proposal
Xu Xi's tone was a little surprised: "Xiao Mu, did you really do what Auntie said?"
Xiao Mu pursed her lips and nodded slightly, but didn't say anything. Her face showed a guilty look as if she had done something wrong.
Xu Xi found it incredible. She had never expected Xiao Mu to do such a thing. She had never seen Xiao Mu do anything out of the ordinary since she was little. Xu Xi asked her several questions in a row: "Are you crazy? Didn't you discuss this with your uncle and aunt? What on earth are you thinking? Do you really want your uncle and aunt to sleep under the bridge with you?"
Xiao Mu sighed weakly but didn't say a word.
Her mother couldn't stand it anymore. "Look at what she did. She didn't care about the consequences, and she kept it a secret from us. If we get kicked out one day, we won't even know what happened."
Xiao Mu raised her eyes and tried to defend herself weakly. "I didn't recklessly do anything. This was truly an accident."
Everything was going well in the store from its opening to its operation. Who would have thought that an accident would come before wealth arrived?
A moment of silence passed, and Xu Xi didn't know how to defend Xiao Mu. But the truth was, as she had said, it was an accident. Selling the store right now would be the biggest loss. Locking her up at home and not letting her do anything wasn't a good idea either. When an accident happens, one can only find ways to make amends and make amends. If one makes a mistake, one should sincerely admit it.
She suppressed her urge to complain about Xiao Mu and asked him softly, "Have you apologized to your aunt?"
At least I apologized to him, right?
Xiao Mu stole a glance at her mother and said cautiously, "When they found out, I knelt all night to admit my mistake."
When Xiao Mu's mother mentioned this incident, she became furious. She stared at Xiao Mu with a look of disappointment. "Is admitting your mistake any use? Will you get back the hundreds of thousands of dollars if you admit your mistake?"
This has reached the point where I get criticized for every word I say.
Xu Xi looked at the situation and realized that her uncle and aunt had already severely punished Xiao Mu, so there seemed no need for her to blame her as well. The most important thing now was to solve the problem rather than just blaming her.
So, Xu Xi thought about it in her heart, and said to Xiao Mu's mother, "Auntie, it's not a good idea to keep Xiao Mu locked up at home. She was about to open a store a few days ago, and the store opening would have publicity. If you lock her up at home now, you really can't do anything. If you don't want her to open the store anymore, at least let her go out to work. And make friends, etc. If you confiscate her, many people will be worried if they can't find her, just like we are really worried if we can't find her today."
Xiao Mu observed her mother's reaction, trying to find some hope in her face. However, her mother said, "No. Her father and I have already discussed it. This store must be sold. He can't even think about leaving for the time being. She can just work for someone else and stop daydreaming about being a big boss. If we don't teach her a lesson, she won't feel the pain and won't learn her lesson. The savings we've accumulated didn't come from the wind."
Xu Xi blinked. Her aunt's attitude was very firm, and she seemed to be getting angrier the more she spoke. So she couldn't persuade her, as she wasn't good at chatting and persuading people. Xu Xi looked at Xiao Mu, saying that she was powerless now. If she had done something like this, her parents would have been so angry that they would have been admitted to the hospital.
Finally, Xu Xi gave Xiao Mu a look that said, "There's nothing I can do."
Just when everyone thought the matter was settled, Chen Shuning suddenly spoke.
"Auntie, if you really want to sell this shop, then you can transfer it to Xu Xi and me. We've also been thinking about starting a business and opening a shop recently, and we're looking for a place. And you said you want Xiao Mu to go out and work, so you can let Xiao Mu work in Xu Xi and my shop. If this shop succeeds, then Xiao Mu can open another one. If this shop doesn't, she won't lose anything. What do you think?"
"You guys want to open a shop too?"
"Yeah." Xu Xi saw that this was roughly what Chen Shuning said. She was planning to open a shop and was thinking of learning how to start a business with Xiao Mu. But she didn't expect Xiao Mu to do something like this. If Auntie didn't let Xiao Mu continue to run the shop, then she could take it over. When the time came, Xiao Mu would run it and she would learn slowly. When they had some success, they could open a branch. Then, they would be considered starting a business together.
Thinking of this, Xu Xi felt that there was something she had to explain to her aunt.
"Don't worry, Auntie. My parents know I want to start a business and open a shop. I've already quit my previous job, and they support me. They think young people should go out and explore more. You can rest assured that he will follow me."
Xu Xi's heart was trembling as she spoke these words, because she didn't dare to guarantee anything. However, if she asked her aunt to keep Xiao Mu locked up at home, it wouldn't be a solution. One can't back down after one failure; one must try again.
Xiao Mu's mother frowned and looked at them, feeling a little hesitant. It was not that she didn't want young people to go out and explore, but her daughter had been out there for most of the day without making any achievements and had even caused such a big disaster. Anyone who saw it would be upset.
After thinking about it for a long time, she felt a headache, so she simply hit Xiao Mu's head with her hand. "Look at yourself, then look at Xu Xi. When will you let me worry less?"
Finally, after some discussion between Chen Shuning and Xiao Mu's mother, Xiao Mu's mother agreed to Chen Shuning's proposal.
Xiao Mu, Xu Xi and Chen Shuning all breathed a sigh of relief.
