Once Zhao Qinglan's pregnancy was confirmed, she instantly became a protected animal at home.
Seeing how serious her family was, Zhao Qinglan felt helpless but also happy and warm.
That evening, Li Huai specially brought his wife some hot water to wash her feet and washed them himself.
In short, we should make her move as little as possible.
Before going to bed, he didn't forget to remind him, "If you need to get up at night or get anything, just call me."
Zhao Qinglan happily agreed.
Perhaps knowing she was pregnant, Zhao Qinglan slept exceptionally well, sleeping soundly until dawn.
Li Huai stayed home for half a day on the 30th and a whole day on the first day of the Lunar New Year. He got up early on the second day to go to the military camp for duty.
Fortunately, there was Mrs. Sun and her two daughters at home.
When Zhao Qinglan got up, she smelled the aroma of food and was immediately overwhelmed with happiness. It felt so good to have her family to rely on.
The second day of the Lunar New Year is usually a day for visiting one's maternal parents' home, but due to Zhao Qinglan and her daughters' special circumstances, they spent the second day together at her home.
Originally, the Sun family was supposed to leave on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but now, because Zhao Qinglan is pregnant, they plan to stay until the fourth day before going back.
This is because the snack shop will be open for business after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and they need to set aside a day for cleaning and preparation.
There were still quite a few leftover dishes from yesterday, so I didn't cook much new food today; I mostly just reheated them.
Zhao Qinglan had some ideas after seeing this.
It's cold now, so food can stay out overnight without any problems, but once the weather gets warmer, it won't keep for long.
Especially for snack shops, if the ingredients are not stored properly and become stale, not only will the cost increase, but it may also cause health problems for consumers.
Or, before the weather gets hot, could we add refrigerators to their house and the snack shop?
Things are fine at home; her husband doesn't say much about what she wants to buy after receiving her dividends.
But the snack shop wasn't entirely hers, so she voiced her thoughts.
Mr. Sun had no idea that such a magical thing as a refrigerator existed.
However, Zhao Qingzhu and her sister's eyes lit up when they heard this.
"Sis, I think we should buy it. Although the refrigerator isn't cheap at first glance, we're not going to use it for just a day or two. In the long run, it's still a good deal."
"Yes, we can put the food we can't finish in this refrigerator. It's so convenient," Zhao Qingju exclaimed.
After several months of experience, Sun was no longer a stingy person who dared not spend money.
Although she felt a little heartache when she heard that a refrigerator would cost several hundred yuan, she nodded in agreement when she thought about the snack shop's business and long-term development.
"Then let's buy it."
Because she had never worried about buying a refrigerator before, Zhao Qinglan didn't know what kind of refrigerators were sold on the market in this era, or how much they cost.
If domestic products don't work, I can just spend more money to buy imported ones first.
Developed countries like those in Europe and America, as well as island nations, certainly all use appliances like refrigerators nowadays.
However, none of the families around her have used refrigerators yet. Perhaps some people in big cities like Shanghai use them, but she just doesn't know it.
With her mother and sister around, Zhao Qinglan enjoyed a few days of comfortable living without having to do anything.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Huai drove Sun and the others back to the city.
Before leaving, Madam Sun repeatedly instructed Zhao Qinglan to immediately notify them if she felt unwell or needed their help.
Zhao Qinglan nodded repeatedly.
After the car drove away, she stood there in a daze.
If she had ignored her mother and sister and only cared about herself in this life, would she have never enjoyed this kind of care and warmth?
This made her reflect on her past life.
It turns out that some people and some things are not static.
If you're willing to put in the effort, things might turn out for the better.
Thinking of this, she smiled with relief.
Zhao Qinglan, then keep working hard and strive to make your life and your family's life better and better.
Because the restaurant will be opening after the New Year, they will be adding spicy hot pot to their menu, and Mrs. Sun and her two daughters have been practicing making it quite a bit.
In the third year of junior high, I even cooked a meal for Zhao Qinglan and the others.
After receiving Zhao Qinglan's positive evaluation, Sun and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that she was pregnant, especially since the pregnancy was still in its early stages and not very stable, Zhao Qinglan decided not to go into the city again.
However, I also reminded my mother and sister to add mala tang as a new snack and to offer discounts for a few more days, so as to at least make mala tang more well-known.
Once everyone knows this food is delicious, we'll have more regular customers in the future.
Having benefited from the initial success of the wonton business, this point was approved without any objection as soon as Zhao Qinglan raised it.
Mrs. Sun was worried that her eldest daughter would be too troubled, so she told her not to worry about the shop all the time, as there were several of them working there.
Zhao Qinglan is now more at ease with her mother and sister, and is not worried that they will not do a good job.
After Sun and the others left, Wei Hong came to visit Zhao Qinglan at home.
When Wei Hong learned that she was pregnant, she was both happy and envious.
How much she had longed to have a child of her own!
But now that they're divorced, the possibility of having children is even greater.
Perhaps sensing something of her worries, Zhao Qinglan comforted Wei Hong.
"Sister Wei Hong, study hard, get into a good university, find a man who is a hundred times, a thousand times better than Qu Jianshe, and have a lovely baby. You will definitely be very happy."
"Then I'll lend you my blessing."
While the two of them were talking, Da Wa thoughtfully came over to pour water for Zhao Qinglan and asked if she was hungry, which surprised Wei Hong greatly.
