Chapter 30 Preparing New Year’s Goods

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month. Unlike previous years, this year's winter is unusually cold, with a biting wind that seems to freeze the whole world.

Lu Tingyan got up early in the morning. After quickly completing a series of daily activities such as washing, she walked straight to the room where Su lived.

After entering the room, Lu Tingyan said to Su: "Mother, let's go to the town together today. The embroiderers have worked hard during this period. In addition to the dividends, we plan to give them two pounds of meat and five pounds of flour. What do you think?" Su nodded slightly to show her agreement and responded: "They have indeed worked hard. It's time to reward them. It just so happens that I also have some items to buy. Why not call Tianyuan to see if he needs anything."

After getting her mother's approval, Lu Tingyan ran out with joy to find Lu Tianyuan. After finding Lu Tianyuan, she excitedly shouted: "Brother Yuan, come with me to the town!" Hearing this, Lu Tianyuan readily agreed.

Afterwards, the three of them packed up a bit and set off for the town. Along the way, despite the biting cold wind, their hearts were filled with warmth and anticipation.

When they arrived in the town, Lu Tingyan, Su Shi and Lu Tianyuan walked to the meat stall together, ready to buy fifty kilograms of pork.

"Boss, how much is this pork?" Lu Tingyan asked.

"My lady, our pork is of excellent quality and only costs fifteen cents per pound~" the boss replied enthusiastically.

"Fifteen cents per pound? That's too expensive..." Lu Tingyan couldn't help but frowned.

"Look, young lady! This is fresh pork that was just slaughtered and shipped in this morning!" The boss quickly explained, holding up a piece of pork to show it, "This is good stuff, fifteen cents is definitely worth it!"

Lu Tingyan carefully examined the pork and it indeed looked very tender and delicious. After a little thought, she responded, "Boss, how about this? Thirteen cents a pound. I'll buy fifty pounds."

"Oh, girl, this price is too low! I'm almost losing money!" The boss looked embarrassed.

Seeing that the boss was a little hesitant, Lu Tingyan added: "Look, I bought so much at once, I will definitely come here often in the future, just like making friends!"

The boss hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "Okay! Since the girl is so straightforward, I'll sell it to you! Just consider it as making a long-term customer!"

After saying that, the boss quickly weighed fifty kilograms of pork, put it into a bag and handed it to Lu Tingyan, who quickly took it.

"Miss, the total is six hundred and fifty cents." The boss said with a smile.

After Lu Tingyan paid the money, Lu Tianyuan picked up the heavy pork bag and continued to move forward with Su. Next, they went to the flour stall and planned to buy 100 kilograms of flour.

"Boss, how much is this flour?" Lu Tingyan asked softly.

"Girl, this flour is ten cents a pound." The boss replied enthusiastically.

"Ten cents per pound? Boss, I want a hundred pounds. Can you pay one cent less per pound?" Lu Tingyan continued to ask with difficulty.

"Girl, this is already the cheapest price. Look at this flour, it's so white, it's definitely fine flour!" The boss explained hurriedly, picking up a handful of flour to show Lu Tingyan.

"Boss, please be kind and give me a little less..." Lu Tingyan still begged the boss without giving up.

"Well, okay! Since you are so sincere, I will sell it to you for nine cents per pound." After hesitating for a moment, the boss finally agreed.

Then, the boss skillfully weighed 100 kilograms of flour, carefully put it into the bag, and handed it to Lu Tingyan.

"Miss, the total is nine hundred coins." The boss said with a smile.

After taking the flour, Lu Tingyan seemed to remember something and asked again: "Boss, how much is one pound of rice? If I buy another 300 pounds, can you help me deliver the goods?" There was a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"Of course, girl, we provide this service," the boss replied enthusiastically.

"Then please send these items to Doctor Lu's home in Lujia Village, along with this piece of meat." You said to the boss with a smile.

"No problem! Don't worry, girl!" The boss agreed readily.

Lu Tianyuan silently watched your cute and playful appearance when bargaining with the boss, and a warm current surged in his heart. He secretly sighed, maybe this is the unique fun in the life of ordinary people!

At this time, Lu Tingyan took Su's arm affectionately and suggested in a tender voice: "Mother, Brother Yuan, let's go to Sister Wan'er's Ruyi Restaurant to have dinner before going home!"

"Okay! I'll follow your ideas all day long, since you're the little adult in our family!" Su touched Lu Tingyan's hair lovingly.

Hearing this, Lu Tingyan giggled happily like a happy little bird.

"Mom, let's go in and take a look." Lu Tingyan said.

Su nodded and said, "Okay."

Then Lu Tingyan, Su and Lu Tianyuan went to Ruyi Restaurant together, and Lin Wan'er happened to be there. When Lu Tingyan saw Lin Wan'er, she was delighted and hurried forward to greet her.

"Sister Wan'er, what a coincidence, you are here too." Lu Tingyan said with a smile.

When Lin Wan'er saw Lu Tingyan and the others, her face was filled with a bright smile: "Oh my, that's right, what a coincidence! Sister Yan'er, are you guys coming here for dinner?"

Lu Tingyan nodded slightly to show her agreement: "Yeah." Then she raised her head, looked at Lin Wan'er, and asked softly: "Then what is Sister Wan'er doing here?"

Lin Wan'er smiled slightly and explained, "I came here just to inspect the situation of the restaurant." Then she changed the subject and said, "Oh, by the way, Sister Yan'er, I actually have something I want to discuss with you."

Hearing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in Lu Tingyan's eyes, and she quickly asked, "Sister Wan'er, what's the matter?" There was a hint of urgency in her voice.

Lin Wan'er waved her hand, signaling that they should not be anxious, and then lowered her voice and said, "Let's go into the private room and talk in detail." She turned around and instructed the waiter, "Waiter, quickly arrange an elegant private room for my sister Yan'er, and bring up a few of their signature dishes and put them on my bill."

Upon hearing this, the waiter hurriedly responded and moved quickly and efficiently.

Seeing this, Lu Tingyan smiled a little embarrassedly and said coquettishly: "Sister Wan'er, you are so polite that I am embarrassed to come here to eat again in the future! Otherwise, just deduct the cost of this meal from my dividends."

How could Lin Wan'er not understand her thoughts? She nodded and said, "I know! Then I'll give you a discount and deduct it from the dividends."

"Okay! Yan'er, Wan'er, let's go in first!" Su said with a smile.

"Aunt Su, I'm so sorry. I was so busy just now that I forgot. Please come in!" Lin Wan'er smiled apologetically, stepped aside to invite Su into the private room, and closed the door.

As soon as you sat down, you couldn't wait to ask, "Sister Wan'er, what happened? Is there something wrong with the embroidery workshop?"

"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with the embroidery workshop. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I thought of giving our employees a few days off so that everyone can have time to go home and spend time with their families, rest and adjust." Lin Wan'er explained gently, her eyes revealing her concern for the employees, "What do you think of this idea?"

After hearing this, Lu Tingyan nodded in agreement, then thought carefully for a moment and replied, "Sister Wan'er, I actually wanted to discuss this with you."

"That's great. Since we both think alike, let's just settle this." Lin Wan'er clapped her hands happily and then asked a new question. "Also, the business at the embroidery workshop is pretty good this year. I'm planning to prepare some New Year's goods for the workers as a reward, but I don't know what kind of things to choose. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Lu Tingyan thought for a moment and suggested: "Why not distribute some daily necessities such as rice, flour, oil and meat? This is both practical and considerate. Moreover, during the Chinese New Year, the employees can use these ingredients to prepare a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, and the whole family can have a happy New Year."

"Well, this is indeed a good idea!" Lin Wan'er was very satisfied with it and nodded in praise. "Then let's do as you say."

Su and Lu Tianyuan listened to the conversation between the two and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that these two girls were so young but already had such business acumen.

"Sister Tingyan, what are you busy with recently?" Lin Wan'er asked.

"I want to draw some pictures about the New Year recently." Lu Tingyan said softly with a smile on her face, revealing a hint of excitement in her words, "I will give them to the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop to embroider later."

"Oh, Sister Yan'er! It sounds great. What new and creative ideas will you have this time?" Lin Wan'er looked at her in surprise, with curiosity gleaming in her eyes.

Lu Tingyan smiled mischievously and deliberately kept the secret: "Hehe, this... keep it secret for now~"

Seeing this, Lin Wan'er frowned slightly and said coquettishly: "Oh my, I have to keep it a secret from my sister."

Lu Tingyan just smiled and didn't say anything else.

In this way, several people enjoyed the food and chatted happily, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Time passed quietly in the laughter and joy, and before they knew it, a whole hour had passed.

At this time, Su looked at the sky outside the window and reminded: "Okay, it's getting late, we should go back."

"Yes, it's time to go." Lu Tingyan agreed and stood up.

"Then let's make an appointment next time." Lin Wan'er also stood up and said.

"Yeah, okay, let's get together next time." Lu Tingyan nodded in response.

Afterwards, the group sorted out their clothes and slowly walked out of Ruyi Restaurant.
