CHAPTER 796: CHAPTER 798 THE PERSON ONE WILL NEVER FORGET EVEN IN DEATH

Ji Ying saw the hand cream and perfume and repeatedly declined, "I’m getting on in years; I don’t need these things anymore."

"Auntie, these are new products from the factory, even better than the previous hand cream." Cheng Hao explained, "You’re still young, Auntie. These are perfect for you."

"Mom, just take them. The hand cream really is good." Xu Nianhua looked at Liunian’s products and silently compared them with her own. It seemed that, just as Yining had said, her bottle was indeed specially made.

"Then thank you, Xiaohao. Tonight, would you like to come to our house for a simple meal?" Ji Ying warmly invited him.

Cheng Hao declined, "No, Auntie, after our talk today, I’m heading to South City. Liunian has stores there, and I want to check them out."

"I see." Ji Ying felt slightly embarrassed and said, "Then come to Auntie’s home for a meal next time."

"Definitely." Cheng Hao’s lips lifted slightly, feeling very comfortable with Ji Ying’s warm invitation; he really liked the cozy atmosphere when he had previously dined at the Xu Family’s home.

Cheng Hao and Ji Ying talked until five in the afternoon. With a stack of paperwork in his hand, Cheng Hao said, "Auntie, once the factory over there is built, I’d like to invite a few skilled workers from your side to Ningbei to be master trainers for a while."

"No problem." Ji Ying agreed very readily. Once the factory in Ningbei started to develop, their chili sauce factories, one in the south and one in the north, could grow even bigger. Who knows, they might actually manage to take the Chili Sauce Factory nationwide.

...

South City.

Xu Nianhua followed Xu Nianji on a delivery trip, also wanting to visit her grandfather and Ji Shuyuan, hoping to get some useful information from Ji Shuyuan.

"Big brother, how’s Zhou Qiang doing now?"

To pass the time on the road, Xu Nianhua asked curiously.

After they had recruited Ma Zhijun and Liu Qiang, Liu Qiang had taken Zhou Qiang out on deliveries with him everywhere, while Xu Nianji worked with Ma Zhijun. Ma Zhijun, looking very robust and strong, wasn’t much of a talker, and his presence was quite subdued. Xu Nianhua always greeted him politely.

"He’s doing well now," replied Xu Nianji when talking about his brother-in-law. Zhou Qiang used to give him headaches, but now, Xu Nianji thought he had potential. Previously he had just fallen in with the wrong crowd, hanging out with hooligans and learning all sorts of bad tricks.

Now he could endure hardship. In the past, he wouldn’t complain when he went on deliveries with him every day. Before, he was slick and smooth-tongued, but now he had even drummed up quite a bit of business.

Liu Qiang was also honest, yet had a strong deterrent presence. Xu Nianji observed several times that Zhou Qiang had become much tougher than before and no longer dared to harbor any ill intentions.

Listening to Xu Nianji’s words, Xu Nianhua once again marveled at how environment shapes a person. Zhou Qiang wasn’t inherently bad; he had just followed the wrong people. Now that he had turned around, it was a good thing. Otherwise, if he had gotten into some kind of trouble, would his sister-in-law Zhou He be able to stay out of it and watch her brother get into trouble?

"Big brother, later on I’ll accompany you to make deliveries and see for myself how our chili sauce has become so popular."

Xu Nianhua said enthusiastically. She had chatted with the owners at a few places they delivered to, and the chili sauce was very popular, with many repeat customers.

Store owners loved repeat customers—who wouldn’t just buy chili sauce. Maybe they would see something else in his store and decide to buy that too. The owner was glad he had decided to trial sell some chili sauce initially.

After visiting three different stores, Xu Nianhua saw someone she would never forget, no matter what.
