Chapter 985: Business (3)
Chen Qingqing’s eyes brightened. “Yes! There’s no room to reduce the price when we set it at forty cents per bowl with such tasty soup and a generous amount of sliced pork. If others want to reduce their prices, they have to cut down on the ingredients. But then the taste will be worse than mine.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “That’s right. It’s getting late now; I’m going to leave with Brother Mo. You can take some time to figure it out. After your brother comes back at night, you can purchase a hand cart, some bowls and chopsticks, foldable chairs and tables. Remember to warm the stove early.
“You can start the business tomorrow morning. Since it will be your first time, I’ll accompany you.”
Gu Qingyao then took out five hundred yuan and passed it to her, “Take this to buy the things that you need.”
Chen Qingqing was shocked and rejected the offer, “No, no, Sister Gu, I can’t take the money. You’re so kind to me. I can’t…”
Gu Qingyao forced the money into her hand, “Don’t be so polite to me since you’re calling me your sister. All right, you can treat it as if I’m lending you the money. Just return it to me after you have made profits.
“You’ve just started your business, and there will be more things to buy. You will definitely spend more money.”
Chen Qingqing looked at the stuff they have purchased and agreed that she would need to purchase more in order to start her stall. Yuan Yuan was still at the hospital. Though Gu Qingyao helped pay all the medical bills, she could not be asking her for money to buy supplements for Yuan Yuan.
Chen Qingqing’s eyes were red. She took the money and said, “Sister Gu, thank you. I will definitely make a lot of money and return it to you!”
Gu Qingyao smiled gently. She rubbed her head and said, “Okay. As long as you’re willing to put in the effort, you will have a good life in the future.
“Qing Qing, the reason why I’m willing to help you is that I can see that both of you are still kind and sincere even after all that you have been through. I’m aware of Yuan Yuan’s situation. I’m a doctor myself, and I can tell that she has been treated well all these years. I’m touched that you still try to earn more money to take her to see doctors even though you are trying so hard to sustain your lives.
“Remember what I say now. No matter how rich you will become in the future, never forget your first dream. Always feel grateful and be kind. Okay?”
Chen Qingqing nodded. She really remembered what Gu Qingyao had said. Those words had influenced her entire life. They did not forget what Gu Qingyao said even after they succeeded in life.
The siblings did not have parents to educate them. They spend most of the time with the children from the Gu family. Chen Qingqing trusted and relied on Gu Qingyao subconsciously. She always listened to what she said.
Gu Qingyao set a time to meet with Chen Qingqing and then left together with Mo Beihan.
The two children were very independent. It was a good thing to be independent for children without parents to rely on. Thus, Gu Qingyao did not prepare everything for them. She left some steps for them to settle on their own.
People could only improve when they thought about how to put in more effort to live and to earn money.
After they returned to the Mo family, they heard noises from where Great-aunt Mo’s family stayed. They then heard Zhou Furong crying and screaming.
Mo Beihan frowned and called upon Steward Zhong, “What’s going on?”
Steward Zhong said, “I’m not sure about the details. Madam Zhou went out shopping in the morning and returned in the afternoon. She cried about being bullied outside. She then cried and complained to Great-aunt and Lady Sun. From what I heard, I think she got bullied by others. She’s saying that she’s the Young Lady of the Mo family and scolded the other party for being so bold to offend her and that the Mo family will ask the person to recompense. She has been crying for a long time.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Mo Beihan: “…”
