96 Preparing to Open a Shop

Su Binglan knew her family would thrive as long as they worked together.

She said, “Mother, I plan to rent a shop and split it into two. I will use one to make and sell tofu, while the other will be a dessert shop. You guys can manage the tofu shop alongside Big Brother and Sister-in-law. That way, Father won’t have to work so hard weaving baskets.

Su Binglan did this so her family would not have to be apart. Then Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin could live with her parents and manage the shop together.

Su Binglan also had plans for herself. “If the business goes well, we can open more shops.”

!!

Su Binglan wanted to say the word “franchise,” but no one would understand it since it was too modern.

Meanwhile, Su Fenmao had an iron heart and firmly believed he had the best daughter in the world. He felt she was considerate and sensible. “It’s okay. I never feel tired.”

His family had become increasingly harmonious, so he did not feel tired working for them.

Su Binglan spoke again, “But you can relax a little more if we open the tofu shop. You will have an easier time earning money too.”

Shen Qiuhai said with some concern, “But we won’t have enough time to handle the fields then.”

The villagers typically valued land more than anything. Even if they could do business in town, they could not bear to neglect their fields.

Su Binglan replied, “We will make a lot more money when we open the shops, Mother. We won’t neglect the fields either because we can hire people to look after them for us. It won’t cost much to do that. That way, we can manage the shop while the workers look after our fields.”

Shen Qiuhua felt it was reasonable after hearing her daughter’s explanation. “Okay, we will do as you say, Binglan.”

Moreover, the family realized they could earn a significant living from making and selling tofu.

Liu Yinyin also did not have any objections. She only felt her sister-in-law was terrific and would listen to whatever she said. However, she thought of the candied chestnuts and said, “So, will we continue selling the chestnuts in town?”

Su Binglan explained, “We can set up a small table in front of the shop. It won’t take up much space, so we can put some snacks there and sell them, including the candied chestnuts.”

The Sus became increasingly excited the more Su Binglan spoke. They looked forward to opening their shop to do business.

“Binglan, your family will support whatever you want to do. This is the money you worked so hard to earn, so I will keep it aside for you to use when you open your shop.”

Su Binglan nodded and said, “Okay, Mother.”

Nonetheless, she checked her brother’s pulse and temperature before having dinner with her parents and Luo Jin’an. Still, she was worried and checked on Su Wenzhe again before bed.

Liu Yinyin asked with concern, “He hasn’t woken up yet. Will he be okay?”

She had given her husband the medicine, as Su Binglan said, but Su Wenzhe had yet to wake up.

Su Binglan replied, “Big Brother is only tired and needs to rest more. He will be fine when he wakes up. Just be patient.”

Liu Yinyin was relieved after hearing this.

Su Binglan prepared to leave with Luo Jin’an, but before leaving, she said to Liu Yinyin, “If Big Brother has any problems in the middle of the night, please come to my house and call me.”

Liu Yinyin nodded and said, “Okay.”

After returning home, Su Binglan prepared to boil some medicine for Luo Jin’an. However, it was already late, and she looked sleepy. After all, she had woken up early that morning and had a hectic day.

Luo Jin’an looked at Su Binglan and said, “You should rest now. I’ll take care of the medicine.”

Su Binglan shook her head and refused, “It’s okay. You don’t know how to brew the medicine. I’ll go to bed after you’ve downed it.”

Although Su Binglan did not need her husband’s help, Luo Jin’an still sat quietly by her side. He simply accompanied his wife silently.
