Looking at Zhao Tiancheng's contented expression, Zhang Hongmei felt that Wang Xinyi's future life would definitely be happy. Zhao Tiancheng was absolutely tolerant of his family. This was evident in his relationship with Zhao Haozheng.

Zhang Hongmei sent a voice message to Zhang Shouyi: "Brother Zhang, when will Zhao Haozheng be back?"

"It should be soon. All five workshops in the textile factory are now in production. Moreover, the Ministry of Industry has purchased all the finished products and placed them in the building and the supply and marketing cooperative for sale."

His textile factory is now running smoothly.

"That's good. Have Aunt Li prepare some brine for tofu and various seasonings for stewing meat, the most important of which is Sichuan peppercorns. Have her bring them back for me."

"Okay, I'll tell Aunt Li when I get home for dinner tonight. Is there anything else you need?"

"That's all. The rest don't need to be sent through any special channels. Should we send them to him?"

"No need, he will definitely come back. He made a promise with his grandfather that before he leaves, his grandfather will treat him to roast duck and hot pot."

"Hehe, he's just a foodie."

"The families of the international students who went with you have all replied to them, and some have even sent them gifts. He has to help them take them back."

"Hehe, just don't give him too much, or he might lose something."

“Not much, he can take it.”

Next, Zhang Hongmei told Zhang Shouyi all about how adorable the baby was.

Zhang Shouyi didn't think much of it; ever since the child was born, his wife had been talking about him constantly.

“Honey, that kid from Liujiatun has grown a lot taller now. When you have some time, I’ll take a picture and show it to you.”

"Brother Zhang, how is Liu Jingsong's health now? Is he speaking fluently again?"

"Yes, you don't need to worry about his intelligence. He's quite smart. I've registered him under your household registration."

"That's great. Aunt Li must be very happy now, right?"

"That's right. I wanted to find someone else to help take care of the child, but I was refused. Uncle Li even came over and told me that the child would be raised by the two of them." Zhang Shouyi thought to himself, finally he didn't have to hear about the child anymore.

"Hehe, at least it's some consolation for Uncle Li and Aunt Li."

The two chatted about this and that, but when the topic of children came up, Zhang Shouyi would steer the conversation away from it.

Zhao Hao and Wang Ying returned to the capital together today, and he is leaving now. But he must say goodbye to Hongmei's grandfather.

And then there's the leader. Just thinking about Zhang Shouyi makes Zhao Hao's teeth ache. Seriously, how could such a lively and cheerful girl like Hongmei end up with a man with a poker face?

Then he thought about how Wang Ying would have to help him keep things in order after he left, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Wang Ying, I'll be relying on you from now on."

"It's alright. I only come here once a week. The accountant and workshop director have already made arrangements, so there's nothing serious. Besides, the leaders will definitely help you find someone to manage things."

"Then I'll thank you too." Actually, Zhao Hao had prepared two thousand yuan to give to Wang Ying, but he just couldn't bring himself to say it.

Having known this girl for so long, I know her to some extent. I reckon she'd glare at me if I brought up money.

But I really feel that I should give Wang Ying some compensation.

So I tentatively asked, "Wang Ying, how about I pay you a salary?"

"Pay me a salary? How much would you pay me to hire me?"

"Hehe, I was just saying, don't take it to heart. I just feel a little embarrassed because you've helped me for more than half a year."

"I'm not doing this for you. If it weren't for Hongmei's instructions to the leaders, I wouldn't have time to waste here with you."

"Hehe, is it really necessary to be so blunt?"

"I don't like beating around the bush. I prefer to be direct."

"Hehe, I'll treat Hongmei to dinner when I get back, to thank her friend for her help."

"Just be nice to Hongmei."

That remark left me speechless, and the conversation died just like that.

"Zhao Haozheng, I have something for you to give to Hongmei."

"Sure, as long as it's not about money!"

"Why can't it be money?"

"Because Hongmei has too much money, she always tries to get it back, and you still have to bring her money?"

Wang Ying thought to herself, "I don't know either!" But then she thought it was Zhang Hongmei, and she felt relieved; she wouldn't be short of money.

"I wanted you to bring her some food."

"That's a good idea. I think Hongmei would like seasonings and such."

"Isn't it there?"

"Of course not, they don't stew meat there."

"Okay, I'll go back and get ready. Is there anything else we need?"

Zhao Hao shrugged. "I don't know either."

When is Aunt Wang going to have her baby?

"I don't know either, but I feel like I'm about to give birth!"

"Please bring a gift for the baby."

"Sure, absolutely no problem. Wang Ying, why don't you go abroad to study?"

“I made a mistake, and Hongmei was afraid I would be too impulsive, so she didn’t let me go.”

Zhao Haozheng didn't dare to tell the truth. With such a fiery temper, and being a bodyguard, he must be very skilled. If all of that is in one person, of course he would act impulsively.

"Then you can go now. I think you're very mature now."

Wang Ying shook her head. "I have to keep an eye on things at home for Hongmei."

"Hehe, we're really alike. I'm also her housekeeper in the US."

Wang Ying focused on driving and ignored the chatterbox.

"Wang Ying, we need to go see Liu Jingze and the others who came with me."

“Okay, as long as you’re not in a hurry, you can stay in Q City for a few days.”

"Hmm, I need to ask them if they have any messages to send back."

Wang Ying had a good impression of Zhao Haozheng. Although he was sometimes unreliable, he was kind, warm-hearted, and considerate.

It took the two of them a day and a night to reach Q City, and that was only because the roads had been repaired.

They went directly to Liu Jingze.

Are you preparing to return to the capital?

"Yes, I came to say goodbye and thank you for taking care of me. Is there anything you want to say to Hongmei?"

"I'll write a letter for you to give to her!"

"No problem. This will definitely be delivered. No rush, I'm not leaving until tomorrow."

Wang Ying smiled at Liu Jingze. Knowing a little about his relationship with Hongmei, she felt a bit awkward and rarely spoke to him.

"Wang Ying, you've worked hard these past few days."

"It's my duty. I will do my best as instructed by Hongmei and the leaders."

Zhao Hao was really impressed by this girl; with just one sentence, no one knew how to respond.

"Brother Liu, you're busy. I'll go see them and see if they have any news for me to take back."

"Okay, let's all have dinner together tonight."

Zhao Hao first found Peter; they were both teacher and friend, and had the best relationship.
