Chapter 252, Do It Yourself
"Girl, why do you think so much? It's only been a short time since we opened the store, and you want to set up a factory. Is it so easy to run a factory?" Aunt Meilian was worried.
A happy New Year was ruined by this awful girl.
"Mom, it's not that I just want to do this, but it's necessary. I have discussed this with Dazhu. He will not go to work and come back to help me open the factory."
She thought this was a feasible idea. She had been abroad, to places like Guangdong, Shenzhen and other cities, and had seen how prosperous those places were. As long as she could make clothes that people liked, she would not be afraid of not being able to sell the clothes.
This idea is a bit risky, but it is better than sticking with that fixed salary.
Now the daily income from my shop is higher than Dazhu's monthly salary in the factory.
Her mother-in-law no longer goes to work and helps her take care of the children at home, so she has plenty of time to do things and earn money.
Now that she had a way to go, she didn't want to stop.
"Mom, I agree with this. I will sell my job before the New Year." I can still make some money by selling my job now.
After hearing what her son-in-law said, Aunt Meilian realized that this girl came back just to inform her.
"Look at your lovely daughter, she's even more troublesome than your son." Aunt Meilian complained to her husband.
He Zhengcai was holding his grandson in his arms. "If the children are motivated, just let them go. The worst that can happen is that after they fail, you can just give them a warm home."
He didn't achieve much, but that didn't stop his children from achieving much. "We are all old, and now the world belongs to the young people." Times are changing.
"Are you really confident in letting them go?" Aunt Meilian asked unwillingly.
"What else? Can you make them regret it? Didn't you see that Dazhu quit his job?" He finally realized that his daughter was too carefree.
Fearing that his in-laws might be upset, He Zhengcai said to them, "The children are making trouble, and I'm sorry to have made you worry."
Wang Dazhu's parents are also people who love their children. "What my in-laws said is that it is better for children to be enterprising than to just eat and wait for death. Nowadays, the outside world is changing every day. I support their idea."
The Queen Mother also nodded, "Yes, I am at home taking care of the children now, so that Lixia can be free to take care of business matters. We can't help with these matters."
Among the Wang family, only Wang's father still works in the factory, and everyone else has really lost their income.
"Hey, you guys."
After this matter was settled, the whole family celebrated the New Year happily.
"Mom, when are we going to visit Third Grandma to pay New Year's greetings?" After Lixia finished explaining everything, she started thinking about visiting Third Grandma's house to pay New Year's greetings.
"There's no rush. Go with Anshan and Anwen tomorrow. Don't go today." The second day of the Chinese New Year is the day my daughter returns home.
"Okay, I'll prepare the gifts and we'll go there early tomorrow morning." Lixia said enthusiastically.
"Okay, go ahead, and remember to prepare the red envelopes for Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng as well."
"My dear relatives, you should come with us tomorrow. Third Aunt may sound a little harsh, but she is a good person in her heart. Our family is what it is today, all thanks to Third Aunt." Aunt Meilian explained to her relatives.
"I know about this. Wasn't it Xiaoxue who came up with the idea for Lixia's store? I also prepared a New Year's gift for her this time. I really have to thank her."
The Wang family is also reasonable.
"Haha, yes, Xiaoxue is capable, let me tell you..."
When talking about Xiaoxue, Lixia felt like she was picked up.
Wang Dazhu chatted with his father-in-law.
Around noon, a large group of children ran over and rushed in to wish everyone a happy new year.
Mei Xue was so shocked that she didn't react for a moment, but Grandma Mu pushed her and said, "Congratulations on your prosperity."
A plate was taken out from the main room, filled with food, which were snacks prepared long ago for the children to pay New Year's greetings.
Mei Xue immediately responded after seeing Grandma Mu's actions, "Happy New Year."
I have to say, it’s really a different experience to have so many children coming together to wish everyone a happy new year.
One big plate was not enough, so Mei Xue happily filled another one and did not stop until she had given food to all the children.
Watching a dozen children happily running to the next house, Mei Xue felt the urge to follow them.
Fortunately, she still had her sanity and did not do such a shameful thing.
"Life in the village is really getting better and better." Mei Xue sighed.
Grandma Mu smiled but said nothing.
We eat dumplings on the first day of the first lunar month. With the help of several people, there are at least one or two thousand dumplings in the house. We eat dumplings at noon and in the evening.
Fortunately, the dumplings are delicious, otherwise the old man would have rebelled.
The first day of the first lunar month passed like this. At night, Mei Xue and He Anze lay on the bed and began to discuss their plans for this year.
"After the yard on the back hill is repaired, I plan to renovate the old house." After Mei Xue coaxed the child to sleep, she started chatting with He Anze about family matters.
"I have no objection, but I can't afford the money." She knew his bottom line.
Mei Xue laughed, "No need, I haven't used the old men's money yet. It's more than 40,000 yuan, and grandma doesn't even want to count it now." Mei Xue thought about the look on her grandma's face when she returned the money to her.
"You, your family was poor before, and your grandmother always counted carefully. She had never seen so much money before, so she liked to count it. Now that she has seen so much money, how can she be interested?"
He Anze was helpless. Every time Mei Xue received money, she would count it for her grandmother. Now the old lady was less and less interested in money.
Mei Xue nodded: "Yeah, I'm tired of counting like this every day. Okay, I'll tell you about this. And I don't want to buy the furniture in the back mountain anymore." Some things don't look good when you buy them.
Having seen new furniture that is better looking, more sophisticated and more practical, she really can't like the current old-fashioned furniture.
Especially there was a mirror embedded in the wardrobe, which made her feel a little scared when looking at it at night.
She wanted to make a sliding door, which was convenient but a bit troublesome, as there seemed to be no such thing as pulleys in that era.
But there is always a way, right?
"Can't I do it myself without buying it? There are so many rooms, I don't know when I'll be done." He Anze thought it was not feasible.
"But the ones I bought don't look good." Mei Xue felt very disgusted.
"You really want to do it yourself?" He Anze was surprised. "It will be next year when you finish it." There are at least eleven or twelve houses over there. After doing all this...
Hearing this, Mei Xue became even angrier at Mr. Zhang. Who knew that he would build the yard over there so big? The old men also talked about having four yards.
I'll go.
"What should we do then?" Mei Xue really wanted to renovate the old house as soon as possible, whether for herself or for Grandma Mu and the others.
"What furniture are you not satisfied with?" He Anze felt that some things were not as good as those bought.
