Chapter 529: 143: My son has gone abroad, he is so amazing! _5
…
Today was the day before Ni Yang’s departure abroad, so she decided to cook a grand dinner. After all, it would be hard to get authentic Chinese food overseas.
She was riding her bike home when she bumped into Goudan’s sister, Li Ronghua.
Li Ronghua was twenty-two years old this year, she stopped attending school after the first year of junior high due to poor grades when she was 14.
Currently, she managed Ni Yang’s third skin care store. Her family’s financial conditions had improved, and she dressed more stylishly with a red blazer, black leggings, a pair of little leather shoes, and a high ponytail, looking spirited and beautiful.
The Store Manager’s salary was 105 yuan per month.
Even her friends who graduated from university couldn’t earn a salary that high, Li Ronghua was truly grateful to Ni Yang.
“Yangyang!”
“Sister Ronghua.” Ni Yang firmly applied her bike brakes and jumped off.
“Yangyang, didn’t you say you were going to M Country? Why haven’t you left yet?” asked Li Ronghua.
Ni Yang answered with a smile, “The plane is at 9:30 tomorrow morning.”
“An airplane?” Li Ronghua revealed a longing look, “I have never been on a plane before! Yangyang, when you return, you must describe to me what it feels like to be on a plane.”
“Sure.” Ni Yang nodded.
“By the way, Yangyang, could you do me a favor?” asked Li Ronghua.
“Just tell me, Sister Ronghua.”
Li Ronghua continued, “My boyfriend always wanted a PARKER pen. It’s not available for purchase here in our country, could you help me buy one from M Country? Here is 200 yuan, take it with you. If it’s not enough, I will cover the rest when you return.”
PARKER pens from M Country were quite renowned and a dream come true for many university students.
Li Ronghua’s boyfriend was a university student. She really loved him, or else she wouldn’t be willing to spend 200 yuan. Over the years, she’d subsidized her boyfriend a significant sum of money.
Ni Yang accepted the money, “Alright, I’ll keep an eye out for it.”
“Thank you, Yangyang.”
Ni Yang continued, “By the way, Sister Ronghua, what year is your boyfriend in now?”
“He has repeated two years and is now a sophomore.” Li Ronghua answered.
Boiled carrots with mushrooms was an excellent dish for slimming and weight loss.
The “Compendium of Materia Medica” had once stated that “Carrots could rid the body of illness, nourishing the body. They were good for the heart, stomach, and viscera, as well as induced a good appetite.”
When cooked with mushrooms, the dish was effective in slimming and losing weight.
Since she was about to leave the country, her last meal at home not only needed to taste good but also needed to be nutritious.
The changes brought about by the nourishment of food and skincare over the year were palpable not only on Ni Cuihua and Ni Chenggui but also were immensely impactful.
If she hadn’t seen them every day, Ni Yang would have almost thought they were completely different people.
Of course, the change in Ni Yang herself was not insignificant.
During dinner, Ni Cuihua had even opened a bottle of white wine and drank to toast a few glasses with Ni Chenggui.
The next morning, Ni Yang and Ni Cuihua left the house with her luggage.
“Chirp!” Just as they stepped out, Duoduo flew onto Ni Yang’s shoulder and rubbed its little head against Ni Yang’s chin, as if showing affection.
“Duoduo, be good, go back. We will be back soon. Auntie Ni will feed you in the meantime.”
