"Really?" Song Lili looked at Zhang Qinghua in surprise and disbelief. "Xiao Hui actually remembers?"
When Zhang Qinghua reminded her, Song Lili vaguely heard it too, and once again saw the little flowers in the yard, and it seemed that she was saying something like that.
But that was so long ago, how could Xiaohui still remember it?
Song Lili was so overjoyed that she missed Zhang Qinghua's sour expression.
Song Lili felt as if her whole heart was soaking in warm water, feeling incredibly comfortable.
She was deeply moved by her son's thoughtfulness and felt an urge to cry.
What should I do? I can't control my emotions anymore.
It took Song Lili a lot of effort to recover, but her beaming smile still bothered Zhang Qinghua.
Then I looked at my son, who was running around like a madman in front of me, and he was even more of an eyesore.
You brat. I'll deal with you when we get back, you'll teach me a lesson for stealing my job.
Zhang Qinghua never considered this; he had no recollection of this incident at all. If Xiao Hui hadn't done all that, he wouldn't have remembered it either.
At this moment, it's just a case of being angry out of embarrassment and taking it out on others.
Zhang Qinghua gritted his teeth, thinking that he also had to speed up his pace, otherwise he would be surpassed by his son, and that would not be good.
Zhang Qinghua secretly began to make plans.
Song Lili was unaware of Zhang Qinghua's elaborate plans; she simply watched the children running gently.
In the past, I always had great ambitions for my children, thinking about what kind of people I would raise them to be when they grew up.
But now, I suddenly feel that none of that matters. As long as the children are happy and grow up healthy, that's all that matters.
Having the ability to be independent and the ability to distinguish right from wrong is already very good.
"What do you think they'll be like when we get old?" Song Lili asked with a touch of longing, leaning on Zhang Qinghua's shoulder.
"They must have grown too big for their britches and become disobedient. It's infuriating."
Zhang Qinghua was in a bad mood, so what he said was naturally unpleasant, which immediately put Song Lili's wavering heart back on track.
She couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Can't you say something nice? Why do you always talk about things that give me a headache and make me angry?"
"That's all I can think of," Zhang Qinghua said, somewhat frustrated and unwilling. "So, in the end, the person by your side is still me. Therefore, you should pay more attention to me."
"I know." Song Lili was speechless, looking at Zhang Qinghua with some confusion. What was wrong with him today? Why did he seem to be going against her?
Did she offend him?
I thought about it, and no!
Hmm, this person must be in a bad mood because their period started today. Never mind.
Song Lili ignored Zhang Qinghua and continued watching the laughing children, then carelessly laughed along with them.
Enjoy life to the fullest when you're successful!
Everyone in the family had a great time that day, especially the children, who played so hard they didn't want to go home.
If it weren't for the men's stern faces, they probably would have come down!
When they got home, everyone was exhausted and no one wanted to talk much. They all went home to rest.
“I’ve been thinking of opening another branch of my hot pot restaurant, but I feel that the time isn’t right.”
Song Lili suddenly remembered that she still had something to tell Zhang Qinghua.
"However, both stores are simply too busy right now, so I have to consider it."
"Business is good?" Zhang Qinghua hadn't paid attention to Song Lili's hot pot restaurant for a long time.
When I was in school, I could still keep up with things, but now that I'm working, I don't have time for it anymore.
He has a ton of work to do, dealing with so much data every day that his brain can't keep up.
Moreover, deep down, he always trusted Song Lili and believed that she could succeed at anything, so he didn't care.
Even now, hearing her say that, I'm still incredibly surprised.
It seems that Lili is truly a business expert!
How long has it been? The store has already opened its third branch.
She also had a job in the garment factory, and played an important role.
Zhang Qinghua admired her.
How does she manage to balance family and career?
The children are well taken care of. My career is also thriving.
When I compare myself to myself, I realize I'm not good enough.
"It's alright, but many people complain that it's too far. If they want to eat hot pot, they have to travel across most of the city, which is a bit of a hassle."
"So I thought about opening another store somewhere else, closer to other people."
Because of Song Lili's schooling, the hot pot restaurants are all located near the university.
Now that I've graduated, there's no need to be restricted by geographical location anymore.
"You decide what to do. I believe you can do a good job," Zhang Qinghua said earnestly as he sat down next to Song Lili.
"Never mind, I'll think about it myself." Song Lili looked at Zhang Qinghua for a long time before getting into bed and going to sleep.
He had only spoken to Zhang Qinghua out of habit; the decision still needed to be made by himself.
Moreover, Zhang Qinghua didn't understand these things, and telling him that was like talking to a brick wall.
She should think it over carefully herself.
Zhang Qinghua smiled, knowing that she didn't want to talk anymore, so he let her be, as long as she was happy.
In the days that followed, Zhang Qinghua seemed to be even busier, sometimes not going home for a whole week.
If Zhang Qinghua's attitude towards her hadn't remained unchanged, and if she hadn't noticed anything amiss, Song Lili would have thought that Zhang Qinghua had changed his mind.
Later, I thought that Zhang Qinghua might really be busy, otherwise, given his personality, he definitely wouldn't stay away from home for so long.
Song Lili thought about it for a split second, then put it out of her mind and went back to thinking about her hot pot restaurant.
If she has to take care of her child and run the shop at the same time, she definitely won't be able to manage it all, so she'll have to ask others for help.
Lin Xue's new shop has just started, so she must be very busy. She doesn't have time, and besides, her own child is still here in the alley!
If Zhang Shengtian were to take care of the children, there would be too many for one person to look after.
Moreover, Zhang Shengtian is getting old and will definitely be unable to keep up with his strength.
So, who else is there?
Oh right, Fangfang is here too. She's unemployed right now, so maybe she can help me.
Thinking of Song Fang, and the fact that she doesn't have a job yet, Song Lili frowned. Chu Ci's situation has stabilized, so shouldn't Fangfang be going out to work by now?
She can't just be a housewife, can she? Song Lili didn't support her doing so.
It's better to have your own things to do.
Song Lili couldn't sit still any longer, so she went directly to find Song Fang. She wanted to ask Fangfang what her plans were for the future, for herself, and for their family.
Fortunately, Song Fang was at home; she had been staying home the whole time.
Add some things to the house to make it feel more like a home, visit the children, and maybe even think about your future path.
