Chapter 494: Shopping with my brother-in-law and Yang Wenwen
Yang Wenwen did not go to school during the first two evening self-study periods. After dinner, Zhou Jing and Yang Wenwen took Yang Liang and Liu Hui shopping. Zhou Jing drove the car. The girl wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Yang Wenwen pulled her to sit in the back, and Yang Liang sat in the passenger seat.

"Did my brother-in-law drive back from BJ?"

Liu Hui said as she sat behind Zhou Jing.

"Take a plane to Tangdu, drive back from Tangdu, and drive back to Yushi. It's okay, but it's too far to Tangdu."

Zhou Jing looked at everyone and saw that they were ready, then started the car and set off.

"Does the BJ to Tangdu Expressway take the section from Yushi to Tangdu?"

Liu Hui continued to ask.

"You don't have to go. This way, it's a detour of more than 200 kilometers. BJ is less than 800 kilometers from Yushi, and about 1,100 kilometers to Tangdu, about 300 kilometers more. Yushi to Tangdu Expressway is less than 600 kilometers."

"Three hundred kilometers more is indeed a lot, a three or four hour drive."

Liu Hui made a simple calculation and said.

"I have something to do at Tangdu Company. Otherwise, if I want to go back to Yu City, it would be more convenient to drive than to take a plane."

As the car passed the Yuxi Bridge, Zhou Jing looked to the right. On the right side of the Yuxi Bridge was the site where the Yuxi Amusement Park was being built. It was invested by Bowen Network Technology Co., Ltd. The site where the amusement park was being built had been demolished and had entered the foundation-laying stage.

"This river is quite wide. Is it a tributary of the Yellow River?"

Yang Liang looked at the river under the bridge.

"It's not the Yellow River system. I don't know which river system it is. Does Teacher Yang know?"

In the evening, the traffic in the city center was very congested, Zhou Jing said while looking ahead.

"I'm not sure if it's the Wuding River."

Yang Wenwen had been in Yulin for almost nine years and still didn’t know.

Listening to Zhou Jing calling Yang Wenwen "Teacher Yang" so naturally and smoothly, Liu Hui couldn't help but feel curious. The relationship between Zhou Jing and Yang Wenwen must be very touching.

Especially when we are intimate in private, that feeling is exciting for outsiders just thinking about it.

"I want that, Dad."

The little girl said when she noticed the peace locket pendant on Zhou Jing’s car.

"You can't take this off. It's Dad's blessing for safety. It blesses Dad to have a safe journey."

In front of her brother and sister-in-law, Yang Wenwen was embarrassed to address her daughter as Zhou Jing.

"Play with this."

Yang Liang gave his car keys to his niece, with a furry little white rabbit hanging on the keychain.

"Take this off."

Liu Hui was worried that the car keys would be lost, so she took the rabbit off the key chain and gave it to the child.

Stopping at the traffic light, Zhou Jing picked up a mobile power bank and handed it to his brother-in-law, saying, "Do you need this? This is a mobile power bank produced by our company. If your phone runs out of power on the road, you can charge it."

"It looks quite convenient. How many times can it charge a phone?"

Liu Hui asked curiously.

"With a capacity of 6,000 mAh, if fully charged, it can charge a mobile phone four or five times and can be reused."

Zhou Jing asked the R&D team to initially design a 10,000 mAh mobile power bank. The battery capacity of current mobile phones is not large, so there is no need for a 10,000 mAh one. On the other hand, it is also necessary to control cost and size.

"Very practical. Thank you, brother-in-law. How much is the wholesale price?"

"Forty or fifty. It's not on the market yet. I'll sell it online next month."

"."

When they reached Second Street, Zhou Jing looked for a place to park while saying, "How about we take the Pedestrian Street on the way up and Second Street on the way back before it gets dark?"

"Row."

Yesterday, Yang Wenwen couldn't help but wonder if Zhou Jing would deliberately avoid her because his younger brothers and sisters were coming. In that case, although Yang Wenwen could avoid embarrassment, she would still feel lost. Today, Zhou Jing not only came to Yushi, but also put aside his work at the company and took time to accompany his younger brothers and sisters. Yang Wenwen felt embarrassed, but more happy.

It is not easy for his younger brother to come to Yu City. If Zhou Jing returns to Yu City and he cannot see Yang Wenwen, his younger brother will definitely doubt Zhou Jing's intentions towards Yang Wenwen, and Yang Wenwen will inevitably feel bad.

“It’s quite prosperous here.”

The car was moving forward like squeezing toothpaste, Liu Hui said while looking outside the car.

"This street is the most prosperous place in Yushi City. The alley on the right used to be a pedestrian street. People usually go shopping on these two streets."

Yang Wenwen gave a brief introduction to her younger brothers and sisters.

“It feels no worse than Xianshi.”

Liu Hui rolled down the window to feel it.

"This place is better than Xian City. Yu City's economy ranks second in the province, second only to Tangdu."

Like many boys, Yang Liang usually pays more attention to economics.

"I see."

"Or you can just park your car next to the car. It's not far to walk over. You can drive over and come back to get it."

Yang Wenwen said while looking outside the car.

Zhou Jing nodded, turned on the turn signal and turned left into the parking space.

“It’s nice to have a regular job here.”

After getting off the bus, Liu Hui personally felt the unique charm of the Saishang Plain. Although the climate here is a bit drier, the air is very fresh. It is almost April, but the wind is still slightly cool and very comfortable.

Zhou Jing thought to himself that it would be fine to work anywhere in the country as long as there was a job opening.

"It's just that sometimes the wind and sand are quite strong in spring, and the winter is much colder than in Tangdu."

Yang Wenwen said with a smile.

Liu Hui said, "I'm not afraid of the cold winter, but I've had enough of the summer in Tangdu. How's the summer here?"

"It's hot in the summer, but the heat here is mainly from the sun. Not applying sunscreen can cause serious damage to the skin. No matter how hot it is during the day, the temperature drops quickly when the sun sets."

Yang Wenwen talked as she walked, leading the way.

"It's always better to have a cooler summer."

"."

Yang Wenwen and Liu Hui walked in front, while Zhou Jing followed behind with the little girl and Yang Liang.

"Dad, what a nice smell."

The little girl smelled the smell of grilled sausages in the street,
"Don't eat fried junk food. It's bad for your health."

Zhou Jing dotes on his child but will not cultivate the habit of eating junk food from a young age. The little girl likes to act coquettishly with Zhou Jing. She will not insist on things that Zhou Jing opposes and is quite sensible.

“Are there any better companies here?”

Yang Liang admired the local customs and culture of Yulin City.

"If you want high wages and good benefits, you'll go to coal mines and chemical plants, and then power plants. The working environment is a little worse."

Zhou Jing said as he looked at Yang Wenwen's back.

Yang Wenwen was wearing a white shirt on her upper body and slim-fit jeans of medium color on her lower body. The jeans wrapped her hips very roundly. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail as usual, looking dignified and generous.

“The power plant is pretty good.”

Yang Liang nodded and said.

"Zhou Jing is much more mature than most boys of the same age. You two look like a couple. Did you know that he liked you when he was in high school?"

Liu Hui glanced back and gossiped in a voice that only she and Yang Wenwen could hear.

"." It was the first time that she heard someone say that she and Zhou Jing looked like a couple, and it was her prospective sister-in-law who said that. Yang Wenwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and she said, "I don't know. He was too young at that time."

Even if Yang Wenwen had seen through Zhou Jing's behavior when he was in high school, she would not have been able to accept it. The way things have turned out now is beyond Yang Wenwen's expectations. If Zhou Jing had not lost control to that point, Yang Wenwen would definitely not have had the courage.

"Sister, have you ever thought about having another child? Having a child with both of you should help your development."

Liu Hui looked at Yang Wenwen's figure and couldn't help but look down at herself. There is no harm without comparison. Although Yang Wenwen is in such a situation and is already 31 years old, with Yang Wenwen's appearance and figure, it is not difficult for her to find someone with good conditions. It is really enviable to find someone as young, handsome and capable as Zhou Jing.

“Let’s see after I quit my job!”

This question touched on Yang Wenwen's most sensitive point. As long as Zhou Jing wanted it, Yang Wenwen would of course be more than happy to do it. But now was the critical time when Zhou Jing's career was booming, and Yang Wenwen had no reason to hold him back.

"Want something to drink?"

Passing by a beverage shop, Zhou Jing said to the two people in front.

"Go in and have a look."

Yang Wenwen stopped, looked back and walked towards the tea shop.

Several people followed in. Yang Wenwen and Liu Hui were looking at something in front of the bar, Yang Xin squeezed in between them, and Zhou Jing and Yang Liang were watching from the side.

"What do you two want?"

Liu Hui turned around and asked.

"I want red bean milk tea."

Zhou Jing glanced at the menu and said.

"I want bubble tea."

Yang Liang also asked for one at random.

"Mom, I want to drink too." said the little girl eagerly.

"Children can't drink it."

Liu Hui teased the little girl.

The little girl turned to Zhou Jing and hugged him begging.

"Here, be careful, it's hot."

Yang Wenwen ordered strawberry milk tea for her daughter and put the straw in it before giving it to her daughter.

The little girl let go of Zhou Jing, held the milk tea with both hands and took a sip.

When Liu Hui wanted to pay the bill, Yang Wenwen rushed to pay it. After the milk tea was ready, they continued walking, crossed an alley and entered the pedestrian street.

“Is this street full of ancient buildings?”

Liu Hui looked at the quaint vermilion buildings on both sides of the street.

“It was built based on ancient buildings.”

“It’s nice to have a street like this in the city center.”

"."

Several people walked leisurely along the pedestrian street. Yang Wenwen and Liu Hui went into any store they saw that interested them, while Zhou Jing, the little girl, and Yang Liang followed them aimlessly.

"Dad, hold it for me."

The little girl was full and gave the milk tea to Zhou Jing.

"Dad will take it and you can finish it in a while."

Zhou Jing held it and handed it to the little girl.

"Buy it for me after you finish drinking it."

The little girl was tired from walking, so she put her arm around Zhou Jing's waist and leaned on him. When she wanted to drink milk tea, she held Zhou Jing's hand and took a sip of it.

Liu Hui looked back at the child who had been clinging to Zhou Jing, and said to Yang Wenwen: "CC is very dependent on Zhou Jing. Does CC miss Zhou Jing when he is not at home?"

"Yes, Zhou Jing came back in August 09 to intern as a teacher. At that time, CC was less than three years old, and Zhou Jing often played with CC."

In front of her younger siblings and brother, Yang Wenwen tried to face her relationship with Zhou Jing in a natural manner. Yang Wenwen felt that her daughter depended on Zhou Jing more than herself, and whenever she scolded her daughter, she would say "Tell Daddy"

"09, 10, 11, 12, it's almost three years. The three years from three to six are very important for a child's growth, right?"

Liu Hui could imagine that children start to get to know their family when they are two or three years old, and having a complete family is crucial for a child's growth. Zhou Jing just made up for the missing part of Yang Wenwen's family.

"Ah."

"Zhou Jing looks after the child very attentively and attentively, and does a better job than many biological fathers."

There was only Yang Wenwen present, and Liu Hui did not call Zhou Jing brother-in-law.

Yang Wenwen knew Zhou Jing very well. She had seen everything Zhou Jing had done for her and her daughter over the past two years.

Passing by a mobile business hall, Liu Hui went in to pay her phone bill, Yang Liang took out the money to pay, Zhou Jing and Yang Wenwen followed her in, and saw the Ideal Bluetooth speaker in the store. Zhou Jing went over, pointed at a mid-range version and asked how much it cost.

"150, this Bluetooth speaker sells very well"

The teller began to talk to Zhou Jing, demonstrating the Bluetooth connection function while talking.

Zhou Jing pretended to be curious when listening, thinking that the retailer's business was really shady, the purchase price was less than 60 yuan and the price was 150 yuan. How dare they ask for that.

Yang Wenwen smiled and said nothing while the teller introduced the product to the boss who developed the speaker. I wonder what the teller would think after knowing the information.

“I bought it a few days ago.”

Unable to bear it any longer, Zhou Jing chose to walk away.

"How about selling the speakers for 150 yuan?"

Leaving the business hall, Liu Hui said with a smile.

"The mid-range version can be sold for RMB 150 at retail, and the high-end version can be sold for around RMB 200. The low factory price is to quickly promote the brand and compete for the smartphone market in the second half of the year. At the company's factory price, it will take two to three years to recover the investment in acquiring and upgrading the electronics factory by selling 10 million Bluetooth speakers a year."

From an objective point of view, Zhou Jing thinks that a Bluetooth speaker selling for one or two hundred yuan is not too expensive.

When it comes to electronic products, whoever seizes the opportunity has the power to set prices.

After walking halfway along the pedestrian street and exiting the alley to the Second Street, I felt like I was traveling through time from the quaint pedestrian street to the bustling commercial street.

"Dad, I'm tired."

The little girl hung on Zhou Jing and said.

"Look, which child this big still needs to be carried? Go to the square across the street and rest."

Yang Wenwen looked at her daughter and said.

"You are already so tall."

Yang Liang touched his niece's head and said.

Across the road was Century Square. When they got to the square, they found a place to do it, and the little girl leaned in Zhou Jing's arms.

"If you're tired, just sit still. Are you cold?"

Yang Wenwen touched her daughter's hand and said.

"not cold."

The little girl shook her head.

"Tomorrow is Friday. Call the teacher to ask about the homework for the past two days and make up for it on Sunday."

Yang Wenwen continued.

"I've taken leave."

When she heard about having to make up her homework, the little girl immediately became like a deflated balloon.

"I don't have to study if I take a leave?"

"It's enough to take two days off to play. It's unacceptable not to do homework."

When it comes to studying, Zhou Jing does not interfere with Yang Wenwen's teaching of her children.

"If you don't study hard, you will become a stupid kid."

Liu Hui pinched the little girl's face and said.

At around eight o'clock, Yang Wenwen went to school. Zhou Jing's car was not around, so Yang Wenwen took a taxi to Experimental Middle School, while Zhou Jing continued to accompany his brother-in-law shopping.

"Is mom fierce?"

Liu Hui pulled the little girl into her arms and said.

"It's really fierce."

"Is Dad fierce?"

"Dad is not fierce."

"If you listen to me, mom won't be mean to you."

"."

After resting for a while in the square, Zhou Jing took his brother-in-law and Liu Hui to taste the spicy lamb trotters, a specialty of Yulin’s roadside stalls.

"You can't eat this, it's all spicy. How about Dad buy you some chicken wings?"

The little girl wants to eat too, Zhou Jing said.

The little girl nodded obediently.

"You guys eat first, I'll go buy some."

Yang Liang got up and went to the barbecue stall next to him and ordered four skewers of grilled chicken wings.

"This lamb's trotter tastes good. Is it customary for my brother-in-law, such a big boss, to eat at a roadside stall with us?"

Liu Hui tasted the sheep's trotters and smiled.

"There's nothing to be unaccustomed to. Everybody has to live with the daily necessities of life."

Zhou Jing smiled and said.

"There is a saying that the more capable a person is, the more humble he is. It's absolutely true."

"."

After buying chicken wings, Yang Liang gave each person a skewer.

"Put on these gloves and eat them. Be careful not to poke your throat."

The steel skewers used to stick chicken wings were quite sharp, and Zhou Jing was worried that the little girl might poke herself accidentally, so he asked the owner of the sheep's trotters for a pair of plastic gloves for the little girl to wear when she took the chicken wings off to eat.

"Brother-in-law takes good care of children. Yang Liang should learn from him."

Liu Hui, a girl who is about to get married, feels inferior to her.

“I’m still learning!”

Yang Liang admired his brother-in-law even more. He was four years older than Zhou Jing and seemed immature enough in front of Zhou Jing.
