Feng Subi shook her head. "What you said is too expensive."
"I didn't collect this thing, it's my own. My daughter and I have been fighting all day long because of this thing of mine, and they still can't figure it out, so I just sold it to save the money."
The old lady shook her head, "You shouldn't sell it. At this age, it's better for them to treat us better if they have something in their hands."
"I've been angry all day because of this."
"Just think about it. It's better to keep it." The old lady sympathized with the old man, and she really shouldn't sell it anymore.
"Well, it's up to you. I'll give you two yuan for each plate and bowl. I'll give you the candlestick and incense burner. I'll keep the sturdy ones that won't break."
"Okay, I want it."
After Han Yuanfang gave the money, "Grandma, wait for me here. I'll sell a basket, otherwise we won't be able to get it back."
I just saw a cage made from branches for sale.
Two and a half yuan each. It’s really not expensive and looks pretty good, so I bought two. They also gave me a small bamboo basket, which can hold steamed buns and other things.
The couple walked back and said, "Grandma, I don't think the candlesticks and incense burners are good either."
"It's an old thing. Keep it. There will be fewer and fewer such things in the future."
After returning home, he put it in the side room. Then the mother-in-law packed up and ate.
I bought so many things that I couldn't finish them all.
"It's a waste, everything looks good to me."
"It's okay, except for the boiled peanuts. Everything else is fine."
After eating, I took a shower, washed clothes, and sat in the yard chatting.
"What do you think about this trip?"
"Impressions? Quite a few. Grandma, I suddenly discovered that it is not unreasonable for rich people to become richer and richer.
The first thing is to have capital, and then to have the courage and experience.”
"That's the truth. But there are also many prodigal people."
"Yeah. I've seen it too. There are indeed some people who really can't do it. I feel like it's fate that just doesn't make him rich?"
"I also feel that way."
Han Yuanfang talked about Li Jiansen. "Grandma, I always think that he should stick to his old position and continue to work. But he may be too ambitious and won't give up."
"There are a lot of people like that. The more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes."
"Yes, but fortunately that person still listened to the advice. Who knows if he can do it again in the future."
"Personal destiny. How many days can you stay?"
"Tomorrow is the 25th, and I will go back the day after tomorrow. There are too many things going on in the garment factory."
"Okay." I'm satisfied if I can stay with him for two days.
"Grandma, it won't be too hot in the future. Why don't you come back with me? I don't want to live in the village, so I bought a house in the city." Han Yuanfang persuaded her again, saying that it would be too lonely for the elderly. Grandpa and grandma are okay.
She has company, and besides, she is younger than this old lady.
Feng Subi smiled and shook her head, "I'm getting older and I won't go there. Even if I die, I will die here."
"Actually, it's the same everywhere. As long as you're happy, isn't it fine?"
"Yes, you are right, but I can't do it. This home has carried my memories for decades."
Han Yuanfang stopped trying to persuade her. "Grandma, why don't I ask if there is a suitable honest person to come and take care of you?"
Feng Subi shook her head, "I can live alone, but I can't stand having people around me."
Han Yuanfang twitched the corner of her mouth, "There should still be someone to take care of you, and you have to serve your old age. Grandma, if you want to live a few more years, you have to accept this."
Feng Subi sighed. Why didn't she know? "Okay, you can find me a suitable one. It's best to be single. That way there will be no involvement."
"Yeah. Okay, let me take a look. I'll find one from my hometown for you. I have to go back and have a look."
"Okay, just look at the arrangements."
Han Yuanfang continued studying in the evening. School was about to start when she got home. She didn’t read much this summer. There were too many things going on outside, which definitely affected her study.
It was also good to eat millet porridge croquettes the next morning.
"Grandma, do you want to go there?"
"No. How comfortable would it be to stay at home if you don't go anywhere on such a hot day? You're just busy if you have something to do."
"It's nothing, why don't we go to the store and have a look?"
"That's okay, business is good."
"The location of the shop is good, there is a lot of traffic, and after a long time, everyone knows to look for it."
The two of us are still riding tricycles. When we go to the shop and take a look, it’s a virtuous circle, so that’s fine.
On the evening of the 27th, Han Yuanfang got on the train back. Fortunately, there was a seat. She probably didn't have to squeeze in with other people.
After getting off the train at around five o'clock, I went to the clothing factory. Looking at the buildings from a distance, I felt really proud that this was my own.
After entering the factory, I took a shower and then went to see Du Qiran.
"You're back? How's it going outside?"
"Stop talking. I think it's extremely hot this summer."
"There's still little rain. I'm picking up goods every day now. This year's cotton harvest will definitely be poor."
"Hey, I didn't think of this at all, it's still Uncle Du."
Du Qiran smiled and said, "Let's go and eat."
"I don't want to go so far to eat. But the workers are more tired than me, so they must complain more."
"You'll be fine once you get used to it."
The cafeteria is so spacious that it can accommodate a thousand people for meals without any problem.
Only then did Han Yuanfang realize the benefits of using this place as a canteen.
After breakfast, we started to move around the underwear factory. Orders are coming now, and the new workshop is still installing units.
"The underwear factory was really popular, but I was narrow-minded and planned to make it smaller at that time." Du Qiran was getting angry about this matter.
"It's okay. If it doesn't work, just separate the underwear and panties and build a workshop."
"talk about it later."
The entire morning was spent walking around several factories. After lunch, Han Yuanfang rode a bicycle to see the new house.
The courtyard is paved with stones, which is what Han Yuanfang likes the most.
The furniture in the room has also been arranged, and it looks spacious and clean.
Measure the size. I want to make a kang quilt when I go back, but I’m not used to sleeping on the kang mat, it’s too hard.
Just as she locked the door, she heard the doorman calling her.
"Girl, are you satisfied with the decoration of the house? I went over to take a look. It's really nice."
"I think it's pretty good too. Is your senior year of high school still in class?"
"Yeah. But today is a holiday and school starts on September 1st."
"so good?"
"They haven't been idle in the past two months. They are all exhausted."
"Hehe, it's quite scary to think about it."
"What's so scary? Only by enduring hardship can you become a great person." This girl is the target of competition among all schools, but she cannot be scared away.
"Yes, sir, you are right. I won't talk to you anymore and I'm leaving."
It was past four o'clock when Han Yuanfang arrived home. She went directly to her grandma's house.
"Yuanfang, are you back?"
"Yes. Where is my father?"
"It's time to remove the weeds."
"Don't get too tired."
"It's okay, I'm not tired. What do you want to eat? I'll cook right now."
"I don't want to eat the milk, it's too hot."
"Wait a minute, the watermelons in the yard are ripe. I'll pick one for you. If you don't eat, eat the watermelon."
