Chapter 156: Stench



Su Meijuan sighed and continued, "Besides, if this business was really that easy, wouldn't everyone open a shop? Don't worry about you laughing at us, but we only make enough money to eat every day from this shop. The good thing is that we don't have to work in the fields in the wind and rain to make a living, but business is always risky. If you're not careful, you can lose everything."

After hearing Su Meijuan's words, many people followed suit.

"That's the truth. There was a family in my mother's village who, because they were jealous of their neighbor opening a shop, bought a shop and started business. But within a month, the shop went bankrupt."

"Hey, my brother was so desperate to open a restaurant that my parents couldn't stop him. They emptied their savings to open a restaurant for him, but in the end, he lost everything. Because of this, my sister-in-law took the children back to her parents' home."

"Yes, yes, my relative..."

For a moment, everyone started talking about cases of business failure, which caused everyone to sigh.

Seeing that everyone's attention had been diverted, Su Meijuan hurriedly took Tang Dehou and his daughter home.

Although their family was about to move to the provincial capital, "Nishang" was still there, and she didn't want to bring trouble to her second brother and his wife's family.

Looking at the courtyard where she hadn't been back for a while, Su Meijuan's eyes were full of nostalgia.

I only heard her sigh: "I haven't been back for a while, I miss this place a lot."

"Mom, if you want to come back in the future, we can find time to come back and stay for a while."

"Okay." Su Meijuan curved her eyebrows. "Well, hurry up and pack up. After packing up, we still have to rush back."

After that, the family of three got busy.

However, in Tang Wanning's opinion, there was nothing left to clean up at home, because some food and daily necessities had already been moved to the courtyard in the county town.

As for those old clothes, Tang Wanning didn't plan to keep them. His family was in the clothing business anyway, so he could buy more when he got to the provincial capital.

So, after walking around the house, Tang Wanning went to find Su Meijuan.

I saw my parents were busy folding clothes. Look at the pile, it fills up the whole bed.

When Tang Wanning saw it, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch, because she saw the cotton pants she wore when she was a child among them.

"Mom, let's not take these things with us, okay?"

"How can that be possible? There are a lot of clothes in here that you, Xiaoxu, and Zaozao wore when you were little. When you have children in the future, you can give them to your children."

Hearing Su Meijuan's words, Tang Wanning's eyelids twitched.

But she could fully understand it. After all, her parents' generation had suffered so much, which was why they developed the good habit of diligence and thrift.

"Mom, things are different now than they were before. In the past, families were poor, so people kept these clothes.

But now that everyone's life is getting better and better, who would want to let their children wear old clothes that no one else wears? Besides, my family is in the clothing business, so what else do we need clothes for our children?"

Su Meijuan thought so too. Life at home is getting better day by day.

When Ningning has a child in the future, she won't be willing to let her grandson wear these.

When the time comes, she will definitely dress her grandson or granddaughter up like a baby in a New Year picture.

"Okay, then let's just not take any of these." Su Meijuan gritted her teeth and said, "We'll take all these clothes to the county town and donate them to the orphanage."

Hearing this, Tang Wanning suggested, "In that case, why not donate all the things we don't need at home? We probably won't be living here again anyway."

Even if I want to go home, this old house has been unoccupied for so long, so I need to clean it up. Instead of going through so much trouble, I might as well just live at Second Aunt’s house.”

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

As a result, not only Su Meijuan and Tang Dehou became extremely busy, but even Tang Wanning was busy as well.

An hour later, the three of them finally sorted out all the things that were easy to take away.

Part of it was tied to the bicycle, and the other part was taken back by Tang Dehou on the bus.

After such a busy time, Tang Wanning was so tired that he held his waist and gasped for breath.

"Mom, it's almost done. The remaining ones are not easy to carry, so let's leave them here."

However, Su Meijuan did not answer Tang Wanning's words, but looked around the courtyard with complicated eyes.

After all, she and Old Tang have lived here for more than 20 years, and if they leave today, they don’t know when they will come back, so it is normal to feel a little reluctant.

After a long while, Su Meijuan reluctantly said, "Let's go."

After returning to the courtyard in the county town, Su Meijuan and Tang Dehou transported those things to the orphanage, while Tang Wanning was busy preparing dinner at home.

"Ningning, your father and I are back, and we've bought the tickets to the provincial capital for tomorrow."

"Okay, go and rest for a while, dinner will be served soon."

Soon, Zhong Jiying and her daughter, Tang Zaozao and Tang Huaixu also returned one after another.

When Tang Huaixu learned that his parents and sister were going to the provincial capital together the next day, he felt like the sky was falling.

Looking at that expression, it's like he was dumped by a scumbag.

But soon, Tang Huaixu looked at Tang Wanning with hope.

"Sister, can't you take me and Zao Zao with you?"

"Xiao Xu, you will take the college entrance examination next year, and the high school entrance examination sooner or later. These are both crucial years, so it's best not to take leave if you can.

Besides, the main reason my parents and I are going to the provincial capital this time is to handle the transfer procedures for you and Zao Zao. Once the procedures are completed, I will ask Dad to come back and pick you up."

After hearing Tang Wanning's words, the disappointment in Tang Huaixu's eyes was quickly replaced by surprise.
