When Jiang Ning arrived in the county town, he inevitably had to have a meal with Song Jia.
Watching them busy, Song Jia felt a little embarrassed and repeatedly said that she really couldn't take the money for nothing and didn't want to be a first-level agent anymore.
Jiang Ning laughed at her: "This is the good fortune you deserve. You almost lost your life to earn it, so how can you say you didn't do anything to deserve it!"
"It would be really unfair of us to bypass you; we wouldn't feel at ease spending the money we've earned."
The original agreement was to give the books to Song Jia at a 60% discount, with Song Jia making a profit on every sale. Now that the books are being given to the science and technology bookstore at a 70% discount, the 10% difference should be given to her.
At 25 cents a book, the profit from 10,000 books would be 2,500 yuan.
According to Lin Chen, the sales volume this time is expected to exceed 100,000 copies, which would amount to 25,000 yuan.
She never dreamed she could earn so much money.
"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Lin Chen will give you the remittance slip when it comes time. Tell me which universities you applied to this time?" Jiang Ning asked.
Song Jia smiled shyly: "I applied to a school in this city. That way I can go home every month, and He Xiao can come to see me at school."
"That's great. Are you still planning to go back to the textile factory?" Jiang Ning then asked.
As far as she knew, a new factory manager would take over the textile factory in a few years.
The new bank president's reckless reforms have ruined a perfectly good factory.
Song Jia said uncertainly, "We'll see when the time comes. I applied for a design major, but I don't know if I'll be able to use my skills at the factory. If I can't apply what I've learned, I'd rather not work at all."
Moreover, with so much savings now and more money coming in soon, she suddenly felt more confident about her future plans.
After finishing their meal, the two went to the hospital again.
The doctor recommended prenatal checkups every two months, but while other pregnant women avoided them if possible, she insisted on coming.
Under her careful care, the two babies are growing up very healthy.
Unexpectedly, they ran into Gao Xiaolan when they left the hospital.
She was wearing a mask and covering her face with her hands, but a long scar could still be vaguely seen on her face.
According to Song Jia's later inquiries, Gao Xiaolan had tried to seduce the workshop director to get him to give her a high score on her internship. However, when the director's wife found out, she went to the factory and beat Gao Xiaolan up.
The scar on my face was from someone scratching me with their fingernails.
Jiang Ning laughed and cursed, "You brought this on yourself," before going home.
Little did they know, Gao Xiaolan also saw them, and nearly ground her teeth to powder.
Why do they get to wear pretty dresses and have money to spend all day without doing anything?
I work so hard every day, yet I'm still labeled as unqualified.
If she can't stay at the textile factory, then she won't have anywhere to cover her living expenses at university.
Are we relying on our families?
Her parents both favored sons over daughters, and she didn't want to rely on them anymore. She wanted to rely on herself and make a name for herself.
When it was time for lunch, she touched her pocket, which was even cleaner than her face, and walked over to Xue Mei.
"Sister Mei, I've thought it through and I'm ready to take action against the printing factory."
"Xiao Lan, what are you saying? I really don't understand." Xue Mei pretended to look at her blankly, secretly cursing this idiot for trying to drag her into this mess.
Gao Xiaolan quickly waved her hand: "Sister Mei, I just want to borrow some money from you. I really don't have any money to spend."
Xue Mei didn't say anything, but as she left, she deliberately dropped twenty yuan from her pocket.
With the money, she first bought a meal and ate her fill before heading out of the factory.
......
Jiang Ning rode his bicycle home, and when he reached the village entrance, Liu Fang greeted him.
"Are you here to pick me up?" she asked, puzzled.
It's really not that bad. She only rides her bike for a short distance. When no one is around, she goes into her spatial dimension and drives her car.
Liu Fang quickly took the cart and pushed it away.
"Aunt Wang asked me to pick you up because she was worried that Lin Tao would cause you trouble."
"Lin Tao is back?"
"That's right, his injuries have healed, but he's a bit listless, as if he was bullied and traumatized while he was inside."
"His condition is even more dangerous," Liu Fang said worriedly.
Jiang Ning frowned:
"He's the kind of person who's hard to change, so you should be careful."
At this point, anger flashed in Liu Fang's eyes.
“When he came back, I happened to run into him at Aunt Luo’s house when I went to get something. He tried to touch me inappropriately, but Luo Tiegang yelled at him to stop.”
When the conversation turned to the Luo family, Liu Fang couldn't help but think that Yu Meili hadn't been home for a long time, and said sullenly:
"Yu Meili, how did she end up hanging out with Yu Xiaofeng?"
When I was at my parents' home, I advised her not to go back to her parents' home so often, and to maintain a good relationship with her husband's family...
After listening to her, Jiang Ning suddenly remembered the time she suspected Xiong Ge of having an affair, and asked:
"So, how are things between you and Xiong Ge?"
Liu Fang's face flushed: "I must be overthinking it. Ever since I went home to rest for a few days last time, he hasn't stayed out all night again. He even bought me a gift. Look, this hair clip is what he bought for me."
Liu Fang turned her head to let Jiang Ning see.
Seeing the happy look on her face, Jiang Ning didn't say much, only saying:
"It's good that you're alright. If Xiong-ge dares to wrong you, I'll definitely stand up for you!"
The two chatted as they walked and soon arrived home.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard Zhao Ergou and Lin Tao arguing.
Yu Xiaofeng has been raising a few chickens these past few days, but she doesn't feed them. Every day at dawn, she herds the chickens towards the Lin family's house so they can forage for food on their own.
Zhao Ergou was raising wood ear mushrooms in his mud-brick house. He would occasionally see chicken droppings on the ground and get so angry that he would jump up and down.
He herded the chickens toward Lin Tao's house, and Lin Tao fought back in the yard. For a while, the yard was a chaotic mess of chickens and dogs.
