Chapter 35
"...Sister-in-law, my brother stayed up all night last night and sat at the head of the bed, staring at me and Lao Fang. It was so scary. You have to take care of him. We can't tolerate this habit!" Ren Yeliang complained to Wen Yue as soon as he woke up the next day, his face wrinkled and full of accusations.
Wen Yue blinked and turned to look at Zhou Yao.
Zhou Yao snored, expressionless: "One of them is snoring and the other is grinding his teeth."
Wen Yue saw that Zhou Yao's eyes were dark and blue, and shifted her gaze to Ren Yeliang: "He didn't sleep well, so it's normal for him to behave like this. It's good that he didn't beat you up."
Ren Yeliang pretended to cry twice: "I forgot that my sister-in-law and Brother Yao are one family. Family members will definitely speak for family members. My feelings are in vain."
Wen Yue said, "In that case, I won't give you any hard work money."
"In my heart, my sister-in-law will always be the best sister-in-law. No matter how many mistakes there are, they are all my and Lao Fang's fault! How could we make Brother Yao unable to sleep well? Damn it!" Ren Yeliang's face changed immediately and he began to reflect on himself.
Wen Yue was amused: "I discussed it with Nian Qiu last night and decided to give each of you 5,600 yuan as hard work fee. Thank you for your hard work during this period."
"Isn't 5,600 too much?" Ren Yeliang was really surprised and turned to look at Zhou Yao. He knew that his sister-in-law and Li Nianqiu would definitely make a lot of money, after all, he and Lao Fang were the ones selling the goods, but he never thought that he would get so much!
Zhou Yao frowned slightly: "No need to give so much, they are free anyway, just helping out."
Ren Yeliang nodded: "Yes, yes, five thousand six is too much." He didn't even dare to take it.
Wen Yue looked at Li Nianqiu.
Li Nianqiu received the signal and said: "You have helped a lot during this period of time. These are what you deserve, and future orders will also depend on you, so you can take this money with peace of mind. Yueyue and I have classes on weekdays, so we have little time to help. We have also discussed the future orders, and when the time comes, the five of us will each take 20% of the profits, and the material costs, labor costs, and rent fees will be shared equally..."
Wen Yue nodded vigorously beside him, "Yes, that's it."
This was a huge sum of money. Ren Yeliang and Fang Shitao were too afraid to accept it. They could only go to see Zhou Yao to see what he would say.
"Take it." Zhou Yao thought for two seconds and nodded to the two of them: "You don't have to give me my share, just give it to my wife."
Ren Yip-liang cheered: "Wow!"
Even Li Nianqiu cast a mocking look at him.
Wen Yue: “…” Pretend not to see it.
Dividing the money is a big project. Fortunately, Wen Yue and the other two were able to sort it out last night. Otherwise, we would have been busy until noon just counting and dividing the money. Ren Yeliang also had to go to the market to reply to the boss who placed the order. When he came back, he had to find female workers. Zhou Yao had to rent the yard next door.
Everyone has work to do.
Wen Yue and Li Nianqiu's job was to save the money. There was a bank at that time, but there was none in the county, only in the city. So the two of them went to the city and deposited the money.
Wen Yue had nearly 40,000 yuan in hand, leaving 5,000 yuan for reserve and depositing the rest in the bank.
At night, Li Nianqiu and her sister didn't need to go home, they could go directly to school. Wen Yue suggested to Li Nianqiu that she should see if there were any vacant rooms for rent in this alley. If she rented a room, she wouldn't have to go back to the village to face the disgusting faces of Old Lady Li and her group.
However, Li Nianqiu refused. She said: "If they knew that I had enough money to rent a house, they would make a fuss. I don't want to waste time with them. Anyway, there is only one year left, so I will just bear with it."
Wen Yue thought about it and realized that she had forgotten about it.
Zhou Yao rented the yard next door, and Ren Yeliang also found a suitable female worker. They started working very quickly on Tuesday. The most surprising thing was that two of them knew how to use sewing machines, so they moved the two machines that were placed in Grandma Fang's house over there.
The first order was delivered on Thursday. As expected, a boss who smelled the scent came and took on five orders in total. However, the time was tight and the goods had to be shipped within a month.
Wen Yue didn't need to worry about the follow-up matters, as Zhou Yao, Ren Yeliang and Fang Shitao managed it very well.
Zhou Yao said that she just needed to study hard and get into college.
Busy time always flies fast. A month passed in the blink of an eye, and it was time to divide the spoils. I received a total of six orders. After deducting labor costs, material costs and rent, I could earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan from each order. The total was 200,000 yuan!
In other words, everyone can get 40,000 yuan!
When Ren Yeliang heard about the huge amount of money, his knees almost went weak and he fell to his knees, his eyes wide open: "Oh my God, I am not dreaming, am I dreaming, Lao Fang, please give me a look, I want to see if I am dreaming..."
Fang Shitao punched Ren Yeliang on the shoulder without hesitation.
"Damn it, Lao Fang, do you want to beat me to death? You are so cruel!!" Ren Yeliang screamed.
Fang Shitao: "Didn't you ask me to beat you?"
Ren Yeliang: "You don't have to try so hard!!"
Fang Shitao scratched his head and laughed twice.
Ren Yeliang turned his gaze to Wen Yue and Zhou Yao again, and yelled: "Brother, sister-in-law, you two are my heaven, my earth, and my God of Wealth. From now on, I will do whatever you tell me to do. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west. If you tell me to move forward, I will never retreat!!"
He finally discovered that he could make money not only by following his brother, but also by following his sister-in-law!! In three months, he made 45,000 yuan! What kind of strength is this! Now, each of them is a 10,000 yuan household!
Oh my god, a 10,000 yuan household!
Zhou Yao glanced at him coldly: "Then I'll tell you to shut up."
Ren Yeliang quickly stopped talking, leaving behind a brilliant, somewhat silly smile.
"But now some people in the market have started to follow our trend and sell the same accessories. We have almost achieved the goal of this business." Li Nianqiu was also very calm. He was not overwhelmed by joy and sighed with regret.
She smiled warmly: "We have already earned a lot. We are so tired after working so long, it's a good time to take a break. We can deal with the rest later." She was very calm. Just follow the trend. Following the trend is the norm.
Even if people in the future have copyright awareness, there will still be a lot of piracy that cannot be eradicated, not to mention that at this moment, the worst that can happen is that she can just draw a few more clothes that are relatively new to this era...
Wen Yue thought about it.
Li Nianqiu also nodded in agreement: "Yueyue is right, from now on I can focus on my studies." With this money, she no longer has to worry about what will happen to her and her sister in the future, and their lives are guaranteed.
To celebrate their success, they went out to eat in the city on a weekend.
After eating and drinking enough, turn on the salted fish mode.
Wen Yue had something to do, such as doing homework and reading books, which was very interesting. Zhou Yao, Ren Yeliang and Fang Shitao were a little bored at home.
Wen Yue read extracurricular books to Zhou Yao for several nights in a row, and saw that the latter looked visibly bored.
"Zhou Yao." Wen Yue closed the book, turned his head and looked straight into Zhou Yao's dark eyes, his expression serious: "Take Yeliang, Lao Fang and the others to Shencheng to have a look."
Zhou Yao refused without even thinking: "No."
Wen Yue sighed softly: "I know you really want to go, so go if you want to, don't worry about me. I'm at home most of the time except for school, and I don't go out, so nothing will happen. Besides, I still have Grandma Fang at home, and Nian Qiu can help me if it doesn't work. Besides, didn't you promise Yeliang last time that you would take them to visit Shencheng?"
"You can't go back on your word, or you'll lose your credibility in their eyes."
Zhou Yao lowered his eyes, not caring: "No, then no."
Wen Yue frowned: "Think about it carefully. I'm going to sleep because I have classes tomorrow." She turned off the light and lay down, and fell asleep right away.
Zhou Yao couldn't sleep. He stared at the ceiling with his eyes closed, his mind in a mess.
Wen Yue's sleeping position has improved a lot during this period, and she no longer moves her hands and feet when she doesn't agree with him like before. Perhaps because she is used to resting her head on Zhou Yao's arm, after falling asleep, she will unconsciously lean over and naturally put her head on it to find a comfortable position.
It would be a lie to say that he didn't want to go to Shencheng. Zhou Yao had wanted to go to Shencheng for a long time. At first, he didn't want to leave his grandma behind, and now he didn't want to leave Wen Yue. He just wanted to be with Wen Yue every day, to see Wen Yue every day, and to feel at ease.
He was worried that Wen Yue would be bullied after he went to Shencheng, and he was also worried that someone would steal her home after he went to Shencheng. After all, up to now, Zhou Yao was actually not sure what Wen Yue thought of him, but he was sure that he liked Wen Yue.
Zhou Yao was a very courageous man. Before the reform and opening up, he dared to take Ren Yeliang and Fang Shitao to buy and sell things without any fear of being caught. He was thinking about going to Shencheng to make trouble before he even reached adulthood.
However, he is not so bold in relationships. They haven't even gotten their marriage certificate yet, and Wen Yue can walk away at any time. Zhou Yao doesn't feel safe at all.
He silently tilted his head to stare at the peaceful sleeping face of the person beside him, his dark eyes filled with complex and intense emotions, deep and unfathomable.
…
The next night, Wen Yue finished her evening self-study class.
Zhou Yao would come to pick her up every night, and today was no exception. He skillfully took the backpack from Wen Yue and held it in his hand. After two seconds of silence, he said, "The day after tomorrow, I will take them to Shencheng."
Wen Yue was stunned for a moment, her eyes curved: "Is it confirmed?"
Zhou Yao hummed softly.
Wen Yue: "It takes four or five days to get from our city to Shanghai by train. You should buy a sleeper berth instead of a hard seat. You don't need that little bit of money. Be nice to yourself. There should be food for sale on the train. I don't know if it's delicious. If not, just bring a few packs of instant noodles..."
She muttered to herself with her eyes closed, the dim light falling on her face, her eyes and brows looking particularly gentle.
"Don't worry too much about home. I will take good care of Grandma Fang and Lulu, so don't worry. I have deposited all the money I earned in the bank. Please bring your bank card with you in case you need it."
Zhou Yao lowered his eyes and looked at her straight, his strong presence made Wen Yue unable to ignore him. She raised her little face and looked over, "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that?"
Zhou Yao asked her in a low voice: "When I leave, will you miss me? Will you be reluctant to leave me?"
Wen Yue exclaimed, blinked, and frowned: "Are you not planning to come back?"
Zhou Yao: "Of course I will come back."
"That's it. If you ask me that, I would have thought you weren't coming back." Wen Yue turned away and pushed open the half-closed door. "We're home. I'll go take a shower first."
"By the way, remember to bring me a gift when you come back."
Wen Yue stood at the door, tilted her eyes towards Zhou Yao, revealing a small smile.
