After get off work, Su Le and his friends returned to the Su family compound. Su Can listened to everyone's report on today's performance, and quickly followed suit, handing the extra money in the cash box to Xu Hu.
Su Le looked at Su Fugui, who was in better condition today than yesterday.
Su Fugui looked at the two older children and said to Su Can and the others, "It's time to send them to school. Otherwise, they won't be able to keep up."
Su Can nodded. He was afraid before, but now that nothing was wrong, he wasn't worried anymore. "Okay, I'll have Xiao Qi check out the school tomorrow."
Su Fugui nodded. Yu Qi and Song Wanwan came along to help with the cooking, which made things much easier for Chen Yao and Xia Le.
Yu Qi was reluctant to add any seasoning at all, and always used very little. Xia Le also had a strong taste now, so more seasoning made the food taste better. "More, more."
Yu Qi added a little more with a distressed look on his face.
Chen Yao smiled and said, "Don't be reluctant. Our family runs a supply and marketing cooperative. If you run out, you can always get more."
Yu Qi stopped being reserved when she heard this and started playing. Song Wanwan did the same. Su Le walked in at this time, looked at them, and waited for them to finish cooking before starting to make milk tea.
Song Wanwan and Yu Qi felt distressed again. That was candy! How expensive! "Lele, what are you doing?" Song Wanwan asked.
Su Le stir-fried the sugar color and said, "We make milk tea. You haven't tried it before. We also opened a shop."
Yu Qi asked, "Le Le, how many stores do you have?"
Su Le thought for a moment and said, "Nine, maybe. I might open more later. I'll open them when I think of something new to open."
Yu Qi and Song Wanwan exchanged a look of disbelief. "Amazing!" The only word they could think of was "amazing." They couldn't think of any other words for a moment.
Su Le continued to cook with a smile. Soon, a large pot was ready. Each person was given a cup, and the four people helped to carry it over.
When everything was ready, Su Fugui took the first chopstick and put the chicken leg into Su Le's bowl again. Su Le grabbed the chicken leg and started eating, "Sister-in-law's cooking is so delicious!"
The meal was divided into three tables, and it suddenly became more lively.
After everyone finished eating, they started taking their study materials to the courtyard next door. Su Can and the others were all confused. What was going on? The four people followed them and saw that the courtyard was already full of people studying.
Su Le asked, "Brother Can, Brother Tian, you haven't read for a long time, right?"
Both of them lowered their heads in embarrassment. Su Le pointed at Xu Hu and said, "Go find Xu Hu. He knows where the books are. Now that you're back, you should start studying. Who knows when the college entrance exam will resume."
Su Can and the others watched as Xu Hu and the others worked hard to learn. They didn't want to be left behind, as they didn't want others to say they relied on connections. They would rely on their own strength in the future. The family originally had some business people, but Su Honghai didn't let them touch it.
Xu Hu looked at the two of them and gave them two sets of high school materials, which they also watched while studying.
Yu Qi and Song Wanwan hadn't even graduated from junior high school. Years of being housewives and taking care of children had left them without the confidence to pick up a book. They returned to the yard to play with the other children.
When Chen Yao saw them coming back, she asked in confusion, "Why don't you go study?"
Yu Qi scratched her fingers awkwardly. "We hadn't even finished junior high school at the time. We had to start a family, have kids, and take care of them. We couldn't afford to read anymore."
Chen Yao said with a smile, "What's there to be afraid of? The Chairman said that women hold up half the sky. Although you have retreated to the second line, who can predict what the future will be like? Learn more now, so that you will have greater confidence to do what you want in the future. When the children grow up and learn, and ask you questions they don't know, will you say you don't know? When they have their own circles of life, what will you do? Will you stay at home to watch over them? Those children next door have all started learning since elementary school. Learning is not for others to learn. Once they learn, it becomes their ability. In the future, they will not be trapped in a small world, but will only be able to display their own talents. Women should not be appendages of men, but learn to be themselves."
This was the first time that Yu Qi and Song Wanwan heard such remarks. Their mothers used to say that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, and their mothers-in-law said that a woman only needs to take care of the family and solve the worries of men.
They were lost in thought, and the other children were also infected by the atmosphere of learning, and they all looked to Chen Yao and Xia Le for lessons. The two of them answered their questions and explained the problems to them with gentle faces.
Yu Qi and Song Wanwan looked at them unconsciously, at those children. They used to be like that too.
Song Wanwan was younger than Yu Qi and thought things through quickly, so she pulled Yu Qi aside. Su Le smiled and prepared a set of elementary school test papers for them to write.
On Li Zichen's side, four soldiers asked him, "Let's go over tonight. I heard that the letters Sun Yanhai sent me were all praising my sister-in-law's intelligence and ability. We also want to go and see the store."
Li Zichen thought that everyone should be studying now, "Tomorrow, I will take you to see it early tomorrow morning."
The four nodded and agreed to meet at the train station.
Li Zichen also returned to the temporary hotel. There was no news from his drivers, and there was no news from the police either.
Li Zichen didn't fall asleep until late at night, but within a few hours, his body clock had already woken him up. He washed, dressed, and had a light breakfast before heading to the station. Unexpectedly, four people had arrived earlier than him and even bought him a ticket.
The five people boarded the train and arrived at noon. Li Zichen did not let them buy lunch boxes. He took them to Chengle Restaurant to eat.
Zhang Yi had rested for four days and had already returned home. When Zhang Liang saw that it was Li Zichen, he personally collected the cash and made fried rice for him. Everyone sighed in admiration after eating the rice, saying that the fried rice was also very delicious.
After they finished eating, Li Zichen took them to a shoe store and a clothing store. Everyone shook their heads. They were not going to consider it. They were just very interested in the milk tea shop that Sun Yanhai mentioned.
Everyone went to the fruit shop and shook their heads again. Then they went to the dessert shop. Everyone tried a little and found it better than egg cake. After hesitating for a while, they went to the milk tea shop. Su Le and Xu Jiaojiao were queuing up to buy milk tea at this time.
Li Zichen ran forward. The four people behind him didn't understand what was happening and ran after him, thinking something had happened. Then they heard Li Zichen shout, "Wife!"
Su Le turned around in surprise, asked Xu Jiaojiao to help line up, and walked out. "Why are you here?" The four people behind him popped their heads out from both sides. "Sister-in-law is so beautiful!"
Su Le smiled and said, "Hello."
Taking them to sit at the rest table, Xu Jiaojiao, who was very worldly-wise, ordered five different drinks.
Sitting next to Su Le, Li Zichen tacitly did not mention Li Ningwei, but only introduced these four people to her.
Su Le nodded and responded one by one. "You can go check out the burger shop later. It's a new one we opened. It's making good profits right now."
