Zheng Baozhu opened the cloth bag and found five stacks of money inside, each stack containing 1,000 yuan.
"You gave too much money. This payment is not needed."
"This is the money your father and I have earned recently. Now you have found two more people to help. We can't let people work for free. Now that you are the boss, don't be stingy."
Zheng Baozhu laughed and said, "There are only three of us. How can I be considered the boss?"
"You have an employee and you are also the boss."
"It's time to eat!" Zheng Youlin chopped the roast chicken, put it on a plate and brought it out.
The family of three ate and chatted, talking about their recent business.
Zheng Youlin asked: "I have a friend who wants to buy seafood from us, but I can't even sell enough myself. Baozhu, can you hire a few more employees to increase production?"
Zheng Baozhu is fine.
"Also, you only come back once every two weeks, and the goods are sold out at home and we can't restock them in time. Can you come back once every 5 or 10 days?"
Chen Lifang said, "It will take three days to come back. If you come back every five days, Baozhu will have to be on the train every day. Do you want to tire our daughter out?"
Zheng Youlin scratched his head. "I just thought about having goods to sell every day and forgot about this. Baozhu is not in a hurry. You can send goods as often as you want."
Zheng Baozhu said: "I met a conductor on the train. She said I didn't need to follow the train and could just leave the goods to her. I will try it when I get back."
Chen Lifang was a little worried: "Is this someone I just met and have never dealt with before reliable?"
"I have some concerns, but doing business always involves taking risks. Besides, she works on the train and has a work unit to check, so we are not afraid that she will run away with our goods.
When I return, I will try to bring back a small amount. If everything goes well, I won’t have to travel back and forth so often in the future.”
…
After dinner, Zheng Youlin went to the warehouse to transport the goods to the store.
Zheng Baozhu said she was going to the textile factory to visit her grandfather.
Knowing that Zheng Baoyi and her daughter didn't get along, Chen Lifang told Zheng Baozhu not to talk to her.
Zheng Baozhu came to the textile factory carrying a salted duck.
When the family members in the factory saw this, they all praised Zheng Baozhu for being filial.
Mr. Zheng was naturally very happy to see this. He took Zheng Baozhu's hand and asked, "I heard from your father that you want to start a factory?"
"Dad is exaggerating. He has nothing to do in the army, so he earns some pocket money with the two military wives."
"That's not bad. Businesses all start small. When I passed by your store, I saw many people lining up to buy the seafood you cook."
Zheng Baozhu said modestly: "Everyone just wants to try something new."
When Mrs. Zheng saw her granddaughter bringing a duck, she said to Mr. Zheng, "Mrs. Baosheng is here today, so call the old family over to have dinner together."
Soon, Zheng Baosheng came over with his fiancée Jin Cancan.
As soon as Zheng Baozhu saw Jin Cancan, she went up to her and held her hand enthusiastically: "Hello, sister-in-law. I felt very friendly as soon as I saw you. You are really elegant."
Jin Cancan also responded enthusiastically: "Sister is so beautiful."
Zheng Baozhu said angrily, "Look, I came back in such a hurry that I didn't know my sister-in-law was at home. I didn't have time to prepare a gift."
Jin Cancan said: "I am very happy to see my sister. We are a family from now on, so there is no need to be polite."
"That won't do. You're getting married soon, and I don't know what my sister-in-law likes. How about this? I'll give her money and let her buy it herself."
Zheng Baozhu took out 200 yuan from his pocket.
Jin Cancan exclaimed, this sister-in-law is so generous.
…
Seeing Zheng Baozhu coming back with the salted duck, Zheng Baoyi was waiting at home for her family to call her back for dinner, but when they didn't come, she came on her own.
Just as he was about to enter the door, he saw Zheng Baozhu giving a stack of money to his future sister-in-law, and his face changed immediately.
"Baozhu, come out for a moment."
Zheng Baozhu turned around: "What's the matter?"
Zheng Baoyi said impatiently: "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Zheng Baozhu walked out the door obediently and was pulled aside by Zheng Baoyi.
"How much did you give her?"
"200."
"How can you give so much?"
"I didn't buy any gifts when I came back. I gave money to my sister-in-law to buy it herself."
"I am her biological sister-in-law. You are giving me so much just to suppress me."
Although Zheng Baoyi spoke in a low voice, the people in the room could still hear her.
Zheng Baozhu hesitated for a moment and said, "I understand."
Zheng Baoyi was puzzled: "What do you know?"
Zheng Baozhu then walked into the room and took back the money from Jin Cancan.
Jin Cancan was stunned for a moment. She just gave it to him, why did he want it back?
Zheng Baozhu said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, I felt a sense of familiarity with you the moment I saw you. I knew you were my sister-in-law and I only wanted to give you the best things in the world.
But Sister Baoyi reminded me that I am not your biological sister-in-law. Even if I like you, I cannot give you the money in advance over Sister Baoyi."
Jin Cancan was so angry. The 200 yuan she had earned was gone just like that. It was all because of her sister-in-law.
Zheng Baozhu added: "Sister-in-law, I believe that Sister Baoyi, as my sister-in-law, will definitely give more than me."
After she gives it to you, I will give it to you, so it won’t be considered as suppressing her.”
Zheng Baoyi's face darkened when he heard this.
Zheng Baozhu gave her 200 yuan. If she didn't want to be looked down upon by her sister-in-law, she had to give more than Zheng Baozhu. Asking her to pay so much money was simply cutting into her flesh.
This Zheng Baozhu was born to be her nemesis.
…
Zheng Baozhu said that she had to go back to the Song family and asked her grandmother not to cook for her.
