"You can make other clothes even if you don't wear silk.”
Chen Xueru replied.
After a while, the coffee arrived. Li Wuwei took a sip and frowned. It was too bitter.
After chatting for a while, the tailor arrived. It was a middle-aged woman and she brought Qin Huairu to the inner room to take size. As she was wearing a cotton-padded jacket, the measurements were not accurate.
Li Wuwei seized the opportunity to ask," Lady Boss, your shop is really big. Do you have a backyard?"”
"No, the backyard belongs to someone else. It would be great if I could turn it into a tailor shop and make clothes there.”
Chen Xueru picked up the teacup and tasted it elegantly.
"Then why don't you just buy the backyard?”
Li Wuwei probed, wanting to know what was going on in the backyard.
Chen Xueru shook her head and said," I don't know who's living in the backyard. I've looked for him a few times but I couldn't find him. I heard that he's a middle-aged man who's very mysterious."
Who knows, she might be doing something illegal. I'm just a little woman, so I don't dare to talk about it.”
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm bold. I'll accompany you next time.”
Li Wuwei volunteered, feeling that the credit was right in front of him.
"Why are you accompanying me?"
Chen Xueru wondered if he really liked her. Li Wuwei already had a wife.
"I want to learn your business model. Maybe I'll open my own shop one day.”
Li Wuwei found a very good excuse. He disdained working to earn money, but if he could make a lot of money, he would not miss it.
"Aiyo, I thought you really planned to collect rent for the rest of your life. It seems that you are also ambitious.”
Chen Xueru realized that she had made a mistake last time.
Li Wuwei shook his head and said," It's not worth it for me to make a small amount of money. It's not worth it for me to work as a worker."”
"Oh, so you still have talent.”
Chen Xueru's words were a joke. Wasn't she too ambitious?
Li Wuwei didn't explain and said,""Next time I come to pick up the clothes, I'll go with you to the backyard to take a look.”
"Alright, then it's a deal."
Chen Xueru was emboldened by the sight of a tall person.
After a while, Qin Huairu came out. The tailor praised her for being a clothes rack.
"Lady Boss, I'll come to pick up the clothes in a few days.”
Li Wuwei saw that it was time to eat and should leave. Otherwise, it would be bad if he stayed and let others treat him. It would also delay his business.
"Alright!"
Chen Xueru sent her to the door and even gave Qin Huairu a scarf.
After Li Wuwei carried Qin Huiru far away, Qin Huiru could not help but say,""Brother Li, you seem to be quite close to Sister Xueru.”
"I'm not familiar with her. She runs a business and gets along well with everyone.”
Li Wuwei thought to himself that he was still too shallow to test him.
"Oh, is she married?"
Qin Huairu did not bother asking so obviously.
"She has a boyfriend and is currently in a relationship. Why are you asking about this? We're just going to buy clothes and don't care about these gossips.”
Li Wuwei answered with a single sentence.
Qin Huairu felt slightly relieved after hearing that.
After that, Li Wuwei found a small restaurant. He didn't spend much and only ordered two dishes and a few white noodles. He didn't even drink any wine. It was considered a simple meal.
However, Qin Huairu still ate happily. This restaurant was not good.
"Let's go to our shop and take a look. Just treat them as ordinary customers.”
Li Wuwei wanted to see how his old shop was doing and how business was.
Speaking of which, Dongzhimen was not a suitable place to open a shop, but it was different here. Qianmen Street was outside Zhengyang Gate, the main gate of the capital.
In addition, it was close to the train station, and there were many customers from other places. This could drive consumption, and there were also many rich people.
"Alright, alright!"
Qin Huairu felt emboldened when she thought of her own shop.
When they arrived, Li Wuwei saw the shop's signboard. Although it was also called Preserved Fruit Shop, it didn't have his grandfather's signboard. Otherwise, he would have gone to make a scene.
The three shops were connected after being connected. The area was very large, or else they wouldn't have been able to pay such a high rent.
However, the business in the shop was not good. It was the weekend today, so there had to be a lot of preserved fruits and candies.
"Choose what you want to buy."
A shop assistant stood behind the counter and greeted him. Then, there was no more then. This service awareness was not good.
"Is your shop an old shop?”
According to his memory, Li Wuwei looked at the items on sale and felt that they were not good.
"It's not a time-honored brand. It's a street branch.”
The salesperson really knew how to tell the truth and did not lie.
"Then I have to buy some to try."
Li Wuwei immediately chose a few main items, such as dried apricot, begonia, candied fruit, dried red, and so on. He bought some of them.
"Big Brother Li, this is so expensive."
Qin Huairu calculated that she had spent quite a bit today.
"Huairu, let me tell you, Grandpa passed me the secret recipe for preserved fruits, as well as the store's main products, sour plum soup, autumn pear cream, and so on.
"I have to try out the difference between this shop and ours. If it's suitable for business in the future, Grandpa will keep this shop and we'll have to open it.”
Li Wuwei didn't mind telling the truth. Qin Huiru would only be loyal to him if he painted a bigger picture.
"Ah! Grandpa is so good to you!"
Qin Huairu was shocked. So there was such an inside story. That was a hundred-year-old recipe that had been passed down. It must be extremely valuable.
"That's right. Cough cough. The main thing is that he only has me as his grandson.”
Li Wuwei immediately picked up a crabapple. The color was not right, and it did not feel crystal clear. When he ate it, the taste was also not right. It was far from what he remembered.
"It's really delicious!"
Qin Huairu couldn't tell that she had eaten too little fine grain.
"How can this be considered delicious? It's far worse than what my grandfather used to sell. This shop's business won't be good.”
Li Wuwei was suddenly a little worried that he could still collect rent for a few more months.
In the afternoon, Qin Huairu wanted to return to the courtyard to tidy up the house, so the two of them went back.
In the courtyard, Li Wuwei asked his wife to return to the house first. He asked Yan Bugui about raising flowers and plants so that he could dress up his house.
"Li Wuwei, then Jia Dongxu will be getting married to his new boyfriend tomorrow. Did he treat your family to a banquet next weekend?”
Yan Bugui mentioned this matter when he saw him.
Li Wuwei was stunned for a moment before he said,"We're getting married tomorrow?" Jia Dongxu went to visit today?"
"What do you mean by visiting? After lunch, the girl left with the matchmaker. She said that she would bring a recommendation letter tomorrow and get married to Jia Dongxu.”
Yan Bugui pushed up his glasses. In terms of scheming, he felt that only Li Wuwei could be on equal footing with him. Since the others had already schemed for a daughter-in-law, they should be able to see through it.
"What do I think? Isn't this buying cats from across the mountain?"
Li Wuwei spoke bluntly. This daughter-in-law of the Jia family really had some problems.
