"Then I'll trouble you, Xiaoxue. I've been really troubled by the baby in my belly recently."
"No problem, leave it to me!"
Chen Ruxue thought, aren’t they just two pills for morning sickness? She just needs to exchange them with the system.
Uncle Lin and Aunt Xia helped her a lot, so this was her way of repaying them.
Lin Han looked at the bowl in Chen Ruxue's hand, feeling a little strange. "Xiaoxue, what are you doing...?"
Chen Ruxue hurriedly raised the meat in her hand and said, "This is my mother-in-law's secret recipe of braised pork offal. She asked me to bring a bowl over for you to try.
Besides, I have something I want to trouble Uncle Lin with."
"Braised pork head! So good, I used to love it.
If you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Don’t be polite to me.”
"Then I'll just say it directly, my parents-in-law are bored at home and want to do something.
Today, we have officially started setting up a stall to sell braised offal.
I just went to take a look and found that many people on that street have converted the back houses of their courtyard houses into shops. I thought about buying a house like that so that I don’t have to ride a tricycle every day to reserve a spot.
It's still good if the weather is good, but if there is heavy rain, strong wind, or hail one day, it will be troublesome.
I'm a stranger in Beijing, and I don't know anyone, so I thought of you, Uncle Lin, and would like you to introduce me to someone who can sell houses."
Lin Han thought about it and understood what was going on. He readily agreed, "Okay, I'll ask for you. I actually know someone like this. He specializes in flipping houses all over Beijing."
"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Lin. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."
"Be careful, or I won't send you off!"
After watching Chen Ruxue leave, Lin Han busied himself preparing dinner.
Less than half an hour after Chen Ruxue returned home, Ye Haonan also rushed back home with his father.
Ye's mother hurried over to greet him, "You're back so soon. How are the sales?"
"Mom, it's selling so well! People are vying to buy our braised offal. Look, it's sold out in just a short while."
"Is it really that easy to sell?" Mother Ye looked at the completely empty big iron pot with some disbelief.
"Of course it's true, old woman, you didn't see it, those people came as soon as they smelled the meat, and they were scrambling to pay.
That scene almost pushed me aside."
"Not only that, Mom, there are still many people who haven't bought any, so they asked us to prepare more for tomorrow!"
When Ye Haonan saw his parents like this, he was happy for them.
"That's great, I'll make another one tomorrow.
Don't make too much at first. After a while, you can set a fixed amount. It's not going to be just right anyway, so make less and make sure there's no leftovers every day."
Although Ye's mother has spent most of her life in the countryside, she is a person who knows how to make a living.
Chen Ruxue couldn't help but admire her mother-in-law. She was quite motivated and seemed like someone who could get things done.
Since they all thought of this, there was no need for her to mention it again.
In the evening, after dinner, Ye's mother insisted on dragging Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan with them to count the money they sold.
After counting over and over again, Ye's mother finally believed that all this was not a dream.
"Oh my god, selling braised meat is really profitable. We sold so much in just one day. If we could do this every day, we would be rich."
"Mom, this is just the beginning. Many people still don't know about it. After a while, I think I can earn more."
"Good, very good!" Mother Ye took out a wad of money from a handful and stuffed it into Chen Ruxue's hand, "Xiaoxue, take this money first, don't think it's too little, when your father and I earn more in the future, we will give it to you every day.
You've been working really hard lately. This family relies on you for everything, inside and out."
"Mom, please don't say that. I just paid so little money, there's really no need to do this.
Besides, you and Dad have helped me a lot, taking care of the kids and taking care of the household. Without you, I wouldn't be able to live the free life I do now."
"That's right, Mom! Listen to Xiaoxue. You and Dad don't have to worry about money. If it really doesn't work out, I can go out and find a job to earn money." Ye Haonan was touched when he saw his parents like this.
Before, he had always thought that he would rely on his wife's money for the next few years, and after he graduated, he could start a career and work hard to earn money to support his family.
At that time, the daughter-in-law will no longer have the pressure of supporting the family and can freely do what she wants.
Now it seems that he took it for granted.
He felt relieved, but his parents were still worried about him, fearing that he would be disliked by his wife.
Now, for his sake, I started setting up a stall to earn money, just so that he can live a better life in this family.
Ye Haonan felt that he was really wrong and extremely unfilial.
When Ye's mother heard that Ye Haonan was going out to find work, she quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, your father and I are here. Just focus on your studies."
"Mom, Dad, listen to me, if you're worried because Haonan doesn't make money, there's no need to be.
Since I married him, I must regard him as my family. Since he is family, spending his money is the same as spending my money.
Besides, he won't be like this forever. After a few years, I believe that with his abilities, he will be able to achieve great things.
By then, only good days await us.”
Chen Ruxue is not bragging, but she has a clear understanding of this era.
She knew very well that in a few years, anyone with some ideas and abilities, as long as they could endure hardship, would be able to achieve success.
Mother Ye knew that Chen Ruxue was really unhappy, so she didn't dare to insist any further. "Well... well, then the old man and I will continue to run the stall, and you guys can handle your own business."
When going to bed at night, Ye Haonan hugged Chen Ruxue and didn't speak for a long time.
"Ye Haonan, what are you thinking about?"
"Xiaoxue, what do you think about me taking a leave of absence from school?"
"Why do you want to drop out of school? You're not really upset by what mom said!"
"No, not really. The main reason is that I have nothing to do almost half of the time at school.
Plus, my mom's been worried, so I thought, why not just drop out of school? Actually, it would be even better if I didn't have to go to school on weekdays, and only went when I had exams."
"In that case, why don't you go to school tomorrow and ask the teacher or the principal.
Anyway, I see that you always get first place in the exams, so you should be able to make some concessions!" Chen Ruxue saw that he seemed to have made up his mind and stopped trying to persuade him.
"So what do you want to do in the future? Trading?"
