Madam Lu picked up the phone on the table and glanced at the unknown number. She picked it up listlessly.

“Who is this?” Madam Lu’s voice was lazy and casual, as if she had just woken up.

[Is Sister Meng calling her mother-in-law?]

[I’m suddenly a little curious. Why did Sister Meng call Mother-in-law?] [Although her mother-in-law’s voice sounds a little perfunctory, she feels like a powerful person.]

[Sister in front, aren’t you thinking too much? Sister Meng is holding a staff member’s phone. Her mother-in-law might not have taken the call seriously because it was from an unfamiliar number.]

[I’m curious about Sister Meng’s relationship with her mother-in-law. I wonder if this mother-in-law has any objections to her.]

Meng Chuyuan said gently, “Mom, I’m Meng Chuyuan.”

Madam Lu was originally sleepy, but when she heard Meng Chuyuan’s voice, she subconsciously sat up straight and perked up.

If not for Meng Chuyuan’s call, Madam Lu would have really fallen asleep.

She looked at the call display and saw that it was an unfamiliar phone number. She asked curiously, “Aren’t you recording a variety show? Why are you suddenly calling me?”

Madam Lu thought that this phone call was a task arranged by the production team, so in the next second, she started to watch her words.

She had not been aware of this when Lu Jinsen called her last time. However, when she suddenly received a call from Meng Chuyuan today, she had considered other factors.

Meng Chuyuan stood up and left the dining table. She went to a quieter place and said, “Mom, I want to ask you to do something for me.”

The cameraman of the production team had a sense of propriety. He paid attention to the privacy of the guests and did not specially follow her to film the conversation. He only recorded her back view for the audience from afar.

[Can’t the cameraman go up and film the conversation? I really want to know what they’re talking about.]

[I want to know too, hahahaha. I’ll just keep thinking about it.]

[Stop fooling around. It’s not right to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations.]

[Help, I might be possessed. Just from looking at Sister Meng make a call, I already can’t help but think that she is so beautiful and charming.]

[Why isn’t my phone ringing yet? Didn’t Sister Meng call me?]

[Hahahahaha, sister, you said that the phone hasn’t rung yet. You’re really having such a senseless pipe dream in broad daylight.]

Madam Lu was suddenly curious. “What’s the matter?”

“I promised to donate to the fishing village to build a shelter when I filmed the variety show last week. I want to trouble you to help me contact the villagers and help me keep up with the progress of the shelter.”

Meng Chuyuan had forgotten about the note in her bag, but fortunately, she did not lose it.

The past few days should have been enough for them to consider her offer. It was time to contact them and see what the situation was.

“You’re asking the right person.” Madam Lu slapped the table happily and smiled. “Our company does charity every year. I know a little about this.”

Mr. Lu was a famous philanthropist in the industry. In the early days, Madam Lu accompanied him to participate in various activities, especially public welfare. After years of exposure to such activities, she naturally knew the process.

Hearing that Meng Chuyuan was going to donate to the fishing village, Madam Lu was quite supportive.

Meng Chuyuan believed that Madam Lu had the ability to do this and would definitely be able to do it well. She said firmly, “Then I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Madam Lu said, “Don’t worry, leave this to me. I promise to handle it beautifully for you.”

Meng Chuyuan gave Madam Lu the contact information and geographical location of the village. After confirming that she had memorized it, she heaved a sigh of relief.

“Mom, are you in the office now?”

Madam Lu nodded and sighed softly. “Secretary Zheng threw me a pile of paper. I’m dazzled.”

If she had known that it would be so difficult, she would not have said such harsh words last night.

If she wanted to learn new skills, she would have to put in a lot of effort.

Meng Chuyuan said, “Take your time. Don’t be anxious.” “I just hope that Old Lu and Ah Ye can come back soon.”

“…” Meng Chuyuan had yet to officially meet Lu Qingye’s father.

It was said that Father Lu could stay overseas for a year at most. The business overseas was not worse than in China. Previously, Madam Lu went on business trips with him, but later on, she could not get used to life there and took a plane back alone.

Madam Lu casually flipped through the documents on the table and yawned lazily.

“Record the variety show well. I’ll handle the matters here. If it really doesn’t work out, I still have three useless brothers to rely on.”

This was not the first time she had encountered such a situation. After all, Father Lu and Lu Qingye were always on the move.

Occasionally, they would call home to ask her to go to the company to take a look. Madam Lu would pass the matter to her three brothers and catch whoever was free.

After hanging up, Meng Chuyuan returned to the dining table and returned the phone to the production crew.

Seeing that she had been on the phone for so long, Lu Jinsen asked curiously, “Is there something urgent?”

Meng Chuyuan glanced at him and said casually, “It’s settled.” [Is there anything that I, a VIP, can’t listen to? Boohoo.]

[Is it because there’s still tensions between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? That;s why it can’t be brought up in the variety show?]

[Can you tell me? Don’t be so mysterious. If this continues, I won’t be able to sleep or eat in peace.]

[I was still hoping that Lu Jinsen would serve as our bodily extension and ask the important questions in our place. I had high expectations of him. I’m sorry.]

[Is Sister Meng hiding something behind our backs? I’m guessing.]

In the afternoon, the six guests arrived at the embroidery workshop.

Today, they were here to experience embroidery and learn needlework and embroidery methods with the embroiderer.

This was the first time everyone had come to such a place, so they were also curious about the things in the embroidery workshop.

The people working here were all women. They sat here almost every day holding the needles. They seemed to have mastered the technique, and did not hesitate when they inserted the needles.

After the person in charge of the embroidery workshop introduced the basic situation to everyone, he invited them to sit down warmly. “In a while, the embroiderer will come to teach everyone the needlework. Then y’all can give it a try.”

Almost all the embroiderers here were of the same generation as their mothers. Some of them were slightly older and were already old embroiderers.

“Our embroidery is purely done by hand. This way, the things we embroider can have more of a human touch and have a more obvious layered feel to them.”

When they saw the work in the hands of the embroidery ladies, everyone could already feel that not only were the layers very three-dimensional, but everything was lifelike.

Meng Chuyuan sat down and chose a pattern that she wanted to embroider. Then, the old embroiderer beside her taught her how to separate the threads first. Every step was explained in detail, and she was seriously demonstrating it to her.

As she listened to the embroiderer’s explanation and followed along, she slowly learned it.

Then, she learned needlework. The old embroiderer would guide her carefully from the side and teach her how to lift and drop the needle.

Meng Chuyuan said, “Let me try.”

At the start, the embroiderer basically guided her hand in hand and there was basically no problem with the embroidery.

After leaving the embroiderer’s hand, Meng Chuyuan used her muscle memory to embroider a few threads..
