This was because she knew that her mother had always been soft-hearted. Even if she didn’t understand these things, she would probably agree to it to help Auntie Hu.
As expected, Li Xu and Zhang Kun talked in the room that night. They talked until late.
The soundproofing in this house was not that good, and with Ji Yuanyuan’s sharp ears, she could faintly hear the conversation in the next room, even when she was lying in bed.
At noon the next day, after lunch, Li Xu handed the store over to Zhang Kun and said, “You just wait. I’ll go to Chunli’s place and discuss it with her.”
She was afraid that Zhang Kun couldn’t control the three children, so she reached out and waved at Ji Yuanyuan. “Yuanyuan, come here. I’ll take you to play with Jingyi for a while.”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward. Li Xu carried her to the bicycle seat and left with her.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were boys, so Li Xu did not put too much effort into it and let Zhang Kun take care of them.
The two shops weren’t far from each other, and it only took a few minutes to get there by bicycle.
There were not many customers in the shop at around 1 pm.
Li Xu got out of the car and carried Ji Yuanyuan out of the car. She instructed her, “Later when Mom and Auntie Hu have a talk, you and Jingyi shouldn’t run around, okay?”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded her head vigorously. “I know, Mom!”
When she entered the store, she realized that Jingyi wasn’t there. Hu Chunli was standing with a man and talking.
She didn’t know what they were talking about, but their expression didn’t look good.
When she saw Li Xu walking over, Hu Chunli quickly took a step back.
“I’ve said everything 1 need to say,” she said to the man. “You can go first. I’ve got a guest here!”
The man forced a smile and hummed in acknowledgment before quickly leaving.
Upon seeing this, Li Xu had some guesses in her heart.
After she entered, she covered Ji Yuanyuan’s ears and asked Hu Chunli in a low voice, “That man just now…”
She had seen this person when she came yesterday.
That simple and honest man’s ears would turn red when he looked at Hu Chunli.
Hu Chunli knew what Li Xu meant. “Yes, I live in this community. He had two children, and his wife had passed away from cervical cancer a few years ago. He’s the one who cooks for them and often comes to buy groceries. After a while, he also knows that I’m divorced. However, I rejected him!”
Although she had covered her ears, Ji Yuanyuan heard the conversation between the two clearly.
She raised her head and looked at Hu Chunli curiously.
Hu Chunli’s expression was very calm as if she didn’t feel regretful or proud at all for rejecting a man.
“Yes, his appearance doesn’t really match yours.” Li Xu said casually.
The man was not tall and not good-looking. It was indeed not up to par with Hu Chunli.
Ji Yuanyuan secretly thought to herself. Luckily, Auntie Hu rejected him. Otherwise, I’m afraid she’ll be in deep trouble:
She had seen a saying on the internet before. If a man’s partner had cervical cancer, there was a high chance that his future partner would also have cervical cancer.
This was because the cervical cancer virus was usually carried by men.
When Hu Chunli heard Li Xu’s words, she laughed bitterly. “Not that. I don’t have any plans to remarry now. How many people can be like Brother Zhang? Not everyone is as lucky as you. If 1 remarry, Jingyi will inevitably suffer. Besides, the two children in his family were not young anymore. If we really got together, how would I have time to work? Wouldn’t I become a charwoman without a salary? Don’t even talk about making money. I’ll have to spend all the money I’ve worked so hard to earn.”
Hu Chunli was quite open-minded. “So, no matter how good the conditions are, I won’t remarry. I just want to make money now. The more the better. When Jingyi grows up and marries, I might consider finding a partner. Take care of each other so 1 won’t drag Jingyi down.”
Li Xu laughed when she heard that. “Don’t think that it’s still too early. It’ll be more or less the same in a dozen years. Sometimes, a dozen years is just like the blink of an eye.”
More than ten years ago, Ji Zixuan was born.
Sometimes, when she thought about it, she felt that time had passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the children had all grown up.
Hu Chunli chuckled and did not say anything.
Li Xu let go of Ji Yuanyuan’s ears and told Hu Chunli about the store.
“Regarding the matter you mentioned, I discussed it with your Big Brother Zhang last night. We both think that your suggestion is good.”
Hearing this, Hu Chunli’s expression was a little surprised. “So you’re saying that you agree?”
Li Xu nodded. “He agreed. Your Big Brother Zhang also said that with your ability, it’s really too much for you to be a shop assistant. You’re a college student and capable. You have further visions than us. If you join us, our store will definitely get better and better.”
“What college student….” Hu Chunli was a little embarrassed.
“To a certain extent, a person’s education level shows their ability, learning ability, adaptability, stress resistance, and so on. 1 envy people like you who study well.”
Hu Chunli laughed in embarrassment. “What ability? I’m just relying on my family’s better conditions. You might be a college student if your family was richer back then.”
Back then, her family had a bit of money, so her family insisted on supporting her through college.
Unfortunately, the few years of studying did not help her avoid any detours.
Hu Chunli sighed and said, “In that case, Sister, you can go to the bank and open an account on Monday. It’ll be considered a common account for us. When I withdraw the money, I’ll deposit it in this common account. In the future, if 1 need money, 1’11 withdraw it from this account.”
“Sure, I’ll get it done on Monday!” Li Xu nodded.
“Also, you need to recruit two people and put them in the shop for training. By the time they’re completely familiar with it, our new shop should be almost ready. By then, they can start working directly!”
“All right, I’ll go and get a few recruitment notices in the afternoon. 1’11 put them up on the wall outside and the store entrance!
The two of them discussed for a long time before Li Xu left with Ji Yuanyuan.
The first thing Li Xu did when she returned to the shop was to go home and find the white paper she had bought.
She drafted a recruitment notice and gave it to Ji Zixuan after editing it. “Good son, follow this template and give Mom a few hand-written copies.”
The printing place was far away, and the price was high.
Li Xu thought that since these children had nothing to do, they might as well save a few cents for the family.
At the same time, he could also practice his writing.
Ji Zixuan only took an hour to copy more than twenty copies for her.
Li Xu returned home and boiled some paste.
Ji Zixuan carried the paste, Ji Zi’ang held the recruitment notice, and Li Xu held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. The four of them went out to put up small advertisements.
The children were all very happy. After more than twenty copies had been pasted, they still had some left..
