Chapter 226 Confessing to Family Members 1
Grandma Zhang looked at Zhang Yunyue's face and said distressedly, "Yueyue, have you lost weight? Didn't you eat well in the city?"
Zhang Yunyue couldn't help but smile: "Grandma, touch my face. I haven't missed three meals a day, and I've gained weight. How could I be thin? You just haven't seen me for a long time, hehe."
Zhu: "I think Yueyue has become more beautiful after staying in the capital for a few months. Her skin has become much whiter."
Zhang Yunyue smiled and said, "Second Aunt, you haven't seen me for a long time, so you think I have changed."
Grandma Zhang: "Yueyue, why didn't your brother and the others come back with you?"
"Grandma, my brother and his friends are in Wuyun County now. They should be back soon. It's been almost half a month since they left the city. They should be back soon."
"Grandpa, the workshop has expanded a lot now."
Grandpa Zhang smiled and said, "Yes, since you brought the orders from the grocery stores in Fucheng and Chengyang County, we have doubled the size of our workshop. We will be able to provide you with new orders when the time comes. We have also recruited many villagers from other villages to work in our workshop.
You know, it’s because people from other villages come to the workshop to work, and the walking time is too long, so it’s inconvenient for them to go home, so they rent houses in the village.
Now many families in the village have separated a section of their yard and rented it out to others. It’s not bad to rent it out for 70 or 80 cents a month, which is just enough for a family’s oil, salt, sauce and vinegar for a month.”
Zhang Yunyue didn't expect that this recruitment would also boost the rental and house sales in the village.
"That's pretty good."
"Yes, so now there are more than a hundred people in the workshop, and it is bustling every day. You are responsible for bringing back the orders. You don't have to worry about the workshop's output. We will prepare the goods for you in the workshop."
"Ah."
Mother Zhang thought of something: "Yueyue, you came back just in time. Xiaoxiao is going to get married in ten days. I was thinking that when your eldest brother and his family came back to pick up the goods, I would bring a letter to you in the capital to remind you to come back. I didn't expect you to come back just now."
"Mother, I know. Xiaoxiao told me when I came back last time."
Zhang's mother sighed, "In the blink of an eye, the little girl who was acting like a spoiled child in front of us is getting married. Time flies."
After hearing what her mother said, Zhang Yunyue wondered whether she should tell Mo Yan about her relationship with her, but she didn't know how to start.
After thinking for a while, I decided to forget about it for tonight and talk about it after breakfast tomorrow.
Seeing that Zhang Yunyue didn't say anything, Zhang's mother wondered if she was tired from sitting in the carriage for several days.
"Yueyue, you've been sitting in the carriage for three days. Why don't you go back to your room and take a nap? I just took out the bedding in your room a few days ago to dry it in the sun."
After hearing what Zhang's mother said, Zhang Yunyue suddenly felt a pain in her waist and back: "Mother, you said that, I suddenly feel sleepy, okay, then I'll go to sleep first."
"Okay, let's go. I'll put a quilt cover on you and put the sheets on. You weren't at home, so I didn't put them on. I just took out the quilts and sheets from time to time to dry them in the sun to avoid any smell.
Your second aunt and I have to open the door of your three siblings' room every day to ventilate it, for fear that one day when you come back, the room will smell and become uninhabitable."
Zhang Yunyue put her head on her mother's shoulder: "Thank you, mother, and thank you, second aunt."
Zhu: "Girl, you guys are busy outside every day, and we don't have anything to do at home, so doing these is just enough to kill time."
"Grandpa, grandma, I'm going to go to rest first. When I wake up, I'll continue to tell you about the city."
Grandma Zhang kindly replied, "Go ahead, go ahead. You don't look very well."
Zhang Yunxue: "Sister, I'll bring you some hot water so you can wash up."
"Then sister, thank you to our lovely Xiaoxue."
When Zhang Yunxue heard her elder sister say this, she immediately said happily, "You're welcome, elder sister." Then she ran to the kitchen to get hot water.
Zhang Yunyue took Zhang's mother's arm and went to the third courtyard.
The two went up the stairs, and Zhang's mother helped put on the bedding and pillows, and then spread the sheets.
Zhang Yunxue brought in the hot water.
"Sister, come and wash up."
Zhang Yunyue simply washed up with the hot water brought by Zhang Yunxue.
"Yueyue, have a good rest. Xiaoxue and I will go down first."
"Okay, grandma."
Zhang Yunyue didn't expect that she would sleep until the end of the morning hour of the next day.
When I woke up, the tiredness from riding in the carriage was gone.
Zhang Yunyue pushed open the door of the room, stood at the railing on the second floor, looked at the distant mountains, and instantly felt calm and peaceful.
Zhang Yunxue also got up at this time, pushed open the door, and saw Zhang Yunyue standing at the railing.
She skipped to Zhang Yunyue's side and said, "Sister, are you still tired now?"
He shook his head: "I'm not tired anymore. I feel very energetic now."
Then he looked down at Zhang Yunxue: "Come on, Xiaoxue, let's go down."
"it is good."
The two sisters walked into the main room, where Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang were already sitting, while Mother Zhang and Mrs. Zhu were preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
"Grandpa, grandma."
Grandma Zhang: "Yueyue, how did you sleep? I wanted to wake you up for dinner, but your mother said that since you didn't wake up, you should just have a good sleep and rest. When you wake up, you can get up and eat. As a result, you slept until this morning."
Zhang Yunyue sat next to Grandma Zhang and smiled embarrassedly. She had indeed slept for a long time.
Zhang Yunyue and Zhang Yunxue sat on each side of Grandma Zhang, and Zhang Yunyue told her about the interesting things in the city.
Zhang's mother came out from the kitchen: "Yueyue, Xiaoxue, clear the table and have breakfast."
"Okay, grandma."
The two of them got up, cleaned the table in the main room, and then went to the kitchen to serve breakfast.
When all the breakfast was served on the table, everyone in the family sat down.
Seeing that everyone was seated, Zhang Yunyue said:
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, there will be a guest coming to our house soon."
Grandpa Zhang heard this and smiled, "Okay, who is this person? Do we know him?"
Zhang Yunyue nodded: "Yes, you all know him. He is the owner of Tianxianglou. He helped us a lot when we opened a store in the capital city this time."
"Oh, that's a good treat."
"Grandpa, Dad, he came here for something else this time, that is, that is..."
Father Zhang saw that his daughter was stuttering: "Yueyue, is there something wrong? It's okay, just tell me."
"Yeah, Yueyue, don't be nervous."
Zhang Yunyue could only bite the bullet and say, "Grandpa, Dad, Ah Yan has been helping us find a dentist and a decorator in the city during this period.
Also, our store was previously spotted by the county magistrate’s nephew, who found a lot of problems with us. If it weren’t for him, it would have been difficult for us to handle it ourselves. He and I, he and I…”
