Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 55.1: The Bitter Heroine (63)
The next day after the mother and daughter left the western restaurant, the restaurant sent someone to deliver a full month’s salary.
After asking carefully, they found out that it was the instructions given by Third Master Bai before he left.
After taking the money, Shao Yingniang and Liu Cuifen couldn’t help but look at Shao Yu.
Shao Yu smiled and said, “Since he wants to give it to you, just keep it.”
Liu Cuifen was just as she boasted. She had already made a name for herself in Yunxi Road, so she left the Western restaurant and soon found another job.
She can now communicate in basic spoken English, so this time, she found a job in another western restaurant. Upon closer inspection, she found that the quality of this restaurant was even higher than the previous one.
However, Shao Yingniang refused the proposal to continue working with her mother. She wanted to work in the pharmaceutical factory for a while, but was rejected by Shao Yu.
“I know you have some ideas in your mind, but you haven’t thought them through yet. You have money on you, so you should think about it carefully at home during this period of time. Once you have thought it through, you can decide what to do next.” Shao Yu said.
Shao Yingniang was absent-minded occasionally, and Shao Yu could see some of her thoughts, but he also understood that although his daughter had changed a lot, she still couldn’t make up her mind when faced with important decisions.
What Shao Yu needs to do now is to give her enough time to think clearly.
Shao Yingniang quit her job at the western restaurant and stayed idle at home for a while, but no one heard any talk in the alley. After all, everyone in the alley was very busy now and had no time to pay attention to other people’s affairs.
Every day, watching the neighbors in the alley busying about, Shao Yingniang would rarely calm down.
Shao Yingniang had been idle for only five days when she suddenly felt uncomfortable.
It is difficult for people who are used to working to get used to such a relaxed life. She once again told Shao Yu that she wanted to find a job.
But Shao Yu still maintained his original idea: “What kind of job are you looking for, and what kind of reward do you want from this job?”
Shao Yingniang was slightly stunned.
“You’re not really short of money now, right?” Shao Yu asked again.
Shao Yingniang still had the money from her ex-husband’s family, so her private wealth should actually be the thickest among the Shao family members.
“But the money cannot be touched. It must be left to the three children,” Shao Yingniang said in a low voice.
“Is this money given to the child by the Wang family? Did they say so?” Shao Yu asked back.
Shao Yingniang was stunned.
Shao Yu continued, “You have suffered so much in the Wang family. I helped you get this money. You can decide how to use it.”
“But…but I still have three children…” Shao Yingniang said.
“I help you take care of the child and let you go out to work so that you can have your own life. I hope you won’t be kidnapped by the child forever.” Shao Yu said.
Shao Yingniang was completely stunned. It seemed that only now did she understand Shao Yu’s good intentions.
She used to think that Shao Yu felt that work was too tiring, so he was willing to stay at home to take care of the children. Now, she felt that her thoughts were too shallow, and that she was so timid that she really let Shao Yu down.
“You didn’t even dare to go out and talk to people at the beginning, but now you can pick up a chair and hit people. You are very brave, but you can be even braver.” Shao Yu said gently.
“Think about your children. Don’t you want to be a good role model for them?”
Shao Yingniang finally stopped hesitating and clenched her fists and said to Shao Yu: “I want to start my own factory and be the boss.”
“Have you thought it through?” Shao Yu asked again.
Shao Yingniang nodded vigorously. She had this idea in her mind but never dared to say it out loud.
She was afraid that if she said it out loud, others would think she was dreaming. She said it out loud now, of course, because she was encouraged by Shao Yu, but more importantly, she hoped to set a good example for her daughters.
“Do you have any ideas?” Shao Yu asked again.
Shao Yingniang’s idea did not come out of thin air. She said: “I read in the newspaper that the Chengxi Weaving Factory imported a batch of new looms from the port city, and the output has increased significantly, so I also want to invest money to buy advanced machines and build a factory.”
Shao Yu asked again: “Why the weaving industry?”
Shao Yingniang thought for a moment and said, “I know something about this industry.”
Shao Yu only thought about it for a moment and understood where her understanding came from.
The Wang family started out as a cloth-making family. Even though Shao Yingniang had a humble status in the Wang family, she passively accepted a lot of information about the weaving industry.
“So what are your plans now? Go directly to Hong Kong City to buy the machine?” Shao Yu asked.
Shao Yingniang shook her head and said, “I want to see this loom in person first. If it is feasible, I will go to Hong Kong city to purchase the goods.
Shao Yu asked a few more questions, and seeing that she knew what was going on, he felt relieved.
That evening, Shao Yingniang saw Guan Yang from next door coming home from work, and immediately knocked on the door with a plate of cakes.
