Chapter 977: Chapter 977: He’s Worried
"Zaozao, Chenchen, have you missed Grandma?" As soon as Zhang Hualian arrived in Jing City, her eyes were glued to the two kids. It had been more than half a month since she last saw them, and Zhang Hualian missed them terribly.
Tang Yue handed over Chenchen to Zhang Hualian, pouting playfully, "Mom, now that you have them, you don’t like me anymore."
"What, you’re even jealous of your own kids?" Zhang Hualian took Chenchen into her arms, the soft little body making her extremely fond. She kissed Chenchen’s cheek and said, "Chenchen, don’t mind your mom. She’s such a child, even jealous of you guys."
"Mom, I’m already a mother of two, who would still call me a child?" Tang Yue smiled warmly.
Ever since Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian returned, Tang Yue felt more at ease. Besides nursing the two kids, she was able to focus on preparing for work matters.
In this past month, although the time was short, Tang Yue managed to book ten customers. Otherwise, with the orders received from Qin Anyu, they’d be queued up until next year.
*
Wangjiang County, First High School.
The principal had investigated for days but couldn’t find out who donated the books. They were displayed in the library, filling it to the brim, which previously had very few books.
Having more books is naturally beneficial for the school, especially as this batch contains a variety of genres, registering them all was a hefty task.
In case they find out who donated the books later, they could at least extend a gesture of gratitude.
Ten thousand books, costing tens of thousands or even more, that is a significant sum. But of course, it also resolves the issue of the county’s first high school library lacking books.
The principal was not the only one happy; the teachers and students were equally delighted.
That day, during the school’s opening meeting, this matter was emphasized, urging everyone to inform them if they had any leads.
The teachers were secretly guessing who was generous enough to donate the books without signing their name.
Tang Yue was unaware of the excitement at First High because she trusted that Meng Siyu would handle the matter perfectly. She continued meeting more clients.
"Sis, good news, great news!"
Lian Qingyang came running back with excitement, grabbing Tang Yue and saying, "Remember those school uniform designs I asked you to sketch? They’ve been finalized, and they are using your designs!"
"Huh..." Tang Yue looked up, bewildered.
"The school uniforms!" Lian Qingyang, parched from excitement, gulped down a glass of water before explaining the details.
Previously, when Lian Qingyang pestered her persistently, she reluctantly sketched a few school uniform designs for him.
Who would have thought that Lian Qingyang actually submitted them?
And they weren’t just submitted; they were also met with widespread approval.
Tang Yue was dumbfounded for a moment and said, "Xiao Yang, are you saying you got me another order?"
"Exactly." Lian Qingyang boasted, "Sis, how about it, I’m pretty amazing, right?"
Lian Qingyang looked eager for praise.
Tang Yue cleared her throat and applauded him, "Thirty-two thumbs up for you, maybe Uncle will give you a bonus."
"What does thirty-two thumbs up mean?" Lian Qingyang was not too concerned with the bonus.
Should she explain the origin of these thirty-two thumbs up?
Tang Yue thought for a moment and said, "It just means you’re awesome."
"Then why not ten thumbs up, or a hundred, or even just thirty, but thirty-two?" Lian Qingyang pursued further.
Tang Yue: "..."
Xiao Yang, why do you have to be so insistent?
"Sis?" Lian Qingyang was determined to get to the bottom of it.
Tang Yue sighed and blinked, "Because I like it, can’t I?"
"Alright." Lian Qingyang wouldn’t dare say otherwise, gleefully adding, "Then I’ll go tell Tang Mingli the good news now."
Tang Yue: "..."
Watching Lian Qingyang’s elated expression, she couldn’t bear to dampen his enthusiasm. This news might leave Uncle speechless.
Currently, Mingyue Clothing has expanded to 200 branches, and just meeting the clothing demands for these alone isn’t a small task.
Considering the previous uniform orders and the special production line opened for children’s wear, the factory’s annual production schedule is fully packed.
If they take on another school uniform order, can the factory manage?
Tang Yue’s guess was spot on; Tang Mingli was indeed startled when he heard the news, having been waiting to construct new factory buildings and expand production lines.
Now, adding a school uniform production line poses quite a challenge.
That same night, Tang Mingli visited, specifically asking how many orders Lian Qingyang had taken. When Tang Mingli heard it was for five schools, he plopped down on the sofa.
"Uncle, you’re overreacting. No need to exaggerate; I just wanted to help Sis get more clients so she can earn some extra private money." Lian Qingyang thought Tang Mingli was happy.
Tang Mingli gave a wry smile, looking at Lian Qingyang.
Sitting by the side, Tang Yue could hardly hold it in, finding her brother adorably innocent.
Uncle wasn’t happy, he was worried.
"Uncle, actually, there’s no need to fret. Even if we secure the orders, you still have to sign the contracts. Production won’t start until the latter half of the year," Tang Yue reminded. "Think about it; this semester’s halfway through, and it’s unlikely schools will order uniforms until the next academic year starts. By then, the new factory buildings will be complete, and you won’t have to worry."
"Right."
With Tang Yue’s reminder, Tang Mingli’s eyes suddenly brightened. The year had just begun, with half a year left. With increased investment, both new factory buildings and workers would be in place. By then, there’ll be no issue producing the clothes.
"Xiao Yue, you’re indeed smart." Tang Mingli praised, a smile finally surfacing on his face.
Lian Qingyang, realizing a bit late, said, "Uncle, so you weren’t happy earlier, you were worried?"
"Uh-huh." Perked up by good news, Tang Mingli was full of energy, thrilled with Mingyue Clothing’s thriving growth. Orders were steadily increasing, and he merrily patted Lian Qingyang’s shoulder, "Xiao Yang, thank you for bringing the orders. When the contracts are signed, Uncle will treat you to a meal."
"Uncle, that’s so stingy." Lian Qingyang shot him a glance.
Before Tang Mingli could respond, Lian Qingyang extended a hand and said, "At least five meals, one isn’t enough."
"Hahaha~"
Tang Yue couldn’t hold back anymore, her laughter like tinkling bells.
Tang Mingli remarked, "Xiao Yue, your brother here is just like Xiao Jun, always thinking about food."
