Chapter 381: Business Was Booming

Yun Qiao had already signed up for the military enlistment process. Tomorrow, he would board the train that had been arranged for him to rush to the headquarters to attend the medical examination. Today, he would come back to visit his parents again, and then pack up some useful luggage.

Unfortunately, for the sake of his dream of being a soldier, he might not be able to continue celebrating the new year at home this year! Yun Qiao sighed in his heart.

“Look at you, you’re not as sensible as your son.”

Liu Fang mocked him again, and then quickly cooperated with Uncle Niu to load the things that they were going to take away into the ox cart.

Liu Fang wanted to take advantage of the time before dark to transport these things to the city, so she no longer cared about Ma Yan’s eyes that seemed to be able to spew fire.

…

As the days approached the end of the year, the business of the new firewood shop opened by Yung Gang’s family was still very good.

Just as Liu Fang said, one could not be unlucky all the time. After the bad luck passed, there would still be some good luck.

The couple collected firewood from the countryside that the farmers had harvested in the mountains and sold it to the residents of the county. It was winter now, so there was a lot of demand for firewood. Moreover, it was almost the new year. Many people were afraid that the shop would close down, so they had stocked up a batch of firewood in advance.

The couple had just started their business, so the firewood was sold at a very cheap price. Although the location of this shop was a little remote, word spread quickly. Soon, many residents in the vicinity came to this shop to buy firewood. As a result, the firewood they bought from the farmers every day was always sold out. The husband and wife made a small fortune before the end of the year.

“I told you. It’s not that our family doesn’t have that kind of luck. It’s just that we lacked the initial capital. Now our family can live a prosperous life. After the New Year, the business of this shop will develop again. We’ll be like that Boss Jing, opening a few more chain stores and expanding our family’s business.”

Liu Fang was fantasizing about a beautiful future, but after a few days, she received bad news.

“Mrs. Yun, I sent you the last cart of firewood today, but how many days will your shop be closed?”

Uncle Niu’s rough voice sounded in the firewood shop.

“What’s wrong, Uncle Niu? If you still want to come here for business during the New Year, we can give you a raise. Don’t say that you won’t do it just because you don’t want to?!”

Seeing that the business in the shop was so good, Liu Fang naturally did not mind giving Uncle Niu, who brought firewood here every day, a few more yuan in salary.

“It’s not my problem. I’m not so greedy.” Uncle Niu shook his head.

“Is that because every family is celebrating the New Year now, so no one comes out to gather firewood?”

Liu Fang was always more agitated than Uncle Niu. He was like an old yellow ox, doing things slowly. Until now, he had not said why they should take a break, on the contrary, Liu Fang had been holding onto this topic and asking a lot of questions.

“No, no. Mrs. Yun, listen to what I have to say.” Uncle Niu shook his head and waved his hand. He looked very agitated.

“It’s your family’s Old Madam who is sick. I am here to pass your second sister-in-law’s words. I am here to inform your family and Yun Shan’s family to quickly go home to see the Old Madam.”

Uncle Niu finally said what he wanted to say.

“I have already informed Yun Shan’s family. They should be on their way back now. You two husband and wife should also pack up and take this ox cart of mine to go back later.”

The Old Madam was sick?!

The Old Madam’s physique had always been strong. How could she suddenly get sick? The Old Master had just been treated, and now they would have to treat the Old Madam! The condition of Yun Gang’s family was pretty good now. They would not ask their family to pay the medical fees again, would they?!

Liu Fang was not concerned about the Old Madam’s condition first. Instead, she thought about whether she would cause a great loss of money again?!

However, Yun Gang looked very anxious. Liu Fang could only pretend to be a very virtuous daughter-in-law and followed Yun Shan’s family back to the old house by ox cart.
