BTTS 468




 Chapter 468. Big truck


The dry good shop had been fully decorated, but the dry goods han't been delivered yet.

It was five days after the decoration finished, when Lin Qing He made time to make a trip with Zhou Qing Bai and then took out the family truck.

A whole truck of goods was transported by Zhou Qing Bai to the dry good shop.

Lin Qing He came with him and helped to arrange the goods. This time there weren't many types of goods. Just fish gelatin, sea cucumber, abalone, dried cuttlefish, and dried salted fish. Each were in large quantities.

After the truck was unloaded, the originally empty shop seemed very full now.

Lin Qing He had already set the price of the goods. There was a list of the price of everything prepared. The profits were basically set at half.

What's more, there weren't many types. It was easy to adapt, so she told them to start selling.

But because the things weren't cheap and the couple had learned to do business for almost half a month, Lin Qing He still called Hu Zi to come over here to help.

Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai drove over to the dumpling shop.

Zhou Gui Lai and Zhou Xuan, who were busy in the dumpling shop, were attracted by the truck.

"Dad, Mom, is this our truck?" Zhou Xuan, who was always calm, couldn't help feeling a little excited now.

One got to know, they had been pining on Wang Yuan's car for a long time.

But that was too expensive. Few tens of thousands. Required grouping a few ten-thousand household to afford it. So they didn’t hold any hope.

Unexpectedly, their parents bought a truck back.

"Asked someone from the factory in the south to drive over and bring this load of good. I called and rushed it a few times. It only arrived now." Lin Qing He bragged without any practice

Obviously the sons didn't pay attention to this.

"Mom, how much is this truck?" Zhou Gui Lai asked as he climbed into the driver's seat.

"Dead expensive. All the savings at home were spent." Lin Qing He waved her hand.

"Still worth it. Dad, teach me. If supplies need to be bought in the future, I can just drive over and buy it!" Zhou Gui Lai said immediately.

"No, you are too young." Zhou Qing Bai flatly refused.

Lin Qing He also piped in: "That right. How old you are? You dare to learn to drive? Wait until you are 18 years old."

"Mom, I can learn." Zhou Xuan said.

"That's right. I can't learn. Second Brother can. He is seventeen and he's that tall!" Zhou Gui Lai knew that he had no chance learning to drive judging by his dad's nonchalant tone. He can only fight for his second brother.

If his second brother can master it, it will be much easier to go out in the future.

They can go soak in the hot spring again. Because the car belonged to Wang Yuan, the future brother-in-law, they can't really go to the hot spring all the time. But if they own a car, they can go anytime right?

"All right. You can learn, Second." Lin Qing He nodded.

Once his wife spoke, Zhou Qing Bai didn't have any other comments and said, "Find a place to learn by yourself. After getting the driver's license, you can touch the car."

Zhou Xuan instantly agreed.

Zhou Qing Bai went into the shop to work away. Lin Qing He called her two sons: "Get in the car. Mom will take you around."

"Mom, you can drive?" Zhou Xuan said in a daze.

"Your old mom took the driving license test in the south. So, sons, don't underestimate your old mom." Lin Qing He raised her eyebrows.

Seeing that their mom could actually drive, both of them were stunned.

"My mom, I feel that there isn't anything you can't do in this world!" Zhou Gui Lai responded and flattered.

"Where do you want to go?" Lin Qing He said.

"Whatever you want. Mom, just drive around." Zhou Xuan replied.

"Mom, let's find time to go to the hot springs? I missed the last time I went. It's been so long since then." Zhou Gui Lai jollily brought up.

"We can find a time to soak." Lin Qing He nodded.

When the time comes, she will find Mother Weng to go together. Zhou Xiao Mei too. As for Mother Zhou, she didn't plan to take her. The last time, she grumbled all the way back.

Even when she knew that the elderly were used to being frugal, Lin Qing He still didn't buy her words.

"How about next Sunday?" Zhou Gui Lai hurriedly asked.

"We'll see. If there's time, we'll go." Lin Qing He drove the car. Her driving skills were particularly stable, so she brought them to Wang Yuan's garment factory.

Wang Yuan happened to be standing outside. He saw them. What's more, it was the sight of Fourth Aunt actually driving.

When they went to the hot springs this year, he had heard Zhou Qing Bai mention it. But it was only when Wang Yuan saw Lin Qing He driving such a truck did he truly felt admiration.

"Fourth Aunt, you are too astounding." When they got out of the car, Wang Yuan greeted them and exclaimed.

"It's just driving a car. What's there to be surprised about." Lin Qing He waved her hand.

Wang Yuan smiled: "Though it said like that, there aren't many women who can drive." He hadn't witness it before.

Lin Qing He brought down some dried seafood like fish gelatin, abalone, and sea cucumber from the car and said, "I prepared these for you. I originally wanted get Er Ni to bring it to you, but Er Ni is currently busy. So I brought it here. We're having big sea crabs at home in the evening. You can come over and eat them with us."

"Alright." Wang Yuan didn't act reserved. He smiled and agreed.

Lin Qing He took her two sons over to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou's side. She also brought some dry goods here. In addition, there were a few large crabs, which were from a separate box.

There were a lot of people on this side, so a few were allocated to here.

However, the dried goods and sea crabs didn't shocked Father Zhou and Mother Zhou as much as the truck. 

"This...was bought by the two of you?" Father Zhou uttered with excitement.

"How much does it cost?" Mother Zhou couldn't help but said with a glowing red face.

"My mom said that the money at home was basically emptied." Zhou Gui Lai answered.

"It doesn't matter if it is all spent. The shop can still make money. The car is useful in the future. Like getting supplies or something. You will definitely earn it back." Father Zhou said boldly.

His son bought a car. His son was someone with a car!

"Qing Bai didn't come?" Mother Zhou looked around and froze before uttering: "Who drove over just now?"

"I drove." Lin Qing He answered.

After saying this, she felt that the gleam in her mother-in-law's eyes was very different.

Of course, Mother Zhou's gaze changed. She really couldn't find anything Fourth's wife couldn't do.

Look at this, she can even drive a car like this!

"Father, Mother, those big sea crabs cooked by steaming. We'll head back first to work away." Lin Qing He couldn't stand her mother-in-law's gaze and said.

"Wait, Fourth's wife, grab a chicken back to nourish your body. I hade saved a lot of eggs during this period. Take some back to make some the egg soup to eat." Mother Zhou hurriedly spoke.

    2. Yesterday I reread chapters 1-70, and my heart warms up Given zou qingbai's struggle to ascend to his wife kang, and Da wa who didn't want to study because he thought learning was useless (hearing it from his 2nd aunt), young San wa who started talking a lot, and Er wa was always flirtinghis parent's. I suggest re-reading, 'cause that's how we figured it out. Much time has passed!!!

      Sorry my english is broken ^_^
