Chapter 391 Considering Lifelong Events
His pretended sad expression and funny tone of voice made him look like a clown performing on stage.
He Yushui and Zhao Shuzhuo were stunned at first, and then burst into laughter at Wang Jianguo's appearance.
Zhao Shuzhuo laughed so hard that tears almost came out. He wiped his eyes with his hands and pointed at Wang Jianguo and said:
"Jianguo, please stop talking nonsense here. It would be a shame if you didn't go to sing with your acting skills."
He Yushui laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her back. She covered her stomach with her hands and said intermittently:
"Brother Jianguo, you are so funny. I was just joking."
After laughing, the three people's expressions gradually returned to calm, and they naturally turned the topic back to the management of the supply and marketing cooperative.
They discussed everything from the layout of the goods to the scheduling of staff.
From customer service standards to account management details, no link is missed.
Wang Jianguo also stopped joking and shared his thoughts and insights seriously, while Zhao Shuzhuo supplemented and improved them from time to time.
He Yushui also actively participated in it and put forward some of his own ideas and suggestions.
Before we knew it, the night had deepened, and this tiring yet extremely fulfilling day came to a close quietly amidst the warm and lively discussions.
The next morning, the autumn atmosphere in the northeast had been replaced by a biting cold. In the yard, the ground seemed to be quietly sprinkled with a thin layer of silver sand by nature.
The white frost sparkled with cold light in the morning light, as if telling the public that winter was coming.
Wang Jianguo, Zhao Shuzhuo and He Yushui all understood clearly that there were many matters that needed to be dealt with today and there was no room for delay or laziness.
Although the cold air was like sharp needles, trying to penetrate their clothes and pierce their skin, the three of them were not afraid at all. They got up early and started to work.
Inside the house, He Yushui was busy at the stove skillfully. The porridge in the pot was bubbling with steam. The mist rose slowly, blurring a small piece of glass on the window.
She stirred the porridge gently with a spoon from time to time to make sure the bottom was not sticky, then turned around to cut pickles, preparing a simple breakfast that could dispel the cold.
In the yard, Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo were in agile postures, and the axes in their hands drew powerful arcs in the air.
With crisp sounds, the firewood was split one by one under their efforts. The dry firewood gradually piled up into a small hill on the ground.
This is the necessary reserve they made for the coming cold winter. As Wang Jianguo raised and lowered the axe in his hand, he turned to Zhao Shuzhuo and said:
"Brother Zhao, winter is coming soon. It's so icy and snowy here that we can't build a house."
"I guess this winter, and even during the New Year, Yu Shui and I will have to bother you at your house."
"When the weather warms up next spring, I will quickly build the new house, and then I won't cause you any more trouble."
His voice was particularly clear in the cold air, and the white breath he exhaled floated in the air along with his words.
Zhao Shuzhuo, who was bending over to pick up firewood, heard Wang Jianguo's words and slowly stood up with a few pieces of firewood in his hands.
He raised his head slightly, with a hint of feigned anger and genuine friendship in his eyes, and said to Wang Jianguo:
"Jianguo, you are being too polite. What are you saying? I am very happy that you and Yushui can live here with me. I am so happy."
"To be honest, I really hope you don't build a house and just live with me from now on."
"It's great that we can work together on weekdays and chat in our spare time, and take care of each other. Otherwise, life would be so lonely, and I would be so alone."
Wang Jianguo looked at Zhao Shuzhuo's sincere expression, knowing that every word he said was from the heart, so he smiled warmly and responded jokingly:
"Haha, Brother Zhao, you say that now, but when you find someone you like and marry a new sister-in-law, you won't think so anymore."
"By then, you will surely want to have a quiet world for the two of you, and you won't want us to disturb you here."
When Zhao Shuzhuo heard this, he immediately realized that Wang Jianguo was joking with him. Not to be outdone, he followed up the conversation and joked:
"Oh, really? You know what, I've never experienced a life of two people. Now that you mention it, it seems pretty good."
"Then I have to work harder. I have to ask the aunties and ladies in the village to help me keep an eye on them and find a suitable one for me."
After saying this, he couldn't help but burst into laughter at the funny conversation, and his laughter echoed in the cold yard.
At this time, He Yushui came out of the kitchen. She gently smoothed the hair on her forehead that was a little messy due to the heat.
With his head tilted, his eyes filled with doubt and anger, he said to the two people who were chatting and laughing:
"What are you two grinning about here? It's so early in the morning, and you don't even look hungry. The meal is ready."
"Stop making trouble, wash your hands and eat. We still have a lot of things to do after eating."
Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo stopped what they were doing when they heard He Yushui's clear call.
They placed the axe against the wall, brushed off the sawdust and dust on their bodies, and walked into the house together.
The cold air made their cheeks slightly red and their hands a little numb. As soon as they entered the house, warmth hit them in the face, in stark contrast to the cold outside.
They walked to the basin of water. Wang Jianguo put his hand into the water first. The temperature of the water made him shiver.
After getting used to it, he began to scrub carefully, and after washing, he took a towel to wipe it clean. Zhao Shuzhuo also washed his hands, and the two of them sat down at the dining table.
The food on the table exuded an enticing aroma, especially the big bowl of hot soup, the steam rising in the air.
Zhao Shuzhuo picked up the soup bowl, gently blew away the hot steam on the surface, took a small sip, and the hot soup slid down his throat. A warm current instantly spread throughout his body.
He sighed with satisfaction and said to He Yushui:
"Rainwater, it's so cold today. Drinking this hot soup makes me feel comfortable and warm from the inside out."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you very much. Your cooking skills are getting better and better."
"Alas, when you move away, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink such delicious soup or taste your cooking skills anymore."
His words were full of reluctance and emotion.
He Yushui felt a little embarrassed by Zhao Shuzhuo's praise, and a blush appeared on her face. She smiled and responded:
"Brother Zhao, please don't say that. If you want to drink hot soup and taste delicious food, then hurry up and marry a sister-in-law."
"Then let your sister-in-law cook for you every day. It will definitely be better than what I cook."
