Chapter 570: Chapter 557: All is Well

The noodle workshop was managed by Shang Chengen, and she had no worries about finding a market for the products. All she needed to do was sit back, enjoy her tea, and wait for the money to roll in.

Why did life suddenly seem so leisurely and carefree?

Thinking about the tofu and tofu skin workshops, and even the one that made century eggs, all of which were now run by responsible managers, she realized she was completely hands-off now.

Right now, the only thing that needed her attention was the looming textile workshop Zhuang Yutian was planning to establish.

Zhuang Yutian had already sent a note stating that the spinning machine and loom were constructed by craftsmen, and to prevent the designs from leaking, different parts were made by two or three different craftsmen before being assembled by him.

Now, they needed to familiarize themselves with the spinning machine and loom, check the quality of the cotton thread produced from a pound of cotton, and examine the quality of the cloth produced by the loom.

Many of the plans and preparations before the new year had yielded results after the holiday, and Zhuang Qingning felt an immense sense of relief and relaxation.

Reflecting on the numerous preparations and long periods of waiting, Zhuang Qingning felt an overwhelming sense of emotion.

This must be the product of perseverance and patience.

Zhuang Qingning pursed her lips and laughed to herself.

Days hurried by quickly, and before she knew it, it was the day for Zhuang Qingsui to be tested at the women’s academy.

The women’s academy was situated on Ruogu Mountain located at the eastern side of the county town. From Zhuang Qingning’s residence, it was a four-hour journey.

Wanting to reach Ruogu Mountain early, Zhuang Qingning and her companions departed before dawn and set off for the academy.

Joining her were Fan Wenxuan, Chu Jinzhou, and Zhuang Mingli.

As they had risen early, yawning prevailed among the group. The adults, Fan Wenxuan and Zhuang Qingning, felt tolerably well while the three children, led by Zhuang Qingsui, were lolling sleepily, having fallen asleep in the carriage.

Looking at Zhuang Qingsui, deeply asleep on her lap, Zhuang Qingning chuckled and quietly said to Fan Wenxuan, “Qingsui has been studying deep into the night these past few days. I was initially worried she would be too nervous today. I never expected things to turn out like this.”

By not neglecting her studies yet managing to sleep, demonstrated that Zhuang Qingsui took this matter seriously. At the same time, she wasn’t overwhelmingly nervous, hence not overly burdened.

“That’s natural,” stroked Fan Wenxuan his beard, smiling, “Qingsui is a promising student, and such minor matters won’t disturb her peace of mind.”

No matter how you look at it, she was his student, and he was very confident.

Seeing Fan Wenxuan’s confidence and assurance, Zhuang Qingning chuckled, softly.

The carriage continued the journey and traveled until it was the third hour of the day, before finally arriving at the foot of Ruogu Mountain.
