Chapter 284. Why would he fall for you?
During the meal, a total of four guests came. All of them left after finished and another came in again.
If one looks at it this way, it basically counted as having no business. Even Lin Qing He felt like the business was so-so?
Zhou Qing Bai handled the clearing up and cleaning of the table.
She took her two youngest home and went to rest. While Zhou Qing Bai continued to the business with Zhou Kai.
They won't have dumplings at night. Instead, it was mantou. They didn't bother to open the stove at home. They simply came over to the shop to eat.
The main was mantou. There was a pot of mutton soup.
Lin Qing He was very surprised: "Where did the lamb come from?"
"It's not much right now. There will be more at the end of the year." Zhou Qing Bai said.
The boss told him that he plans to raise a lot more this year. The supply of mutton will be quite a quantity.
The whole family ate mantou with mutton soup and was completely content.
It was actually late at this time, almost seven o'clock. When the family was eating mutton soup and mantou, there was still a guest entering.
He/She even asked: "Are there any lamb dumplings?"
"None." Zhou Qing Bai went to serve him/her and showed the menu. It was very simple. Four selection. Dumpling with pork & cabbage filling, pork & mushroom filling, tofu & pork filling, or pork and pickled veg filling.
It can't be helped. Currently, there were only so many ingredients. When spring begins, there will be all kinds of fruits and vegetables on the market, so there will definitely be more varieties.
Still, no one disliked such a humble dumpling shop. There weren't many people who do business, so how couldn't they possibly mind.
The customer sat down and ate a bowl of pork and pickled veg dumplings. Then he/she paid the money and left.
Lin Qing He continued with the usual routine. After eating, she took the two youngest back home and do what they should be. Whether it was preparing the lesson or studying.
Zhou Kai and Zhou Qing Bai didn't close the shop until nine o'clock and returned.
After a brief tidying up, they went back to the house to check today's income.
He did all the calculations accurately. One portion didn't earn munch. Just five cents, which was considered as labor.
A total of 37 portions were sold today. He earned almost two yuan.
These two yuans weren't much. However, when Lin Qing He sees him earnestly keeping the accounts, she found her tough man adorable.
This was probably the so-called gap moe!
"It will get better and better in the future." Zhou Qing Bai turned to see his wife watching him and told her.
Today’s business gave him a lot of confidence. After all, it wasn't difficult. When the guests come, they order what they want and he can serve it to them.
Today, an old lady came over to eat and asked him why a grown man came out to open a shop by himself.
He answered that his wife was teaching and his sons were studying, so they don't have time. He can handle it by himself.
Once asked and found out to be from Bei University, she praised him for his good sight and can pick a wife.
The corner of Zhou Qing Bai’s mouth raised slightly. Lin Qing He thought he was in a good mood because he made money today. She went up and plucked a kiss on him, and said, “It’s just opened today and it’s very cold. Certainly won't have much business. Since there are so many orders, you can tell it's promising. Once spring begins, there's no need to describe what it'll be like." Lin Qing He said.
"En," Zhou Qing Bai responded and said, "It's getting late. Time to go to bed."
Lin Qing He got slept. Probably because her family's Qing Bai was a little bit excited today and have more requests. Lin Qing He let him do as he liked.
After eating and drinking, Zhou Qing Bai continued to open the shop early the next morning.
Lin Qing He brought their three sons over for breakfast, and then each made way to their own school.
The fact that Zhou Qing Bai worked as a self-employed in the market side and opened a dumpling shop had spread all over the apartment building.
Don't think because there were no communication tools in this era, it'll be slow. News spread very fast. Even if Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai haven't talked about it, people still knew.
"It's not shameful to be self-employed? His wife and children are all college students. Especially his wife. She's a teacher. But he goes and becomes self-employed." Someone said.
"What's wrong with self-employing? Still, it's based on own ability to eat."
"It is. Afraid, this business won't work out. Don't know if they can afford the rent?"
"Yeah. Couldn't they do something else? Did it have to be dumplings? It's not a rare thing."
"When I was passing by, I saw there were people eating inside."
"Still, won't make much money."
"..."
These words were passed to the neighboring old Zhang Family. Only then, old Zhang Family knew that Zhou Qing Bai wasn't home and had gone to the shop.
Old Zhang family's eldest daughter who had returned as a divorcee, Zhang Mei He took advantage of Lin Qing He and her sons' absence more than once and knocked on the door here to ask for help.
But it was a pity that Zhou Qing Bai had never opened the door and no one has responded to her.
It turned out he opened a shop.
"I say, Sister, it can't be that you like that married man?" her sister Zhang Mei Lian said.
"What married man? That surnamed Lin is not worthy of a man like him. Also, I just want to be friends with him. You didn't see her last time. Her attitude was very bad. She gave Brother Zhou attitude in front of me." Zhang Mei He answered.
"Sister, if you become an item with him, what will happen to me? I fell for Zhou Kai." Mentioning Zhou Kai, Zhang Mei Lian's face blushed.
That tall boy really had a charming scent all over his body.
There was one time when he was running up the stairs and she was about to go down, she encountered the hormonal smell of his male body.
It had her fascinated.
He was three years younger than her, but it didn't matter. She can wait for him to grow up.
This year, he was sixteen. He became more and more intrigued by his appearance. She was willing to wait for him for two years,. Once he is eighteen years old, she could go with him to get the certificate.
And she was also willing to be his woman.
As for her previous experiences, she won't think about it anymore. She decided to be with Zhou Kai.
Zhang Mei He really didn’t know that her little sister actually fell in love with her crush’s son. Her face said did you make a mistake: "That's a hairless boy. You are so much older than him. What's more, he is a Bei University student. After graduating, he probably gets assigned a job. How can he look at you?"
Zhang Mei Lian was ruthlessly pulled out of the beautiful fantasy she was immersed in by her own sister.
But she wasn't one who would take it down lying. She looked at her sister and said, "What do you mean by this? So what if I fell for Zhou Kai? Me falling for Zhou Kai is better than you eyeing on someone with a wife. Have you not learned your lessons? If you hadn’t escaped fast enough and then aborted the married man's baby, you thought you could escape? Now that you’re back and you're still like? "
These Zhang's tongues spare no one.
ReplyDeleteI’m patiently waiting for the face slap. *holds a fly swatter to join in on the fun when it happens* 🤣
DeleteAre these heroes suffering a mental affliction or what?! Fighting for Qing Bai and Da Wa like as if the two have shown interest. I cant wait for LQH to put them in their place. Thank you for the update
ReplyDeleteShameless and Delusional women.
ReplyDeleteThe audacity of these two doesn't even compare with LQH's fingernail
ReplyDeleteIt's fine to crush on whoever but let's not make plans as though the men involved already agreed. I wonder how their parents raised these girls, that they actually think they're premium quality that can defeat the FL? Imagine how inflated their egos are to be like that... 😕
ReplyDeleteWoah, a lot of comments 🤣🤣.. love this chapter not because of those bi**** but the couple always so sweet, the dog food so delicious
ReplyDeleteIf LQH isn't worthy then how can a divorcee who aborted her bastard with a married man be. Shoo bish and let them be
ReplyDeleteHahahaha i like this duo sisters, hope they give a good fight hahahha, thank you for the chapter <3
ReplyDeleteThese zhangs are shameless
ReplyDeleteI think using “they” for the customers is better than using “he/she” since no gender is specified 😊
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter! ❤️
Wow these sisters are really something. It can all get interesting. As always the story is very enjoyable
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chapter!
ReplyDeleteLin Qing He got slept. Probably because her family's Qing Bai was a little bit excited today and have more requests. Lin Qing He let him do as he liked. -> first sentence needs a little work, and I would connect next 2 sentences, they sound like one phase.
This year, he was sixteen. He became more and more intrigued by his appearance. She was willing to wait for him for two years,. Once he is eighteen years old, she could go with him to get the certificate -> I'm not sure if in second sentence you wanted to say 'He' rho it does make sense. There is also additional comma that's not needed.
Now that you’re back and you're still like? " -> still like this?" I think
Thank you for the chapter 🌷🌷🌷
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chapter!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny how ZML already planned getting a certificate even though our ZK was so afraid of them.. delusional stalker alert..

ReplyDeleteМладшая дочь семьи Чжан удивительна. Чжоу Кай с ней даже не разговаривал много, но она уверена, что он женится на ней через два года. Она думает, он не встретит другую девушку?
