She Lives Well with the Shopping App in the 80s-Chapter 642: Fang Chaoyang Returns from a Business Trip
Chapter 642: Chapter 642: Fang Chaoyang Returns from a Business Trip
Looking back, it seems that being a university professor might be relatively relaxing.
After all, it was his job to make money for his wife to spend.
He didn’t have to worry about not having enough money to spend.
After the meal, Zhang Lanhua took Little Candy and Da Li back home with her.
Er Dan didn’t continue to stay in the Courtyard House, but went to Master Gu’s shop instead.
Fang Meiyun and Zhao Xinxin went to wash the dishes, and Grandma Fang also went back to her room to rest. Suddenly, only Zhao Tianlei and his wife, plus Zhao Tianhe, were left at the dining table.
"Sister-in-law, Third Brother, my girlfriend’s family wants me to visit, and I don’t know what gifts to bring. What should I do?"
Was this about meeting the parents already?
"Isn’t it too fast?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked.
Wang Jianguo and Zhao Xinxin had been dating for such a long time and still hadn’t formally met the parents.
But how long had it been for Zhao Tianhe and Wang Yuemei?
"We can get some coal later and make honeycomb coal," Zhao Tianlei changed the subject.
Aren’t we discussing my visit to the girl’s parents, Third Brother? Why did you switch to talking about honeycomb coal?
We can start heating the kang bed soon, but we haven’t started heating it yet.
"Why, you don’t want to?"
Zhao Tianhe quickly nodded, "Of course, I want to."
How could he dare say he didn’t want to?
He was there to discuss this matter with his brother and sister-in-law.
"Does Wang Yuemei’s sister know about you being Wang Yuemei’s boyfriend?"
Zhao Tianhe was at a loss for words, "I don’t know, but we’ll have to meet sooner or later. It can’t be avoided."
"When you formally visit, take a piece of meat, a pack of peach cakes, and buy some fruits. They know your situation, so to avoid any excessive demands when discussing the bride price, you must insist that you’ve borrowed money for buying a house."
Zhao Tianhe nodded in agreement, "Sister-in-law, I understand."
In the afternoon, the cousins went to get a lot of coal and made a good amount of honeycomb coal.
In the Capital City, many people made their own honeycomb coal.
Yun Xiaoxiao predicted that the electrical appliance store would do well. Zhang Lanhua and the others were really busy to the point of carrying Little Candy on their back, introducing her to everyone.
The appliance store had hired a new salesperson and a delivery person, which immediately made life much easier for Zhao Tianhe and Da Li.
Zhao Tianhe also freed up space for a dedicated after-sales service area.
He had studied repairs at night school.
Fang Chaoyang, who had been on a business trip for half a month, finally returned.
He looked considerably thinner.
"Xiao Yang, you worked hard. Take a couple of days off to rest properly," Zhao Tianlei patted Fang Chaoyang on the shoulder, understanding that rest wasn’t easy to come by in Shanghai.
"We bought the store, thankfully we have the clothing store, we have cash flow. Otherwise, it would have been really difficult to acquire those shops at once given their excellent location. We could only buy them by paying in full, and it’s under the sister-in-law’s name."
Before leaving, Third Brother and sister-in-law had instructed to buy the storefront if possible to avoid the landlord opting out of the lease once they saw the business doing well.
"Mission accomplished."
"Let Grandma Fang nourish you well. On your days off, spend some quality time with Grandma Fang. She might not say much, but she’s still quite concerned about you."
Fang Chaoyang understood.
Previously, being in the Capital City meant he could go home every day. But now that he had to travel far, even he was a bit uncomfortable with it.
How much more so for an elderly person?
"Sure."
Now that the storefront had been purchased and even refurbished, the next step was to find a manager to run the operation there, along with hiring and other miscellaneous duties, all to be overseen by her.
