The classroom is spacious, about 20 square meters, with two half-meter-wide windows on each side of the classroom, but only the window frames are left, no glass.

This also resulted in an extremely poor environment inside the classroom, with the floor and walls becoming black and moldy due to the rain water that drifted in.

Especially on the second floor, the roofs of several classrooms were badly damaged, the ground had been soaked by rain for a long time, and thick, black moss had grown on it, and even mushrooms had grown in some places, and the air was filled with an unpleasant stench of corruption.

Fortunately, the overall structure of the school is still intact. We just need to clear the weeds, repair the ground and roof, and install glass on the windows, and it can basically be used.

In the evening, Huang Zhiqiu called Yun Mo and told her in detail about the land he rented from the school and the situation within the school.

"Momo, the school has two floors, with a total of 12 rooms. Your uncle and I roughly estimated that the cost of repairs would be at least two thousand yuan."

"Mom, don't worry. I took the samples to talk to Mr. Xie today, and also asked him to advance 10,000 yuan for the goods, which is enough to cover the expenses of setting up the factory."

Hearing this, Huang Zhiqiu couldn't help but feel relieved, "Then are you satisfied with the sample, thank you?"

"Thank you, Boss, for your suggestions. I'll tell you and Grandpa in detail when I get back. Mom, keep the land lease contract."

"Well, don't worry, I carry it with me, so I won't lose it."

After finishing the call with Huang Zhiqiu, Yun Mo turned around and found Ling Chuan and talked about returning to Anshi.

Originally, the two had agreed to go back home for the winter break, but Yun Mo's senior year class still had to attend classes for another week after the exams before the winter break.

"The rice dumpling box doesn't meet Uncle Xie's requirements, and I'm also worried that Mom and Big Brother can't handle things at school, so I want to go back and take a look earlier."

After saying that, Yun Mo was worried that Ling Chuan hadn't arranged his business yet, so she said, "Why don't I go back first, and you can come over after everything is arranged."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was rejected by Lingchuan.

"No, wife, I'll go back with you. I'll buy the ticket tomorrow."

Seeing the man's firm attitude, Yun Mo didn't say anything more.

The journey from Jiang City to An City is long, and there are all kinds of people on the train. It is always better to have someone to accompany her than to be alone.

Thinking about it, Yun Mo reminded the man, "I think you'll be staying for a month this time. It's cold in the countryside at night, so you should bring two more thick clothes and buy a hard sleeper ticket."

The hard seat ticket back to Anshi is 65 yuan, the hard sleeper ticket is 128 yuan, and the soft sleeper ticket is 200 yuan.

In the past, Yun Mo would have chosen the most comfortable soft sleeper without hesitation.

But now, to run a bamboo weaving factory, money is required everywhere, so we should save as much as possible.

Early the next morning, Huang Zhiqiu and Huang Jianjun took Huang Qingning back to Lu'an Town by car.

After working away from home for half a year, Huang Qingning had a lot of luggage, including several woven bags of various sizes, which made him particularly conspicuous when he walked on the road.

When Huang Qingning met some familiar villagers on the way, they all joked that he was going home so early to celebrate the New Year.

Huang Zhiqiu did not explain much and responded on behalf of his niece with a smile.

As they got closer to Xiacun, Huang Qingning lost the excitement and excitement he had when he learned about his resignation, and became nervous and uneasy.

"If mom knew I quit and didn't get paid, would she be angry?"

Huang Zhiqiu smiled and comforted him, "Your mother is so happy that you can continue your studies."

Huang Qingning was still a little worried, "Aunt, if I get scolded, you have to protect me."

Huang Zhiqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay."

"You're back now, it's too late to scold you. Besides, what's the point of scolding you losing a piece of meat?" Huang Jianjun joked.

you do not say.

Thinking of this, Huang Qingning immediately felt relieved and his mood became cheerful again.

When they were almost at the entrance of the village, Huang Qingning suddenly pointed at a middle-aged woman who was bending over and pushing a cart not far ahead, "Look, isn't that mom and grandpa?"

Huang Zhiqiu and Huang Jianjun looked closely and found that they were not Huang Kailin and Liu Zhi!

Huang Qingning slung the woven bag in his hand over his shoulder and ran forward happily.

Liu Zhi thought he had heard it wrong, but when he turned around and recognized that it was really his daughter, his face was suddenly filled with surprise and joy.

"Dad, Zhiqiu and the others are back!"

Hearing his eldest daughter-in-law's words, Huang Kailin subconsciously looked back. When he saw his granddaughter, he quickly stopped pulling the cart.

"Qingning, why did you come back with me?" Liu Zhi couldn't stop smiling as he looked at his daughter who seemed to have grown a little taller.

Huang Zhiqiu and Huang Jianjun walked to the cart one after the other and asked, "Dad, where did you and sister-in-law get so many bricks?"

Huang Kailin wiped his face with a towel and said, "I bought it from the brick factory in front."

"Dad wanted to repair the front door of our house, so he asked me to go to the brick factory and order a thousand bricks. A truckload of bricks was delivered this morning. This is the second truckload, and there is still one truckload to go."

Hearing this, Huang Jianjun immediately handed the thing in his hand to his wife.

"Dad, I'll pull the cart and you push it from behind."

"OK."

Huang Zhiqiu, Liu Zhi and Huang Qingning followed the cart carrying things.

Looking at Huang Kailin's somewhat hunched back, Huang Zhiqiu couldn't help but step forward to lend a hand and push together.

Huang Zhiqiu couldn't help but said, "Dad, my eldest brother and I are not at home, why didn't you call my second brother and his wife to help?"

"Why didn't you shout? Your second brother said that he sprained his waist and can't do heavy work." Liu Zhi sneered.

After hearing this, Huang Zhiqiu said nothing more.

Yang Xinghua sat on a small bamboo chair at the door, making cloth shoes while guarding the bricks placed outside the door.

When she saw her daughter, son and granddaughter coming back together, she quickly put down the work in her hands, stood up with the help of her bamboo crutches and went to greet them.

"Qingning, you're back?"

"grandmother!"

Huang Qingning ran to Yang Xinghua happily and said, "Grandma, did you miss me?"

Yang Xinghua was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. "I want to, of course I want to."

As he spoke, he carefully looked at his granddaughter Huang Qingning, "Qingning, have you grown taller?"

Huang Qingning shook his head. "Maybe. Last year's pants were a bit short anyway."

Liu Zhi, who was standing behind him, took over the conversation and said, "Your cousin sent a lot of cloth some time ago. I made two new pairs of pants for you. Try them on to see if they fit you. If not, take them to the tailor shop for alterations."

When Huang Qingning heard that she had new pants to wear, she smiled so happily that her face turned into a flower.

After seeing her granddaughter, Yang Xinghua couldn't help but ask Huang Yu, "Why are you alone, Qingning? Your elder brother didn't come back?"

"Brother is still at work. He won't be back until the New Year."

"What about you? You're on holiday so early?"

Liu Zhi also looked at his daughter curiously.

Huang Qingning was wondering how to answer, but Huang Zhiqiu spoke up to help her out, "Mom, let's go in and talk. We've been walking for a long time and we're tired and thirsty. Let's cook some sweet wine soup for you to drink."

Yang Xinghua immediately took her granddaughter home and said, "Qingning, come on, I'll make you some sweet wine."

"OK."

Huang Zhiqiu and Liu Zhi carried Huang Qingning's luggage back to Huang Qingning's room.
