It is worth mentioning that Song Lan also bought cashmere scarves for her family in Shisong Village, and planned to give them to her family when she returns home on Sunday.

Of course, there was one person Song Lan had not forgotten, and that was Fu Wenhan.

"Comrade Song, thank you for your expense. The color of this scarf is very nice, but I cannot accept it!"

Wu Dong pushed the cashmere scarf on the coffee table in front of him towards Song Lan. It was not that he was ungrateful, but there were rules and he could not make any mistakes!

"Take it. Song Lan has already bought it and is giving it to you. If you refuse it like this, you are obviously not giving her face."

The cashmere scarf was rolled up and wrapped in kraft paper. The one Song Lan gave to Wu Dong was grey. At this moment, Qin Yanzheng looked at the scarf and then at Wu Dong. He said, "Thank you for taking care of me for so long. If you don't accept the scarf, I will contact my boss..."

Although he didn't know what Qin Yanzheng would say next, Wu Dong knew that if he insisted on refusing to accept it, he would probably fail to complete the task and be transferred away from here.

If this is true, it is really shameful for him!

After all, he had completed every mission he had ever undertaken successfully, so he couldn't fail in this mission.

"Okay, I'll take it. Thank you, Comrade Song! And thank you, Comrade Qin!"

Wu Dong reached out and picked up the cashmere scarf Song Lan had given him on the coffee table. He stood up and said, "I'll go get Comrade Qin some water to soak his feet."

"Comrade Wu, go wash up, I'll do it."

Song Lan stood up as he spoke and quickly disappeared out the living room door.

The next day.

Song Lan's family, big and small, had breakfast, and then went to work or school. When they got off work at noon, except for Qin Yanzheng and Wu Dong who had not returned, Song Lan picked up the two little ones from kindergarten and entered the house almost at the same time as Qin Boyan and his sister.

"Sister-in-law."

"Ok?"

In the kitchen, Qin Yaxin was sitting in front of the stove and making a fire. Suddenly, she called Song Lan, and Song Lan paused while cutting noodles, looked at Qin Yaxin, and responded with a smile.

"There seems to be someone in the Cui family's yard next door."

After Zheng Laidie's family moved into the slum, the yard next to Song Lan's house became vacant. Well, it would be better to say that the new owner had not yet moved in, rather than saying it was vacant. However, just this afternoon, the new tenants moved in.

"What seems?"

Qin Boyan walked into the kitchen and leaned against the door frame and said, "That means there is a new resident in the yard next door."

Song Lan nodded in agreement: "It is indeed a new family of four. I took Xiaowu and Xiaoliu into the courtyard and saw the hostess next door walking out of the living room. She took the initiative to greet me, and I exchanged a few words out of politeness.

I heard from them that their family came from Beijing, and the couple now work in a machinery factory. They have a son and a daughter, the son is fifteen and the daughter is seventeen. They came here with them this time, and they also said that they would go to the town middle school in the afternoon to handle the admission procedures for them. "

"What do you think of that family's character, sister-in-law?"

Qin Yaxin asked.

"I don't know."

Song Lan shook her head and said, "You can't judge someone's character based on just a few words, but based on my observation and what Comrade Li said, she is a sensible female comrade."

There is no doubt that the Comrade Li that Song Lan mentioned is the hostess of the new household next door. Her surname is Li, her given name is Yao, and she is 37 years old.

"What about the rest?"

Qin Yaxin asked again.

"I didn't see it. We should have been in the house at that time."

Song Lan replied, sprinkled some dry flour on the cut noodles, then picked them up and shook them to prevent the noodles from sticking to each other before putting them into the pot.

"Qin Yaxin, when did you become a gossip-monger?"

Qin Boyan glanced at Qin Yaxin with disdain and said, "They are just neighbors. Although we may see each other every day, the most we can do is to say hello when we meet. Do we need to know the details of their family members?"

"Brother, you are very annoying, do you know that?"

Qin Yaxin also looked at Qin Boyan with disdain: "I'm just a little curious, so I can't help but ask my sister-in-law. Besides, when did I ever want to find out the details of the neighboring family? Really, you are the one who slanders people. You are just making up stories!"

"You use idioms so fluently, you have made great progress!"

Qin Boyan leaned against the door frame with his arms folded. He shook his left leg with a cynical smile on his face. He did not respond to Qin Yaxin's words, but his demeanor and the way he shook his legs looked very unethical in Song Lan's eyes. So, Song Lan spoke:

"Second brother, didn't I tell you that you should stand properly, sit properly, and eat properly? Have you forgotten these words?"

Hearing this, Qin Boyan immediately stood up straight and answered honestly: "No, I remember everything!"

"As the saying goes: Appearance is determined by the heart. To know a person, one must look at the outside and inside, and the whole world can be determined by the appearance. To you, to my second sister, and to Xiaowu and Xiaoliu, I never say nonsense in front of you. As long as you remember what I say every day, it will not do you any harm in the future."

"I see."

Qin Boyan admitted his mistakes with a positive attitude: "My sister-in-law always tells us the principles of being a human being, asking us to be strict with ourselves and not lose sight of the big picture because of small things. While improving our inner self-cultivation,

Don't forget your external image. It's best to be consistent inside and out. Otherwise, sooner or later it will have a negative impact on your future.

To put it simply, those small problems that we don’t pay attention to in our daily lives may one day become stumbling blocks to our progress.”

"If you understand this so clearly, why can't you control your words and actions?"

Song Lan said helplessly, "With the way you just acted, if you were in front of the leaders of your company, do you think they would have a good impression of you? Would they give you important work to do?"

Qin Boyan shook his head honestly.

Song Lan: "It's never too late to correct your mistakes, understand?"

Qin Boyan nodded and said "hmm".

Song Lan: "Sister-in-law hopes that you really understand and are not just perfunctorily answering me."

Qin Boyan shook his head like a rattle: "Absolutely not, I didn't pretend to be perfunctory, sister-in-law, I really know I was wrong, and I won't act so careless again."

Qin Yaxin couldn't help but burst out laughing. She said, "Second brother, do you know that you were so careless just now?!"

"Second sister, you have to remember that girls can have their own personalities, but they must be gentle and elegant. And your personality also has to be considered whether it is annoying or not. For example, if you show your thoughts on your face, or if you have an argument with someone and curse like a shrew, it will affect your image."

After hearing what Song Lan said, Qin Yaxin felt that she shouldn't be so rude. Now, she had just made fun of her second brother, and then she was scolded by her eldest sister-in-law. What a miserable life!

No matter what Qin Yaxin thought in her heart, she looked obedient and said to Song Lan: "Sister-in-law, I understand. I will control my temper and practice calligraphy more when I have time to calm my mind and cultivate my character."

Hearing this, Song Lan nodded with satisfaction.

next door.

"Mom, who were you talking to in the yard before?"
