Chapter 881: Chapter 883: What Did She Say?
Sure enough, Second Uncle Ji Feng and Little Uncle Ji Shan considered Xu Nianji and Xu Nian’an’s words and agreed, especially since Xu Qinghe was willing to give them furniture on credit, allowing them to pay after selling it.
After discussing together, Ji Feng and Ji Shan immediately quit their jobs at the factory and even found a shop. It’s an old flat house, diagonally opposite a busy street. Due to the rent being high for its size, it had been vacant for a long time.
Ji Shan said happily, "I often walk by here. It used to be a candy shop, but it couldn’t keep going because the profits weren’t good. The house is neither too big nor too small, and many people thought it wasn’t suitable. Now we’ve really got a bargain."
"It’s good to save some money now. When the actual furniture arrives, we certainly can’t let Ji Ying and her husband take a loss." Ji Feng was also very happy. He hadn’t wanted to work at the food factory for a long time since the monthly salary was fixed, and after household expenses, there’s barely any savings.
This is even with both of them working; otherwise, it would be even more worrying.
Xu Nianji and Xu Nian’an, who watched from beginning to end, were simply stunned by the courage of Second Uncle and Little Uncle!
That evening, when Xu Nianji returned home, he talked about the whole thing.
Xu Nianhua said, "It seems Second Uncle and Little Uncle were just waiting for Mom and Dad to bring it up."
"Nothing goes to waste." Ji Ying felt a silent relief seeing her two brothers both have work. She wanted everyone to live well, not just their family.
"Nianji, when you deliver the goods, make sure to tell your Second Uncle and Little Uncle that integrity is the most important thing in business. Don’t ruin the reputation of our Qingsong Furniture Factory." Xu Qinghe also wanted the furniture from the factory to sell more, and being just one person, he was worried about not having anyone to sell in the city.
If Ji Shan and Ji Feng can really sell the furniture to South City, it would be a good thing for the furniture factory and also help Ji Shan and Ji Feng.

"Jing, how about I go with you to send off Zhao Xiu?" Gu Mingzhu was worried. What if Zhao Xiu talked bad about her when she wasn’t there?
She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt Jiang Jing had changed recently. He barely said a few words to her before claiming he was busy, or just asking about the baby in her belly.
"No need, take good care of yourself." Jiang Jing packed a few clothes, paused, and said, "There are a lot of things to do at the factory. I might have to stay there for a few days."
"The factory isn’t that far from home, Jing. Why do you..."
Before Gu Mingzhu could finish, Jiang Jing interrupted, "Mingzhu, I promised Dad to manage the factory well. Mom and Dad are going to Guangcheng, so I have a lot to handle."
All the words Gu Mingzhu wanted to say were swallowed back down. It was because the Gu Family borrowed two hundred thousand, and that was why Jiang Jing was so busy.
A feeling she couldn’t describe rose in her heart. Even though it was just borrowing money, after really getting the two hundred thousand, she felt something was different.
At the station, Jiang Jing reminded Zhao Xiu multiple times to stay with Jiang Yuan. He not only cautioned Zhao Xiu but also her brother and dad, telling them to stay safe and to talk to his cousin Jiang Yuan if they needed anything.
Before boarding, Jiang Jing looked at Zhao Xiu, hesitated to speak, and Zhao Xiu said, "Jiang Jing, if you don’t want me to go get my leg treated, just say so."
"No, I just have some things to ask you." Jiang Jing stammered and finally asked, "Back then, what exactly did Mingzhu say to you?"
