Chapter 218: Traveling to Hai City during the Summer Vacation
After the summer, the pie shop closes a few hours later than before. It used to close at 6 o'clock, but now it closes at 8 o'clock.
Ever since Gu Jianhua took over the bakery, Gu's father and his family no longer have to stay in the bakery all day. They can just go there during the busy lunch period.
The rest of the time I go out for a stroll.
However, Su's mother and Gu's mother are women after all, so they stay in the shop and rarely go out. But Su's father and Gu's father have resumed their daily fishing.
I also got to know a few other old guys who love fishing.
Su He went to the store to help on Saturdays and Sundays, allowing Su's mother and mother to have a rest.
After get off work in the evening, I came directly to the store.
It is now mid-June and summer vacation is coming soon. Su He wants to take advantage of this summer vacation to let the four elders go traveling and visit other cities.
I told Gu Jianhua about this idea, and Gu Jianhua was like, "Who will take them on the trip? They can't do it on their own, right?"
Although his parents-in-law and mother-in-law are in good health and his mother-in-law can read, they are in their seventies after all and he is afraid that something might happen on the road.
Su He, "Let Chang Yi and Chang An take care of him. They don't have anything to do during the summer vacation."
Gu Jianhua, "Then you can ask your eldest daughter and eldest son when the time comes."
"I'll ask tomorrow."
At eight o'clock in the evening, it was time to get off work, so the couple closed the shop and came to the courtyard.
There is a TV, and they come to watch TV every night after get off work.
When Zhang Ning saw Su He and Gu Jianhua coming in, he poked Qingmu, meaning that his uncle and aunt were back and they should tell them what was going on.
Qingmu came to find Su He, a little nervous. He scratched his head and said, "Aunt, I want to talk to you about something."
Su He was eating grapes and gave him a small bunch.
"What is it?"
Qingmu wanted to tell her about his idea of setting up a stall after get off work, and he said, "Aunt, I promise I won't delay my work."
"You're talking about this. I was just about to talk to you two about this."
Originally, when the couple came, Su He thought that after the weather got warmer and they were familiar with Beijing, he would let them set up a stall in the square or other crowded places after get off work to earn some extra money.
Although Su Ho was not very close to Sister Gu, that happened when she was young, and her nephew was quite good, so he would definitely help her if he could.
Aoki was very surprised to hear this. He didn't expect that his aunt had already planned it a long time ago.
He said, "Thank you, aunt. We both promise not to delay our work."
Su He waved his hands, "Why thank me? You two should work hard and see if you can buy a shop next year. Once you have a shop, everything will be easy."
"Yeah." Aoki nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
He took the small bunch of grapes Su He gave him and returned to Zhang Ning. "Eat it."
Zhang Ning took the grapes and asked, "What did my aunt say?"
Qingmu told him what Su He had said. Zhang Ning was delighted to hear it. "Really?"
"Of course it's true."
"Okay, let's go to the square to sell clothes after get off work tomorrow and stop watching TV."
The clothing store closes at five o'clock, so they have three hours to sell until eight o'clock. They can definitely sell a lot of clothes in three hours.
"Um."
From selling clothes and their wages, they can make at least 200 yuan a month. By the end of the year, they will definitely have saved enough money to buy a shop.
The couple is full of hope for the future.
Zhang Ning didn't eat the grapes given by Qingmu. She gave them to her girlfriend Sitian.
These grapes were bought by Grandma Su, and they had already eaten them before my uncle and aunt came back.
Grapes are expensive, but very sweet.
Zhang Ning dreamed of the day when he and his wife could buy a yard like this and put home appliances such as a refrigerator, washing machine, TV and fan in the house.
Then the three of them would sit together and watch TV in the evening, with washed fruits such as tomatoes, grapes, or watermelons placed on the table beside them.
Oh, it’s wonderful to think about it.
At this moment, Zhang Ning was full of motivation. She thought that as long as they worked hard, they would be able to live such a life sooner or later.
The next day.
Su He went to work at the school and asked Chang Yi about it.
"My dear, do you have any plans for summer vacation?"
Arrangements? Not at the moment. Chang Yi shook his head, "What's wrong, Mom?"
Su He, "If you don't have any plans, I'll take your grandma and grandpa to travel around this summer."
"I'll go to the Medical University and ask your brother."
Chang Yi has no opinion, "Okay."
Su He went to ask Chang'an, but Chang'an had no arrangements, so the matter was settled and they went traveling during the summer vacation.
As for where to go? Let's discuss it together.
The first reaction of the four elders upon learning about this was,
“We don’t need to travel.”
"Yeah, better not waste that money."
Su He, "What are you talking about, Mom and Dad? You didn't have the chance before, but now you have the chance. Why don't you go out and take a look while you are still able to move."
Su's mother and Gu's mother were more concerned about money, but Su's father and Gu's father just let the children do what they wanted. "Okay, the children asked us to go on a trip, so let's go."
"I think so too. While I can still move around, I should go around and have a look." These words were said by Su's father.
Mother Gu asked, "Where are we going?"
Apart from their Meng Province and Beijing City, she really doesn't know much about other places.
Xiao He had told her about several provinces in their country before, but she had forgotten them because she had grown old.
Su He took out a map of China and said, "Please choose where you want to go."
"From now on, Mom and Dad, you should go on a trip every summer vacation and try to visit all of China."
Mother Su laughed and said, "We are all old bones. By the time we have traveled all over China, our bones will have fallen apart."
"That can't be possible, mom. Walking is healthier." Su He also laughed.
The people present were all the same. Apart from their own Mongolian Province, the only other place they had been to was Beijing.
"How about we go to Hai City?" Chang Yi suggested.
Her second uncle's cousin Xingran was studying in Dahai City. She heard that Dahai City was more developed and its infrastructure was better than that of Beijing City.
Everyone, "Okay, let's go to Haishi."
Grandpa, grandma, grandma's sister, and brother all went traveling during the summer vacation. Changjun and Changhuan also wanted to go, but Su He did not agree.
"You two are still young. Going so far away, what if you get kidnapped by traffickers?"
"Be good, I'll go later."
The two kids said, "No, we want to go now."
Mother Gu felt sorry for her two grandchildren and said, "Xiao He, why don't you bring Chang Jun and Chang Huan along as well? We have several adults here and we are sure they can take good care of them."
Su He, "No, Mom, let's wait until next time. We can let them go next time."
The four elders are all old, and they have no energy to look after the children after walking around all the time.
The same goes for Changyi and Changan. They have to take care of four of them, their grandparents and their parents, and they don't have the energy to look after the children.
Changjun and Changhuan are now at an active age and will definitely not be quiet along the way, so they cannot go with them.
The couple can take it with them when they go out.
