Rebirth and making money first

Chapter 112: The Aftermath of the Wedding

With the wedding over, guests began bidding farewell to the newlyweds and their families yesterday. Zhang Jing enthusiastically loaded her cousin's car with cigarettes, alcohol, and fruit, and Zhang Zhi and her family prepared to return with her uncle. At that moment, Zhang Xiaobing suggested returning to Huizhou to check on his shop.

When my mother heard about this, she immediately wanted to go with them. Seeing this, Zhang Jing simply asked them to go back first, as she still had some follow-up matters to deal with.

Just as my mother was about to leave, she handed a full 100,000 yuan in cash to Zhang Jing and told her that she would be back in two days.

Uncle Zhang had originally planned to host a private dinner for Zhang Jing's mother, but when he learned that she was going to Huizhou to look at a shop, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: he seemed to have a shop in Huizhou as well, and he had never checked it out.

Uncle Zhang became anxious and asked Director Chen if he had been there. However, the answer was also no. They immediately called the other buyers of the shop. Sadly, everyone was so busy with work that they only remembered to make their payments on time and completely neglected to check the shop in person.

Now, the time for rest was gone. After some communication and confirming the number of people, a self-driving car team was quickly formed and headed straight for Huizhou Yiwu Small Commodity City.

Although Zhang Jing was unable to participate in the operation in person, she knew that the business must be booming now. At the same time, Zhang Yongle was captured by his father to act as a driver and take him to check out the shops.

Zhang Jing asked Uncle Zhang to look over her two shops and inquire about their selling prices. He wanted to see if they could recoup their costs. If possible, he'd also like to take some photos and show them to her. Uncle Zhang assured Zhang Jing that he would see to it.

When Achen's father heard about this, he was also very interested and decided to go along, treating it as a trip. Furthermore, Achen's mother, brother, and grandfather also wanted to go, saying they wanted to visit West Lake.

Zhang Jing admired their energy and reluctantly accepted the situation. She began to slowly work on the aftermath of the wedding banquet. Suddenly, she remembered that Ah Chen had also been there when they were looking at shops.

"So, who did he go with?" Zhang Jing wondered to herself. She called Achen over and asked, "Achen, do you remember who you went with when you took the bus to Huizhou that year?" Achen frowned, trying to recall the past.

After a long time, he suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I remember now, I went there with my uncle." Zhang Jing's eyes lit up and continued to ask, "Did your uncle buy a shop?" Achen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

However, he immediately added, "But later, my dad took grandpa there again and seemed to buy something, but I don't know what it was." Hearing this, Zhang Jing couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, this family is truly hidden talent! I thought they were just an ordinary family, but I didn't expect them to be so powerful. I'm really stupid."

As for whether her mother would return with the convoy, Zhang Jing was too lazy to ask. She decided to let everyone deal with it on their own. It would be better for both families if they reduced their interactions. This way, life might become more relaxed and comfortable.

Zhang Jing hadn't expected that in Huizhou, not only did they visit shops but they also toured West Lake. Mom and Zhang Xiaobing also returned with their car. Uncle Zhang and his son, Grandpa, Achen's family, and Mom were so friendly, like old friends, that Zhang Jing's eyes nearly popped out.

After Mom and Zhang Xiaobing finished showering, Zhang Jing curiously asked Mom what had happened. "What's that look on your face? Your mom spent a few years in Huizhou when she was young, right? She was quite capable of greeting your godfather, your father-in-law, and the others. Your cousin also came along, and even went to your second uncle's house to meet his parents."

Zhang Jing said, "I'm impressed! You really don't feel tired at all? By the way, how's the store going?"

Speaking of shops, Zhang Xiaobing also came over to praise, "Sister, you have a good eye! You don't know, it's packed with people. I heard it's been like this for the past few years since you opened, and your two shops are the most crowded. Mine is okay too. The second one is okay too. I really regret not buying enough. The mortgage will be paid off by the end of the year, and we can start collecting rent next year. I won't have to work anymore, I can just sit back and enjoy my retirement."

When my mother heard this, she flew into a rage. "What family conditions? Don't you have any idea of ​​what you're dealing with? You're still thinking about just sitting back and relaxing? Even after retirement, I can't relax and am busy making money. Don't even think about it! Don't forget, you still have a son to support!"

Zhang Xiaobing muttered, "I know, I know! I just said it casually, and you kept nagging me. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have gotten married!"

When my mother heard this, she was furious: "You still want to be single forever? You really have no ambition at all. I'm already in Shenzhen, you can go back to Yunnan! Go and be with your wife and children. I will go back to Northeast China by myself and come back when Xiaojing is about to give birth."

Zhang Xiaobing thought this was too much trouble, so he suggested, "Then why are you going through all this trouble? Why don't you just wait until my sister has given birth and finished her confinement, and then go back to Northeast China."

My mother firmly objected: "How can that be possible? I'm worried about leaving my family for so long. There's still more than half a year left, so there's still time. Don't give me any rash advice!"

At this time, Zhang Jing said, "Mom, since you've finally come here, why don't you stay a while longer? I'll also take some time off and accompany you around."

However, the old lady refused to accept this suggestion: "Don't you know what's going on? I don't need you to accompany me. Hurry up and book a ticket for me. I have to go home early too." Zhang Jing said that booking tickets is not difficult, but it is necessary to determine how many tickets to book and whether Zhang Xiaobing also wants to go back with them.

Zhang Xiaobing said, "I brought the old lady here to take care of her after she's been pregnant, so I must be responsible for sending her back. Don't worry about booking two tickets, I'll take care of them. I'll take the old lady out for a few days."

The next morning, Zhang Jing and her husband left for work. They chatted as they walked, enjoying a rare moment of time together. During this time, Zhang Jing called her mother and told her that she and her husband were at work. She told her not to worry and to cook whatever she wanted. The refrigerator was fully stocked, and there was a vegetable market downstairs where she could buy anything. Her mother acknowledged her and urged her to work hard.

After get off work, Zhang Jing returned home to find her mother already prepared dinner. The family sat together, enjoying the meal and chatting in a harmonious atmosphere. After dinner, Zhang Jing suggested to her mother that they deposit the money in the bank. Her mother readily agreed and gave her her bank account number. Zhang Jing promised to help with the deposit as soon as possible and suggested that her mother put the money in a fixed-term deposit to earn higher interest.

Before bed, Zhang Jing's mother reiterated her pregnancy precautions, her words filled with concern and worry. Zhang Jing comforted her mother, saying she would take care of herself and appreciated her concern. She also mentioned that her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and grandfather all lived in the same neighborhood and would help take care of her if anything happened.

However, her mother couldn't help but complain, "I don't know whether it's good or bad for you to find a husband like this? We won't tell anyone in our hometown, so you must not bring him home! I, your mother, can't afford to lose face." Zhang Jing listened silently without responding.

The mother continued, "Would I harm you? Although his family is well off, you still have to worry about him. Tomorrow, let your brother sleep in the living room, and I'll move into that room. You two should live together, so don't be estranged."

"Mom, you won't be staying here for a few days, so don't bother. After you leave, we can live together again." Zhang Jing objected.

The old lady refused and said, "Listen to me. If that fool gets stuck in a dead end, he'll need someone to coax him." Zhang Jing had no choice but to agree.

The next day, Zhang Xiaobing was about to see Zhang Jing and her husband off, so he took his mother on a shopping spree. Zhang Jing gave him 5000 yuan, asking him not to let his mother down or tire her out. Seeing the money, Zhang Xiaobing was immediately energized, patting his chest and promising to take good care of his mother.

Zhang Jing took advantage of her lunch break to deposit 10 yuan into her mother's bank account. Feeling relieved, she also deposited another 10 yuan from the gifts and betrothal gifts into her own account. She had considered investing in the stock market, but then she wondered if Achen had any security. She decided to ask her grandfather about Achen's specific situation before making any plans.

I don't know if I can buy insurance for Achen's situation. I'm such a worrier. What if Grandpa suspects me of plotting to kill Achen? I'll never know. Just thinking about it makes me sigh.

After a day of fun, my mom kept complaining about being tired and said she didn't want to go shopping anymore. I chased Zhang Xiaobing to book a ticket, but he had booked a ticket for the day after tomorrow, which was a sleeper berth. We rested for two days and prepared to board the train.

Achen's grandparents also invited Zhang Jing's mother to their home for dinner, and Zhang Jing also invited Uncle Zhang's family to dinner. After sending her mother and Zhang Xiaobing to the car, Zhang Jing took two days off to rest.

So tired! Worried, Zhang Jing's mother-in-law took her to see a doctor again, who prescribed some medication to maintain the pregnancy. She said excessive fatigue could affect fetal development, and she needed to get more rest.

The whole family no longer dared to let Zhang Jing work hard, and even prepared breakfast and dinner for Zhang Jing and her husband.

Zhang Jing welcomed the time of pregnancy.
