He Tiantian packed her things, preparing to leave work.

At this moment, Zhang Mengmeng, the class representative, brought in the homework and said, "Teacher He, these are the homework books."

"Thank you," He Tiantian said with a smile, looking at the simply dressed girl whose clothes were rather thin. "Aren't you cold?"

Zhang Mengmeng shook her head and said, "It's not cold, Teacher He. After school, I read in bed in the dormitory."

"Okay, take care of yourself," He Tiantian said. "If you have any difficulties, you can tell me."

"Okay, Teacher He," Zhang Meng said with a smile. "If there's nothing else, I'll head out now."

"Goodbye." He Tiantian smiled. She knew that Zhang Mengmeng's family was not well-off, but she wanted to help Zhang Mengmeng. However, she was afraid of hurting Zhang Mengmeng's self-esteem.

He Tiantian put on her coat, hat, and scarf.

As soon as I stepped outside, the wind was howling!

He Tiantian shrank her neck, went to the bicycle shed, found her Phoenix brand women's bicycle, and put her books and homework in the front basket.

"Teacher He." A voice came from behind; it was a boy.

He Tiantian pushed her bicycle, turned around, and said, "Sun Hao, what's wrong? It's so late, aren't you going to eat?"

Sun Hao laughed heartily and said softly, "I'll go over for dinner in a bit. When I see you while playing ball over there, I'll come over and say hello to Teacher He."

"Okay, I'm going home now. You should go eat quickly," He Tiantian said. "Playing ball is good for your health, but I'm not playing anymore. After wiping away your sweat, get dressed quickly so you don't catch a cold."

"Thank you for reminding me, teacher." Sun Hao smiled, holding the basketball in his hands.

He Tiantian smiled and rode her bicycle away into the cold wind.

After He Tiantian walked away, a few boys came up behind her and patted Sun Hao on the shoulder, saying, "Sun Hao, Teacher He is already married, so don't look at her like that."

"Sigh!" Sun Hao said sadly, "What a pity."

“If Teacher He weren’t married, we would all pursue her,” another boy said. “If she’s married, then forget it. Besides, I heard that Teacher He’s husband is a soldier. If you dare to mess around, you’ll be breaking up a military marriage.”

The man's words left everyone sighing.

Sun Hao lowered his head and remained silent.

The group went to the cafeteria for a meal, but Sun Hao felt that the delicious braised pork ribs in front of him didn't taste as good as before.

My mind is filled with Teacher He's voice, appearance, and smile.

I still remember when Teacher He appeared at the classroom door half a month ago, the originally noisy classroom became quiet, and everyone looked at the elfin-like woman standing at the door.

How can this woman's eyes be so bright?

How can this woman have such fair skin?

How can this woman have such a graceful figure?

Teacher He walked to the front of the podium and began to speak.

How can this woman's voice be so beautiful?

Sun Hao's heart felt as if it had been struck a heavy blow, suddenly stopping, but then immediately starting to beat faster again.

Once in the dormitory, Sun Hao couldn't concentrate on his studies, so he went to bed.

In his dreams, she was still there. In his dreams, he even did this and that to Teacher He.

Sighing, Sun Hao woke up in the morning and decided to keep his feelings to himself.

Teacher He is still the same beautiful and gentle teacher.

Sun Hao was still the same polite and well-behaved student, waiting to graduate from university and, as his father had arranged, to embark on a career in government.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, the eighth day of the third lunar month arrived, the opening day of the Chengnan Sanfengqiao branch.

At the end of last year, we recruited some new people, and after training, they are now capable of working independently, so we have enough manpower.

Sanfengqiao's braised meat and dim sum already have a good reputation among the people of Nanshi, so business was very good on the opening day in the south of the city.

Sun Sihao became the manager of both shops, overseeing sales and production, while Qian Shikun continued to manage raw materials and arranged for fresh meat to be delivered to the two shops every day.

Wu Youliang, along with his father and cousin, came to offer their congratulations.

Since He Tiantian opened her shop, they have been her suppliers, and they have already secured contracts with livestock and poultry buyers in several surrounding counties. Although it's hard work, they have indeed made money. Now that He Tiantian has opened her shop, they've given her a big gift.

After opening, He Tiantian encouraged everyone, gave them opening red envelopes, and then took a few guests to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

"Wu Youliang, how is Sister Jingli doing now?" He Tiantian asked, counting the days, she's due to give birth soon.

Wu Youliang grinned from ear to ear and said, "Jingli is doing very well now. She gave birth to a son the night before last. She's currently at home recovering from childbirth. After her recovery period, my mother and Jingli will come to the city to help take care of the baby."

"Oh?" He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "Jingli has already given birth? That's wonderful! I should have gone to visit her, but as you can see, I haven't had time at all. I'll go see her when she comes to the city. Please explain to her when you get back, and don't make her angry!"

“She knows you’re so busy,” Wu Youliang said. “She even told me that after her confinement period, she wants to go shopping with you and buy clothes. You have good taste, so you can pick out some nice things for her.”

"Okay, it's settled then." He Tiantian nodded. "Come on, since it's our opening day, I'll toast everyone with tea instead of wine, wishing us a prosperous business."

"Business is booming," the crowd agreed.

After opening, He Tiantian became even busier, which made her want to find help, but she didn't have anyone she trusted at the moment.

Jiang Lifang wanted to help her daughter-in-law, but all she knew was medicine. She could perform surgery without any problem, but she couldn't read the accounts; there were so many numbers that it was overwhelming.

"Sweetie, money isn't earned in a day, and you've lost weight." Jiang Lifang felt very sorry for He Tiantian, noticing that she had lost weight since the New Year.

Seeing her mother-in-law's worry, He Tiantian smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, I can still manage. The reason I lost weight is because I lost the weight I gained over the New Year."

"You still have some fat?" Jiang Lifang looked you up and down. "Eat more tomorrow, you can't lose weight. If Yingjie sees you like this, I don't know how heartbroken he'll be! By the way, do you need an accountant? I see you need to look at the ledgers every day and grade homework, and you don't go to bed until midnight every day."

He Tiantian's eyes lit up; she really wanted to find an accountant.

"Mom, do you have a suitable candidate?" He Tiantian asked excitedly. "Can they be trusted? What are their abilities like?"

"She's very capable! She's an accountant at our hospital, a woman, and she's reached retirement age," Jiang Lifang said. "Although she has a retirement pension, her husband's health isn't good, and her son's income isn't high either. She doesn't want to be a burden on her children, so she wanted to find a job. You know, in hospitals, if you have good medical skills, you can be rehired; but people in other departments are rarely rehired, after all, many people graduate every year, and when they retire, a position becomes vacant, and many people compete for it!"
