Upon waking up, Lin Xiangyi realized she had transmigrated into a period novel written by her stepsister. Her stepsister was the protagonist, and she was the villainous female supporting character....
Time flies, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Last year, the Xie family did not go home for the New Year. This year, more than a month before the New Year, the village chief called to ask whether they would go home for the New Year.
Xie's father and mother answered the phone, and after Lin Xiangyi and the others came back in the evening, they told Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi the news. Finally, they asked cautiously, "Ah Xiao, Xiang Yi, do we want to go home for the New Year this year?"
Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment. After a moment of silence, Xie Qingxiao said: "Business is very busy now. Whether to go back for the New Year or not, we have to wait and see..."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Xie, Mrs. Xie and Aunt Zhao all nodded in understanding and said nothing more. But Lin Xiangyi clearly saw the disappointment in their eyes.
After all, no matter how good Guangzhou is, how can it compare to their hometown where they have lived for half their lives?
"Qingxiao, how about we go home for the New Year this year?" In the evening, after a vigorous exercise, Lin Xiangyi lay on Xie Qingxiao's chest and said.
"Can't bear it?" Xie Qingxiao lowered his eyes and looked at her. Naturally, he also saw the disappointment in the eyes of Xie's father, Xie's mother and Aunt Zhao.
"Yes!" Lin Xiangyi nodded. "They are so old now. They have come all the way to help us take care of the children. We can't give them anything in return. It's really hard for them to not be able to go back home and reunite with their relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year."
Xie Qingxiao pondered for a moment and said, "I'll see if I can arrange some work for you. If I can, then we'll go back."
Their business is on the rise and the workload is huge. It is indeed unrealistic for Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi to be away for such a long time. They need to be responsible for their business, for their employees, and for the consumers who trust them.
"Okay!" Lin Xiangyi sighed, but didn't say anything else in the end.
Lin Xiangyi didn't hold much hope at first.
After Shen Xiaolan learned about it, she said to her thoughtfully: “Xiangyi, if Pengfei stays, can you go back?”
Apart from Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi, the biggest person in the company is Zhang Pengfei. If Zhang Pengfei stayed, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi might be able to find time to go back.
"Of course!" Lin Xiangyi said, "But don't you want to go back too? You and Pengfei have been out for a year. Your parents and brother and sister-in-law must miss you very much."
"I'll go back and ask my parents." Shen Xiaolan showed a sly smile, "I want to ask them if they are willing to come to Yangcheng!"
"Do you want your parents to come to Yangcheng?" Lin Xiangyi asked.
Shen Xiaolan nodded: "Yes! My parents haven't traveled far for many years. After I came to Yangcheng this year, I described a lot of prosperity in Yangcheng to them, and they were all surprised. Although they didn't say it, I can feel that they also want to come and see it. I was thinking about when I could bring them to Yangcheng to play, and this Chinese New Year is a good opportunity!"
Lin Xiangyi said in surprise: "If this is really possible, it would be great! You go ask them first, if they are willing to come, I will buy them tickets!"
"Do I need you to buy the ticket?" Shen Xiaolan scolded, "You're not the only one with money now! I have money too!"
This year, as the clothing industry has grown, they have been expanding Yiyun’s scale. Not to mention other cities, Yiyun has more than ten stores in Guangzhou alone. Shen Xiaolan is now Yiyun’s regional manager in Yangcheng, and receives considerable dividends every month.
"Okay, okay! I know you're rich!" Lin Xiangyi said with a bad smile, "Then treat me to hotpot tonight!"
"Okay!" Shen Xiaolan said readily.
After returning home from eating hot pot in the evening, Shen Xiaolan first confirmed with Zhang Pengfei. Zhang Pengfei didn't care whether he went home or not. In fact, he would be happier not to go home because he didn't want to see his biological mother at all. Naturally, he agreed with Shen Xiaolan's proposal!
Not only can I not have to go home, but I can also bring my parents-in-law to Yangcheng, and let Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi go home for the New Year. Everyone will be happy, so why not do it?
So Shen Xiaolan immediately called home. The Shen family did not originally have a telephone, but after Zhang Pengfei and Shen Xiaolan came to Yangcheng, in order to make it easier to contact their daughter, the Shen family spent a lot of money to install a telephone at home.
Shen Xiaolan pretended to be mysterious and first told her family that she and Zhang Pengfei would not go back home for the New Year this year. Although Shen's father and mother were a little disappointed after hearing this, they also expressed their understanding. After all, Zhang Pengfei and Shen Xiaolan are now working under Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi. Their business is the busiest during the Chinese New Year, so it is normal that they can't come back.
Shen's father and mother suppressed their disappointment and said, "Okay, it's okay if you don't come back. Come back when you have time! Don't worry about home, mom and dad are all fine..."
"Puchi!" Zhang Pengfei couldn't help but laugh out loud. How could his father-in-law and mother-in-law be so easy to fool?
Shen Xiaolan couldn't help laughing, and pushed Zhang Pengfei, scolding him, "Don't show off so quickly!"
Father and Mother Shen were a little confused when they heard their laughter: "What's wrong? Why are you so happy? Pengfei, Xiaolan, what's the good news?"
"It's not a happy event." Shen Xiaolan suppressed her laughter and said, "Mom and Dad, Pengfei and I can't go back this year, but if you miss us, you can come to Yangcheng!"
"Yangcheng is very prosperous and lively. I heard from my godfather and godmother that it is even more lively during the New Year, and there is also a flower market. Do you want to come and see it?"
Shen's father and mother were confused by Shen Xiaolan's sudden words: "We are going to Yangcheng?"
"Yes, you guys come to Yangcheng!" Shen Xiaolan continued to persuade, "Mom and Dad, don't you want to come and see Pengfei and my new home in Yangcheng? My career in Yangcheng is also developing very well now, don't you want to come and see it?"
