To be honest, before Hu Youxun and Tang Ti came together, Qu Zhitao had never thought about taking the postgraduate entrance examination. She now has her own hobby and career to pursue. She can have her leisure time at home, take care of her children, and take care of Liao Jilin.
After Hu Youxun and Tang mentioned it, Qu Zhitao really considered the feasibility of this matter.
After thinking about it, she realized that she seemed unable to go to school.
Liao Weishu has to eat three meals a day at home. After she is admitted to graduate school, she will definitely have to live on campus for a week. In this case, Liao Weishu will have no one to take care of her.
Although Liao Weishu is very smart, she is only a three-year-old child. She has not seen her mother for a week, and Liao Jilin is too busy to take care of her. Thinking about it, Qu Zhitao starts to feel distressed.
She does not want her children to become left-behind children.
So after thinking about it carefully, Qu Zhitao rejected the proposal no matter how tempted he was.
She told Hu Youxuntang what was difficult for her. The main reason was that Liao Weishu couldn't live without people.
When Tang Yi heard that this was the reason, he felt a little regretful, "Previously, the principal always wanted You Xun to lead a graduate student, but he was not happy. A graduate student is different from attending classes, and is equivalent to being a closed disciple. This time he relented and wanted to add you as a graduate student." Go in, but Shushu is indeed too small, so we can only do it later."
Hu Youxun didn't look regretful, but said with a smile: "Even if you can't study as my graduate student, you can still be my student if you want."
Qu Zhitao heard the meaning of his words, and her eyes showed surprise.
"Mr. Hu, are you telling the truth?"
Hu Youxun nodded, his smile still gentle: "Actually, I think we have been friends forever."
Qu Zhitao immediately said: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I am honored to be your student."
Hearing the admiration in her tone, Tang also smiled: "Since you want to be You Xun's student so much, just accept him as your teacher today. His former students have all left in those few years."
Hu Youxun stopped smiling when he heard this and said "hum", with a rare cold look on his face: "What are they doing, they are a bunch of ungrateful people."
Tang: "Liu Bai is still fine."
Hu Youxun nodded: "It's just that my understanding is not good."
Tang looked at him angrily: "You can't have everything go as planned when you take care of your students. People like Zhitao are rare."
Hu Youxun smiled again.
Qu Zhitao didn't understand what happened to the two gentlemen before, so she didn't interrupt and just sat quietly and listened.
Before leaving the Hu family, Qu Zhitao served tea to Hu Youxun under the auspices of Tang and became his first student after the disaster.
Although she worshiped Hu Youxun, Qu Zhitao knew that she also had Tang as a teacher.
During my apprenticeship, a funny thing happened.
Liao Weishu saw her mother kneeling down to serve Hu Youxun tea. She didn't know what it was doing, but she thought it was fun, so she followed suit and knelt down with a cup of tea, facing the soup.
Qu Zhitao and the other three looked at her and were stunned.
When Liao Weishu saw that Grandma Tang didn't take the tea cup, she secretly raised her head and looked at the soup curiously.
Tang couldn't stop laughing for a moment, bent down and pulled Liao Weishu up into his arms, "My dear, what do you think?"
As she said this, she looked at Qu Zhitao and said with a smile: "It's good for you to become my disciple. You can easily get a young apprentice."
Hu Youxun had already received the tea, and Qu Zhitao stood up from the futon and said sheepishly: "She doesn't understand the meaning of this behavior, she just plays along."
"It's okay. Your child should have inherited your talent. It just so happens that I can also write a few words and draw a little, so I won't have nothing to teach you."
Just like that, Liao Weishu has another teacher for everyone.
After leaving Hu's house, Qu Zhitao went to Zhou Zhaodi's shop.
Two years later, Zhou Zhaodi has opened two stores, and her whole temperament has undergone a qualitative change, becoming more cheerful and confident.
Dong Yu has also changed a lot. The little girl's previous sensitivity and introversion have disappeared a lot, but she is still much more mature than her peers.
The main store opened by Zhou Zhaodi is near the train station, and the other store is near the courtyard of several factory families. They are both areas where there are no worries about customers.
Now she is confidently preparing to open a third store.
Qu Zhitao and Liao Weishu went to the main store because Zhou Zhaodi and Dong Yu were usually busy there, and the home she bought in the city was also near the train station.
What's more important is that the Pan Zhen she married lives near the train station, and his influence is also near the train station.
However, because Zhou Zhaodi married him, Qu Zhitao knew some news from above, and asked Zhou Zhaodi to persuade Pan Zhen to be a good man, because the country would continue to crack down on crime and eliminate evil, and Pan Zhen was the first to be taken away. The existence of a warning to monkeys.
Pan Zhen also felt the recent instability. In addition, he felt sorry for Zhou Zhaodi, and he also listened to Zhou Zhaodi's words, and the news came from Qu Zhitao.
He gradually stopped collecting protection fees and started working as a transporter. His brothers joined him in forming a convoy.
As for his territory, if he didn't do it, Slender Monkey would take over.
But his intimidation was still there, Zhou Zhaodi was his wife, and no gangster dared to come and cause trouble.
Now that Zhou Zhaodi has made money, she has hired a few salespeople and will not do everything herself. So I won't be so tired when I'm in the store.
But when I'm busy, I still don't have time to stop.
Dongyu is already in junior high school. She will stay in the store during her Sunday holidays and do her homework first. After finishing her homework, she will help sell things together.
When Qu Zhitao brought Liao Weishu over, it was just after a busy period. Zhou Zhaodi and the salesperson were all sitting, and only one or two were explaining to the customers.
"Aunt Tao! Shu Shu! Mom, Aunt Tao and Shu Shu are here!"
Dongyu was the first to see the two of them and quickly called Zhou Zhaodi.
Zhou Zhaodi immediately turned around and came over with a face of surprise: "Sister, are you in the city again today?"
"Yes, I just have some time, so I'll come over to your store and have a look. How's the business lately?"
While Qu Zhitao was talking to Zhou Zhaodi, Dongyu had already picked up Shushu and played with her with some small toys purchased in the store.
Dongyu was always very patient with Shushu. Every time he took her to play, he treated her like a real sister and was very kind to her. Qu Zhitao always felt at ease when Shushu was with her.
"It's not bad. You know, there is a lot of traffic here, and people who come in will always buy a few items. And I have already bought this store. There is no rent. Except for the cost of clothes and the salary of the clerk, it is a net profit."
It was also an accident when Zhou opened the Dipan store.
The house she had just bought at that time was one that Pan Zhen helped her find. It was a bungalow not far from Pan Zhen's home.
As for the owner of the store, someone in his family was sick and needed money urgently. The store needed to be sold, so he wanted to ask Zhou Zhaodi to find a new house.
When Zhou Zhaodi heard this, she felt that most people would not sell a house with such a good location. She happened to come across one for sale and she didn't want to give up.
Although Pan Zhen was making money, his brother was too loose and didn't save much. After marrying Zhou Zhaodi, he gave the money to Zhou Zhaodi to save some money, but Zhou Zhaodi had used up all the money to buy a house before.
There was no other way, so Zhou Zhaodi wanted to borrow some money from Qu Zhitao, saying that the store she would buy in the future would be half of Qu Zhitao's, and the money she earned every month would also be half of Qu Zhitao's.
Qu Zhitao didn't ask for it, so he lent her the money and she wrote an IOU. By the way, she also bought a shop and rented it out.
At first Zhou Zhaodi didn't agree at all and didn't want to borrow it.
Later, Qu Zhitao asked her to help find some houses in the city. She wanted to buy a few and keep them for Liao Weishu.
Houses are not expensive now, and the money will depreciate if left there. It is better to use it to buy a house. When the house is demolished later, you can buy a new house and share some money.
Even if there is no demolition, if you buy a few houses in the school district, you will still make money in the future.
So now that there are no restrictions on house purchases, she wants to buy more.
Zhou Zhaodi still felt bad. In addition to helping her keep an eye on these things, she also immediately thought of Qu Zhitao and asked Pan Zhen to send them to her for the good things that Pan Zhen brought back from outside.
Qu Zhitao didn't want some of them because they thought they were too valuable, and Zhou Zhaodi might not even have kept them for herself.
But she also knew that she would feel even more regretful if she didn't keep Zhou Zhaodi, so she could only accept it. While accepting it, I will also take some things back.
Zhou Zhaodi took today's running water and wanted to show it to Qu Zhitao. Qu Zhitao smiled and refused: "Why are you showing me this? I don't want to see it."
"Let's see if you make any money."
"I'll be very happy if you make money. It proves that I helped you correctly. How are the preparations for the third store going?"
Qu Zhitao asked Zhou Zhaodi casually.
Zhou Zhaodi told her: "The store has been found. Once the decoration is completed and the store staff is found, it can be opened."
"Whether the store manager is sure it's ready or not, this is the most important thing."
"I know, someone has already been chosen."
Qu Zhitao: "That's fine. Is Pan Zhen still going south? I have something I want him to bring."
Zhou Zhaodi nodded: "Go, he just came back and has decided to go to Guangzhou next time. What do you want him to bring?"
"I'll ask Shaoping to give it to him. It's something fragile. I'm afraid it will break if I send it by express delivery."
"Okay, I'll talk to him."
Qu Zhitao came here today mainly for this matter. After saying that, he felt relieved and talked about some common things with Zhou Zhaodi.
When there were more customers, she helped for a while and then left with Liao Weishu.
Not long after Qu Zhitao left, Pan Zhen entered the store from outside, carrying a wooden lunch box in his hand.
"Mei Zhou, Dongyu! It's time to eat!"
"Why are you here so early today?"
Zhou Zhaodi came over, a little surprised, and wanted to take the lunch box. Pan Zhen didn't give it to her, but took it into the room inside and laid out everything.
"I have nothing to do today. I'll finish cooking early."
"You don't know how to rest at home. Don't you feel tired?"
Pan Zhen chuckled, quickly touched his head and said, "I can't be idle!"
"Wow! There is braised beef today! Uncle Pan, how did you know that my mother wants to eat this? She just told me today."
Zhou Zhaodi glared at her daughter and blushed: "What are you talking about?"
Pan Zhen smiled happily and said in a rich voice: "Is this what the heart knows?"
Dong Yu said from the side: "It makes sense."
"You damn girl!" Zhou Zhaodi blushed even more and raised her hand to hit Dong Yu, but Dong Yu dodged.
Pan Zhen held her back: "Dong Yu is right, eat it quickly, it won't taste good after it gets cold."
"You two act like I'm your stepmother."
