She praised Jiang Yan a lot, and it was obvious that Jiang Yan held a very important position in her heart. Everyone else had to stand aside.
What son or not, they are all just Jiang Yan's foil.
Jiang Yan is her biological daughter.
Zhang Yulan was surprised when she heard this and said, "Xiao Yan, can you mix skin care products?"
Jiang Yan brought Chen Min and Fang Cui in. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "Auntie, do you want to take care of yourself? Wait a moment, I'll take a look at you and adjust a suitable one for you. After three to five months of maintenance, you will see the effect.
I'm not going to be rude to you. I'm very good at developing skin care products, and I'm planning to open a factory in the future to specialize in research.
Everyone loves beauty, and I think the market is quite large. If you find it useful, please promote it to me."
Lu Li was afraid that Jiang Yan would abandon him, so he quickly said, "Sister-in-law, remember to let me invest. I like to follow you around. I can manage the business for you and let you be a hands-off boss."
Jiang Yan glanced at him and said, "It depends on my mood."
Lu Li wanted to say something else, but when he met Lu Xiao's cold gaze, he paused and said with a smile, "Okay, sister-in-law."
Lu Xiao was finally satisfied. He hated people who had no sense of propriety and liked to stick to their wives. Didn’t he have a wife himself?
Song Jingtian pulled Lu Li aside and said, "He's a walking vinegar jar. Stay away from my sister-in-law, or he might shoot you."
Lu Li blinked and said in a rather cute tone, "I'm his biological brother. Will he beat me to death?"
Lu Xiao's voice sounded in his ears, giving him goosebumps.
"I can."
Lu Li's face instantly fell, and he said resentfully, "Are you still my brother? How could you have the heart to do that to me? I'm so sad."
Lu Xiao had an expressionless face and kicked forward. Lu Li subconsciously dodged, hehe, the kick missed.
He said in a mean voice: "Brother, you are not good enough...ah...!"
The next second, he was slapped on the back of his head. Lu Li was about to cry, "Are you trying to sneak attack me?"
Lu Xiao sneered, "All's fair in war. Who told you to be so stupid? Hurry up and scoop up some rice."
Lu Li said aggrievedly, "Okay, let's eat first."
Song Jingtian sat over and greeted Fang Cui, Chen Min and He Miao. The three were familiar with her. They talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Gangwa, Tiewa and Shengli, along with the triplets and other brothers and sisters, were playing and fighting in the yard.
The neighbors heard this and kept muttering, "Didn't they say her hometown is in Yun Province? It's not easy for her to come here. If she came here, how much would the fare be? She must be from a wealthy family. The poor ones don't dare to go out."
"There's no need to bring those kids. They're really traveling with the whole family. Miao Xiuying said she didn't make much, but I think she made a lot of money and wanted to prevent us neighbors from making money for her. Hey, she's still so stingy even in the city. Who will follow her in the future? Only the Su family and Aunt Guihua can get along with her."
The one holding the big bowl said while eating, "They are rich, why are you jealous? We poor people have our own way of living. If I were rich, I would go out and travel. In my life, I have never been to other provinces except Beijing.
Don't be so jealous, be careful if this gets to Miao Xiuying's ears. She'll never let you go. We all know she has a bad temper. Why don't you two learn your lesson? Aren't you just mean-spirited people? "
"The food she cooks is so delicious that I want to swallow my tongue. If I didn't have shame, I would have brought the bowl to her house."
"If you ask me, the only thing they do well is their braised food. The rest is just so-so. Didn't Miao Xiuying also run a shop? I really don't know what those people who queue up to eat there are thinking.
Aren't the chefs at state-owned restaurants better? I think you're all just following the trend. It's absolutely impossible for your food to be that delicious. I won't support his business.
She's doing well, but she still looks down on us. I hate people like that."
Those who hate others for having something and laugh at others for not having something all wish you were as poor as them. Most people have this mentality.
"Don't be so jealous. We're all neighbors here. If they're doing well, does that bother you? If you had the ability, you'd be even more outspoken than her.
I am not good at my craft, otherwise I would like to set up a stall outside. I used to think that this was cutting off the tail of capitalism, but now it seems that we are unable to let go.
The government has clearly relaxed its grip on the industry and isn't really regulating it anymore. I can try making fried rice tomorrow. If it works, I'll be thankful."
"Hey, doesn't the Lu family sell marinade bags? Have you tried it? Mother Su got it from her house. It seems like business is pretty good, so I'm a little tempted to try it."
Everyone thought about it and decided, "Then I'll buy some too. I'll use the soup base to mix with rice and make it delicious."
"Do you really want to give her money? What if the stew turns out not to be good? Wouldn't that be a waste? I think it's better to forget it."
A straightforward auntie waved her hand and said, "It's not a big deal. I want to sell it. Others can do it, so why can't I? Stop looking back."
My whole family depends on my husband for support. We are struggling financially and don't even have enough rice at home. I have to reduce the burden on my husband.
I can't compare to you. The old man has a pension, and the man is a small leader in the factory. You can just sit and play cards, and there's nothing to worry about. People can't be compared. It's just that my life is hard, so I have to work harder. "
As soon as she said that, the others agreed and planned to go to Jiang Yan to buy the marinade packets tomorrow.
There is no time to lose, so act quickly. If someone intercepts them, they will have no place to cry.
If you want to accomplish great things, you cannot hesitate. Hesitation will lead to failure. This is what Miao Xiuying always says, and it makes a lot of sense.
What Miao Xiuying didn't know was that a large wave of business was about to come to her.
The family had a meal happily, and then sat in the yard eating melon seeds and peeling peanuts. It was very lively.
After Miao Xiuying finished braising the food every day, she would let Lu Jianguo go to the stall while she stayed at home to accompany Zhang Yulan.
Zhang Yulan felt a little embarrassed. "Has our coming here delayed you from making money? When are we leaving for Northeast China? I can't wait any longer."
Didn't you say we were going to catch wild ginseng? I've already prepared sacks. Since there are a lot of us, we can each dig a sack and carry it home when the time comes."
Miao Xiuying laughed so hard, "What kind of white radish do you think it is? You dig up a sack of them and carry them home. You're lucky if you can dig up three or five."
Ginseng is very precious, especially the ones that are very old, which are hard to come by.
Of course, with Jiang Yan involved, anything could happen. After all, she is God's own daughter, so why would he chase her and feed her?
When she was on the island, she always returned with a full load every time she went out to sea. This was all thanks to Jiang Yan, because she had the blessing of the Dragon Mother.
Jiang Yan ate the sweet watermelon and said slowly, "Mom, you're exaggerating. Going to the sea also requires skills. I make a living by my ability. Of course, luck is also a part of it."
Lu Li said truthfully, "You're lucky. It's always a good idea to follow you. We'll definitely gain something. You'll be responsible for digging for treasures, and we'll be responsible for picking up the spoils."
