Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 140 Daily Life in Hutong 70 (38)
Time flies, time passes like a shuttle.
Shen Yao had a system plug-in, so she didn't encounter any difficulties when giving birth to this child.
The only difficulty was that in order for her to take care of the baby and for Xie Ci'an to be able to take care of her with peace of mind, both of them had to put their studies on hold for a year.
Among them, Shen Yao postponed his doctoral graduation, while Xie Ci'an postponed his further studies.
But just one year is not a big problem for the two of them.
……
1991, late spring and early summer
"Meimei, Manman, the two of you should run slower. Be careful not to fall."
The two children responded and ran happily in front, while Shen Yao, who fell behind with her schoolbag in her hands, couldn't help sighing.
Oops
Sure enough, as she gets older, Shen Yao still feels overwhelmed in taking care of the children over the past two years, even with help from others.
Meimei and Manman were the nicknames of the boy and girl twins that Shen Yao gave birth to later.
One is called Xie Weishu and the other is called Xie Weixi.
Now he is six years old, smart and old enough to go to school.
This time, Shen Yao sent the two of them back to Fengshou Hutong because she needed to go on a business trip to the southwest, which was related to herbal medicine cultivation.
After graduating from the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shen Yao did not stay on to teach or enter the system. Instead, he opened a herbal medicine planting base.
It is to select some places suitable for herbal medicine cultivation across the country and cooperate with local people.
She is also responsible for recycling the produced medicinal materials and selling them in the Chinese medicine store that is about to open.
We also gained some inspiration from the industrial reform in Pingshan Town.
Shen Yao feels that in terms of traditional Chinese medicine, firmly grasping the entire process from raw material production to specific finished products is a very cost-effective investment. At least there is no need to worry about the common problem of unstable efficacy of herbal medicines.
"How long will this business trip take? I need to go to Guangzhou soon."
The older she gets, the more energetic Tian Na looks.
Especially her neat black hair, no one would think that Tian Na is already in her seventies, but is heading towards eighty.
"Not long, about a week to go back and forth." Shen Yao glanced at the two little ones playing in the yard and explained that Xie Ci'an was in the desert and Tuantuan and Yuanyuan were also settled in the northwest. "I'm afraid they won't be back until autumn this year."
There's no way, the three of them are scientific researchers, and they are extremely smart geniuses.
Some national tasks require their contributions, and Shen Yao cannot possibly stop them in this regard.
Tian Na waved her hand and said, "Let them be busy. It is their duty to do things for the country.
It's okay. If you can't come back, I'll postpone my trip to Guangzhou. I'm just going there to discuss business, so a day earlier or later won't make a difference."
After Tian Na finished speaking, she pointed to the busy courtyard where no one was seen.
"It's good to be busy. Every household has made money, and even people talk to each other more politely.
The factory has not been profitable in recent years, but fortunately we still have our own business.”
Otherwise, it would cost a lot for their whole family even if they had to eat coarse food.
State-owned factories have been affected by market shocks and most of them are now unable to make ends meet.
Fengshou Hutong is not so bad because the Xie family is brave and every household around them has been positively affected.
Although they did not have the courage like the Zhao family to quit their factory jobs and go out to work on their own, they could still make some money by selling the cheap items from the Xie family.
Don't underestimate these things. The whole country has only been developed for a few years. Earning an extra hundred or eighty yuan a month can ensure you live a good life.
For Beijing in the 1990s, the cost of living was high, but it was not even a fraction of what it would be in the future.
Shen Yao nodded in agreement, "Yes, thanks to mom's foresight."
After praising Tian Na, Shen Yao also mentioned Wu Zhaodi and Wang Yanyan.
These two people are also old people working in the factory. The situation in the machinery factory and the steel rolling mill is just about the same.
"My eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law told me that they wanted to find someone to make some arrangements first, and they went to the south to check the situation."
After all, in this era, many people go into business, and some people are afraid of accidents and worried that they will not end up well, so they want to leave a way out for themselves and make preparations for both situations.
Wu Zhaodi and Wang Yanyan have their own mother-in-law as a positive example, and have experienced the booming opening of their own clothing store and the establishment of a clothing factory, so they don't have to worry about not having ways to make money. What they are most worried about at the moment is the instability of their income.
Look, I dare to tell my sister-in-law Shen Yao, but I don’t dare to tell my mother-in-law Tian Na.
When Shen Yao came back this time, she also brought tasks for her two sisters-in-law.
Tian Na: ...
Tian Na muttered that Wu Zhaodi and Wang Yanyan were timid and dared to speak but not to act.
"Let them go and see for themselves. There is no future for them to hang around in the factory all day."
Because these two people are not doing technical jobs, what good will it matter even if they do it for a lifetime.
Tian Na can earn back the money she put in with interest in just one month.
Sighing deeply, Tian Na whispered to Shen Yao not to learn this, "Your situation is different from theirs. You are a person who can use your brain, while they can only act recklessly."
Although you can make money by working recklessly, it is all hard-earned money.
Tian Na didn't think her youngest son's family was short of money. She bought some popular flavor enhancer powder and found it tasted exactly the same as the powder in the glass bottle her youngest daughter-in-law bought.
As a fashionable boss who has successfully opened a clothing factory and put it on the right track, and who has also hired designers to help design original clothing, Tian Na understands the meaning of copyright and patents.
Just like this flavor enhancer powder, although she couldn't guess how much profit her daughter-in-law got from it, but as long as she saw the popularity of the flavor enhancer powder, she knew that the money was more than enough and more than enough to spend.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat in the courtyard and had a brief chat. Then Shen Yao stood up, waved to Meimei Manman, and left alone.
Happy reunion
This is Shen Yao's blessing for herself in this life, and also her earnest expectation for her four children.
"Meimei, Manman, come back for dinner, stay at grandma's house today."
Tian Na stood up and called the two children over, then in the children's unique childish voice, she smiled and promised to get up early tomorrow to go out for dinner.
In 91, there were already many private snack stands opened outside in Beijing.
As a well-known wealthy woman in Fengshou Hutong, Tian Na enjoys herself to the fullest on a daily basis.
If buying a four-wheeled car wasn't too high-profile, Tian Na would have insisted on getting a modern scooter.
"If nothing else, it looks impressive when it's open, right?"
Tian Na made no secret of the fact that she wanted to go out and enjoy herself once she earned money.
Life is a life, no matter how you live it is a life. Tian Na worked hard for her family in the first half of her life, and now she has such an experience in her old age. It is God's reward to her because she saw that her previous life was too hard.
Tian Na didn't mind entrusting her thoughts to the still young Meimei and Manman, with a smile on her face, and the three of them walked into the main courtyard.
……
On the other side, Shen Yao, who had already returned to her residence, was busy packing her luggage to take with her.
This time she is going to the southwest, with her main destinations being Sichuan Province and Qinghai City. If she has enough time, she can also visit Guizhou Province and Yunnan Province.
The eldest sister in the dormitory, Xu Huixin, lives in Sichuan Province. There are many wild and artificially cultivated medicinal herbs around. Through correspondence in the past two years, Shen Yao learned that she had moved to the provincial capital.
This time when Shen Yao went to Sichuan Province first, she took Xu Huixin into consideration.
Soon, a large luggage bag was packed.
Shen Yao brought a few sets of long-sleeved shirts and long pants, and took some books that could only be bought in Beijing. She sat on the edge of the bed and let out a breath, then ran to the desk and lay down to write a letter.
None of the three people in the family knew that she had gone out, but the necessary communication had to take place.
I simply wrote in the letter about my recent events and what I would be busy with in the future.
Shen Yao wrote three copies of the letter and sealed them in envelopes.
Just wait until tomorrow morning and deliver it to the post office on her way to the train station.
Wash up, change clothes, turn off the lights and go to bed.
When Shen Yao opened her eyes again, it was already early morning of the next day.
I got up, picked up my luggage bag, locked the door and left home.
Shen Yao had breakfast at a stall outside before taking a taxi directly to the train station.
At the train station, there were a few young people who were on this business trip with Shen Yao.
They are all graduates from the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and joined Shen Yao's company right after graduation.
Even though this was working for a private company, as their direct senior, Shen Yao not only provided free accommodation, but also offered a high salary plus various travel subsidies, which was much better than working in a hospital or an institutional setting.
"Sister Yao" "Sister Yao"
There were three men and two women, each carrying their own luggage for going out.
Shen Yao greeted with a smile, "Come over, have you eaten yet?"
"I ate, I ate."
“Bought steamed buns on the road”
"The tea eggs next to it are delicious, I brought a few with me."
"..."
The chattering and enthusiasm unique to young people made Shen Yao laugh heartily.
No wonder we always bring young people with us on business trips; their vitality is very soothing.
A group of six people got on the train and sat together to discuss the work content of this trip to the southwest.
"Xiao Xu, you and Xiao Xu are in a group; Hua Ting, you and Cheng Cheng are in a group; Xiao Yu, you are in a group by yourself for the time being.
We have a lot of places to visit this time, and if the tasks are not reduced, time is tight, so we need to visit all the places marked above within a week."
Shen Yao never talks nonsense, she likes to be straightforward, which not only improves everyone's work efficiency, but also reduces unnecessary social interactions.
We are all workers who come out to support our families, and as a leader, Shen Yao must set an example.
It took about half an hour, and Shen Yao's announcement of the end made the five people breathe a sigh of relief.
The lively Hua Ting patted his chest in a funny way and said, "I'll go get some hot water."
"I'll go with you and buy some snacks. How can we take the train without snacks?" Cheng Cheng replied, and the two little sisters walked hand in hand towards the dining car.
Shen Yao looked at the remaining three boys and said, "Go and have a look at what you want to eat.
It’s not a big problem to travel by train during the day, just go there and come back as quickly as you can.”
After saying this, the other three also left their seats eager to try.
They were all newlyweds travelling far away for the first time, and although the train journey would take several days, it did not stop them from being excited.
But this excitement did not last long. After spending a night on the train, even the most lively Huating looked listless.
Shen Yao found it funny, thinking that it was their first time to go on such a long business trip, so she bought some snacks for them and told them about her experience of taking the train in a leisurely tone.
I have to say, the train ride at this time is much more relaxing than it was before.
Even when you rest at night, you don’t need to hold your luggage tightly, at least you can sleep well.
Hua Ting was stunned by what he heard, and responded with Cheng Cheng's words, turning the science popularization event into a joke venue.
The other three boys were quite good at supporting the actor and didn't let the conversation fall by the wayside the whole time.
Shen Yao: ...I am convinced
It took several days to take the train, but once we landed, we were refreshed.
Shen Yao took them to finish their business first, and then gave them half a day off to go shopping.
“You can buy some local specialties for your family and go meet up with some good friends.
But you must come back as soon as possible when the time comes, and I will call out the names of everyone one by one."
After giving their instructions, Shen Yao waved her hand and told them to do what they were supposed to do.
She did not rest in the guesthouse, but packed up the books she brought and went to meet Xu Huixin, who had specially asked for leave.
"It's been ten years since we last met. You haven't changed much in appearance."
Xu Huixin's short hair grew long and was tied into a ponytail at the back.
With a still bright smile on her face, Xu Huixin, as the host, treated Shen Yao to a sumptuous lunch.
Shen Yaoguang drank several glasses of plain water, a spicy dish unique to Sichuan Province.
"The climate here is quite humid, which is very different from Beijing. If you eat more chili peppers, your body will feel much better."
Shen Yao waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no," her body couldn't handle spicy food, it would choke her throat.
Xu Huixin smiled particularly happily, probably because she saw her good friend's embarrassment, she started to explain that she couldn't get used to the chili here at first.
She is a genuine coastal person. If it weren't for the educated youth going to the countryside program, where she came here and married her current husband and had three lovely children, she would definitely have returned to her hometown to live.
"It's still too far. The last time I went home, my parents were already old and I couldn't bear to leave."
There were some things Xu Huixin couldn't tell her family, but she had a good relationship with Shen Yao, and they could even say many things to each other from the bottom of their hearts.
The way people get along with each other is so strange. For example, Xu Huixin never thought that Shen Yao would come here, nor did she think that Shen Yao would poach her.
what?
Shen Yao looked serious, thinking that Xu Huixin might not have a comprehensive understanding of her own abilities.
"What are you surprised about? Regardless of your academic qualifications or years of experience, it's normal for me to poach you.
The herbal medicine business has a long cycle and requires a lot of investment. Even if I sign a contract here, I can’t carry out follow-up work without someone I trust to help arrange it.”
What Shen Yao does is neither big nor small. Herbal medicine involves a lot of content and is the most important part of her future career.
Not only Xu Huixin, but also other places, Shen Yao needs someone in charge whom she can trust.
Not to mention reaching the level of a confidant, at least I can't hold her back.
The medicinal herbs are grown for their own use. Shen Yao now has the added income from the flavor enhancer powder, so she is indeed not short of money. However, she still hopes that she can create greater value, whether for herself or for something else, so that her life here will not be in vain.
