Chapter 36 An unexpected surprise!
Yan's mother coughed lightly and said with guilt and helplessness.
"Your aunt introduced me to her. Do you dare to disagree? I don't dare to mess with her anyway!"
The eldest aunt is the eldest sister in the family. She raised her younger brothers and sisters. She has the final say at home and even Dad Yan has to listen to her.
Thinking of her aunt's character, Yan Ruo shook her head repeatedly, indicating that she didn't dare.
Seeing this, Yan's mother spoke with more confidence.
"Your aunt said that the person is your high school classmate. You know each other! Just think of it as meeting an old classmate!"
"I heard that guy's family is well-off and he works in a county-level unit. Most importantly, his parents are easy to get along with!"
No matter how reluctant she was, the next day, Yan Ruo still changed into decent clothes and put on some light makeup before going out.
Blind dates here usually involve a simple meeting at home to get to know each other, then adding contact information and letting things flow freely.
After all, there is nothing fun in the town, and going to the county town is too time-consuming and laborious, so there is no need!
This time we agreed to meet at my aunt's house.
Because the two were classmates before, they knew each other's family situations very well.
After briefly introducing both parties, the aunt left, leaving Yan Ruo and her blind date Zhou Jiannan alone in the living room.
Zhou Jiannan is a very handsome man. Maybe because his job requires him to run outside frequently, he is a bit tanned.
If you are tall and big, you can look very stylish in a simple white shirt and black suit pants.
Although they said they were high school classmates, in fact, they didn’t talk much in high school. I just had an impression of this person.
After the two sat down, Zhou Jiannan spoke first.
"Old classmate, long time no see!"
"Long time no see!" Yan Ruo looked a little embarrassed.
In comparison, Zhou Jiannan was much more relaxed than her. She only heard him say:
"I didn't expect that after all these years, we would meet again in such an occasion! Don't take it too seriously. As long as you go back home, this kind of thing is inevitable!"
"You're lucky. You used to work in another city, so your family couldn't control you. I'm miserable. I work in the county town, so I'm used to this kind of thing!"
That’s true!
Since graduation, everything is fine when I am not at home, but once I go home, I will inevitably face the pressure of getting married and the introduction of partners from my aunts and uncles.
But Yan Ru was curious.
"You have such good conditions, and your family is pressing you, why have you waited until now?"
"Even though my work is close to home, I'm really too busy most of the time!" Zhou Jiannan looked helpless.
"Especially in recent years, the government has been focusing on supporting farmers, and this task has fallen squarely on our department. Look at how dark I am now, it's all from working in the fields."
Helping farmers? Yan Ruo immediately remembered that she had planned to sell agricultural products through an online platform.
When I told Zhou Jiannan about this idea, I didn't expect that he actually understood something about it.
"In the past two years, the county has helped us plant a lot of fruit trees and specialty crops. We've been begging for help to find a market for them."
“Some people have tried online sales, but the results haven’t been very good.”
After learning that Yan Ruo’s most popular video has hundreds of thousands of views and tens of thousands of fans, I instantly became interested.
Just like that, the two of them instantly switched from blind date mode to work mode.
We all felt more relaxed and lively when chatting.
Aunt Yan Ruo came back quietly in the middle of the conversation. Seeing that the two were chatting well, she immediately sent a message to Yan's mother.
【Don't worry! This blind date is going to work! 】
Especially in the next few days, Zhou Jiannan came to Yan Ru's house several times.
In the eyes of Yan's father, mother and aunt, they felt that their relationship was improving rapidly.
Yan's parents finally stopped urging Yan Ru to go out and find a job.
There were even rumors in the village that the reason Yan Ruo stayed at home for so many days regardless of the holidays was because he was preparing to come back and get engaged!
Of course, if you are completely unaware of this!
She tried to post a product link for dried bamboo shoots under her account, but to her surprise, someone actually placed an order, and quite a few people did.
She sold most of the dried bamboo shoots she had just dried some time ago!
Yan Ruo became very excited and quickly told Yan's mother the good news.
Yan's mother was a little unconvinced, "Did they really sell it? Then I'll go pick the bamboo shoots early tomorrow morning so we can dry more!"
In the next few days, not only Yan Ru's family, but all her relatives and neighbors would go to the mountains to pick bamboo shoots whenever they had time, and dry them into dried bamboo shoots when the weather was good.
For rural people who have few ways to make money, this kind of natural and naturally grown thing can be converted into money with a little effort.
It's a no-cost deal, so don't miss out.
While Yan Ruo was busy selling dried bamboo shoots to make money, Xu Shaoyu had already arrived in Nancheng.
That day, Yan Ruo was busy until noon before he finished processing the orders in the background, packed all the dried bamboo shoots to be sent out, and drove them to the express station in town.
Because the video she posted fully demonstrated the production process of dried bamboo shoots, and netizens who received the goods also gave it positive reviews.
There have been continuous orders during this period.
In order to ensure safety and quality, during this period they can only collect fresh bamboo shoots in the village, and then ask people to help process and dry them.
But even so, there is still a shortage of supply, and things like bamboo shoots are very seasonal.
In order to avoid not being able to ship the goods on time, Yan Ruo could only reluctantly limit the sales.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jiannan came to me that afternoon.
They said that after discussion, their unit unanimously decided to let the government collect bamboo shoots across the county, and then find familiar agricultural product processing factories to uniformly produce them into dried bamboo shoots.
She then sells it through online platforms.
This is just an attempt. If the results are good, we can cooperate with her to sell other local specialties.
Yan Ruo had originally just wanted to test the waters so she could help her parents sell fruit. Unexpectedly, she encountered such a pleasant surprise.
When Yan's mother found out, she was so happy.
"If this really works, then you won't have to go to North City to work anymore, right?"
Yan's father thought more about it.
"The only difference is that the income isn't as stable as working in a big company, and living in the village isn't as convenient as in a big city. You have to consider these things carefully beforehand."
"Don't worry, Dad! I will think it over carefully!" Then he looked at Yan's mother again.
"Mom, you know, I just bought a house in South City some time ago, in the same neighborhood as Chi Yu. Even if I have to go out to work in the future, I will only be in South City. It will be much more convenient to go home then!"
Yan's mother patted her hands, "That's good! It's better to be closer to home. It will be more convenient to go home!"
When passing the intersection, he saw a group of people standing there chatting. Yan Ruoke didn't want to be surrounded by these elders and asked questions, so he quickly said that he wanted to walk around again.
The sky in the countryside is particularly clear, and the blue hour after the sun sets is even more beautiful.
Looking at the silhouettes of houses and trees in the distance, Yan Ruo couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and use her camera to capture this beautiful scene.
Unfortunately, her photography skills were really average. After taking pictures for a long time, she couldn't capture even half of the beautiful scenery she saw.
Suddenly, a force of moderate strength hit my leg. I looked down and saw that it was a little kid about one or two years old.
Just as he was about to squat down to entertain the child, the child's mother who was following behind him spoke first.
