Su Meijuan raised her eyes and looked at Tang Wanning, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes filled with worry.
"No, I'm worried that the villagers will gossip about you when you go back. You know, they never hold back when they speak."
Tang Wanning raised his eyebrows and smiled in comfort, "Mom, they wouldn't dare."
Seeing her daughter so confident, Su Meijuan's eyes were full of doubts, "Why are you so sure?"
“It’s illegal to slander soldiers and their wives. If they dare to speak, I’ll have Shen Ci report them to the police!”
Hearing Tang Wanning's words, Su Meijuan was so angry that she laughed. "I thought you had come up with some good idea, but this is it? I'm glad you came up with it."
Seeing his mother smile, Tang Wanning became serious.
In fact, she just said that to make Su Meijuan happy.
She didn't want her mother to be sad because of her.
"Actually, I have a better idea. Do you want to hear it?"
Seeing Tang Wanning's serious expression, Su Meijuan's attitude also became more serious. "You say."
"Mom, look at how successful Yueji's business is. Don't you want to open a branch?"
"I do have this idea. Jinling is so big and has such a large customer base. Let alone opening another one, we can open several more."
"If that's the case, why don't we open a garment factory and recruit the villagers to work for us?" Tang Wanning smiled. "As the saying goes, 'one should be grateful to the one who feeds them, and be soft-hearted to the one who takes them.'" By then, we'll be the clothing supplier for them. Will they still dare to criticize me? Or rather, will they still criticize me?"
"Yes, this is indeed a good idea. After all, it doesn't matter who you recruit. This way, you can not only take care of the villagers, but also solve the gossip in the village." Su Meijuan's eyes sparkled. "Ningning, you are really a genius."
Tang Wanning waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's okay."
Seeing her daughter's arrogant look, Su Meijuan rarely refuted and said with a smile: "In that case, let's pack up and go back to Taoyuan Village the day after tomorrow. Oh, and call your uncle and second aunt later and tell them that we are going back to celebrate the New Year today."
"Okay, I'll tell them when I get back."
After having a simple lunch with his parents, Tang Wanning stayed to help as he saw the store filled with people again.
It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that she took a bus back to the family compound.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Tang Wanning heard Shen Cinian's gentle voice, "Ningning, you're back?"
"Well, are you cooking? I can smell the delicious food."
"Yes, you can go wash your hands and then we can have dinner." Chen Qinian smiled dotingly, "What did my parents say?"
"My parents are going to leave the day after tomorrow to go back for the New Year."
"Okay, I'll ask for leave from my boss this afternoon and take you to buy some New Year gifts tomorrow."
"good."
-
The next day, Shen Cinian and Tang Wanning finished breakfast early and set off.
Because today the time is tight and the task is heavy.
Not only did they have to send holiday gifts to the Tang family, they also had to give gifts to some leaders and employees in the store.
Fortunately, I got up early enough and finally completed the gift-giving trip perfectly.
Tang Wanning slumped in the passenger seat, even speaking weakly, "Giving holiday gifts is so tiring."
Chen Ci Nian gently rubbed the top of Tang Wanning's head, his voice extremely gentle, "Ningning, you've worked hard. I'll give you a good massage tonight to relieve it."
Tang Wanning's back straightened instantly after hearing this. She chuckled, "Haha, I suddenly don't feel so tired anymore."
Seeing the little girl's reaction, Shen Cinian curled his lips and smiled.
When the two returned to the courtyard, it was already getting dark, but the Tang family still insisted on waiting for them to come before having dinner.
Su Meijuan heard the sound of the car engine and trotted out with a smile, "Ningning, Xiao Shen, you are here. Have you had dinner?"
Tang Wanning smiled and replied, "Not yet. I've been delivering holiday gifts with Chen Qinian all day. If he hadn't said he'd be coming over here tonight, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get away now."
"Then come in and eat. It's so windy and cold outside. Don't catch a cold."
"good."
After entering the house, Tang Zaozao and Tang Huaixu happily called out to the two of them, "Sister, brother-in-law."
Tang Wanning thought about how adults always like to ask about children's grades, so she rolled her eyes, looked at the two of them with a smile, and asked, "How did you do on the final exam?"
What Tang Wanning didn't expect was that the two men didn't change their expressions because of her question. Instead, they seemed eager to try.
The two looked at each other, and Tang Zaozao spoke first, "Sister, I ranked first in the class and fourth in the grade this semester. I'm confident that I'll be in the top three next semester!"
Seeing this, Tang Huaixu smiled and said, "Sister, I got first place in the grade."
Hearing his sister-in-law's answer, Tang Wanning smiled brightly.
However, she knew that the most important reason why her brother and sister-in-law had made such great progress was the spiritual spring water.
Because it not only strengthens the body, but also improves memory.
Of course, their own efforts are also indispensable.
Otherwise, no matter how good their memory is, what’s the point if they don’t even read the textbooks?
Thinking of this, Tang Wanning smiled and said, "Good job! I'll have Chen Qinian give you a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year."
Hearing Tang Wanning's words, Tang Zaozao and Tang Huaixu laughed so hard that their gums showed.
Because they knew that the amount of money given by the brother-in-law was not small, not to mention that the sister had spoken personally.
Seeing this, Su Meijuan shook her head helplessly, "Just spoil them."
Tang Wanning disagreed after hearing this, retorting, "Mom, studying isn't easy either. Zao Zao and Xiao Xu did so well on the test, proving they worked hard enough. Otherwise, how could they be so top-notch in the school?"
Su Meijuan thought so too. She came back from the store late every day, but the lights in the two children's rooms were turned off even later, which showed how serious they were about studying.
"You're right. Your father and I will give you a big red envelope for the New Year."
Tang Zaozao and Tang Huaixu didn't expect such a pleasant surprise, and they smiled so hard that their teeth were showing.
"Wow, mom and sister, I declare that you two are the best people in the world. In my heart, no one can compare to you!"
Hearing Tang Zaozao's playful words, Shen Cinian and Tang Dehou also laughed.
Although Tang Zao Zao did not praise them, praising their wives was a disguised way of praising them for their good vision, and they felt proud of it!
After the family had a lively dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, the family took a jeep back to Taoyuan Village.
As soon as she arrived at the village entrance, Su Meijuan saw Zhong Jiying and Qin Huiru sitting under a big tree in the crowd.
She hurriedly got out of the car and shouted at the two people: "Jiying, Huiru, why are you two here?"
Qin Huiru explained with a smile, "Ningning said you would be back today, so Qingfeng and I brought the children here. Since we had nothing to do, Jiying dragged me to the village entrance to wait for you."
