Life flowed on steadily without a ripple, and Cheng Su was blissfully unaware that she had become something of a legendary figure for others to study. It just seemed that there were many more people on both floors being friendly with her, especially Li Qiulan and her sister Li Qiumei, who would often come over with her son for a visit, chat for a bit without saying much, just mentioning that since Cheng Su was busy all day out and about, and since she was at home just taking care of her son anyway, if there was anything she could help with, to just say the word. Even suggesting that if there were clothes out drying in the courtyard, she wouldn’t mind bringing them in.
Cheng Su found it strange, and mentioned it in passing to Qi Taiguo, who just laughed and said, "What’s so surprising about that? You’re a big boss now with a restaurant and a company, and you’re about to make a fortune. Everyone wants to work for you in hopes of catching some of your good fortune, so of course they’re going to suck up to you!"
Cheng Su snorted, thinking to herself that her place wasn’t a shelter taking in anyone and everyone. Who knew if they would take advantage of their shared community to make all sorts of demands? She certainly didn’t want to lift a rock only to drop it on her own feet.
"Oh, right, your mom... our mom!" Cheng Su started, then seeing Qi Taiguo’s face darken, quickly corrected herself, and said, "Our mom called again, she might come visit us next month."
"Why’s she coming? Can she leave the house?" Qi Taiguo asked. "Besides, your company just started, and Ning Ge said he’s going to Beijing to drum up business, right? The restaurant has things going on too, so you’ll be tied up. Who’s going to keep her company if she does come? I’m also busy with my team."
"She said she’s pulled up the peanuts from the field, and she’s going to press some peanut oil to bring over for your eldest son to eat!" Cheng Su huffed and then asked, "Busy these days? With what? Isn’t it just training every other day?"
"Nothing much, our troops are adding a Health Center, planning to send several military doctors over, the kind that get sent down to the grassroots level!" Qi Taiguo replied. "These days they’re even clearing out space to set up the Health Center!"
"So, doctors go to the grassroots level, too?" Cheng Su wasn’t too familiar with this.
