 Chapter 528. Acting up again

Mother Weng said: "I had consider it, but I just don't know what I can do."

"Get a shop, open a clothing store or a dry seafood store?" Lin Qing He suggested.

The reason why she would give such advice was based on the fact that her relationship with Mother Weng was indeed close. Otherwise she wouldn't say that.

"Isn't this competing with you?" Mother Weng was taken aback and said immediately.

"The capital is such a big city. What competing with me? The truth is that if you want to open one, it's best that that we don't open in the same area." Lin Qing He said.

"Open what shop? The whole family earns money. You have money to spend even if you don't go to work." Father Weng persuaded.

"How can it be the same? You don't know that I am about to get moldy from being idle at home." Mother Weng's heart was moved and responded to him.

Father Weng pointed out: "Do you know how to do business?"

Mother Weng was silenced. She lost confidence because she had never done business before.

Lin Qing He smilingly said: "If you really want to do it, then go to my shop as a free labor and see how its like. If you think it's good, then you consider it?"

"That works." Mother Weng's eyes lit up.

"Then what about mine and Guo Dong's meal?" Father Weng sighed.

"You two go to the cafeteria. I will eat at Qing He's side. So I won't go back." Mother Weng replied.

Lin Qing He smiled. Opening a shop at this time wasn't bad. Even if she buy a shop, she will not regret it. Buy a better one and the retirement income was settled for the future. This was the charm of this time. It was also its worst factor.

"Alright then. If you can't do it, don't cause trouble and go home early to cook." Father Weng said.

Mother Weng gave him an eye-roll.

After taking a soak and having dinner here, they drove back.

Weng Guo Dong just went out to eat. Only when he came back did he see his parents and said, "Did you go to Uncle Zhou's place?"

"Went to the hot spring with your Uncle Zhou and Auntie Lin. Starting tomorrow, you and your dad will eat in the work cafeteria. Don't come home to eat." Mother Weng stated.

"?" Weng Guo Liang Dong looked at his dad with a question mark.

"Your mom is going there to learn to open a shop. She plans to learn from your auntie Lin and wants to do her own business. She'll probably be very busy." Father Weng sighed.

He didn't look down on self-employed. Self-employed wasn't bad, but he really didn't need his wife to open a shop.

"I can't stay idle. It's so boring. I feel out of touch with society." Mother Weng said.

Weng Guo Liang Dong commented, "The food in our cafeteria is unpalatable."

"Even when it's unpalatable, don't find me. Who can you blame since you won't find a wife to cook for you?" Mother Weng straightforwardly threw back.

With one sentence word, Weng Guo Liang Dong shut up. Fine, must be eaten even when it's unpalatable.

"At such an age, you don't know to find a wife back to warm the bed. The bed is cold and the pot is also cold. What kind of poor life are you living here?" Mother Weng spouted again.

"Alright, alright. Mom, go and do your business. I won't say anymore." Weng Guo Liang Dong said quickly.

"It's useless even if you say. Would I listen to your words?" Mother Weng harrumphed.

Then she went to take out the family assets and counted them. She turned to Father Weng: "Do you know any shop available?"

"You want to buy one?" Father Weng held his forehead. His wife had this temperament since she was young. Saying wind was rain.

"Qing He said that if one want to do business, one have to buy a shop." Mother Weng said.

"You don't know whether to do it or not. What if you try and not want to do it? It's not too late to settle this when you are sure." Father Weng responded.

Mother Weng stated: "You still have to look out for shops."

"I remember." Father Weng uttered helplessly.

Only then, Mother Weng was satisfied and didn't say anything. She leaned into Father Weng’s arms and said, “Old Weng, from what I see, your company isn't doing very good. When my shop make money, you can come out and work for me.”

"Okay." Regardless of his internal thoughts, Father Weng was willing to coax his wife.

Weng Guo Liang Dong took in his parents' actions and felt like he was fed a handful of dog food.

Still, he felt envious. His parents were childhood sweethearts, so their relationship was very strong. Now at this age, they were still sticky like glue.

Why didn't he have a little green plum back then?

Mother Weng came over the next day. Lin Qing He arranged her to the clothing store that Zhou Er Ni was in charge of before.

Now the weather was cold, it was off-peak season. Business was relatively so-so. Still, there were people coming in to shop. So there was space for Mother Weng to train.

Folding clothes, packing clothes, hanging clothes, and taking inventory of clothes, etc. There were many areas to learn.

At noon, Mother Weng came over to eat and remarked: "Though this shop isn't big, there are still a lot of things to do."

"It's fine once you get used to it. When you open up your own business in the future and the business is so good that you can't be manage, get young girl to help out." Lin Qing He suggested.

Although a little tired, Mother Weng was happily working away. She went back after eating at this side in the evening.

"Tired?" Seeing her like this, Father Weng massaged her shoulders and spoke.

"It's very tiring. No wonder it's hard work. The shoulders aren't sore. You can massage my legs." Mother Weng said.

On the first day of work, she was exhausted from standing. If she was to open a shop on her own in the future, she will definitely get a young girl to help out.

"It's better to cook at home," Weng Guo Liang Dong commented.

"Go to one side." Mother Weng responded.

Weng Guo Liang Dong rubbed his nose and winked at his dad. His dad acted like he didn't see anything at all and ignored him.

"Can't keep eating in the cafeteria. How about I eat at Auntie Lin's place. I will pay for the food." Weng Guo Dong suggested.

"At this age, you aren't married and have no wife to cook for you. Now you want to go to your Auntie Lin's to eat? You don't feel ashamed, I do. You aren't allowed to go!" Mother Weng said.

Weng Guo Dong felt that he was abused by his family. Now his mom found an opportunity to ridicule him. Can he keep staying in this family?

He was thinking, if it was time for him go out and rent a place by himself?

Like this way, Mother Weng went to the shop to report every day. It was fine to eat at that side. No money was charge.

That day, Lin Qing He said goodbye to Mother Weng. Then she came over to find Zhou Xiao Mei to take a bath in the bathhouse.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, do you know that the old Madam Zhu from next door started to act up again." Zhou Xiao Mei complained.

"Huh?" Lin Qing He looked at her.

"She had intentions in that aspect last year. But this year there has been no movement. I thought it was an illusion. Unexpectedly, she come to find my mother every day and praise her grandson overtly and secretly." Zhou Xiao Mei explained.

"Let her go love her grandson. Do she still need someone to join her?" Lin Qing He smiled.

"She set her eyes on Si Ni." Zhou Xiao Mei said.

"Then she got good eyes," Lin Qing He laughed when she heard these words.
