Chapter 1773: Jiang Wenyue Comes to the Door to Report Good News

~4 min read 707 words

The following days passed smoothly.

After translating the newspaper's materials, Chuxue spent her days not only translating materials from the First Ministry of Machinery but also taking time to sketch clothing designs to keep, a hobby of hers and a future goal.

Of course, she had not cut ties with the factory she had previously cooperated with; every month she would send three design sketches over.

Because the order volume for the produced ready-made clothes had increased several-fold, each design sketch was now settled at two hundred yuan, accompanied by a settlement voucher.

So when translation tired her, she would pick up her brush to draw design sketches, cultivating her sentiments while earning some extra money, killing two birds with one stone.

In between, she returned to the city once, bringing some nutritional supplements to her mother-in-law, and also went to visit her younger female cousin, only to learn that the cousin had been found pregnant, just one month along.

This made everyone, including Chuxue, feel a wave of post-fear; if the rescue had not been so timely, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

After leaving her cousin's home, Chuxue specifically found an excuse to return and gave her quite a bit of fruit and vegetables produced from the space, all to ensure she could properly nourish the fetus.

Before school started, Chuxue returned to the courtyard at Shichahai with her whole family.

Song Sanrui and his wife had tidied up the house well in advance.

By the time they returned, Zhang Yurong had already left.

Gu Xiaomi brought out a handbag: "Comrade Zhang Yurong asked me to hand this to you and also to say thank you to you."

Last time she returned to the city, she did not go home; the truth was she was not good at persuading people, and since their relationship had not been very good before, she feared that her return would only make Zhang Yurong uncomfortable, so she had never come back.

The little ones had been taken by Wei Wenbin to the front office to meet friends; she opened that handbag, and on top was a note containing only words of gratitude, while below lay three sets of children's clothes.

The styles were ordinary, but the craftsmanship was excellent.

Chuxue held those clothes and stared blankly for a long time; truly, she had not expected a perfectly fine couple to part ways because of ambition.

And Fu Yanwei and Hao Yanhong, whom she had valued the least, had instead lived their days prosperously because they were content with what they had; truly, the ways of the world are unpredictable.

Just as she was thinking, she heard Auntie Wei knocking on the door: "Chuxue, someone is looking for you."

Chuxue put the things down and walked out of the room, seeing Jiang Wenyue standing in the courtyard: "Why have you come over?"

A roguish smile hung on Jiang Wenyue's lips: "Asking that question, aren't you afraid that if I never appeared again, I would lose all the money you invested?"

Chuxue walked toward the stone table and gestured for her to sit.

Auntie Wei brought over a pot of tea; Chuxue poured a cup for Jiang Wenyue: "Looking at your expression, it doesn't seem like you lost; speak, what good news is it?"

Jiang Wenyue took a sip from her teacup before speaking: "The laundry paste and laundry powder produced by the factory have entered the major department stores in the capital city; I came specifically today to tell you and to let you, this shareholder, be happy."

Chuxue did not expect it to be so fast, but thinking about it, the few people who opened the factory with her were said to have backgrounds and status; as long as the products were good, entering the department stores was only a matter of time: "That's great; will my twenty thousand yuan be able to recoup its cost very soon?"

Seeing her say that, Jiang Wenyue smiled and said: "There is a second reason I came today."

Chuxue became interested: "Could it be that there is another money-making opportunity?"

Jiang Wenyue did not expect Chuxue to be so sensitive: "Since you guessed it, I won't beat around the bush with you."
