Reborn in 1979: I Raised a Fortune with Four Daughters

Chapter 98 Ask Aunt Zhong for help taking care of Zhao Nana

As the tractor passed through Daguang Commune, Zhao Yuan spotted a familiar figure at the commune gate – it was Zhao Jianjun, who had come to the commune on business.

“Secretary Jianjun, shall we go home together? Come on up.”

Zhao Yuan greeted them warmly.

"Okay, I just got your land lease contract filed with the commune. And who is this?"

Zhao Jianjun climbed onto the tractor carriage and saw Hu Li sitting inside. He smiled and asked.

"This is Mr. Hu from the First Construction Team. He's here today to take a look at the site."

Zhao Yuan explained.

"Boss Hu, this is our village Party Secretary, Zhao Jianjun."

Zhao Yuan continued speaking at a high pitch.

Because the tractor was so loud, even though they were yelling, it was unclear whether the two people could understand them.

However, they nodded to each other as a greeting.

The tractor quickly arrived at the hillside behind the village.

The three of them looked around the plot of land, and Zhao Yuan explained his idea.

Hu Li listened attentively to Zhao Yuan's explanation and basically understood Zhao Yuan's needs.

The three of them then got on the tractor and headed to Zhaoyuan's house.

The car soon stopped in front of Zhaoyuan's house. Hu Li and Zhaoyuan jumped out of the car first, and then helped Zhaoyuan unload the things from the car.

After everything was finished, Zhaoyuan and Huli went to the main room together.

Zhao Yuan poured Hu Li a glass of water and then began to talk about the project.

Hu Li will be responsible for building the new pigsty for Zhao Yuan's family, while Zhao Yuan will need to pay the corresponding fees.

Zhao Yuan requested that, except for some key positions, all other odd jobs should be done by people from Zhaojia Village, and that Zhao Yuan provide the timber himself.

In addition, the two parties agreed on the commencement and completion dates, as well as some other details.

The two agreed on all the details and went back to the company to sign the contract.

Yu Hongmei helped Zhao Yuan prepare tea and snacks, and warmly welcomed Hu Li.

They ate snacks and chatted, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Soon after, Yu Hongmei brought Zhao Jieyuan over.

Zhao Yuan wanted Zhao Jieyuan to go to the county town with him, and bring the tractor back later. He would then take the villagers to the food factory for pre-job training the next morning.

The three men drove the tractor back to the city.

Zhao Yuan instructed Zhao Jieyuan to bring Lin Xuemei, Zhao Jianguo's wife Wu Caimei, Zhao Qiusheng's wife Qiao Caiyun, and Zhao Dahai's wife Li Hong along the next morning.

Zhao Jieyuan drove his tractor back to Zhaojia Village.

Zhao Yuan and Hu Li went to the First Construction Team and signed a contract.

They also agreed to hold the groundbreaking ceremony next Wednesday.

After signing the contract, Zhao Yuan returned to the food factory. Zhou Jiefang and Master Jiang had already prepared everything. The wood was neatly arranged in the woodshed, and even the staff's uniforms were all ready.

Zhao Yuan was very satisfied, after all, Chef Jiang had been a head chef before and had management experience.

Zhao Yuan looked around and felt that everything that needed to be prepared was ready, so he left everything else to Zhou Jiefang and Master Jiang.

Zhao Yuan returned home.

Aunt Zhong smiled broadly as she happily pushed Zhao Nana around, making "ah" and "oh" sounds to amuse the adorable little girl.

Uncle Zhong patiently taught Zhao Zhaodi and Zhao Zhaodi how to write with a brush, his face beaming with a kind smile that warmed everyone's hearts.

At this moment, Lin Fangfang was busy preparing the spice packets, her movements skillful and earnest.

The basket next to it was already filled with prepared spice packets, emitting an enticing aroma.

When she looked up and saw Zhao Yuan walk in, she immediately put down her work, smiled, and said:

"Brother Yuan, you're back. I'll go prepare lunch right away."

After saying that, she quickly put the basket aside and went to the kitchen.

After Zhao Yuan entered the room, he greeted Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong:

"Uncle Zhong, Aunt Zhong."

Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong responded in unison, "Yes, you're back."

Since Zhao Yuan brought the children here, Aunt Zhong often plays with Zhao Nana, Zhao Zhaodi, and Zhao Laidi.

The children always affectionately call Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong "Grandpa" and "Grandma," which makes Aunt Zhong feel the warmth of home.

In addition, Uncle Zhong took Aunt Zhong to see an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the county town and got some Chinese medicine for Aunt Zhong to take.

After this period of treatment, Aunt Zhong's condition improved, and she was no longer as easily agitated and anxious as before. Moreover, she no longer chased after Zhao Yuan calling him Fengzai.

"dad."

"dad."

Zhao Zhaodi and Zhao Zhaodi looked up and called out in unison.

"Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong are eating here together."

Zhao Yuan said.

"Zhaoyuan, Aunt Zhong and I are going home now."

Uncle Zhong prepared to get up and go home.

"Uncle Zhong, don't be so formal. There's something I'd like to discuss with you."

As Zhao Yuan spoke, he pulled Uncle Zhong into the main room.

Zhao Yuan moved a chair for Uncle Zhong to sit down.

Zhao Yuan handed a cigarette to Uncle Zhong and lit it for him.

"Uncle Zhong, the equipment at the food factory will be running tomorrow. It's so noisy over there during the day. Why don't you and Aunt Zhong come here for meals from now on? I've prepared a room for you two. You can stay here or go back to the food factory tonight, whichever you prefer."

Zhao Yuan took a satisfying drag of his cigarette and continued, "

Once the food factory starts operating, Lin Fangfang will have to live here permanently with Zhao Nana. I see that Aunt Zhong really likes Zhao Nana, so I'd like to ask Aunt Zhong to help look after her. I'll pay her 30 yuan a month, so Lin Fangfang can focus on taking care of the household chores. Uncle Zhong, what do you think?

"Oh dear, this is too much trouble for you. We are so grateful that you don't mind us and let Aunt Zhong get close to the child. We can't possibly ask for any payment. We'll just eat here and pay for the meals every month. Aunt Zhong is here during the day, and with Zhao Nana by her side, she looks much better and is in better spirits. We'll go back to the food factory to sleep at night so we can keep an eye on it for you."

Uncle Zhong chuckled and took a drag of his cigarette.

"You must pay her. I can't hire a professional OB-GYN like Aunt Zhong even if I pay her. As for the meal, we don't need to pay for the meal. There are so many people eating, we won't miss your two pairs of chopsticks."

Zhao Yuan said.

"Well, if you put it that way, I won't refuse. Aunt Zhong and I will take good care of Zhao Nana."

Uncle Zhong said.

"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong."

Zhao Yuan said with a smile, "Let me thank you on behalf of Lin Fangfang."

That evening, Uncle Zhong told Aunt Zhong about it. Aunt Zhong was overjoyed to hear it, and she was naturally extremely happy to be with Zhao Nana.

The next day, Zhao Yuan arrived at the food factory. All the employees were already in place. Zhou Jiefang had already gone to the meat processing plant to bring back the pig offal, pig heads, and pork.

Everyone is now standing in the courtyard for a meeting.

Master Jiang is explaining the hygiene and safety requirements for the work to everyone, emphasizing the need to pay attention to personal hygiene, wear work clothes and masks to work...
