After Li Ruiying returned home, she invited Pang Wei to come over for tea. Hearing that Su Lan's grandfather was at home, how could he miss such a good opportunity to show his courtesy? He helped Li Ruiying take down all the things and put them away.
Li Ruiying watched Pang Wei busying around with a cheerful look on his face, and she felt more satisfied.
The man in the hall poured a glass of water for Pang Wei.
"Come and have a drink of water, young man. Your grandpa will be back soon. You can have lunch at home!"
Pang Wei finished the water in one breath and said, "No, grandma, the factory has a batch of goods to ship out, and Shengnian is alone. I'm afraid he will make mistakes. I'll say hello to grandpa and then I'll go back."
"Okay, next time, you must eat at home next time you come."
Pang Wei knew that this was a hint for him to remember to visit his home.
Pang Wei immediately smiled and said cheerfully, "Okay, grandma, I will."
Li Ruiying asked Pang Wei to sit in the main room first, gave him some egg cakes to eat, and then went to put things away.
After a while, Su Changshun came back with his hands behind his back, holding a pipe in his mouth.
I saw a strange young man sitting in the main room drinking water and eating egg cake. I looked at him puzzled for a moment, thinking that the tractor at the door must be driven by this kid, but I didn't know him.
"Who are you, young man?"
Pang Wei was just thinking about how to introduce himself to Su Lan's grandfather. He was so lost in thought when he heard the sudden voice that he choked.
"Ahem... ahem... I'm grandpa... No, grandpa, I'm Pang Wei. Our boss asked me to drive the tractor to take grandma home."
After saying that, she looked at Su Changshun with a red face. It was over. It was over. What did she just say? What should she do?
Su Changshun looked at the young man in front of him who was at a loss, and responded.
"ah."
He didn't say anything after that. Pang Wei looked at the old man's indifferent expression and felt very uneasy.
Little did he know that Su Changshun had been secretly observing him. He had heard his eldest son Su Shan talk about this kid, and his eldest daughter-in-law praised him a lot. Humph! His eldest granddaughter was a good woman, virtuous and sensible, and also had good hands. How could she fall for such a big, stupid guy?
Su Changshun thought secretly while smoking an old man's cigarette and secretly observing Pang Wei.
Pang Wei stood motionless and looked at Old Man Ren. He was almost sweating coldly. He thought back to the time when he followed Xie Zhengchuan on a mission and he had never been so nervous.
After Li Ruiying had arranged the things, she saw Pang Wei standing in front of her old man, not daring to move, and she knew that his old illness had come back. When Xie Zhengchuan married Su Li before, the old man was very critical of her. When his daughter met him, he also thought that his son-in-law was good in every way. But when they got married, he pulled such a long face, as if Xie Zhengchuan was not his son-in-law but a bandit.
Li Ruiying stood beside Su Changshun and looked at Pang Wei and said, "Xiaowei, this is your Grandpa Su, just follow me and call him Grandpa."
When Pang Wei saw Li Ruiying, he felt like he had seen a savior.
"Hey, hello, Grandpa." Pang Wei was calmer when he called out again.
After talking for a while, Pang Wei left, but his steps were a little messy.
Su Changshun pouted as he looked at Pang Wei's back.
At noon, Li Ruiying prepared a large table of food at home, and her four sons all came home to eat.
Ever since the old lady in the family and Su Lan and Su Fang all started working, cooking at home basically fell on the men.
It’s just a lunch, and it’s okay to just deal with it, but my own kids hate it.
Li Ruiying finally came home today, doesn't she have to have a good meal?
Everyone was enjoying the meal. Li Ruiying thought about it for a while and told Su Li what he thought.
Suzhou and Su Lie were unexpectedly unable to do it. They were also very excited at the time. How could Lao Wu be so pessimistic about such a good thing? He was unwilling to do it, unless they were willing.
"Mom, when are you going back? My third brother and I will go to my younger sister's house with you."
"I'll be here in a few days. You don't have to wait for me. Go with your wife tomorrow and then go find your little sister."
"Oh, okay."
Li Ruiying looked at her two sons who were so excited and said, "This is something your sister has brought up. You have to complete it. Don't hold your brother-in-law back and embarrass your sister."
"Mom, what are you talking about? How can that be possible?"
"That's right, mother, don't you know how reliable we are?"
"Alright, hurry up and eat. After you finish, go back and think carefully about how to do it. When you're done, you'll make Lao Wu, that little jerk, sick to death. He'll make me so mad."
The people at the table began to persuade Li Ruiying to calm down.
That day, Su Li was researching how to make hot pot base. She had made arrangements for her third and fourth brothers. Her eldest brother could take care of their father at home. Besides, there were three workers in her family, so he just had to educate Su An well.
My brother's family has two sons, so they will have a lot of money to marry off in the future. Hot pot is easy to make and can be eaten all year round. Then he can learn how to make a few hot and cold dishes, and it will be no problem to open a small restaurant.
With the current market conditions, opening a restaurant in a county town will definitely make money.
She had already told her sister-in-law Guo Rumei about this.
Guo Rumei and Su Hai were both open-minded people. They didn't feel uncomfortable because their younger sister arranged this and that. Their lives were already very good now, and it would be inappropriate for them if there were no arrangements.
Su Li didn't think her brother was incompetent. On the contrary, she felt that Su Hai was the most capable one. He didn't need to make arrangements herself, just give him a chance.
The site for the cannery has been selected. Suzhou and Su Lie have been running the cannery's business for a while now. Su Li also helped transport the machines there. As for the yellow peaches, oranges, and sugar, Su Li also paid for their transportation.
Xie Zhenghe and the other two were busy recruiting people, sales, and contacting glass jar factories. They hoped to make a wave of sales before the New Year.
When Su Li went to the county town, she asked Wang Hong to help her find a restaurant in Su Hai. The location was excellent, very close to the steel plant, textile plant and meat processing plant. The workers there would bring their own food when they got tired of the big pot meals in the canteen.
Su Li couldn't just give Su Hai the hotpot base directly. There was no way around it. If she just wanted to eat it normally, it would be fine, but running her own shop would require her to know how to stir-fry the ingredients and understand the ins and outs of the catering business.
Guo Rumei and her two sons all support Su Hai in doing things on his own. Guo Rumei's idea is that Su Hai should first hire someone to help him and pay him according to the current market price. Her current salary is high and she is reluctant to quit her job. She will quit when the store gradually gets better and she is needed to help.
If she fails and loses money, at least she still has a salary and can help pay off the debts. Su Hai can just go home and farm, so she is not afraid.
Chen Bensuhai was still a little hesitant, but after hearing what his wife said, he made up his mind to study hard and run the shop well.
