I originally wanted to tell Su Chenhao that there was a space inside the jade pendant, but the plan was interrupted.
Unable to sleep, Li Meihua simply sat on the girl's kang (heated brick bed).
“I just discussed it with your dad again. When you go to school, we'll give you extra money in addition to the tuition. Expenses are high outside, and it'll be better for the two of you to have money on you.”
"Mom, we'll talk about this later. I want to use this time to open the snack bar and pass on my skills to you and my sister-in-law. That way, I can leave with peace of mind."
“You’re right, the snack bar must be opened. From now on, the family’s income will depend on this shop.” Li Meihua touched her daughter’s hand. “You’ve grown up so much in the blink of an eye.”
"Mom, no matter what I become, I'll always be your daughter." Qiao Xiaoni leaned her head against Li Meihua's chest.
"Hmm!" Li Meihua stroked her daughter's head, and began to reminisce about the past again...
After an unknown amount of time, Qiao Xiaoni noticed that Li Meihua had stopped talking, so she opened her eyes and saw that Li Meihua was asleep against the wall with her eyes closed.
I glanced at the sky outside; the dark clouds had long since dispersed, and the moon hung high in the sky as if nothing had happened. This weather is so abnormal.
After helping Li Meihua onto the mattress and covering her with the quilt, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Su Chenhao had brought back his luggage, which was on the floor of the room. After tidying up, she lay down. She was covered with the blanket Su Chenhao had used, as if she were being held by him.
Silently crouching in the corner, I opened my eyes and glanced around. I couldn't go back to my space tonight, and it was almost dawn, so I might as well go to sleep.
...
the next day.
After a quick breakfast, Qiao Xiaoni and Su Chenhao discussed it and decided to go to the city today to arrange the later stages of the renovation.
First, he bought all the materials. Since there were things in the house, someone had to watch over them. Without saying a word, Qiao Xiaoshan packed his luggage and decided to live in the shop from now on.
After everything was ready, Qiao Xiaoni announced the start of the trip. The three of them chatted and laughed along the way, and time flew by. They arrived in town in no time.
I went to my own shop first, opened the door with my key, and found that the large lock on the door had been worn for too long and needed to be replaced.
Qiao Xiaoni tidied up the innermost room first, making it barely habitable.
There was no way to cook for the time being, so he could only buy some steamed buns and pickled vegetables at the market. Qiao Xiaoshan sighed.
"I haven't been able to eat meat lately."
Qiao Xiaoni was amused by his words, "Second brother, it will be fine once this period is over and the shop opens."
Then you can eat meat every day until you get tired of it.
"How can you get tired of eating meat?" Qiao Xiaoshan said with a smile. "My dream is to eat meat every day and never eat vegetables again."
Su Chenhao patted him on the shoulder, "Look at you, so pathetic. Eating meat every day is nothing. You'll understand when you have a lot of money in the future."
Qiao Xiaoshan seemed to understand, but he felt that being able to eat pork every day was the best life.
Su Chenhao looked around at the layout and discussed the arrangement of the room with Qiao Xiaoni. They finally concluded that the shop renovation would take at least a week, and since one wall needed to be demolished, it would take even longer.
After deciding on the plan, Su Chenhao went to the other side of the market and found a few renovation workers. They discussed it for another half hour, and the general plan was finally finalized.
Next, Su Chenhao went out to buy things with two renovation workers, which took another two hours.
By the time they had some free time, it was already afternoon. Qiao Xiaoni took advantage of the free time to go out and buy some steamed buns, borrowed a kettle from the shop owner to make a pot of water, and the group had a simple meal.
