Zheng Xinyue didn't notice that Qin Aonan was in a bad mood, so she answered him.
"It's very good. Xiao Nian helped Nian Nian a lot."
Thinking about how Yu Sui also helped, he continued to praise, "Senior Yu is also very nice. Nian Nian and I have the best relationship with them in school. They are always willing to help us whenever we need help. Last time Nian Nian bought a big wardrobe, it was Xiao Nian who asked his roommates to help. Nian Nian and I each bought him a pair of canvas shoes, and he was very touched."
Qin Aonan saw that Zheng Xinyue seemed very happy when she talked about Xiao Nian. He thought that they met frequently, while he only saw her two or three times a year...
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so Qin Aonan quickly gathered his thoughts.
But I couldn't help but ask, "What do you think of him?"
Zheng Xinyue was confused, "Are you asking about Xiao Nian or Senior Yu?"
Without waiting for Qin Aonan to answer, he continued cheerfully, "They are both good people, and both are talented students from Beijing University. They will definitely have a bright future after graduation. Especially Senior Yu, he is handsome, has a good family background, and is from Beijing. I don't know how Senior Yu's parents raised him so well. When we have children in the future, we can raise them in the same way, and we won't have to worry about finding a wife."
Qin Aonan just thought that Xiao Nian was enough to make him upset, but he didn't expect that there would be another senior named Yu who was excellent in all aspects.
I felt mixed emotions. I never expected Zheng Xinyue to suddenly say the following words. I blushed from my face to my neck in embarrassment, and my mood improved in an instant.
…
Yang Niannian went back to the house, tied her hair up, and then called the factory.
Qu Xiangyou was not in the factory, and it was Miao Yu who answered the phone. Thinking it was inconvenient to make a phone call in the army, she explained the matter to Miao Yu.
"As for the factory's holiday, ask Director Qu to arrange it, and don't make it too late. I'm going to the army tomorrow, so I may not be able to answer the phone. Ask Director Qu to arrange New Year's goods for the employees, and give each person ten kilograms of pork! Let everyone have a prosperous New Year."
Miao Yu was a little surprised. This was too generous. Even state-owned enterprises were not so generous. She just made a joke.
"Boss, I estimate that in the early spring of next year, many people will come to the factory to apply for jobs."
High salary, good benefits, who wouldn’t like such a factory?
Yang Niannian laughed crisply, "The factory is run by the employees. It's the New Year, so we have to give everyone some benefits."
After chatting briefly for a few minutes, she hung up the phone, thought about it, and called Jiang Yang again.
It was Lu Ruoling who answered the phone. She smiled foolishly, "Second sister-in-law, I was just about to call you to tell you the good news."
Yang Niannian was stunned. "Good news? You are pregnant?"
Lu Ruoling smiled a little embarrassedly and said "hmm", shyly.
“Just discovered it.”
Yang Niannian's eyes sparkled, "That's great, I'm going to be an aunt."
She also reminded him, "You should pay more attention to your health during pregnancy. Buy whatever you want to eat. Don't think about saving money and be stingy with food and clothing. Go to the hospital for regular checkups."
Lu Ruoling touched her belly and kept Yang Niannian's words in mind, "Second sister-in-law, I haven't been home for a long time. I want to go back and see you."
Yang Niannian asked, "Does Feng Yi have time to accompany you? If he doesn't have time, call your brother to pick you up, or wait for Feng Yi to retire next year. But don't take the train back alone, it's not safe."
There are many human traffickers these days. My sister-in-law is too kind-hearted. If she encounters a human trafficker, she will easily be deceived.
Lu Ruoling replied.
"Feng Yi called my eldest brother, and he said he would come to pick me up in two days. Feng Yi also said that he couldn't let my eldest brother pay for the train ticket, and he would return the money to me when the time comes."
Yang Niannian knew that Li Fengyi was quite knowledgeable about the ways of the world, so she smiled and praised him, "Fengyi is right. My eldest brother doesn't have much income in the countryside, and he has a wife and children to support at home. He is under a lot of pressure, so we really can't let him go out."
After chatting about family matters for a while, she asked Lu Ruoling to convey Jiang Yang's arrangement of New Year's goods for employees, and then Lu Ruoling gave the phone to Jiang Yueyue.
"Sister, when can you come to see me? I miss you and Brother Lu so much."
Yang Niannian's heart almost melted when she listened to Jiang Yueyue's voice.
"I don't have time for now. You stay at home and listen to me. Next summer, let your brother take you to Beijing City to play. Okay? There are many places of interest here. I took some photos and will ask your brother Qin to take them back tomorrow."
When Jiang Yueyue heard that there were photos to see and she could go to Beijing again next year, she cheered happily.
"Yeah."
Jiang Yueyue continued to complain about Jiang Yang for a while before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
Yang Niannian dialed Du Weili's office number again, but before she could even get two rings, Du Weili's nonchalant voice came from the other end of the line.
"Hey! Haven't you gone to the troops to visit Captain Lu yet?"
Yang Niannian was too lazy to argue with him, "When will the factory be completed?"
Du Weili leaned back in his chair leisurely, "It will be almost done in the next two days. When will you come to inspect the house?"
Yang Niannian, "I don't have time for now, please contact Master Qu and Jiang Yang!"
"You are so careless. Aren't you afraid that I will cut corners and cheat you?" Du Weili said.
Yang Niannian didn't care, "If you dare to cheat even the wife of an officer, wouldn't you be even more ruthless?"
Du Weili choked. He realized that he was really no match for Yang Niannian in terms of talking skills.
So he got serious again, "I'm planning to go to Beijing in a few days, how about I bring Jiang Yang and his sister over to see you?"
Yang Niannian was very surprised, "It's almost the New Year, why are you coming to Beijing?"
Du Weili said half-truthfully.
"There is an investment project. I'll go take a look."
Yang Niannian warned, "Be careful not to be cheated again. If you are cheated again, I will buy out your entire scrap yard."
Du Weili's tone was full of disdain. "You're such a badass. I'm no longer the Du Weili I used to be. Okay, hang up if you have nothing else to say. I'll contact Jiang Yang and Master Qu."
Yang Niannian hung up the phone and looked at the time. It was almost time for dinner. No wonder her stomach was rumbling.
At this time, Zheng Xinyue's voice came from outside.
"Niannian, Brother Qin said he wants to treat us to a meal."
Yang Niannian opened the door and went out. "Okay, let's go shopping after dinner. I'll buy some things and you can help bring them back."
The three of them went to the noodle shop at the entrance of the alley, had some beef noodles, and then went to the pedestrian street to buy things.
Yang Niannian bought clothes and snacks for An An and Yue Yue, a woolen coat for Jiang Yang, and finally bought autumn clothes, sweaters and some food for Lu Shishen.
Zheng Xinyue felt a little sorry for Yang Niannian when she saw that all the things she bought were for others.
"Niannian, it's Chinese New Year, why don't you buy yourself some clothes? Are you reluctant to buy any? I'll give you a set, just pick whatever you like."
Yang Niannian waved her hands, "No, no, I'm just worried that if I dress too ostentatiously, people will gossip about me behind my back. Shi Shen was just transferred here not long ago, so it's better to keep a low profile."
After hearing what she said, Zheng Xinyue gave up the idea.
Qin Aonan agreed with Yang Niannian's point of view, but he didn't say anything. He just acted as a helper to carry things behind the two of them, and occasionally acted as Zheng Xinyue's wallet.
