Chapter 322: Chapter 321: Yin Peibai Gets Married
"Alright, I’ll let you know tomorrow if there’s any progress."
"Thanks, Ma."
"No need to be so formal."
Lin Wan thought that whether it works out or not, once the clothes are sold, she must invite a few people to their restaurant for a good meal.
Ever since Han Yi came back, he had been picking her up on time every night. Lin Wan couldn’t bear to think about how she would manage going home alone in a car once Han Yi leaves again.
"By the way, Xiao Wan, we want to take some family members to your restaurant tomorrow to have a look. Is that okay?" Zhang Hanfu asked her as he met her at the school gate.
"Sure, what time tomorrow?"
"How about tomorrow morning?"
"Alright, I’ll wait for you at the restaurant then."
"Xiao Wan, you run a restaurant and often handle wedding orders; you must have a good selection of dishes, right?"
"Don’t worry, we have a whole series of them, in every price range. You can choose what you like, and if you’re not satisfied, you can change it."
"Alright, see you tomorrow."
... ...
Lin Wan didn’t want to wander the streets every day. Considering Sister Zhao’s case, she thought about pulling some strings or, if that doesn’t work, just stockpile them and wait until spring to sell; prices wouldn’t drop by then.
Han Yi had a month-long vacation. It had been three weeks since he returned, and he’s been following her around, never staying at home.
They hadn’t had a chance to truly have fun.
The next day, Lin Wan didn’t wake Han Yi up early to help Mom with the morning market. They cherished the chance to sleep in together.
The two of them didn’t get up until nine.
They didn’t bother with breakfast; they went straight to Mom’s place. Ever since Mom moved in, it seems Lin Wan hasn’t cooked breakfast herself.
"Mom, yesterday Han Yi and I bought you a gas cylinder for cooking. I’ll show you how to use it in a bit."
"This iron hunk you mentioned – it can cook meals?"
"Yeah, absolutely," Lin Wan said, finishing the last bite of bread in her hand. She stood up and explained to Liang Hongmei how to use it.
Liang Hongmei listened once and tried following her daughter’s instructions. When igniting it, match after match was lit but failed to ignite the gas.
Scared, Liang Hongmei quickly asked them to take it away,
saying it was too frightening and she couldn’t use it.
Lin Wan and Han Yi could only shrug helplessly.
After the meal, Han Yi drove the tricycle with Lin Wan, while Mrs. Liang rode her bike, all heading to the restaurant.
Around ten o’clock, Zhang Hanfu came with his parents.
This time, Yin Peibai didn’t come; organizing the wedding banquet was a responsibility for the groom’s family anyway.
Zhang Hanfu’s parents already knew about the place and were surprised to discover it was run by their daughter-in-law’s classmate.
The whole family was quite pleased with the place.
Lin Wan handed them a booklet to look at each price range of dishes.
Lin Wan had studied three options, all based on local customs.
The first was slightly cheaper at 160. Despite the lower price, it was still decent. The second was mid-range, which was often chosen, at 200. The third was at 280, with drinks calculated separately, based on consumption. If they had their own, they could bring their own drinks.
Zhang Hanfu’s parents opted for the mid-range price. Lin Wan immediately gave them a discount of twenty yuan and threw in a fruit platter.
Zhang Hanfu’s parents were very satisfied with Lin Wan. It’s just how family and friends are; relationships are built through interactions. If someone thinks you’re good, they’ll connect with you more often.
After seeing the family off, Lin Wan discussed with Xiao Gu about canceling the night market.
Once the weather changed, they would immediately start serving hot pot along with some promotional activities.
Around noon, the two of them brought two live hens to Grandma’s house. The hens were alive so that Saozi could keep them, and the seller mentioned they were still laying eggs.
As soon as Han Ying saw them arrive, she was overjoyed.
She hurried Saozi to prepare lunch.
They came at this time just to have a meal with Grandma. Lin Wan helped Saozi with the preparations and cooked a pot of white rice.
"Xiao Wan, recently Saozi managed to sell the soap to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative. Guess what happened?"
