Hua Zhao and Ye Shen behaved quite normally. They had only been together for a few days, and the days were still long.
Miao Lanzhi was disappointed when she found out. She secretly went to Ye Shen and asked, "How many more days can you stay at home?"
Although the days are still long, how many times a year can he stay at home? The actual opportunity is very small!
"The higher-ups have intentions and won't let her have a baby casually! You have to hurry up!" Miao Lanzhi urged.
Ye Shen nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely let you have a grandson or granddaughter next year."
He is no longer like before. In the past, he really got together less and separated more. Now if he wants to get together, just ask Hua Zhao to buy a plane ticket.
But I can't tell my mother about this yet.
With his words, Miao Lanzhi felt more at ease. Both her sons were quite reliable in what they said, and they had never broken their promises, even for such unreliable things.
"Anyway, hurry up." Miao Lanzhi said and left, going to the kitchen to learn skills from Zhang Guilan.
She retired.
My days are boring. I have nothing to do but raise flowers, cook, watch my children and go shopping.
Flowers will continue to grow and die in batches.
There is not much to see when shopping.
All that's left is to look after the kids and cook.
The children are picky, so she can't just point to her in-laws, otherwise in the eyes of the children, she, as a grandma, will no longer be kissable!
Therefore, Miao Lanzhi loved cooking like never before. Apart from sleeping, she spent half of the day in the kitchen.
Not to mention, my craftsmanship has improved.
Zhang Guilan taught Miao Lanzhi how to review a dish, then asked her to look at the pot while she went to find Hua Zhao.
Miao Lanzhi looked at her as if she had something on her mind these past few days. She asked Zhang Guilan once and didn't answer, so she didn't ask again.
Now it seems that she is going to find Hua Zhao, and she will not stop him.
Hua Zhao also noticed that Zhang Guilan had something on her mind these past few days, and when he was about to find a chance to ask, he saw her coming to see him.
"Mom, if you have anything to do, just tell me directly," Hua Zhao said.
"You can all see it." Zhang Guilan said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I just can't stay idle for a long time and want to do something more. What do you think I should do?"
Miao Lanzhi asked her but she didn't say it because she was afraid that Miao Lanzhi would think she wanted to be self-employed and would have objections.
With the reform and opening up, self-employed people have also begun to be discriminated against...it will take until the late 1990s for the public's ideological concept to change.
And although she had been doing small business in the past, and Miao Lanzhi knew about it, the two of them had never discussed this topic.
Miao Lanzhi pretended not to know, so she had a bit of a misunderstanding.
She also told Hua Zhao about this problem.
Hua Zhao immediately comforted him: "In the past, the superiors were not allowed to do business. Of course she had to pretend not to know. In fact, she has no objection. If you don't believe me, you can talk to her later."
"Really?" But Hua Zhao said it, and she believed it.
Hua Zhao asked again: "As for what to do, what do you want to do?"
This Zhang Guilan really has an idea, and she said a little uncertainly: "I want to open a small restaurant, what do you think?"
"Yes!" Hua Zhao immediately supported: "If you open a restaurant, business will definitely be booming."
Zhang Guilan smiled, with some confidence on her face: "I think so too."
She is not confident in other things, but she is confident in cooking.
"But where to open it, how big of a store to open, how to operate it, and how to manage it, I still need your advice." Zhang Guilan said.
She had eaten in many restaurants, but they were all state-owned. She felt that it would definitely not work if they were run like that!
Anyway, she almost never went back to the restaurants she had eaten in. Just looking at the long face of the waiter, she felt full.
Zhang Guilan no longer tolerates this idleness.
Hua Zhao nodded, support was necessary.
She had previously had the idea of letting Zhang Guilan open a restaurant, but Zhang Guilan was not suitable for opening a large hotel.
She discovered that Zhang Guilan was not a managerial talent, and she had so many people under her that she couldn't understand.
