Because Yang Gangyong was the only driver and there was no one to share the driving, he rested for more than three hours at the service area in the middle of the night to avoid driving while fatigued and causing an accident.
At this time, there are still few cars, so even during the Spring Festival travel rush, there is no traffic jam and the road is unobstructed.
At noon the next day, they successfully returned to their hometown, Tangkou County.
He Wenlin knocked on the front of the car. Yang Gangyong heard the noise, pulled over, rolled down the window, and turned to ask, "Ms. He, what's wrong?"
"Our house is deserted, so we'll have lunch in the county town before heading back. Just keep driving straight for about six minutes, and there'll be a three-way intersection ahead. We'll park there and find a place to eat."
"OK."
The car continued driving for about five or six minutes until it reached the three-way intersection that He Wenlin had mentioned.
The car was parked on the side of the road.
He Wenlin was the first to jump off the train. She took out a comb from her backpack and combed her hair. She had been lying in the train car for more than ten hours, and her whole body ached. Her hair was also a mess, like a bird's nest.
"Finally back." The second brother jumped out of the car and stretched. "Linlin, when do we start selling?"
He Shan was also full of energy: "There are so many people on the streets now."
"Don't rush, let's go get something to eat first."
He Wenlin led everyone into the restaurant next door.
"Linlin, is it very expensive inside?" Grandma He asked somewhat guiltily.
Grandma He had never been to a restaurant in her life, not even a small shop on the street. In her mind, such places must be very expensive.
"Grandma, it's not expensive. You're the boss's grandma now, so don't worry. Your granddaughter has money. It's just a roadside shop now, but I'll take you to a fancy hotel for a big meal later."
"Haha, okay, then Grandma will wait. Sigh, Grandma's life hasn't been in vain. I'm enjoying the blessings of my granddaughter so early."
The old lady was used to being frugal, and eating out was a luxury in her eyes. However, she also knew that eating out was an essential part of being a businessman.
The portions at home are very generous, so He Wenlin only ordered six dishes.
Considering that Yang Gangyong was not used to local food, He Wenlin ordered him a dish of boiled shrimp, which was light and refreshing.
While the kitchen was still cooking, He Wenlin quickly made a phone call to her cousin, Luo Yumei…
"Is that you, Sister Ya Tou?"
Luo Yumei is the daughter of He Wenlin's aunt. Her nickname is Yatou, and He Wenlin has always called her Sister Yatou.
Upon hearing He Wenlin's voice on the other end of the phone, Luo Yumei became extremely excited: "Linlin, is that Linlin?"
"It's me. I've arrived at the crossroads and am eating here. Have you finished what I asked you to do?"
"It's all set up. The frame, the long bench, and the planks are all ready. Are you coming to pull them?"
"Okay, we're coming over now. You can move the stuff to the side of the road."
"no problem."
After hanging up the phone, He Wenlin called Yang Gangyong to go pick up the people and move the things.
"Let's eat first, then we'll go," said Grandma He. "There's no rush in doing business."
"The food hasn't been served yet, but don't worry, you can eat first. We can get it done in ten minutes."
Luo Yumei was staying at her relative's house in the county government compound. It only took seven or eight minutes to drive there and back from the restaurant.
He Wenlin and Yang Gangyong got into the car, and after waiting at traffic lights, they arrived at the county committee in about four minutes.
"Sister, Brother Dong." As soon as He Wenlin arrived, Luo Yumei and Luo Guodong, the siblings, also carried their things to the roadside.
Dong Ge, whose real name is Luo Guodong, is Luo Yumei's younger brother. He is a high school sophomore this year and a top student.
Luo Guodong laughed and said, "Linlin, you're really something now."
Luo Yumei asked slyly, "Linlin, you rich little sister, tell me, how many tens of thousands have you earned now?"
The news that He Wenlin had opened three shops and a factory in Shaocheng, and had bought a car and a house had long been known in the village and among her relatives.
"I've made hundreds of thousands in debt, and I'm just a paper tiger on the surface. I'm not actually as rich as everyone imagines," He Wenlin said. "Let's load the stuff onto the truck, go eat, and then set up our stall!"
In no time, the items were loaded onto the truck, and Luo Yumei and Luo Guodong also climbed onto the truck bed.
Yang Gangyong stepped on the gas and drove to the small restaurant again.
"Grandma!" Luo Yumei and Luo Guodong quickly called out.
"Brother Dong, Sister Yatou." The second brother greeted them while moving chairs for them.
Grandma He: You've come back just in time. These two dishes have just been served. Hurry up and sit down to eat.
He Wenlin waved to the waiter: "We're adding two dishes to our table, sis, bro, is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"I want tofu cooked in a clay pot," Luo Guodong said.
Luo Yumei didn't stand on ceremony and said directly, "I want to eat egg dumplings stewed with sweet potato noodles."
"Okay, let's add these two."
The dishes we ordered were served one after another.
Everyone was starving, so they picked up their chopsticks and started eating heartily.
After they had eaten enough, He Wenlin said, "We'll go set up our stall in a bit. After we unload the goods, Uncle Yang, you can take my grandma back to the countryside, and then you can rest well at home. Tomorrow, we'll drive back to Shaoxing and come back to work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."
Yang Gangyong nodded: "Okay."
"Linlin, did you buy this car?" Luo Yumei asked.
“I bought it, but I took out a loan. I have to pay several thousand yuan to the bank every month,” He Wenlin said. “It’s almost time, I’m leaving.”
He Wenlin paid the bill, and then everyone got into the car. The car couldn't move any further when it got to the department store because there were too many pedestrians.
