"Oh, okay. Taking care of two children is definitely not easy."
Gu Shaoying tied on an apron, washed her hands, and helped her older brother cook.
After graduating from university, she designed clothes at Xia Enruo's company, and was so busy every day that she had no other free time.
They spend all day in the design studio studying the latest designs, or buying magazines to gain experience.
"How did your talks with Shaojun go?"
Gu Shaoxuan was still concerned about his girlfriend's marriage. She had already graduated from university and started working.
It's time to find a suitable partner and get married.
"It's fine. It's just that we're both busy, so we don't see each other as often."
"How's his business?"
"That's good. They've hired a few more people and bought a piece of land in the suburbs to build a waste recycling station."
In the three years since Wu Shaojun started his business, with the help and guidance of Xia Enruo, he has made great strides.
Xia Enru helped him establish long-term cooperative relationships with several universities in Yongning City.
There are plenty of old books, magazines, and newspapers in the school, and now Wu Shaojun has bought them all.
After being recycled and sorted, the waste was directly loaded into trucks and sent to recycling companies in the south, avoiding middlemen taking a cut and making a direct sale.
After making money, Wu Shaojun bought four large trucks and hired four drivers to deliver goods in shifts.
His recycling of old appliances extends to other surrounding cities, including the provincial capital.
It has now become the largest home appliance recycling and repair company in the province.
In addition, counters were specially set up in each of Xia Enruo's supermarkets, and the scale was twice as large as before.
Sales were incredibly good, and they even set up a dedicated after-sales department to repair the appliances they sold.
Seeing her brother's business growing bigger and bigger, Wu Meixia praised him to everyone she met.
I've long forgotten about whether I worked at the leather factory or not.
She can laugh in her dreams now. After so many years, she has finally turned her life around, and her colleagues will never dare to laugh at her behind her back again.
Wu Meixia is now truly grateful for the chance encounter with Xia Enruo; without the help of this god-sister, her family wouldn't be where it is today.
After Gu Zhiyuan returned to the provincial capital last time, he took the opportunity to say a few words in support of Wu Meixia.
It worked! Less than six months later, she was promoted again and is now the deputy director of the Yongning City Public Security Bureau.
She had been urging her younger brother, Wu Shaojun, to marry Gu Shaoying and hold a wedding, but Gu Shaoying wanted to wait another year.
"Little sister, it's not good for you two to be in a relationship and not be able to see each other every day. Try to visit him more often when you have free time. The more you see each other, the closer you'll become. The less you see each other, the less stable your relationship will be."
Career is career, and life is life. There's never enough money in this world; no matter how much you earn, there will always be someone richer than you. Contentment brings happiness.
Gu Shaoying pouted. Hearing her older brother's lecture reminded her of her father's nagging at home.
Although I know in my heart that this is for my own good, I'm almost immune to it after hearing it so many times.
"Brother, I understand. I just graduated, so I should prioritize my career. I don't want to let my sister-in-law down."
Besides, you spend most of your time in the military, and I haven't noticed any estrangement between you and your sister-in-law.
"My relationship with your sister-in-law is stronger than gold. After all, we've been through so much together, it's different from your relationships."
But what you said is quite right; you should prove yourself and not let your sister-in-law down.
Gu Shaoying nodded.
Xia Enruo was woken up from a deep sleep during dinner.
Gu Shaoying helped carry Gu Yicheng and Gu Xiyao downstairs, washed her hands, and placed them on chairs at the dining table.
Gu Yicheng, the older brother, was really hungry, so he grabbed a handful of vegetables and stuffed them into his mouth.
Before Gu Shaoxuan could stop him, the little guy had already swallowed him whole.
"Son, spit it out for Dad so you don't choke, there are peanuts in it."
However, Gu Yicheng had already eaten it, and Gu Shaoxuan was relieved only after checking for a long time and finding nothing wrong.
He directed his younger sister to sit beside the two children and take care of them while he served rice in the kitchen.
Xia Enru got out of bed, feeling sore all over.
Lower back pain, shoulder pain, hip pain... I feel like my body is falling apart.
She muttered under her breath:
"That Gu Shaoxuan really doesn't know his own strength. I'll never seek thrills again."
He was so happy, while I felt like my whole body had been rolled out with a rolling pin.
She went downstairs, and Gu Shaoxuan glanced at her secretly, giving her a wicked smile.
Xia Enru rolled her eyes at him and didn't say anything.
"Go ahead and gloat!!!"
When Gu Shaoying saw her sister-in-law coming over, she pushed a chair out for her to sit down.
"Sister-in-law, sit here. You must be exhausted today. I called you several times but you didn't answer. You were sleeping so soundly."
It seems my older brother was right; you're working too hard taking care of two kids.
Xia Enru sat to the side, feeling awkward yet still managing a smile.
"Exactly, taking care of kids is exhausting."
She took a bite of the pancake, frowned, glanced at her husband, and then continued chatting with her younger sister.
"How's the work at the company going? Actually, you could rest today; there's no need to work overtime."
Maybe you're full of energy right after graduation, but your sister-in-law, who's been in business for so long, just wants to slack off.
"Sister-in-law, I only realized after I started working that what I learned in school was just the tip of the iceberg. There are many things you only learn in society."
I'm afraid of falling behind, so I want to learn more advanced experiences. I see that clothing in Shanghai has a new look again.
I think we should incorporate some new design styles into our fall/winter collections this year; that would be more appealing to the general public.
Seeing how hard her younger sister was working, Xia Enruo felt that she was right to choose this profession, since working out of genuine passion never felt tiring.
