Chapter 356. Content
Zhou Qing Bai took one day off. The next day, he opened the shop.
He felt disappointed when thinking of this misunderstanding, but what else could he do? Life had to move on.
But he also secretly decided to eat more good stuff in the future and strive to create a miracle in his wife's belly.
Ever since then, Lin Qing He noticed her Qing Bai paid great attention to his wellness.
He even sought an old traditional Chinese doctor to prescribe a few medicinal bundles, which were for nourishment.
So after Lin Qing He's aunt left for three days, she experienced the might of her Qing Bai's norishing diet.
Her heart was simply close to crying.
No do, no die. Since she did, she had to make up for it even she kneeled down.
When it was La Ba Festival, Zhou Qing Bai made a big pot of La Ba congee. The family gathered around to eat La Ba congee in the morning.
On this snowy day, the business really suffered a lot.
It was the same Lin Qing He's clothing store. Business was a little bleak.
So Lin Qing He asked Zhou Er Ni, Hu Zi, and Xu Sheng Mei: "Do you three want to go back? If you want to go back, I will give you a holiday starting on the 20th. Come back next year after the Lantern Festival."
"I won't go back." Zhou Er Ni shook her head.
"I don't want to either. I have to attend classes." Hu Zi also said.
He and Zhou Er Ni still got classes. Although the evening school will be closed on the 15th, Hu Zi still didn't want to go back. He wanted to stay and see what New Year was like in the capital.
"But...but I want to go back." Xu Sheng Mei was taken aback and hesitated.
"You want to go back? We don't have time to accompany you. Do you know how to travel back by yourself?" Hu Zi looked at her.
"If Sheng Mei wants to go back, Huzi, go with her." Lin Qing He waved her hand.
Hu Zi sighed, "I really don't want to go back."
"You're not going back, so you're going to let Sheng Mei go back alone?" Lin Qing He scolded him: "Don't you know to have a tender heart for the fair sex? How will you get a wife in the future?"
"I'm still a child and you talk about this with me, Aunt." Hu Zi grinned.
"Still a child. Would you believe that your mother will start finding a match for you this New Year if you hadn't come here? If it goes well, maybe this time next year, you will be a married man." Lin Qing He stated.
Hu Zi believed it because when he was sixteen, his mother had already started talking about it.
But he didn't expect that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. When he came to the capital, it would naturally go down the drain.
"Alright. I will go back this year, but let me say it first. If I go back this year, I won't go back next year. I don't know what New Year is like in the capital." Hu Zi said.
This statement was similar to what Zhou Kai said before.
"Then properly bring Sheng Mei back and there is no problem." Lin Qing He responded.
In fact, it wasn't too difficult. After all, even a little girl like Zhou Liu Ni can find her way by herself, let alone those who had been here for almost a year.
Because she decided to give Hu Zi and Xu Sheng Mei a holiday, Lin Qing He went to notify the young boss, Wang Yuan. After the current last batch gets completed, the rest didn't need to be made.
At the same time, her small workshop was also going to get a holiday.
Paid vacations weren't popular nowadays. She planned to let them work until the fifteenth day of December and then give everyone a vacation.
They were going to be off until the fifteenth of January.
No more, no less. Exactly one-month holiday.
When the Lantern Festival is over, they will continue to work at the small workshop.
Lin Qing He came over to the small workshop to announce this today.
"Have a holiday so soon?" Old Madam Xu was a little bit reluctant. If they get a holiday, then there will be no salary and nothing to do for a month.
How much better it was to continue making clothes over here?
There was a coal-burning stove in the small workshop, so it was warm. The working environment was so wonderful that they were a little bit reluctant to go back.
"It's just a holiday. It's the same to continue next year," Lin Qing He said.
That was how the matter was settled.
Once it was the fifteenth day of December, it was the last day before the holiday start. Lin Qing He's clothing store welcomed its New Year promotion.
On this cold weather, a large notice was hung up. 20% off sale! Large stock clearance!
From 15th to 18th December. Business was blazing for three consecutive days.
Zhou Er Ni and Xu Sheng Mei's shop was basically cleared out.
Xu Sheng Mei went directly to her grandparent's place and be lazy. Zhou Er Ni came over to Hu Zi and Ma Cheng Min's side to help out.
Because Lin Qing He had ordered a batch of goods with Wang Yuan later on, there were still some left here.
When the last few dozens or so items were left in stock, Lin Qing He asked Zhou Xiao Mei if she wanted them when they were at the bathhouse.
"I want. These days, I've been bored to death." Zhou Xiao Mei said unreservedly.
Su Da Lin can still handle the business at the bun shop. After all, it was very cold. The business was relatively bleak. He can completely manage by himself.
So these few dozens were given to Zhou Xiao Mei.
The workers under Lin Qing He had completely gone on holiday.
Zhou Xiao Mei got the capability. She sold all her clothes in two days. She was overjoyed as she made a small sum before the New Year.
When she brought the money to her fourth sister-in-law, she said: "Next spring, I will still get clothes from Fourth Sister-in-law to sell on the street."
"As long as you can handle it." Lin Qing He accepted the money without objection.
"With Father and Mother here, how can not be free." Zhou Xiao Mei grinned.
She lived with her parent. The two older ones have gone to school. Father Zhou will pick them up every day. As for the two younger ones, either Mother Zhou mind them, or she will. If not, they will go to the bun shop and be with Su Da Lin. No trouble at all.
It can be said that having Father Zhou and Mother Zhou, Su Da Lin and Zhou Xia Mei had it much easier.
Otherwise, Zhou Xiao Mei can't do anything. The kids were still young. She can't free her hands to do anything.
"Mother always said she felt embarrassed. She came over here and haven't been able to help Fourth Brother and Fourth Sister-in-law." Zhou Xiao Mei said.
Lin Qing He mentally said she was thankful that her mother-in-law didn't to make trouble. She really didn't expect any help.
On the surface, she said: "No need. Da Wa and his brothers are already this big. When they were younger, they often made their grandmother worry about them. Also, Qing Bai and I brought them here to enjoy life. No need to worry. "
As for the old couple being willing to help with their youngest son-in-law and youngest daughter, there was nothing to criticize. It was human nature.
Lin Qing He's words reached Mother Zhou's ears. Mother Zhou was very relieved.
Zhou Xiao Mei envied: "If I can have a daughter-in-law like my fourth sister-in-law in the future, then I will be blessed."
"How old is Cheng Cheng? He will have to go to university in the future. What's more, look at your age. Already thinking about daughter-in-law. Not a sense of propriety." Mother Zhou amusedly told off but her face was completely painted with content.

ReplyDeleteThis Mother Zhou, if only she can be content always and not be so meddlesome in the future. Father Zhou is a hundred times better than her - knows how to appreciate life and doesn’t make trouble.
ReplyDeleteI’m sad to say that see a lot of myself in Xu Shang Mei 😔. I know we don’t like her, she’s an awful person, but I also understand working only when you have to work and then spending the rest of the time lazing about. I love Er ni and Hu zi, I love how diligent they are and I wish I could be more like them, constantly improving themselves but nope. I’m totally the type to go to my grandparents house to watch tv after a long day of work
