Chapter 318 It’s hard to calm down
Lin Shu asked about Su Aiguo's family situation and learned that his great uncle no longer coveted his ancestral home. Now there were several rooms in the ancestral home. His parents lived in one, he and his wife lived in one, and the remaining four were rented to Lin Shu and his family.
"Ms. Lin, you rented five rooms before, but later you took back one because I got married. Why didn't you stay at home when you came to Yangcheng this time? Did you stay in a hotel outside?"
When Su Aiguo saw Lin Shu, he thought that Lin Shu did not live at home, and thought that they disliked the limited conditions at home and went to stay in a hotel.
"This time, we were picked up by a friend and taken to his home right after we left the station, so we didn't get to see you."
"Well... since you have a place to live, do you still need to rent the house at home?" Su Aiguo looked a little conflicted. The main reason was that the rent that Lin Shu paid to him was paid annually, and he had already used this year's rent.
Getting married and having children requires money for everything. His parents are old and his wife is pregnant and has given birth, so he really doesn't have much spare money.
If Lin Shu wanted to cancel the lease, he would have to return the rent he had paid previously, or pay more. At the moment, he really couldn't afford to return the money to them.
Lin Shu shook his head: "Your room has already been rented, so just keep it. It will be convenient for people from our factory to come to Yangcheng on business trips. It's more convenient to stay at your place than in a guesthouse."
Su Aiguo felt relieved after hearing this. Let's do it this way for this year. As for next year, we'll talk about it next year.
Zhang Yong and Lin Mei left the villa area and first found a guesthouse to stay in. In order to save money, they put down their luggage and turned around and went to the wholesale market without stopping.
Although they have familiar stores in the wholesale market, Zhang Yong and Lin Mei will always walk around the wholesale market every time they come here to learn about the popular trends here, so as to avoid being caught in the dark and being cheated by the bosses, and the goods they buy wholesale are not the latest models.
In the huge wholesale market, you have to walk around, select and confirm the styles, count the quantities, and then pack them. Each of these tasks is very physically demanding and time-consuming.
By the time they packed the goods and asked someone to transport them out on a tricycle, the market was almost closing.
The two of them came here by train today. They didn't sleep well on the train last night, and they didn't have a rest for another day after entering the wholesale market. They were so busy that they didn't even have time to eat lunch.
Following the tricycle out of the market, the couple were starving, but in order to transport the goods back to the guesthouse first, they had to endure the hunger and hold on.
Lin Mei rubbed her belly with one hand and held the tricycle with the other hand to keep up with the speed of the tricycle. After a whole day of riding, the soles of her feet were almost covered with blisters.
"If you ask me, why stay in a guesthouse? The goods have been delivered. Let's have a tricycle transport them to the train station. We can take the evening train back directly. How much easier is that?"
For a small business, the first thing to do in every step is to think about saving costs.
If you stay here for one night, you have to pay for food and accommodation, and you have to pay extra for the tricycle freight.
She can be a little extravagant at home, but when she is outside, Lin Mei is accustomed to saving money.
"You didn't get enough rest last night, and you're not willing to get a room to rest for one more night. I'm afraid you have masochistic tendencies."
Zhang Yong looked back at her and said with a smile, "Okay, don't worry about what has been decided. Carry these goods back to the guesthouse later and I'll take you to eat seafood. I've heard that the seafood stall by the river tastes good and the price is cheap. You know, it's not cheap to eat seafood in the provincial capital."
While waiting for the traffic light with the tricycle, Lin Mei noticed a familiar car turning right from the right-hand lane to the opposite lane. "Yongzi, is that the car we saw this morning?"
Zhang Yong also noticed the black car at this time. It was the same model. He looked at the license plate and said, "It was the car that picked up Lin Shu and the others this morning. Where are they going when they pass by here at this time?"
As the two were talking, the green light came on. After following the tricycle across the intersection, the black car disappeared.
"Damn, the one who burns oil is really awesome. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. That's really fast." Zhang Yong's eyes were full of envy.
"It's not a plane. It's not as magical as you say. They are over there." Lin Mei gestured to the front yard of the seafood restaurant not far away.
The black car was parked in the parking lot in front of the restaurant.
The magnificent restaurant in front of him made Zhang Yong face the gap between the rich and the poor, and he realized more deeply the gap between them and Gu Jiu and others. Some of them were born in Rome, while he had to rush for three meals a day since he was a child.
"This is one of the best seafood restaurants in Guangzhou. The prices are high. We work hard on our tricycles for a month, but the money we spend on a meal there may not be enough. Last time I heard someone say that a large lobster costs hundreds of yuan. Was that your friend sitting in the car just now?"
The tricycle driver was really curious. He knew such a rich friend. What would it be like to follow him in for a meal?
If it were him, he would feel so sad just thinking about spending all the money he earned in a month on it.
"know."
Zhang Yong didn't say much as he was not familiar with the tricycle driver.
Lin Mei felt even worse. A large lobster cost more than a hundred yuan. Could it make one immortal or something? Even dragon liver and phoenix gallbladder were not as expensive as this one?
After loading the goods back to the guesthouse and carrying them into the room, Zhang Yong was sweating profusely. It was not until he sat down at the seafood stall by the river that he felt a little cooler.
Lin Mei looked at the menu that the waiter had ordered and laughed at herself: "Look, this is the gap. I always liked to compare myself with her before, but now I know that the price of a seafood meal for us is not as much as the price of a lobster for them."
Zhang Yong took a sip of tea, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "So I asked you to ease the relationship with her. It's better to make money with them than to grope around and get hurt. Following them is easy, but why can't you figure it out? Why do you have to endure the hardship?"
Lin Mei turned her head to look at the river and said it lightly, asking her to beg for food, which she couldn't do.
Lin Shu has been loved by her brothers and sisters since she was a child. Most of the housework at home is done by her brothers and sisters, so it is not her turn to do it.
Since she was a child, she had endless housework to do, and when she grew up, she had endless farm work to do.
When Lin Shu reached school age, she could have gone up to higher school as long as she wanted. However, she only went to the first grade of primary school because her parents would not allow her to continue. They said that a girl only needed to be able to write her own name, and that it was useless to go to school because in the end she would still have to return to her family, take care of her husband and children, and honor her parents and in-laws.
When Lin Shu was bullied in the village, she had her brothers and sisters to support her, but she had to bear it all on her own.
It is said that a woman’s marriage is her second reincarnation.
She wanted to change her fate by getting married, but Lin Shu's arranged marriage was envied by everyone. Compared with the men she fell in love with, He Chunlei, they were all inferior.
After all the effort and planning, the marriage he managed to get was not satisfactory.
But Lin Shu turned around and found a man with a better family background and talent. How could she not be jealous?
Lin Mei was even more upset about Zhang Yong's request.
