Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 222
After hearing this, Mother Xue did not blame her daughter at all.

"If you think it's good, just invest. As long as it won't affect other people and the cost won't be too big, then go ahead and invest. In business, there are some that are safe and some that make a lot of money and lose a lot. Like a photo studio, if someone comes, you can You can make money, but there are no risks.”

Xue Ling smiled and said: "The cost is not big, but I still like it quite a lot. If we add a little advertising, and occasionally offer some [-]% off or [-]% off package deals during festivals, a lot of people should come."

"Well, that's right." Xue's mother explained: "If you do a lot of business, you need some tips. Otherwise, how can you compete with others?"

Cheng Tianyuan secretly praised his mother-in-law. She was indeed from a big city, and she was far-sighted and knowledgeable.

"Mom, why don't you go in and have a look together? [-]% of this store is owned by Lingling. Maybe you can give her some good advice."

Mother Xue said with a smile: "I'll just go down and take a look. I can't give you any opinions. But I looked at the store and it should be pretty good. It's very eye-catching and beautiful."

After the two got off the car, they quickly helped Xue Ling down.

As soon as the car stopped, Ahu, who was busy inside, saw it and ran out quickly.

"Ayuan and sister-in-law are here! Yo! This must be Aunt Xue, right? Hello, hello!"

Xue Ling explained with a smile: "He is brother Ahu and a good friend of ours. He works in the Ministry of Transportation. Now I ask him to be my assistant."

When Xue's mother heard that he had been a public official, she was full of admiration and stepped forward to shake hands with him.

"Comrade Tiger is so tall!"

Ahu laughed and took her hand into the photo studio.

"Auntie, Rongcheng is more prosperous and advanced than the imperial capital, but it has developed very quickly in the past two years. There are many suites under my sister-in-law's name. If you and your uncle are free, you can come here more often to hang out and relax. You won't have to worry about anything. Live somewhere!"

Mother Xue nodded and said, "Am I already here? Their suites are very nice, and I felt comfortable staying there last night."

Ahu quickly introduced the photo studio to them, "The decoration is almost complete. The two shops are quite wide, and there is a large section inside. The attic is small. Liu Xing plans to store and wash cameras in the future."

There is parking outside the door, and the two stores are connected. The place looks very spacious at first glance. The windows should be newly installed, and the glass is sparkling.

"Liu Xing and his wife made these ornaments, which are both pasted and hung. Many of them were made by Wang Qing's sister-in-law herself. They are really ingenious!"

Xue Ling also thought it was beautiful when she saw it, and couldn't help but mutter: "I don't know any of these. Except for paper cranes, I don't seem to know how to do any handicrafts."

Mother Xue on the side laughed: "I taught you a lot when you were a child, but you didn't like to learn. The paper-cuts I made were torn apart by you in a short while."

Xue Ling: "..."

Cheng Tianyuan smiled softly and held her hand.

"You were really active when you were a child. You would take apart any gadgets and play with them."

Ahu laughed and said: "Sister-in-law, everyone has their own expertise. You are making great money! If you have money, are you still worried about not being able to buy such handicrafts? It's not difficult!"

"That's right!" Xue Ling gave him a thumbs up, "What Ahu said is so good!"

Mother Xue gave her a disdainful look, and then looked around.

"Hey! As you said just now, I have a good suggestion. Look, why not cut some beautiful paper cuts on this area and the wall over there! The cost is not high, just a little paper."

"This is good!" Xue Ling said with a smile: "Mom, you are half a paper-cutting master, I leave this to you!"

Every New Year and holiday, my mother would cut out all kinds of beautiful patterns and paste them on the windows in the house, which not only has a festive atmosphere, but also has an artistic feel.

The photo studio is beautifully decorated, and the people who take the photos think the scenery is beautiful, and the results are good, and the reputation will come.

Mother Xue looked at her angrily and said with a smile: "As long as you are from the Imperial City, there is no one who can't do this. What kind of master am I? At most, I was damaged too much by you. I cut more, practice makes perfect!"

Ahu said quickly: "There is all kinds of paper over there. Auntie, why don't you take some back and cut some over when you are free." Xue's mother pointed at Xue Ling's big belly and chuckled: "I'm here to take care of you. She's in confinement, she hasn't given birth yet! I'm very free. Go get some paper, and I'll cut some for you right now."

"Okay!" Ahu hurriedly ran to get it.

At this time, an elegant man in his fifties came down from the attic and looked at them curiously.

"Is this a guest?"

Xue Ling stepped forward, holding her big belly, and greeted with a smile: "Are you Liu Xing's father? Uncle, hello! I am Xue Ling, and this is my lover Cheng Tianyuan."

"Hey! It turns out to be Xiao Xue!" Liu Dafu came over quickly and shook hands warmly.

Xue Ling explained: "I will be busy giving birth to a baby in a few days, so I leave it to you and Liu Xing and the others."

"You are too polite." Liu Dafu whispered excitedly: "If you hadn't valued Liu Xing's little skills, his dream would not have been realized. When that kid came back after graduation, he clamored to open a photo studio. . He also saved money and bought a camera, which is very expensive. Unfortunately, his family situation does not allow him to open a photo studio. He has been very busy recently, but he smiles every day. We are also happy for him. .”

Xue Ling couldn't help but sigh: "It's a wonderful thing to be able to turn your hobby into a career and make a little money."

Cheng Tianyuan on the side was slightly shocked after hearing this and couldn't help but look at her.

Xue Ling noticed something strange in his eyes, raised an eyebrow at him and smiled, asking with eyes: "What's wrong?"

Cheng Tianyuan whispered: "We'll talk about it when we get back."

Mother Xue showed off her skills at the photo studio and cut out some lifelike noble peonies, which made both A Hu and Liu Dafu stunned!

"Wow! It's so beautiful!"

Mother Xue brought some paper and said, "If you don't mind it, I will cut out a few more pieces."

"Thank you so much!" Ahu said with a smile, "Auntie is a rare paper-cutting master!"

Mother Xue was so flattered that she went home with Xue Ling and the others with a large stack of paper.

Cheng Tianyuan entered the house and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Xue Ling couldn't help but follow him and look at his busy back.

"Brother Yuan, I accidentally said those words earlier. Did you feel... uncomfortable?"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and shook his head: "Where! I think it's right and very good."

Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "What were your interests when you were a child? I never heard you mention it."

He replied: "I like everything, but I don't particularly like anything. If I do, it's probably the one who likes selling things the most when playing house with my little playmates."

"Then you've got what you wanted now!" Xue Ling said with a smile.

Cheng Tianyuan whispered: "It's not good enough."

"Tell me about it!" Xue Ling helped cut vegetables, "Do you want to open a supermarket? A chain store type of supermarket?"

Cheng Tianyuan was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "What is a supermarket? What is a chain?"

Xue Ling secretly thought something was wrong, guessing that people at this time did not have these two concepts.

"That... this is a store model only found in Western countries. The word 'chain' is also translated from English."

"Oh? What exactly is it?"

"A supermarket is a large store that selects its own goods. It displays a variety of goods. After customers select their own goods, they just go to the door and pay. A chain means that it belongs to the same store name and has branches in various places. It is almost like this I mean."
