Chapter 149 is strange.

"Xiaoqin, have we had guests?"

The voice was clear and loud, which startled Qiu Xiaoqin.

"Yes, we have guests. Mother, are you awake?" Qiu Xiaoqin replied.

A short while later, rustling sounds came from the room, and then Wang Li came out.

He first scanned Shen Dong's face, then said, "This guest doesn't seem to have been here before. Xiaoqin, he doesn't seem to be your classmate!"

Qiu Xiaoqin was about to say that they were classmates when she choked back her words, stammering, "Uh, yes, not classmates, they're...their neighbors!"

"Really? Whose child is this? I've never seen them before?"

Now, not only Qiu Xiaoqin was confused, but Shen Dong also realized that something was wrong.

Wang Li wasn't like this last time she came!

This not only makes the ideas clear and the expression complete, but also adds more facial expressions.

Shen Dong thought for a moment and thought that "coming back to life" seemed to be a more accurate explanation.

"Mom, your memory has returned?" Qiu Xiaojun excitedly hugged Wang Li's arm and said loudly, tears welling up in his eyes.

Qiu Xiaoqin also stared intently at Wang Li's face, afraid of missing an answer.

"You silly child, what do you mean by memory recovery? You're just spouting nonsense I can't understand," Wang Li said, peeking out. "Where's your dad? He's gone again!"

Shen Dong saw the light in Qiu Xiaojun's eyes gradually fade away, just like a few years ago when he thought Shi Xiaohai was just going out on business and might bring back a gift. He had been hoping for that, but later the light in his eyes also disappeared.

He understood the feeling of dashed hopes, so he walked over and patted Qiu Xiaojun on the shoulder.

Qiu Xiaoqin secretly wiped away a tear.

Seeing that the two were in a bad mood, Shen Dong went out to buy some groceries, preparing to show off his skills.

The brother and sister were very surprised. They didn't expect Shen Dong to be able to cook, and he seemed quite skilled at it.

"Brother-in-law, don't ruin our pots and pans, we still need to eat them later." Qiu Xiaojun joked, since there was no one else in the kitchen.

Qiu Xiaoqin nodded, "No manners."

Shen Dong worked quickly and efficiently, and soon several dishes were ready.

"Mom, dinner is ready."

Qiu Xiaoqin greeted Wang Li, who was sitting to the side in a daze.

After they were seated, Wang Li suddenly said, "Xiaoqin, are you looking for a husband?"

Qiu Xiaoqin was startled!

In Wang Li's memory, she was still in elementary school, so why would she ask this question!

She stood there, stunned, her mind racing with thoughts.

A few days ago, I felt that my mother seemed to have changed, but because she was still talking incoherently, I couldn't be sure.

But now she was starting to waver.

But before she could speak, Wang Li muttered to herself, "Oh, no, her father said she still needs to go to university, so she can't get married now."

The room fell silent for a moment, everyone holding their breath and waiting for Wang Li to say something next, but then she started eating.

"Mmm, delicious! This doesn't seem like Xiaoqin's cooking!"

Qiu Xiaoqin forced an awkward smile and said to Wang Li, who was looking over, "This is a new dish I learned."

"No wonder, I knew it."

The meal ended in an eerie atmosphere.

Wang Li smiled at Shen Dong and went back inside.

"Sister, don't you think Mom seems to be talking more..."

"..." Qiu Xiaojun hesitated for a moment before speaking cautiously.

Qiu Xiaoqin looked worried but didn't speak; instead, she stared at the room.

Because he didn't know Qiu Xiaoqin in his previous life, he had no idea whether Wang Li had really recovered later.

But he had come several times, and this time the changes were the most significant, forcing him to think seriously about it.

"Xiaoqin, did your mother have any coworkers or friends from her previous job? You could introduce her to them when you have some free time..."

""

Qiu Xiaoqin thought for a moment and said, "You know how it was during the years after my father passed away. There weren't many factories where I could work. As for friends... I did have some. I think my maternal grandmother had some friends there."

Since Wang Li showed signs of recovery, Qiu Xiaoqin was very concerned. After telling Qiu Xiaojun to watch the house, she hurriedly went to find someone.

Qiu Xiaoqin didn't let him come along, so Shen Dong had no choice but to go home alone.

The next day, as soon as Shen Dong arrived at the factory, Yang Yujun called him over for a meeting.

The meeting covered the issue of redistributing ice blocks, which Shen Dong had mentioned last week.

A dozen or so people gradually sat down in the large conference room. Some were acquaintances, but most were strangers. When Shen Dong looked over, none of them had any expression on their faces.

Yang Yujun and Zhang Daikui entered one after the other, and as soon as they sat down, Yang Yujun began the meeting.

After he finished speaking, the factory managers began to express their opinions.

In summary: the allocation was already made last year, so there's no need to change it this year; just keep it the same as last year.

Yang Yujun called on Shen Dong to speak.

"Last year's allocation was the result after the dairy factory was removed. This year, the dairy factory has resumed operations, so shouldn't last year's allocation be returned? We, the descendants of Yan and Huang, value credit the most! Since it's something borrowed, it should be returned when the time comes."

"We also have a tradition of respecting the elderly and caring for the young. Have you ever respected us elders?" an older factory manager said slowly.

"I respect elders who are of good character and high moral standing, but if someone borrows things from our factory and doesn't return them, it's fine to disrespect such elders." Shen Dong didn't hold back and started to make sarcastic remarks.

"you......

'

The crowd below was also dissatisfied and began to speak up, criticizing Shen Dong.

"I think Director Shen is right. How can we, as elders, take what belongs to the younger generation and refuse to give it back? Our livestock station agrees to return it." Wang Yuan stood up and loudly stated his position.

Then the people at the purchasing station also expressed their support.

The scene became somewhat comical.

Shen Dong sat leisurely below, observing the factory managers. Suddenly, he noticed several factory managers secretly giving Zhang Daikui meaningful glances. An idea struck him, and he spoke up.

"Deputy Director Zhang, what do you think we should do about this? Could you give us your opinion?"

Zhang Daikui was exchanging glances with his subordinates when he was suddenly startled by the call.

"Well, I think what the factory managers said makes sense; everything has already been allocated, and changing it back and forth would be too much of a hassle. Of course, Factory Manager Shen's request is also reasonable! So, as for how to handle this, I think we should listen to Director Yang!"

Zhang Daikui's main selling point is its slippery texture.

"Xiao Liu, do you still have last year's meeting minutes?" Yang Yujun asked Xiao Liu, who was a clerk who was in charge of recording meeting minutes.

After waiting a while, Xiao Liu brought the documents over.

"Hey, everyone, take a look at the meeting minutes."

The factory managers looked at each other, then looked at the minutes carefully, and realized why Yang Yujun had asked them to look at the meeting minutes.

The meeting's theme was "Special Meeting Regarding the Allocation of Summer Ice Quotas for Dairy Factories"!

What do you all think?

What do you think? Of course, you should return it!

The factory directors put down the meeting minutes and remained silent.

At this point, they had no choice but to agree!
