Chapter 210 Know what is good for you
After dinner that afternoon, Fang Mingche called Lao Zhou's house and asked his brother to pick him up.
Fang Minghua was a little excited on the phone, "We closed after noon. We sold a total of 98 bowls today and made more than four yuan."
If it weren't for the second brother asking him to give a 20% discount on the first day of opening, he would have made more than ten yuan. But it's okay, the original price will be restored tomorrow.
There are very few customers after noon. The key is that they still have a lot of preparation work to do. The stewed臊子 and dumplings they made before are almost used up. At the beginning, they didn't dare to prepare too much for fear that they wouldn't be able to sell them.
Moreover, it's better to prepare fresh dumplings.
Fang Mingche said, "That's not bad. The neighbors who came to take care of the business today bought at most 30 or 40 bowls. It's equivalent to you selling more than 60 bowls. But brother, you have to figure out how many bowls the profit line is. Only after selling that number will you start to make a profit. Rent, water and electricity, food costs, and the labor costs of the two of you should also be taken into account."
He originally suggested selling at a 10% discount for another week to expand the popularity. Even good wine needs a bush. But his eldest brother refused. He did not mention the promotional activities after that.
Hearing Fang Mingche's somewhat cold words, Fang Minghua and Fang Jian, who were listening to the public broadcast next to Fang Mingche, were stunned.
Fang Minghua went back and told Yuan Shufen and his parents, "The second brother asked me to calculate the daily profit line."
Fang's father said, "That's the truth. If you sell it at the original price now, you can make 1.1 cents on a bowl of noodles. But you have to sell it above the profit line to really make a profit. If you don't sell it, you will lose money! Besides, the opening business is always the best. You also refused the discount in the first few days of the opening, so you must be mentally prepared. Business may not be so good starting tomorrow. Today is the day when the store is very busy, and there is a 20% discount. Chinese people are happy when they can get a bargain. So many customers nearby who want to eat or try it came in directly. Tomorrow, without so many people taking care of the business, it will be very deserted at the beginning."
He looked at his eldest son and eldest son . The daughter-in-law looked a little unhappy. After a pause, she said, "Of course, those who feel good after eating today are likely to come again. But 30 cents a bowl of noodles is not cheap compared to the average income today."
Yuan Shufen said, "Dad, we use meat very well."
Father Fang said pertinently, "People nowadays are still thrifty. Most people are not willing to spend too much on a breakfast. More people choose to eat at home. Even if they want to eat out, self-employed people are encouraged nowadays. There are many noodle shops like yours. Those who dare to rent a storefront to open a restaurant are not bad in cooking. Why would people walk a few more steps to come to eat here?"
In the early stage, when it was time to build up popularity, the eldest son was reluctant to discount to 27 cents or 36 cents to sell for a few more days, so as to make small profits but quick turnover. It is very likely that fewer people will come tomorrow.
Instead of guarding the stall and not having many bowls of business in a day, it is better to make less money and more noise at the beginning.
If you say he doesn't listen to advice, he will listen again when he is asked to open a noodle shop. This half-listening and half-not-listening, let alone the second son, he is too lazy to say more.
Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen looked at each other. Business was good at the beginning of the day!
Fang's father said nothing more. He would never turn back until he hits the wall.
The next day, business was indeed much slower. In the morning, more than 30 bowls of noodles and wontons were sold. The臊子 could be kept for tomorrow, and the same was true for the dry noodles. But there were still 18 bowls of wontons left out of the 30 bowls.
If it is kept for a long time, the skin will dry out. Even if they go to a restaurant, they will not want to eat something that has obviously been left for several hours or even overnight.
Now, in addition to their family of four, there are only two other drivers who stayed at the Capital Travel Agency living in the small side courtyard. They are already looking for a house to move out. They can't finish it if they take it home and cook it themselves.
Fang Minghua saw that it was almost noon, so he closed the gauze that kept the wontons, covered the small steamer, and went directly to the courtyard. There are many employees of the travel agency there, and lunch and dinner are provided.
Han Mei, the office director, is also in charge of logistics. She said, "Brother Fang, I can only calculate the cost price for you, and at most add a little labor cost. It is impossible to calculate it according to how much your store sells. After all, we specially hired a cook. If you want to eat wontons, just ask them to make it. It is my responsibility to control the cost of ingredients."
Fang Minghua had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
In this way, at least he won't lose the money.
Han Mei called the cook over and estimated the number. Then she gave him the money.
"Brother Fang, the tour guide and the driver will not come back for lunch. However, it should be no problem for more than ten of us to finish 18 wontons for two meals today. But we can't eat it often, right?"
It depends on how many people choose to eat wontons for lunch. The rest can be put in the refrigerator, so it can be kept longer than if it is left out in the open.
Fang Minghua understood what she meant and accepted it today. But everyone may not want to eat it tomorrow, so don't send it again tomorrow.
"Okay, I understand."
At noon, Fang's father and mother chose to eat wonton, and then Fang Mingche, Lin Yan, Fang Min, Fang Jian, Fang Fang, Yanyan, and Kang Kang. This solved nine bowls.
If their own people don't eat it, how can they expect others to help?
Fang's father said: "It will be sold domestically the next day."
Fang Mingche laughed, "It wasn't exported before. Eat, eat, sister-in-law's wonton is still good. The meat is really generous. How many were sold today?"
Fang's mother pulled her eldest son to ask before, and now she said: "It is said that more than 30 bowls were sold in total."
Fang Mingche said: "That's not bad. It shows that most of the customers yesterday were satisfied with the taste, ingredients and service. How many bowls did the eldest brother calculate the profit line?"
Fang's father curled his lips, "He can't even calculate it. Got it! I used an abacus to calculate for him. Without discount, it’s 45 bowls. With discount, it’s 60 bowls. Not counting their wages today, we can break even. "
Lin Yan said, "That’s really not bad. No wonder Dad chose to sell breakfast for them. My sister-in-law’s cooking skills are really amazing."
Kang Kang also said, "My mom’s wontons are delicious."
Chang Chang saw that everyone was eating, and he also said in his baby chair, "I’ll eat—"
This baby chair was made for him by Song Quan himself after he went to Youyi to discuss and observe other people selling it. Old Song said that Fang Mingche had helped him a lot in the past two years, so he gave back a little.
Don’t mention it, it’s really useful. Wherever you go, you can just pick it up and carry it. It’s also safe to sit on it. Old Song really observed carefully and learned the essence of others.
Lin Yan asked Fang Min to cook two white flavored ones, and gave him the skin around them to eat.
Chang Chang pointed to the remaining lump in the middle, "Meat..."
Lin Yan said, "You kid still knows that this is meat. Mom, can he eat this?"
Fang's mother took a look and said, "This should be similar to minced meat. Feed him less. Feed the skin and meat separately. If he grows up, he might choke."
Fang Min nodded and did as she was told, "Okay."
Seeing the little cousin moving his little mouth to eat happily, Fang Fang asked with a smile, "Chang Chang, is it delicious?"
Chang Chang nodded and smiled with curved eyebrows.
When he returned in the afternoon, Fang's father said to Fang Minghua: "Starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for the food expenses in our courtyard. Your brother provides accommodation for us two old people, and you will be responsible for the food. Isn't this fair? Your two brothers have found a room to rent and are moving out. Fang Jian and the other three have also moved back."
After that, he whispered: "I haven't told you to count the rent for the second son. The room we live in doesn't count. Your family of five lives in four rooms. You should pay at least fifteen yuan a month. In theory, this money should be paid, after all, the second son also spent money to buy this house. 8500, it's not cheap! There are three children, and Mingche paid the high fee of 600 for the first year. Do you still expect him to continue to pay in the second year?"
There is no pressure, and I do my own business. After all, even if I lose money, the pressure of life is not too great. I only think about putting money into my own pocket, and don't think about making some profits to attract customers. Doing business is so simple, just multiplication?
"Dad, we haven't made back our investment yet!" Fang Minghua said.
"So, I didn't ask you to pay rent. Even the high tuition fee is not until September next year. Or, if you two feel stressed, why don't you just buy tickets to go back and leave the old and young ones to the second child?"
Fang Minghua said, "We are not so shameless! We sold more than 30 bowls today, and things will get better gradually."
Fang's father said, "That may not be the case. Maybe another noodle and wonton shop will open in these alleys someday. You have the first-mover advantage now, and Shufen's cooking skills are good. Now you should think about how to get more customers to come and eat, and then turn them into repeat customers."
He took out an abacus to show them that if there is no discount, more than 30 bowls will break even, and if there is a discount, 50 bowls will break even. He doesn't even calculate wages with the two of them now.
But if he sells 60 bowls at a discount, then wouldn't the 10 bowls be extra profit?
"Both of you are willing to work hard and would rather make small profits but quick turnover. Why do you prepare a consolation prize for customers when they are selling the goods? Isn't it to make customers feel better and willing to come again in the future? It's the same principle when you sell noodles. If you give a 10% discount, customers will feel much more comfortable. People have to go to restaurants in the morning and have many choices. Isn't it more economical to eat steamed buns, steamed buns, porridge, soy milk, fried dough sticks and the capital's fighting spirit than noodles and wontons?"
He broke it down and finally persuaded the couple to give a 10% discount starting tomorrow.
Fang's father's calligraphy is good. He asked Yuan Shufen to find a piece of red paper to spread out and help them write "Big opening promotion, 10% discount for all".
The business was obviously much better on the third day. After counting after noon, they sold 66 bowls. They cooked the extra two bowls of wontons themselves. Not counting labor costs, they made more than two yuan today.
Fang Minghua said, "Alas, it's better for Mingfa to go and try to win."
Yuan Shufen said, "Mingche confiscated the rent for his stall and even forbade him to send gifts. We have already paid the rent for the shop. However, everyone said it was delicious after eating it, and I have gained a lot of confidence. Business should be getting better and better. I saw Mingche didn't finish what he said the day before yesterday. Let's go pick up the three children today and ask him on the way."
The brother-in-law is very powerful now, and he will not easily give advice to ordinary people. But before he finished speaking, the father of the child rejected the suggestion of a 10% discount.
She went to say something soft today and asked for the following suggestion.
They went back to ask Fang's mother where the brother-in-law's family lived in the Overseas Chinese Apartment and how to get there.
Fang's mother said, "I'm afraid you will be upset when you go there. Let's do the preparations for tomorrow first. Shouldn't we make the chili oil?"
Yuan Shufen nodded and went to the kitchen to get busy.
She was upset. She heard Kang Kang say that the TV at Yaoba's house was color and much bigger.
When the couple finished all the preparations in the afternoon, they followed Fang's mother to the Overseas Chinese Apartment.
Fang's mother was a registered visitor who could be allowed in without asking the owner. She went in directly with her eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law.
Fang's mother also had the key to the front door, which was given by Fang Mingche. But she greeted her and pressed the doorbell before entering. She took out the key and was about to open the door, but after thinking for a while, she pressed the doorbell again.
Fang Min just came over and looked through the peephole, and the front door had been opened from the outside.
"Seventh aunt, sixth uncle, sixth aunt——" Fang Min made way.
Changchang walked over with his short legs, hugged her legs and looked out, "Grandma——"
Then he looked at Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen, "Uncle, mother——"
Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen were both a little stunned looking at the furnishings in the house. They had only seen such houses in movies, where the big capitalists lived. No wonder mom said she was afraid they would be shocked.
Before, I only heard that Mingche and Ayan rented a house with their children, how could I have thought it was such a good house?
Yuan Shufen bent down and picked up Changchang, "Changchang is so good. Didn't you go downstairs for a walk?"
"I left." Changchang said happily.
Fang Min had already gone to get a cup of water, "I just came back. If you don't go downstairs a few times a day, it won't get dark."
Yuan Shufen drank the water, got up and went into the house to pack things for her children. She packed her two sons' things first. Fang Fang and Yanyan lived in the same room, and she was afraid of taking the wrong things.
"Changchang, which room do the two brothers live in?"
Changchang walked over to lead her, "Here."
Fang Minghua couldn't help but look at several rooms. Except for the dormitory of his brothers and brothers' wives, he went around before coming out and sitting on the sofa.
"Mom, are the things in this room the landlord's?"
"The landlord's, what good is he thinking? They were all bought by Yan."
"Wow, then buying these home appliances and furniture will probably cost tens of thousands of yuan." Nowadays, electrical appliances are notoriously expensive, and the better ones are all imported.
"Yes. Otherwise, how do you think they owed the 180,000 yuan? They bought these, as well as the house, furniture and appliances in the courtyard. The courtyard is for receiving guests, so that's not to mention. They also have to buy the best here."
Fang Minghua touched his chin. He had thought that the second son's debt of 180,000 yuan was exaggerated. Now it seems that it is not. He really owes so much. He is too willing and dares to owe!
"How dare they owe so much?"
"They say they believe in their ability to make money and spend in advance. Going to college and going abroad makes their consumption concept the same as that of foreigners."
She naturally heard about spending in advance from her son and daughter-in-law. An old overseas Chinese moved into the courtyard before, and he could speak Chinese. She also heard from people that foreigners have such consumption concepts when chatting with them.
That person also told her that her son and daughter-in-law are capable people. Moreover, the assets and debts are offset, so there is really no need to worry too much.
Having said that, can a mother not worry at all? When something goes wrong and they can't pay it back, it won't be enough even if they sell their family.
Fang Minghua looked at the apples in the fruit bowl. Fang Min had just washed them and brought them out. There were still water droplets on them, which looked crystal clear and cute.
He picked it up and took a big bite. Mm, delicious. The second child must be living a fairy-like life.
Fang Mingche and Lin Yan came back one after another, and then the four children were picked up by Master He.
Lin Yan said, "Mom, big brother and big sister are here. I'll call dad to come over for dinner after work."
Originally, everyone was going to go together, but now they just asked their father-in-law to come. He could also help them drive the car over.
Yuan Shufen said that they were here to pick up the children, and they couldn't just leave everything to their uncle and aunt.
Lin Yan said, "They are all quite obedient. When you have free time in the future, big brother and big sister can bring the children over often. There is a very good mutton soup nearby, how about we go there tonight?" Fang
Mingche nodded, "Okay." All the fellow villagers and relatives who came to seek refuge were arranged, and finally only their own family was left.
Yuan Shufen sat down next to Fang Minghua, "Mingche, we have a 10% discount today, and we sold 66 bowls. Do you have any suggestions for your brother and sister-in-law? You are a senior who has been successful in business."
Fang Mingche laughed, knowing what was good and what was bad.
But he didn't give too many suggestions. He said, "Sister-in-law, why don't you organize an event to give back to customers? If you eat ten bowls of noodles or wontons, give one bowl for free? Whether you share ten bowls or eat ten bowls at once or twice, you can give it for free. If people eat ten bowls, you will earn more than the cost of one bowl. Besides, with more people, the popularity will naturally increase."
Yuan Shufen and Fang Minghua looked at each other and said, "Okay!"
The noodles made by Yuan Shufen were delicious, and Fang Minghua's service was getting better and better. In addition, with a series of promotional techniques, their business was very good by the end of the month.
In November, they made about 80 yuan in 20 days (including the wages of two people).
The couple smiled from ear to ear. It was the first time to make four yuan a day. Moreover, Mingfa's ring was very popular for a while, and competitors did appear soon. It didn't make that much money. Now it makes at most three yuan a day.
Well, this development finally makes people feel more comfortable.
Father Fang extended his hand directly, "Food expenses. You two eat at the noodle shop, but we two old people and three children eat in the courtyard."
After those fellow villagers moved out, they stopped cooking in the small side courtyard.
Fang Minghua said, "Your old man eats work meals. Just my mother and three children, twenty days!"
He gave thirty yuan distressedly. Eating meat every day, it is not right to give less. However, since he is responsible for the food expenses, he does not have to pay rent.
Fang Mingche did not refuse the thirty yuan. A small amount of rice is a big debt! Moreover, only the cost price is counted, it is indeed about the same.
Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen are also quite satisfied with the remaining fifty yuan. It is much more profitable than farming!
By December, the business was getting better and better, and Fang Minghua was a little too busy to handle it alone. According to his original intention, he wanted to call Fang's mother to help, anyway, the old lady did not have much work a day.
But Fang Mingche said early in the morning that he was too busy to hire someone. Moreover, the old lady had less work to do because they ate in the courtyard and had a washing machine for washing clothes. This was all done by Fang Mingche.
If he asked his mother, who was easy to do, to work for him and didn't pay her, the second son would probably be very
dissatisfied. So, it was better to hire someone to save the second son from arguing. They asked Fang's father to write the conditions and benefits for recruiting people and posted them on the wall.
After posting them, Fang Minghua couldn't help but say to Yuan Shufen, "It's so cold! The capital in early December is almost as cold as the coldest days of winter in Sichuan."
They have already put on their thickest clothes.
Comrade Wang sent a military coat to each of the two elders a few days ago. He said that the family couldn't wear it, so he gave it to them. It must be very warm to wear. However, people gave it to the two elders for the sake of the second son's face. If they covet it, they will be shameless.
The two discussed buying cotton to add to the cotton jackets, so as to fluff the cotton of the old cotton jackets.
Fang's mother said, "Down jackets are very warm. When we and Kang Kang came here in the winter, A Yan bought them for us. Why don't you ask A Yan how much it cost and where it was bought?"
She saved up her own down to make a waistcoat for Fang Jian. It doesn't look good, but it's warm. She has also raised a lot of chickens and ducks in the past six months and saved up a lot. She can also sew the sleeves for Fang Jian. But it's not enough to make another one for an adult, so she should be able to make one for Fang Fang.
When asked, Lin Yan said, "It's about 20 or 30 yuan each. It's not easy to buy, and I asked Comrade Wang to buy it from the down jacket factory in Shanghai."
Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen looked at each other. It's so expensive! They should buy a few yuan of cotton to make it.
Fang Mingche said, "Business is getting better. Since Fang Jian and Fang Fang already have homemade products, you two can buy one each. When you have some extra money, you can give the money to Yan. Especially since you guys get up at six in the morning to open the store, it's freezing cold. It's your first time in the capital, and medicine will be more expensive if you catch a cold."
Fang Minghua said, "You mean, let us spend money in advance?"
"Why not? Don't just save money when you have money. These are necessities of life, you have to buy them when you need them."
Fang Minghua and Yuan Shufen were still reluctant to spend the money. It would cost fifty or sixty yuan in total.
Fang's mother wanted to give them the two military coats, but was stopped by Fang's father's eyes. When no one was around, she asked, "Why not? Mingche wouldn't choose this gift."
Father Fang said, "I've seen it. These two pieces are a little different from what Mingche wore in previous years. Mingche's was bought by one of his students who was in the army. That's what soldiers wear. The two pieces that Xiao Wang brought for us were probably his grandfather's. It's not quite appropriate for the eldest son to wear a general's military coat to serve as a waiter. We should wear the ones given to us. It doesn't matter whether he asks the second son to pay for a down jacket or he weighs the cotton himself to make it thicker."
In the end, Fang Minghua and his wife chose to weigh the cotton to make it thicker. Anyway, it's fine as long as the old and the young in the family are not cold. They wear short thick cotton jackets to work and move more. Besides, how cold can it be to guard the stove?
As for the job recruitment notice posted, people soon came.
The first one to come was Mingfa. "It's getting colder, and my business is getting worse and worse. So I just started selling fried rice in the winter. But I want to find a job during the day."
He used the one or two hundred yuan he earned from catching hoops to buy an old tricycle and set up a tricycle stall. He sold his products at the Dazhalan Night Market and earned hard-earned money. It's not a big deal to make two or three yuan a night. People who set up stalls with him like to patronize them.
But he can definitely make use of it during the day. When he saw that Fang Minghua and his wife's noodle shop was looking for helpers, 24 yuan a month, he came over to recommend himself. He
was one of his own, so he could rest assured. Yuan Shufen said, "Then don't be late in the morning."
"Don't worry, my fried rice cart stall will close at 9pm."
Unexpectedly, Xie Ting also came just after the decision was made.
"Brother Fang, Sister Fang, you want to hire a helper, right? Do you think I can do it?"
Yuan Shufen and Fang Minghua looked at each other, "Aren't you going to take care of Aunt Gao? Besides, I heard that your sister is pregnant."
Xie Ting whispered, "My sister is suspicious after she got pregnant. She wants to drive me away."
Yuan Shufen said, "Little sister, this is unfortunate. We just decided on someone. It's Mingfa from our family, the one who was in Dashilar before. We are a small business and really don't need more people. See if there are any suitable jobs elsewhere."
They went home and told her about the decision to hire Mingfa, and also about Xie Ting.
Fang's mother raised her eyebrows, "Suspicious?"
As she was talking, she saw Fang Mingche and Lin Yan enter the door of the small side courtyard.
"What are you two doing back here?"
If you say you are back to visit the elderly, everyone eats lunch and dinner together in the courtyard every day. It's not necessary to come to visit specially.
Fang Mingche said, "Zhu Dahai and Hu Yong asked us to come here. We also heard that Xiao Xie was pregnant, and A Yan said she would come to see her."
They were wearing down jackets with leather jackets and woolen coats on the outside, and they looked very elegant. Especially compared with the brother and sister-in-law who were wearing big cotton-padded jackets.
The two elders, however, looked much more stylish than the eldest son and daughter-in-law because Lin Yan bought them clothes and accessories.
Speaking of Xiao Xie's pregnancy, Yuan Shufen remembered what happened just now. She told her about Xie Ting's job search and what she said.
Lin Yan said, "Xie Ping said before that Xie Ting was trying to please Aunt Gao and Gao Xiang at home, but she was increasingly ignoring her sister."
Fang Mingche said directly, "Does she want to replace them?"
"Who knows?"
"Distance does not mean separation! Don't interfere in the affairs of two sisters."
Lin Yan said, "Xie Ping herself felt that it was wrong and told me about it. She was such a big girl and didn't know how to avoid suspicion. It was also Xie Ping who said that she wanted to introduce a partner to her. After all, if she was sent back, her father would definitely take her away to exchange for a betrothal gift. Later, I don't know how they communicated, and there was no follow-up. However, Xie Ping asked me if I knew any good boys before, and I said that there was no suitable one. With her sister like this, how can I introduce a good boy?"
If she said so, Xie Ting really had a big problem. You don't want to go back to your hometown and want to find one in the capital. This is normal. Who would want to go back after seeing the world?
Then don't be so attentive to your brother-in-law. Sister-in-law and brother-in-law, it's better to avoid suspicion. They are all big girls of seventeen or eighteen! As a result, Gao Xiang is avoiding her everywhere.
Now, no one knows what happened that made Xie Ping even say to send her back.
However, no matter whether it is for public or private reasons, she should go to see Xie Ping.
"Don't worry, I won't interfere in other people's family affairs."
Yan Yan originally wanted to go with her mother, but after hearing what the adults said, it seemed that Aunt Xie and her sister had a conflict. Then she would not go.
Fang Fang was boiling water in the small kitchen at this moment. Seeing them coming, she put a few more raw sweet potatoes into the stove and buried them with straw ash. Then she walked out, "Dad, Mom..."
Kang Kang was waiting to eat the roasted sweet potatoes nearby, so he followed and came out to call for help.
Fang Mingche and Lin Yan nodded to their siblings. Then Fang Chang said, "Go to the kitchen and play with big sister, it's warm inside."
Yan Yan took him in. It is said that after burying the sweet potatoes, they can eat them soon. The little guy grinned with joy.
Yanyan said to him, "You fart all the time after eating!"
Changchang said, "Far!"
Kangkang patted his shoulder, "Yes, if you have something to say, just say it, if you have something to fart, just fart. What's the big deal?"
Outside, Lin Yan said, "Mom and Dad, Mingche and I will go to see Xiao Xie."
Fang's mother nodded, "Go ahead, you should go and see him."
Lin Yan took the milk powder, malted milk and canned yellow peaches from Fang Min, and went around to the nearby courtyard with Fang Mingche. They all took double portions, one for Xie Ping and one for Aunt Gao.
Fang Min also went into the kitchen.
Fang Minghua asked Fang Jian to help them with the bills, and he came out to say hello and went in to use the abacus. At this moment, only the little ones were in the kitchen.
Going next door, Fang Mingche and Lin Yan put the things on the eight-immortal table.
Aunt Gao seemed to be talking to Gao Xiang just now, and she forced a smile when she saw them, "Xiao Fang and Xiao Lin are here."
"Yes, aunt."
Lin Yan exchanged a few words of greeting and went into Xie Ping's room. Xie Ping was still a little angry. I didn't see Xie Ting, maybe she was in her room next door.
"Why are you angry now? No matter what happened, don't take it to heart. Your own health is the most important!"
Xie Ping said, "I saw Gao Xiang hugging my sister. I told Xie Ting to pack up and go home early for the New Year, but my mother-in-law said I was looking for trouble."
Lin Yan said, "The New Year is still forty or fifty days, and you are pregnant again. Although Aunt Gao is better, it is difficult for her to take care of herself. It is a bit strange to send her back at this time. Besides, there are so many things to do at home, who will do it? As for what you said about seeing Gao Xiang hugging her, then I ask you, do you trust Gao Xiang?"
Xie Ping hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
"That's right. You know yourself that seeing is not necessarily believing. Maybe Xie Ting was about to fall, so he subconsciously hugged her to help her. As a result, you just happened to see it. Was he facing you or facing you?"
"His back was to me."
"What about your sister?"
"She was facing me. Do you think she might have done it on purpose?"
Lin Yan didn't say much, "Since you didn't have an attack before, you really can't leave her now. At this critical moment, even if you want to drive her away and replace her with someone else, it's not that convenient. Also, she ran to Mingche's noodle shop to work as a helper, saying that you were suspicious and wanted to drive her away."
