BTTS 376




 Chapter 376. Relationship sour


Wang Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled. Lin Qing He didn't notice the strangeness of her niece. She took out the design sketch. A total of five.

A large bulk of goods were ordered and then the contract was drawn out.

"Teacher Lin is a big client of our factory." Wang Yuan grinned after signing the contract.

"Don't count as a big client! You're preparing to expand abroad." Lin Qing He responded politely.

Her order volume here wasn't small at all.

There were other styles of clothes, but her small workshop made them. The efficiency of the two-shift system wasn't low.

"I couldn't tell that Teacher Lin's niece would be this so old." Wang Yuan looked at Zhou Er Ni and remarked.

"Not small anymore." Lin Qing He nodded.

"In the future, let her come here more. I need such talents in this place." Wang Yuan said.

This businessman can talk. He didn't know her niece's academic qualifications and abilities and can say the word 'talent' without a burden.

Still, Lin Qing He felt that this was a good opportunity, and said, "I'm afraid to disturb Boss Wang."

"What's there to disturb? Come here to get the goods and I'll send someone to deliver them there. No big deal." Wang Yuan replied.

Lin Qing He smiled and said, "Okay, then I will hand it over to my niece."

"I don't know her name yet." Wang Yuan said.

"Zhou Hong Ying." Zhou Er Ni answered for herself.

This was the name she chose for herself. Er Ni was fine in the countryside. Now she was out in the world, she naturally needed to use a more formal name.

Just like Da Wa and his brothers.

"Okay. Just talk to the guard when you come over." Wang Yuan looked at her and told her.

Zhou Er Ni nodded.

At this time, there was no ritual of inviting out to dinner. That action was created by some people in later generations. After finishing the work, Lin Qing He departed with Zhou Er Ni.

"Boss Wang is a good person. I have seen his garment factory's system. It is also excellent. He is a very capable young man. Coming here and interact more will do you good." After leaving the garment factory, Lin Qing He told Zhou Er Ni.

Zhou Er Ni understood that she needs to broaden her horizon. Handling more things was to exercise herself. She nodded and said: "I will do my best."

"Boss Wang is indeed young and promising. However, his family background is too high." Lin Qing He continued again.

Zhou Er Ni didn't get it, but she still nodded in response. Lin Qing He understood that when she saw this. She still hadn't fully mature in that area, so she didn't say anything.

What she meant was that Wang Yuan was indeed a very good person, but his family background was too high. Such a family was so complicated that ordinary girls couldn't handle it.

So she let Zhou Er Ni come over here to watch and learn. Not for her to marry into a higher social class. But seeing that she didn't have these thoughts, she didn't continue to talk about it.

She was very optimistic about this niece as she was self-motivated and got perseverance. As long as she didn't make detours, she won't do badly in this life.

Even though she was so big, she will still give guidance when needed.

Social class matching was the most suitable marriage, regardless of the era.

After getting back, she let Zhou Er Ni go back to watch the shop. When Xu Sheng Mei saw her return, she asked, "Sister Er Ni, where did Aunt bring you?"

"Went to the garment factory." Zhou Er Ni answered while folding clothes.

"Why?" Xu Sheng Mei couldn't help but say.

"What else can one do? Order clothes," Zhou Er Ni replied.

"I haven't been to a garment factory yet. Aunt favors you more." Xu Sheng Mei said.

Zhou Er Ni glanced at her and stated: "Fourth Aunt treat us all the same. Don't think so much."

Xu Sheng Mei disagreed.

What same? Her treatment couldn't compare to Zhou Er Ni and Hu Zi. Both of them were now helping to manage the accounts.

From beginning to end, she was never asked to manage.

"By the way, I went to my grandma's place the day before yesterday. Granny Zhu from the house next to my grandma has a granddaughter named Zhu Zhen Zhen. I wonder if she likes Zhou Kai?" Xu Sheng Mei mentioned.

"You can't talk nonsense like this. Da Wa is innocent!" At once, Zhou Er Ni's face firmed up.

Xu Sheng Mei said, "How am I talking nonsense? She pulled me aside to inquire." 
She looked at Zhou Er Ni again and said, "I didn't say anything though. Actually, I didn't know what to say. I have never seen her like this ."

Zhou Er Ni didn't know that old Madam Zhu wanted to discuss marriage. Mother Zhou didn't tell anyone except Lin Qing He. After all, dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction. They can't ruin the reputation of the girl.

So Zhou Er Ni also warned: "Just stay away from her."

Xu Sheng Mei knew from her reaction that she didn't know, so she didn't say anything. But when she came over to her grandma's side, she mentioned it. She wanted to inquire a bit.

A grown girl wouldn't ask her about Zhou Kai for nothing.

There must be something going on.

Mother Zhou was shocked when she heard it. Her face turned black: "She still sought you out for this?"

This granddaughter of the old Zhu family was this too bold. She even asked her granddaughter about her grandson. Can she not understand human words?

Xu Sheng Mei can judge the situation and immediately said: "Yes. She asked me, but I didn't say anything."

Mother Zhou was still displeased and uttered, "Don't worry about her in the future!"

Xu Sheng Mei nodded obediently and then asked, "Grandma, what's the matter? She is a grown girl and actually asked me about Eldest Cousin. And she appeared aggrieved. I was close to misunderstanding."

Mother Zhou couldn't hold back when she heard this: "What aggrieved? What misunderstanding? She had nothing to do with Da Wa. Her gran wants to match her to Da Wa, but neither I nor your aunt approves! "

Only then, it dawned on Xu Sheng Mei. So it was like this. She was wondering why Zhu Zhen Zhen would ask her about this.

"If you see her in the future, don't talk with her." Mother Zhou stated.

Hearing from granddaughter that Zhu Zhen Zhen made inquiries with her, Mother Zhou had enough of Zhu Zhen Zhen. Was there such a girl?

She ran over to ask her and asked her granddaughter. Her side left her face and didn't say anything, while she went around telling it!

Because of this, Mother Zhou ignored old Madam Zhu when they saw each other.

"Do you still have cucumbers and tomatoes at home?" Old Madam Zhu didn't realize Mother Zhou's attitude. She wanted to come over to pick cucumbers and tomatoes early that morning.

"There's none." Mother Zhou glanced at her and simply said.

Old Madam Zhu was taken aback, and uttered, "I saw you planted a lot." 
How could there be none? She had planted a lot in her backyard!

"I will send some to my fourth daughter-in-law later. In the future, I will send it over there." Mother Zhou answered neither warmly nor coldly.

Old Madam Zhu sensed it and turned around and left.

When she got back, she complained to old Madam Zhu: "Isn't it just some cucumber and tomato? not something rare. Do she really think I desire those things!"

Old Madam Zhu tidied up the chess and headed out to call Father Zhou and old Mister Hu to go to the park to play chess.

    3. Omg Xu Sheng Mei! You can barely read and you rejected any type of schooling anyone has tried to give you in favor of watching tv! And you still think they should hand over the accounts for you to manage?! And the reason they don’t is “favoritism”?! Are you brain dead?! What you get out of life is what you put into it! And lady, the only thing I’ve seen you do is take nips out of the hand that’s feeding you

    7. Сюй Шэн Мэй. Как ты собираешься управлять счетами, если даже читать до сих пор не научилась. Хотя китайский язык очень сложный, но всё равно. А с математикой у тебя как?

    8. Lol. She want to manage account when she knows small numbers to none of the symbols and letters. What? Does she expect the four branch would happily let her empty out their house and became beggars so that she can be swindled over and over while they let her "manage" their shops' account?

      I know, I know. After being swindled a few times, some most naive/stupid people would learn something from the experience to avoid it. But, the swindlers would also evolve their tricks and once you're swindled, they'd see some "marks" on you as the "easy target" (or so I heard). On top of that, is she someone who's willing to learn? NO! She's someone who like to making no progress then blame the other for her state of not having improvement.
