Chapter 316 Wrapping Zongzi
As for the third son's family, those three children were so well-raised and educated that she could only envy them.
Is this the difference between growing up in the city and growing up in the village?
Don't be fooled by the fact that it seems like only the second daughter is the main breadwinner in the third son's family.
But the third daughter's connections, and the company's accounts.
Although the eldest brother doesn't understand these things, he always takes the initiative to help after get off work in the evening or on Sundays.
Even the whole zongzi thing was his idea.
However, his suggestion was to buy it outside.
However, my fourth sister-in-law went outside and bought quite a few things, only to find that the material in this bag was either not sturdy enough.
The solid ones are just too expensive.
So the sisters-in-law discussed it and decided to find a woman from the village to do it.
Anyway, back when I was running a farmhouse inn in Jiangcun.
Even before this time of year, every family makes a lot of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).
Back then, guests would not only taste the food in Jiangcun, but also take some home with them.
Speaking of the craft of making zongzi.
Anyway, the women of Jiangcun are definitely no less capable than the vendors selling zongzi in the market.
I heard that Anjia asked them to make zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) this time in order to give them as holiday gifts to customers and to provide holiday benefits to employees.
The women of Jiangcun responded enthusiastically.
Actually, they were already preparing to do it.
Making zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and sharing them with relatives during the Dragon Boat Festival has always been a tradition in Jiangcun.
Although they moved out of Jiangcun this year, they do not intend to give up this custom.
After dinner, An Songyu was unusually free from work.
She joined the village women and clumsily helped out.
She wasn't entirely unfamiliar with making zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).
When there weren't many zongzi for sale outside.
Whether it was for relatives or for their own consumption, the meals were always prepared by several women from the apartment building together.
The An Songyu sisters also do almost the same thing as Bi Lizhu every year.
I learned how to wrap zongzi a long time ago.
With her hand speed, she definitely can't compare to the women in the village.
An Songyu was also quite puzzled. They were clearly talking while wrapping zongzi, so how come nothing was delayed?
"It's almost June now, how's the construction of our resettlement housing going?" This is what those who haven't been to Xinlin Village recently are asking.
"The buildings in our Jiangcun area are being built the fastest. I heard that we can take possession of our houses as early as the first half of next year."
"The first half of next year, that's pretty fast!"
"Of course!"
"But that building is no different from the one in Xinlin Village!" Upon hearing this, the people who had been listening intently were somewhat disappointed.
They had lived in the resettlement houses in Xinlin Village before.
To be honest, it's not even as good as the old Jiangcun, let alone the Happiness Garden where they live now.
"Why are you worrying so much? Are you planning to move back from here?" someone immediately reminded him.
"That's true!" The group, who had been feeling disappointed, suddenly realized and couldn't help but laugh.
Fortunately, they acted quickly and bought a house here with the An family.
But some people haven't forgotten what happened to An Songyu and the others:
"Qionghua, when will construction begin at Fengyin Bay?"
“I see that the second phase of Happiness Garden is about to go on sale. If there isn’t enough time to renovate the other side, we can start with the second phase of Happiness Garden.”
"I don't think so! I saw that some of the workers in the second wave of renovations have already finished their work."
"Should we arrange for them to go to Windwhisper Bay first?"
As he spoke, the man immediately looked at An Songyu.
An Songyu put down a rice dumpling she had just wrapped.
After taking a closer look at the woman who had asked the question, he realized what was going on.
Isn't that the mother of the small business owner who works as a tile setter, accompanied by a group of relatives?
No wonder they know so much about the renovation progress at Happiness Garden.
"The materials for Fengyin Bay haven't been finalized yet, have they?" An Songyu asked, pretending not to know.
The women looked at each other in bewilderment.
This matter wasn't handled by those few families, so naturally they weren't very clear about it.
But it's okay, someone immediately patted their chest and assured them:
"We'll inquire about this as long as we have the manpower to do the renovations."
An Songyu twitched her lips slightly, but didn't say anything more.
She already knew they couldn't escape this fate at Fengyin Bay.
Fortunately, after An Jianguo and the others were able to free up some of their time, they were indeed not short of manpower.
The people of Jiangcun are known for their strong work ethic.
It had only been a day, and Jiang Wenlin had already brought his men to find An Songyu.
The whole of Jiangcun has heard that the An family recently took on a big project.
Even when they were working, people from Jiangcun would follow along to broaden their horizons.
I heard that a villager from Jiangcun saw with his own eyes that the three mu of land was just for building a house for his own family.
After the relocation, the ostentatious atmosphere that had been difficult to control in Jiangcun was significantly reduced.
Of course, this only represents a portion of them.
There is still a small group of people for whom no amount of stimulation has any effect.
Shortly after they sat down, Jiang Wenlin got straight to the point:
"Ayu, I heard from the villagers that some of your staff have been freed up?"
An Songyu twitched her lips slightly, but did not deny it.
Many of the older workers on her team are skilled in a variety of areas.
When they take on apprentices, they never intend to have them learn only one thing.
Therefore, it's not entirely accurate to say that their staff is completely idle.
However, the renovation of the second phase of Happiness Garden does not need to be rushed.
We can actually free up a batch of people who had already completed the previous steps.
Seeing An Songyu's attitude, Jiang Wenlin breathed a slight sigh of relief.
To be honest, if Jiang Jianguo and the others hadn't been absent, he really wouldn't have been willing to come looking for An Songyu.
It's not that An Songyu is difficult to talk to.
Rather, each generation has its own way of communicating.
When he saw An Songyu, aside from business, he didn't know where to begin.
"These are the renovation materials that the villagers have compiled to determine which are suitable for use in the surrounding area." Jiang Wenlin gestured to the person who came with him to hand the items to An Songyu.
An Songyu actually knew this person.
He was one of the first people from Jiangcun to follow along when it came to home renovation.
Moreover, he is someone who is curious about everything and is definitely willing to learn anything.
He even did jobs like tiling.
However, he was not seen during the second batch of renovation training.
An Songyu didn't seem to care much.
After all, after the demolition and relocation of Jiangcun residents, not only did every family have a considerable amount of savings, but also many others.
Moreover, as time went by, each family gradually found its own way of life.
Instead of when they first moved out of Jiangcun, each family had no idea what the future held.
That's why so many people from Jiangcun came over when Happiness Garden was being renovated.
However, An Songyu looked at the not-so-neat handwriting in the notebook with a bit of helplessness.
The content is quite detailed.
That's right... An Songyu really had an incredibly difficult time recognizing these characters.
The person who came was quite perceptive.
After watching An Songyu struggle to even finish one page, he simply came over and started explaining.
Okay, now An Songyu realized what was going on.
This person not only writes with flowing strokes, but is also very skilled at using abbreviations and cursive writing.
The contents of this notebook are practically a code.
Without his explanation, it would be incredibly difficult to understand.
With his personal guidance, it became exceptionally clear.
