Since it was not working hours, everyone could move around and talk. While they cleaned, they gathered in twos and threes to chat.
“How did you guys sleep last night?”
“l slept late and woke up early.”
“l did the same because I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep.”
“I’m not used to not working for so long.”
“Yeah, we’ve been off work for almost a month. It’s been a while since I saw you guys.”
“Miss Su treats everyone well. She gave us such an extended vacation. We were always free after the autumn harvest, but the vacation felt different.”
“You’re right. 1 almost panicked because I had nothing to do. Still, I was very relaxed at home during the holidays.”
“That must be because we feel secure with full-time jobs. I can earn a steady monthly salary if I continue working here.”
“Winter should end soon. Our families will soon get busy harvesting rapeseeds.”
“You’re from Su Teng Village, right? You planted rapeseed, which you can harvest oil from. Some people from my village don’t know about rapeseed, but my parents say they want to buy some this year.” “My parents have the same intention, too.”
“Hey, your clothes look lovely.”
“My aunt made them for me. She has excellent craftsmanship, and her embroidery skills are better than mine, However, she was pregnant and missed last year’s interview. She’ll reapply once she gives birth.”
“When will the embroidery shop hire more people?”
“l wonder if it’ll expand. Did you guys see the factory being built next door?”
“Is Miss Su building more shops and factories? Will she hire people like she did last time?”
“I’m sure she will.’
“That’s perfect! My elder brother, sister-in-law, and nephew also want to live and work here, but they live in another county, which is pretty far from here. Fortunately, there’s a staff dormitory here.”
“l heard Miss Su will build a residential area here. When the construction is complete, we can buy houses.”
“Yes, 1 would recommend others get a job here. Working for the Su family could help people earn enough to buy a house.”
The workers discussed many things. Most chatted about who had visited them for the New Year. Some distant relatives asked about the factory and when the Su family would hire more workers.
Those who did not work for the Su family envied their family members who did. Hence, the former wanted to find work in Su Teng Village. The latter never expected their family members to envy them for the jobs they had.
However, those who worked for the Su family were proud of how far they had gone. Their doubtful relatives no longer doubted them. Instead, the naysayers curried favors with their prosperous relatives.
Whether it was the embroidery shop, tofu factory, winery, or noodle shop, everyone cleaned up in the morning and attended a meeting before officially returning to work.
Luo Jin’an prepared to set off after the family finished breakfast. Everyone expressed their understanding and did not pry, even though they knew he had secrets.
Su Binglan quietly helped her husband pack. Although she did not say much, she looked at him worriedly. Luo Jin’an hugged her and said, “I’ll be back before you know it.”
Su Binglan said solemnly, “Okay, but you must protect yourself at all costs.
Notify me and stay hidden if you encounter any danger.”
Luo Jin’an stroked her hair and said, “Okay, you take care of yourself, too.
Don’t make me worry, understand?”
He sometimes treated his wife like a little girl, looking at her dotingly.
Su Binglan nodded. “I understand.”
After cleaning up, Su Wenwu asked Ye Feiran, “Did you sleep well last night?”
Ye Feiran and Su Wenwu shared the same courtyard last night. Although they were not in the same room, Ye Feiran’s was just to the left of Su Wenwu’s.
Ye Feiran said smilingly, “Don’t worry, I slept very well.”
She felt a sense of novelty while lying on the heated brick bed last night. She felt the warmth from the charcoal under the bed. Her blanket kept her warm and comfortable, too.
Ye Feiran even fell asleep as soon as she lay down. It had been long since she slept so soundly. Moreover, she felt strangely safe last night. When she woke up, she felt energetic.
Su Wenwu sighed in relief, saying, “l was just worried you would have trouble sleeping because you’re in a new environment.”
Ye Feiran shook her head. “No, I slept well. Don’t worry about it.”
She felt safe living here because she did not need to worry about anyone trying to assassinate her, perhaps because Su Wenwu was in the room beside her.
“That’s good. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask me.” Su Wenwu felt awkward facing Ye Feiran today, maybe because they enjoyed themselves in Tenghe Town last night.
‘Why does Feiran’s smile look so delicate? He looks more like a girl every day.’ Su Wenwu felt like he was hallucinating.
Meanwhile, Ye Feiran remained oblivious to Su Wenwu’s thoughts. She nodded, saying, “All right.”
Su Wenwu asked, “Do you want to go to the Mala hotpot restaurant with me?”
Suddenly, Su Binglan said, “Wenwu, Feiran, I have something to discuss with you. It’s about a collaboration.”
Su Wenwu’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He knew his sister must have new business ideas. Moreover, he could learn much from listening to Su Binglan.
Ye Feiran and Su Wenwu discussed many things in town last night. Su Wenwu mostly talked about his sister, and Ye Feiran listened carefully. The latter realized how capable Su Binglan was during dinner.
Since Su Binglan had researched and developed many gourmet cooking methods, Ye Feiran was curious about what she would say.
Su Wenwu and Ye Feiran followed Su Binglan to her study, and the latter went straight to the point, “Feiran, 1 won’t keep you in suspense. I want to cooperate with you because 1 need your seafood ingredients..”
