The Zheng family on the first day of the junior high school entrance examination was filled with joy because of Congcong's childish words and conversation.
Xiao Jiang didn't go home for the New Year because it was already the 29th day of the 12th lunar month when he finished working in the store, and it was too late to go home.
Moreover, Xiao Jiang was reluctant to spend money on the travel expenses.
Even though he made a lot of money after following Linglong, he was still frugal at heart.
Knowing that Linglong had such a partner, who was also his son's former soldier, Zeng Yu had originally suggested that Xiao Jiang and the Zheng family celebrate the New Year together.
Linglong did mention it to Xiaojiang, but Xiaojiang just shook his head.
He would rather spend the New Year alone in the store than go to the Zheng family in the compound.
Linglong didn't want to force it, so she just sent some wrapped dumplings to Xiaojiang when he was thirty.
Originally, Xiao Jiang planned to just make do with his 30th birthday, but he ended up eating some delicious dumplings and was so moved that he burst into tears.
Thinking of his relatives in his hometown, he became even more determined to make a name for himself in the capital.
When he becomes successful, he will follow Sister Linglong's example and buy a yard in Beijing. It doesn't have to be big, just big enough to live in.
When the time comes, you can bring me to the capital to enjoy a good life.
Dreaming about these things, Xiao Jiang felt full of energy and couldn't wait to open the store.
But Linglong doesn't want to be so stubborn.
She planned to officially open the store on the first day of the Lunar New Year after the fifth day.
These days, not only Xiao Jiang, but she also needs to have a good rest.
During the second and fifth days of the New Year, the Zheng family was bustling with activity.
There are guests who come to the store and have the opportunity to taste the exquisite craftsmanship and they also praise it highly.
Zeng Yu and his wife were extremely proud.
Zheng Tiansen has basically been living in the compound these days.
It would have been fine during the day, but during the Chinese New Year, he felt doubly lonely and particularly desolate when he lived alone in the military family compound.
It’s still warmer to come to the compound to find my wife and children.
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the festive atmosphere faded a lot, and Linglong and Zheng Tianxin's stores also reopened.
The store clerks on both sides came to report on time.
Linglong's base salary for its store employees is considered medium, but there is a performance commission.
If the clerk sells more clothes, the commission will be considerable.
On the first day of the store's opening, she also went to the store and waited there for a whole day.
After the New Year, there are fewer customers buying new clothes.
With the new clerk, the store is more than capable of handling three people and it's not busy at all.
It happens that I am not busy these few days, so I can give the new staff some practice.
Zheng Tianxin also followed suit.
Anyone who can pass the interview for Linglong to become a shop assistant is certainly not stupid. After just a few days, he got the hang of the job.
Linglong looked relieved and stopped staying in the store all day. She also gave Xiaojiang some instructions.
"While I'm away, Xiao Jiang, you'll be taking on the responsibilities of the store manager. There won't be many people around, so let Sister Luo handle it on her own. If she's too busy, you can help out. Your main tasks right now are purchasing and managing the accounts."
"Sister Linglong, I understand." He used to call Linglong sister-in-law because of Zheng Tiansen, but now he has changed to calling her sister, which seems closer.
It was a relief for Linglong not to have to stare at the store all the time.
She enjoys the happiness of making money, but doesn't want to make herself so tired.
In essence, she is not a person with a strong sense of career.
You can’t stay at home every day during the New Year holiday.
Now that she can let go of the store, she wants to take her son out to play.
It’s a place suitable for children. Linglong took Congcong to the zoo.
The store was not busy, so Zheng Tianxin dared to run around and followed them.
It was Congcong’s first time to visit the zoo, and he was very happy to see all the animals.
Of course it wasn’t that Linglong didn’t want to bring him here before, she just felt that the child was too young and it wasn’t suitable.
After entering kindergarten, Congcong made great progress in all aspects. Linglong felt that he was a big boy now, so she arranged for him to go to the zoo.
But Congcong still felt a little regretful. "It would be great if Dad could come too." He envied other children who came with their parents.
Linglong looked at her son and patted his head. "Next time when Dad is free, let's come together."
Congcong immediately became excited.
Children's sorrow comes quickly, and happiness also comes quickly.
Linglong sighed to her sister-in-law. "It seems that fathers really are an indispensable role in a child's growth." She is now very glad that she chose to marry her husband because of Congcong.
Although it was a fake marriage, they are now a real family.
"Sister-in-law, looking at you, my brother, and Congcong, I feel like I'm looking forward to getting married and having children again."
There was always laughter and joy in the house these days, and the pain she felt from the breakup had completely dissipated.
She can't stop believing in love and marriage because of a failed relationship. She's not that fragile.
Linglong was very happy for her. "You'll find someone better sooner or later."
"Thank you for your good advice." Zheng Tianxin winked.
Zheng Tianxin did come out of it, but a certain man regretted it.
As soon as school started, Zheng Tianxin came to the campus and saw her ex who came to see her.
The man pleaded with a look of regret. "Tianxin, I'm sorry. I was too petty. Let's make peace."
Zheng Tianxin frowned. "No need. I don't want to eat grass."
The man was shocked. "How could you do this? Have you found someone else?"
Zheng Tianxin was disgusted. "We've broken up. What I want has nothing to do with you. Don't bother me anymore."
"Zheng Tianxin, you will regret this!"
"I don't know if others will regret it, but I, Zheng Tianxin, will never regret it."
When seeing Linglong again, Zheng Tianxin started to complain crazily.
"Sister-in-law, how did he become like this? I don't even recognize him anymore."
Linglong comforted her. "It's hard to change a person's personality. He might have just been pretending to be better before. You should be thankful that you haven't taken the step of getting married yet."
The more Zheng Tianxin thought about it, the more it made sense, and her mood improved a lot.
Zheng Tianxin felt upset when her ex-boyfriend came to her to ask for reconciliation, so she only told her sister-in-law Linglong and kept the rest of the family in the dark. Otherwise, her ex-boyfriend would probably have been beaten by Zheng Tianbao.
If Zheng Tiansen's identity wasn't sensitive, he would have been beaten even more.
Throughout the winter vacation, until school started, Linglong had hardly been to the military family compound.
It was not until school started that she started commuting normally.
Zhao Aihong and Wang Juanting hadn't seen her for a long time and missed her very much.
The two of them didn't know that she had opened a clothing store in Beijing and was making some trouble, and Linglong didn't plan to tell them for the time being.
Whether it can no longer be hidden is a matter for the future. Anyway, she will not actively publicize it in the family area.
Her mother-in-law's nature makes her do things in a low-key manner, without the urge to show off.
Although the clothing store is not large, it makes a lot of money every month if it stabilizes.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the business in the store gradually picked up. It was estimated that she would be able to generate a considerable amount of income every month. She also received a 20% dividend from Zheng Tianxin's store. Her wallet would only get fatter in the future.
She is well aware of the principle of making a fortune in silence.
