Chapter 449 - Aunts Family has a Problem (2/2)
”Alright, I got it.” Zhang Ye carried on eating. ”In a while, you can go to work directly. I'll do the dishes. Hur Hur. Mom, how is that?”
Mom tsk’ed, ”I'll make do with that.”
After a while, the old couple left for work.
Zhang Ye began to wash the dishes along at home. After he was done, he sat on the couch in the living room and lit up a cigarette... Oh right, now the SARFT doesn't allow smoking. This paragraph will deleted!
As he watched TV, his cellphone rang.
From the display, it was his Aunt's home number.
Only then did Zhang Ye recall the matter. He did not expect his Aunt to call him already. He then pressed the answer key. ”h.e.l.lo, Aunt. I just heard from my parents that you were looking for me for something. I was just about to call you back.”
Zhang Donghua said: ”You are home?”
Zhang Ye said, ”Yea, I just returned home this morning.”
Zhang Donghua asked with concern, ”How are you? Are you busy with work recently?”
”Hai, I don't have any work anymore. I'm currently resting.” Zhang Ye said.
Zhang Donghua responded, ”Oh. Hur Hur. That's nice.”
Zhang Ye blinked his eyes. ”Is there something you need me for?”
Zhang Donghua then said, ”Actually it's nothing serious. Well, erh.. it's this. I'll let your elder sister talk to you about it. She has something for you...”
Zhang Ye said, ”Sure.”
He could hear Zhang Donghua call her daughter over the phone, ”Little Shuang, it's your brother's call...Little Shuang. Hey, you finally came over...Hurry...”
A very soft female voice said from the other side, ”You do the talking, Mom.”
Zhang Donghua said in a speechless manner, ”This child.”
Zhang Ye made a wry smile. ”Aunt, tell me then. I'm still so confused about what's going on. We are family, so what can't you tell me about?”
Zhang Donghua said, ”I'm not very sure about the matter too. It's your elder sister's blogshop. She's not working now, right? She and her friend formed a partners.h.i.+p to set up a blogshop and were designing clothes themselves, or find others to design. It's considered their own brand, then they would get a factory to produce the clothes and sell them on the web, but now, the business isn't doing too well, and nothing spectacular has happened. They have been losing money all this time.”
Zhang Ye did not know of this matter. ”My Sis opened a Taobao?”
When Zhang Donghua heard this, she was confused. ”What's Taobao?”
”Cough Cough. Nothing, my bad.” Zhang Ye smacked himself on the lips and just realized that this world no longer had Alibaba. ”Tell me, what do you need me for?”
Zhang Donghua said, ”Your Sis is a bit thin-skinned. She long wanted to get your help, but kept feeling that it wasn't appropriate. Now she has no job and income...”
Zhang Ye was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. ”Aunt, Aiyah, just tell me. I'm getting dizzy hearing all this.”
Zhang Donghua coughed, ”Your Sis, she wants to...get you to be a model. They sell male clothing, but do not know anything about celebrity endors.e.m.e.nt, or if there are any restrictions from your company. If it's too much trouble or violates your company's contract, then forget it. It's alright.”
Model?
Just this?
Zhang Ye immediately said, ”Is my Sis also at home?”
Zhang Donghua said, ”She's here.”
”Then I'll come over now. It's not easy to talk about such things over the phone.” Zhang Ye really could not stand his Aunt's beating around the bush. It was too confusing.
”Now? Aren't you busy?” Zhang Donghua said, ”I heard from my siblings, that you have really been busy recently over some random stuff. You haven't been home the past few days and even went to the Internet Surveillance Bureau.”
Zhang Ye said with a frivolous smiles. ”Not busy at all. Even if I were busy, it can't be more important than something my Aunt and Sis need me for. I'll be over shortly.”
Zhang Donghua said with a laugh, ”Our Little Ye is so obedient. Aunt will wait here for you. Don't worry about lunch. I'll settle it for you.”
