She suddenly realized that her shop was still too small.
She had to take it step by step; she couldn’t expect to become rich overnight.
"It’s time for dinner, take them to eat somewhere nearby..."
"Okay, I’ll pack a meal for you."
At mealtime, Zhao Tianhe spoke up, "Third Brother, we can’t always eat out, a single meal costs quite a bit of money."
There were many of them, and a meal could cost seven or eight yuan.
That price was not cheap.
"Eating noodles is fine too."
They weren’t too particular about food.
"Right, eating out can also cost a good amount of money."
Zhao Tianlei said with a smile, "Today the store is open for the first time, let’s have a good meal. In a few days, if you ask me to treat you to a meal outside, I might be reluctant."
Eating out indeed wasn’t cheap.
Zhao Tianlei knew this as well.
"Wife, it’s time to eat..."
Yun Xiaoxiao started eating from the opened lunch box, "Do you have any classes this afternoon?"
"There’s one more class in the afternoon."
Everyone had classes, and after eating, they would go to school.
"Lanhua, Xinxin, are you guys familiar with how to sell things now?"
Zhang Lanhua wanted to say she still wasn’t very familiar with it, but knowing her sister-in-law and the others had to attend classes, she braced herself and said, "I’m already familiar with it."
Zhao Xinxin, on the other hand, was calm; she was just afraid of making mistakes in the accounts.
"I’ll take my time with the calculations."
Yun Xiaoxiao and Zhao Tianlei both had afternoon classes, so they were going to school.
"I’ve never been to Third Brother’s school, and I don’t know if it’s big or not?"
"Sister-in-law mentioned that there’s night school, and we could also attend night school."
What is night school?
Why, after coming to the Capital City, do they not know so many things?
"When we have time, we can visit Third Brother and sister-in-law’s school."
They might not be able to attend university, but they could go and see what a university looked like, to broaden their horizons.
The schools they knew weren’t very big, like the Zhao Family Village Team school, or the middle school in the town.
In the afternoon, there weren’t many customers, so Zhao Tianhe and Cao Dali went out for a walk, leaving Zhao Xinxin and Zhang Lanhua to handle the shop easily.
They warmly welcomed any customers.
However, their speech still had an accent, but fortunately, the prices were there.
"Xinxin, it seems we need to learn to speak the local language, otherwise we won’t understand what they’re saying."
Zhao Xinxin also felt a bit troubled.
The sister-in-law could communicate with them without any barriers.
But they couldn’t do that yet.
"We need to learn..."
In the afternoon, there were even fewer customers, many of whom came for hair bands and socks.
Zhao Family Village Team.
"Brother, shall we take Grandma to the county town hospital?" Fang Meiyun’s gaze settled on the door, knowing that Grandma was lying in bed inside, seemingly waiting for death.
This year had brought a bumper harvest, so there was no need to skimp on food, and they could have full bellies.
But Grandma had fallen ill.
Otherwise, brother could have gone to the Capital City to earn money with Brother Da Li and the others.
"Grandma doesn’t want to go," Fang Chaoyang’s face was a bit pale, even a bit gloomy.
Grandma Fang didn’t want to go to the hospital; she also didn’t want to spend the money.
Now that she was getting on in years, she didn’t want to be a burden on her grandson. What if they were to end up in debt? When would he be able to get married?
And as for her other children, she had already lost hope in them.
Fang Chaoyang sighed deeply, looking up at the sky. The cold was just starting to set in, the sun at noon allowed for just one layer of clothing, but he felt chillingly cold all over.
