Chapter 735 Lu Xiaobao, awesome
Fu Jingyou took the money and bought half a catty of fried peanuts, plus two bottles of Laobaigan.
In the evening, I sat down with some seniors in a workshop and chatted for two hours before going back.
I’m going to be really busy for a while.
Children start school early and will be sent to school in early September.
Especially Shi An.
Schools in the city are more particular, and good schools are even more particular.
I won’t go into the various written procedures for the Primary School Affiliated to Peking University.
Before the official start of school, you have to take people there for a basic physical examination, measurements, and customization of school uniforms and red scarves.
Fu Jingyou has been busy for a few days and has basically finished taking care of the children's affairs. Several universities in northern Beijing are about to start school one after another.
On the Guoyingshe side, Lu Miao's help this time has come to an end.
I said hello to Teacher Tan and took two days off in advance to prepare for the start of school.
……
The canvas bag that was used as a book bag has been used for too long, and the corners have been worn out and have small holes.
Lu Miao chose a casual-style linen fabric and made it again.
The side of the strap of the simple handbag is also decorated with square light silk fabric and tied with a unique flower.
If necessary, it can be taken off and used as a veil.
After finishing these, Lu Miao picked up the high handbag and looked at it.
Either minimalist or extremely luxurious.
That’s pretty good.
She nodded slightly with satisfaction and put away the large piece of fabric.
On the table of the sewing machine, there are still two pieces of thin scraps of fabric left, about fifteen to eighteen centimeters long and two fingers wide.
It’s a pity that I can’t do anything, lose it or use it as a rope tie.
Lu Miao went back to the house and took out several rolls of lace of different widths.
She held the lace edge and the cloth strips, thinking about what she could do.
After Tang Mei finished her work outside, she came in with a cattail leaf fan and sat next to her to fan herself:
"Oh, it's been almost a month since the beginning of autumn, and it hasn't cooled down yet?"
< br>"It should be almost done. Let's wait until the sun takes a break before we start working again." What kind of tan are they doing..."
"What kind of work is that? It's just a few diapers for the child. It's just a good time to dry them in the sun."
Tang Mei looked at her with a smile. Shaking his head, he changed his mind and mentioned another topic:
"Xiao Xie is getting married soon, how can I follow the etiquette?"
"Just so casual. Their family was as big as the Ling family before."
I thought Tang Mei was afraid of the two. The family relationship is very close, it would be shameful to be away from him, Lu Miao Added:
"Fifty yuan is not too much. How many people can't make that much money in a month? Brother You's internship salary is only 20 yuan."
Tang Mei waved her hand. , "This is not a small gift."
The two families are impartial, and Tang Mei actually thinks so.
"Wen Pei came over and asked about this. She said she was afraid that it would look bad if she didn't follow it too much. She asked how much you would take and she would consider it for reference."
"Don't you know that I follow it too much? How much?”
“Yes.”
Tang Mei nodded and said:
"What I told her was also fifty dollars. Aren't I afraid that if you want to add more or deduct some, it would make trouble with her later? Just ask."
If you say that the gift is fifty yuan, and then it exceeds fifty yuan, wouldn't that cause people to misunderstand and think that you are deliberately trying to overwhelm others?
From another perspective, if it is less than fifty yuan, it will be difficult to write.
What if someone interprets it as a trick to trick them into spending more money?
Lu Miao paused and looked at Tang Mei, obviously thinking of these ideas.
"You can use more or less gifts depending on your personal situation. Real affection cannot be measured by money. There is nothing good to refer to... If someone asks you about this in the future, just say you don't know. If you insist on asking, just ask Let them ask me face to face.”
It’s easy to make mistakes no matter how you answer this question.
Meeting someone who has a lot of thoughts, the amount is slightly larger. I’m sure people will be suspicious of his family background. It depends on the individual and the situation between the two families. It's up to you. Is there anything you can refer to?
Tang Mei nodded with a "hmm" sound.
Lu Miao doesn't like others meddling in her affairs, and she knows that.
It was just because Liu Wenpei was the new wife that she said such a thing.
Now that I think about it.
The Ling family's situation is different from theirs.
As for the ceremony, Liu Wenpei had to make up her mind. It was time for Liu Wenpei to go back and ask her parents-in-law.
Although the old couple of the Ling family are not here, they are not far away.
Tang Mei nodded as she thought about it, her idea of not interfering in other things becoming more and more determined.
Lu Miao said a smart "hmm" and suddenly had an idea.
Trim the raw edges of the fabric strip, and then cut a piece of natural lace of a similar color to align with the fabric strip.
Lu Miao buried her head in the sewing machine, and soon a delicate and unique lace headband appeared in its entirety.
Without thinking too hard, some previously unused scrap materials were found again, and new models were also available.
Very good!
Lu Miao curled her eyes with satisfaction, rustled the lace and continued to make the next hair tie.
Thinking of something, she tilted her head and asked:
"When did Liu Wenpei come to you to ask about the courtesy? It seems that I haven't seen her coming over recently?"
< br>
"How did she come here? It was Meizi who helped look after the children two days ago. I bumped into her when I was going out to buy groceries. She just started chatting. She hasn't come here much recently."
"Oh... "
Lu Miao responded thoughtfully.
The idea faltered for a moment, but he quickly ignored it and continued to tinker with his head.
It always feels weird, but I can’t figure out why.
Maybe she was overthinking...
After all, didn’t Liu Wenpei find a job in the cafeteria of Renmin University?
Maybe they are just busy?
Shaking his head, Lu Miao didn't take the matter too seriously.
……
Let’s talk about what happens after college starts.
Lu Miao is the king right after school starts.
After the Chinese version of the famous American novel "The Storm of War", which she translated before, was printed and put on the shelves by the publishing house, the editor Xu Hongmei sent her the genuine sample book.
But the thing was not sent to her home. It was sent to Peking University. The principal handed it to a professional tutor, who then passed it on to her.
Originally I didn’t understand why we had to go around in such a big circle.
It wasn't until Chen Rivet praised her on the campus radio that she realized that this was also a sign of honor and ability.
It will be included in the school's personal grades and achievement book.
Xu Hongmei probably guessed that she didn't understand, so she sent it directly to the school, and it was done in one step.
The Chinese version of "The Storm of War" is divided into upper and lower volumes, with a total of two thick volumes.
Students often ask Lu Miao to borrow them to read.
Some people watch the content, and some watch the excitement.
But no one feels bad about the obvious vertical layout on the book cover: "Translator: Lu Miao".
This is not a three- to five-page draft paper, but two real books!
It’s not like I haven’t seen Lu Miao translating during her lunch break.
But she was too busy before and no one took it to heart.
Now looking at the two typeset and printed physical books, the impact is too strong.
Everyone in the sophomore English class 1 seemed to have just woken up, and they all came up with the idea of "how did she do it?"
