Chapter 257: Busy and Prosperous



After Zeng Yu and his wife learned about what Zheng Tianxin and his sister had done, they felt even more relieved.

The daughter-in-law is excellent, kind, generous and willing to help her husband's younger brothers and sisters. Their son and daughter are also sensible and smart, not greedy or selfish, and know how to be grateful.

How can their parents not be happy when the children in the family get along harmoniously?

Zheng Tiansen was a little surprised when he learned about his brother and sister's actions, but it also made him happy.

My wife is willing to bring my younger brothers and sisters to make money together. That shows that she is generous. Fortunately, my younger brothers and sisters are not stupid either.

Linglong was also very happy.

She didn't care how much money she could get, but only valued the kindness of her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, which at least proved that her work was not in vain.

If the effort is one-sided, even the kindest and most generous person may feel resentful and dissatisfied over time.

Apart from parents to their children, there are few people who will give to each other without reservation.

Both clothing stores opened before the Chinese New Year.

During the Chinese New Year, many people are willing to spend money to buy new clothes.

Both of their stores have also ushered in a booming business.

Linglong has no time to go back to the family compound. Every day she has to work with Xiaojiang from opening the shop in the morning to closing it at night.

The same is true for Zheng Tianxin.

It’s okay if Zheng Tianxin has a vacation, but Zheng Tianbao still has work to do, so he can only ask for leave from the company a few days in advance.

Originally, only Zheng Tianxin's store wanted to hire someone, but now Linglong feels that her own store also needs one.

Fortunately, there are many people who need a formal job nowadays.

Linglong is not stingy, and Zheng Tianxin treats the employees she hires as well as she does.

Before the Chinese New Year, suitable store clerks were interviewed in both stores and will officially start work after the New Year.

No matter how busy you are, there is always time to rest.

Their shop was busy until the morning of the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and then it closed.

A few days ago, when Linglong started to get busy, Congcong was taken to live in the compound.

There was no other way. Congcong's kindergarten was on holiday, Linglong was busy with the store and had no time to take care of the child, and Zheng Tiansen also had to work during the day, so he couldn't leave Congcong alone at home.

It would be fine if the waiter helped look after Congcong occasionally, but if he had to take care of the child every day, neither Zheng Tiansen nor Linglong would think it was appropriate.

Congcong lived a comfortable life after returning to the compound.

There are his grandparents who dote on him, and the friends he once met in the compound.

Linglong and his wife don’t need to worry about anything.

When Linglong and the others closed the store and returned home to prepare for the New Year, Zeng Yu joked that these busy people finally had some free time.

"Mom, the business was surprisingly good these days before the New Year. We can't be so stingy with money," Zheng Tianxin argued.

Not to mention her, Zheng Tianbao now has the urge to resign.

He didn't dare to tell his father directly, so he first told his sister-in-law, whom he was more convinced of.

After Linglong knew what he was thinking, she advised him to wait for a while.

"Tianbao, right now you and Tianxin only have a small shop and have hired people. You don't have to resign. If you still want to resign when your business grows bigger, then you can do it."

Not to mention that it is not the best time to do business now, there are not many people who quit their jobs to start their own business.

Zheng Tianbao had a good, stable job after all. Putting aside what others would think if he quit, his family would definitely not agree.

Zeng Yu and his wife can currently tolerate their children working part-time in business to make money, but if they have to quit their jobs or take a leave of absence from school, Zheng Tianbao and Zheng Tianxin might think they are too stubborn.

Zheng Tianbao was able to listen to Linglong's words and temporarily gave up the idea of resigning.

Since they had been busy these days, Zeng Yu took Aunt Wei to do the shopping for New Year's goods.

Congcong has gone shopping with his grandmother Zeng Yu many times.

Linglong and the others are all in Beijing, so this year, we will spend the New Year together in the compound.

She has been busy since the holiday and has not even returned to the family compound many times, and there is nothing prepared for the New Year there.

Fortunately, I lived in the compound.

When Zheng Tianxin returned home this time, she just wanted to lie down and rest, but Linglong, as her daughter-in-law, was embarrassed to be a hands-off boss.

Their family hadn't prepared anything. Spending the New Year in the compound was supposed to benefit from the elders. It would be embarrassing for her if she did nothing.

Since there are many people in the family, Zeng Yu is happy to cook more food.

Linglong followed Aunt Wei around and took care of a lot of things.

Zheng Tiansen arrived at the new unit this year and did not dare to relax at all. He had already called the compound and said that he would be back in the afternoon of New Year's Eve.

On the morning of the 30th, Linglong got up early.

When she went out, Aunt Wei had already gotten up and was busy in the kitchen.

Everyone had a simple breakfast. After a short rest, they began to prepare to make dumplings.

After kneading the dough and letting it rise, Aunt Wei mixed the dumpling filling and asked Linglong to season it.

Everyone in the family is convinced of Linglong's cooking skills, so the most crucial step of preparing the stuffing must be given to her.

After the dough has risen, everyone sits together and starts making dumplings.

Congcong has been helping to roll out the dumpling wrappers since he was a child, and now that he is a little older, he still helps with this work.

Zheng Tianxin and Zheng Tianbao were also busy, one helping to roll out the dough and the other helping to wrap it.

With strength in numbers, they chatted and laughed until they used up all the dumpling filling.

There was still some dough left, so Linglong didn't waste it. She made some animal-shaped buns out of it.

The plump white dumplings are put into the pot, and when the water boils again, they float up one by one.

Zheng's father was also very busy today. He and Zheng Tiansen came back at the same time in the afternoon.

As soon as the father and son came back, they ate a bowl of steaming hot dumplings and both praised their delicious taste.

But for them, dumplings are just a snack to fill their stomachs; the main event is the New Year’s Eve dinner in the evening.

Linglong and Aunt Wei each prepared half of the dishes, and Zheng Tianxin helped, making a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.

While helping out, Zheng Tianxin also took the initiative to ask Linglong for advice on how to cook.

Seeing his lazy daughter change little by little, Zeng Yu is happier than anything else.

I also feel more grateful to Linglong for bringing these influences.

This year, apart from Zheng Tianxin's broken heart, everything went smoothly for their family.

Even Zheng Tianxin's sadness over a broken heart was later diluted by her busy life.

Several men in the family raised their glasses to drink in celebration.

Lesbians are drinking something different this year.

It was foreign soda that the awesome comrade Zeng Yu got from the Friendship Store.

Seeing the familiar caramel-colored soda, Linglong missed it and wanted to laugh.

Isn’t this the cola that became popular in the future?

Seeing her sister-in-law Zheng Tianxin picked up the glass bottle and shook it curiously, Linglong immediately spoke up to remind her

"Don't open it yet. Wait for it to settle for a while before opening it."

"Why, sister-in-law, hey, there are bubbles here."

"It will spray out once it's turned on. Those bubbles are carbon dioxide." Linglong explained quickly.

Linglong was so busy reminding her sister-in-law to avoid a tragedy that she didn't notice the strange look her husband gave her.
