Chapter 355 Lay golden egg



Chapter 355. Lay golden egg

Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai nestled on the sofa as they watched TV. They happened to buy a pack of chestnuts from outside. So she peeled them for her family's Qing Bai to eat, while they were at it.

As for the children, they were sent out by Lin Qing He. Don't come back and disturb them before nine o'clock.

"This chestnut is a good thing for nourishing the kidney and spleen. Eat more and get nourishment. Once it's gone, let's work hard. Also, eat more mutton and beef. There will definitely be a chance." She peeled the chestnut and fed it to him.

Zhou Qing Bai ate the chestnuts. Watching TV, he said, "You don't want to give birth."

"Who said I don't want to give birth?" Lin Qing He replied immediately. Then she turned his face from the TV and looked at him and said: "Don't know how much I love you!"

Zhou Qing Bai still liked to hear these words but he didn't say anything. He turned his face to continue watching TV.

"Qing Bai, don't be angry. I didn't expect this. Speaking of it, I'm disappointed. I'm already preparing to be a mother and for the high risk pregnancy." Lin Qing He said.

"I felt you are quite pleased." Zhou Qing Bai pointed out.

"How could I? I'm quite disappointed. Really, when I mistakenly thought I was pregnant, I somewhat couldn't accept it. But because it was our child, I tried to adapt." Lin Qing He responded.

Zhou Qing Bai's expression eased.

Lin Qing He continued to speak nicely and to coax. By the time it was almost eight o'clock, Zhou Qing Bai's expression had already improved a lot.

The atmosphere around the couple was just right when Zhou Xiao Mei knocked on the door.

Lin Qing He went out to open the door. When she saw both of them at the door, she said: "Come in the house. What's the matter? It's still snowing, why are you coming here?"

The room was warm. Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin were relieved when they came in.

It was really cold outside today. Winter in the capital was much colder than in their hometown.

"Sheng Mei said Fourth Brother didn't open the shop today. My parents were worried. We just closed the shop and heard it when we got home. So we came over and have a look." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

Lin Qing He poured two cups of warm water for the two of them and said, "It's not a big matter. No need to come here specifically for this."

"Have chestnuts." Zhou Qing Bai said to Su Da Lin.

"Okay." Su Da Lin nodded with a smile.

"Fourth Brother, what's happened to you? Are you feeling well?" Zhou Xiao Mei looked at her fourth brother and spoke.

"En." Zhou Qing Bai responded.

"If you feel uncomfortable, you need to rest more." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

She was saying, with the way her fourth brother was, how could he possibly not open the shop. It gotta be an illness. He did appear a little sick and unenergetic.

"Go back and tell our parents to not worry." Zhou Qing Bai said.

"Alright." Zhou Xiao Mei nodded.

"It's really cold today. Is it warm enough on your side?" Lin Qing He asked.

"We won't freeze." Zhou Xiao Mei answered. She and Su Da Lin brought two big quilts over by themselves. However, this wasn't enough. After they came here, they ordered two big quilts. Only then, it was warm.

Because her fourth brother didn't have any problems, Zhou Xiao Mei wasn't concerned anymore. She told her fourth sister-in-law about making another mutton soup at their side.

In winter it was mutton soup. Once spring, it'll be replaced with soy milk.

"Don't know if Da Lin's idea will work out?" Zhou Xiao Mei finished.

"It definitely will. Business will be good." Looking at Su Da Lin, Lin Qing He said: "Brother-in-law, you don't have to hesitate. Do whatever you want. Anyway, you got the bun shop as the pillar. It won't do badly."

"En." Su Da Lin nodded.

Lin Qing He peeled the chestnuts for Zhou Qing Bai, and said, "Have you two visited the landlord?"

"We have. But from the look of it, she didn't plan to sell it." Zhou Xiao Mei pursed her lips.

Have to say, they didn't care about that shop very much before. But now, Zhou Xiao Mei really wanted to buy it.

The business was really good and stable. Now that they were completely familiar with it, it was indeed a bad idea to change places.

But after visiting, they knew the landlord really had no intention to sell it.

"Not planning to sell now doesn’t mean not wanting to sell in the future. You should save first but you have to be mentally prepared. You should buy your own store. Otherwise, when the landlord sees your business is doing well, the rent will increase to drive you out so they can do it themselves. This is a normal occurrence." Lin Qing He said.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, do you plan to buy yours?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.

"We bought it." Lin Qing He raised an eyebrow.

"Bought it? When did you buy it?" Zhou Xiao Mei was taken aback.

Su Da Lin also looked Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai in surprise.

Lin Qing He smiled: "It was bought a week ago. It is your fourth brother's dumpling shop."

"You bought it for a week and I haven't heard Fourth Sister-in-law mention it before." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

"Aren't I telling you two now?" Lin Qing He said with a smile: "But don't say anything to our parent's side yet."

"Okay." Zhou Xiao Mei promised. Then she hurriedly continued: "Fourth Sister-in-law, how much did the dumpling shop cost?"

"Four thousand yuan." Lin Qing He told her.

About the shop, only old Wang and Eldest Son knew. Neither of them would talk about it, so it was no problem.

As for the price, it was to psychologically prepare Zhou Xiao Mei. At that time, her shop wouldn't be so cheap, even it wasn't a duplex.

"So expensive?" Zhou Xiao Mei gasped.

Su Da Lin frowned.

Zhou Qing Bai had mentioned it before, but it was just a guess. After all, it was only seven or eight hundred for the ones in his hometown. Sometimes it was nine or ten hundred.

But the shops here in the capital were actually that expensive?

"Try saving money to buy it. You won't regret it in the future." Lin Qing He advised.

"But it's too expensive. What's more, our landlord may not necessarily want to sell it." Zhou Xiao Mei responded.

"You can increase the price a bit. If she still won't budge, then drop it. Find another place nearby." Lin Qing He said.

When Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin went back, they were thinking about this. First, they told Father Zhou and Mother Zhou why the dumpling shop didn't open. Then, the couple went to wash and prepare to go to bed.

"Shall we buy one next year?" Zhou Xiao Mei whispered when the children were all asleep.

"Too...too expensive." Su Da Lin hesitated.

It was indeed expensive. A shop cost four thousand yuan. How much money was this? So far, all the belongings in his family were about this number.

How long had he accumulated? Almost from Da Lin starting to work until now. More than ten years of savings.

"It's expensive, but Fourth Sister-in-law bought the dumpling shop. And business is great. If this shop belongs to us, we won't have to worry about it in the future. Just like a hen laying golden eggs." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

"I...I will...consider some...more." Su Da Lin said.

Zhou Xiao Mei nodded and didn't say anything. Such an important matter required more pondering.

However, Zhou Xiao Mei felt that it wouldn't be wrong to follow her fourth sister-in-law. The shop would be their own, so it would be safe to do a business.
