Li Changke was still confused.
Qu Songsheng had already walked out of the snack bar and turned back to call him: "Go!"
Li Changke: "Ah—um, don't you need to tell Auntie?"
Qu Songsheng: "No need, she's just strolling along the road. She'll come back naturally when she sees us leaving."
Sure enough, after walking out of the snack bar, Li Changke looked up and saw Lin Wanxia holding Qu Manman standing at the gate of the county school opposite.
Seeing him looking over, she smiled at him.
Li Changke felt that Qu Songsheng and his wife were a little strange today, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
I had no choice but to follow Qu Songsheng silently.
Qu Manman was even more surprised when she saw her father taking Li Changke away.
I habitually asked myself: [Where is my dad going? Why did he take me away?]
After asking, she remembered that her own mother couldn't hear her even if she asked in her heart!
So she quickly said, "Mom, where is Dad going?"
"I don't know either." Lin Wanxia guessed, "Maybe he was sending Li Changke home."
【Send home? 】
Qu Manman felt even more puzzled: [I never sent it back on purpose before, what happened today?]
But it seems that Lin Wanxia doesn't know either.
She didn't ask, but just urged: "Mom, let's go back."
There is no one watching the snack bar right now, so the mother and daughter have to go back.
Summer vacation starts today and it’s the weekend.
The students from the county middle school had all gone home, so there wasn't much business in the snack bar, and Lin Wanxia could handle it all by herself.
But the summer vacation is at least two months long, even if there are individual cram schools and holiday refresher classes and literacy classes.
With thousands of fewer students, business will be much worse than before.
Back at the store, Qu Manman couldn't help but start thinking: [The business objectives need to change.]
[Previously, our clientele was primarily students, but now we have to change to include members of the public.]
[Roujiamo and Chuanchuanxiang are already quite famous on this street.]
However, imitators have begun to appear in the surrounding area, and without the support of regular students, the business is no longer popular.
[We need to promote special dishes to attract more customers.]
What special dishes should I recommend?
Qu Manman thought for a while, but didn't have much of an idea.
Before Li Changke came, she was thinking about ice drinks.
I simply brought my thoughts back to the drink.
Beverages have high profit margins, and if they sell well, they can be very profitable.
When it comes to delicious drinks in summer, the first choice is of course fruit tea.
There was no fruit tea in the Huaicheng market at that time, and seasonal fruits were not expensive.
Qu Manman immediately thought of the following: [Fresh Orange, Kumquat Lemon, Watermelon Mint, Taro Grape, Passion Fruit Dragon Ball, Mango Sago, Watermelon Smoothie, Red Bean Shaved Ice...]
[You can also add Arctic Ocean soda and ice cubes to the fruit tea to make a refreshing soda tea, ha...]
The more Qu Manman thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to her. She immediately pestered Lin Wanxia and asked, "Mom, I want to buy some fruit."
Well--
Lin Wanxia listened to Qu Manman and listed so many fruit teas in her mind.
I was stunned, wondering how my daughter knew so much. Could she even make tea?
When she suddenly heard Qu Manman want to buy some fruit, she immediately said, "Buy, buy, buy. Whatever fruit Manman wants, Mom will buy it all for you."
On the other side, Qu Songsheng took Li Changke back to Linzhuang where Li Changke's family lived.
Seeing that Qu Songsheng actually sent him home directly, Li Changke felt even more strange.
He quickly said, "Uncle, you don't have to send me home. I can go back by myself."
Qu Songsheng: "I know, and it's not just for you. I'm also going to visit my father-in-law."
"oh--"
Old Lin was from the same village as him, so Li Changke was speechless.
When they arrived at Li Changke's house, Qu Songsheng didn't say much to him.
Just one sentence: "Chang Ke, go home first, don't let your mother worry."
Then he waved and left.
Just leave like that?
Looking at Qu Songsheng's back as he hurried towards Lin Hongxian's house.
Li Changke suddenly understood what was wrong today?
Qu Songsheng was deliberately distancing himself from him.
Although the other person was smiling when talking to him, he was indeed distancing himself from him with his actions.
"Why?"
Li Changke didn't understand.
Why did Qu Songsheng suddenly distance himself from him?
Is it because I often annoy him, or is there another reason?
Thinking of this, Li Changke did not go home.
After walking around, he quietly went behind the Lin family's house.
Lin Hongxian was old and a little hard of hearing, so anyone who spoke to him had to speak louder.
Qu Songsheng is no exception.
He came to see Lin Hongxian and told him that he felt it was inappropriate to give Li Changke ten dollars every month.
Lin Hongxian sighed softly after hearing this: "What you did was indeed inappropriate."
"The worst thing about helping others is to do it slowly, over a long period of time, and without any purpose."
"Now that you realize your mistake, what are you going to do?"
Qu Songsheng: "Dad, I came to discuss this with you."
Qu Songsheng naturally didn't dare to reveal what Qu Manman said about Li Changke being an ungrateful person.
He could only say: "As the old saying goes, a peck of rice breeds gratitude, a peck of rice breeds hatred."
"Of course, I'm not saying that Chang Ke has a bad character."
"He's a good kid who always wants to help out in my shop."
"That's why I'm worried that if this continues for a long time, it will affect his mood and studies."
"If I could buy out the favor between the two families at once, it would be best if we never contacted each other again..."
Li Changke was outside and clenched his fists suddenly when he heard it.
