"As long as my sister is by my side, no one will dare to bully her. If anyone dares to bully her, I will punch them. Grandpa said that my fists are the most powerful."

"Um."

Children speak without restraint and forget about it after they finish speaking.

Deng Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled, then said, "What do you want to eat today? Dad will make it for you."

"Dad, I want to eat wontons from Aunt Lin's shop next door."

"Let's go eat together in the evening when Mom comes back. Dad will make rice for you today, okay?

After dinner, Dad will wrap your books in covers."

"good."

Deng Chen was busy cooking for the children and wrapping their books at noon.

Wrapping book covers is a time-consuming task. It took me a long time just to find a suitable book cover.

Deng Chen found some thick books with white backgrounds that were not easy to rot and took down all the new books.

Helping them wrap their book covers, the two little guys excitedly watched Deng Chen busying himself.

After Deng Chen wrapped one, they quickly took out pencils and clumsily wrote their names and classes on it.

After wrapping the book covers, Deng Chen originally wanted to let them take a nap, but when he looked at the time, he found that there was not much time left.

So they were not allowed to sleep. The three of them sat on the sofa in the living room. Deng Chen took a book and told them stories for a while, and then sent them to school.

After get off work in the afternoon, Ying Han drove home quickly to pick them up from school.

In this way, the couple slept alone at noon and in the afternoon. After persisting for a few days, Ying Han felt that this was not working and had to find a nanny.

On Sunday, Brother Yang invited them to dinner.

Right at their house.

But there were too many people and their house couldn't accommodate them, after all, there were so many children.

Sister Ling thought of having a barbecue outdoors in a cool place.

Ying Han recommended her to Brother Lin's orange orchard. (Auntie Wang Lu's son worked at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Later, the couple discovered a good orange tree and bought a piece of land in the suburbs to plant orange trees. Later, they turned it into a farm experience base for holiday trips. It is introduced in another book.)

Although the oranges are not ripe yet, there are some small things like strawberries that are ripe, so the children won’t be too bored.

On Sunday, several families set out with their children, carrying large and small bags of things.

The big and small bags are actually filled with various snacks and various ingredients prepared by each family.

Ying Han brought a lot of things, including various fruits, eggplants for barbecue, green peppers, leeks, and potatoes.

We also got a lot of mutton and beef.

When a few people got there, Sister Ling had already set the table.

This time everyone came, including Sister Le Qin, Sister Sang, and even Sister Lin Wan came with her husband and children.

Sister Lin Wan’s husband has recently become addicted to fishing. He even took a fishing rod and prepared to catch a few fish from a nearby small pond, which would be perfect for grilling.

As soon as the children arrived at the place, they started running around and playing like crazy.

Little Xingxing is the oldest among them. She knows how to take care of her younger siblings.

She helps distribute the snacks that the children want, acting like an older sister.

"We haven't gotten together for a long time. I feel that after this gathering, we probably won't be able to get together for a long time." Jiuxiang looked at the lively children running around, not afraid of the heat. It was the first time for several women to get together like that.

"Why? When autumn comes and the weather is cooler, I'll treat you all again." Wang Leqin said with a smile.

"We can't get together. Hanhan and his wife are going to study abroad next year, and they will be gone for several years." Sister Ling reminded with a smile.

"Oh, yes, it is true that we can't get together."

"I brought some coffee. Would you like to try it?" Sister Sang said with a smile, holding a can of coffee.

"There's no hot water here." Jiuxiang said

"I'll get it for you." Lin Wan said, taking a thermos and going to Brother Lin's orange orchard to get hot water.

"Lingzi spent a lot of money today and prepared so many delicious foods." Qin Sang smiled and helped Sister Ling prepare the ingredients.

Jiuxiang and Leqin were holding dumplings and putting an iron plate on the grill to make iron plate dumplings for the children.

Ying Han helped set up two small tables.

"I invited everyone to dinner today for a purpose. I'm currently managing property management while also working at the factory. I can't handle both. Now, some of my colleagues at the factory know that I'm doing two jobs at the same time. Some of them don't like it and have reported it to my boss. I'm worried about what to do."

"You can't have your cake and eat it too. Sister Ling, you're doing so well at the property management company and making a lot of money. If your factory isn't doing well, just quit. Look at me. I quit my teaching position at school to write novels. Look at me now. I'm concentrating on one thing, which is pretty good."

"Jiuxiang, I'm different from you. You're talented. With a little effort, you set up a magazine. And those novels you wrote, wow, I was fascinated by them. They're so well written. I can't do that. I don't have that talent. I'm just a workshop director in the factory. Let's not say I have any special abilities, but I'm doing well among the staff. Now someone has reported me, and even the leaders are suppressing it for me.

You say that all the state-owned factories are going out of business and a large number of workers have been laid off, but our factory is still running steadily and its performance has been very good.

To be honest, I don’t want to leave either.”

"Lingzi, what are your plans now? Do you want us to come up with a solution that will satisfy both parties?" Wang Leqin asked.

"I don't know. I'm stuck here, so I want you to help me think about what I should do."

"This matter is really difficult to handle. You are an ordinary person and you don't have any ability to clone yourself, so you definitely can't be strong." Jiuxiang said.

"Sister Ling, I think you can quit your factory job and go into business to manage your property management company. If you manage your property management company well, you can achieve great things in the future."

"Yes, Hanhan is right. Just like us in business, we know how much profit there is and how much room for future development there is. In business, there are gains and losses, and making money can be very scary. Lingzi, you should be very clear about this." Qin Sang reminded her. After he finished speaking, he saw Lin Wan coming over and pulled her to agree, "If you don't believe me, ask our most profitable person here, Sister Lin Wan."

Lin Wan looked at them in confusion. While she was pouring water, everyone was chatting?

Sister Ling told her story again. Lin Wan listened and nodded, agreeing with Ying Han and Qin Sang's suggestions.

"The factory is good, and it has a future. If I work there longer and bring some benefits to the factory, I might even be able to get a job there one day.

But a factory manager can only make a few hundred thousand yuan a year, which is considered a lot. But the property project you are working on now has great potential.

The property market has been booming in recent years, so property management will be essential. If you do a good job, you can earn millions or even tens of millions of dollars a year in profits.”
