"Mom, this isn't a good idea!" Jiang Yong'an said, looking troubled. "Ranran is pregnant!"
"Then let Qin Haiyang come!" Peng Cuiying said sharply, "Huo Beixiao is a working man, and he can serve that rural woman Lin Xiaohui. Qin Haiyang is just a peasant, how can he serve me?"
Jiang Yong'an also hoped that Qin Haiyang would take care of his mother. "Okay, Mom, I'll go find them. You should rest first."

Not long after Jiang Qiaoqiao and Huo Beixiao arrived at Lin Xiaohui's newly arranged single room, Lin Xiaohui chased them and Yang Jianguo away.
Tell them to go back and prepare tomorrow's ducks and duck products, and to do their business properly.
Fortunately, Huo Beixiao had called Yangjia Village before he arrived. After the villagers notified Yang Minghui, Yang Minghui arrived and was able to take care of Lin Xiaohui at the hospital.
"Brother, how about we hire another person for our duck products shop?"
On the way back to the store, Jiang Qiaoqiao discussed it with Yang Minghui.
Yang Minghui had previously disagreed with hiring people because hiring people would incur labor costs, which would add to the overall cost.
But now that he understood Lin Xiaohui's physical condition, he nodded without hesitation, "Okay, let's hire someone!"
After returning to the store, Jiang Qiaoqiao wrote a job posting and put it up.
But after interviewing several people, none of them satisfied Jiang Qiaoqiao. They were either not quick enough, not very hygienic, or didn't speak fluently.
At that moment, a woman holding a child's hand and carrying a basket of cardboard on her back put the basket on the steps at the door and walked in.
"Qiaoqiao, you..." Zheng Yulan was stunned when she saw Jiang Qiaoqiao.
She looked at the storefront of the duck products shop again and suddenly realized, "Qiaoqiao, you own this duck products shop?"
Jiang Qiaoqiao was also surprised, "Sister Yulan, it's you! How come you..."
Zheng Yulan in front of me looks like a completely different person. She's darker, thinner, and dressed in more worn-out clothes than before, but there's a light in her face and eyes.
The little boy she was holding had a rounder, plumper face than before.
Upon seeing Jiang Qiaoqiao, Xiao Guoqing greeted her politely, "Hello, Aunt Qiaoqiao."
"Hello, Xiao Guoqing." After greeting the child, Jiang Qiaoqiao handed each of them a glass of water and invited them to sit down and talk.
Zheng Yulan also frankly stated her purpose: she had heard that a newly opened duck products store in the area was hiring, so she rushed over to try her luck and hoped to get the job.
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with a determined gaze and asked, "Qiaoqiao, can I give it a try?"
Jiang Qiaoqiao nodded, "Of course. Sister Yulan, but there are some things I need to make clear to you first. We have a half-hour trial period. If you don't pass, we will only give you a subsidy of 50 cents."
"Okay, okay!" Zheng Yulan nodded repeatedly. "I will definitely do my best!"
Jiang Qiaoqiao led Zheng Yulan into the kitchen, telling Zhou Yang and Zhou Ling'er to have fun with Xiao Guoqing.
Just like with everyone else, Jiang Qiaoqiao had Zheng Yulan clean the duck parts.
Zheng Yulan washed her hands first, and then asked Jiang Qiaoqiao for an apron before starting to work.
However, she worked very efficiently, and the duck products she washed were very clean.
While busy with his work, Yang Jianguo also observed the applicants.
When he saw Zheng Yulan working, he couldn't help but nod at Jiang Qiaoqiao, indicating that she was a good person.
Half an hour later, Jiang Qiaoqiao told Zheng Yulan that she had been hired. Her basic monthly salary was fifty yuan, and she would receive a 1% commission based on the store's turnover.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yulan's eyes were filled with joy and excitement.
Her gaze towards Jiang Qiaoqiao was filled with gratitude. "Qiaoqiao, thank you. Really! Thank you!"
She wiped away her tears, and for a moment she couldn't think of any other way to thank Jiang Qiaoqiao.
All I can say is that she should work hard in the future, try to bring more business to the store, and then slowly repay Jiang Qiaoqiao's money and kindness.
"Sister Yulan, where are you and Xiao Guoqing living now?" Jiang Qiaoqiao asked.
Zheng Yulan generously said, "I rented a house in the suburbs and am staying there temporarily."
“The things we sell in our shop need to be freshly braised every day. So even though we don’t open early, you’ll have to start work very early. Are you sure you’ll be okay coming all the way from the suburbs to the shop by yourself with Xiao Guoqing?” Jiang Qiaoqiao asked with some concern.
"No problem." Zheng Yulan said without the slightest hesitation, patting her chest. "Qiaoqiao, don't worry!"
Once it was confirmed that Zheng Yulan would be working at the store, Jiang Qiaoqiao was preparing to go back to her family home.
Zhou Yang, with a worried look on his face, stopped her. "Sister Qiaoqiao, we still have so many clothes we brought in! If we don't set up our stall soon, they won't sell when the weather gets cooler!"
Zhou Yang knew that the duck products shop was important, but their stall was just as important!
The lingering heat of late summer is almost over, and the weather is about to turn cooler.
Those clothes will be stuck with us if we don't sell them soon!
Jiang Qiaoqiao ruffled Zhou Yang's hair. "Let's set up our stall tomorrow!"
Zhou Yang immediately perked up, "Okay, I'll go back and organize the inventory right away."
Huo Beixiao has already brought over the tricycle she rode to the small appliance store yesterday.
The two of them rode their tricycle home to their family compound together as usual.
On the way, Huo Beixiao discussed with her, "Qiaoqiao, let's buy another big house and move out of the family compound."
He didn't care where he lived when he was single.
However, during the period after getting married, he felt that living in the staff housing was really inconvenient.
