Chapter 270 Visiting
Chapter 270 Visiting
"Sister Yuexia's visit today is a real honor to our humble home." Lan Xin said politely with a smile.
Then he looked at Zhao Qingfeng and said, "Boss Zhao, business is going well recently, right? He's so busy that I can hardly see him. Yingying and Yueyue are always thinking about their sister Lingling."
Zhao Qingfeng and Aqing took things out of the trunk and said with a smile, "Thanks to you, business has been good recently. I've been so busy that I can't even keep up. Now I can finally take a day off."
Lan Xin didn't expect that Zhao Qingfeng, who was already a small boss with several employees, was still so busy.
"Come on, we're visiting. This is just a small token of my respect." Zhao Qingfeng smiled and handed over the gift with both hands. Seeing that it was an expensive item in exquisite packaging, Lan Xin quickly shook her head to refuse.
"Since you're here, why do you still need to bring gifts? This is really too formal."
"I've already said that I'm grateful to Boss Lan for making a fortune, so how can I come here empty-handed?" Zhao Qingfeng's words were polite, but they were also sincere.
No one knew where the news came from in the provincial capital, but a group of people started to make hair bands in a rush. There were too many of them, and the quality was uneven, so it didn’t take long for the price of the hair bands to be driven down.
Many people who later bought the circles wholesale from the Shanghai Stock Exchange or set up a small workshop to make them themselves lost a lot of money. Zhao Qingfeng was glad that he stopped early.
Not only did I not lose any money, I even made a lot of money.
All this is thanks to Lan Xin. If it weren't for her constant reminders, Zhao Qingfeng would never have made a move so easily. He would at least have kept the goods in stock and raised the price.
After the two of them pushed and shoved each other, and with Zhao Yuexia beside them constantly joining in, Lan Xin had no choice but to accept the gift, wondering what to give in return.
This time is different from the last time. Last time, it was Lan Xin who saved Zhao Yueling, and they came to thank Lan Xin and Lan Xi. This time it is a visit between friends.
"How has Aqing been doing recently?" Lan Xin asked, not ignoring Aqing who was standing next to Zhao Qingfeng.
I haven't seen him for more than two months. He is still as shiny as ever. He smiled with his white teeth showing and said, "I've been running around with Brother Zhao lately. I'm tired."
"Haha, if you are too tired, ask your boss Zhao to take responsibility." Lan Xin said with a smile: "It is October now, and your clothing store is busy with the new winter clothes."
Thanks to the development of the Internet in later generations, Lan Xin knew that garment factories had to prepare winter clothes in June and July, and stores selling clothes had to prepare new products in August and September, otherwise they would not be able to keep up with the season.
"That's right. They run around everywhere every day and leave the children to me to take care of. I finally get a day off and want to come over and play." Zhao Yuexia complained repeatedly when she talked about this.
This clothing store looks nice, but one has to run around all the time to purchase goods, and even the owner Zhao Qingfeng is no exception.
Lan Xin didn't ask Zhao Yueling's mother where she was. After all, the last news she heard was that Zhao Qingfeng's second wife wanted to sell Zhao Yueling, but she didn't hear that they were getting divorced. Now that so much time has passed, she couldn't gossip about the things between the couple.
After Zhao Yuexia finished speaking, she introduced the girl next to her to Lan Xin, "This is my daughter, Qin Yufang. Come here, Yufang, call me auntie."
Qin Yufang was a well-behaved and lovely girl. At this moment, she looked at Lan Xin tenderly and called out, "Auntie Lan Xin, hello."
"Yufang, hello. You look like you are in high school now." Lan Xin smiled woodenly and nodded in greeting.
I thought to myself, just call her auntie, it’s not unfair to be called auntie by a 15 or 16-year-old girl.
Zhao Yuexia nodded and said seriously, "She is just a freshman this year. If it weren't for the fact that her studies are not so intense, how could she have a day off today?"
Lan Xin thought deeply: "That's right, my brother came back the day before yesterday and stayed for a day and a half, then hurried back to school."
"Everyone, stop standing there and go inside and take a look."
Although Lan Xin was planning to receive guests at the Lan family's old house, it would be inappropriate not to go in now that they were already at the doorstep.
Lan Xin led the people into the house. Zhao Yuexia looked at the bamboo wall that was so green and enchanting two months ago, but now it has become yellow and green. She couldn't help but shook her head, thinking that the flowering period is really short, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
Lan Xin led the way while saying shyly, "Business has been good recently, so we added a few more stoves in the yard, and it's a bit messy."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. A random order means good business! Business is booming!" Zhao Yuexia said politely with a smile, looking around at Lan Xin's yard.
I found that the yard was indeed much messier than last time. There were three coal stoves under the eaves facing the entrance, with pots cooking something on them.
A small thatched shed was built in the corner to store black coal balls, and there were two more people in the yard to help. The aroma of tea eggs in the air not only did not fade, but became stronger.
The last time she brought some fresh vegetables back for her family to eat, a lot of them had been wasted. Seeing this, Zhao Yuexia's eyes showed a look of regret.
Lan Xin smiled and introduced them to the others: "These are Ma Cuihua and Lan Yongtian who helped me a lot and allowed me to breathe a sigh of relief."
Ma Cuihua looked at this group of well-dressed people and nodded with a somewhat reserved smile: "Hello."
Ma Yongtian, an introverted person standing nearby, nodded exaggeratedly along with Ma Cuihua without saying a word.
Zhao Qingfeng and others also smiled and nodded in greeting.
Yingying Yueyue brought Zhao Yueling into the yard early and started eating tea eggs with her.
Yingying and Yueyue lived in an environment filled with the aroma of tea eggs every day, and they were not restricted from eating them. Now, they don't like to eat tea eggs very much. On the contrary, Zhao Yueling, who had missed this taste for a long time, ate so much that her cheeks were bulging, and she looked as cute as a little squirrel.
"Zhao Yueling!"
Looking at Zhao Yueling's appearance, Zhao Qingfeng shouted angrily.
This girl, who was a guest at someone else's house, ate and drank as soon as she entered the door, showing no manners at all, which made him furious. He couldn't help but reflect on himself. He didn't need her to eat and drink, so how could he raise such a daughter?
Zhao Yueling was so scared that her shoulders trembled and she almost choked. She stood up and looked at Zhao Qingfeng aggrievedly. Yingying and Yueyue beside her did not dare to speak and stood up as well. Lan Xin stepped forward to smooth things over.
"The three of them have a good relationship as sisters. As soon as they met, Yingying and Yueyue took her to eat delicious food. If you want to blame someone, blame me for being too indulgent to them."
As Lan Xin spoke, she took the pot of tea eggs that had been prepared earlier from the table and handed them to Qin Yufang who was following Zhao Yuexia.
"Come on Yufang, try your aunt's tea eggs and see if they are delicious. This is my exclusive secret recipe."
Qin Yufang had been craving for the fragrant tea eggs for a long time. When she heard this, she glanced at her mother, reached out to take them, and said softly:
"Thank you, Aunt Lan Xin."
After saying that, she carefully peeled the shell of the tea egg, opened her mouth and took a bite, her eyes lit up.
