Chapter 17 Busy
On a hot summer day, Bao Wufu couldn't help but let out a long breath after watching the customers leave the shop.
Since the store opened, there have been many people coming and going in the store, but the business has been empty. After the customers came in and saw the excitement, they started chatting with Bao Wufu.
On the first day, the second day, and the third day, Bao Wufu didn't feel anything was wrong. It wasn't until she mentioned the business in the shop to An Erzhi that she realized that the large number of people watching the excitement would actually affect the shop.
business here.
When Bao Wufu faced the customers entering the shop again, he observed carefully and felt a chill in his heart. The weather was hot, and after the women who were shopping entered the shop, the men would not enter the shop to avoid suspicion.
Tao Zuozhu and Bao Wufu had imagined how difficult it would be to do business, but they never imagined it would be this difficult.
In the afternoon of this day, Bao Wufu finally watched the customers exit the shop in a lively manner. She sat behind the counter with her head lowered, and she could finally be quiet for a while.
But this afternoon, she still couldn't get this moment of peace. Wen Liu's mother and daughter and the Fu family's fifth aunt's cousin went to the street and went into Bao Wufu's shop to avoid the sun.
Bao Wufu greeted people with a smile on his face. Wen Liuniang asked about the business with concern. Bao Wufu said calmly: "There are many people entering the store, but very few people buying things."
Wen Liu Niang looked at Bao Wufu and sighed: "Of the three brothers, the third is the most kind and honest in dealing with people. You, the three of you sisters-in-law, are also tolerant, generous and honest."
The location of this shop looks very good, but in fact it is too difficult to run a business. Brothers and sisters, please listen to me honestly, you should rent out the shop. I think it is good if you can earn a profit from renting it out."
The cousin of the fifth aunt of the Fu family followed suit and gave Bao Wufu a few words of advice. She also praised Wen Liu Niang for being kind and willing to speak such truth to Bao Wufu.
Bao Wufu looked at the proud look on Wen Liu Niang's face, and then at the proud look in Tao Qingyao's eyes. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep our shop open for a year or two first to let customers know about our shop."
What does it do?"
Wen Liu Niang's face looked a little ugly, and she felt that all her good intentions were in vain. Tao Qingyao looked at Bao Wufu with a red face and whispered: "Little aunt, my mother doesn't persuade people easily. Little aunt is guarding the shop.
I can’t take care of my brothers.”
Bao Wufu looked at her curiously and asked, "Yao'er, why did you and your mother come out of the house at this time?"
Tao Qingyao's face suddenly turned red. She avoided Bao Wufu's gaze and said to Wen Liuniang, "Mom, let's go back."
When Wen Liuniang left the shop, she turned back and said to Bao Wufu: "When you have time, go and take a look at the business of Niuniu's shop. Then you will understand my good intentions."
In the evening, Bao Wufu and Tao Zuozhu told Wen Liuniang's reminder. Tao Zuozhu sneered and said: "My cousin has always been a person who likes to watch the excitement. The more lively our house is, the happier she is in her heart."
Bao Wufu looked at the expression on Tao Zuo's pillar and said with a smile: "I'm not stupid. When we were going to take over our own business, you and your father went to the eldest house. If my cousin-in-law really had a business vision, she wouldn't have done it at that time.
He would be so secretly angry."
The next day, Tao Zuozhu took the opportunity to talk to his two brothers about his store. Tao Zuoliang looked at him and comforted him: "If business was so easy, everyone would go into business.
Our family does not rely on the store business to make a living. Just wait and see for a few more days. If you stop at this moment, we will feel it is a pity and you yourself will not be willing to accept it."
Tao Zuoran looked at him and said slowly: "Don't be in a hurry when doing business. You just have to guard your own shop."
Tao Zuozhu looked at Tao Zuoran for a while, lowered his head and said, "She said she wanted Niuniu to accompany her for a day."
Tao Zuoliang frowned and looked at him: "There are many people coming in and out of your store, and Niuniu is young. If anything goes wrong, can you and your wife handle your second brother, second sister-in-law, and Niuniu?"
Tao Zuoran could tell that Tao Zuozhu was still impatient. If he didn't agree, Tao Zuozhu would feel uncomfortable inside.
"Lao San, Niu Niu is good-looking, which makes customers happy. Your shop is very popular. You also said that there are many women entering the shop. If they see Niu Niu, I'm worried that they will only remember to chat and not remember.
Take a look at what's in your store.
If you and your wife still decide that you want Niu Niu to go to the store, then you go and talk to your mother. If your mother takes Niu Niu with you, the family can feel at ease."
Tao Zuozhu said to Tao Zuoran with a happy face: "Second brother, we just want to take advantage of Niuniu's good oral skills."
When they got up in the morning, An Erzhi dressed Tao Qingbi in a bright red dress and tied two pastel hairbands on her head. She led Tao Qingbi out of the room. Ping Sanshun suddenly understood the second daughter-in-law.
intention.
She secretly gave Tao Zuozhu a warning look, smiled and said to Tao Qingbi, "Niuniu is wearing new clothes today."
Tao Qingbi shook her long sleeves with a joyful expression on her face: "Grandma, my sleeves are too long, but my mother refuses to cut them short."
Ping Sanshun rolled up Tao Qingbi's sleeves and coaxed with a smile: "Niuniu, the sleeves of this kind of clothes cannot be short. If the sleeves are long, you should pay more attention when playing."
Tao Qingbi looked at the expression on Ping Sanshun's face, and when she saw An Erzhi's eyes glaring at her, she immediately calmed down and said, "Okay, Niuniu is the best behaved. She doesn't care about clothes anymore."
Bao Wufu looked at his niece's cheerful dress and An Erzhi's grateful expression, and whispered: "Second sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of mother and Niuniu.
"
An Erzhi looked at the expression on her face, but felt uneasy. It was already time to give her final touch, so she could only remind: "Little brother and sister, Niuniu is still a little playful at a young age. Look at her more.
Don't let her out of the shop."
Bao Wufu smiled and agreed. She and Heping Sanshun could take care of a little person. Besides, Tao Qingbi has always been a good and obedient child.
When the good girl Tao Qingbi followed Ping Sanshun out, she waved to An Erzhi and said, "Mom, you and your brother come quickly."
An Erzhi walked over and smoothed her hair, and said with a smile: "Niuniu, you have to take good care of your grandmother today, do you understand?"
"Yes, I will stay with my grandmother. Mom, my grandmother and I will come to see you and your brother later."
After they left, An Erzhi quickly went into the kitchen to clean things. Sister Ji Ba walked into the kitchen and saw the stove that had been wiped clean. She said to An Erzhi: "Second brother and sister, after this incident, third brother
I and my third brother and sister won’t be embarrassed to bother my mother and Niuniu all the time in the future.”
