After the adults, especially Ning Shaobai, left, Xia Mian and his friends all breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun Yuexin said, "I don't know why, but every time Dr. Ning is around, I don't dare to speak."
Li Lizhen said infatuatedly, "But no matter how many times I see him, Dr. Ning is so handsome."
Xia Mian was proud of it. "Of course I have to. I've never seen anyone more handsome than him."
Zhao Cheng looked at Xia Mian's earrings and said, "Did Dr. Ning really give you this injection? I can only imagine him holding a scalpel, disemboweling someone with an expressionless face."
Han Haoyan nodded in agreement. "Doctors have a terrible occupational hazard. When he looks at me, I always feel like he's looking for something to cut into me."
Girls have different concerns. Sun Yuexin looked closely at Xia Mian's earrings and asked, "Is it really not painful at all?"
She touched her earlobe and said, "When I got my ears pierced in junior high school, they were red and swollen for many days."
Xia Mian's nose was almost curled up with pride. "It didn't hurt at all. Doctor Ning is amazing, haha."
Sun Yuexin said, "If I had known earlier, I would have put it on later."
Zhao Cheng asked, "Are you sure you dare let Doctor Ning put it on you?"
Sun Yuexin immediately changed her tune and said, "It's good to wear it earlier. I've already forgotten how it felt."
A few people finished the birthday banquet with laughter, shared the birthday cake together and then dispersed.
After seeing off the friends, Xia Mian hugged Xiao Feng and sat on the sofa with them to open their gifts.
The child gave Xia Mian another painting. Although it was still immature, it was a lot better than last year.
Xia Mian hugged him and asked him to hang the painting side by side with last year's.
"When this wall is fully decorated, our Xiao Feng will become a great painter." Xia Mian said with a smile, "You must paint my aunt the most beautifully!"
Xiao Feng nodded solemnly, "Auntie is the most beautiful!"
"Oh..." Xia Mian kissed his cheek hard, "Our Xiao Feng is so discerning."
Xiao Feng put his arms around her neck and giggled.
Xia Wenyue came in and handed her a passbook. "This is your dividend. Now that you're eighteen, you should take care of your money from now on."
In the second month after the Xinsheng Food Factory opened, Xia Wenyue hired a professional lawyer to formally sign a contract with Xia Mian.
Xia Mian mainly provided the recipe for Chuan Chuan Xiang and part of the initial capital investment in the food factory. Xia Wenyue was responsible for the remaining investment and overall operation. After calculation, Xia Mian could get about 30% of the profit dividend.
Xia Mian opened the passbook and took a look, then said excitedly, "So much every month!"
Xia Wenyue smiled and said, "I'll give it to you for this month so you can enjoy it. We haven't paid off the loan yet."
"But according to this trend, we can pay it off by the end of this year, right?" Xia Mian said.
"Well," Xia Wenyue said, "but after paying off the loan, I want to add two more production lines."
"I saw some vacant land around the factory and I'd like to buy one. I'm sure it will be useful in the future."
Xia Mian thought about the location of the food factory. Although it seemed remote now, when Yan City began to develop rapidly after 2000, the land there would definitely appreciate quickly, and there was a high possibility that it would be demolished.
"Buy, buy, buy." Xia Mian skillfully used Ning Shaobai. "I heard from Doctor Ning that housing prices and land are the cheapest right now. I'm afraid they will skyrocket in a few years."
"Second Aunt, if you come across anyone selling a house in the nearby village, please tell me. I can't afford to buy land, so I plan to stock up on some houses."
"Okay," Xia Wenyue didn't ask any more questions after hearing that it was Ning Shaobai who said that. Although Xia Mian was naughty sometimes, he obviously knew what he was doing.
There is nothing wrong with buying property.
After Xia Wenyue left, Xiao Feng leaned on his arm to look at the passbook in Xia Mian's hand.
Xia Mian held him in her arms and looked at him together, "Come and count, this is how much money it is in a month."
The child could recognize words now. He stretched out his little finger and counted tens, hundreds, and thousands for a while, then sat in Xia Mian's arms and rocked happily.
"You look so happy," Xia Mian stroked his ahoge and laughed, "Do you know how much this is?"
In fact, when it comes to money, Xiao Feng is just like all other children. He has some idea of pocket money of a few dollars or tens of dollars. For him, tens of thousands or tens of thousands of dollars are just a lot, and he feels like he can buy anything.
Sure enough, Xiao Feng looked up at Xia Mian and said, "Buy a house and demolish it!"
Xia Mian smiled and said, "Well, this is possible."
She had wanted to buy it for a long time, but she was unfamiliar with the place and she didn't have time because she was in school.
Fortunately, the real estate market has been sluggish in recent years, so Xia Mian is not in a hurry and plans to slowly inquire about it during the summer and winter vacations in the next two years.
but……
“This money is not enough to buy a house.”
Xiao Feng tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Selling stamps?"
Xia Mian touched his head and said, "The value of stamps may not be slower than the price of housing. Besides, the stamps belong to Xiaofeng. We can consider their future after Xiaofeng's eighteenth birthday."
"What should we do then?" Xiao Feng asked.
She shook the passbook and said with a smile, "Although this isn't enough, have you forgotten we have other money?"
Xiao Feng remembered, "Uncle Ning!"
"Yes, we gave the money to Uncle Ning to help us manage it." Xia Mian said this, and stood up excitedly and said, "Let's go and ask."
After transferring the money to Ning Shaobai, she never asked about it. "I don't know how much it is now."
Knowing your family's financial situation will help you have a better idea when buying a house.
However, as soon as the two of them walked out the door, Xiao Feng was seduced away by Chenchen.
It turned out that Zhou Xuewen had bought Chenchen a remote-controlled airplane, and Chenchen came to find Xiaofeng and Huizhu. Xiaofeng immediately followed Chenchen.
So Xia Mian went to Ning Shaobai's house alone.
When she entered the yard, she saw Ning Shaobai sitting on the beauty's seat in the corridor, reading a thick tome in his hand.
The summer breeze gently blew across his short hair, and the warm sunset outlined his handsome features, making him look like a picturesque beauty.
Xia Mian blew a short whistle, but Ning Shaobai ignored her.
Xia Mian smiled and moved over to sit down. Ning Shaobai didn't even raise his head. He just stretched out a finger to press against her shoulder and slowly pushed her away, "Stay away."
Xia Mian took a closer look and found that he seemed serious, so she behaved herself and didn't make a fuss. She looked around and simply got up and ran to the main room to get a fan to fan him.
He smiled and said, "Are you feeling cooler now, Doctor Ning?"
Ning Shaobai enjoyed the thoughtful service, but remained indifferent.
Xia Mian thought for a moment, then approached him mysteriously and said, "Doctor Ning, have you noticed that Sister Ning and Mr. Zhou seem a little different?"
"At noon, I saw them holding hands."
"Just now, Chenchen was sent out to play with Huizhu and Xiaofeng."
You should know that when Zhou Xuewen comes, Chenchen basically stays with his father.
Ning Shaobai finally took his eyes off the book and looked at Xia Mian who was coming over.
Xia Mian was frightened by his gaze and moved away fearfully, saying, "What's wrong? What do you mean by that look?"
"Are you dissatisfied with Mr. Zhou?" Xia Mian asked doubtfully, "There's no need to be so mean to me. It's not me who made them together."
Ning Shaobai rolled his eyes. If it’s not you, then could it be me?
Oh, it's me, but you are the culprit.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Xia Mian resorted to her ultimate move. She hissed and covered her ears with her hands, saying, "Doctor Ning, my earlobe seems to hurt a little. Is it inflamed?"
Ning Shaobai put down the book and sighed helplessly, and Xia Mian immediately came over with a smile.
Ning Shaobai looked at the small, radiant earlobe in front of him. There was a pair of snowflake earrings that he had personally selected. They were very beautiful...
He lowered his eyes, then moved to the side, away from someone, and suddenly asked, "How long is your summer vacation?"
Xia Mian said, "One and a half months, what's wrong?"
"Nothing," Ning Shaobai said expressionlessly, "I just felt it was too long. I'm almost in my third year of high school, so a week's vacation is more than enough."
So as to avoid torturing him here.
Xia Mian's eyes widened, "Doctor Ning, are you a devil?"
Dr. Ning thought, you are the devil sent by God to torture me.
The author has something to say: Dr. Ning: People who can’t fall in love but want to have an affair are all devils.
