As the weather gets colder, at 6:30 in the morning, Jiang Ning gets out of her warm bed, chooses a professional-looking trench coat to wear, and then puts on some light makeup before heading out.
The children got up, put on the clothes Lin Chen had picked out, and then went to wash up.
A new day has begun.
The Intermediate Court also made a move. Lin Qiao is also an office worker who needs to get to the publishing house before eight o'clock every day, and she is used to getting up before seven o'clock.
Luo Guangming is also used to getting up early, and he will exercise in the yard after getting up.
The front yard was even more lively, with Wang Xiufen already busy making breakfast in the kitchen.
To ensure that her entire family could have a hot meal, she would usually get up at six o'clock to cook porridge, steam buns, and make soft pancakes... She basically made a different breakfast every day.
Gao Baoliang also got up. He had recently received a lot of renovation orders, and he spent several hours every day just signing material lists for them.
Yang Lu is probably the only one who doesn't have to get up early. She sleeps a lot during her pregnancy, usually until eight or nine o'clock.
Of course, there was another carefree person, and that was Ji Min.
Jiang Ning was now hesitant about whether to continue giving her the spiritual spring water. In her current state, she was like an innocent and carefree girl surrounded by love. She was worried that if she regained consciousness, she might be in even more pain.
Regardless, Jiang Ning enjoys living with everyone and having a busy and fulfilling life every day.
They usually work hard for their own careers, and occasionally get together to enjoy leisure time.
She can live this kind of simple life until she's old.
After having breakfast and dropping her two children off at school, she went to the company to begin her workday.
Xu Yan brought her a report to sign, and she received several clothing orders, so she contacted several clothing factories to follow up.
"Are your staff able to handle the workload? Do you need to hire more people?" Jiang Ning asked with concern.
Xu Yan shook her head: "No need, we can still manage. But at this rate of growth, we'll probably need to hire new people next year."
Jiang Ning smiled and nodded, handing her the signed report.
The phone rang suddenly, and Xu Yan walked out of her office to answer it.
Rose's happy voice rang out:
"Jiang Ning, the first batch of goods has arrived at the port in Country M and will soon be available in the market. Get ready to receive payment. By the way, how's the second batch coming along?"
He had just flown in from another country and was checking with her about the porcelain exports.
"Mr. Ross, you haven't adjusted to the time difference yet, have you? You're really dedicated. Don't worry, the second batch of goods is ready. We can ship it as soon as the other party gives us instructions."
Customers also need to place orders based on sales performance; otherwise, if the goods don't sell, they'll be stuck with the bad stock.
However, based on Ross's current understanding, the pursuit of exquisite porcelain by the people of Country M has become a widespread demand.
Those porcelain pieces with similar gilded lines to those used in the imperial court were no longer luxury items exclusively for the upper class, but became mass-market consumer goods.
A plate that costs a dozen dollars isn't cheap, but their average wage is already $1,500 per person, and other expenses are very low, so buying a nice plate occasionally is really nothing to them.
After discussing work matters, Ross spoke sincerely:
"You've all worked hard these past few days, so let me treat you to some Western food."
Jiang Ning readily agreed, "Okay, see you tonight."
As for the "everyone" he mentioned, that means Jiang Ning can greet whoever he wants.
At noon, Jiang Ning invited Wang Meizhu and Xu Yan to have coffee and told them that Ross was going to treat them.
Xu Yan smiled and said:
"Then I'll eat less at noon and save some room. It's rare for Ross to treat me to a meal."
Wang Meizhu didn't care about anything else. She had a big appetite and couldn't work at all if she wasn't full. She bought two pieces of bread and barely filled her stomach.
A few people sat by the window, chatting and enjoying the afternoon sun.
Not long after, they heard a commotion coming from the dance hall across the street.
Jiang Ning looked over curiously and saw that Wen's mother was being blocked by a group of people, who wouldn't let her get close to Jiang Rou.
"Jiang Rou, you have such a vicious heart. You made my daughter follow someone, and now look what's happened! We can't find her anywhere. She's pregnant, and it rained all night last night. Where could she have gone?"
Wen's mother went from cursing and swearing at the beginning to sobbing uncontrollably at the end.
It was almost dawn when Jiang Rou told her about her daughter's misfortune. After she arrived at the ceramics factory, she asked around but couldn't find Wen Manman.
The last person to see her said she went west, but west was just farmland, and there was no sign of her.
She had no choice but to return, hoping to trouble Jiang Rou to mobilize the staff of the drum hall to help her search.
Jiang Rou coldly refused her.
“My people have to work at night, how can they go out with you to look for people? If you have so much free time to throw a tantrum here, you might as well go to the police station, they are much more professional at finding people than we are.”
As he spoke, he ordered the staff inside to kick her out.
Wen's mother didn't expect her to be so heartless, so she started scolding her. After scolding for a while, she realized she was being rude and slunk away.
Jiang Ning guessed that she had gone to the police station.
Wang Meizhu sneered when she saw her distraught appearance:
"So Wen Manman knew about us all along. If she had known, she would have tried to persuade her. Now that something has happened, she must regret it."
After watching the excitement, the group decided it was time to go back to work.
The company's business volume has increased dramatically, and their workload is also exceptionally heavy.
Jiang Ning isn't the kind of boss who encourages overtime; during regular working hours, everyone is very efficient.
After a busy afternoon, Jiang Ning finished her work and called Lin Chen to tell him that she was going out for a social event that evening and asked him to pick up the child.
"Okay, where are you eating? Do you need me to pick you up?" Lin Chen asked hurriedly.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and then refused, "Forget it, it's not far, just a few blocks away, I can walk back myself."
He still has to watch over the two children while they do their homework and supervise them while they take a bath, so he shouldn't worry about her.
The three sisters walked hand in hand to the Western restaurant. When they passed the police station, they saw a familiar yet unfamiliar person.
Good heavens, if it weren't for Wen's mother being there, they wouldn't have recognized her.
Could that disheveled person, with a dirty face and tattered clothes patched in several places, be Wen Manman?
People would believe she was a beggar who had been begging outside for a year.
With them was a group of people; judging from their clothes, they were probably from the village.
The police are mediating between them.
It turns out that when it was raining heavily yesterday, Wen Manman was still wandering the streets looking for a place to eat.
Unfortunately, she walked to the end of the street and couldn't find a single shop with its lights on.
She was sheltering from the rain under the eaves, shivering from the cold, when an old man finally saw her.
"Honey, why are you still out so late? Come on, let's go home and I'll make you something to eat."
Seeing the old woman's kind and gentle demeanor, Wen Manman followed her as if possessed.
