Chapter 58: He will definitely be a good hand at loving his wife in the future
"Lu Zhao went to the county town to look after the shop today. He won't be back for lunch. I'm too lazy to cook, so I'll come over to your place for a meal. Where's Dad? Where did he go?"
Su Yunqi got off the bicycle and asked while pushing the bicycle,
If Mr. Su was at home, he would have come out to greet us this time.
"He went to the fields to look after the crops. He never had a day off."
"It's almost time to harvest the rice. Your father is worried that something might go wrong and affect the harvest. He has been going to the fields every day. He won't be at ease until the crops are harvested."
Father Su values the crops in the fields more than anything else. Now he is no longer short of money. Lu Zhao and Su Yunqi have earned so much money that they can not only subsidize Lu Zhao's parents, but also Su Yunqi's parents.
The two of them no longer rely on this farm for their livelihood, but they are still worried if the harvest is poor.
"The sun is so strong, it's too hot. Ask Dad to run less often. And wear a straw hat when you go out, so you don't get a heat stroke."
Su Yunqi shook her head. Knowing that her father was worried, she did not try to persuade him much, but just wanted him to take better care of his health.
"I know. Your father knows his limits. We will take good care of ourselves. Don't worry. Don't worry about us."
Su's mother patted Su Yunqi on the back and pulled her into the house.
"What do you want to eat? I'll make it now."
"I want to drink chicken soup. Let's make some mushroom stewed chicken."
Su Yunqi was not polite either.
Her mother’s chicken soup is very delicious, but the taste is different from hers, and she doesn’t know why.
"Okay, let's make mushroom stewed chicken. I'll kill the chicken now. What will Xiaoyao eat?"
Mother Su nodded lovingly. They were all her darlings and could eat whatever they wanted.
“I want croquettes!”
Little Lu Yao actively raised his hand, answered loudly, and began to lick his lips greedily.
"Fried food again? Didn't I just make fried shrimp cakes for you yesterday? I'm afraid you'll get a sore throat in this hot summer."
Su Yunqi frowned and patted his son's hand, asking him to change.
"Okay, then I want to eat boiled meatballs."
Little Lu Yao took a step back. Anyway, he wanted to eat meatballs, whether steamed, fried or boiled. It was obvious that he really liked them.
"Okay, okay, okay. Then grandma will fry a few less meatballs for you and cook a few more for you to eat with. Then you won't get a sore throat easily."
Su's mother dotes on him so much that of course she has to satisfy his little request. Su Yunqi shook her head and let her go. She glanced at the half-finished sweater that Su's mother was knitting, and from the size she knew it was for her son. She asked with some amusement.
"Mom, it's only been a few months, and you've already knitted a sweater for Xiaoyao."
"Knit it first. It will be too late to knit it when it gets cold. I'll knit it a little bigger so that Xiaoyao can wear it even if he grows taller in the next few months."
Su's mother had nothing to do, so she wanted to spend more time with her daughter and grandson. She bought a lot of wool and planned to knit sweaters and trousers for the whole family so that they could have a warm winter.
"Wow, grandma is so nice, thank you grandma!"
"Grandma, are you going to cook? I'll help you. I'll help you hold the chicks! I can even pluck their feathers!"
Lu Yao held Su's mother's hand, praising her and offering to help. He was lively, sweet-talking and sensible. No aunt could escape Lu Yao's sexual orientation.
"Okay, Xiaoyao is so good, come and catch chickens with grandma..."
Su's mother took him to catch chicks.
Little boy Lu Yao was chasing the chicks and laughing loudly. He was having a lot of fun, just like he was playing a game. He also felt like he was playing when plucking the chickens’ feathers. He enjoyed it a lot.
When he grows up, he will definitely be good at taking care of his wife. Lu Zhao has taught by example.
After dinner, they played here until the afternoon, and were ready to go back at around five in the evening. Before leaving, Su's mother gave Su Yunqi a box of meatballs to take back, some fried and some boiled.
These are flour balls with some pork filling inside. Whether it is fried or boiled, it is delicious anyway. Su Yunqi and Lu Zhao both like to eat it, not to mention the little Lu Yao.
With a meatball as a dish, Su Yunqi simply fried an egg and some vegetables when he returned, and that was enough for the meal. When Lu Zhao came back, he also tacitly brought back a cooked dish, which was roast duck, making the meal more abundant.
Lu Zhao suddenly said while eating.
"I'll take you to the provincial capital in a few days. Boss Zhou is getting married for the second time and he invited me to the wedding. I've had close dealings with him over the years and I import all my goods from him. He invited me, so I have to go. I'll take you there to have some fun as well. Xiaoyao hasn't been to the provincial capital yet."
Su Yunqi had been to the provincial capital three times with Lu Zhao, about once a year, but Lu Yao was still young before, so she didn't take him with her when she went out. This time he can run and jump, and speak fluently. It's time to take him out to see the world.
"Okay, okay, I want to go to the provincial capital to have fun. There must be a lot of fun things there!"
When it comes to playing, little Lu Yao is very enthusiastic.
"You can also take the train! It's such a long train!"
"Okay, then we'll go together. Someone happened to be looking at the store in town, so it's okay for us to be lazy for a few days. But why is Boss Zhou suddenly getting married for the second time? Didn't he marry a wife before? It seems that his children are already grown up, right?"
Su Yunqi was a little surprised. After all, there are relatively few people who divorce and remarry these days.
As for the dry goods store in the town, it is now run by the wife of Lu Zhao's brother Tuanzi. Tuanzi's wife is pregnant and had severe morning sickness when she first became pregnant. She was unable to do her job and was fired.
It's been three months now and it has stabilized. However, she does not plan to go back to work after she becomes pregnant. Tuanzi has no parents to help him, so his wife has to take care of the child by himself. Tuanzi has to earn money. If Tuanzi's wife also goes to work, the two of them will not be able to take care of the child.
But she didn't want to be idle during her pregnancy, as she still had seven months to give birth. She felt bad about losing seven months' salary. After that, Tuanzi would be the only one earning money, so she definitely wanted to earn as much as possible.
But it is not easy to find a short-term worker. After all, she is pregnant and no one really wants her.
This was just perfect, so Su Yunqi let her come to work in his store as a part-time job. They scheduled shifts together. Tuanzi's wife would come to look after the store for a few days, and Su Yunqi would also look after the store for a few days. They would take turns to rest, and Su Yunqi would have more freedom.
If they were going to the provincial capital, she could ask her mother to go to the town and look after the store with Tuanzi's wife during this period of time, which would not cause any delay.
"Yes, I am also a little puzzled. I don't know why they suddenly got divorced and remarried. I will go and check the situation in a few days. If it doesn't work, I will find another wholesale store to purchase goods.
Recently he has given me a lot more defective products than before. I didn’t say anything because of our previous friendship, but if he goes any further, I won’t tolerate it. ”
Lu Zhao shook his head. Anyone who casually abandons his wife is not a good person. Even though the two have been working together for so many years, he has to re-examine their partnership. After all, such a person has bad character and may stab him in the back one day.
From a business perspective, Lu Zhao would not stick with him just because of their past friendship.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. You're the one who makes the decisions on these matters anyway."
Su Yunqi nodded in agreement, acting as Lu Zhao's little follower.
In these years, Su Yunqi has only been looking after the store, and the most important thing he did was counting money. Most of the business was handled by Lu Zhao, who would occasionally give some suggestions. They had a clear division of labor, and the two lived a happy life in harmony.
But now, little Lu Yao had a problem. He put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, supported the table with his chubby little hands, frowned, widened his eyes, and said in a heroic and confident tone.
"Will you listen to me from now on? I'm a grown-up boy now, and I need someone to listen to me!"
"Mom listens to Dad, I listen to Mom, so Dad should listen to me!"
A logic genius was born.
