Chapter 210 A passerby in a 1990s housewife's rebirth story 19
There were quite a few people, and Jiang Yue's house didn't have enough tables, chairs, and dishes. Fortunately, most of the people lived nearby and brought their own tables, chairs, and dishes. Even after that, there weren't enough people to help. Everyone wanted to eat Jiang Yue's cooking, but she couldn't cook it all herself, so she had to bring some people from the restaurant.
The house was set up and the people who went grocery shopping returned. With many people working together, the dishes were cooked in no time, and each family brought their own drinks.
It wasn't a formal occasion, so the drinks didn't need to be fancy, just something palatable. Jiang Yue led the team in cooking, while her colleagues washed and chopped the vegetables. Before long, a feast was ready.
As soon as the aroma of the food wafted out, the children who had been running around came running back and sat down in rows on the chairs to wait for the food to be served. Some of the people serving the food first served the younger children so they could eat first. The older children were more sensible and knew that their parents couldn't take care of them and that they had to take care of themselves and also look after the younger children.
There's strength in numbers, but the speed was limited by the fact that Jiang Yue's family didn't have enough stoves, even with two extra stoves added. After the dishes were cooked, the restaurant staff left, and Jiang Yue gave them bonuses, including the puppet. After Jiang Yue sat down, everyone toasted her and started eating.
It had been a while since we'd all gotten together, so everyone was quite talkative. The men talked about work, and the women talked about gossip and their kids. We even went out to buy beer twice during the meal. Those who weren't drunk afterward started helping with the cleaning, while the drunk ones were sent home. The kids even helped take out the trash a few times.
After dinner, there was a tea party where people drank tea, listened to music, and someone suggested going to a sauna. They formed small groups of two or three and then dispersed. Some went to take a bath, some went to sing karaoke, and Jiang Yue also went for a massage. You know what? It was so refreshing! I was feeling so tired from all the work, and the massage made me feel much better.
After the happy time passed, everyone went back to work or school, and Jiang Yue also had some free time, so she drove out for a drive. During this period, she started a breeding farm in the suburbs, and she planned to go and take a look at it today, because it is becoming increasingly difficult to buy black pork and free-range chickens. Jiang Yue plans to raise some herself to be self-sufficient.
The road to the farm was somewhat remote and difficult to travel, consisting of only a dirt road. Upon arrival, a puppet greeted her and led her around. There was a mountain with a fruit tree on it, and a pigsty built on the mountainside. Chickens, ducks, and geese were free-range, and some cattle and sheep were also raised. Jiang Yue wasn't worried about not being able to finish the food, since she also had a restaurant, and any leftovers could be supplied to the other side.
After wandering around, Jiang Yue took some beef and a slaughtered chicken and went home. It started snowing on her way home, but luckily she was almost home when it started snowing. When she got home, it was getting late, so Jiang Yue put the beef in the refrigerator and then made a chicken soup. When it was almost done, Jiang Yue took some out and fed it to the cats and dogs, then added some salt and drank a bowl herself.
After finishing her meal, Jiang Yue went to her study, studied for a while, and wrote a piece of calligraphy. After finishing, Jiang Yue looked at it and decided not to destroy it. She was quite satisfied with the calligraphy she had written today and planned to have it framed and hung in her room another day.
After finishing, Jiang Yue took out her phone and browsed for a while. There were many videos buffering on it. While playing on her phone, she had a little tea brewing around the stove. She brewed some tea, added some longan, red dates, and goji berries, and enjoyed it very much.
Before she knew it, it was already 10 p.m. Jiang Yue came to her senses and realized it was already 10 p.m. She packed her things, turned off the lights, and went back to her room to sleep.
I didn't go for a run the next day; it was inconvenient since it had just snowed. I swept the snow in the yard and in front of the door early in the morning, then went to Zhao Ting's house to see the little girl. I admired the child's innocent smile, and it was so healing. When I got home, I couldn't resist Zhao Ting's coaxing and promised to make her breakfast. Sigh, I don't know how old she is and she still acts like a child.
I called her when I finished cooking, and she came running over to eat. After eating, I chatted with Jiang Yue for a while before leaving. It had just snowed yesterday, so I didn't want to go out today. I took advantage of the free time to finish the novel I submitted to the magazine, which they had been urging me to finish several times.
In recent years, Jiang Yue has written several novels, and many people have wanted to acquire the film and television adaptation rights. However, the prices offered were all too low, and Jiang Yue refused them all. Those prices were simply outrageous and meant to fool children. Jiang Yue doesn't lack that kind of money, nor does she care about fame.
You are like a fire, your blazing flames warmed me~
As Jiang Yue wrote, she hummed a song. Only after finishing did she realize that the song was a bit old for this era. Jiang Yue remembered that Fei Xiang sang "A Fire in Winter" on the Spring Festival Gala. That same year, the Greater Khingan Mountains burned for 28 days, affecting more than 50,000 people, resulting in 193 deaths, numerous injuries, and hundreds of millions of yuan in economic losses. This forest fire was terrifying. Everyone must remember not to light open fires in the forest, as it harms both yourself and others.
"Boredness breeds hesitation; achieving one's ideal is not easy."
As Jiang Yue wrote, she swayed her head back and forth. This song was quite passionate, and it made her write the novel much faster. After listening to a few songs, she wrote a bunch of typos and even copied down the lyrics. She then switched to a soothing song and quickly corrected the mistakes. After finishing, Jiang Yue checked what she had written that day again. Hmm, there were no problems. She would send it over tomorrow.
After putting away the manuscript, Jiang Yue stretched and moved her body. Then she checked the time and it was already noon. It was time to think about what to eat again. Jiang Yue thought about the beef she brought back yesterday and decided to make tomato beef brisket. Right, she forgot to share some beef with Zhao Ting and Zhou Zihan. Oh well, she'd better cook it and then deliver it to them. They probably would prefer this to raw meat.
After the beef stew was started, Jiang Yue went back to her study and logged into QQ to send a message to Zhou Zihan and Zhao Ting. Because of the snow yesterday, both of them were at home. When they received Jiang Yue's message, they both said OK and that they would come over to get some later, so they didn't need Jiang Yue to deliver it. Jiang Yue replied OK. Speaking of Tencent, neither Jiang Yue nor Zhou Zihan had invested in companies like Tencent or Alibaba.
On the one hand, you don't have the channels. Just look at the investors that Jack Ma and Pony Ma approached. Even though they all rejected you, if you went and asked for a small investment, others might not necessarily accept it. The success of Tencent and Alibaba is inseparable from their investors. If you squeeze one out, and the company encounters difficulties in the future, and the problems that the original investors need to solve can no longer be solved, a series of butterfly effects will occur, and Tencent and Alibaba might be ruined.
Since they know he'll be amazing in the future, they might as well just wait for the IPO and buy his stock. It's less work, less effort, and they can make money. That's what Zhou Zihan is doing now, and Jiang Yue plans to follow suit. After all, enough money is enough. Jiang Yue misses the days before she was bound to the system, when she earned 3,000 yuan a month. (Manual doge face)
