“Every individual has a different temperament and perspective, and there’s no need for everyone to conform to the same thought pattern. There’s no way that everyone will agree with your actions, as long as those actions are beneficial to yourself, I don’t mind what others think.”

“As long as somebody is not dishonest, cold-hearted, and disloyal, the rest isn’t a big deal and shouldn’t be a huge concern.”

Zhuang Qingning laughed.

“Wise words indeed.” Zhuang Yonghe agreed and nodded.

Each person has different temperaments, and naturally, different perspectives towards everything. This is the most common thing. It is impossible to find a flawless person when doing anything. As long as the person is decent, can work, and their actions also benefit you, it is fine.

As for the rest of the minor details, they do not really matter.

“From now on, Uncle Yonghe, please trouble yourself to deliver a piece of tofu daily to the village chief. I know that he likes to stand out from the rest. Let’s indulge his wish.”

Zhuang Qingning squinted with a smile, “Right, the tofu shop is opening the day after tomorrow. That day isn’t a big market day, so I speculate there won’t be too many people in town. If Auntie has time, please come and show some support. It makes our shop seem busier.”

“Sure.” Mrs. He agreed with a smile.

After the conversation, Zhuang Qingning headed back to the tofu factory to continue her work. The following morning, she went to set up her tofu stand in town as usual.

Zhang Qiuying still came to sell her fried chop rice cakes. As it wasn’t a large market day, she carried fewer cakes with her.

“Qiuying.” Upon seeing her arrival, Zhuang Qingning greeted, “How’s everything at home?”

“Same as usual.” Zhang Qiuying managed a forced smile, “Dad is recuperating from the injury at home, while mom and grandma have gone to look for the main house. Qiuyue is at home taking care of dad.”

“This time, grandma and mom brought the village chief along to the main house for arbitration. Some people say that mishaps at work are usually our own fault caused by carelessness, and they have nothing to do with the main house.”

“Dad was hit by a beam, it was all due to the main house not communicating properly. The beam they used was much larger than what was originally discussed, and they did not prepare the necessary equipment. Dad suggested waiting for more people before lifting the beam but the main house refused. As a result, this accident happened. It is clear that the main house was in the wrong. But now, the main house is claiming that my dad agreed to lift the beam.”

“The other workers are afraid that the main house will not pay them, so no one is stepping forward to speak. My mom and grandma plan to look for these workers, and hopefully, they can help make an argument for my dad.”

“However, even if we get what we want, I suspect all we’ll get is compensation for the medical fees. The doctor said future potential for heavy labor from my dad’s leg is doubtful…”

As Zhang Qiuying spoke, her eyes became teary, but she held back the tears.

Zhuang Qingning also pursed her lips.

In middle-age, he was the backbone of the family. With elderly and children to care for, any misfortune could be devastating. The family can’t carry on a normal life.

They’ve sold the fields and can’t do manual work in the future. Yet the medical expenses can’t stop. Life is becoming increasingly difficult.

[Ding, helping others is a virtue. Host has triggered the mission of timely assistance. If the host can help Zhang Qiuying’s family to find a way to make a living, you will get generous rewards!]

Helping others is a virtue, timely assistance in difficulty.

Zhuang Qingning was definitely not against it. However, as to how to help Zhang Qiuying’s family find a way to make a living, she had to think about it carefully. The tofu shop was about to open…

Yes, the tofu shop, how could she forget about it?

She had thought about it before. The opening of the tofu shop was a good thing. It would be easier to sell more tofu in the future. But she and Zhuang Qingsui couldn’t watch the shop all the time. If someone could help them sell tofu…

That would indeed be a great choice.

She just didn’t know what kind of people Zhang Qiuying’s parents, Mrs. Liu’s eldest son, and daughter-in-law were.

“The old saying goes, ‘God closes a door only to open a window. There’s always a way. It’s heart-wrenching when something happens in the family, but life must go on. You should look at things from a positive perspective.”

Zhuang Qingning said, attempting to comfort her, “First, sell all your fried chop rice cakes. Later, I’ll accompany you back home to see how your dad is doing.”

“Okay.” Zhang Qiuying nodded.

Their home was in chaos at this time. Zhang Qiuying didn’t dare to ask more or speak more at home. She was afraid that more words would make her parents more heartbroken. She could only share her troubles with Zhuang Qingning, a reliable friend.

Now that everything was out in the open, she felt much more relieved, especially when she was with Zhuang Qingning, the capable and calm big sister, it gave her strength.

Zhuang Qingning’s tofu and salted duck eggs were still selling well, and there was a constant stream of customers. During peak sales, she also helped Zhang Qiuying shout to attract customers for her fried chop rice cakes.

When the sun was at its peak, the fried chop rice cakes were finally all sold out.

Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui then accompanied Zhang Qiuying back home.

Before going, Zhuang Qingning bought some pastry in the town.

“Big Sister Ning, you don’t need to buy this. It’s expensive. Just coming to visit is enough. We’re not too close in relation, it’s a bit too cordial.”

Zhang Qiuying remembered how Zhuang Qingning had taken care of her these past few days, and didn’t want her to spend more hard-earned money because of her family situation.

“How can we visit someone empty-handed?” Zhuang Qingning laughed, “I understand that you’re worried about me spending money, but spending on what should be spent on shouldn’t be reduced.”

Seeing that the pastries had already been bought and Zhuang Qingning’s assertion, Zhang Qiuying didn’t say anything more.

However, she made a mental note in her heart to remember what Zhuang Qingning bought and planned to return the favor in the future when she had the opportunity.

Mrs. Liu once told her, relationships should always be two-way, and one can’t always be on the receiving end without giving. If this balance is broken, relationships won’t last.

Zhang Qiuying believed that there was a lot of truth in grandma’s words and that she must follow this wisdom.

The three young girls chatted along the way and soon reached Zhang Qiuying’s home.

Zhang Qiuyue was picking chives in the courtyard, along with a few small cucumbers she had plucked from the ground.

The cucumbers were still soft and tender, and were indeed immature. They were plucked early to be used in cooking.

“Qiuyue, where is everyone at home? Arc mom and grandma back yet?” Zhang Qiuying stood in the courtyard and asked, “Big Sister Ning and Sister Sui are here.”

“Mom and grandma are not back yet. Dad is resting in the house..”
