She thought for a moment and said, "Frozen food is not fresh and doesn't taste good. What's more, if it melts during transportation, wouldn't the food in the truck be smelly when it reaches the destination?"

"How much damage will this cause? Can we afford it?"

Money is secondary. Chen Xiaoying herself has lived a hard life. When she was young, she encountered a natural disaster and people were so hungry that they had to eat old tree bark. It was God's will that she survived.

She just thought about how many buns and dumplings made with so much rice, flour and oil would go bad.

Her heart felt like it was stabbed by a knife.

Li Yutong smiled and said, "Grandma, you are really ambitious. You want to pull a truckload of stuff. Why don't you discuss it with Secretary He first? If he thinks it's still difficult for the time being, then we can do it step by step. After I go to the provincial capital to study, I will open a bun shop in the provincial capital, build a reputation in the province first, and then do frozen food."

Now Chen Xiaoying is rich, and her granddaughter Li Yutong is also rich. The advantage of being rich is that they have the capital to try and can bear the cost of failure.

"Okay." Chen Xiaoying decided immediately that she could give it a try.

The county town is not big, and she has opened shops in the three places with the largest traffic, and the income is very good. Her granddaughter's hot pot restaurant and storefront earn more income than her, and she doesn't have to worry about it.

Chen Xiaoying absolutely believes in her granddaughter's vision.

Looking at her eldest granddaughter Li Yutong, who made her feel at ease, Chen Xiaoying couldn't help but think of her youngest granddaughter Li Yumeng: "Xiaoyu, do you think Xiaomeng can still be taught back?"

Li Yumeng?

Li Yutong didn't know what to say. In her previous life, she had experienced firsthand how cold-hearted Li Yumeng was.

The eldest aunt Li Hongyan is selfish and calculating, and the second aunt Li Hongli is selfish and unaware, which can make her angry to death, but these two, at least, are good at saving face.

As for Li Yumeng, her selfishness is different. She can't even express her free concern for her parents verbally or call home once a month.

A serious bird will fly away on its own after it grows up and leaves the nest.

My fourth uncle and fourth aunt were in the hospital. When I asked her to see them even though she hadn't been home for several years, she would always say, "I don't have time."

No time? You don’t even have time to visit your parents, so where should you spend your time?

"Mother." Li Yutong thought for a moment and said, "As long as you try your best and have a clear conscience, that's all."

To Li Yumeng, grandma is her own grandmother and hopes that her granddaughter will be well.

She was a cousin to a younger cousin. In her previous life, when her fourth uncle was indifferent to her family, she was able to play the role of a daughter. When they needed help, she would send them things and take them to see a doctor. She thought she had done a good job.

But Li Yumeng was only impatient and picky with her. The more she did, the more Li Yumeng hated her.

I couldn't understand why at the time, but later I realized that the more she did, the more Li Yumeng seemed like an inhuman being. She had to find fault with her work to show that she didn't have to thank her at all, and that she didn't blame her because she was being tolerant.

Her grandmother Chen Xiaoying also sighed: "Okay."

It's late at night, and it's time for the grandparents and grandchildren to go to bed.

Early the next morning, Chen Xiaoying, who was very concerned about the importance of food hygiene, gathered all the employees together and talked about the importance of food hygiene.

"It must be clean and hygienic. Our store is doing good business. There must be a lot of students and parents coming to buy food these days. If something is not done well, it will delay the children's exams. This is a major event that affects the fate of others for the rest of their lives. You must pay attention, understand?"

Naturally, all the employees said they knew.

In fact, Chen Xiaoying is redundant. She doesn't open many branches in order to take a steady and solid approach. She goes to each store to help out every day and check the raw materials of the food to see if they are fresh and clean.

She was scared a few days ago. A bottle of soy sauce in a store at the train station looked new, but when she picked it up, she found that the expiration date had expired half a month ago.

She called over a dozen employees and asked them, but they didn't know either. After comparing the information they knew with each other, she finally found out.

About half a year ago, someone from the spice store came to deliver goods. When they were unpacking the cartons, a bottle fell and rolled under the bar table. The bar is very heavy and normally does not move, so they did not notice it.

Something fell under the bar a few days ago and was poked out from the corner of the bar against the wall. The employee didn't notice it and it looked quite new, so he just wiped it and used it.

Chen Xiaoying took a look and noticed that the people in the seasoning store saw that they used a lot of goods, and the things they sent were about to expire in three months. According to the usual usage, they would be used up in half a month. This bottle was completely unexpected.

Even so, she felt unhappy about it. She punished the employees and also told the people at the seasoning shop about the situation. They asked her to send seasonings with new expiration dates in the future. Otherwise, she would have to order from another store. She had been using the store for several years and the store gave repeated assurances before she felt relieved.

Chen Xiaoying took it seriously this time and took food hygiene seriously. She specifically instructed the store manager to conduct strict inspections. Now that the college entrance examination is approaching, it is an even more special period.

After Chen Xiaoying finished her busy work at the old store, she rode her bicycle to the store at the train station to take a look. Everything was in order. She had a lot on her mind these days, so she went to the store at the No. 1 Hospital in the city to look for her cousin, Su Wanping.

She was too embarrassed to say what happened during this period.

He only asked Su Wanping: "How are you feeling these days? If you feel tired, there are so many employees in the store, you must not force yourself to stay."

At that time, she was short of manpower, so she called her 50-year-old cousin who had just retired to help.

My cousin is alone at home, and her adopted daughter Ma Hongxiu is abroad and has not come back for several years. She is also very lonely, so this is just the best of both worlds.

Su Wanping smiled and pinched the steamed dumplings: "It's good."

My cousin has always been gentle. She is in her fifties and looks strong.

Chen Xiaoying said, "If there is anything, you must tell me, but don't keep it in your heart, otherwise it will be bad for your health."

Su Wanping hesitated for a moment.

Chen Xiaoying saw it and asked hurriedly, "What's going on?"

Su Wanping was embarrassed to say it.

Chen Xiaoying was puzzled: "Tell me, who are we still with?"

Su Wanping then pretended to be very happy and said, "Hongxiu is going back to China. I am very happy."

Chen Xiaoying understood that no matter what the situation was in her cousin's family, Ma Hongxiu was the daughter raised by her cousin. She was only two months old when she was brought to her. She was treated as her own daughter, held in her arms, and raised with all kinds of love.

She also didn't want to pour cold water on her and say that Ma Hongxiu was a good-for-nothing.

I had to smile and said, "This is good news. Hey, I remember you said Hongxiu gave birth to three children. Will she bring all of them with her when she comes back this time? Will her American husband come?"

She had only seen foreigners on TV. When asked what Ma Hongxiu's husband looked like, Su Wanping didn't like to say. There was not a single photo of him at home, so Chen Xiaoying couldn't help but be curious.

She had seen Americans on TV; they all had blond hair, white skin, and blue eyes.

Su Wanping just smiled faintly and shook her head: "... just her."
