It was already ten o'clock in the morning when Hutao went back to sleep.
Hutao came out of the room and saw her mother standing on the balcony looking out, not knowing what else to look at.
"Mom, what are you looking at?"
"Nothing, just looking at it out of boredom. Are you awake?"
Hu Tao heard her mother say she was bored, and then stood quietly on the balcony in a daze, and suddenly realized something.
Her mother is used to living in the countryside, where the sky is high and the sky is high.
Here, it’s such a small space.
There are too many cars and the air is not as good as in rural areas.
If she were to do nothing, she would really have to look at the outside world from the window every day, and she would definitely be bored to death.
"Mom, get ready. Let's go out for a walk and see if there are any suitable jobs."
When her mother heard that she was going out, she quickly said: "No need to prepare, let's go."
The two of them went out.
Because her brother had taken the car away, she originally wanted to take a taxi, but her mother said she wanted to walk and get to know the surrounding environment.
Hu Tao can only give up.
She took her mother around the entire community and then to the supermarkets and markets around the community.
The two of them didn't go back at noon, so they ate some snacks outside.
In the afternoon, I took my mother to the largest park in Jiang City.
Come all the way and teach mom how to take the bus and take a taxi.
By the time we returned to the gate of the community, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
Her mother is still struggling with finding a job: "Hey, I don't know when I will find a job. I might as well go back if I am idle like this every day."
Hutao couldn't help it. I looked at a lot of job postings today and found nothing suitable.
She comforted: "You have to take your time when looking for a job. You will find it one day."
Tu suddenly saw a message at the gate of the community, smiled and said to her mother: "Mom, I know what you do is appropriate."
Her mother asked: "What?"
Hutao didn't even reply to her mother, but went directly to the convenience store at the entrance of the community.
On the door of the convenience store are the words "store transfer" in big letters.
"Boss, is your store going to be transferred?"
The owner of the convenience store is a middle-aged man.
Hearing Hu Tao ask, he stood up from the counter and said, "Yes, I want to transfer."
Hutao was delighted when he heard this and said directly without asking the price: "You can transfer it to me. When can you transfer it?"
Upon hearing this, the boss asked: "Really? We can go through the formalities tomorrow."
Her mother followed her in. When she heard that she wanted to rent a store, she asked, "You don't want me to open a convenience store, do you?"
Hu Tao said: "Yes, Mom, do you think it's okay?"
Her mother looked at the store and said, "It's OK, but it costs a lot of money to open a store."
Hu Tao said: "It's okay, we only pay the cost, and you will make it back in the future."
The boss saw that Hutao was sincere in wanting to rent, so he asked Hutao to sit down and talk with her mother.
An hour later, several people had reached an agreement.
Finally, it was leased to Hutao for 60,000 yuan per year.
Information about some service providers was also given to Hutao.
Hutao only needs to apply for a business license, permit and other things to officially open a store.
After returning home, Hutao drafted a rental contract that night and went to her boss to sign it the next day.
Then I took my mother to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to apply for a business license and other things in her name.
Three days later, Hu Xu returned to Jiang City after handling the debt repayment. Hu Tao and her mother's Yihe convenience store had opened.
Hu Xu drove to the door and saw his sister and mother moving things.
He stopped the car and asked: "Mom, Taozi, what are you doing?"
As soon as Hutao saw his brother, he shouted: "Brother, you are here just in time. Come and help move things quickly."
Hu Xu asked in confusion: "What is this? So many."
Her mother pointed to the shop next to her and said, "Taozi rented a shop, this is it. I will sell some small things here from now on."
Hu Tao said: "Brother, don't be stunned, move things quickly, I'm almost starving, finish moving and have lunch quickly."
With Hu Xu joining in, several people quickly moved the goods in, then unpacked them and put them on the shelves.
At the same time, Hutao also ordered a takeaway, and when the takeout arrived, all the goods had been put away.
Hutao placed a movable table and several small stools under the tree outside the shop.
A few people were sitting under a tree eating takeout.
"Brother, how is things going?" Hutao asked while eating.
Hu Xu said: "Don't worry, everything has been taken care of, and everything will be fine in the future."
His mother said: "That's great."
Hu Xu glanced at Hu Tao, who was flushed from exhaustion, and said: "However, the news that you are married has spread throughout the village, and it is a bit unpleasant. I guess it was He Jun who spread the word."
Her mother became anxious and asked: "What, what are you spreading? This He Jun is really not a thing."
Hutao was also curious: "What did you say?"
Hu Xucai said: "It's hard to hear that you are being kept by an old man."
Hu Tao chuckled and said: "Mom, don't be angry. Just say what you say. Your mouth is on others. It doesn't matter to me whether you like to talk or not."
Hu Xu also said: "That's right, there won't be any missing pieces of meat."
But her mother was still worried and said: "But your reputation will be completely ruined."
Hu Tao consoled: "Mom, I have indeed obtained a marriage certificate. If Ling Yeshen and I divorce in the future, it will be a second marriage. It doesn't matter whether we are famous or not. From now on, we will make good money, live a good life, and be happy every day.
”
Hu Xu was still worried that she would be sad, but he was relieved because he thought so openly.
It feels good to know that my mother is going to open a convenience store here.
It's right at the entrance of the community, so you don't have to worry about getting lost when you go out.
There is no need to look at other people’s faces and work under others.
In the afternoon, several people worked hard to clean everything.
Yihe Convenience Store has officially opened.
In order to celebrate the opening of the convenience store, Hutao ordered a meal at a restaurant that night and invited his uncle's family to come over for dinner.
By the way, I will return the medical expenses that my uncle helped me pay in advance.
But my uncle is unwilling to take it.
Hutao said sheepishly: "Uncle, aunt, just take it, I have money."
Her aunt said: "Okay, don't give it back, just think of it as a red envelope for the opening of your mother's convenience store.
Hutao is not insisting.
The two families dispersed after eating.
When leaving, her uncle said again: "Call me if you need anything."
When she got home, her mother muttered again: "When will you return to Qushi?"
Hu Tao asked in confusion: "Mom, why do you keep asking me to go back? I don't want to leave, can't I just stay with you in Jiang City?"
Mom said: "No, you can go and do whatever you want. Anyway, don't stay in Jiang City."
"Why, Mom?"
"Why else? He Jun is also in Jiang City. I'm worried that you guys will meet him again. He's not a good person anyway, so you have to guard against him."
Hu Tao was speechless for a while, but she didn't expect it to be for this reason.
Said: "Mom, don't worry, Jiang City is so big, how can we meet you, it's impossible in this life."
His brother interjected from the side: "Haven't you heard the saying that the road between enemies is narrow? The experience summed up by our ancestors is still very accurate."
