After seeing his family off, Feng Haidong looked at his three older cousins and was about to grin at them.
The eldest cousin, Liu Fenzhen, came up and tapped Feng Haidong's forehead with her hand.
“Feng Haidong, if you ever do this again and leave without saying goodbye to your aunt and uncle, be careful that the three of us sisters will disown you as our brother.”
Second cousin Liu Fenxiu said, "Eldest sister is right. If you continue like this, we will disown you."
Third cousin Liu Fenlin grabbed Feng Haidong's ear.
“Feng Haidong, I think you’ve grown up. Now that you’re capable, you’re starting to play tricks on your older sisters, aren’t you? You dare to do something like leaving us without saying goodbye.”
Feng Haidong was grabbed by the ear by his third cousin and then scolded by his eldest and second cousins in turn.
All I could do was obediently say, "Okay, okay, I promise I won't do it again. From now on, whether my parents come or they go back, I'll tell you in advance."
Liu Fenlin grabbed Feng Haidong's ear and said, "That's right. You'd better teach me a lesson and not do this again."
Feng Haidong said, "Actually, my original idea was to let them stay for lunch and then slowly go back in the afternoon, but my parents said that they still had to go back to the town after they went back, and they were worried that if they went back too late, it would delay their return to the town."
Liu Fenzhen said, "Then you should have told us too."
Liu Fenlin said, "Yes, then you should tell us too."
Feng Haidong said helplessly, "I know, I know, there will definitely not be a next time."
Liu Fenxiu said, "Alright, Sanlin, let him go. Let's give him some face in the street."
Liu Fenlin then let go of Feng Haidong's hand, and waved his hand in front of Feng Haidong, saying, "If there's a next time, I'll tear your ear off."
At this moment, Feng Haidong felt as if he had returned to his childhood.
At that time, Feng Haidong was in elementary school in the provincial capital. He was well taken care of by his cousins, but of course, he would be disciplined by his older sisters if he was naughty.
The third cousin was not much older than Feng Haidong, but she never showed any mercy when she taught him a lesson.
This ear-pulling trick is truly one of my third cousin's signature moves.
Faced with his three older cousins, Feng Haidong had no choice but to obediently accept the punishment.
"Okay, I was wrong this time. I'll definitely tell you in advance next time. When I was dropping my parents off, I was thinking that I should learn to drive and buy my own car in the future. Otherwise, it's really inconvenient to go back and forth all the time."
This statement was agreed upon by her three older cousins.
My older cousin said, "You really should have your own car. That way, it will be convenient for you to go home in the future, and it will also be convenient for you to go to the fish farms in town to coordinate the sales of fish and crayfish. With a car, you can also pick up your aunt and uncle to come to the provincial capital for a while from time to time."
My second cousin said, "Your brother-in-law also said before that he would find it very convenient to have his own car. However, neither your brother-in-law nor I can drive. We were thinking of letting Xiangyang learn to drive after he graduates."
My third cousin said, "With a car, it will be more convenient for us to visit my aunt and uncle, as well as my younger brother and dad."
Feng Haidong said, "It's better if we take a car to my uncle's place. The mountain roads there are really not easy for ordinary drivers to navigate."
Feng Haidong's words reminded his cousins of the road conditions on the winding mountain road when they went there before, and they all nodded in agreement.
After chatting for a while in front of the train station, Feng Haidong and his three cousins took a taxi back to the shop.
Back at the store, the fish and crayfish for today were delivered.
My cousin's husband, Ma Bangcheng, was unloading the truck with his men.
Song Rui was also making arrangements: where should the fish be placed? And where should the crayfish be placed?
Seeing everyone busy at work, Feng Haidong rushed into the store, grabbed an apron, put it on, and joined the unloading team.
Liu Fenxiu and Liu Fenlin, who were standing at the door, were both somewhat surprised by the busy scene.
Previously, they usually came in the afternoon or evening, and had not yet seen what the store was like in the morning.
Neither Liu Fenxiu nor Liu Fenlin expected that Feng Haidong's shop was also very busy in the morning.
Watching Feng Haidong and the others busy, Liu Fenlin said to her second sister beside her, "I didn't expect that Haidong and the others would be working so hard. They have to start organizing all this every morning and then prepare all sorts of things."
Liu Fenxiu said, "It is indeed very hard work. During the May Day holiday, we only operate in the afternoon and evening. It may be relatively easier for my sister and Haidong. After the May Day holiday, some construction sites in the surrounding area will start work. My sister and Haidong will have to cook lunch and deliver it to the construction sites, which will be even more hard work."
Liu Fenlin said, "That's really true. It seems that doing business is not easy."
Liu Fenxiu said, "It's definitely not easy. Nothing is easy these days."
At this point, Liu Fenxiu lowered her voice and said to her younger sister, "Sanlin, let me tell you, your older sister and Haidong have succeeded. Your brother-in-law has met many people who have failed in their businesses. Those people have it really tough. They work very hard every day, but they still can't make a profit."
After a moment of silence, Liu Fenlin said, "I'm really not suited for business. I'd better stay in the hospital."
Liu Fenxiu said, "None of us can do it, only my eldest sister and Haidong can."
Then Liu Fenxiu continued, "Think about it, to expect us to be like my older sister and Haidong, greeting people with smiles every day, running around to construction sites to solicit business, and delivering meals to people, to be honest, I really can't bring myself to do those kinds of things."
Liu Fenlin said, "I can't do it either. Thinking about it this way, I really admire my older sister and Haidong."
