Chapter 238 It’s Okay, Baby

After Su Heng and Lu Mingchuan finished their work, they went back to the Fu family to pick up Qiuqiu.

As soon as he saw Su Heng, he called out "Mom" in a crisp voice, then opened his arms and rushed towards Su Heng with his short legs.

He was staggering and now needed to hold onto the chair railing when walking, but he took these few steps very steadily.

Su Heng hurried forward and was embraced by her cute and chubby son.

Looking at that fair face and big eyes like grape kernels, I couldn't help but go over and kiss her twice.

Qiuqiu's thick, fan-like eyelashes, which looked very much like Su Heng's, fluttered. She leaned in her mother's arms and expressed her longing in a baby voice.

"Mom, I miss you."

Then, as if he had just seen his cheap dad, he said, "Dad, I want it too."

Su Heng was almost melted by the cuteness. She took a few deep puffs of Qiuqiu before saying, "Mom and Dad miss you too. We brought you a gift. Let Dad take it out and show it to you, okay?"

Qiuqiu could already understand some simple words, and he responded sweetly with "OK".

Qiuqiu is a child who talks a lot after he learned to speak. He seems to be particularly good at thinking and his brain is very active.

Lu Mingchuan took out a bunch of toys from his bag, the most interesting of which was a small red toy car.

Hong Kong is a new gadget smuggled in from there. It has batteries and a small remote control that can drive it to move forward and backward.

It was just a small toy car, and I spent eighty-six.

Lu Mingchuan demonstrated to Qiuqiu how to play, and Qiuqiu laughed very happily.

Both the couple felt that the money was well spent.

"Dad!" Qiuqiu stretched out his hand, trying to grab the car.

Lu Mingchuan gave him the remote control, held his hand and pressed the front and rear buttons, and the car started moving again.

After repeating this several times, Qiuqiu cleverly understood that if she pressed the button in her hand, the car would move.

So I pressed it myself.

But he obviously didn't use enough force, and the car rushed around in the living room, accidentally hit the wall and overturned.

Qiuqiu seemed to know that she had done something wrong and whispered to Su Heng: "Mom, car..."

"It's okay, baby. Just be more careful next time." Su Heng said gently.

"Ask Dad to help you turn over."

After hearing this, Qiuqiu looked at Lu Mingchuan and said obediently, "Dad, help Qiuqiu."

Lu Mingchuan picked up his son and put him on his shoulders, then took him to the corner to pick up the car.

"Come on, Daddy will take you to play in the yard."

The yard was much more spacious. Qiuqiu sat on his father's shoulders, and soon the sounds of the father and son playing could be heard.

Yao Wenyin brought out a plate of fruit for Su Heng, and looked at the people in the yard with her, smiling, "It's rare for Mingchuan to show such a childish side."

Lu Mingchuan has always been calm and reliable in front of his family and elders, and his childish side is revealed in front of Su Heng.

Since he started driving a truck last year, he spends less time at home, and Qiuqiu sees him less often.

So when Lu Mingchuan is at home, he will try to play with Qiuqiu as much as possible.

Su Heng smiled and said, "You should relax once in a while. You and Grandpa can stay with us for a few days. I see Grandpa really likes fishing."

"He has a sullen personality. I'll go pack Qiuqiu's things and go over there early. I see you haven't had a good rest since you just got back. Go back and get some sleep."

Su Heng agreed.

She went back to the garden and took a nap in the afternoon. She had not been home for half a month, so Wenshu and the others helped her clean the yard very well, and the sheets and quilts had been exposed to the sun.

You can also smell the unique scent of sunshine.

Wenshu and the others came back very early in the afternoon. Wenshu made dinner, and Su Heng ate directly after waking up.

Su Jing also came back. It seemed that finding a store was going smoothly.

"I had asked someone to keep an eye out for shops before, and this time a friend told me there was a suitable storefront for rent on the street."

Su Heng felt that her elder brother had really a lot of friends.

"Brother, why don't you just buy a shop? I'll give you the money you need first."

Su Jing still had some money, but it was not enough to buy a shop. After he purchased the first batch of goods, he only had 500 yuan left.

The shop on the street he was looking at, even if it was a bungalow, would cost at least two thousand yuan to buy.

Originally, the money was enough, but after listening to Su Heng, I saved most of it to buy land.

Su Heng felt that renting someone else's house was inconvenient after all. Su Jing still had to redecorate it. When the business was good, if the landlord became jealous, it would be hard to explain.

Su Jing thought about it and didn't hesitate.

He had actually been planning to open a store for a long time, and felt that if things went as planned, it would only take a few months to make back the money he earned from the store.

"Okay, I'll write you an IOU."

When they returned to their room at night, Su Heng told Lu Mingchuan about her thoughts.

"I want to buy a few more shops. I originally planned to save money and buy land in the south, but now I haven't used it all. It's useless to keep it. In the future, the economy will develop rapidly, prices will rise, and money will depreciate. It's better to buy a house that can appreciate in value."

They still have 35,000 yuan in savings, which will be spent quickly if they buy a house.

Lu Mingchuan held Su Heng in his arms, listening to her earnest words, but in reality, he didn't really listen. He kissed her and casually replied, "I'll listen to you."

"Is it perfunctory?"

Lu Mingchuan looked at those bright eyes and whispered, "How could that be? I just actively responded to any decision my wife made. However, it's getting late now, and it's time to go to bed."

Su Heng reached out and poked his plump and elastic pectoral muscles, and asked mischievously: "Just sleeping?"

Lu Mingchuan hummed lightly, but he had his own understanding of sleeping.

The next day, because it was the weekend, Su Heng didn't have to go back to school.

She simply went with Su Jing to see the shop.

Su Jing looked at a small street-facing building that was for sale. Although it was only one floor, it had an attic that was quite spacious and could be used for people to rest.

Su Heng lent him two thousand to help his elder brother buy a shop.

Then Su Jing accompanied Su Heng to see a shop in a good location that he had heard about before but he couldn't afford.

So Su Heng spent another 6,000 to buy two shops, one of which was also at a three-way intersection.

Suddenly, he had three more shops. Su Heng had given Su Jing some suggestions before. In fact, he had a flash of inspiration and wanted to sell cosmetics.

But there are so few types of cosmetics nowadays, and she actually wants to make her own.

Because she can produce many raw materials herself, the essences of flowers and plants are easy for her to obtain.

However, she only knows how to DIY lipstick and liquid foundation. As for lotions and creams, she knows roughly what to use, but does not know the specific steps and ingredients.

Every profession has its own expertise, and some things still require professionals to do.

"Beauty recipe?" Song Wan was surprised.

"Yeah, there are too few categories of goods sold outside now. I thought, maybe we can make it ourselves. This is a huge market gap. Wanwan, let's start a company together!"

Song Wan's ancestors were imperial physicians, and they passed down many beauty and skin care recipes that were used in the ancient palace and can be considered authentic ancient beauty care recipes.

Song Wan hesitated a little: "But that requires a lot of herbs. Where can we find the supply of those raw materials?"

There is actually a large shortage of traditional Chinese medicine in the market now.

Seeing her like this, Su Heng was moved and quickly said, "Don't worry, I have channels here, and when the demand is large, we can cooperate with farmers."

She explained in detail how to cooperate. In fact, it was based on some companies in later generations, which distributed seeds to farmers for free, asked them to plant them, and then purchased them in a unified manner after they were mature.

Seeing her say this, Song Wan smiled and nodded: "That's fine, those recipes are just gathering dust anyway. I'll write you a list of ingredients first, and when you get the goods, I'll make a batch to see the results."

Su Heng agreed immediately.

She had used the facial cream Song Wan made for her and knew the effect would be good.
