Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
We definitely wont tell on you! Dont worry! But to be honest, you guys must have made a lot of money there this time. Were all feeling a little envious, Chi Ze said with a smile.
You guys earn more money than us back here in the country! Im the one whos envious of you! Luo Yu said.
Thats different! Your earnings are in foreign currency, which is a lot of money when you convert it back to our currency! This is so amazing! Weve never seen foreign currency before! Chi Ze said.
Luo Yu chatted with the guys about many things in Country M and even gave the leftover foreign currency in his pocket to Chi Ze and the rest as a memento. He also told them about all the interesting and strange things that happened there.
Chi Ze and the other men were considered the managers of the various workshops in Qiao Meis factory and their salaries were definitely enough to support their respective families. However, w.a.n.g Fang and the rest of the womenfolk did not want to stay at home all the time. Half a year after Qiao Mei left, Qiane agreed to let them work at the factory.
Qiane did not give them any special treatment. They all started with the most basic jobs and everyone was treated equally. Whoever could get more work done would become the team leader of the workshop.
Qiao Mei brought them to the childrens room. During this period of time, the children were all at Xu Lans place, so the room was left vacant. It was a suitable place for them to sort out the gifts they had brought for the children. They opened up all the gifts and introduced the items to Qiao Mei one by one.
Can you remember everything? If you cant, well write it down and leave the instructions with Sister Feng Hua. Then theyll also know how to use the things, w.a.n.g Fang said.
Thank you, sisters-in-law. I thank all of you on behalf of the children. Oh right, I havent had the chance to ask Qiane yet. Hows business at the factory recently? Qiao Mei asked.
w.a.n.g Fang and Yang Mei looked at each other. They looked awkward and for a moment, they did not know how to tell Qiao Mei about those nasty things that had happened at the factory.
Were all family. If you have anything to say, just say it, Qiao Mei said.
Currently, the seeds business is getting better and better and the braised meat business is also doing very well, but its just that the popcorn business is especially bad. We have already closed three or four shops. If this continues, the popcorn business will suffer a huge loss! w.a.n.g Fang said agitatedly.
Why so? The popcorn business is nothing complicated. We just need to sell it directly in our own shops. How can it do so badly? Qiao Mei asked in confusion.
Its all the fault of that woman named Ding Xiang! She doesnt even know anything and yet she keeps ordering us around! She makes everyone suffer so much! Many of our colleagues came to complain to us and many people had even left the factory! Yang Mei said.
At that time, Qiao Mei did not want Qiane to tire herself out. To make it easier for Qiane to manage the factory, she handed over the management of the popcorn business to Zhao Fei. She and Qiane only received dividends and Zhao Fei and his wife had full authority to run the popcorn business. They had always worked well with Zhao Fei and felt that this good working relations.h.i.+p would continue into the future. She definitely did not expect things to end up like this.
Alright, 1 hear you. Ill definitely give everyone an explanation, but before that, I have to clarify things first, Qiao Mei said.
Well listen to you, w.a.n.g Fang said firmly.
Xu Kang entered the room. She quickly walked to Qiao Meis side and whispered, Qiane is here with Zhao Fei and his wife. Theyre in the guest room now.
You guys have a chat first. Ill go take a look at the guests who just came. Qiao Mei told w.a.n.g Fang and the others about where she was going and followed Xu Kang to meet Qiane and the other two people.
Qiane sat in the master seat in the main hall with a look of disdain. She had always occupied this seat when she was here. Even if Qiao Mei was present, she would still sit in the master seat. She knew very well that Qiao Mei doted on her and she did this knowing she had Qiao Meis backing.
Sister Qiane, Qiao Mei isnt here yet. Its not so good for you to sit there, right? Ding Xiang said sarcastically.
This was Ding Xiangs second time at Qiao Meis house. The first time, she had also come with Zhao Fei. At that time, the couple had agreed amiably to take over the factorys popcorn business. Now, they already looked completely different from before.
Why do you care where I sit? Qiane said sulkily.
You! How can you talk to me like that! Im older than you after all. You should actually address me as Sister-in-law! Ding Xiang said arrogantly..
