Chapter 578: Chapter 608: Listening to English Songs Is Rest
It wasn’t just about the aging Grandpa Du, or her parents; now there was a little one on the way for Qin Jiao.
There was so much more to consider now.
That’s why Qin Jiao planned to turn Youjia Noodle House into a restaurant chain.
Su Yun’s heart surged with excitement after hearing her daughter’s plan, but she was also a little worried. "Xiao Jiao, how would this franchise work? If they can make noodles just as delicious as ours, does that mean they won’t have to pay us any franchise fees?"
Qin Jiao smiled. "Don’t worry. Without our family’s secret recipe, no one can replicate that flavor!"
Qin Zhonghui looked baffled. "What secret recipe?"
’The two of them always made the noodles at home, and he really didn’t know about any secret recipe.’
But Qin Jiao didn’t elaborate. She told her parents to relax and that aside from the noodle-making itself, she would handle everything else.
Su Yun was actually fired up with excitement too, but hearing her daughter’s words, she said with concern, "Xiao Jiao, there’s no end to how much money you can make. You can’t overexert yourself. After all, you’re pregnant now; it’s different."
"Mom, Dad, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing."
After Sun Jianhua started his own business, Qin Na and the others would eventually go help him. For now, though, it was just about setting up the franchise company, and Qin Jiao could handle most things herself.
Once she had a plan, she got right to work, starting by drafting the necessary documents.
When Xiao Shi came home from school that evening, she sidled up to Qin Jiao to see what she was doing. "Sis, what are you writing?"
"The documents and articles of incorporation for Youjia Noodle House Franchising Inc. Keep studying hard, Xiao Shi. Once you get into college, you can start helping with the family company too."
"Okay!"
Xiao Shi’s eyes sparkled, filled with an eagerness to get started.
Xiao Shi was fourteen. She had skipped a grade, so she would be starting her first year of high school in the fall.
’But right now, the young girl wished she could graduate from college in an instant. Then I could take over the family business and make money for Mom, Dad, and my sister!’
Qin Jiao affectionately stroked her sister’s short hair. Xiao Shi had cut it to ear-length because long hair wasted too much time. She was now pouring all her energy into her studies, not wasting a single moment.
Qin Jiao said, "Xiao Shi, you don’t have to push yourself so hard. You need to relax sometimes, too."
Xiao Shi said seriously, "Sis, for me right now, studying can be a form of rest. For example, when I’m studying English, I can listen to English songs, and sometimes I can read history stories and things like that."
Faced with her sister’s diligence, Qin Jiao didn’t know what to say, other than to remind her to take care of her health and not get her priorities mixed up.
’The granddaughters Mr. Qin once looked down upon were now each more exceptional than the last.
’Meanwhile, his treasured grandson, Xiao Tao, had vanished without a trace after Feng Lan took him away.
’But, judging by the time, Qin Jiqun should be getting out of prison soon. Mr. Qin had left him a considerable inheritance; who knew if he would turn over a new leaf or not.’
Qin Jiao quickly finished organizing the franchise-related matters. She then called the few people who had previously left their contact information and arranged a dinner meeting to discuss the opportunity.
When Sun Jianhua learned about this, he told Qin Jiao that he would accompany her to the meeting.
Qin Zhonghui and Su Yun were both too mild-mannered to handle business negotiations, and he worried that those people might not take a young woman like Qin Jiao seriously.
