"No." Bai Qing answered swiftly. In front of others, she might hide her feelings, but Tang Yue, who had been around Bai Qing day in and day out for so long, still understood. The more Bai Qing didn't want her to go, the more Tang Yue wanted to meet him. "Ah." Bai Qing sighed and could only say, "Xiao Yue, let's meet next time you're back in Jing City. He..." Tang Yue reached out and held her hand. Without Bai Qing saying more, she could only guess wildly. She asked, worried, "Sister Qing, you wouldn't have... for my sake?" "You're overthinking it." Bai Qing's mouth twitched and said, "He only asked me to cook for him for a month." "That simple?" Tang Yue looked at Bai Qing with surprise on her face. Just having her cook for a month turned the worry in her eyes into curiosity. She said, "Sister Qing, could it be that he's your secret admirer?" Mingli later told her something about it, but without seeing the person, she couldn't say for sure. "Cough." Bai Qing cleared her throat without denying it and walked away as if fleeing, saying, "Xiao Yue, we'll meet if it's meant to be." "Sister Qing, I'm not a man-eating tiger," Tang Yue watched Bai Qing longingly and couldn't help but smile wryly. She wasn't a man-eating tiger; even if she really did meet him, could she eat him? Muttering in her heart, Tang Yue had just come out when Tang Jun pulled her aside. Tang Jun said, "Sis, you're thinking about the clothing factory, right? I'll go with you." "Right, what about Qiangzi and the others? Why haven't I seen them?" Tang Yue asked. The source of thɪs content is novel(ꜰ)ire.net This time she returned, she hadn't seen Zhang Qiang. "He went back home to farm, it's the time to plant rice, after all. Jiajie and Mo Weidong have also gone back home for the farm work." Tang Jun originally planned to go as well, but he couldn't bear to leave with Tang Yue back. "Oh, how's Grandma doing?" Tang Yue inquired. Tang Jun had grown up and matured, answering Tang Yue's question very promptly. Elder Mrs. Zhang's health had improved considerably in the past few years since the family had started to earn money, and her condition had gotten much better. "That's good, I'll go see Grandma tomorrow, then leave in the afternoon," Tang Yue thought to herself. Tang Yue, bringing Tang Jun along, specially went to the store to buy a lot of things before heading to the clothing factory. As soon as they arrived at the factory, they saw Uncle Gen and Granny Tang chatting. "Oh, Xiao Yue is back?" When Granny Tang saw Tang Yue, she looked a bit excited. She eagerly looked behind her, but didn't see Tang Mingli. She asked, "Your uncle and the others haven't returned?" "Granny, they didn't come back, it's just me," Tang Yue said cheerfully, greeting Uncle Gen. Ever since Uncle Gen moved out of the village, he seemed like a different person altogether. Nowadays, Uncle Gen looked like a retired old grandpa, no longer the man who had hardly anyone to talk to in the village. "Good," Uncle Gen smiled candidly. "Granny, where are Xiao Xian and Guo Li? I want to see the kids," Tang Yue said, clearly very interested in these children. She was an aunt, after all. Although, although she wasn't a biological aunt, the child would still call her Aunt in the future. In her past life, Tang Yue ended up with hardly any family members, no, she ended up with none at all. In this life, having so many relatives, she was still very happy, she felt greatly favored by the heavens. "They're inside the house." Granny Tang saw Tang Yue had brought a lot of things and asked, "Xiao Yue, does your dad know you're back?" "Mhm," Tang Yue responded. The Mingyue Clothing Factory now looked very pretty. The brand-new workshop looked imposing, and even the adjacent dormitory building was new. Tang Xian and his wife, along with Granny Tang and Tang Zhengyuan, lived on the first floor, occupying a few rooms next to each other. "Xiao Xian went back to the village, and I don't know if Pang Pang is asleep yet." Granny Tang started to talk endlessly as she thought of her great-grandson. The baby's cries were loud. "What's wrong with Pang Pang?" Granny Tang hastened her steps. Tang Yue followed into the room, which wasn't very big and felt somewhat crowded with a child in it. Guo Li must have just been sleeping; the baby woke up and she was holding him in bed trying to soothe him. "Maybe he's hungry," Guo Li said, and immediately started feeding the child. Sure enough, once the baby found his "food," he stopped crying. "Xiao Yue," Guo Li greeted. Tang Jun didn't come in; he went off to play around the factory. "Xiao Li, I'm sorry I couldn't come back when you gave birth." Tang Yue said, placing the things she brought to one side. The baby was breastfeeding, so she felt too shy to come closer. Listening to Granny Tang and Guo Li talk, she chimed in occasionally. After the baby was full, Tang Yue came closer to take a good look and thought the baby was rather handsome, resembling Tang Xian more and fair-skinned, with chubby little arms like lotus root. "So cute." Tang Yue watched the baby, wanting to reach out but also afraid. "Pang Pang, your auntie's here to see you," Guo Li said as she held Tang Zhihao. "His full name is Tang Zhihao." "Zhihao, that's a lovely name." She held Tang Zhihao's chubby little hand, which felt soft, and said, "Auntie's here to see you." She had heard before that the baby's nickname was Pang Pang, and now seeing him, she knew why he got that name; he was sturdier than the average child. "Do you want to hold him?" Guo Li suggested, seeing that Tang Yue genuinely adored the child. "I don't know how to hold a baby," Tang Yue confessed, looking at the soft, tiny child, not daring to reach out. She wanted to try but ultimately didn't dare. She just touched his tender little face and hand, saying, "Auntie won't hold you for now. I don't know how to, but once you grow up a bit, auntie will hold you then." Little Tang Zhihao smiled with his mouth agape. His small, soft appearance made Tang Yue's heart melt too. She took out the silver bracelet and a red envelope she had already prepared and placed them beside Tang Zhihao, saying, "Auntie's bought you clothes and yummy food." "No need," Guo Li quickly refused upon seeing them. The silver bracelet looked very pretty and expensive, not to mention the red envelope, which was certainly not a small amount. "It's not okay, this is for Zhihao, not for you." Tang Yue looked at Guo Li earnestly, noting that since having a child, Guo Li became even prettier than before, with a glowing maternal beauty. With Tang Xian building his own business too, the couple was surely going to have a good life. The baby slept a lot, and Tang Yue didn't know what more to say to them, so she excused herself to leave. Guo Li opened the red envelope and was shocked. Granny Tang glanced at it and said, "This child, Zhengde didn't raise him for nothing. Xiao Li, make sure to add more good food for the baby from now on." "Xiao Yue?" Ding Chao had some doubts when Tang Jun mentioned his sister had come along. It was a time of neither holiday nor festival; why had Tang Yue come back? Only when he actually saw Tang Yue did Ding Chao believe that Tang Yue had really returned. "Uncle Ding," Tang Yue greeted him with a smiling face, "Uncle Ding, you've lost weight, haven't you? Traveling between Jing City and Jiang City must be tiring, right?" "Losing some weight is good, your aunt said having a firm belly is better," Ding Chao said as he took Tang Yue on a tour of the workshop. The workshop had gradually grown in scale and looked exceptionally nice - clean and organized, with clothes being woven out of these machines, one by one.
