wife while she opened the package.
Opening the package, Lu Jueyu saw an envelope and a floral dress. In this day and age, dresses were not that common. To own a piece of dress, they need to sew it themselves or buy it at a high price in a department store.
Although the design is old-fashioned, it is the latest design of this era. Looking at this dress, Lu Jueyu said, "The style of this dress is very suitable for Sister Liu Hua. Husband, what do you think?"
After Lu Jueyu read the letter, she folded it and put it back in the envelope.
Li Chenmo noticed the longing expression on his wife’s face and said, "Wife, if you want to go to the capital, we can wait until after the summer harvest."
Lu Jueyu shook her head and said, "It’s too troublesome to travel now. Let’s wait a few years before visiting her."
After hearing her words, Li Chenmo’s eyes flickered for a moment and then returned to normal.
He knew that his wife was waiting for economic reforms before going to the capital. By then, it will be much more convenient to travel, and they can seize the opportunity to start a business.
In the county town’s hospital, Li Shu finally had the strength to get out of bed. At this time, she was walking slowly in the hospital garden with Song Yan holding her arm.
"Walk slowly, let’s take a rest when you get tired," Song Yan said softly.
A thin layer of sweat broke out on Li Shu’s forehead. She shook her head and said breathlessly, "Brother Yan, I’m fine."
She didn’t want to lie limply on the bed. She wanted to get better as soon as possible. So, she should work hard.
Song Yan saw her stubbornness and didn’t say anything more. He helped her to walk for another round before saying, "Okay, you should rest first."
This time, Li Shu didn’t insist anymore because she felt a throbbing pain in her chest. When she sat back in the wheelchair, Song Yan squatted in front of her and wiped her sweat with his handkerchief.
