That night, Su Ranran called Xie Meihui.
Sure enough, Duan Xiaoxi took the child to find Xie Meihui.
Duan Xiaoxi helped raise Xie Meihui's two children, so the relationship between the two is naturally impeccable.
After learning that Zhang Deping had divorced her, she angrily scolded Zhang Deping for the entire night.
Duan Xiaoxi felt disgusted with the house given by Zhang Deping and didn't want to live in it.
She came to Xie Meihui with money and her child. She wanted to escape from the city that made her feel suffocated.
Move to another place and start a new life with your children.
He Wan once said that no matter how difficult life is, it will eventually pass, and there is nothing better than being alive, of course, if you live for yourself.
In the first half of her life, she was bullied by her family and had no rights.
When I met Zhang Deping, everything I did was considered for him.
For myself. I have never had this before.
When Zhang Deping proposed divorce, she was angry and unwilling, but she later came to terms with it.
Nothing is more important than her two children right now.
I heard that nowadays everyone can do business privately, and I can support myself and my two children with my own hands.
After much thought, I felt that if I did business in this city, I would definitely be seen by that vixen Zhang Deping.
She herself was not afraid, but she was afraid that the woman would dislike her and do something to her child.
So I thought about going to Xie Meihui and the others' place.
I have money, so I can find a house to rent there first.
Xie Meihui and her husband are both teachers, so it should not be difficult to find a school for their two children there.
She would set up a small stall and sell some snacks when the time came.
Many people say that the wontons she makes are delicious.
We're almost settled there now.
After He Wan knew about this, she quickly told Master Luo.
The family booked train tickets that day to go find their daughter.
She came here to invest in this project. Director Luo had something to do, so before leaving, she asked another person in charge of the unit to hand over to her.
So He Wan has been quite busy these two days.
Zhou Ting'an also happened to visit the old leader here.
Yaoyao sometimes follows her mother and sometimes follows her father.
She is so well-behaved that many people like her.
Especially Su Ranran and Xue Zhenzhen. Xue Zhenzhen still doesn’t have a partner, but when she saw He Wan’s child, she liked him very much.
She insisted on adopting her as her goddaughter.
So, seeing that He Wan and her husband were busy and he happened to have some free time these two days, he kidnapped their daughter.
Xue Zhenzhen took Yaoyao to see the art troupe, watch dances, listen to songs, and watch the evening party.
It’s more fun than her parents taking her out to eat delicious food.
Yaoyao was very happy. Xue Zhenzhen persuaded her to be her goddaughter and said that she would be able to visit her beautiful big sister often in the future.
Yaoyao just became someone's daughter in this way.
Xue Zhenzhen was extremely happy and specially invited He Wan and her husband, as well as Su Ranran and Wang Xiaorong and their husbands.
"He Wan, Yaoyao is my daughter now. Thank you so much for giving me such a beautiful daughter. Come, let me toast you."
He Wan glanced at her unhappily: "How dare you trick my daughter."
Su Ranran snorted softly at the side: "Zhenzhen is too smart now. I was thinking of adopting Yaoyao as my daughter, but she got there first."
When Zhou Ting'an heard Su Ranran's words, he felt that there was another person trying to snatch their daughter away, so he quickly said, "My daughter is very precious, you can't snatch her away again."
Su Ranran looked at Zhou Tingan's protective look and burst out laughing.
Wang Xiaorong also hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will soon have one at home."
When they heard Wang Xiaorong say this, He Wan and Su Ranran looked at Su Ranran in surprise.
Su Ranran shyly touched her belly and said, "It's been three months, but I'm still not pregnant."
He Wan said: "Sister Ranran, you are hiding it too well."
"I just saw that you were all busy, and because of Xiaoxi's matter, I didn't have time to tell you."
"How is Duan Xiaoxi? Did you recognize each other?"
He Wan didn't know either, as she hadn't seen Master Luo recently.
However, in the past few days, she and Zhou Ting'an bought several houses in Beijing.
At night, in the space, Lao Yun looked at her dozen houses and said, "There are three in the city, plus the one left by my parents, four in total.
I bought two old yards in the suburbs, they are very large and I plan to renovate them, as long as they don’t look too deserted. The suburbs are not far away, and I believe they can be planned out in a few years.
By then I can make a lot of money from selling the land. Once the planning is done, I will talk to the developer and ask for a few storefronts. Tsk, then I can just lie down and be a landlady."
Yun Shudai said: "It's good to be a landlady. You can make money just by lying down, and you don't have to worry about doing business to make money."
He Wan said: "But you have to find something to do. My only hobby in these two lives is making soap.
I have decided to buy a shop in Haishi. I will spend my time there making my own handmade soap.”
"I support you."
"Oh, by the way, I went to Jing City this time and saw a lot of changes. I saw dance halls and many high-end restaurants. Wow, it's developing so fast."
Bai Muyin said at the side: "These dance halls, cars, and electrical appliances should all be done by people behind the scenes.
You two have money but no power, so if you don’t want to cause too much trouble, it’s best not to touch it.”
He Wan's parents are both deceased. Although she has an acquaintance named Uncle Gu in Beijing, he is her only connection.
Zhou Ting'an had no relatives in Haishi.
Although there are many comrades, few of them are engaged in business.
Zhou Ting'an also agreed with Bai Muyin's reminder.
They are now a family of three, and even if He Wan does nothing, they can live a good life.
What's more, my wife has so much property.
Although the current business is very profitable, it is also stressful.
He could see that his wife was not someone who liked to work day and night.
He thought it would be a good idea for his wife to buy some house and land.
He Wan said, "I think so too. We have settled in Hai City for a long time, and it is mainly because we bought better things in Hai City. This side of Jing City, that's all."
After He Wan finished speaking, she told Lao Yun about Duan Xiaoxi's matter.
Yun Shudai wasn’t too surprised: “This isn’t usually the case in novels, I didn’t expect you to witness it.
Is Duan Xiaoxi willing to recognize them? Are there any real or fake daughters?"
“It’s not that dramatic, there’s no news yet, so we don’t know yet.
Lao Zhou and I will be back in a few days, and I don’t know if I can meet Duan Xiaoxi.”
"Oh, speaking of your things, I have something here too."
"What's that?"
"The judge I told you about before, Shen Jimeng, has signed a contract with the organizer. He should be recording now."
"She's going to be a judge?"
"Um."
"Forget it, never mind. Being a judge isn't that easy. I might as well go on a variety show.
Are there no good variety shows recently? "
"Yes, I don't want to go."
"Aren't you going to take your old White out for a walk again?"
"Forget it. That variety show a few years ago brought a lot of trouble to our lives. It has finally faded in recent years."
"Oh, Jiang Yi hasn't been filming much?"
"Well, the business is OK, but I don't think he's as wealthy as described in novels. It's still far behind my husband's personal business.
Let me tell you, Lao He.
Mu Yin has a stock account with 1 billion in it.
Guess what he told me?"
"What did you say?"
"He said that when he was 18, he used his own pocket money to register an account and bought a stock. A few years later, he made some money and bought another stock. Then he got busy and forgot about it. He didn't care about it for many years.
But when I looked at it last year, I didn't expect it to be that much money. The tone he used when he said it didn't seem to matter at all, which was really annoying."
"It's really infuriating. How can someone be so lucky that he can buy a stock and it appreciates in value without any care, and he can make so much money. My money now, alas, is getting less and less."
"Don't cry poor. You are investing now. In a few years, you will be counting money every day until your hands are tired."
"That's right, I plan to turn the building in Beijing into a business office building.
I think this project will be completed next year.
This time, a department came to me and asked me what plans they had. I said I hadn't.
As a result, he handed me a plan.
They want to rent the whole building for ten years. Tsk, ten years. "That's great. You're not often there, so it's a lot easier. How much are they prepared to pay?"
"Sixty thousand a year."
"Sixty thousand is a little too little."
"As I said, the price will go up as the market increases."
After hearing this, Bai Muyin turned around and asked Zhou Ting'an, "You don't have any cases."
Although Zhou Ting'an was in the team, he also paid some attention to it because of He Wan, fearing that his wife would suffer in this regard, and said: "There are a few people doing this in Hai City. This price is reasonable."
Bai Muyin said: "Then don't think about it, just rent it."
Zhou Ting'an smiled: "We also thought so."
The contract for this matter is already being drafted.
But He Wan was worried about the houses she bought.
I'm not here, so I have to trouble Uncle Gu.
She thought she could rent out the storefront before leaving.
But now no one asks about it, and even if they do, it’s too expensive and people are hesitant.
When He Wan was worrying, the developer of the storefront she had just bought suddenly came to her door.
She said that a businessman had taken a fancy to her storefront and wanted to rent it.
He Wan has to go to the urban construction department today and is busy.
Just let Zhou Tingan take the child over.
When I came back in the evening, He Wan laughed when I asked her, "What? It was rented by a Burger King. How many years was the contract signed?"
Zhou Ting'an showed her the contract and said, "The rent is one hundred per month, and the contract is signed for one year. Let them transfer the rent to your card every month."
He Wan laughed, and regardless of her daughter being beside her, she hugged his neck and kissed him: "You are such a great husband."
Zhou Xiyao exclaimed, said a few words shyly, covered her face and went straight out of her parents' room.
Zhou Xiyao is no longer surprised by such situations.
Zhou Ting'an was a little dizzy from being kissed by his wife, so he hugged her and said, "As long as you like it."
"That's right. Just the storefront is enough for us to live on, and I don't have to do anything every day."
Zhou Ting'an frowned and said, "Have you forgotten that we spent a lot of money to buy it? By this calculation, it will take ten years to get back the investment."
He Wan shook her head: "No, just wait and see, the rent may increase a lot every year."
No matter how much the prices rise, how high they can rise is not something Zhou Ting'an thinks is a good thing, but it is true that housing prices have risen rapidly in recent years.
He really didn't know how much profit this store could bring them every year because of its geographical location.
Of course, this is all later.
The project invested by Hewan is a new business district in Beijing.
The building she chose, although not in the best location, was still pretty good.
Now that a company has taken a fancy to the house and wants to rent it out, why wouldn’t she do it?
Fearing that something unexpected might happen, the people over there signed the contract this time.
Because the house will not be delivered until early next year, only a part of the deposit was given.
That’s not a small amount.
In a blink of an eye, she had finished her work in Beijing.
I was just thinking of asking Mr. Luo how the recognition of relatives is going.
Unexpectedly, the day before they left, Duan Xiaoxi came to their house alone.
It has been many years since we last met. Duan Xiaoxi, now looking a little older, is no longer the same person she was in the first two years of marriage.
"Xiao Xi."
"Sister Wanwan, long time no see."
"Long time no see." He Wan said, and walked up to hug her.
Duan Xiaoxi's eyes instantly turned red.
After bringing her into the house, He Wan introduced Zhou Ting'an and her daughter to her.
"It's great to see you happy. I thought I would never see you again."
He Wan sighed and talked about what happened to her over the years.
Then he asked, "Have you seen your parents?"
Duan Xiaoxi nodded, with a bright smile on her face: "Sister Wanwan, thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that I was not the biological daughter of the Duan family."
"This can only be called fate. I'm very happy for you to see you find your family. By the way, why didn't you bring the children?"
"They are helping my grandparents clean up the house. My parents gave me a house and we just moved in."
"It seems they treat you well."
Duan Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Well, my parents, my eldest brother and his wife are all very nice. They knew that I didn't want to live in the house that Zhang Deping gave me, so they bought me a new one near home. My eldest brother also said that the two children can go to school nearby, and it's very close.
My dad said he was going to find me a job, but I refused. ”
He Wan asked, "What's wrong? The child is grown up, isn't the work good?"
Duan Xiaoxi smiled: "Sister Wanwan, you also know that I am not very educated."
"How can you be considered uneducated? Haven't you already learned junior high school knowledge? Junior high school students are also very popular nowadays."
“I was thinking of starting a small business.”
It’s not that she doesn’t want to work. It’s just that in recent years some factories have laid off employees due to poor performance.
And the salary is not high. A few dozen yuan a month is a lot for a child to go to school, but it is a bit difficult to raise two children.
“Doing business is good, but it’s hard work.”
"It's okay to be a little bit hard. I've been running a wonton stall for a month at Sister Meihui's place, and business is good."
He Wan knew that Duan Xiaoxi was doing very well in Chaos, so she nodded and said, "That's great. You have to run a business and set up a stall. It's tiring to be outside in the wind and sun."
"I'm not afraid."
Duan Xiaoxi is back and she always wants to meet her old friends.
Xue Zhenzhen took a break a few days ago, went out to work for a few days, and just came back today.
Several people went to Duan Xiaoxi's new home together.
Luo's parents prepared a small courtyard for their daughter. Although it was a bit shabby, it would be very nice after some renovation.
He Wan was indeed calling her Duan Xiaoxi in her heart, no, she should be called Luo Yue now.
I'm happy for her. A yard in such a location will be very valuable in the future.
It just so happened that they were going to move in furniture today, so two grown men, Zhou Ting'an and Wang Xiaorong, helped to move things around.
Luo Yue pointed at the small tricycle in the yard and said, "This is what my brother bought for me from the market. I was thinking of setting up a stall at the intersection.
My dad insisted on finding me a storefront.”
Su Ranran said, "It's better to find a storefront that won't be exposed to the wind and rain. Do you want to go to our hospital and have a look? We have quite a few patients in our hospital, and people come and go a lot. The small wontons you make will be suitable for patients to eat."
Xue Zhenzhen said: "Yes, the hospital has a lot of people. I have to go and try it when I have time."
Xue Zhenzhen and Duan Xiaoxi didn't have many opportunities to meet each other, but they had met before and were from the educated youth camp, so they became familiar with each other.
Besides, she hates those scumbag men the most.
Luo Yue thought about it and agreed: "Then I'll go over and take a look tomorrow."
Su Ranran smiled and said, "My second aunt has a store over there. I'll ask for you tonight. I heard her say a few days ago that the person who used to buy groceries there is no longer doing it. I don't know if it's been rented out, but the location is pretty good anyway."
He Wan smiled at the side: "I don't think I have anything to help you with. But I also have a store here, but it's far from here, you can also go and have a look."
The storefront that He Wan mentioned is near a factory area, where there are many people living. It has not been rented out yet.
Luo Yue said: "Okay, I'll take a look."
Luo Yue also acted quickly. The next day, she first went to Su Ranran's place, and then went to He Wan's store.
The space on He Wan's side is not very big, but she knows that He Wan will definitely not take her money.
He found a reason to refuse and rented the small shop from Su Ranran's second aunt for fifty yuan a month.
The rent is quite expensive, but there are really a lot of people here, so fifty dollars a month is still easy to pay.
The Luo family are all public servants. They originally wanted to compensate their daughter by finding her a good job that wouldn't require so much work.
The salary isn’t much, but it’s stable, and I have the children and they are there for me.
With so many people in the family, raising two children is not a problem.
Luo Yue knew that her family wanted to compensate her, but she knew that the safest way was to rely on herself.
Fortunately, she ran her own small business, so her parents didn’t feel ashamed and helped her a lot.
When the small wonton shop opened, several people went to support her.
Xiyao took a bite of wonton and hummed with enjoyment: "Mom, Aunt Yueyue's wonton is really delicious."
"That's right, otherwise why would you be so confident to open a store?"
Business was good on the first day of opening.
The wontons were wrapped in advance. She was the only one who made the wontons and cleaned the table.
She felt that the business had just opened and she didn't know the situation yet, so she hadn't hired anyone. If she really was too busy in the future, it wouldn't be too late for her to find someone.
Seeing her like this, although He Wan didn't say anything, she was still very happy for her in her heart.
In her opinion, this is how a woman should be, working hard to earn money is beautiful.
As for that Zhang Deping, he's a bastard, it's better not to have him.
