Employees from Nanshi can come to work on the 18th day of the first lunar month.
They have so many days of vacation because they didn't rest during regular holidays; they used all of it for the Chinese New Year holiday.
This way, I can stay at home a little longer.
People in Yanjing (Beijing) start work on the eighth day of the first lunar month because they usually have a short annual leave.
Everyone agreed with He Tiantian's arrangement.
At the same time, He Tiantian also mailed New Year's gifts to her relatives and friends.
Today, we had the addition of Chief Engineer Sun's family, and He Tiantian sent an especially large amount.
During her holiday, He Tiantian was settling the year-end accounts, a smile on her face the whole time.
"How's the profit today?" Huo Yingjie asked. The abacus had been ticking all afternoon, and he guessed that He Tiantian had done the calculations several times already; he was tired of hearing it.
He Tiantian looked at the ledger and smiled, saying, "The profits are not bad. The total net profit is 890,000. I will withdraw the money tomorrow and send it to my aunt and sister-in-law together when my parents-in-law return to Beijing."
They each received 10%, meaning Song Chunli and Zhao Huanhuan each received 89,000 yuan.
"Their investment has been recovered." Huo Yingjie smiled. "Alright, that's enough to give the people at the old house an explanation."
“Yes!” He Tiantian said, “After a year of hard work, I can finally have a good rest.”
"It's a pity I can't go out with you," Huo Yingjie said with some regret. Actually, his leg was almost fully healed, but others didn't know that, so the cast on his leg would have to wait another two months before it could be removed.
"This is our first New Year in Yanjing, and we're not going anywhere," He Tiantian said. "By the way, Yuanchao's health is recovering well, and he should be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow. They're staying in the courtyard they bought. I went to see them, and it's very well-maintained. I also sent them 20 jin of braised pork, two braised chickens, a braised duck, and all sorts of snacks. As for the rest, your unit provided them, so I didn't arrange anything else."
"Thank you for your hard work, my dear wife," Huo Yingjie said. "We're not going anywhere this year; we'll stay home."
This is fine too.
The next day, He Tiantian took out 200,000 yuan, put it in her car, and drove to pick up Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang.
Huo Yingjie couldn't go to pick up his parents-in-law, but He Tiantian insisted on doing so.
He Tiantian waited at the exit, listening to the train station staff announce through a loudspeaker that the train had arrived, and then she stood on tiptoe to look inside.
A short while later, Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang came out with their luggage.
"Dad, Mom!" He Tiantian raised her hand and shouted loudly. Today, He Tiantian was wearing a bright red down jacket and her hair was tied up, making her very eye-catching.
As soon as Jiang Lifang and Huo Zhekun got off the train, they saw He Tiantian.
I'm just a little curious, it's the weekend, why didn't my son come to pick me up?
Maybe I was working overtime, so I didn't pay much attention.
"It's so cold, thank you for coming to pick us up. Let's go." Jiang Lifang said.
"Okay, Mom, let me help you with your luggage," He Tiantian said with a smile. Although her mother-in-law didn't have much luggage, the train journey was tiring, and He Tiantian wanted to make it easier for her.
"It's alright, it's just a little bit, it's not heavy," Jiang Lifang said. "Let's hurry up, we're hungry."
The food on the train didn't taste good, and Jiang Lifang, thinking she would be home soon, didn't eat breakfast.
"Yes, the car is parked outside," He Tiantian said. "We'll be home in a little while."
He Tiantian opened the car door and let her parents-in-law get in. Then she put the luggage in the trunk.
"Sweetie is doing well, she can drive now." Huo Zhekun smiled. The car looks nice too, but he was very happy thinking that the cars produced by the Nanshi car factory would be launched next spring.
This is the most brilliant achievement in his political career.
“Yes, it’s convenient for commuting to and from get off work, and it’s also convenient for taking the kids out to play,” He Tiantian replied. “We can just drive there, and we can bring a lot of things with us.”
Children can carry more things when they travel than adults.
“That’s good. I have to work in Yanjing, take care of the kids, and run the business,” Jiang Lifang said. “What about Yingjie? Is he working overtime?”
He Tiantian looked somewhat embarrassed and said, "Mom and Dad, it's like this. A while ago, something happened at Yingjie's workplace. He was injured and fractured a bone. He's recuperating at home."
"Huh?" Jiang Lifang was taken aback. "What exactly happened?"
He Tiantian was driving and said with a wry smile, "I don't know the specifics either. Let Yingjie tell you when we get home. I originally wanted to send you a telegram, but my grandparents said that Yingjie's injury wasn't serious and wouldn't let me, so you wouldn't have to take time off work and worry."
"Is it really not serious?" Jiang Lifang was still worried.
"Alright, Lifang, if it were serious, they would have sent us a telegram already. The fact that they didn't tell us means it's not a big deal." Huo Zhekun was optimistic; no news was good news.
Jiang Lifang thought about it and agreed, saying, "When we get back, I'll ask Yingjie again. Tiantian, you can drive with peace of mind."
Seeing that her mother-in-law had stopped asking, He Tiantian was finally relieved. She was just afraid that if her mother-in-law kept asking, she wouldn't know how to answer. She decided to let Huo Yingjie explain everything himself.
When they arrived home, the two children ran over, giggling and calling out, "Grandpa, Grandma..."
Seeing her grandson and granddaughter, Jiang Lifang temporarily forgot about her son's injury.
After standing in the yard for a while, He Tiantian quickly invited everyone inside.
Huo Yingjie also stood up with his cane and smiled, "Please forgive me for not being able to pick up my parents at the station."
Seeing her son like this, Jiang Lifang asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, just a little accident, a broken bone, but it doesn't hurt anymore, just a little itchy," Huo Yingjie said with a smile. "Mom, please don't be sad, otherwise I'll feel even sadder."
Huo Zhekun smiled and comforted his mother, "It's the New Year, Lifang, don't ask anymore. It's good that the child is alright."
"Okay, I won't ask anymore," Jiang Lifang said, wiping away her tears.
He Tiantian quickly cooked the noodles, added some cabbage leaves, and finally sliced some braised meat on top.
"Mom and Dad, dinner's ready." He Tiantian brought the food to the dining room and came over specifically to call them to eat.
"Let's go eat. Didn't you say you were hungry?" Huo Zhekun said, hoping to distract his wife from worrying about not telling them about it.
Parents are elders, so you can't complain about them. Otherwise, your wife might have a falling out with your son and daughter-in-law.
"Okay, let's eat first, I'm really hungry." Jiang Lifang smiled, and since her son was smiling ingratiatingly, she didn't mind.
Thankfully, my son is alright, that's good.
The couple each ate a large bowl of noodles.
Afterwards, since the two were not sleepy, they chatted with Huo Yingjie about what had happened in the past six months.
