Chapter 707: The Best Way

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon seeing the situation, Su Li began to join his mother in coaxing his little sister. His eyebrows twitched as he said, “Yes, even though our father hasn’t been home for several days, he loves us very much. He loves our mother and Lele even more!”

At this, Su Le burst into laughter, her long eyelashes curling up. She began to eat more heartily. Su Bing, who was sitting next to her, chimed in, “Mother, you’re going to bring some snacks to father and his colleagues tomorrow, right? My brother and I would like to stay home and review our lessons. We’ll take care of our little sister. You can go by yourself, we’ll wait for you at home.”

Upon hearing this, Su Li felt a sense of unease. Who said anything about staying home to review lessons? He wanted to visit the slaughterhouse too!

But before he could voice his objection, he received a stern look from his elder brother, silencing him. He lowered his head and continued eating, his mouth pouting even though he had nothing more to say. Just like that, the matter was settled.

After dinner, when only the two brothers were left, Su Bing explained his actions. “Little brother, don’t feel wronged. Let me ask you, do you like our home as it is now?”

Su Li didn’t respond verbally, but his face showed his feelings of being wronged as he nodded. Was there even a need to ask?

Of course, he loved their home as it was now. He hoped that it would be the forever home for him and his siblings. He couldn’t bear to lose his mother, Gu Zi.

Su Bing nodded and said, “I feel the same way. I also love our home as it is now. That’s why I suggested that our mother should go to the slaughterhouse alone tomorrow.

“Think about it, our father is often very busy with work, sometimes not seeing our mother for days. Our mother is so outstanding, what if she is taken away by another man? Men nowadays have many schemes, it’s hard to guard against them.

“So, we need to create opportunities for our parents to be alone together. We can’t let their marital affection fade. This is the best way to protect our home. We can visit the slaughterhouse any other weekend, but this time, we can’t disturb our parents’ alone time. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

As Su Li listened to his brother’s explanation, his expression gradually brightened. Yes, why hadn’t he thought of that? His brother, the old fox, was indeed clever!

With the clouds on Su Li’s face cleared, he woke up early the next day. After breakfast, he began to worry. “Mother, today is your first time meeting the new employees. As the wife of the slaughterhouse owner, you should dress up a bit. Wear something beautiful and put on some makeup, okay?”

Gu Zi tilted her head, looking at her second son with a puzzled expression. Suddenly, she feigned sadness. “Su Li, are you saying that your mother is not beautiful without makeup?”

Seeing that his mother had misunderstood his intentions, Su Li quickly waved his hands and apologized. “Mother is the most beautiful woman in the world, but, but didn’t you say that wearing makeup is a form of respect for others? I think, as the owner’s wife visiting the slaughterhouse, it’s a very serious matter…”

Gu Zi, with a smile playing at the corners of her mouth, calmly watched her second son stumble over his words. She was somewhat satisfied. She hadn’t expected that in just a few short months, this boy’s ability to express himself had improved so much. He could even come up with such an answer.

As a mother, she was quite pleased. Seeing that her second son was struggling to continue, she interjected, “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I’ll go put on some makeup and dress up nicely to bring snacks to your father. You boys behave yourselves at home.”

The Daqing Slaughterhouse was located on the outskirts of the eastern city. The vast stretches of land here had long been abandoned, with only a few areas still being cultivated.

Following the address left by Su Shen, Gu Zi took a half-hour bus ride to get there. As she stepped off the bus, her first impression of the place was its desolation, with hardly any signs of human activity.

She walked towards the buildings from the bus stop. A gust of cold spring wind blew past, causing her to shiver involuntarily. It reminded her of descriptions she had read in books.

This area on the outskirts of the eastern city would be expropriated and planned by the government in a few years. It would become the new city center, and the residents here would become wealthy overnight, becoming the envy of many as they profited from the land reclamation.

Gu Zi hadn’t had the chance to ask whether Su Shen had bought or rented the land here. If possible, it would be best to buy it.

In the future, this piece of land would bring immense wealth. Knowing that there was money to be made, of course, she wanted to earn it. With these thoughts in mind, Gu Zi quickened her pace and soon saw the sign for the “Daqing Slaughterhouse.”

At that moment, inside the slaughterhouse, Su Shen had stayed up all night with his staff. After having breakfast and taking a bath, he was preparing to catch up on some sleep. But before he could lie down, there was a knock on his office door. It was Jin Long’s voice, “Brother Shen, quickly open the door. Your wife is here to see you!”
