Hu Zi sighed. It was no wonder Aunt told him to study. No matter what it was, as long as one was lacking in an area, they can learn.
He had learned a lot from the time when he watching the shops. Now the hawking business was getting better and better. This was because of the foundation laid by serving people in the past.
If not, letting him, a country boy, set up a stall? He didn't have the guts and the ability.
Business was about being social skills. This was what his aunt taught him. If people didn't do a good job as a person, then they were looking for trouble when they want to do business.
Hu Zi watched Xu Sheng Qiang's situation today and really wanted to say a few words. However, the other party didn't wish to talk with him, especially when seeing his business was so good and his side had no business.
Lin Qing He raised her eyebrows and spoke, "Is his business not as good as you?"
Xu Sheng Qiang had a temper. He hadn't learned how to be a decent person when he came to the capital. She wasn't optimistic about him setting up a stall like this.
Putting it more seriously, if he offended someone he shouldn't, then he was going to take a fall.
Hu Zi didn’t find it anything to be proud of and said, “I was taught by you and had went to school and opened my eyes. My uncle taught me to be polite when doing business. No one on Sheng Qiang's side taught him. It’s normal if it’s not as good as my side."
"This explanation is wrong. It's not that no one taught him. There are people wanting to teach. The problem is that whether he want to be taught." Lin Qing He responded.
Lin Qing He was pitted by Xu Sheng Mei before, so she never gave Xu Sheng Qiang any good attitude. But her Qing Bai was kind.
He also want to hope for the best for him and even sent him to study. And what did Xu Sheng Qiang do?
She won't mention the old history but the five fingers were still long and short. So if he wasn't promising, there was nothing to say.
It wasn't like they owe him.
After Lin Qing He finished speaking, she reminded Hu Zi: "Doing business is doing business. Don't get involved in the rest. If you want to say a few words, he may not want to listen to you. Just do your own thing, understand?"
"Listen to your aunt." Zhou Qing Bai opened his mouth.
Hu Zi nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Go and set the table." Lin Qing He ordered.
This year, she didn't hold back. The food cost had risen to ten yuan for everyone. Still, ten yuan wasn't really much. One definitely can't eat such a meal when they go out.
A plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of stewed pork belly with potatoes, fried pork slices with pickle veg, and two plates of cabbage. The rest was a pot of seaweed and pork ribs soup.
The staple food was mantou. White flour ones and cornmeal ones.
The corn buns were requested by Lin Qing He. She liked to eat whole grains since her pregnancy started.
Those who came to eat were Second, Third, Gang Zi, and Hu Zi. The others weren't present. Si Ni will get back to work in April. She was still helping with Zhou Er Ni's babies.
"I heard that this is how Uncle's family ate many years ago." During the meal, Gang Zi commented while biting the mantou and eating slices of meat and pickled veg.
"Exaggeration." Lin Qing He laughed.
"That's right. How could there be so many dishes back then." Zhou Gui Lai rolled his eyes.
