Su Yan put down her things and chatted with Lu Yilan for a few words, then went to the back mountain to find her parents-in-law. She didn't expect that the two old people had never done heavy work when they were young, and now they could obviously lie down and enjoy their retirement, but they insisted on continuing to work for that unfilial descendant.
Su Yan also understood that her parents-in-law wanted to marry Lu Yilan off to her, but they also felt that they were still able to move on, so they took this opportunity to rent a hill to raise chickens and make some money so that they could do whatever they wanted in the future.
My parents-in-law have a lot of retirement pay, so why do they work so hard? Of course, it's because after seeing Su Yan making a lot of money from planting in the countryside, they also want to try breeding to see if they can make money.
When Hua Min saw Su Yan coming over, he quickly put down his work and walked over, "Yan Yan, you're back?"
"Well, I've been back for a while, and I came to see you today. Mom, the weather is so cold, it might snow during the New Year this year, why did you come to the mountains?"
"We've hired some woodcutters to build a few chicken coops up the mountain, and a cabin to store the food. Your dad and I are here to help and see how things are going."
"Mom, are you really planning to raise chickens? How many do you plan to raise?"
"In the spring, we'll start by raising 500 to see if they're easy to raise. If they are, we'll raise another 1,000 or 2,000 in the summer."
"Raising two thousand chickens requires a lot of food. Do you plan to buy food or..."
"Your father and I rented five acres of land. We planted three acres of crops, one acre of vegetables, and one acre of watermelon in the summer."
Even though there are only five acres of land, it would still be a lot of work if we don’t hire anyone. My parents-in-law probably have never done farm work before. Can they farm the land by renting so much land?
Lu Yilan is in a terrible situation now. Once she raises chickens, she will have endless work to do. She also has to farm during the busy farming season, otherwise what will the chickens eat?
"Mom, you are still doing farm work at your age. You should be enjoying your retirement at home."
"If you don't move when you're old, you'll get sick. Don't worry, Yanyan. If you can't do it, we'll pay someone to do it. We'll only rent these lands for three years."
Since my mother-in-law has said so, what else can she persuade? If they like to do it, let them do more.
"I heard that you and that kid from the Yan family went to Hong Kong to hold an orchid exhibition. Did you sell all the orchids you brought over?"
"They've all been sold. The Yan family is planning to wholesale some flowers from me and sell them in Haishi and Huacheng."
"Is that so, Yanyan? You are too busy, why don't I go and help you?"
She has hired so many people, and now they want to help her. What were they doing before? Forget it, they are old and there is no need to bother with them.
"No need, Mom. My uncle and his two sons are helping me, so I should be able to handle it. By the way, I bought some clothes and supplements for you and Dad when I went to Hong Kong this time."
"We all have clothes to wear, why did you spend that money? Come on, I said hello to you, let's go back and cook."
Su Yan originally didn't want to have dinner with her parents-in-law, but her mother-in-law kept pulling her hand, so she had no choice but to follow her to find her father-in-law, say a few words to him, and then go back to make lunch.
After lunch, Su Yan hurried to Lihua Village. When Lu Yilan saw her aunt had left, she cleared the dishes and said to Hua Min, "Grandma, have you noticed that her aunt is becoming more and more fashionable? Even when she's back in the countryside, she never forgets to put on makeup and dress up every day."
"Lanlan, your aunt is a businesswoman now, so she has to dress appropriately. If she wears something gray, her business partners will definitely look down on her."
"Grandma, my aunt is already pretty, and now she's so good at dressing up. Aren't you afraid that she'll mess around with those businessmen?"
"How can you talk nonsense, kid? If Yanyan can mess around and go to college, then so be it. She's so capable that she has the capital to mess around, but your aunt is not that kind of person."
Lu Yilan muttered softly, why isn’t her aunt that kind of person?
How come her mother is so thoughtful and has so many affairs with so many men, while her aunt is so pure and clean, walking through the greenery without getting a single leaf on her?
I don’t know if her aunt is a fool or her mother is a fool. If she looks like her aunt, she will definitely use her advantages to find a powerful, rich and handsome second-generation official.
"Grandma, my aunt bought you so many supplements. Did she make a lot of money this time in Hong Kong? I wish she could take me to Hong Kong to pan for gold."
Lu Fengnian was a little annoyed. "Lu Yilan, are you sick again? No matter how much money your aunt makes, it's her own ability. Don't even think about going to Gangcheng. Have you forgotten your last trip to Huacheng?"
"Harbor City is more prosperous than Flower City, and naturally more chaotic than Flower City. You are a little girl who can't do anything. What are you going to do in Harbor City? Wait for people to wash dishes or learn bad habits like your mother."
Lu Fengnian's words were very harsh. No matter how thick-skinned Lu Yilan was, she was finally moved to tears. She was just a bad mouth now, and she had nothing better to do than to talk about her aunt.
My great aunt is a different person in the eyes of my grandparents. They think that my great aunt is very powerful and capable, and is a perfect match for my great uncle.
Hua Min saw her eldest granddaughter crying, but did not try to comfort her. This child still refused to give up and wanted to take shortcuts. If she continued like this, she would suffer a great loss sooner or later.
There was no other way. They owed their son Lu Jin twenty years, and now it was all owed to his daughter. There was no other way but to keep her by his side and watch over her until she slowly changed.
When she gets married at the age of 20, they can let go and enjoy their retirement in the countryside. By then, Yiming should have returned to China, and he should have taken back the house and married a wife.
Su Yan didn't know what her parents-in-law and Lu Yilan thought, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care. She didn't have any ideas at the moment. She just wanted to work hard to make money and try to work for another ten years or so, so that she could lay down her life before she turned fifty.
When Hua Zhang saw Su Yan coming over, he was extremely happy, "My nephew's wife, you are finally here."
"Uncle, how are the orchids in our greenhouse growing?"
"It's all fine, except that it's cold and some flowers aren't blooming."
"Uncle, the temperature is very low and many orchids won't bloom, except for the four-season orchids and winter orchids."
"My nephew's wife, the Clivias in the charcoal-burning area of the greenhouse have all grown buds. They should bloom during the Chinese New Year, but the ones near the door haven't developed buds yet."
"Freeze it in the winter, and those orchids that don't bloom will bloom in the spring. If you take good care of them, they will bloom all year round. Have all the Phalaenopsis orchids in the greenhouse formed flower buds?"
"Well, I guess those Phalaenopsis orchids will bloom during the Chinese New Year."
"That's good. You can ask someone to clean the flower pots in the warehouse later. Tomorrow we will start picking some flowers that are ready to bloom and plant them in the pots."
"Xiao Su, are you going to sell flowers for the New Year?"
"Well, someone will come to pick it up in a couple of days, so we'll stock up on some more goods."
