Bai Xiaoyue said earnestly:
"Chang Le, we can't make decisions for Ruyi; we must first respect her own thoughts."
She and Changxing finally made it to the big city, and now they want her to come back, but only if she's willing.
Chang Le nodded: "Mom, I know. If she wants to stay in Beijing, I will find her a better way out."
Bai Xiaoyue first discussed it with Yan Ci, and Yan Ci agreed before she went to talk to Ruyi and her husband.
After she finished explaining her thoughts, Ruyi immediately agreed.
Ye Changxing said, "Auntie, you are truly our savior. I am really facing a problem now."
Bai Xiaoyue asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Changxing: "Grandpa and Grandma are getting old and they are very reluctant to part with my Zekun."
My dad said that my grandparents' health has not been very good in the past two years.
I'm in a dilemma. If I stay home to take care of the elderly, we won't have any money.
Go out and earn money. My grandparents are so old, and my parents are over fifty.
Auntie, if you take over the factory, Ruyi and I will help you, which will solve my problem!
"Who would want to go out and earn money right here at home, while also taking care of the elderly?"
Bai Xiaoyue joked, "Then I'll try my best to keep the factory from going out of business, so you can keep making money."
She then asked, "Ruyi, do you share the same thoughts as Changxing?"
Ruyi smiled and nodded: "Auntie, it's very nice here, I'm willing to come back."
Bai Xiaoyue: "With Ruyi's help, the factory will definitely thrive."
Chang Le said, "Your skills are excellent; you're a master."
Ruyi blushed and said, "Auntie, it's not as good as Chang Le said, but I will try my best."
...
Before leaving, Bai Xiaoyue pulled Li Mingyue aside and whispered something to her for a while.
Based on her and Yan Ci's observations, they concluded that Xiao Bai didn't have anyone in her heart yet.
Being in a good position gives An'an a significant advantage.
Before leaving, Yan Ci only said one sentence to his wife: "I will come to pick you up next time I return to the capital."
After the festivities ended, Bai Xiaoyue was left alone at home.
She roused herself and called a meeting with Wen Tong, Bai Wenyi, and Ye Changxing.
The key is product positioning; good quality, exquisite design, and fine workmanship are essential to fetching a good price.
Wen Tong said, "Then all the female workers need training."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Wen Tong, please ask Aunt Wen to teach me. Of all the people I've met, Aunt Wen's skills are the most superb."
Ruyi can come and teach cutting. New workers will be hired, and the previous workers will also need to undergo assessments.
She then said to Bai Wenyi, "Second brother, I'm leaving the factory construction to you."
Bai Wenyi said, "We'll have to wait until the ice thaws, and work in the old factory building for now!"
Bai Xiaoyue nodded: "You decide what to do. We'll install a telephone so it'll be easier for us to contact each other."
Wen Tong immediately posted a recruitment notice at the entrance of the old factory.
Bai Xiaoyue would occasionally go and check on things. One day, she saw a girl pleading desperately, while Wen Tong looked helpless.
She found it strange and went over to take a look. It turned out that the little girl was He Panpan, Grandma He's granddaughter.
"Panpan, what's wrong?"
He Panpan stared at Bai Xiaoyue with her big, wet eyes:
"Auntie, I want to work in a factory. I only need half the wages."
Bai Xiaoyue said, "Panpan, you are only twelve years old. You should be studying at school."
He Panpan said, "Auntie, I learned embroidery from Grandma Wen, and Grandma Wen said I embroider very well."
Please let me work at the factory, okay?
Bai Xiaoyue asked again, "Panpan, what's wrong? Are you having some trouble?"
He Panpan cried and said, "My grandma is always sick, but she never says anything when she's sick."
I know she was reluctant to spend the money on medicine; she wanted to save the money for my education.
I don't want to study. I want my grandma to live. If I can earn money, she won't be like this anymore.
Bai Xiaoyue felt that talking here would affect Wen Tong's recruitment, so she took He Panpan home.
After arriving home, she poured He Panpan a glass of hot water:
"Panpan, it's not realistic for you to work and earn money at your age. Let's think of other ways, okay?"
He Panpan said innocently, "Auntie, I only know how to embroider, I don't know anything else."
Bai Xiaoyue thought for a moment: "Panpan, how are your grades?"
He Panpan nodded: "The teacher said I'm a promising student, and I always get first place in the exams."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Then our factory will sponsor your studies. All your school expenses will be covered by the factory, so your grandma won't have to worry."
He Panpan asked uncertainly, "Is it okay?"
Bai Xiaoyue nodded:
"There are two conditions: first, your grades must be excellent; second, you must be a good son or daughter to your grandmother. Can you do that?"
He Panpan nodded like a chick pecking at rice:
“I can. You can also write down the money I spent, and I will work at the factory to pay off my debts later.”
Bai Xiaoyue patted her head:
"Then go back and tell your grandma that because of your excellent grades, you won't have to pay for your future education."
Tell Grandma not to be frugal, tell her to take good care of herself, so that when you grow up, you can give her a good life.
He Panpan asked, "Auntie, do you keep your word?"
Bai Xiaoyue extended her little finger:
"Let's pinky promise that I'll check your grades every year. You have to study hard!"
He Panpan's radiant smile was like a blooming flower.
Bai Xiaoyue specifically sought out Bai Wenyi to instruct him on He Panpan's affairs, asking him to keep a close eye on her.
The expenses for He Panpan's schooling and living expenses were covered by the factory's accounts, and Grandma He's family is worthy of respect.
All the formalities have been completed, and the workers are undergoing training in an orderly manner.
Yan Ci came back to pick up Bai Xiaoyue, and Yan Xiaosong's family also came back.
Chang Le went back and told Luo Xiaowei that Bai Xiaoyue had taken over the village's factory.
I'm looking for a fashion designer; could you please help me find one?
Luo Xiaowei volunteered, saying that Aunt Yan was old and wanted to go back.
Brother Yan is unreliable; if Yan Xiaosong wants to come back, she will come back too.
The couple had been separated for four years while attending university, and they never wanted to live apart again, so they took the opportunity to come back together.
Bai Xiaoyue frowned. Luo Xiaowei had given up her job as a designer at a clothing factory in Beijing and returned to a small factory in her village with an uncertain future.
This behavior is illogical! She worked so hard to get into university.
We need to talk to her and find out what really happened.
Bai Xiaoyue immediately went to find Luo Xiaowei:
"Xiaowei, I'm so glad you came back to help me."
But my small factory can't compare to state-owned enterprises, why is that?
Luo Xiao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, to be honest with you, I never wanted to work in the garment factory in the first place."
I spent more than half a year there designing clothes, but none of the department leaders liked them, and they didn't even look at them.
Each time, they would directly name who would design it. I drew a whole stack of drafts myself, all for my own reference.
My monthly salary of a few dozen yuan is less than what I earn from part-time work in Changle.
Although it's a state-owned enterprise with a guaranteed income regardless of drought or flood, I'm not happy working there.
I have two hands; I can find food anywhere.
Chang Le told me that you were looking for a designer, so I volunteered to help.
One reason is that I hope to apply what I've learned over the years.
Secondly, I have an affection for this small mountain village, and I am happy to be able to do my part for the villagers.
I also want to thank my sister-in-law for giving me this opportunity; I'll try my best not to embarrass you.
She finished speaking and burst into laughter, radiating confidence.
