Chapter 156
In order to ease grandma's heart, Ning Qiu told some interesting stories about the school, including his friends, and of course Yun Yuanchu who succeeded in losing weight. Grandma covered her mouth and laughed happily.

"Grandma, there is something else I want to tell you. When I went to high school, you gave me a sum of money, remember, I used that money to open a store."

Zhu Ximei was very surprised, "Open a shop? Where do you have time to open a shop? Don't you have to study?"

"I hired someone to help look after the store, so I went to have a look on Sunday. Ms. Xu is a nice person, but the family is very difficult, and she took care of this child. By the way, you still remember the young technician from Yimin Food Factory, Xiao Xu ?"

"Of course I remember. At that time, he and his master came to our house to learn crafts."

"Yes, it's him, then sister Xu is his own sister."

"Such a coincidence? This is really fate."

"Well, grandma, a small shop can make money, so you don't have to worry about the workshop at home. Even if you can't do it at home, at worst, go to Luoyang with me."

Zhu Ximei shook her head, "Oh, I've been in the village all my life, and I'm not willing to leave here. Besides, I'm not used to going to the city."

"It's okay if you don't go, let's find a way to make a living in the county. Don't worry, grandma, there will always be a way."

Seeing that grandma's complexion was much better than before, Ning Qiu asked cautiously. "Grandma, how much did we fine this time?"

Zhu Ximei knew that Ning Qiu was sensible and capable, and she was the one who set up the workshop at home, so she didn't hide it now.

"It's a full two thousand, our family's annual income."

After hearing this, Ning Qiu found a certificate of deposit from her schoolbag and stuffed it to Zhu Ximei, "Grandma, this is the income of the store, you take it first."

Zhu Ximei didn't even look at it, so she stuffed it back to Ning Qiu. "How can this be done? You earned it. Grandma, how can I take your money!"

"There's nothing wrong with it. You are my grandma. It's only natural for me to respect you. If you don't take my grandma, you just don't treat me as a granddaughter."

Ning Qiu is short of money, but comforting grandma is more important than anything else.

When Ning Qiu said that, Zhu Ximei couldn't evade it anymore.

She was startled again when she saw the amount on the deposit certificate, "Is this [-] earned by the store?"

"The business in the store is doing well, and this is only part of it."

In the evening, Ning Hongfu and Ning Cheng saw that Ning Qiu had returned home. The father and son swept away the unhappiness of the previous period and showed rare smiles.

As soon as the two came back, Zhu Ximei couldn't wait to tell them about Ning Qiu's opening of a shop in Luoyang, and the father and son were even more pleasantly surprised.

"Zan Qiu is too capable! You can open a store and make money while studying!" Ning Cheng praised without hesitation, "Much better than my children!"

Ning Qiu really wanted to ask his uncle about the workshop, but it was inconvenient for grandma to be there, so he had to wait until night for grandma to wash and go to bed.

In July, it is very pleasant to sit in the small courtyard at night to enjoy the cool air.

Ning Qiu glanced at the door of grandma's house, and then asked. "Uncle, what happened to our workshop?"

Ning Cheng said with a serious expression, "At the end of April, Ma Hongmao came to my house and said what I said. He said that when he was selling goods in the county, he was asked where the goods he sold came from. At that time, he didn't think much about it. They said that they were made by the village themselves. A few days later, a group of people who said they were from the health inspection station came to the village head with the snacks made by our family. After knowing that they were made by my family, they said they would come to my house to check the sanitation situation. .”

"Then what happened?"

Ning Cheng smiled wryly, "What else can I do? Just say that our house is too dirty and does not meet the standards for food production. I don't understand. Don't every household in the village clean up and eat like this? The beans were washed by mother herself. Yes, the flour was kneaded by my daughter-in-law, so why is it unqualified? The village chief told them, but they didn’t listen, saying that they had to follow the rules, and then our workshop had to stop.”

"Then what happened to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau? There are still fines?"

"The workshop stopped for about ten days, and another group of people in uniform came to the village head and asked about the situation of my workshop. The village head didn't know what those people were thinking, so he told the truth when he saw that it was someone from the government. Those people learned that we started this business a few years ago, and asked us if we had a license. At that time, how did we know that we needed a license for this small business, and they said we were tax evasion and we had to pay a fine , If you don’t pay, you will have to go to jail. At that time, I frightened my parents, what else can I say, of course I will pay the fine immediately.”

"How did those people find our village?" Ning Qiu asked.

"The village chief inquired about this. He said... a food store opened in the town after the year. Many of the food sold in the store are almost exactly the same as those sold in our workshop. But the food sold in that store is more expensive than ours. , Business is not good. The village chief said that the person who sued our family is the person in that shop.”

"How did the village chief find out about this?"

"There is a relative in his family who does odd jobs in the industrial and commercial office. That person told him about it."

Ning Qiu frowned and asked again, "Which store is state-run?"

"This...the village chief didn't say anything."

Ning Qiu thought for a while, "I'll go to the town tomorrow to find out about the situation of that store."

After talking about the family affairs, Ning Cheng asked Ning Qiu. "Qiu, what kind of store do you open in Luoyang?"

Ning Qiu smiled, "What kind of shop can I open, not just for food. The business in the shop is not bad, but the income is no less than that of the workshop at home."

"Then when you go home on vacation, the store will be left unattended?"

"No, I asked someone to look after the store."

"Help someone?! Is it reliable?"

"Well, people are very nice."

"That's good."

"By the way, why didn't I see my aunt when I came back?"

"Oh, she went back to her mother's house yesterday, and she should be back tomorrow."

"Are those brothers and Huimin all right?"

Mentioning the children, Ning Cheng sighed, "All the boys are fine, but Huimin..."

"What happened to Huimin?"

In May, Huimin wrote a letter to her family. At that time, Ning Cheng was quite happy, but when she snatched the letter from her daughter-in-law to read it, she became worried after reading it.

The daughter wrote back not for anything else, but to ask for money.If you say that you can't keep up with your studies and have to spend money to make up lessons, it will cost [-] yuan.

At that time, the workshop at home happened to be closed and a fine was paid.Although the two still had some savings on hand, they couldn't help but spend it like this.You must know that Ning Huimin is only in the first year of high school, and there are still two years until graduation.How good would they be if they were like this every year.

Of course, he didn't have the face to tell his niece about this, so he could only shake his head.

"It's nothing, but Huimin's academic pressure is high. You also know that she went to a key high school in the province, with high requirements."

"Oh, that's it." It's normal to feel pressure, and Ning Qiu didn't pay much attention after hearing it.

In the dead of night, he tossed and turned in bed.

Thinking of his daughter, Ning Cheng couldn't be calm for a long time.

As the father of the child, as the head of the family, he had to do something.

He has no skills, and he can only farm the land all his life.But now he can't afford the children's living and learning expenses just by farming. He doesn't want to ruin the children's future because of himself.

correct!And Ning Qiu!The workshop at home was run by Qiu alone. Qiu is so capable, maybe she can point out the way for her useless uncle.

It doesn't matter if it loses face, it doesn't matter if it is looked down upon by Qiu.He is a father, and of course the future of the children is more important than that.
