"Is this Aunt Xia?" Zhou Yuanyuan asked.

"How did you know it was me!" Lu Zhixia asked in surprise.

“I can tell by smell,” Zhou Yuanyuan said with a smile, looking up at the sky. “Because adults all smell different, I can tell who you are by smell.”

Lu Zhixia touched the child's head again and looked at Su Lan, whose face was already covered with tears.

Zhou Cheng picked up his daughter and said, "Come home with Daddy!"

Then he took the child inside, knowing his wife needed space to cry.

Lu Zhixia pulled Su Lan into the room and made her sit on the bed, while she sat beside her, trying to comfort her.

"Don't cry, let's work together to figure out a way, we'll definitely be able to cure Yuanyuan's eyes!"

Su Lan knew she was being too dramatic, so she quickly wiped away her tears with her hand. When she looked up, she noticed the cloth placed against the wall.

She works in a textile factory and knows that this kind of fabric is very expensive.

So she looked up and asked, "Why did you buy so much fabric?"

Lu Zhixia handed the teacup to Su Lan, and only spoke after watching her finish drinking the water.

"Today I went to deliver bones to Director, and happened to know that the supply and marketing cooperative was disposing of goods. Then I went to the fabric counter and saw that these were fabrics that had been slightly soaked in water."

"Your luck is unmatched, but what are you planning to do with all this fabric?"

Lu Zhixia placed the teacup back on the windowsill, turned around, and continued talking to her.

"Make them into arm warmers, car covers, or whatever, anything that can be sold. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lan excitedly said, "Your idea is brilliant! These fabrics have only been soaked in a little water. After washing them clean, we can remake them into useful items and sell them on the street. No one will know. Even if they do, it doesn't matter, as long as the surface is clean."

"So, are you going to take this job or not?" Lu Zhixia asked.

"What, you're going to leave it to me?" Su Lan was already worried about what to do next, how to take care of her daughter and earn money at the same time.

Lu Zhixia has brought her another big surprise, making her feel that there is hope for the future. She held her hand tightly.

Lu Zhixia said playfully, "That's right! If I don't entrust it to you, who else can I entrust it to? I'm taking the train to another city the day after tomorrow, and I'm leaving everything to you."

"Don't worry, I promise I'll do a good job." Su Lan burst into tears of joy again.

Lu Zhixia used a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Alright, stop crying. We have to look forward to the future. If Grandpa Bai can't help us, we'll earn money and go to big cities. If that doesn't work, we'll go abroad. There's always a way."

"Yes, I'll listen to you!" Su Lan hugged Lu Zhixia tightly. "Thank God for bringing you into my life, otherwise I really don't know how I would go on living."

Lu Zhixia sensed someone watching her. When she looked up, she saw Zhou Cheng standing at the door with a grateful expression.

"Thank you!"

Lu Zhixia told him, "Neither of you need to be polite with me. We'll make money together and face problems together. Everything will pass!"

Zhou Cheng nodded firmly, "Girl, what you said makes sense. I came here to tell you that we've decided to invest in the restaurant."

Let's share the responsibility, and I'll definitely put in my best effort!

Su Lan slowly released her hand. She had been too excited just now, otherwise she wouldn't have acted like this. She had lost her composure.

"Can I have one too?" Xiao Wang came in from outside carrying the fruit he had bought.

Lu Zhixia noticed that he had a new haircut and looked exceptionally energetic.

"Do you even know what we're going to do? And you just agree to it so readily! Aren't you afraid it'll turn into murder and arson?"

"I'll do anything you say, sister!" Xiao Wang said confidently. "Following sister will definitely make us a living!"

Lu Zhixia said, "I'm going on a long trip the day after tomorrow. We'll decide on the next step after I get back."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang realized that this was the prelude to something big!

She immediately said, "No matter what you do, you have to take me with you. I'm willing to endure hardship and do anything. Just say the word, sister!"

Lu Zhixia thought Xiao Wang had a good tongue, perfect for a waiter job, and figured it wouldn't hurt to give him a hint, so she spoke up.

"I just bought a house and I'm planning to open a dumpling restaurant. Would you like to join me in this business?"

"How do I join?" Xiao Wang asked immediately.

Seeing his interest, Lu Zhixia said, "Joining is the same as becoming a shareholder. After deducting the usual expenses such as buying groceries, the profits will be settled according to our agreement."

Xiao Wang scratched his head, feeling he couldn't figure it out, so he said...

"I'm fine with whatever you do."

Lu Zhixia felt that they probably still didn't quite understand, so she took this opportunity to explain it clearly.

"For example, if the house is mine and I paid for the renovations, then when it comes to profit sharing, I should take 60%, which is 60 yuan out of every 100 yuan!"
