"Of course I'm sure!"
Cai Junze answered firmly!
Liu Shulin was silent for a moment, looking at her son with her bright eyes.
After a moment, she said calmly, "Forget it. I've already decided to hire help in the future, so there's no need for you to work for me."
Cai Junze was shocked, "Mom, you, you want help?"
This was a bit beyond his expectations!
My mother has been running this shop for more than ten years and has never hired any help. Why is she suddenly thinking of hiring help now?
Liu Shulin nodded slightly. "Yes, I need help. I can handle the store, but it's tiring to be so busy all the time. If I could hire someone to help out, it would lighten a lot of my burden. I'm thirty-five now, and it's time to enjoy life instead of working non-stop and endlessly, wearing myself out."
In her previous life, she exhausted herself physically, and was angered by this prodigal son, and finally died!
Looking back now, it was really not worth it at all!
I get up early and work late, working myself to death to earn money, while this prodigal son squanders the money unscrupulously and works himself to death!
Of course, this was only one of the reasons why she wanted to hire someone.
Another reason is that she wants to expand her business!
If you want to expand your business, you can’t rely on yourself alone!
Therefore, hiring helpers is very necessary!
Cai Junze frowned, then smiled again, "It's only right for mother to ask for help. After all, this way, you won't have to work so hard. But, mother, my one hundred taels..."
He still couldn't forget the one hundred taels.
"That hundred taels..." Liu Shulin's eyes wavered, her emotions unclear as she glanced at her son. "Since I'm planning to hire help, the store naturally doesn't need you to work for me. Of course, this store still needs you. After all, you're the future heir to this store, so you can't just sit there and do nothing."
She paused, then continued, "Since you are the future heir of the store, it is only natural that you participate in its affairs. Naturally, you won't be paid much."
"When I retire, everything in the store, including the profits, will be yours. So, why do you still want wages?"
The smile on Cai Junze's face froze, and the look in his eyes darkened a little, "Mother, are you still not going to give me this hundred taels?"
Liu Shulin sighed slightly, averted her eyes, and looked aside. "I still say the same thing as before. If you want money, go earn it yourself, don't try to take advantage of me. Besides, I also said that the store will be yours from now on. Even if you come to help out in the store, it's your responsibility. This is your responsibility, not a tool for you to beg me for money."
Cai Junze's hand holding the broom trembled slightly, "Mom, weren't you just teasing me just now?"
Liu Shulin's expression was calm. "I'm not kidding you. I'm just asking tentatively. I don't have a final consent."
Cai Junze: “…”
I feel helpless and angry!
"Mom, how about I consider this money as a loan from you? When I make money myself in the future, I'll pay you back. How about that?"
Seeing his mother remained silent, he continued, "I owe so much money to others. Even if I really work hard to earn money, I won't be able to earn it in the short term!"
"But, they asked me to pay back the money, but there is a deadline!"
"So, I want to borrow this money from you, is that not okay?"
Liu Shulin said coldly: "No!"
If I borrow it, do I have to pay it back?
Just listen to what he says!
Cai Junze wanted to throw the broom in his hand fiercely, anger welling in his eyes, but he still restrained himself and spoke to his mother, saying, "Mom, you neither give me money nor lend me money, so what do you want from me? Do you hope that when the deadline comes, I can't pay the money back and get beaten up badly? Is this what you want to see? If so, then you are too cruel, aren't you?"
"Yes, I am cruel." Liu Shulin's tone was still so calm, "If I wasn't cruel, would I be a fool to let you deceive me?"
Cai Junze was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What do you mean, mother?"
Liu Shulin turned her head, gave him a cold look, and said, "Cai Junze, do you think I'm stupid and someone you can deceive whenever you want?"
Cai Junze subconsciously tightened his grip on the broom in his hand, looking a little guilty, and said, "I didn't lie to you! Mom, when did I lie to you?"
Liu Shulin stared at him for a long moment and said, "Tell me, do you want to admit it yourself, or do you want me to expose you?"
Cai Junze took a half step back, an unnatural look on his face, and said, "Mom, I really don't understand what you are saying."
Liu Shulin's expression instantly turned colder, and she said in a cold voice, "It seems like you want me to expose you, right?"
Cai Junze forced a smile and said, "Mom, don't scare me. I, I'm not lying to you. I really am not."
Liu Shulin's eyes flashed coldly as she stabbed her son and said, "Since that's the case, I won't be polite. A few days ago, when you were kidnapped, were those people you hired to stage a show and extort money from me?"
Cai Junze was suddenly stunned!
The blood seems to have solidified!
"No, no, that's not true..." His mother's sudden revelation caught him off guard. "No, it's absolutely not true!"
Liu Shulin just looked at him coldly. He continued to explain, "Mom, that thing is true. I was really kidnapped by them. You saw it at the time! How could I possibly have teamed up with others to stage this to extort money from you?"
