Chapter 110
"She didn't say much, just that we now have the means to make a living." Wen Shu held the silver in her pocket, a faint smile on her lips. "If the shop can operate steadily, we can move out and live separately. Mother will be more at ease, and Wenji will be able to attend school."
Pei Lingjun leaned against the door, and after she finished speaking, he saw no further comment. He raised an eyebrow in dissatisfaction and asked her, "You take care of everyone else, but what about me?"
He straightened up abruptly, strode over, his brows furrowed tightly, and demanded, "What about me? Haven't you thought about my future?"
What a hypocrite! She didn't even care whether his reckless arrival would bring her trouble, but he wanted to stay for a long time.
So that his betrothed fiancée could kill her again?
Wen Shu took a deep breath, thinking this in her heart, but she dared not say it aloud.
"Brother Lingjun, aren't you going back to Jinzhou? The Wen family is gone..."
She kept her head down, staring intently at the surface of the soft-soled embroidered shoes, until she finally heard a very soft humming sound coming from above her.
"I'm not going back!"
When I looked up again, Pei Lingjun was already far away.
Wen Shu quickly followed after him, remaining silent behind him.
Why are you getting angry all of a sudden?
...
"The location of this shop on South Street is absolutely top-notch!" The middle-aged, slightly overweight shop owner, who was dozing off, saw a man and a woman who looked like a married couple walk in and hurriedly began to promote his business.
The two are a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and they look extremely well-matched and pleasing to the eye.
However, judging from the fact that this young man's family seems to be quite well-off, one must have a good eye when renting a shop.
The portly shopkeeper smiled and pointed to several prime locations, then said to Pei Lingjun ingratiatingly, "Look at the locations of these shops. One is right at the entrance, with high foot traffic. This one is next to Renxin Medical Clinic. If the old owner of that shop hadn't passed away a month ago, it wouldn't have been rented out. Don't you think so?"
Pei Lingjun took out the papers, looked them over carefully, and then handed them to Wen Shu, asking, "What do you think?"
Wen Shu stroked the papers with her fingertips, which Pei Lingjun noticed; she always did this when she was thinking.
"It's really unnecessary to open it at the stall, but the location next to Renxin Medical Clinic is quite good."
After a patient's consultation, their first choice is to get their medication from a nearby pharmacy.
The fat boss took in the interaction between the two and thought to himself, "I didn't realize that this young man is henpecked!"
He changed his gaze and laughed heartily, "This lady is right. If you want to open a pharmacy, opening it next to a clinic would be the best choice. Such a perfect location is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Don't believe me? Ask your husband."
Wen Shu's hand trembled involuntarily as she held the paper. She abruptly raised her face and instinctively retorted, "I didn't—"
"—Indeed excellent." The young man took the paper from her hand, his eyes gleaming with amusement as he looked at her, grinding the words between his teeth, each syllable reaching her ears with exceptional clarity. "Don't you think so, Madam?"
Wen Shu was speechless.
How much rent?
"Not much, not much, fifteen strings of cash a month," the fat shopkeeper replied with a smile. It's rare to find someone so readily asking about rent.
"Fifteen strings of cash?!" Wen Shu immediately put down the rental notice, frowning. "That's way too expensive..."
