Aunt Li leaves around 7 a.m. every day and comes back early the next day to make breakfast.
Apart from Tao Qiuyan and her daughter Ye Xiaoxin, who were quite busy, everyone else was living a normal life.
Only... Su Qingwen seemed to have retreated into a den of women, always too shy to join the conversation, and could only read newspapers or books when he had nothing to do.
Most of the time, he would just ask Su Xinyi a couple of questions.
Ye Beiping felt particularly uncomfortable living in his home in Hangzhou.
Before, Ye Beiping was there, and Hou Baolin and Jiang Hai, who came to the house, were also men. Now that Ye Beiping is gone, the house is full of women, except for him.
"Yes." Tao Qiuyan stroked Su Xinyi's hand and sighed.
As someone who's been through it, I know how tough pregnancy is.
So even though she was helping Ye Xiaoxin with the restaurant business, she would still show more concern for Su Xinyi.
Seeing that Ye Xiaoxin looked exhausted, Su Xinyi asked, "Sister Xiaoxin, the opening is tomorrow, are you all ready?"
"Almost done." Ye Xiaoxin was energized by the news about the restaurant; her earlier dejection vanished, and she began excitedly talking about the preparations for tomorrow.
"Sister Zhou and the others will be coming to help tomorrow. All the paperwork is done, and we've found all the staff. The training these past two days has gone quite well. We plan to set off firecrackers at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to open the business. However, we don't know many people in Hangzhou, so the opening ceremony probably won't be very lively."
Towards the end, she seemed a little downcast.
More than anything, there was concern. Ye Beiping had spent so much money; if the older sister couldn't earn it back, it would really look bad.
It would be better to go home and grow sweet potatoes.
Everyone could see Ye Xiaoxin's worry.
Su Xinyi smiled and took Ye Xiaoxin's hand to comfort her, "Beiping said that you can definitely do it, Xiaoxin. Besides, I've already told my classmates that everyone will come to support me tomorrow."
"Really?" Ye Xiaoxin was surprised to hear that someone had come to support her.
I originally thought that only the few people Ye Beiping knew would come.
The main reason is that the Joyful Hotel is quite large, and not many people come. If it is not full on the first day of opening, the scene will probably be very quiet.
At this moment, Su Qingwen also lowered his eyes and interjected with a smile: "Xiaoxin, don't worry, your aunt and I have also informed our colleagues, and we'll all go over for a get-together after get off work."
"Mmm." Min Yuehua nodded repeatedly.
Given how much Ye Beiping cares about them—not only by installing air conditioning and helping Su Ze, but also by not forgetting them during the Chinese New Year—he is a son-in-law worth helping.
So it was Min Yuehua who brought up the idea of inviting colleagues, hoping that Ye Beiping's business would be successful and that her daughter could stay in Hangzhou and no longer need to return to the poor Pingba Village.
"Thank you, thank you, uncle and aunt."
Ye Xiaoxin immediately stood up to bow and thank the two of them.
Su Xinyi stopped him.
"Sister Xiaoxin, you're too kind."
This made Ye Xiaoxin a little embarrassed, so she could only laugh it off.
Finally, Min Yuehua spoke up, saying, "Everyone should get some rest. We'll be busy tomorrow. It's already past eleven."
"Yes, yes, it's already eleven o'clock, let's not disturb Xinyi's rest." Tao Qiuyan echoed.
Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua went to sleep in Tao Qiuyan's previous room.
The couple was initially a little awkward when Tao Qiuyan returned, but she took the initiative to defuse the situation by saying that she was not home and needed their care, which put them at ease.
Tao Qiuyan shared a room with Ye Xiaoxin. It was common for the mother and daughter to share a room in Pingba Village, so it was nothing new.
The only difference is that Su Xinwan, who used to sleep with Ye Xiaoxin, is going to sleep with Su Xinyi.
For several nights, because Su Xinyi was pregnant, she would turn over a lot, which made Su Xinwan very careful. She dared not sleep soundly for fear that she might kick her sister because of her bad sleeping posture.
