"Real estate, huh? That's good." Tang Yue looked at Cai Wanwan with admiration. Hu Jian Country's job was seen by everyone as a secure rice bowl, and to give it up for a daughter, she felt that it still required courage. Moreover, doing business, individual entrepreneurship nowadays is not as looked down upon as in the early eighties, but not everyone thinks doing business is profitable. With real estate, starting from now, as long as it's managed properly, it could be a lucrative and risk-free venture. "What about Mr. Hu?" Mo Xiaolin asked when they finished talking. "My father-in-law is currently at home, waiting for us to get settled in Su City, then he will move there with us." Cai Wanwan had more to say, but Tang Yue's train was about to arrive. Tang Yue said, "Sister Cai, this is my Jing City phone number, let's keep in touch by phone." "Sure thing." Cai Wanwan happily said to Tang Yue, "Have a smooth journey." "Uh-huh." After saying goodbye to Cai Wanwan, there was a crowd boarding the train. Bai Qing followed behind Tang Yue and Mo Xiaolin, making sure not to let any of them fall behind. Tang Yue occasionally said, "Mom, slow down, we're not in a rush to board, there's still time, this is the starting station." "Alright, you be careful too." Mo Xiaolin had taken trains before, but with Tang Yue and Bai Qing guarding her from both sides, she safely got into the sleeper compartment. "Mom, which bunk will you sleep in? The lower bunk doesn't require climbing." Tang Yue asked. Mo Xiaolin glanced at the middle and upper bunks, thought for a moment, and then said, "I'll take the lower bunk." "Okay, Mom, there's food and drink here, I'll put it down here." Tang Yue put the snack bag on the lower bunk, then climbed up herself. She and Bai Qing exchanged glances, and Bai Qing automatically climbed up to the top bunk. "I'll sleep here." Bai Qing settled on the highest upper bunk, the small room's layout clear from top to bottom. On the train, although it was three women traveling together, even when going to the restroom, Bai Qing would accompany them, leaving one person in the compartment, which was very safe. The train, from boarding in the afternoon till the next day's dawn, kept moving, stopping intermittently, passing numerous stations. Mo Xiaolin couldn't sleep, thinking that Jing City was approaching, sitting in the compartment, looking out at the constantly receding scenery, filled with excitement and exhilaration. After so many years, she came to Jing City again. Various emotions flashed in Mo Xiaolin's eyes—excitement, exhilaration, nervousness, and a hint of anticipation. Tang Yue hadn't been sleeping well these past few days. On the train, however, she felt drowsy and mostly slept. As the station approached, she scooped up some water to wash her face. You can't take a bath or brush your teeth properly on the train, which was quite uncomfortable. She had even sweated in her sleep the previous night, and she couldn't wait to get home and change her clothes. Jing City Train Station. The three of them arrived and hadn't notified anyone, so they took a car straight back to the alley. Along the way, Tang Yue introduced everything, explaining what and where things were. "Mom, let's first go to where I live, take a bath, change clothes, then head to the fleet, is that okay?" Tang Yue asked. Mo Xiaolin said, "Good, after sitting on the train all day, I feel dirty." Although Mo Xiaolin was in her forties, she exuded an air of elegance and grace, even if rushing and travel-worn, she still appeared very classy. Even when alone at home, Mo Xiaolin always kept herself neat and clean. Meanwhile, as Mo Xiaolin was visiting for the first time and they had left in a hurry, the house wasn't very tidy. Tang Yue felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Mom, the house is a bit messy, you can stay in this room, next to mine, where you can take a bath." "Alright." Mo Xiaolin looked at the room and asked, "Is this the studio combined with living quarters you were talking about? Is it a bit farther to your school?" "Yes," Tang Yue nodded and replied, "Si Yu bought the house in Jianan Prefecture, right at the bustling Jinyang Street. Let's go there tomorrow; today, we head to the company first." It was only noon now, perfect timing to head to the company after lunch and still have time to make dinner. It had been a long time since she last saw Mo Siyu. Tang Yue thought to herself, even planning out what dishes to cook for dinner. Knowing that Tang Yue was going to the company, Bai Qing took the opportunity while Mo Xiaolin was taking a shower to say, "Xiao Yue, I'll also head out today." "Sister Qing," Tang Yue started to speak. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel·fıre·net Bai Qing cut her off: "Xiao Yue, don't ask about it now. I'll tell you when there's a chance. But really, it's something very simple." It was just cooking. Such a simple task that even a housemaid could do. But that guy, An Chong, specifically asked her to do it. "Sister Qing, if there's anything you need help with, just let me know," Tang Yue said earnestly. "Alright." Bai Qing packed up and left. After Tang Yue and Mo Xiaolin finished bathing, they gathered the things for Mo Siyu and bought vegetables at the market before heading to the company. Upon arriving at the company, they ran into Jiang Lan and others. Along with Jiang Lan, there were several sisters-in-law, including Ruan Xiuxiu. The group seemed to have some disagreements, tugging and pulling at each other. Seeing Tang Yue arrive, Ruan Xiuxiu let out her pent-up frustration on her, saying, "Tang Yue, are you deliberately making a fool of me?" Tang Yue was introducing the company to Mo Xiaolin when she unexpectedly saw Ruan Xiuxiu angrily accusing her, not understanding at all what she meant. Tang Yue looked puzzled at Ruan Xiuxiu and asked, "What?" "The doll factory, you said I could work there, but they simply won't let me do it," Ruan Xiuxiu fumed at Tang Yue. "Are you playing games with me on purpose? If you don't want me to work there, just say it. Why play games with people? Is playing with people fun for you?" Ruan Xiuxiu confronted her, looking as if Tang Yue owed her a huge debt. "Sister-in-law Han, the factory manager at the doll factory has said that anyone who wants to work can. Why would I deceive you? Is there some misunderstanding?" Tang Yue sort of understood what Ruan Xiuxiu was saying, but still felt confused. The factory manager of the doll factory was a good person; how could it be wrong with Ruan Xiuxiu? "You're lying," Ruan Xiuxiu said irritably. "As soon as I went, they asked me to pay some kind of deposit, but they didn't have to pay any deposit." Jiang Lan and the others listened to Ruan Xiuxiu's words and looked at each other, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say; indeed, they hadn't paid any deposit. "This lady, if my Xiao Yue is willing to help you, she definitely wouldn't deceive you. If you feel something is wrong, you can ask the factory manager to confront the issue," Mo Xiaolin said with a stern face, seeming to realize that helping her introduce the job had resulted in this attitude.
