After Song Mei was driven away, the banquet was still going on and was not interrupted by the arrival of certain people.

Yuanyuan was still holding Mengmeng's hand, which surprised Mengmeng and Jiangcheng.

What she said just now can be regarded as her acceptance of Meng Meng from the bottom of her heart!

"Yuanyuan, are you scared? Don't be afraid, I'm here and won't let anyone bully you!"

Mengmeng squatted down and touched Yuanyuan's face.

"Mom, I'm hungry!"

Yuanyuan suddenly called Mengmeng "Mom", leaving both her and Jiang Cheng speechless.

Happiness came so suddenly that Mengmeng's eyes turned red before she could even react.

Qin Man and Jiang Lian dusted off the dust on their bodies and walked back. They just happened to hear Yuanyuan say "Mom". The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and smiled with relief.

Jiang's father, mother, and Jiang Cong were also happy for them.

Jiang Cheng also squatted down and looked at his daughter.

"Yuanyuan, were you calling me just now?" Mengmeng was not sure and asked again.

Yuanyuan nodded:

"From now on, you will be my real mother!" Yuanyuan took Mengmeng's hand and smiled sweetly.

Xiaoyi also came over and called "Mom" softly, and the family of four gathered together.

Perhaps only from this moment on, the eldest brother's family of four were truly integrated together.

Because there were many things to do after the New Year, we decided not to stay in our hometown for long. On the fifth day of the New Year, our family set off for the city.

Jiang Lian had to come later because she had to take care of things at the primary school. After all, it was a temporary decision and she had to inform the school.

After I got out, I had to help my elder brother and sister-in-law get a loan, decorate a new storefront, and deal with trademark issues. Once these were settled, I had to design a lot of clothing styles for wholesale. The styles must not be too monotonous, and I had to find endorsements, do advertising, and promote the products to slowly build up popularity.

You also need to pay attention to the launch of high-rise residential communities and make sure to grab a better floor.

It won’t work if it’s too high, and it won’t work if it’s too low either. It’s just right on the middle floor.

The closer it got to the New Year, the more depressed Jiang Cong felt. He knew that it wouldn't be long before what was supposed to happen would finally happen!

As soon as Qin Man returned to the city, she was busy with all kinds of things. She took Meng Meng to borrow a loan of 3,000 yuan, then found someone to decorate the new storefront, purchase goods, and then recruit employees for training in a store. Once the store opened, she would be able to start operating it immediately.

"Manman, I heard that the Ziyunyuan residential area will be put on sale on March 26th. We must prepare in advance so that we can grab the property when the time comes. There are many people waiting to grab the property in the city. If we go too late, there may not be any available!"

Wan Qian had someone keeping an eye on it a long time ago. This time, the high-rise residential community in Ziyunyuan has a total of four buildings. The city is so big that many bosses are waiting for the sale. If you go too late, you might not be able to grab a good floor.

"When the time comes, I'll have the cash ready. I'll make up for the difference between you and me. You don't have to rush to pay me back. Everything I tell you is true. I'm not lying to you!"

Wan Qian nudged Qin Man's shoulder with her shoulder and winked at her playfully.

Qin Man hugged her arms and acted coquettishly with her.

"Qianqian, you are so kind. How can I repay you?"

Wan Qian raised her eyebrows when she heard this, lifted her chin with her finger, and said with a smile:

"It's easy, baby. Just give your daughter to me as my daughter-in-law!"

"Go to hell, my daughter is only a little girl, do you believe that if my husband finds out, your little fat ass will be in danger!"

Qin Man gave her a scolding look, but Wan Qian was thick-skinned, shrugged, and continued:

"Oh, it's only natural for a father-in-law to teach his son-in-law a lesson. It's okay, just beat him as much as you want. The more you beat him, the deeper the relationship will be!"

"Wan Qian, you shameless bastard, believe it or not, I will kill you right now!"

Qin Man rolled up her sleeves and was about to catch her, but Wan Qian quickly ran away.

"I'm wrong, I'm really wrong!"

The two best friends were fighting and quarreling like two children. In the end, Wan Qian was caught by Qin Man and was taken advantage of!

(Ahem… Off topic: Have you ever eaten tofu from your best friend? (≧▽≦))

In mid-March, the new Malatang restaurant opened. On March 26, the Qin Man couple and the Wan Qian couple, with enough cash and various documents, successfully bought their first property in their lives.

When a new building is on sale, you can smash the golden eggs. Qin Man's koi attribute exploded and she smashed the first prize, a 2,000 yuan voucher. She saved 2,000 yuan and only spent 50,000 yuan!

Inside the airport, a man and a woman came out with their luggage, and Versace appeared in the city's airport with a woman.

"Brother Sizhe, do you think we can find Manman?" the woman asked in a low voice, as if she was afraid that if her voice was a little louder, it would scare the air to death.

"Of course I can. The owner of the photo studio said that Manman had her photo taken there at this time last year, so she must not have left the city. I will definitely find her even if I have to turn the city upside down!"

Versace has made up his mind to find Qin Man this year no matter what.

Years ago, his grandmother passed away due to illness, and he had been busy with mourning at home. At the beginning of this year, as soon as all the things were done, he came to the city immediately.

He told Qin's parents directly about the news about Qin Man. After hearing it, the two elders cried with joy and wanted to pack up and go to the city to look for her. However, Qin's father had a serious heart disease and could not travel so far. He could only comfort them temporarily and said that he would definitely find Qin Man and bring her back safely.

However, Qin Ruo insisted on coming along, saying that he was coming to look for Manman on behalf of Qin's parents.

Qin Ruo is the adopted daughter of the Qin family. She grew up with Qin Man since childhood. They are not like real sisters, but they are better than real sisters. She has been eager to find her all these years when Manman disappeared. When she heard the news about Qin Man, she was extremely excited and insisted to go along.

"Then Brother Sizhe, how are you going to look for her? The owner of the photo studio hasn't called you back. Maybe Manman is no longer in the city!" Qin Ruo looked at Fansizhe's expression.

"No, my intuition tells me that she is getting closer and closer to me. Let's find a hotel to stay in first, then go to the photo studio and ask the owner.

If it really doesn't work, I will directly post a missing person notice on the city TV station. Anyway, we have Manman's photo now. People's lives are getting better and better now, and many families have television. As long as she has lived in this city, someone must have seen her. She is so beautiful that she must have left a deep impression on people!"

Versace had an inexplicable confidence that he would find Qin Man.

Hearing this, Qin Ruo silently clenched her hands, bit her lower lip tightly, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Versace found a hotel close to the photo studio. This hotel was the one where Qin Man and Jiang Cong had stayed before. He booked two rooms, one for him and one for Qin Ruo.
