Chapter 329 Doctor Gu invites you to dinner

"The original couple? How old is the boss lady?" Aunt Xu was shocked.

Aunt Jiang, "The boss lady is 44 years old this year, the boss is 50 years old, and the boss lady is 6 years old."

Aunt Xu, "Oh my goodness, the boss lady looks so young, only one year younger than me."

The man is 44 and she is 45, but the man looks like he is in his 30s at 44.

Aunt Jiang said, "Yes, the boss lady looks young and well-maintained, and so does the boss. Can you tell he's fifty? He looks to be in his early forties at most."

"That's true. The boss is five years older than me." Aunt Xu agreed.

Then he said, "But what does our boss's wife do for a living? Why is the child always taken care of by the boss?"

Aunt Jiang, "She is a teacher at Peking University."

Aunt Xu listened and said, "Oh, a teacher from Peking University."

"In fact, the boss has opened so many stores, the boss's wife can resign. How much does a teacher make a month? It's better for her to go home and look after her grandchildren and the family, and be happy and free."

She thinks it is not good to let men take care of children. Children should be raised by women, and men will have to go out and have sex to make money.

Aunt Jiang, "What are you talking about? He is a Peking University teacher, you want him to resign, what are you thinking?"

"Moreover, these shops are all managed by the boss' wives, not the bosses themselves. The bosses just sit back and do nothing."

She knew that Aunt Xu was a traditional person. For example, if her daughter-in-law had to give birth to a son, the woman would have to fetch water for the man to wash his feet, which meant respecting the man as the sky.

But she never expected that the tradition would extend to the boss and his wife.

Aunt Xu was surprised. "Really? Now that you mention this, I understand. The boss lady must be a strong woman. She makes all the decisions at home and outside."

"In fact, women shouldn't be like that. They should let go and let men take care of things. Since ancient times, men have been responsible for the outside world and women for the inside world. We women just need to take care of the household."

"Because men and women are good at different things."

Aunt Jiang clicked her tongue and said, "Stop it. Just tell me these things, don't say them in front of the couple."

"I won't tell you."

"Besides, it doesn't matter even if I said it. It's the truth." Aunt Xu smiled.

Aunt Jiang also laughed, "Then according to what you said, why did you come out to work?"

Men are the breadwinners outside and women are the homemakers. Women take care of household chores at home while men make money outside. Why did she come out?

Aunt Xu said, "I have no choice. My husband died of illness last year. I have three children. How can I support them if I don't work?"

"How old are your three children?"

Aunt Xu said, "The eldest son is 17 and is in high school, the second daughter is 14 and is in junior high school, and the third son is 10 and is in elementary school."

Aunt Jiang: "Your family's situation is indeed difficult."

"Don't you plan to find another one?"

Aunt Xu: "I've thought about it, but there's no suitable one. Besides, at my age, what can I find?"

Aunt Jiang nodded, "That's right, but you had a child late. You were 28 when you gave birth to your eldest child?"

Aunt Xu, "This is my second marriage. The first one didn't work and it took several years to finish."

"Oh, so that's why? No wonder." Aunt Jiang expressed her understanding.

Aunt Xu, "Yes, you have wasted ten years of my youth. You don't know how beautiful I was when I was young. I was the prettiest girl in our village."

Aunt Jiang has a good temper. She usually agrees with what others say. For example, now, "I can see that you have beautiful eyebrows and eyes."

Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm old now."

Aunt Jiang consoled her, "It's not bad. 45 is middle-aged. Look at the boss and his wife. They are about the same age as us, but they look younger than us. They know how to dress and take care of themselves."

"You put those cold creams on your face every day, and you look younger."

Aunt Xu believed Aunt Jiang's words of comfort, "Really? I never used vanishing cream before, I only used Gala oil."

Aunt Jiang, "You get what you pay for. Vanishing cream is definitely better than Gala Oil."

“Yes, yes, yes.”

So the next day, Aunt Jiang saw her colleague Aunt Xu putting on makeup, applying powder, drawing eyebrows and applying lipstick, without missing a single thing.

People do look younger and more energetic when they dress up. Aunt Xu gets a lot of compliments from people at work, from the front living room to the back kitchen.

"Oh, Aunt Xu, you look so beautiful today," said the waiter.

Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Really? It's not as good as when we were young."

...........

Time quickly came to June.

The sales of the ice-boiled lamb shop came out.

Excluding the cost of more than 300,000.

Gu Jianhua was excited, "Wife, I tell you we have to open a big store, big stores make money!"

Su He had not expected this either. She guessed that the monthly sales of the ice-boiled mutton would not be low, because shabu-shabu mutton is expensive!

When she went to other hotpot restaurants, a plate of mutton cost several dollars, and a plate of ice-cooked mutton at her restaurant was not cheap either.

A table of guests would have to eat several dishes, so she thought the turnover should be around 200,000, but she didn't expect it to be over 300,000.

She hugged Gu Jianhua and looked at him with admiration.

"Oh my, my husband is really amazing. Your business is worth more than ten of mine."

This compliment made Gu Jianhua feel embarrassed. He smiled.

"No, the services in our store, free opening, discounts, these are all what you thought."

Su He, "Our monthly income is 500,000, right?"

Gu Jianhua, "It's over 500,000, almost 600,000."

Su He, "That's more than 7 million a year."

"Jianhua, we have become rich!"

Gu Jianhua smiled and said, "There will be no problem for us to travel in our later years."

"Let's go ask Chang'an if he wants to buy a car." Su He called.

Buying a car?

Changan wanted to buy it, of course. He asked, "Mom and Dad, have you managed to get the funds back?"

Su He, "It's turned around."

Gu Jianhua, "It's no problem for me to buy you a car."

I picked a Sunday to take Changan to buy it. We bought a Santana again, and Changan picked a white one.

Mother Gu was surprised, "We have four cars now?"

Su He smiled, "I guess so."

Mother Gu said, "Oh, you have achieved so much. It's a pity that you can't go back home and show off to my old sisters."

Father Gu said, "You are still thinking about them? Just show off to the old ladies in Beijing."

Gu's mother thought the same thing, so when she went to the park to dance and practice Tai Chi, she mentioned the fact that her family had a car, intentionally or unintentionally.

"My son and his wife really waste money! These young people don't know how to save money at all. Whatever money they have, they spend it all!"

A few old ladies who were chatting well with Gu's mother asked,

"What's up? What's going on?"

Gu's mother said, "Don't we have three cars? One for my granddaughter and grandson-in-law, one for my son and daughter-in-law, and a big truck for transporting goods."

"They bought another car for my eldest grandson a few days ago!"

"You said that one car is enough for this family, why buy so many? Won't it cost money to fill up the gas tank? The car is just wasted."

Everyone: “….”

It turns out that this old lady is here to show off to them!

So annoying!
