Chapter 446 Awkward Concern, Come and Help
"Go, go, what are you eating! Go to your cousin's room quickly. She hasn't come out since you came back in the afternoon. She must have fallen asleep. Hurry up and wake her up to eat." Zhang's mother urged.
Zhang Wanwan looked around. Qin Wenjun was a pregnant woman and could not be invited. Zhang Baiyan, a man, had to avoid danger. Zhang's father and mother had no intention of getting up. She had no choice but to resign herself to going over to call for help. She knocked on the door twice but no one answered. Zhang Wanwan pushed the door open suspiciously, turned on the light and saw Zhang Nini sleeping soundly on the bed.
She took a deep breath, walked straight to the bed, and pushed Zhang Nini twice before waking her up. "Wake up, it's dark, time for dinner."
Zhang Nini saw the person in front of her clearly, turned over and sat up, rubbed her eyes, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhang Wanwan didn't care and repeated what her mother meant.
Soon Zhang Nini washed up, changed her clothes and went out.
He greeted everyone politely before sitting at the table, and was confused for a moment when he saw Qin Wenjun.
Zhang's mother said directly: "This is Bai Yan's wife, she is your cousin."
"Hello, sister-in-law." Zhang Nini shouted.
Qin Wenjun smiled at her and asked her to sit down.
Qin Wenjun had never met Zhang Nini, but she felt that the woman in front of her had a very good temperament and was obviously someone who had seen the world. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhang Wanwan, but on the more gorgeous side. It had to be said that all the members of the Zhang family were good-looking. She touched her belly, thinking that if she gave birth to a daughter, she would not look too bad, and she became more and more expectant.
No one talked much during the meal. Seeing that Zhang Nini ate slowly and didn't pick up much food, Zhang's mother kept picking up food for her and said loudly, "Since you live here, you don't have to be polite to your aunt. The food in our house is not very good, but you won't starve. You look so thin, eat more! You don't have to be so formal in our house."
Zhang Nini has really lost a lot of weight. She was not fat when she was abroad, but she looked good. After coming back and being busy for so long, she has become thinner than a yellow flower and looks extremely haggard.
Father Zhang quickly agreed, "Your aunt is right. You don't have to feel restrained here. Tell your aunt or me what you want to eat. Although Qingpu is a county town, it has everything. We grow our own green agricultural products, which are definitely safer to eat than those bought outside."
"Yeah," Zhang Nini nodded obediently.
After being fed by Zhang's mother, he ate a whole bowl of rice and half a bowl of soup, and almost leaned against the wall.
Seeing that she really couldn't eat, Zhang's mother shook her head and didn't force her.
With the addition of Zhang Nini, everyone no longer gathered together to watch TV and eat fruit after dinner like before. As the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, Zhang Wanwan had to start working overtime recently. Qin Wenjun was a pregnant woman and it was not easy for her to work day and night, so she asked Zhang Nini, "I'm going to make some snacks. Do you want to come with me and help?"
Zhang Nini was stunned for a moment, then agreed without much thought.
When she reached the first floor and saw the bakery and the huge office space, she was stunned for a moment.
Zhang Wanwan explained to her, "I registered a company. That's the office space, but we haven't started hiring yet. This is my bakery. I sell high-end pastries, mooncakes, and other snacks. I also have my own brand. If you haven't figured out your future life plan, you can help me first. I'll pay you."
Zhang Nini lowered her eyes and whispered, "Thank you, but why are you helping me?"
Even her own mother could treat her like this. She really couldn't understand why Zhang Wanwan, who had always been bullied by her, would help her like this.
Zhang Wanwan turned around and asked doubtfully, "I'm not helping you. We're just getting what we need. Besides, I can't just look at the face of the monk, even if it's for the sake of our blood relationship, I can't just remain indifferent. And I'm really short of people here. My sister-in-law used to help me, but now she's pregnant and can't work. It's just right that you're here, not too early, not too late, just right."
Zhang Nini was stunned for a moment, then said calmly: "Okay, what do you want me to help you with?"
Zhang Wanwan led her to the area where Qin Wenjun was working and introduced: "The snacks here will be cooled over there after they come out of the oven. You just need to help me pack and seal the cooled snacks, and then pack and ship them according to the order. It's that simple."
Zhang Nini nodded, thinking it was not difficult. But after she was really busy for two days, she found that she had thought it was too simple. Although the work content was not difficult, it was really endless, and there seemed to be no end to the orders. She and Qin Wenjun could not finish it even if they worked all day, and she had to work overtime alone at night.
After a week, Zhang Nini couldn't help but ask Zhang Wanwan, "Why don't you hire some more people to help you? After all, this kind of thing is not difficult, and there is nothing to cover up. Why make everyone so tired?"
Zhang Wanwan looked at her amusedly and teased, "Is it not okay for me to save costs?"
Zhang Nini shook her head. "You're not economical! I asked my sister-in-law. You paid her a high salary before. If you hire someone outside to do this simple job, you only need to pay 3,500 yuan a month. This can greatly save costs."
Zhang Wanwan snapped her fingers and said with a smile, "You are right, but I am used to it now. The old house was simple before, and I didn't like to hire someone I didn't know the details of. Now I don't have to worry so much here. So, do me another favor."
"What?" Zhang Nini was too tired to think. Now she just packed her things with her eyes open or closed without having to think about it.
"Haven't you been abroad for a few years? Your English should be pretty good. I plan to ask my boyfriend to help me promote a product on Amazon. How about you help me connect with overseas customers? I can hire you with a high salary." Zhang Wanwan offered tempting conditions.
Zhang Nini was dumbfounded. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She swallowed hard and pointed at herself in shock. "Are you talking about me? You want me to help you connect with overseas clients?"
Zhang Wanwan nodded heavily and said seriously, "I previously opened a sand farm, which has started to make a profit. Soon the money I invested will flow back. The land has been purchased, and I am starting to build a factory. Once the factory is up and the equipment is in place, we will be able to produce products in large quantities soon. If such a large quantity is sold domestically, the market is too small, so I plan to do export trade."
After listening to Zhang Wanwan's plan, Zhang Nini was completely impressed by her. During this period, she almost knew the situation of Zhang Wanwan's family and knew that it was not easy for their family to get to this point. This gave her great courage and allowed her to cheer up again. She originally planned to go to Xia City to work hard after a while, but she didn't expect Zhang Wanwan to extend an olive branch to her in advance.
