Chapter 1037 Goodbye Familiar Faces
Wang Xiu smiled brightly and nodded quickly.
Xu Xiangxiang glanced around blankly, as if she didn't quite understand what "Tiananmen" was.
Wang Xiu brought toiletries, while Lu Miao only bought Xu Xiangxiang toothpaste, toothbrush, and washing cup.
Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang didn't have drinking cups, so Lu Miao bought one for each.
I only saw people selling lamp grass mats in the department store. I had no choice, so I had to buy this one.
These things are considered initial funding.
If it is used up later, or needs to be replaced due to wear and tear, Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang will need to use their wages to buy it.
After buying these trivial items, Lu Miao went to the cake shop and gave the date to order a cake.
The offices and bureaus of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and the Jingbei Hotel, which receives foreign diplomats, are both nearby.
There are more foreign faces here, so things related to "Western style" are not necessarily authentic, but more presentable than in other places.
Lu Miao said that she wanted to order a birthday cake, and the chef in the store also brought out some photos and said that she could choose a pattern from them.
At this time, cakes are considered luxury goods, and if you choose the decoration separately, you will need to pay separate craftsmanship fees.
Lu Miao looked at a few photos and asked:
"Are all the tricks here? Only one level?"
The cake shop chef looked at her in surprise and said with a smile:
"The cake is all one layer, so many tricks aren't enough?"
Lu Miao shook her head and said "no", and she seemed to understand.
It seems that there are no double or multi-layered cakes at this time.
She didn't ask how much the processing fee would be, and directly chose the most complicated mounting pattern:
"I want something like this. What's the largest size you can make here?"
"The maximum size can be fourteen inches."
"Then I want a fourteen-inch one. Come and get it on the morning of the 12th."
The cake shop chef was surprised:
"Comrade, a fourteen-inch cake is not small! The price is not cheap either. The pattern you chose costs twenty-two yuan."
As he spoke, the cake shop master clicked on the simple mold for the glass cabinet and said:
"Generally, if the family is in good condition, children will choose this eight-inch size for birthdays. The eight-inch size can also be made in the pattern you choose."
Lu Miao smiled and shook her head:
"It's okay, I just want a fourteen-inch one. Please help me write a few words on the cake when the time comes."
"This... well, you write the content here."
Lu Miao nodded and took the paper and pen handed over by the cake shop master.
When she was communicating with the cake shop master, Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang were watching beside her, making large and small bags.
When they heard that a cake cost twenty-two yuan, Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang were astonished.
Later, Lu Miao would pay the deposit, and Datong Group would give it as promised.
Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang looked at each other and silently chose not to speak.
After all the business was done, Lu Miao would not treat him badly, and exchanged a dime for three popsicles.
She put her palms together to fan a small breeze, took Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang to eat in a cool place, and finished a bottle of soda outside before saying she wanted to go home.
Lu Miao spends money lavishly. Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang were a little frightened at first, so they didn't dare to talk nonsense.
Seeing her childlike contrast later, Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say at all.
Lu Miao has always been casual and does whatever she wants.
She didn't care much about what Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang thought.
In short, the things that needed to be done were done, and it was a great feeling. Lu Miao didn't miss it at all, and took the lead to go home.
It was just a coincidence.
Her eyesight was surprisingly good this time.
When three people were crossing the road and waiting for a traffic light, a Hongqi car drove past slowly on the side of the road.
Lu Miao saw a familiar face inside at a glance.
Lu Miao's eyes followed the Hongqi car just now.
The car stopped in front of the building of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. Soon someone came forward to open the door.
Min Qiaoqiao, dressed in a fashionable dress, got out of the car and entered the Ministry of Foreign Trade Bureau like a star...
Is this because Guoyingshe can no longer survive and has changed its career to foreign trade?
A trace of suspicion flashed in Lu Miao's heart.
It happened that the red light on the opposite side briefly turned to yellow, and then quickly turned to green again.
Wang Xiu reminded her:
"Sister Lu, the light is green."
"Yeah."
Lu Miao responded, withdrew his gaze and slowly followed the crowd across the road.
When they got home, Wang Xiu and the others were asked to clean up the house.
Lu Miao went to the inner courtyard first.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
In the afternoon, Tang Mei took Wang Xiu and Xu Xiangxiang to get familiar with the environment, and introduced the tastes of everyone in the family.
The phone at home was connected, and Lu Miao made a shopping list for Fu Jingyou's housewarming party.
When Fu Jingyou went out to buy things, she called her hometown county at home.
The first is, as mentioned before, tell Hu Zhiyuan about his current work situation.
The second is for the cactus.
Hu Zhiyuan was as happy as anything when he heard that she had resumed her position as director.
Later I heard that she wanted a cactus. Although he didn't understand it, after hanging up the phone, Hu Zhiyuan tried his best to get it.
During this period, I also went to Dahe Village to announce the good news.
When He Hongjin heard the news, he was happy and relieved at first, and then asked about Fu Jingyou's work situation.
Hu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, scratched the back of his head and said:
"Oh, I was so happy that I forgot to ask! Uncle He, I will definitely ask you in detail next time I get a call!"
He Hongjin's black face wrinkled with worry, he pulled Hu Zhiyuan and asked in disbelief:
"Are you telling the truth or a lie? It doesn't matter if he hasn't found anything yet. Is there anything else he's hiding from me?"
Hu Zhiyuan said quickly:
"Oh uncle, I really forgot to ask!"
One was happy, and the other was because I was thinking about the cactus.
Thinking of cactus, Hu Zhiyuan quickly said:
"Uncle, speaking of my coming here, I have something else to do. Sister Xiaobao said that she wanted to get some cacti to send to her. I think I need to get a box to put those things in... It's hard to get wooden boards in the county. Look at you. Can you make me a box?”
He Hongjin also wondered what Lu Miao wanted to do with the cactus, but he nodded his head first:
"Yes, I can do it. How big of a box do I need?"
"Uh...how many, how big?"
Hu Zhiyuan was confused for a while and then said uncertainly:
"Just, just try to make it as big as possible, according to the maximum postal specifications!"
"Okay!"
He Hongjin touched the back of his head, feeling like he was counting.
With such an interruption, He Hongjin forgot the worries he had just had.
Hu Zhiyuan said he wanted to get a sack to get some cactus, so he and Chen Guifen hurried into the house to look for it.
Let’s talk about the Fu family in Beijing.
Lu Miao went for a walk to pick up her children in the afternoon, and told them on the way back.
We will also celebrate their birthdays during the housewarming party at home in two days.
Mingyi just asked his grandma about his birthday two days ago, and he has been counting the days these days.
After hearing what his mother said, Mingyi immediately said:
"Mom, my sister's and my birthdays are on August 16th, not the 12th."
Mingxia nodded and looked at her mother.
