Luo Zhiyong didn’t say anything, but Luo Honglan actually quite agreed with Fang Pingying’s words.
She stood beside Fang Pingying and said, "Sister-in-law, don’t be upset, I also agree with you. Now, as for that family, I have no plans to go back either, except for my dad. As for the rest of them, whether they’re dead or disabled, it has nothing to do with . After all, they never treated as one of the family. Why should I bother with them?"
Fang Pingying looked at Luo Honglan with a nod of approval.
She was sowhat surprised by this girl. She originally thought that although Luo Honglan was angry the last ti she was at ho, maybe it was just a spur-of-the-mont outburst and that she was soft-hearted, and if sothing really happened at ho, she might just scurry to help as before.
But from what happened today, she realized that Luo Honglan really ant what she said. Once she said she would not bother with family affairs, she truly didn’t.
It seems that even the nicest person has their limits in tolerating others.
The actions of Zhou Yuni and the others last ti must have crossed Luo Honglan’s bottom line. Now she truly feels an indifference towards those people in the family, as she said, even if they are dead or disabled, it doesn’t concern her.
On the other hand, after Fang Pingying finished speaking, Luo Zhiyong beca silent.
Perhaps he was worried that if the loan sharks really caused a commotion when they went back, he was concerned that Luo Dashan and the others wouldn’t know how to handle it, since those people are not to be trifled with.
Fang Pingying could see his worries, but she didn’t address them.
Luo Zhiyong had promised her many tis that he wouldn’t take care of these ssy family matters, especially anything to do with Luo Zhiming.
Now, if he starts to waver again, Fang Pingying would just let him deal with it himself.
Whatever he wants to do is up to him, but Fang Pingying won’t take out a single yuan, and she definitely won’t have anything to do with Luo Zhiming again.
Even for the sake of Luo Dashan, she would not spend her hard-earned money to pay off the debt of her enemies, although the two thousand yuan now is just a small sum to her.
If it were to be spent on Luo Zhiming and Xu He, she would rather throw the money into the water.
After making the situation clear, Luo Zhiyong returned to the army. He had taken leave temporarily, and there were things to handle back with the troops.
Originally, Fang Pingying had made plans to go to the supermarket today, but Zeng Weiguo and the others said they would go tomorrow, so she didn’t go out, staying at ho to review the accounts of the pastry shop.
It was almost the fifteenth of August of the year, and the pastry shop’s business had improved a lot, receiving many orders.
Since the pastries from the pastry shop were all created by Fang Pingying herself, she had added many varieties over the last two years. Sotis during festivals, Fang Pingying would introduce one or two special pastries.
Last year on the fifteenth of August, Fang Pingying made a kind of crystal mooncake from a previous lifeti, with thin crust and abundant filling, in various flavors and packaging, available for individual sale, as well as in gift sets, attracting a lot of custors.
Moreover, this kind of ice-skin mooncake was a specialty of her shop. She didn’t sell it in Uncle Zeng’s departnt store, but made large orders just for Zeng Weiguo’s factory and charged him for the labor.
Because it was only available in Fang Pingying’s shop, it gave people the impression of exclusivity, which drove a lot of business, bringing her pastry shop to a peak. Thus, Fang Pingying started to have other plans for it.
This year, several months in advance, people had already co to place orders, and Fang Pingying was arranging how to handle the shipnts.
Fang Pingying was thinking that maybe her pastry shop should start preparing to open a branch in another place. Many people had co because of its reputation, saying the food here was really delicious, but the distance was too far.
If she could open a branch sowhere further away, it would be convenient for custors to make purchases and definitely profitable.
Seeing such an opportunity, Fang Pingying naturally wouldn’t let it slip by others, but she couldn’t handle everything herself. She planned to let Fang Xiu handle a shop.
The goods would be the sa as hers, taken from Zeng Weiguo, and she would renegotiate the prices with Zeng Weiguo’s side. Even if it was a bit more expensive, it would be okay, because the profit margins of these goods were still high.
If a shop was opened in a good location and Fang Xiu managed it well, earning a couple of thousand yuan a month would not be a problem.
And the capital needed wouldn’t be too much, just rent for the shop, so decorations and such. But once it’s up and running, Fang Xiu’s life would definitely be very happy.
So after so calculations, Fang Pingying called Fang Xiu and asked her to co over to her house in the afternoon after she was done with her work, as there was sothing she wanted to discuss with her.
Just after she made the call, Li Yuchun ca with Haohao in her arms.
Li Yuchun had the keys to the place. She opened the door herself and upon entering, she called out, "Pingying, did sothing happen at your place today? On my way over, I heard people talking about your family’s business."
Sure enough, the neighbors must have seen the loan sharks co to collect debts, and people would naturally speculate wildly.
Fang Pingying briefly explained to Li Yuchun, "Luo Zhiming borrowed money from soone last year when he was here, and now they’ve co to collect the debt."
Upon hearing Luo Zhiming’s na, Luo Yuchun cursed angrily, "That damn Luo Zhiming, how co with so many people dying every day, he just won’t die? He’s always causing trouble."
After giving it so thought, Li Yuchun then asked, "So what are you going to do, pay off his debt for him?"
"His death is his own business, I’m certainly not going to help him pay it off," Fang Pingying frowned and said, "I’ve already called ho to tell him to co over himself. Don’t worry about it."
Li Yuchun thought that was indeed the right thing to say, she nodded firmly and also reminded Fang Pingying to be careful these days and not to run around everywhere.
Fang Pingying nodded absentmindedly, then rembering the plan to let Fang Xiu open a shop, she asked Li Yuchun, "Mom, I have a question for you. You and Fang Xiu have been in the city for so long, have you managed to save much money?"
"We’ve saved so." Li Yuchun’s eyes curved into a smile when she thought of the money they had saved these days. She told Fang Pingying honestly, "Your dad now earns a salary of eighty yuan a month, and you occasionally slip so money. Xiu’er also gives twenty or thirty yuan for living expenses each month. I’ve saved up almost eight hundred yuan by my side, and Xiu’er should have saved so too. Together, we should have over a thousand yuan."
Thinking it over, Li Yuchun assud that Fang Pingying needed money for herself, so she hurriedly said, "What’s wrong, do you need money? If so, take Haohao with you, and I’ll go back and get it for you right now."
As she spoke, she stood up, ready to go get the money.
Fang Pingying smiled and pushed her to sit back down on the couch, sharing her own plan, "No, I don’t need money, I have money of my own if I need it, and I wouldn’t use yours. I was thinking, since you’ve managed to save so much money, instead of just keeping it, why not take it out and let Fang Xiu start a business with a shop."
