Chapter 283:100: Strolling Together in the Temple Fair,
Elderly Zheng Begins the Investigation_6
After returning ho, Mrs. Zheng took out a photo that she had treasured for over thirty years from the Bible. The child in the photo wore a small bellyband, with a golden bracelet on his hand, looking adorably naive.
“It really does look like her.” Mrs. Zheng’s face was instantly flushed with
tears.
After a while, she called Butler Liu Zhaokang.
Liu Zhaokang was an old retainer of the Zheng family. He joined the family when he was 16 and now he was 56. His only son also worked as a driver for the
Zheng family, so Mrs. Zheng trusted him.
“Butler Liu, I need you to do sothing for .”
Liu Zhaokang answered respectfully: “Whatever you say, Madam.”
Mrs. Zheng said, “I need you to look into soone…” She gave Liu Zhaokang detailed instructions and finally emphasised, “Get it done discreetly. It should only be known to you and , so don’t alert anyone.”
Liu Zhaokang nodded, “Madam, rest assured that I will handle the matter carefully. I guarantee that it will be done thoroughly and properly. I also wish you an early reunion with your daughter.”
Mrs. Zheng couldn’t help crying again at his words and waved him off weakly,
“Go ahead.”
Liu Zhaokang turned and left Mrs. Zheng’s bedroom.
On the third day of the New Year, Lin Pingping and Wang ifeng’s family, carrying large and small bags, ca to the Ni family to wish them a Happy New
Year.
The third day of the New Year was a very significant day, usually reserved for visiting the most important relatives.
But to Lin Pingping and Wang ifeng’s family, Ni Yang was like their lifesaver. There were no relatives more important than her.
That’s why they chose this day to visit Ni Yang’s family to express their respect for her.
“Sister Ni Yang, Auntie Hua, Auntie Ni, Happy New Year!” Yang Guobao ran in cheerfully, “Oh, and Little Yunyun, Happy New Year to you too!”
Little Ni Yun opened her arms, wanting Yang Guobao to hold her.
Ni Yang, Ni Cuihua, and Ni Chenggui ca out to greet them.
“Sister Cuihua, Sister Chenggui.” Lin Pingping embraced Ni Cuihua and Ni
Chenggui excitedly.
After exchanging New Year greetings, they all entered the house.
Yang Guobao played with Little Ni Yun.
Ni Yang went to cook, while Lin Pingping, Ni Chenggui, and Wang ifeng helped her.
Ni Cuihua and Zhou Suhua were left in the living room for a chat.
Although Zhou Suhua used to be a leader and used to put on airs when dealing with others, she was down-to-earth and friendly when interacting with Ni
Cuihua.
They had many common topics and there were no obstacles in their conversation.
With the help of Lin Pingping, Wang ifeng, and Ni Chenggui, Ni Yang cooked a large table full of dishes. They all had a great ti and stayed until evening before going ho.
On the sixth day of the New Year, Ni Yang visited Tie Dan and Guo Qiang’s ho in the village.
Ni Yang went to invite their mothers to help in the milk tea shop and the noodle restaurant.
In the new year, Ni Yang increased their wages by 5 yuan, from 60 yuan to now
65 yuan.
Anybody would be a fool to decline such a high salary.
Upon hearing this, Guo Qiang’s mother, Zhao Xiaolan, and Tie Dan’s mother, Wang Yui, were extrely grateful to Ni Yang.
And just like that, it was already the eighth day of the New Year.
The arrival of the eighth day also marks the end of the New Year celebration, and work resus ordinarily.
Today is the first day of business for the milk tea shop and the noodle restaurant after the New Year.
In the morning, when Ni Yang arrived at her shop, she set off two strings of firecrackers to signify prosperity and wish for a successful year from start to end.
The business on the first day of the New Year was booming!
Everyone had been feasting for eight days straight, and they now just wanted to eat to their heart’s content!
There were cheerful laughter inside and outside the shop.
Since coming to work in the morning, Zhou Hua has been staring blankly outside the door, as if eagerly looking forward to sothing.
In fact.
She had been looking forward to it since the first day of the lunar new year.
Because that young lady promised to co over after the new year.
She had waited eight days a year, but that young lady had never shown up.
Damn it!
Was it really a result of her previous attitude that had disappointed the young lady?
Zhou Hua felt mixed emotions, extrely distressed.
If only ti could be turned back, she would definitely kill her stupid past self.
Just as Zhou Hua was on the verge of despair, a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the door.
It was that young lady!
Zhou Hua was overjoyed!
Though she had only seen her once, but that young lady was just so beautiful that Zhou Hua rembered her at a glance.
Zhou Hua imdiately greeted her, “Young lady, young lady! You’re finally here! I’ve been waiting for you for so many days.”
To tell the truth, Zhou Hua’s reaction was within Ni Yan’s expectation as she had enough confidence in her products.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to rent a store in this big mall.
Ni Yan looked apologetic, “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. I left in a hurry last ti and didn’t tell you the exact ti.”
Zhou Hua was surprised, initially she thought Ni Yan would use this incident to tease her because she was at fault in the first place. With how effective the skincare product was, if Ni Yan was to make things difficult for her, she would have no other option but to endure it.
Zhou Hua was even prepared for Ni Yan to give her a hard ti. However, Ni Yan not only didn’t make things difficult for her, she even took all the bla onto herself.
This young lady was astonishing and seed to have sothing extraordinary about her.
Admiration began to show in Zhou Hua’s eyes.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, as long as you have co, I was afraid that you would not co. After all, I was a bit abrupt last ti. I apologize for what happened last ti, little miss, you must not take it to heart.”
Since Ni Yan was so broad-minded, she couldn’t be petty and had to avoid making a bad impression on Ni Yan. After all, she still wanted to buy the skincare product from Ni Yan in the future.
Ni Yan laughed, “Auntie, you’re being too serious. By the way, can I rent a new store now?”
“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhou Hua nodded eagerly, “You see, I completely forgot about this when I got excited, I will take you to the store to have a look now.”
Ni Yan smiled slightly, “Auntie, please lead the way.”
While walking, Zhou Hua introduced the store to Ni Yan, and in no ti, they arrived at the store’s location.
As Zhou Hua said, this store was in the best position in the skincare product area on the entire second floor.
During the conversation, Zhou Hua had already learned Ni Yan s na, “Yangyang, this store is 138 yuan a month. The contract period is three years, five years, and up to ten years. Of course, if you want to sign a shorter contract, there is also a one-year option.”
Ni Yan responded without hesitation, “I want to sign for ten years.
If she signed for ten years, it ant that the store’s rent would not increase for ten years.
As far as Ni Yan knew, the mail’s rent would continuously rise a year later, and would keep increasing until it reached six figures. Ni Yan was no fool, of course she would choose to sign a longer lease.
Zhou Hua was taken aback, then stated, “If you sign a ten-year contract, you need to first pay a deposit of 10,000 yuan.”
10,000 yuan was not a small number, Zhou Hua was a bit worried that Ni Yan might not be able to afford it.
Although Ni Yan had just bought a house recently, she still had the money to pay the deposit.
Ni Yan nodded her head with a smile, “Yes, no problem.”
Zhou Hua did not expect Ni Yan to be able to afford even 10,000 yuan, but considering how popular her skincare product was, being able to afford 10,000 yuan didn’t seem strange.
They successfully signed the contract, paid the deposit, and Ni Yan received the keys to the store.
Zhou Hua laughed and said, “Yangyang, congratulations! I wish you prosperous business, abundant wealth, and continuous fortune.
“Thankyou, Auntie.” Ni Yan handed the skincare gift box in her hand to Zhou Hua, “Auntie, thank you for your hard work on this matter, wishing you a happy New Year and everlasting youth.”
