Chapter 440 Shu Yu Deceives Da Bao
After Da Bao finished shouting, he realized that Shu Yu and the others were still standing in the yard. He felt like he had found a savior and rushed to the old lady to complain without saying a word.
"Grandma, I don't know why, but my mother insists on forcing me to study, which I absolutely hate. Grandma, please help me persuade her, can I skip school tomorrow?"
The old lady looked slightly embarrassed, and her eyes darted away.
But Liang immediately betrayed her, "Hahaha, what's the use of you going to your grandma? It was your grandma who suggested that you go to school."
Da Bao stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his face showing a look of betrayal.
The old lady turned her head and glared at Liang Shi, then coughed lightly to comfort him, saying, "Da Bao, Grandma wants you to study because it's for your own good."
"What's wrong with me? Look at my hands, they're almost ruined."
"This..." After all, he was her own grandson. Seeing his hand so swollen, the old lady felt sorry for him and lowered her head to gently blow on it twice.
Despite her heartache, she remained steadfast in her belief that Da Bao should go to school.
She couldn't explain it clearly, so she looked to Shu Yu for help.
Shu Yu almost burst out laughing at the old lady's expression. Amused, she walked over to Da Bao, pulled up a stool, sat down opposite him, and asked, "Da Bao, you don't like studying, so what do you like?"
"I like to eat."
Everyone else looked speechless, but Shu Yu nodded. "You like to eat, so you want to be a chef in the future?"
"A cook?" No, he didn't want to be anything. He just wanted to stay home and have something to eat when he was hungry.
Shu Yu: "Yes, if you become a chef, you can eat whatever you want, and you can even eat things that no one else has ever eaten before."
Da Bao slurped his saliva, "Then I'll be the cook."
Shu Yu was speechless at his hasty decision, but then again, dreams can change.
"So, in the future, do you want to be a chef in your own shop, or a chef in another restaurant?"
"Of course I'll open my own shop."
Shu Yu nodded again, "That's a great idea. You're eight years old now, so it's about time to start planning. For example, where should you open your shop? Where will there be a lot of foot traffic? How many people should you hire? And if you make money, who will manage the money?"
"Of course I should keep the money myself. Why should I hand it over?"
Shu Yu shrugged helplessly. "But you don't study and you can't read, so of course you can't understand the account books. So you have to find an accountant to help you manage the accounts and money. But if the accountant knows a lot, he will take advantage of you because you can't read or do math and try to cheat you out of your money. Anyway, you won't know even if he takes the money, since you can't read."
"I, I..." Although the matter was still unresolved, Da Bao was already panicked by her description. "Then I won't open the shop anymore. I'll go work as a cook in another restaurant."
"I see. But the head chefs in those restaurants all have to start as cooks. Cooks can't eat whatever they want; they can only eat what others have left over. It takes at least five or six years to work as a kitchen helper. Someone like you who can't read might have to take ten years."
Da Bao was shocked. "Does that mean I'll have to eat leftovers for the next ten years?"
Shu Yu suppressed her laughter and nodded seriously, "Yes."
