"Then why do you insist on living in the county town? When did your mother buy land and build a house in the county town? How much did it cost? If you just move there like this, how will you make a living?" Lin Shanfu knew the old lady's temper, so he told her that Lin Xiazhu owned several buildings in the county town.

Even now, no one else in the town knows that they bought such a large plot of land in the county town. After they moved away, they only thought that they rented a house and opened a shop in the county town. Many people even talked badly about them behind their backs.

At this moment, Lin Xiazhu and Grandma Lin only revealed that there was one building. If they said there were four buildings, Grandma Lin would start causing trouble again and would definitely say something like giving one to her cousin.

"Opening a shop, Grandma, don't worry about that. We can support ourselves." Even if the clothing store doesn't make much money, there's still the rent for three shops. That money will be enough to cover our expenses, and we can even save some.

Besides, the clothing store has such a good location, so business is bound to be good and it won't lose money. Business is relatively easy to do these days, and it's bound to make money.

Lin Chacha moved to the county town in mid-August, but she was only there for a few days and would soon return to her hometown.

"Since we're already here, let's stay a few more days. Why the rush to go back?" Lin Xiazhu said, frowning.

Lin Chacha felt a little guilty, but she didn't show it. In the past two years, she and her older sister would go back to Linjia Village several times to buy mountain products. Each time, her older sister would keep the money from selling the mountain products, and of course, she would also give her fifty yuan.

She didn't mean to complain about the amount; the family had a heavy burden, having built new houses in both the town and the county seat, which cost a lot of money. Her older sister was more capable than her, always finding more mountain products than she did, so the income from selling those products should rightfully be hers, as she was the one in charge of the household.

Now that she has a house, all that's left is to buy a car. However, Lin Chacha isn't obsessed with cars; her obsession is to make a lot of money and build a successful career.

However, she can't tell her sister about this now.

"Sis, I'm not a kid anymore, so please stop worrying about me. Anyway, I won't cause any trouble." Lin Chacha said as she ran upstairs to pack her things.

Although she didn't move to the county town, she still has a room here. Now that they're all grown up, Xiaoxue and Taozi each have their own rooms. Taozi wants to sleep with Lin Xiazhu, but Lin Xiazhu says she needs to be independent and not rely on her too much.

"The shop is really nice, and the store is quite spacious." Yan Xin was very satisfied. The interior design of this shop was something she and Lin Xiazhu had come up with together.

Yan Xin wanted the design to resemble the style of the luxury stores she frequented in her previous life, but Lin Xiazhu rejected it outright. Although this was a county town, it was just a small county town, not luxurious enough, and there was no need for it.

“Just design it that way. The environment is so nice, and the materials might not even be more expensive. Why not?” Yan Xin was very upset at the time. Such a good suggestion, but they didn’t take it.

"That's enough. Stop with the nonsense and be realistic." Lin Xiazhu didn't say much more, but in short, things couldn't go too far.

Undeterred, Yan Xin frequently sought out Lin Xiazhu to discuss the shop renovation, even drawing up blueprints for her. Lin Xiazhu revised the blueprints, resulting in the current renovation outcome.

"We'll display the boutique items in the shop and the wholesale clothes at the entrance. If one person can't handle it all, we'll hire another. Or we could just call Zhao Ting to the county town; you'll find her useful anyway." Zhao Ting was a young girl who used to help them run the shop in town; she's twenty years old this year.

Yan Xin thought it was a good idea. If they hired someone else, they wouldn't know their background and would have to work on them again, and if the other person was difficult to get along with, it would be a huge headache.

“It just so happens that Chacha is going back after a few days, so I’ll tell her then, otherwise it won’t be easy for her to come over once she’s found a job,” Lin Xiazhu said.

Just then, Lin Chacha came downstairs and heard their conversation. She called out, "It seems that Sister Zhao Ting is going out to work. I heard that her neighbor's daughter is coming back from working away from home for the holidays. Sister Zhao Ting's mother asked someone if the factory was still hiring. I heard that they were."

"Then you can ask her what she says. If she wants to go out, can we stop her?" Lin Xiazhu smiled, not paying much attention. If Zhao Ting wants to go out to work, then she can just hire someone else.

"Hurry up and get ready, then take a shower and get some sleep. I'll treat everyone to a big dinner tonight, and after dinner we'll go see a movie, okay?" Lin Xiazhu started spouting extravagant praise again.

"What's the point of watching a movie? It's better to watch TV at home. How about we go to a dance hall?"

Yan Xin was mainly dissatisfied with the movie theater environment. They were sitting on hard benches, and all of them were long benches. Each long bench could seat six people, and the theater could cramm at least two hundred people in one theater.

Moreover, many movies from that era were war films, which she was tired of watching. There was a movie theater in town, but she went a few times and then never wanted to go again.

She had been to the movies in the county town, but they weren't much better than the cinemas in the town. Except for one time when she watched "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio" and thought it was okay, she didn't like any of the others.

We just bought some videotapes for the house, but it's better to watch individual films at home. The 80s and 90s were the peak of Hong Kong film and television, and many of the films were quite good.

Those superstars who later married and had children are still young and handsome, with top-notch acting skills. Although the filming conditions were relatively backward, their acting skills made up for it. Otherwise, how could there be so many classics?

She had never been to a rural dance hall from the 1990s, and she was really curious and wanted to see something new.

“Go ahead, go ahead, I want to go to the dance hall too.” Lin Chacha’s eyes were gleaming. She had heard Zhang Yu talk about the dance halls in the county town before and really wanted to broaden her horizons.

Lin Xiaoxue nodded vigorously, "Let's go to the dance hall, let's go to the dance hall."

Lin Taozi didn't understand what the dance hall represented, but that didn't stop her from agreeing. Since everyone wanted to go, the dance hall must have lots of good food and drinks, so she wanted to go too.
