After returning home, Liu Qiao curiously asked Chen Yun: "Have you decided what to do?"

"No rush. Let's get the notarization done first and let the old man go first. Some people are lazy and I'll ask you to help me get rid of him. Then I'll ask someone to help me paint the wall. I'll take Zi Rui home to make some handicrafts. Once the wall is dry, I'll start."

Although she wants to open her own shop, she must take all these rules into consideration.

Liu Qiao nodded involuntarily, "Yunyun, you are really getting more and more capable."

Chen Yun held onto Liu Qiao's arms with both hands and said with a smile: "All of this depends on Brother Liu Qiao's help. Besides, I don't want the business to be too good. Just average is enough. This way I can take care of my son and my husband..."

"Please ask Mrs. Chen to support me..." Liu Qiao kissed her.

Seeing Liu Qiao’s support, Chen Yun felt suddenly full of strength. Buying groceries the next day was difficult because Zi Rui was so big after all, and it was too heavy for her to carry him. She was also afraid that if she took the trailer out, someone would take the child away when she wasn’t paying attention, so she could only carry him in her arms when buying groceries.

Chen Dafen also went out with her. Chen Dafen knew that Chen Yun was now unemployed and had become a housewife. She felt a sense of pleasure in her heart, seeing that Chen Yun always had her mother-in-law to cook for her when she went to and from work. She always felt superior to them, but now she was worse off than them. At least her son had started school and she only needed to send him to school. Chen Yun still had to take care of a toddler, and one could imagine how hard it was.

"Are you going to buy groceries too?"

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Yes, buy more today so that you can eat more for a few days."

The vegetable market was very dirty. Chen Yun held her child in one hand and bought a lot of vegetables and breakfast with the other. Although she was very tired, she was not tired in her heart. With a husband and son who loved her, she naturally did not feel tired.

"Baby, can mommy buy you some eggs?"

"Balls..." The baby clapped his hands.

After buying the food, the baby came to Chen Yun's house with his arms around her neck. In fact, the baby was naughty. When she was busy, the baby crawled on the carpet by himself. When she looked at him, he giggled. Chen Yun clenched her fists and said, "Baby, you will do business with your mother in the future."

Fortunately, now that she has stopped breastfeeding, Chen Yun is not afraid to take the baby out. As usual, she stewed eggs and rice soup for lunch, and after drinking them, she wanted milk again.

Chen Yun prepared the milk powder. The baby leaned on the chair and drank the milk bottle while smiling at his mother. Chen Yun took the opportunity to make puppets. She made several puppets. When she finished, she told the baby to talk. When he took a nap, Chen Yun stewed the soup.

After Liu Qiao came back in the afternoon, he saw Chen Yun had prepared dinner, so he took the initiative to hold the child.

Chen Yun put the meal on the table: "Eat, let me hold the child, I drank some soup in advance." Liu Qiao could tell that the child was very tired from the training, so he should eat first.

She basically eats a full meal at noon and eats less in the afternoon. She drinks some soup while cooking. Now she puts the baby in her arms, and the baby still holds the bottle. Because of the baby, Chen Yun did not bring any jewelry. Liu Qiao especially loves the baby's cute appearance. After finishing the meal, he took the baby to play on the sofa.

Chen Yun drank her soup slowly at the table. She also discussed with Liu Qiao: "Let's go to the notary office tomorrow to transfer the house first, and then let the old couple move out."

Five hundred yuan is not a lot for Chen Yun, but the decoration will cost about 700 yuan, and it is difficult to make a profit.

Liu Qiao first accompanied her to transfer the house. Chen Yun did it smoothly because of her experience last time, but when it came to asking the elderly couple to move out, the man said that they would need half a month, and Liu Qiao almost agreed.

Chen Yun said, "Old man, since you have decided to give me the house, I have given you all the money. I am also in a hurry to do business. Just three days. If you have too much stuff, I will ask my husband to find someone to help you move it out."

"Oh, girl, you are..." The eldest master pretended to be embarrassed.

Chen Yun smiled and said, "It's not easy for anyone, right? In order to pay you, I have to borrow money from so many people, right? Just three days, and I will find a small team to come over after three days."

"You are such a..."

The eldest master kept mumbling, but Chen Yun turned a deaf ear to him.

This place is not worth much, and the house is not worth much either, but she knows that this place will definitely get better and better in the future. She had a lot of ideas in her mind, but when she saw the fat boy Zi Rui, she didn't dare to act rashly.

On the way back, Liu Qiao glanced at Chen Yun and asked, "Why only give him three days?"

"Come on, three days is too much for him, he might even skip five days. Let's ignore him, if you are free tomorrow, please help me find a handyman, we will first ask them to help me with the design. Just build a few cabinets and shelves, hang the ceiling, and paint." Chen Yun talked about the plan again.

Liu Qiao could only listen, and Chen Yun directly controlled the budget and would not take any extra money.

"Don't ask for more than three hundred dollars. A skilled worker will only charge three dollars at most. If it's more, just bargain with him and he will definitely come. I'll put the cigarettes in your pocket, and you can just pass on more cigarettes to other people when you go out." Chen Yun instructed.

He had never seen Chen Yun like this before. Liu Qiao was actually very capable, but he was shocked by how meticulous Chen Yun was in calculating details. Liu Qiao was not a big bargainer and did not like to haggle over small amounts, but since Chen Yun had given the order, he had no choice but to do it.

First he looked for a laborer and asked the logistics person where to find one. After finding the one, he contacted them. When they saw the military uniform he was wearing, they thought to themselves, what a stupid soldier, he was trying to trick him.

"Soldier, our current market price is five dollars. Tell me what you want to repair."

When Liu Qiao heard five yuan, he thought it was not expensive, but then he thought about what Chen Yun said and said, "You are too expensive. I will go find someone else."

Someone next to him said honestly, "I have three dollars."

When Liu Qiao heard that the price was right, he took him to the bungalow to see it. The man first asked him how he wanted to decorate it. Liu Qiao roughly explained the parts he wanted to decorate. The man calculated that it would cost one thousand yuan, and Liu Qiao told him his wife's budget, "We only have a budget of three hundred yuan."

People thought to themselves, she's dressed so nicely, yet she's still so picky.

He sighed and agreed. Liu Qiao also went to urge the old man according to Chen Yun's words. The old man had not packed up at all, but when he saw the worker coming, he had to pretend to pack up.

When Liu Qiao got home, he felt it was amazing. "Yunyun, you are really amazing. You don't know that someone once told me that he would charge five yuan for a major job, and I disagreed on the spot. And the person who asked us for the renovation actually wanted one thousand yuan, and I immediately said that I only had three hundred yuan."

Seeing Liu Qiao so proud, Chen Yun of course wanted to praise him: "Brother Liu Qiao, you are really amazing. I know all these things, but when people see my appearance, they will definitely deliberately deceive me. But when you stand there like this, no one dares to play tricks on you."

In fact, what she said was true. It was very inconvenient for her to hold the child. Only with Liu Qiao standing there did she feel confident.

Liu Qiao couldn't help but ask Chen Yun again: "What should we do after the renovation is completed?"

"Wait for the smell to dissipate, use this time to stock up on goods, make a sign, and then go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to apply for a license. That's about it." Chen Yun counted.

At this time, Chen Yun heard someone knocking on the door and hurried to open it. It was Zhu Xiaofang. Chen Yun was confused.

Zhu Xiaofang smiled and said, "Didn't you say you have nothing to do now? Our unit is looking for a cleaning lady. Oh, don't be disgusted. You just need to clean the bathroom and you don't have to go. You can bring your child over. It's only a few dozen yuan a month, which is quite a good deal."

What does this mean? She quit her job as a teacher in a public school and now works as a cleaner. Is she crazy?

"No, thank you." Chen Yun's face didn't look good either.

Zhu Xiaofang felt that her good intentions were being trampled upon. Such an easy job was snatched up by several people. She curled her lips and looked at Chen Dafen next door who was looking at her. She "kindly" introduced this job to Chen Dafen. Chen Dafen worked three jobs and earned about 200 yuan a month. She wanted to save for another two months before starting her own business.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaofang." Chen Dafen thanked.

Zhu Xiaofang smiled and said, "Why thank me? It's only natural for neighbors to do this."

Zhu Xiaofang is no longer the person who dares not offend anyone. She is now a manager-level person and is no longer the girl from the country who was afraid of this and that.

Chen Yun, who had closed the door, was still not angry, but Liu Qiao scolded her: "What the hell is that? Yunyun is not the kind of person who would do that kind of thing."

"Why are you angry with her? We should just do our own thing." Chen Yun didn't want to give up her children completely for the sake of business. Otherwise, she would open a snack bar, which is basically a sure-fire way to make money. But that kind of business is too busy and she doesn't know what will happen to her children.

Liu Qiao was still angry, but seeing that Chen Yun was still working, he took his child and went over to watch Chen Yun making handicrafts. Ordinary fabrics could quickly become beautiful dolls in her hands.

"I'm also planning on getting some rubber bands or hair ties, rub them in nicely and sell them there. I can open the shop at 6 pm on weekdays and go home at 6 pm," Chen Yun said.

It seemed that Chen Yun had thought of everything. Liu Qiao gave her a thumbs up and said, "Wife, I will come to your store to find you from now on."

Chen Yun fell into his arms. Liu Qiao had a son on his left and a wife on his right. He was very happy.

**

The old man saw that the workers had come and couldn't stay any longer, so he hurriedly moved out, which was even better. Chen Yun directly asked someone to paint the small yard at the back a little bit, adding more than 30 yuan, which was within the budget.

After all, Liu Qiao had limited time, so Chen Yun had no choice but to watch the renovation. She was also afraid that the baby would smell a bad odor, so she tried to go and take a look and come back without settling the bill first.

"Masters, I have to wait for my wife to come and inspect it, so please come here and wait for me in two days."

When Liu Qiao was taking a break, Chen Yun asked him to take money to settle the bill. In fact, Liu Qiao didn't have much money on him, and the money was all with Chen Yun, but Chen Yun knew that he was more persuasive than her.

Chen Yun always put Liu Qiao first and gave him enough face when outside. He knew that, so after helping the workers settle the money, he also helped Chen Yun to customize the billboard. The couple were not in a hurry to open the business immediately.

So she could go and look at the goods slowly with Liu Qiao. Chen Yun had a discerning eye and kept pulling Liu Qiao to look. When they were tired, they just bought some buns on the roadside. After a while, Chen Yun had picked up a lot of goods. Anyway, she had bought the shop now, so she didn't feel too urgent.

"Yunyun, are you tired?" Liu Qiao asked Chen Yun with concern.

He knew that Chen Yun did it all for the sake of her children. Her salary was not low, but it was still a little short of high. She opened a store to make money while not being looked down upon by others.

Otherwise, people like Zhu Xiaofang who suddenly became rich from poverty would ask their wives to work as cleaners. It is really doubtful whether they are sincere.

"Not tired. In fact, I used to be very lazy. You know, my parents would have spoiled me if I went back to my hometown. After I married into your family, your parents and you have been very kind to me. It's so hard for me to be able to be a little tired. This is also a precious treasure in my life! Don't worry, husband. These are only temporary. I think we will get better and better." Chen Yun smiled.

Other people would definitely complain about their parents-in-law, but Chen Yun would not. Instead, she would try to find a solution on her own, which made Liu Qiao feel even more guilty.

By the time Chen Dafen and Zhu Xiaofang realized what was happening, Chen Yun's store was slowly opening. Chen Yun tied her child to her body, categorized the items on the shelves, marked their prices, and placed all the small items, such as ear picks and nail clippers, in front of the counter. She wrapped the big dolls in plastic wrap and placed them high up. Many of the other items were imported goods, which looked inconspicuous, but had extremely high profits.

After Chen Yun put up the sign, the door opened as soon as it opened for business. On the first day, Chen Yun was busy, not because of business, but because it was inconvenient to cook in the store.

The next day, I had more experience. I got up in the morning, cooked dinner, put a coal stove in the store to boil some water, and stewed some eggs. At noon, I made milk for my son.

When no one was around, she would teach him to walk around the store. Neighbors would be curious, and Chen Yun would talk to them, but she wasn't particularly enthusiastic.

When she found that a girl asked her to borrow sanitary napkins on the first day, she simply bought a few large packages of sanitary napkins and put them at the back of the shelf. When someone bought them, she would wrap them in black plastic bags and give them to them.

Many junior high school girls have already started their menstruation and are often too embarrassed to open their teeth. Chen Yun earns as much as one yuan for every bag they buy. She made five yuan from selling this in the first three days of opening, but she didn't get discouraged and still went to the store. Sometimes Zhu Xiaofang and Chen Dafen passed by here after get off work and saw that there were few people here, and they both pouted.

Zhu Xiaofang simply felt that students nowadays had a hard time studying, so how could they have money to buy those little things. Chen Dafen even felt that Chen Yun wasted money by buying the property without knowing whether she could make money from it. She knew that Longcheng would not develop very well in the future, and buying such a property here would be of no use at all.

The author has something to say: Actually, Chen Yun is quite smart.
