Jiang Xiaoli saw that his eyes seemed to be shining when he spoke, and she smiled gently, "Yes, I believe you."
The two looked at each other and saw trust in each other's eyes.
Li Guizhi's voice interrupted them, "Xiao Li, come in and serve the dishes!"
Zong Jia gave her a wink and then turned and went into the kitchen.
After the three of them finished their dinner in a pleasant atmosphere, Li Guizhi pulled Zong Jiayu aside and asked, "Xiao Zong, you've been learning to drive for a while now. Do you find it difficult?"
Zong Jia comforted her, "Godmother, learning to drive is a bit difficult, but as long as you follow the instructor's train of thought and practice more, I believe you will definitely be fine."
Li Guizhi nodded in agreement with his words and couldn't help but sigh, "Look at all these people, they don't even have a bicycle at home. I'm going to have to learn how to drive a car."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and put her arm around her mother's shoulder, "Of course, you're my mom, how could you be an ordinary person?"
Time flies, and the end of the month is here in the blink of an eye.
Yesterday, Jiang Xiaoli, Zong Jia, and Xiao Muyu spent a very festive Christmas together. Today, they are going to look at the land for the new factory area.
The county warmly welcomed them to invest and build a factory here. The leaders of the investment promotion office generously approved 75 mu of land for them at a price so low it was like picking up cabbage.
Upon arriving at their destination, Wei Dong waved his hand smugly, "Jincheng, look at this entire piece of land in front of us, it's all ours, what do you think? Not bad, right?"
Xiao Jincheng glanced at him and laughed, "Look how smug you are, isn't this all thanks to our Little Pear's abilities?"
Wei Dong wasn't angry at being rebuked; instead, he smiled and nodded, "What you said makes sense. Come and take a look at our plans!"
Xiao Jincheng gave his colleagues a wink, "Hurry up and follow us, let's hear what our major client's needs are?"
More than ten people arrived at once. The village chief rushed over excitedly upon hearing the news, and was very enthusiastic, inviting everyone to have lunch at his home.
Wei Dong had met the village chief a few times, and politely declined with a smile, "Village chief, our factory will be here from now on, and we'll have plenty of opportunities to eat together. Today we brought professional engineers to check out the site. The sooner we finalize the construction plan, the sooner the factory can start construction, don't you think?"
Upon hearing that they had come on official business, the village chief decided not to disturb them any further and told them to contact him anytime if they needed anything before leaving.
Xiao Jincheng's company had undertaken various factory construction projects. As Wei Dong and others explained the factory's plan to them, the accompanying engineer understood and said that he could draw up the blueprints soon.
Looking at the land in front of her, Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said to Zong Jiayu, "Didn't you expect our development speed to be so fast?"
Zong Jia nodded. "It's both reasonable and unexpected."
Watching from the side, Xiao Jincheng praised repeatedly, "Little Pear, I think you'll be our snack queen in the future!"
"Snack King?" Jiang Xiaoli repeated the title twice.
She smiled and replied, "It's not easy to live up to that title."
Xiao Jincheng patted her shoulder, "It might not be easy for others, but it's a piece of cake for our Little Pear."
Jiang Xiaoli was flattered by his praise, and the corners of her lips turned up almost to the back of her ears.
After Xiao Jincheng's company employees finished measuring the land, they drove to the county and had a meal before returning home.
Xiao Jincheng promised Jiang Xiaoli, "Your new factory will be officially put into use next March."
He added, "It could have been faster, but it was sandwiched in the middle of the Spring Festival, and the workers all had to go home for the New Year."
Jiang Xiaoli nodded in understanding, then asked, "Uncle Xiao, architectural design institutes from all over the country should have come to inspect the site by now, right?"
Xiao Jincheng replied, "Basically all the architectural design institutes and companies we visited have come. It's okay, since our bidding date is January 31st, we can just wait for the results."
Jiang Xiaoli said, "Time is money. I've seen many similar shopping malls under construction in the newspapers, it makes me feel a lot of urgency!"
Xiao Jincheng rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry, Little Pear. As long as the design drawings are finalized and construction begins, we'll definitely be faster than them."
She chuckled, "Uncle Xiao, you sound very confident."
"Hahaha!" Xiao Jincheng laughed and exclaimed, "Now I finally understand what people were saying."
"What did you say?"
Xiao Jincheng replied, "It's just that one sentence: if money can solve a problem, then it's not a problem!"
Jiang Xiaoli laughed when she heard this, and then added, "If money can't solve a problem, then it must be because there isn't enough money!"
The two then looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.
Xiao Muyu was studying in the study when she was disturbed by the two loud voices. She came out to complain, "Bosses, could you please keep your voices down?"
The two immediately lost their temper, and Jiang Xiaoli quickly made a gesture as if she were zipping up her mouth.
She slunk home, grabbed a few books, and went into the Xiao family's study to study with Xiao Muyu.
With only one month left in the semester, Xiao Muyu achieved third place in the midterm exams. She plans to continue her efforts and strive to reach an even higher level.
Jiang Xiaoli's grades have been neck and neck with Xu Xing's lately. Her short-term goal is to beat Xu Xing in the end-of-term test.
December 31st was the first Gregorian New Year that Jiang Xiaoli spent after her rebirth.
That evening, the two families, along with Zong Jia, gathered together for a reunion dinner.
Jiang Xiaoli excitedly dragged Zong Jia and Xiao Muyu out to set off fireworks.
As the New Year's bells were about to ring, she lit the fuse, and dazzling fireworks burst forth in the night sky.
She linked arms with Xiao Muyu and Zong Jiayu, urging, "It's the New Year! It's the New Year! Quickly make a New Year's wish!"
After saying that, she closed her eyes and silently made a wish.
After a while, Jiang Xiaoli opened her eyes and smiled broadly, "Happy New Year!"
Zong Jia and Xiao Muyu also spoke in unison, "Happy New Year!"
She stamped her feet and rubbed her ears. "It's so cold! What wishes did you make?"
Instead of telling her, Xiao Muyu smiled and said, "I know what you wished for!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Xiaoli's eyes. "When did you learn mind reading? How come I didn't know? Tell me, and I'll see if you guessed correctly."
Xiao Muyu tapped her forehead, "Your wish must be to grow ten centimeters taller in the new year!"
Her mouth suddenly opened wide. "Ah, how could I forget to make that wish! I'll make it now, wait for me!"
After saying that, she put her hands together, closed her eyes, and made a wish with her lips slightly moving.
Xiao Muyu laughed so hard she almost fell over. "Why are you patching it up?"
Jiang Xiaoli made a face at her, "I don't care! I'm going to make a wish! I'll make 100 wishes!"
