BTTS 370

 Chapter 370.  Chest freezer

The new semester was going to start in a short period. Lin Qing He was already preparing for lessons. As for Zhou Qing Bai, he was contacting suppliers.

Suppliers for ice lollies and drinks.

Like big white pear ice lollies. There were also many ice creams. However, ice creams need to be frozen in a large refrigerator.

So after Zhou Qing Bai contacted the supplier, he went to the big shopping mall to check out the refrigerator.

He came over to talk to his wife after checking it.

"The big shopping mall got a new batch of refrigerators in the past two days. I think the price isn't too expensive. I told them I want to buy four and they said they can give a lower price and will deliver it to the door." Zhou Qing Bai explained.

"That kind won't do." Lin Qing He shook her head.

Zhou Qing Bai stared at her.

"That kind of green refrigerator is suitable for home use. We need to commercial chest freezers," Lin Qing He said.

'80's fridge

"Chest freezer?" Zhou Qing Bai hadn't seen this so-called chest freezer yet.

There was chest freezers at this time. Lin Qing He had seen it in a big shopping mall over Hai City and said, "New semester is only five days away. Still got time to make a trip to and back from Hai City. I'll go."

"I'll go with you." Zhou Qing Bai stated after hearing this.

"Okay." Lin Qing He grinned and agreed.

So the couple set off for Hai City. They left just like they said. Extremely carefree.

When Hu Zi and Xu Sheng Mei arrived, their uncle and aunt had gone to Hai City.

As for why no one knew. In short, they went to Hai City.

The clothing shops hadn't opened yet. Hu Zi stayed in the dumpling shop to help Zhou Xuan, Zhou Gui Lai, and Zhou Er Ni. Xu Sheng Mei went over to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou's side.

Old Madam Hu happened to be sweeping the snow outside. It was still snowing at this time.

"Isn't this Young Mei? Back so soon? I heard your grandma say that you will return after the Lantern Festival." Ols Madam Hu smilingly spoke when she saw her.

"Thinking now my uncle and aunt's shop has no one watching, I came here early. I'm idle at home anyway." Xu Sheng Mei softly smiled.

Old Madam Hu's grin widened even more: "Such a hard-working girl. You're eighteen this year, right?"

"En." Xu Sheng Mei meekly smiled: "Granny Hu, sit down first. I'll go in to see my grandparents."

"Really filial girl. Go." Old Madam Hu was completely satisfied.

Xu Sheng Mei entered the house. Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei were both in the bun shop at this time. At home, Mother Zhou and Su sisters were watching TV.

"Grandma." Xu Sheng Mei greeted Mother Zhou when she entered the door.

Mother Zhou was also a little surprised: "Why are you back so soon? Wasn't supposed to after the Lantern Festival? Where's Hu Zi?"

"Hu Zi is in the dumpling shop." Xu Sheng Mei replied, and then continued: "Well, I was thinking since I'm idle at home, I might as well come here to help a little bit."

Mother Zhou was pleased, "Very thoughtful."

"Grandma, my aunt (Xiao Mei) and uncle are at the bun shop?" Xu Sheng Mei asked.

"En. Your grandpa, Cheng Cheng, and Xun Xun are over there too." Mother Zhou confirmed.

"Grandma, my uncle and aunt said they are going to Hai City. Why are they going there now? I heard that classes are nearly starting, right?" Xu Sheng Mei said.

"I don't know. Your uncle and aunt's matter doesn't need my worry," Mother Zhou responded.

She can't help her youngest son and daughter-in-law. Helping Xiao Mei watch the children was enough. She won't intervene in other things.

All in all, Youngest Son and his wife were reliable.

Hearing this, Xu Sheng Mei knew that her grandma was clueless. She changed the topic then and talked about her mother wanting her brother to come with her this year.

However, she was stopped by her aunt.

"Tell your mother not to decide for your aunt. She hasn't asked your aunt and wants you to bring Sheng Qiang here? Don't you know that Liu Ni was sent back?" Mother Zhou responded with a frown.

Her life was peaceful now. She didn't want any trouble to disturb her and her spouse's happy and decent life.

"I persuaded. My mother wouldn't listen. Grandma, don't worry, he didn't follow along this time." Xu Sheng Mei approximately understood what her grandma meant.

"Not coming is the right choice. Before coming, have to discuss with your aunt. He can only come if she agrees. If not, she won't host him." Mother Zhou said.

"This is her nephew." Xu Sheng Mei mumbled: "Although he's related to my uncle and not my aunt, she can't be so heartless. Arrange work for others, and not for his nephew."

Mother Zhou' didn’t like to listen to these words: “What not arranging work for his nephew? There's Hu Zi. Also for you and Er Ni?”
She reminded, “Sheng Mei, don't say these words. It's very hurtful."

Xu Sheng Mei's face turned pale and said: "I know. My mouth slipped. Grandma, don't tell anyone."

"Alright. Just do your job well. As for the rest, don't decide for your aunt. Just do what she tells you. Do your own part is enough. It's been a year. Are you not clear about your aunt's temper?" Mother Zhou waved her hand.

When provoked, she would even let her, the mother-in-law, lose face in person. Also, in front of her youngest son.

When unprovoked, she and old man were directly brought to live in the capital. And bought TV set and electric fan for her and old man.

Every month, she was given twenty yuan for grocery.

Mother Zhou felt that this life couldn't be any easier.

So she really didn't want to intervene that much now.

To say that the reason why she can think it through, it had to be because of the comparison with the neighbors, old Madam Hu and old Madam Zhu.

Others' daughter-in-law can't compare with Lin Qing He's generous action.

Father Zhou had also given her the talk. So she thought it through without her noticing. She didn't care about anything. She only had to mind her and old man's food.

Of course, her grandsons and granddaughters were still young, so she would help mind them.

Xu Sheng Mei almost vomited to death. She didn't even notice that her grandmother was biased toward her aunt now.

The favored Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai were buying chest freezers in a big shopping mall in Hai City.

This chest freezer wasn't big. A total volume of 200 liters or so.

The price was very expensive. Still, Lin Qing He dared to seal the deal and instantly got three sets.

One was for Zhou Qing Bai’s dumpling shop to store frozen meat to keep it fresh. Two were to be placed in the beverage shop for ice cream.

In fact, with two freezers at the beverage store, it was still not enough. They will need four. But four will cause a large stir.

Wait for the later period and then slowly expand. Wait for this summer vacation and they'll go to the south to take a look.

In addition to these three freezers, Lin Qing He also bought a washing machine. She got someone to transport it to a place where there were no people and sent them away. She looked around to make sure no one was around and put them directly into the space.

Then the couple set off on the journey back without saying a word.
