Chapter 319 Obvious Dissatisfaction
After wrapping the mooncakes, Jian Yue sat in the room and carefully planned the arrangements for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
We decided to give all store employees a day off during the Mid-Autumn Festival so that they can reunite with their families and spend the holiday together.
One day in advance, Jian Yue began busy preparing holiday gifts.
First, place the mooncakes neatly one by one in the prepared paper box.
Then, she picked out some red apples and gently placed two apples next to the mooncakes.
Then it was the pork. I went to the market to pick out fresh pork. When I came back, I cut it into evenly divided portions of two pounds and wrapped them in clean oil paper.
My eyes inadvertently swept across the rich and diverse fruits in the house, and my heart moved slightly.
Those fruits are indeed too rare in this era. If too many of them are taken out, it will definitely arouse unnecessary suspicion.
When I occasionally took out some fruits at home, I would see a gleam of inquiry in Grandma Zhong's eyes.
However, Grandma Zhong was a smart person and never asked.
She didn't want to cause trouble or trouble to everyone because of these little things.
After all, in this era, some things still need to be handled with caution.
The next morning, Jian Yue came to the head office with a carefully prepared holiday gift.
The store clerks all knew early on that holiday gifts would be distributed today and that the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday was approaching.
Everyone's face was filled with irrepressible joy and anticipation.
Jian Yue moved the boxes filled with holiday gifts one by one to the open space in the store, and then greeted everyone to come over with a smile.
"Brothers, come over to receive your gifts. I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance!"
The shop assistants quickly gathered around.
Jian Yue first picked up a festival gift and handed it to a comrade who had performed well and had more experience in the store. "Brother, you have contributed a lot to the store during this period. Thank you for your hard work."
The comrade took the gift, his face full of gratitude and respect, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Then, Jian Yue distributed holiday gifts to other comrades in arms one by one.
Every time I hand it to someone, I will sincerely send a blessing:
"Brother, I wish you all the best in the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoy the happiness of your family."
"Young man, you work very efficiently. Go home and relax. Happy holidays."
......
The comrades received the gifts and kept expressing their gratitude.
Some of them looked at the mooncakes and apples curiously and talked to each other in low voices.
"The mooncakes my sister-in-law made herself, the taste must be right."
"Yes, look at this apple, it's big and red, it's really pleasing to the eye."
......
On the night before the holiday, Jian Yue chose a restaurant she often went to.
In the restaurant, two large tables were put together.
The shop assistants came to the restaurant one after another, "Sister-in-law, you are spending money again!"
Jian Yue waved her hand and said politely, "Everyone has worked hard all the time. Let's get together on Mid-Autumn Festival. The most important thing is to have fun."
Jiang Zeyuan and several of his comrades were chatting enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
"Lao Jiang, you really married a good wife. She is both capable and generous." A comrade joked, his eyes full of envy.
Jiang Zeyuan smiled and glanced at Jian Yue, feeling proud and satisfied, "Of course, my wife is beyond reproach."
After a while, the food was served and the aroma filled the air.
The delicious dishes are mouth-watering, including braised pork, braised spareribs, sweet and sour carp, steamed crab, stir-fried prawns, pickled fish, Beijing-style roast duck, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, etc.
Everyone was eating, chatting and laughing.
Jian Yue stood up and raised a drink, "Dear brothers, thank you for your hard work during this period. I hope you all have a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a happy family!"
Everyone raised their glasses in response to Jian Yue's blessing.
"Thank you sister-in-law!"
"I wish my sister-in-law and brother happiness!"
Various blessings came one after another.
At the dinner table, everyone was laughing and talking.
Some were talking about interesting things about their children at home, with happy smiles on their faces.
Some were sharing every detail of their work, sometimes expressing emotion, sometimes laughing.
A shop assistant smiled and said, "My kid has recently learned how to ride a bicycle. He rides in circles in the yard all day long. He's so happy."
Another clerk also said: "As for work, our business has been getting better and better recently, and it will definitely be better in the future!"
Everyone was talking at the same time, and the restaurant was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
After Jian Yue and Jiang Zeyuan finished their evening dinner, they drove back home hand in hand.
Before I even walked into the house, I saw Xiaoyi and Yaoyao standing at the door from afar.
The two little guys put their hands on their hips with obvious dissatisfaction on their faces, looking like two little guards standing guard.
As soon as he saw his parents come back, Brother Xiaoyi spoke first.
He pouted and said, "Mom and Dad, you are so mean. You didn't even take us with you when you went out!"
Yaoyao also echoed, "That's right, we've been waiting for a long time, did you guys secretly go out to eat something delicious?"
Jian Yue and Jiang Zeyuan smiled at each other.
Jian Yue quickly walked forward, squatted down, and gently hugged the two children, "My dears, mommy and daddy are going to give Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to the uncles and aunts in the store."
Brother Xiaoyi blinked and asked in confusion, "Then why don't you take us with you? We can help too."
Jiang Zeyuan also came over, touched Xiaoyi's head and said, "Xiaoyi, Dad and Mom were in a hurry this time, so I will definitely take you with me next time, okay?"
Yaoyao insisted, "Then you have to bring us gifts as compensation, otherwise we will not forgive you."
Brother Xiaoyi's eyes suddenly lit up, he ran to Jiang Zeyuan and grabbed his arm.
"Dad, Dad, I want to ride a horse."
Yaoyao also ran over, grabbed Jiang Zeyuan's other arm, and said coquettishly: "I want one too, I want to ride a horse too."
Jiang Zeyuan looked at Jian Yue with a smile.
Jian Yue nodded and agreed with a smile, "Then let Dad play with you."
Jiang Zeyuan walked into the yard and said, "Come on, little knights, get on your horses."
Yaoyao excitedly climbed onto Jiang Zeyuan's shoulders and hugged his neck tightly.
"Drive! Drive!"
Yaoyao waved her little hands and shouted.
Jiang Zeyuan cooperated with them and trotted slowly in the yard.
Sometimes fast, sometimes slow, making the two children laugh.
"Dad, faster, faster!" Yaoyao shouted excitedly.
After Yaoyao finished, it was Xiaoyi's turn.
Jian Yue stood aside and enjoyed watching them play.
Grandma Zhong in the house was also looking at the scene in the yard through the window, and the wrinkles on her face were smoothed out.
After playing for a while, Jiang Zeyuan felt a little tired and slowly stopped. "Little knights, dismount and take a rest. Daddy is tired."
Brother Xiaoyi and Yaoyao got off Jiang Zeyuan's back and ran over to hug Jian Yue, "Mom, we had so much fun."
Jian Yue kissed their foreheads and said, "As long as the babies are happy."
At this time, the moon was hanging high in the sky, casting soft moonlight.
inside the room.
"Dad, please tell us a story." Brother Xiaoyi said, holding Jiang Zeyuan's hand.
"Okay, then Dad will tell you a story about the Mid-Autumn Festival, okay?"
"Okay, okay!"
Jiang Zeyuan cleared his throat and began to tell a story, "A long time ago, there were ten suns in the sky, which baked the earth dry and cracked, and the crops withered..."
The children listened with great interest and asked questions from time to time.
Then I gradually became sleepy and fell asleep...
