"Aunt Zhou, if you don't bring your child tomorrow, I won't let you set up your stall here." Jiang Xue had no choice but to pressure Aunt Zhou like this, otherwise she would definitely feel embarrassed to delay her business.
“This…” Aunt Zhou’s tears fell uncontrollably. “Okay, I’ll bring the child tomorrow.”
"I'm going home tonight, and I'll pick you up from your house first thing tomorrow morning. Pack your things and come stay in my dorm," Gu Xiaoling instructed Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou's tears flowed uncontrollably, like a floodgate bursting open.
Jiang Xue felt sorry for him; she couldn't hide the pain on her face, and he probably still had quite a few injuries.
"Where did you go?" Ji Chen couldn't help but ask after waiting for Jiang Xue for a long time without seeing her.
"An uncle invited us to dinner," Shao Heng said innocently, leaning against Ji Chen's chest.
Ji Chen's eyes turned cold as he glanced sideways at Jiang Xue. "Which uncle?"
Seeing this, Xiaoling quickly tried to smooth things over, "Oh, who else could it be? Just a customer."
In fact, Ji Chen had already guessed that it was Sun Ze'an. He hadn't forgotten Sun Ze'an's provocation to his face before, but waited for Jiang Xue to speak up herself.
"It's Teacher Sun, they keep calling him Uncle Teacher Sun," Shao Heng answered eagerly, as if he wanted to take credit.
Xiaoling touched her forehead. "I have something to do, I'll go now."
Ji Chen's face instantly darkened. He picked up Shao Heng and placed him on the front of the bicycle. "Let's go back."
Seeing that it was almost time and that she still needed to check on the progress of the work at the factory, Jiang Xue had no choice but to go back with Ji Chen.
The two rode their own bikes the whole way. When Ji Chen saw that Jiang Xue was catching up, he didn't wait for her at all and rode off quickly.
Jiang Xue shook her head upon seeing it, "Childish stuff."
When she got home, Jiang Xue didn't think about cooking right away because it was still early. She went to the factory and looked around, and saw that everyone's work was progressing well.
"Aunt Zhao and Aunt Wang, thank you for your hard work these past few days."
"Of course, of course."
"Wang Jing, you should go home early today," Jiang Xue instructed worriedly. "Everyone won't have to work overtime. Anyway, we'll wear these clothes next spring, so there's no need to rush the production."
As Jiang Xue spoke, she sorted through the fabrics that the wholesaler had delivered that day. She led a few workers to start cutting the fabrics. "We'll find five people to make these bed sheets and duvet covers separately. Aunt Wang, I'm leaving this to you."
Okay.
Before the sun had even set, Wang Jing left work early amidst the envious glances of everyone.
Jiang Xue tidied up and prepared to go home to cook dinner. She remembered that she still had some of the beef tallow hot pot base she had made before.
When she got home, she found that Ji Chen and the two children were gone, and she wondered where Ji Chen had taken the two children.
She estimated they would be back soon, so she ran to the kitchen only to realize she hadn't bought anything that day. She had no choice but to grab her shopping basket and run to the vegetable garden.
I'm thinking of using hot pot broth to cook some vegetables, and then cooking something better tomorrow.
When Jiang Xue arrived at the vegetable garden, she was in a dilemma. There was nothing there; it was completely bare.
Luckily, I can make money now, otherwise I would starve to death with my vegetable growing and digging skills.
Jiang Xue, carrying a vegetable basket and two yuan on her person, ran to the edge of the field. As lunchtime approached, people would always go to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.
Before she even left the village with her basket, she saw Grandma Li chopping cabbages.
"Grandma, can I buy some vegetables in your yard?"
