Chapter 120 Comfort
Su Wan was very depressed.
But these words were not said by Sister Wei after all, so Su Wan could only comfort her.
"Sister-in-law Wei, don't think too much. As long as you are willing to come, you can come anytime."
In the compound, Mrs. Wei is the only person who has shown a lot of kindness to Su Wan, and she also hopes that he can make money as soon as possible to pay back the debt.
"Xiao Su, I know my husband doesn't speak very nicely. If there is anything wrong, I apologize to you. Don't take it to heart. This matter is indeed not right by me. But I really have no other choice. I really can't watch my father die like this."
"Sister-in-law, I understand you. Don't feel any burden. As long as you are willing to come work here, the salary is what we agreed on."
"Xiao Su, sister-in-law really thanks you!"
Mrs. Wei spoke, her voice choked several times.
Su Wan patted the back of her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, don't think too much. Things will definitely get better and better."
"Then I won't bother you anymore. I'm going home first!"
Looking at Mrs. Wei's back, Su Wan sighed helplessly.
Fortunately, no one came to look for her afterwards. The next morning, she packed up all her things, put the gold ingots in her backpack, and prepared to return to the county.
Mrs. Wei had also packed up early in the morning. She was wearing the down jacket that Su Wan had given her, holding an umbrella in her hand, and smiling at Su Wan.
"Xiao Su, I've already talked to my family, we can go back now."
"Sister-in-law, let's go!"
The two of them went to the county in a military vehicle, but Su Wan didn't know the driver. After thanking him when they got off the vehicle, they went to the store together.
Looking at the clothing store, Sister Wei couldn't help but say, "Xiao Su, your store is so beautifully decorated!"
"This is to attract customers to the store, and if the decoration is beautiful, customers will feel more respected when buying things in the store."
She brought Sister Wei into the store. Qian Juan and Zhao Ni were already greeting the incoming customers. When they saw Su Wan, they greeted her.
"Qian Juan, Zhao Ni, this is Sister Wei. Our shop is too busy for two people during the day, so Sister Wei will help out in the shop from now on."
"Just call me Xiaofang." Mrs. Wei said hurriedly.
"Hello, Sister Fang, I'm Qian Juan."
"Hello, Sister Fang, I'm Zhao Ni."
The three of them quickly became familiar with each other, and they didn't think that the extra person coming in would steal their commission. After all, the store's business was good, and they were often too busy during the day. What's more, it was arranged by Su Wan, so they would not say anything.
Seeing that they were familiar with each other, Su Wan spoke to Sister Wei, "Sister-in-law, I won't be in the store often. My second brother is in charge of the store. If you have any urgent matters and my second brother is not here, just tell them."
Mrs. Wei nodded, "I will, thank you, Xiao Su."
Su Wan handed the person over to Qian Juan and Zhao Ni, and went to Grandma Zhao's house first.
Since Zhao Qingci came back from abroad, Grandma Zhao's house has had a lot more neighbors visiting, each of them wanting to see if they can get some benefits.
Zhao Qingci was not stingy. She withdrew some money from the bank and saw that the children all gave red envelopes with one dollar in each. This opened the eyes of those people. They all said that Zhao's daughter had made a fortune abroad. She gave one dollar to each child. There were at least a hundred children who came, which was more than a month's salary.
When Su Wan arrived at Grandma Zhao's house, she found that a long queue had formed at the door at some point, and there were many tables at the door, all of which were filled with candies and some food.
Many children were eating candies nearby, their eyes wide open staring at the food on top, as if they were about to grab it at any moment.
Seeing Su Wan coming back, Zhao Qingci waved to her, "Wanwan, come here."
"Aunt Zhao, what's wrong?"
Su Wan looked over at those people and looked at Zhao Qingci with a little worry.
"Do you have time these two days?" Zhao Qingci asked.
"It's not very busy. If Aunt Zhao has anything to do, I can help."
"The weather has been nice these past couple of days, so I'd like to treat everyone here to a meal. I'm not very familiar with the restaurants here, so do you know any good restaurants?"
Zhao Qingci asked, and Su Wan opened her mouth and said, "We usually entertain guests at home. It's definitely not possible to do it in a small restaurant. But if we entertain guests in a state-owned restaurant, the price is very high. It's better to find a professional chef to cook at home. We can borrow tables and chairs from neighbors. It won't be a hassle."
Su Wan also had experience in entertaining guests before, so she was so clear about it now.
Patting his head, Zhao Qingci smiled and said, "I forgot there was such a way. I'll go back and ask the old lady. She seems to be in a bad mood these past few days. Can you help me ask her what's wrong?"
Although they are mother and daughter, Zhao Qingci feels that she cannot guess what the old lady is thinking sometimes, so she can only ask Su Wan for help.
Su Wan agreed without thinking, "I'll go in and see what's wrong with Grandma Zhao."
After entering the yard, Su Wan came to the door of Grandma Zhao's room.
After knocking on the door, I heard Grandma Zhao's voice from inside.
"Who is it?"
"Grandma Zhao, it's me!"
"Wanwan, come in!"
Grandma Zhao's voice rang out, and Su Wan went in immediately.
Seeing Grandma Zhao sitting weakly on the bed, Su Wan asked worriedly, "Grandma Zhao, what's wrong with you?"
"Wanwan, do you think I'm too stingy?"
When asked this, Su Wan felt that something must be wrong and immediately held Grandma Zhao's hand. "Grandma Zhao, go ahead and talk. I'm listening!"
"It's not a big deal, but we two old people haven't received any help from our neighbors over the years, but Qingci is giving out red envelopes to all of them without even asking. Many of them were the ones who took advantage of our misfortunes when your Grandpa Zhao was still alive.
I originally wanted to tell her, but I was worried that she would be unhappy after knowing it.
But seeing her give that money to such heartless people, I felt very uncomfortable."
"Grandma Zhao, you're right. Aunt Zhao probably didn't think too much about it. After returning from abroad and seeing that you were doing well, she probably wanted to express her gratitude to those who helped you. Unfortunately, some people are shameless and came here on their own."
"But no matter what, she should have told me."
Grandma Zhao sounded a little aggrieved.
"You're right. Aunt Zhao should have told you, but there are so many people here. Even if there are those who took advantage of you before, Aunt Zhao doesn't know. Even if she knew, she wouldn't be able to chase them away. We're all from the same village. She probably doesn't want you to be talked about by outsiders."
Grandma Zhao was even more upset. "The little money I worked so hard to earn is just given away like this. It would be better to give it to those who are struggling!"
