Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 32.3: The Prodigal Son (64)
Shao Yu smiled and said, “They don’t want betrothal gifts, but can you really not give them?”
Shao Dabao touched the back of his head, looked at his future father-in-law, and said, “Uncle Lu, I have saved five taels of silver for a year, and I will give it all to you.”
“What do I need your money for? I don’t need your stinky money!” Although Dr. Lu knew that the gangster in front of him was really improving, he thought that the cabbage he had raised for so many years would be taken away. He was still very impatient to see Shao Dabao’s eyes.
“Uncle Lu…” Shao Dabao was at a loss for a while.
Shao Yu winked at him.
Shao Dabao immediately changed his words and said, “It’s useless for me to ask for money as a man. I want to give sister Yun’er some pocket money. Although it is not much, I will work hard.”
At this time, Shao Dabao was thinking more and more about going to the countryside to sell goods when the New Year begins. Although the road there is far away, the goods are easier to sell because of the congested traffic. One trip can be worth several trips in the city.
Now that he is about to marry a wife, Shao Dabao only feels that he has unlimited motivation in his heart.
When Dr. Lu heard him talking like this, he took the money and said, “I don’t want your money. These, Yun’er will take it back when she gets married.”
The money that Shao Dabao had saved for so long was taken by his father-in-law. Instead, he smiled and said, “You don’t have to bring it back, it’s better for sister Yuner to spend it, as long as she is happy. ”
Doctor Lu glared at him.
Lu Yun’er inside felt sweet after hearing this, and became more and more confident about the future.
The life-long event was decided like this. She was someone that Shao Dabao never dared to think about before. He was still quite dizzy when he came home. If it weren’t for Shao Yu holding him along the way, he wouldn’t have known that he had bumped into a tree. several times.
After returning home, Shao Yu grabbed him again and asked, “Now that you are no longer alone, you have to support your family. What are your plans for the future?”
“I plan to go to the countryside to sell goods at the beginning of the new year.” Shao Dabao elaborated on his plan.
After hearing this, Shao Yu asked him what specific goods he planned to bring to the countryside. After hearing Shao Dabao’s thoughts, he fell silent.
“What’s wrong?” Shao Dabao asked.
He used to suspect that his father’s money came from improper sources, but now that he has been a salesman for so long, he understands the business model of Shao Yu’s grocery store.
Shao Yu always seems to have the ability to get a large amount of cheap goods and then sell them to other shops. Shao Yu’s grocery store actually has a heavier wholesale business than retail. It is precisely because of this that even if there are no customers in the shop, Shao Yu can bring huge profits as long as he makes a few transactions every day.
Shao Dabao naturally recognized his father’s earning ability, so he asked this question at this time.
Shao Yu said: “Don’t always think about what you can get from others, but think more about what you can do for others.”
After hearing this, Shao Dabao didn’t understand much and wanted to ask in detail, but Shao Yu didn’t say more.
In a blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival. Shao Dabao ordered a lot of head flowers in Shao Yu’s grocery store in advance. Many women who did not travel in the past went out during the Lantern Festival, so Shao Dabao felt that selling head flowers during the Lantern Festival would definitely make a good fortune.
Before selling the goods, he first picked ten flowers from the middle and rushed to Lu’s house.
Although the marriage between the two was settled, Dr. Lu still didn’t look good at all when he saw Shao Dabao.
“Uncle Lu, today is the Lantern Festival, can sister Yun’er go out to play?” Shao Dabao asked earnestly.
Lu Yun’er stayed in the back room and was about to speak out, but Doctor Lu had already said directly: “No time, she still has to study.”
After saying that, he closed the door directly and locked Shao Dabao outside.
Although Dr. Lu has accepted the fact that he is going to marry his daughter out, he still feels displeased with Shao Dabao.
But when he turned around, he saw his daughter looking at him curiously.
“Daddy? When am I going to study?” Lu Yuner asked.
When Dr. Lu heard this, he was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared, and said: “As a girl, can’t you be more reserved? You will rush to other people’s houses as soon as they come.”
But such kind-hearted persuasion was of no use to Lu Yun’er. She only said: “If you like it, you just like it. If you don’t like it, you don’t like it. The marriage has been decided, so what else is there to show off?”
The more she behaves like this, the more worried Dr. Lu becomes and the more he wants to stop her.
“That’s how men are, the harder it is to get something, the more they will cherish it.” Dr. Lu said sincerely.
Lu Yun’er said: “Brother Dabao is not such a person.”
Seeing that his daughter still wanted to go out, Dr. Lu added, “Did’t you always want to study medicine? I’ll teach you.”
With that said, Dr. Lu took out a medical book and he was about to explain it.
Lu Yun’er took the book directly and said, “I understand somethings in front of it, but I don’t understand a few parts.”
Doctor Lu looked at his daughter who was very familiar with the book, and couldn’t help asking, “Have you read it all?”
Lu Yun’er blinked her eyes and said, “I’ve finished reading, but there are still many things I don’t understand.”
