In the county town, in a fast food restaurant in the food village.
It was already afternoon, and Sun Quan's family finally had lunch.
In fact, according to Sun Quan's intention, he wanted to find a decent small restaurant. After all, his parents must have not eaten well in the recent meals, but he never bothered his mother. His mother was used to being frugal and only agreed to eat fast food.
, this was already the result of her concession. Originally, according to her intention, the family would have to spend money on a lot of things, whether it was opening a store or buying a house. She initially proposed to buy a few steamed buns to deal with it.
Fortunately, his father, Sun Zhicai, rarely sided with Sun Quan on this issue.
"It's better to eat something! I haven't had a full meal in two days and I don't want to eat steamed buns!"
So, I came to this fast food restaurant.
After starting to eat, Xu Mei was a little hesitant, "His dad! Ah Quan, how about... let's not open a store? Are we good at doing business?"
Sun Quan didn't answer her words and just looked at his father.
Sun Zhicai frowned, "When will you change your temper of peeing and pooping? Didn't we already discuss it when you came here? Why did you fart as soon as you came to the county? We discussed it for so long before we came.
, let’s discuss and have fun?”
Sun Quan has been used to his father's speaking style since he was a child, but listening to it now makes him want to laugh a little.
Xu Mei still had a hesitant expression, "Aren't I worried about losing money? It's not easy for Ah Quan to make some money. Wouldn't it be a pity if we lose money in business?"
While taking the rice into his mouth, Sun Quan took the time to add: "Mom! Don't use me as an excuse. It's not as difficult for me to make money now as you think!"
Judging from the smile on his lips, this kid is obviously deliberately trying to undermine his mother. Who makes her want to deviate from the route agreed upon by the family?
Xu Mei glanced at him steadily, "Eat your food!"
Sun Zhicai sighed, "Then you say that we don't do small business, and we are illiterate and have no skills. What are we doing in this county? Are we really begging for food?"
Xu Mei frowned even more, but still refused to give in, "What you said, we have both hands and feet, can't we find something to do besides begging for food? I don't believe there are no sellers for us in this city.
A place for coolies!”
Sun Zhicai looked at her, sighed again, and touched the arm of Sun Quan, who was immersed in eating, "Hey! Ah Quan, your mother said she won't open a store, what do you think? You weren't very good at speaking out before you came to the county town.
Why? Why are you mute now? You can’t beat a fart with eight sticks?”
"Can you fart with eight sticks?"
Xu Mei said something back to him angrily.
Sun Quan almost spit out the rice in his mouth.
Fortunately, he held it back, stretched his neck and swallowed the food in his mouth. He said to his mother: "Mom! Let's do this! Since you are not at ease, let's not rush to open the store..."
"Hey! That's good! Look, Ah Quan said the same thing, right?"
Sun Quan was interrupted by Xu Mei just in the middle of his words, and he was a little proud to demonstrate to Sun Zhicai.
Sun Zhicai was speechless.
Sun Quan also smiled bitterly. After his mother finished speaking, he continued: "Mom! Can you listen to what I have to say first? You can express your opinion after I finish."
Xu Mei nodded repeatedly, "Okay! You say it! You say it!"
Sun Quan: "What I mean is...since you are afraid of the risks of opening a store, let's put this matter aside for now. In the past few days, the most important task for our family is to find a suitable house to buy.
Although it is said that home is where the family is, but if the family does not have a place to live, it always doesn’t feel like home, what do you think?”
Xu Mei opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason to refute, so she subconsciously looked at her husband.
Sun Zhicai pondered for a few seconds, but ignored her look for help, and nodded: "What A Quan said makes sense, damn! In a few years, A Quan will also be looking for a partner, and he may get married soon. Let's buy a house now.
, we can live here for now, and if he gets married in a few years, we will give this house to him to get married. The two of us who are old... should have some money by then, and we can go back to our hometown to build a few bungalows.
It’s for retirement! In a few years, if we work a little harder, we should be able to earn enough money to build a bungalow, right? Hehe, besides, if our family has a house in the county, we can negotiate good terms with Quan in the future.
A little bit, do you think this is true?"
Xu Mei: "..."
People say that a pair of swords combined is invincible, but now she felt that she couldn't resist the combination of father and son.
The key thing is...she actually feels that what her husband said makes sense.
"Then... do you really want to buy a house? Buy it in the county?"
Finally, she confirmed to the father and son without confidence.
Having lived in the countryside for most of her life, she never dared to think that one day her family would be able to buy a house in the county.
The richest family in the village has not yet bought a house in the county!
"Well, buy it! The money your son gave you should be about the same. If it's still less, I'll borrow some from Zhiying, and you can borrow some from your two brothers!"
The "Zhiying" Sun Zhicai mentioned was his biological sister, Sun Quan's biological aunt Sun Zhiying, who married a little further away, but was also in the same county, and her family's conditions were better than those of the Sun family, at least that was the case before.
Xu Mei nodded hesitantly, "Okay! If you really want to buy a house, I will tell my two brothers that our house was burned down and we should be able to borrow some money."
Seeing that his parents finally reached an agreement, Sun Quan brought up another matter, "Mom and Dad! When we buy the house, aren't you worried that we will lose money in business? Then I will take you to City M to have a look at my small shop.
, after you read it, you can decide whether you want to do it or not, don’t worry! I won’t talk nonsense then, and it’s up to you to decide whether to do it, okay?”
In fact, even if his parents do nothing from now on, Sun Quan is confident that he can support them.
But just like parents know about their children, a son also knows very well what kind of temper he has towards his parents. He knows very well that his parents have a restless temper.
Because they have no other hobbies, they don’t gamble, they don’t like to visit, and they don’t like to travel far away.
If they were really allowed to completely idle and do nothing, they would definitely not agree.
But they were uneducated and had no skills, so Sun Quan wanted to find them some easy and free work that could earn them some money and not be too tiring.
So, without much thought, he felt that opening a braised chicken restaurant was their best choice.
Firstly, the investment is not big; secondly, the work is not too tiring; thirdly, he has ready-made technology and experience.
After listening to her son's suggestion, Xu Mei looked at her husband.
Sun Zhicai was more straightforward and nodded directly, "Okay! Then after we buy the house, we will take the time to go to your place to take a look! Damn it! Don't hesitate about this. Ah Quan said, just let us two
Go and see, he won’t try to persuade us again.”
Only then did Xu Mei agree, "Okay! Then take the time to take a look."
