This feeling... well, it's quite novel.
Controlling her emotions, Wang Cuilan took out twenty Great Unity tickets from her hand and gave them to Wang Cuixiang and Zhou Mingwu respectively.
This was the reward Wang Cuixiang received for taking care of the orchids and Zhou Mingwu received for selling the orchids to others.
"Sister, I don't want it." Wang Cuixiang and Zhou Mingwu both refused.
They felt that they had not done anything and felt guilty taking so much money from their sister.
"Take it!" Wang Cuilan glared. "I'm giving it to you, so just take it. Why are you refusing?"
"But..." Seeing that they were still about to refuse, Wang Cuilan waved her hand, "Just think of it as me being happy that I've made some money. This is your pocket money, right?"
Wang Cuixiang said silently, "These days, have you ever seen a family give so much pocket money?"
Although they complained in their hearts, Wang Cuixiang and her fiancée did not say anything to refuse.
After happily collecting the money, Zhou Mingwu asked Wang Cuilan, "Sister, what are your plans for the remaining fifty orchid pots at home? Are you still going to sell them?"
"Sell it, as long as the price is right!" said Wang Cuilan.
"Why? What do you think?"
“I have an idea, but I don’t know if it’s feasible.”
Zhou Mingwu said, "Aren't I going back to my hometown soon?"
"I thought our provincial capital city had some history and there were probably a lot of wealthy families there, so I wanted to take a couple of orchids back to promote them."
Zhou Mingwu has three-dimensional facial features and a handsome face, and his face is full of confidence when he speaks.
"It just so happens that I met a lot of people from the provincial capital when I was driving a car. I think selling a few orchids shouldn't be a problem."
Wang Cuilan blinked, not expecting such a surprise, and said immediately after hearing it.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mingwu. When you come back from your hometown, I will ask Xiangxiang to cook for you and we will have a meal together."
Wang Cuixiang is a good cook, but she seldom cooks.
So much so that Zhou Mingwu could not forget the food cooked by Wang Cuixiang every time he ate it.
Looking forward to the next meal.
Wang Cuilan's promise touched Zhou Mingwu's heart. His eyes suddenly lit up. "Don't worry, sister. I will definitely perform well and try to sell our orchids at the highest price possible."
"That's right..." He hesitated, "Sis, can I order food when Xiangxiang cooks?"
"I don't think it's a big deal." Wang Cuilan waved her hand generously, "No problem, when the time comes, just tell Xiangxiang what you want to eat and let her make it for you."
Wang Cuixiang, who had been clearly arranged by her sister, secretly rolled her eyes and just knew how to order me around!
Zhou Mingwu returned earlier than expected, less than seven days after leaving.
In other words, excluding the time spent on the road, Zhou Mingwu did not stay at home for three days.
Wang Cuixiang asked, "Didn't your family say they were looking for a date for your sister and wanted you to take a look? Why did you come back after just a few days? Has your sister's marriage been settled?"
"Don't mention it!" Zhou Mingwu's face darkened.
"I don't know what's wrong with that damn girl Zhou Mingxia. She broke off the engagement on the eve of both parents' meeting to discuss the marriage. She told my parents that she still can't forget her ex and asked them to agree to it."
Wang Cuixiang had never expected to hear such gossip. Her eyes lit up and she looked at Zhou Mingwu eagerly, "And then? Did your parents agree?"
Zhou Mingwu nodded. "How could I not agree? My parents love her the most out of three siblings."
"Now she's even kneeling down to beg my parents to let her be with that man. What else can they do?"
Zhou Mingwu really didn't want to mention Zhou Mingxia right now. He would get so angry if he did, so he changed the subject and said, "Sister, I sold the two orchid pots I brought back this time. I got fifty and seventy yuan respectively."
"Here is the money from selling orchids, count it." Zhou Mingwu took out twelve Great Unity banknotes from his trouser pocket and handed them to Wang Cuilan.
Wang Cuilan took it, counted it carefully, and nodded, "That's a lot. Thank you for your hard work."
Zhou Mingwu grinned, "It wasn't hard. It's mainly because our orchids are so good. I brought them to their door, and they bought them without much bargaining."
"In addition to the two pots of orchids I brought back to the provincial capital, they also ordered another orchid of the same quality."
"Cash on delivery, remitted by mail. Take the middle price, sixty per pot. Five pots for now."
After the matter was said, Zhou Mingwu didn't care anymore and looked at Wang Cuixiang eagerly, "Xiangxiang, I promised me that as long as I behaved well, I would let you cook for me."
"So when will you cook yourself? I can help you." Zhou Mingwu said.
Wang Cuixiang snorted coldly, "You help me? You're more like helping me eat!"
Zhou Mingwu: “…”
On the fifth day after asking her friend at the train station to take away five pots of orchids, Wang Cuilan received a remittance slip for 300 yuan.
Adding the money she earned from selling orchids and some savings she had previously, Wang Cuilan now has almost two thousand yuan.
Wang Cuilan was worried about keeping the money in her hands, but she also felt it was not worth it to deposit it in the bank. After thinking it over, Wang Cuilan decided that it would be better to buy a house.
It just so happened that she had three children and had only bought two houses, so she was still one house short. Now was the perfect time to fill the gap.
She acted immediately. Before school started, Wang Cuilan took some time to go to the Housing Authority and find Xie Zheng's former classmate, asking him to help keep an eye out for anyone who was going abroad and needed to sell their house.
It was a coincidence that the next day after Wang Cuilan met her old classmate Xie Zheng, she received news that someone was selling a house and asked her to go and take a look.
