Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

On the way back, both Liang Ming and his son had smiles on their faces.

Liang Min was happy because her younger sister was finally free from suffering and would no longer have to endure hardship in the Chen family.

Liang Ming was happy because he had made up for the regret of his previous life and prevented his aunt from being forced to death by the Chen family.

"Brother, Xiaoming, I'll stay home for two days at most. Once I find a job in the city, I'll move out."

Liang Juan looked around at her nephew's diesel tricycle, sighed, and then slowly spoke.

Both Liang Ming and his son were taken aback upon hearing this.

"Little sister, why did you move out? I brought you back so that you wouldn't be bullied outside anymore."

Liang Min spoke up.

“Yes, Auntie, let’s go home,” Liang Ming chimed in.

"No, I can't let you suffer," Liang Juan said, shaking her head.

“We’re all family, why talk about harming each other?” Liang Min said.

"Brother, I'm divorced. It'll ruin my reputation if word gets out!"

Liang Juan hesitated and said:

"Besides, Xiaoming hasn't gotten married yet, and with me, his divorced aunt, at home, no matchmaker is willing to come to our door."

"You've already helped me a lot, I can't cause you any more trouble."

Upon hearing that this was the reason Liang Juan refused to go home, Liang Ming and his father exchanged a glance and both laughed.

"Brother, Xiaoming, what are you laughing at?"

Liang Juan asked, puzzled.

"Let Xiaoming tell you about this."

Liang Min pointed at Liang Ming and said to her younger sister.

“Aunt, if we’re talking about reputation, it was already bad when I broke off my engagement with Song Mei from the next village.”

"But later I started doing business and made money, and then a lot of matchmakers came to my door, wanting to introduce girls to me."

Liang Ming smiled and recounted in detail to Liang Juan what had happened to him during this period.

After hearing this, Liang Juan showed a look of surprise on her face.

She hadn't expected her nephew to have gone through so much recently, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"Xiaoming, you must be very tired lately."

Hearing his aunt's words, Liang Ming felt a warmth in his heart and shook his head, saying, "Auntie, I'm not tired!"

"I feel very happy that I was able to break off my engagement with someone I didn't like, make money, and improve my family's living conditions."

At this point, he looked at Liang Juan and added, "Aunt, I'm telling you this to tell you that other people's opinions don't matter; what matters most is that you're happy."

"As long as we become good enough, all the rumors will fall apart on their own."

Upon hearing Liang Ming's words, Liang Juan's face showed a thoughtful expression.

After a long while, Liang Juan finally raised her head, her eyes regaining their light, and said:

"Xiaoming, I understand what you mean. From today onwards, I'm going to be myself again."

After seeing his aunt and understanding the situation, Liang Ming smiled.

As they were talking, the Shuangfeng brand tricycle had already returned to the Liang family's courtyard.

In the courtyard, the small table was already filled with farm-style stir-fries, and the fragrant rice emitted an irresistible aroma.

When Li Lan saw Liang Ming and the others return, she quickly stood up:

"Why are you so late? The food is almost cold."

"I was helping Xiaojuan pack her luggage, which took up a little time," Liang Min said with an embarrassed smile.

“Sister-in-law…” Liang Juan’s face showed a hint of nervousness when she saw Li Lan.

She was, after all, the younger sister-in-law who had married out, and now that she was divorced and returning to her parents' home, she didn't know if her sister-in-law would welcome her.

"Xiao Juan is back? Is the divorce over?"

"That's great. From now on, you can stay at home without worry. As long as your sister-in-law has something to eat, you'll never go hungry."

"Xiaojuan, let me tell you, Xiaoming is doing really well now. He's made a lot of money in business and is about to build a Western-style house. You'll be living with us then..."

Li Lan held Liang Juan's hand and kept talking, very enthusiastically.

Sensing the worry and joy in her sister-in-law's words, Liang Juan's tense emotions gradually eased.

"Sister-in-law, I'll take care of all the housework from now on, I..." Liang Juan said, her voice choked with emotion.

"Nonsense, we're all family. We all do the housework together. There's no such thing as you doing one thing and me doing another."

Li Lan patted Liang Juan on the shoulder and jokingly scolded her.

"Mom, Auntie, let's have dinner first, I'm starving."

Seeing that the two were about to argue over housework, Liang Ming quickly changed the subject and said...

“Yes, let’s eat first,” Liang Min agreed.

The family sat around the dining table in the courtyard, eating their meal.

Perhaps it was because she saw her younger sister had returned, Liang Min happily took out her homemade rice wine and drank a few more cups.

Liang Jing kept putting food on her aunt Liang Juan's plate, and the family seemed to have returned to the way they used to be.

"Auntie, what are your plans for the future? Are you planning to go to the city to find a job, or start your own small business?"

After several rounds of drinks and a meal, Liang Ming spoke up and asked Liang Juan a question.

"Xiaoming, why are you asking this? Your aunt just got home, let her rest for a while first."

Li Lan glared at her son and said irritably.

My sister-in-law has suffered so much in the Chen family over the years. Now that she's finally home, she should rest first.

Liang Min shared the same idea.

Anyway, the family isn't short of food for my younger sister.

"Brother, sister-in-law, even if Xiaoming didn't ask, I would still tell him."

Liang Juan waved her hand, indicating that it was alright, and then expressed her thoughts:

"Actually, when I was with the Chen family, I often thought about making money."

"I was the one who suggested raising ducks at their house. Chen Kun and his mother aren't good at housework, so I set up the duck shed myself."

"As it turns out, the ducks I raised did indeed make a lot of money."

Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Liang asked in unison:

"Xiaojuan, so you're planning to continue raising ducks?"

Their family does have two mu of private land, which Liang Juan could use to raise ducks without any problem.

To everyone's surprise, Liang Juan shook her head and said, "Raising ducks can make some money, but I'm always covered in filth and stench. I don't plan to live that kind of life anymore."

"I want to go to the city and start a small business."

Both Liang Min and his wife agreed with Liang Juan's idea.

"Auntie, have you decided what kind of business you want to do?"

Liang Ming turned to Liang Juan and asked.

"If you haven't thought it through, you can open a braised duck shop with me."

"A braised duck shop?" Upon hearing Liang Ming's words, Liang Juan's face showed a hint of doubt.

"Auntie, you have no idea, my brother earned his first pot of gold by selling braised duck at a street stall..."

Liang Jing, who was standing to the side, smiled and explained in detail Liang Ming's business of selling braised duck.

"Xiao Ming, I didn't expect your braised duck business to grow so big that you even opened a braised duck shop in the city?!"

Liang Juan was also somewhat surprised and said.

“Auntie, my braised duck shop is doing quite well. The shop at the county high school alone brings in over a thousand yuan every day.”

Liang Ming said with a smile:

"If you also want to open a braised duck shop, I can let you join the franchise."
