Xia Ruzheng suspected that Wang Fang would not have a good experience after returning, but she didn't care. She thought it was all Wang Fang's fault, and she had the nerve to put it on her head. Xia Ruzheng had originally planned to keep it a secret, and Wang Fang's husband had no intention of saying anything, but Wang Fang was so ungrateful.
The store was quiet for a while, and Wen Zhichao's tone became much calmer. He said, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Xia Ruzheng picked up a piece of meat for him and said, "You're so busy, how can you have time to tell you? Haven't I solved it all? You, just focus on your own things. I won't suffer any loss. Besides, Haichao is here too!"
Haichao had to nod repeatedly with rice in his mouth to show his determination.
Wen Zhichao finally revealed a hint of a smile and said, "Don't hide it from me. If you're angry, I'll vent it on your behalf. If you've suffered a loss, I'll seek justice for you."
Xia Ruzheng nodded with a smile, and the other people looked very moved by Brother Chao's sweet words. Wen Zhichao kicked someone.
Xia Ruzheng also asked Wen Zhichao to apologize to the old customer. After all, the customer had suffered an unexpected disaster, and the problem lay with Wang Fang. At the time, in order to save Wang Fang's face, Xia Ruzheng didn't even have the chance to say sorry to the customer.
The other party said that he didn't care, but he didn't see them coming over for dinner. I guess he felt embarrassed and refused to come.
Xia Ruzheng could only sigh. He had good intentions but ended up doing something bad, and no one had benefited from it. He had to learn from this lesson.
As the Chinese New Year is getting closer, it’s time to prepare to go home for the New Year.
Xia Ruzheng slowly gathered things, buying a piece of clothing for one sister-in-law today, a pair of shoes for the other sister-in-law tomorrow, and slowly he had everything he needed. He bought thick cotton-padded jackets for the elderly in both families. The winter in his hometown was still quite cold and damp, and the elderly couldn't stand the cold.
In addition to family members, some relatives also need to buy some. These don’t need to be bought for anyone specifically, so Xia Ruzheng prepared some specialties such as dried seafood, which are still rare items in the mainland.
The weather is getting colder. It is better to set up a breakfast stall this year than last year. At least I don’t have to suffer from the cold wind. In winter, Tian Nier’s bun business is better. Eating hot buns in winter can warm up both physically and mentally.
Tian Nier felt a little embarrassed, as if she had stolen Xia Ruzheng's business, but Xia Ruzheng knew that this was just everyone's choice, not because of anything Tian Nier had done.
"Have you prepared everything for your New Year's celebration this year?"
In a rare moment of free time, Tian Nier and Xia Ruzheng sat together to knit. In her previous life, no one wore Xia Ruzheng's sweaters, as they thought she was old-fashioned. In this life, everyone praised her sweaters for being beautiful and comfortable.
"It's almost done. Just thinking about a few big bags gives me a headache." Xia Ruzheng said with a smile.
It took several woven bags to fit everything in. Xia Ruzheng felt overwhelmed just thinking about having to squeeze into the train with such large woven bags.
Tian Nier said: "We won't go back. The ticket is expensive and tiring."
Xia Ruzheng knew about Tian Nier's family situation. As long as the couple sent more money back home, the family situation would improve.
"If you miss your child, just ask your family to send photos. When you make more money, you can bring the child over. Maybe he can even go to school here!"
Tian Nier said, "I thought so too. I asked my family to send over photos of the elderly and children. But bringing the child over is still troublesome, and we're busy. What if we don't keep an eye on him...won't we regret it?"
In fact, Tian Nier really misses her child, but she just doesn't say it out loud.
Xia Ruzheng felt pity for her. He thought that if he had a child in the future, he wouldn't leave it at home with his mother-in-law. Not only would he think, but he couldn't guarantee how the child would turn out. Besides, his mother-in-law had several grandchildren, and if something happened to one of them, she would regret it terribly. He needed to talk this over with Wen Zhichao. Xia Ruzheng made up his mind.
"Don't say that. Who can say what will happen in the future? Besides, this is the city. If the child can go to school here, wouldn't it be much better than the teacher and school at home? Don't you want to raise a college student?"
That made Tian Nier's heart flutter. Yes, she'd passed by a school here before. The building was beautiful, the gate was so grand, and the teachers looked much better than that old man with a sparse, rat-like beard back home. Maybe... maybe... Tian Nier's heart warmed. If her child became a university student, why would she have to work so hard like herself? That was a life of eating the government's food!
