Chapter 363. Skin careAfter Zhou Kai left, Zhu Zhen Zhen entered the house with a flushed face.
Old Madam Zhu was sewing the soles of the shoes. When she saw her co in, she said: "Why are you coming in? Go out and wait. Zhou Kai will definitely co over today."
"I...I may have seen the one you were talking about, Gran." Zhu Zhen Zhen curled her lips and uttered with a flushed face.
When old Madam Zhu heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Is it a very tall, handso, and very energetic young man?"
Zhu Zhen Zhen nodded embarrassedly: "En. Tall and handso. But he appears a little mature. Is he really only eighteen years old after the New Year?"
"How can it be fake. He’s this tall, so he certainly doesn’t look tender anymore. Still, this big lad is perfect. No flaws at all. Do you like him? If you like him, Gran will find so ti to settle it for you." Old Madam Zhu said.
Old Mister Zhu couldn’t listen anymore and said: "New Year is coming in a blink of an eye, so don’t talk about it. If you want to, wait until after the New Year."
"I didn’t say now. After the New Year then." Old Madam Zhu didn’t worry. The lad was still young and have no partner, so she wasn’t afraid of him being snatched away.
What’s more, she had a good relationship with old Madam Zhou. Letting her wonderful granddaughter be her granddaughter-in-law will make old Madam Zhou smirk in happiness.
Zhu Zhen Zhen blushed and said nothing.
Zhou Kai, who didn’t know soone had their thoughts on him, was eating buns and lamb ribs in his youngest uncle’s shop.
"This...this pear...the pear is so...fresh." Su Da Lin said as eat bit into the pear.
He had been getting a little overheated recently. Currently, this pear tasted particularly delicious.
"Little uncle, if you like it, you can go to the mall to buy it. We went to the mall yesterday and we saw that they weren’t as fresh as the ones my dad bought." Zhou Kai said.
"En." Su Da Lin nodded. Seeing that he was finished eating, he asked: "Do... you... want more?"
"No. I’m full." Zhou Kai replied: "We heard about it over at our side. The situation will beco more and more stable in the future. Uncle, now you have moved here, have you thought of buying the shop?"
Su Da Lin responded, "Your...your dad...also...said the sa...thing."
"En. You won’t do badly after buying it." Zhou Kai nodded.
As for the dumpling shop, his mother bought it at the end of ’79. So he didn’t say anything.
At that ti, she could co up with three thousand yuan to buy a shop. How much money was this? At that ti, his parents didn’t have any business, so they relied on the money they earned from the field. Everyone with a discerning eye knew that it was hard to feed a family with that little work.
Where did the money co from?
So it didn’t need to be said.
Su Da Lin said: "It’s... too...too expensive. Your...your dad’s...dumplings... dumpling shop...was four...four thousand."
Zhou Kai understood when he heard these words. His mom must have said it and smiled in his heart.
On the surface, he said: "I had heard my mother. Four thousand yuan seems to be a lot, but my dad’s dumpling shop actually made that in a year or so."
The business at the dumpling shop was very good even though the margin is thin. He was also engaged in business, so Su Da Lin had so estimation in his heart. He nodded without much surprise.
After all, his profit here was similar.
"Few thousands seem to be expensive, but you can make it back in a year or so. The days in the future are still long, so you have to have your own shop for stability." Zhou Kai maintained.
"That’s... seem... logical." Su Da Lin nodded.
Business was good now, but Su Da Lin was actually a little worried. After all, the shop wasn’t his own.
Xiao i had said the sa thing. If the shop was their own, it will be much more stable and no one can interfere with their business.
Soon soone ca to buy stead buns, so Su Da Lin went to serve the custor. They bought a lot. Three oil-paper bags of it.
So Su Da Lin added one extra to the original order without hesitation.
"Thank you." The custor was delighted and smilingly said.
Su Da Lin smiled.
Have to say, Su Da Lin was really good at doing business. He learned this from Zhou Qing Bai.
Stead buns were truly good value stead buns. Excellent taste and low profits. But it was hard work Except for the first month when they only made one hundred or so, the rest were an inco of two to three hundred yuan a month.
And most importantly, his stead bun shop had a very good reputation. Usually, those who wanted to eat stead buns will co over to specially buy them even if it was a little farther away
Zhou Kai sat around for a while. One after another, people ca over to buy them. Most of them got a few oil paper bags full. The minimum was few buns for themselves. The business was very good.
"Youngest Uncle, I’m going back first." Zhou Kai inford.
"Take... so back... back." Su Da Lin said hurriedly.
"No need. I’m going to my classmate’s house. Not going ho." Zhou Kai replied. He went directly out to the main road to wait for the bus. He caught a ride to old Weng’s house.
It wasn’t early now. Father Weng and Mother Weng’ were both off on vacation. They were very happy to see him coming.
Especially Mother Weng. She accusingly remarked: "You ca here the day before yesterday and haven’t stayed for dinner. If you don’t stay for lunch today, then I will be angry."
"I ca here early today just the food. Aunt, you got to cook two more dishes for ." Zhou Kai handed her the apples he bought outside and said with a smile.
"Okay, no problem." Mother Weng grinned.
"Once you co, you are my family’s son." Weng Guo Liang comnted helplessly.
Zhou Kai smiled and then asked, "Where is i Jia?"
"i Jia went out with her classmates. At this ti, she should be back soon." Mother Weng responded: "The honey and grapefruit tea that your mom gave last ti was really good, especially delicious."
"My mom likes to make these when she is free. There are still several jars of honey in stock at ho. I see her drinks it every day and also gets dad to join her." Zhou Kai said.
"Then your mom can really take care of her skin. I heard that drinking honey is very good for the skin." Mother Weng said.
"Yes, it is." Zhou Kai nodded.
His mother was really particular, especially about these. What he didn’t ntion were those egg masks, honey masks, and cucumber masks she made.
She can sar anything on the face, but really, his mom looked more than five or six years younger than her peers.
How could Lin Qing He possibly know that Mother Weng had begun to explore this aspect? She slept until after nine o’clock and then ca to the dumpling shop to eat a dumpling.
"Where is Eldest?" Lin Qing He asked Zhou Qing Bai.
"Went to his grandparents’ side." Zhou Qing Bai answered.
"Then you don’t need to prepare his portion for lunch. Let’s have mutton soup with grilled?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Okay." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
