Li Zhenhua stayed at home for one day and then left again.
Seeing her husband leave, Yu Huimin breathed a sigh of relief.
When mother and son were having dinner together, she suddenly asked.
"Xiaowei, if, if, ah, mom and you leave home to live somewhere else, would you be willing?"
Li Wei looked over with a strange look on his face. "Mom, are you sick?"
"No, mom was just asking."
"Why would you leave if you're fine, unless you're crazy."
After hearing her son's answer, Yu Huimin immediately felt depressed.
She didn't know and didn't dare to tell her son the truth about his life experience, but thinking about Lu Chenggong, she felt that sooner or later there would be a showdown in this matter.
But the son is so old, and he is not a child of a few years old, so coaxing is definitely not possible, so how can we make him willing to accept Lu Chenggong, his biological father?
After several years in prison, her obsession with the chief's wife is not as strong as before.
After all, this identity didn't help her much when something happened.
If Lu Chenggong's current net worth was rich enough, she would be more willing to live a good life with him.
By the way, isn't her son interested in doing business? She immediately had an idea.
"Xiaowei, Mom knows an uncle who is very good at business. Would you like to take you to meet him next time?"
"Really? What kind of business is it? How big is it?" Li Wei immediately became interested.
"Mom doesn't know about this yet, but your uncle is very powerful." She laughed when she mentioned her sweetheart.
Li Wei was a little dubious. "Okay, you can show me when you get the chance." He would know if he was good or not after he met him.
Seeing that her son was willing to meet, Yu Huimin became happy and wanted to tell Lu Chenggong the good news immediately.
…
Zhao Qinglan is still looking for a suitable store in the city, and news has come from the army.
Sun Shengli personally called her over.
"Qinglan, the superiors have agreed to this matter. If there is anything that needs to be done by the group, just say it."
"Really, that's great." She became excited.
Thinking that Li Huai and she were husband and wife and could easily communicate on many matters, Sun Shengli put the political commissar Zhou Hai in charge of this matter, and Li Huai also participated in it.
With the troops coming forward, many things will be much easier.
With a letter of introduction from the army and relevant certificates, it would be much easier for them to rent a store or purchase ingredients than before.
There are also hiring staff.
Now that there are fewer things to worry about, Zhao Qinglan also wants to expand the scale this time.
Zhao Qingzhu and Sun were both excited when they learned that things were going well and a new store would be opened soon.
While the mother and daughter were arguing about which of them would take care of the children at home and the other would go to the city to help, Zhao Qinglan dropped a piece of bombshell news.
"I plan to resign from my current job as a teacher."
"Qinglan, how can that be done? What a wonderful job a teacher has." Sun was the first to disagree.
If my daughter becomes a teacher, she will be very successful.
Besides, I am a teacher in a military primary school. The work is not tiring and it is close to me. It is the best job. If my daughter hadn't been admitted to college because of her great ability, this good thing would never have happened.
In the past few years, Mrs. Sun has also gained a lot of experience and knows how great the opportunity is for her daughter to become a teacher.
After the college entrance examination is resumed and those college students graduate one after another, these people will definitely be the teachers. How can we get those who don't have serious academic qualifications?
Even Zhao Qingzhu felt that it shouldn't be done.
She herself hasn't gone to school for a few years, but that doesn't mean she doesn't envy her sister.
Zhao Qinglan, the eldest sister, is simply her idol and study target.
Li Huai, on the other hand, was a little surprised when he heard his wife's decision.
"Mom, listen to me first. I've already thought about this." She used to work as a teacher because it was not a tiring job, and there were winter and summer vacations, so she had more leisure time at that time.
But now, the snack bar is going to expand in size, and it will still be under the name of the military.
The family didn't have enough manpower, and she didn't trust her younger sister to do it alone. After thinking about it, she decided that it would be better for her to stand up and do it herself.
In the past, she only distributed the dividends of the snack bar and did not interfere. She did not want people in the family area to know how much she participated in because she was afraid that it would affect her husband's work.
But this time, it was a store under the name of the army. Even if she stood up to take the lead, people who knew would not say anything.
Only by being a teacher can she earn a lot of money, and being a teacher is not her main hobby.
Naturally, Zhao Qinglan couldn't express all of his thoughts, so he only said what he thought he could.
Anyway, no matter what her reasons were, Li Huai expressed his support first.
Sun is now more assertive than before, but she also knows that Zhao Qinglan, her daughter, has bigger ideas. She really decides to do something, and even a mother like herself can't stop it.
Zhao Qingzhu was convinced after hearing her sister's idea.
Zhao Qinglan can be regarded as giving up her iron job and quitting her job.
Regardless of the school's leading teachers or other people in the family area, they all felt incredible when they learned that Zhao Qinglan had resigned from his job as a teacher. Some people made sarcastic remarks in private, thinking that Zhao Qinglan was probably crazy.
Zhao Qinglan stepped in to manage the newly opened store.
In addition to the share handed over to the army, the rest is divided between mother and daughter.
However, given that she had basically contributed to this incident and was in charge of it, neither Sun nor the others wanted a share.
But how could Zhao Qinglan really not give it at all?
She contributed the most to the rest of the share and got the lion's share, but she still had a share from her mother and sisters.
The planned scale of the new store is large, and there is no need to worry about purchasing ingredients. Zhao Qinglan does not plan to only sell wontons and spicy hotpot.
And because she was afraid of affecting the business of the old store, she also eliminated the wonton item, kept Malatang, and added other dishes.
Malatang is the main one. In addition to Malatang, they also sell simple and easy-to-use pancakes and fruits, as well as her exclusive secret recipe of braised pork cold dishes.
She can hold the spicy hotpot base, the pancake and fruit sauce, and the braised pork seasoning in her hands, and everyone else can do the rest.
Indeed, as Zhao Qinglan expected, when looking for a store, he used the name of the army and things immediately became easier.
But it wasn't like she didn't encounter troubles.
As soon as the news spread in the family area that she was going to open a shop and hire military wives, people started to come to her door one after another.
Although everyone doesn't know how much their family earns from the snack bar in the city every day.
But the snack bar has been open for such a long time, and there are still people in the family area who go to eat in the store. Seeing that the business in the store is good and Zhao Qingzhu is living a good life, he feels that the income is not bad.
After all, Zhao Qingzhu married the orphan Zhou Jinsheng whom everyone knew and knew. Zhou Jinsheng did not have a powerful "Li family" or chief father behind him.
Among the people who came, there were some who said nice things to get closer, some who gave gifts, and some who acted badly.
In short, Zhao Qinglan was very annoyed, but fortunately she quickly thought of a solution.
The store naturally wanted to hire military wives, and of course she wanted to hire someone she knew well and had good character.
And the first thing she thought of was Wu Mei.
She also told Wu Mei directly. Of course Wu Mei was happy and agreed to her invitation without much hesitation.
The children in Wu Mei's family are all grown up, so she doesn't need to worry about them at all. She spends most of her time at home idle.
If she could find something to do and make money, she would naturally be willing to do it.
After making an agreement with Wu Mei, Zhao Qinglan left all the remaining recruitment matters to Wu Mei.
Wu Mei, the regimental leader's wife, has many ways to deal with various military wives.
Being trusted so much by Zhao Qinglan and entrusted with such an important task, she also promised to do this well.
Zhao Qinglan can finally worry about store decoration and other matters.
