Xue Ling smiled and said: "Wait for me. I calculated your salary the day before yesterday and wrapped up the red envelope. I wanted to go to you that night to give it to you, but unexpectedly I encountered something about the Liao family's sister-in-law, so it was delayed.
Already."
"It's okay, it's okay!" Liu Xiaoyu whispered: "You paid me my salary last time, and now I still have something left."
Xue Ling stopped and said: "It's your business to use it, and you have to pay back what's yours. Favors belong to favors, and money belongs to money. Don't talk about two different things at the same time."
She turned back to the room and took out two envelopes.
"One is your salary, and the other is your red envelope. I wish you continue to make a lot of money next year!"
Liu Xiaoyu pushed it and whispered: "I don't need my red envelope..."
"Everyone has it." Xue Ling explained: "Even the three old men who look after the construction site have it. Everyone works for our construction site, and as long as we can afford it, we will definitely give them the benefits they deserve."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Liu Xiaoyu was slightly excited, "I will definitely supervise them and work well for you and Boss Liao in the coming year!"
Xue Ling smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
Liu Xiaoyu said again: "Sister-in-law, I plan to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to recruit a few more brothers to come and help. I wonder if you still need help?"
"The more the better." Xue Ling said: "Progress is a little slow this winter, and there will be a lot of rain next spring, so I'm afraid it won't be able to go faster. As long as the people are reliable and not some random people, then you can call over to help."
"Okay!" Liu Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, I will definitely help them pass the test first."
The two chatted for a while, and then Liu Xiaoyu happily left with the red envelope and salary.
Liu Ying also came out to see him off. She wanted to stay with him to eat together, and also emphasized that Ahu would also come over for lunch, but Liu Xiaoyu still declined.
"My old mother is not feeling well, and the children are still young. I have to go back to help take care of her."
After hearing this, Xue Ling said: "Taking care of your family is the most important thing. I will treat you to dinner another day. Goodbye!"
Cheng Muhai was carrying a small net bag with several cabbage in it.
"Chang Bo came to the development zone to find me, gave me some home-grown cabbage, and asked if we would go home to celebrate the New Year this year. I told my in-laws that if they want to come here, they won't go back this year."
Liu Ying secretly glanced at his pocket, said nothing, and just carried the cabbage to the kitchen.
Xiao Ranran hugged her mother's neck and didn't let go for a long time.
Xue Ling laughed and patted his back.
"What? Miss your mother?"
Xiao Ranran was giggling. She didn't know how to explain or express her feelings, so she just hugged her mother's neck and looked very satisfied and happy.
Xue Ling felt warm in her heart and kissed him.
"Let's go, mom will feed you first."
Ahu smiled and went to the kitchen to help, and asked: "Sister-in-law, when did you arrive?"
"About an hour ago." Xue Ling explained: "We set off early in the morning and got here around ten o'clock. Liu Xiaoyu came over just now and sat and chatted for a while before leaving."
Ah Hu rolled his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Then did you go to school to find Ah Fang?"
"No." Xue Ling explained: "She should still be on the South Island now."
Ahu frowned and asked: "It's almost thirty, why hasn't she come back yet? Didn't she say she would come back at the end of the year?"
"Not necessarily." Xue Ling explained: "She called from South Island a few days ago and said that the weather there was very good and everyone had a great time. However, it was difficult to buy bus and boat tickets at the end of the year, and their leading teacher
I’ve already queued up to buy tickets. If I can buy it, I’ll come back. If I can’t, I’ll have to wait until after the Chinese New Year.”
Ahu nodded slowly, "Then... let her pay more attention to safety."
"Yes." Xue Ling said: "I called Shan Yue and his wife, and gave their home phone number to A Fang. If you encounter any difficulties there, just go to them. It's easier to get things done if you have acquaintances.
."
"That's right." Ahuchi asked, "It's just that Shanyue and the others... are all at home, right? Don't go out on business again!"
"No." Xue Ling explained: "Since Xiao Youyou was born, they decided not to run around doing business, and planned to set up a paper mill to stabilize. The factory has been built, and Shan Yue plans to go to Northeast China to buy machinery after the Chinese New Year."
"Oh... that's good." Ahu said, "If you have a family and a child, it will be good for the child if you can stabilize."
Cheng Muhai chuckled, "Are you envious? You can have one too! Go on a blind date quickly, find a good girl, and get married next year and have a baby the following year!"
Ahu said, "Godfather, please stop laughing at me!"
"What? Ahu's mother arranged for Ahu to go on a blind date again?" Xue Ling asked with a laugh.
Liu Ying smiled and replied: "Yes! She said she was introduced by an acquaintance and she is very beautiful!"
"I don't want it!" Ahu shook his head again and again, "I don't like the blind date thing the most! It feels like completing a mission!"
Cheng Muhai looked at his old wife and explained: "In our time, not to mention blind dates, all marriages were blind marriages. The parents made the decision, the matchmaker came to find the bride, and then the date was set for the engagement and marriage - it was all like this!"
Liu Ying nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "That's right, there's no such thing as a mutual respect... We only know what the other person looks like on the wedding day. Some people only have the chance to get to know each other when they marry someone from the same village. I have a guy who is close to my age.
My sister also married her husband without even meeting her. My wife and her brother-in-law are twins, and they look very similar. She kept admitting her mistakes for several months after getting married, and made a lot of jokes!"
"So you are much happier than people of that era!" Xue Ling couldn't help but squeezed Ahu and said, "Did you hear that? People marry blindly and blindly, but you can still see each other, how wonderful!"
Ahu suppressed a laugh and said: "I'm not at that point yet! If I still can't find a partner in two years, then I'll go on a blind date again!"
"No!" Cheng Muhai frowned and said, "I'll be almost thirty by then! I'm too old!"
Ahu patted his chest and said boldly: "What are you afraid of! Only older people know how to love their wives!"
Everyone laughed.
At this time, Cheng Tianyuan opened the door and walked in. Seeing everyone laughing, he couldn't help but smile too.
"What are you talking about? The laughter can be heard downstairs!"
Ahu didn't dare to say anything anymore and went to play with Xiao Ranran in his arms.
Xue Ling poured a glass of water for her husband and asked, "Is there anything going on in the store?"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "The goods are selling very fast. I just picked up a lot of goods the day before yesterday, and they have been sold out in the past two days. Fortunately, I ordered some bacon and melon seeds before, and the truck delivered them in the morning, and I just made it in time."
Ahu said: "The development zone can only do workers' business. Once the workers leave, the shops will have to close. It's better to be over there, close to the residential area, so the business will be more stable."
"It's okay." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "Business is better during holidays and festivals, but more stable at other times. But when it comes to the number of people, there are more people in the development zone."
Ahu asked curiously: "The development zone has closed down. Have you settled the accounts? How much can I share this year?"
"A little more than last year." Cheng Tianyuan replied: "I've almost finished the calculation. I went to the provincial capital with my wife in the past two days, so I haven't added the last digits yet. Forget it tonight, I'll share it with Amin.
Please, everyone have a good harvest."
Ahu made a lot of money this year. Not only did he have a small savings, but he also bought his favorite car.
Coupled with the income from "Café Café" in the development zone, this year can be considered a bumper year!
"Yo ho!" Ahu raised Xiao Ranran high and cheered: "Make money! Make money! Xiao Ranran, uncle will take you to play and have a big dinner!"
