248. Chapter 248: How About You Scold Me a Few Times

Hearing that, Qiao Sheng looked at Lan Yue Niang and said, "Mother, you should take good care of yourself in the days ahead, don't do exhausting work. As for your pregnancy, it's enough that we know; for now, don't tell anyone else."

Lan Yue Niang nodded.

Qiao Hushui and the others also nodded.

They returned to the shop.

Qiao Sheng sat down and hadn't rested long when Zhang Qiao arrived.

"Qiao'er, you're here, come in and sit down quickly."

Zhang Qiao smiled and sat opposite Qiao Sheng.

She drank a bowl of water poured by Qiao Sheng.

Zhang Qiao said with a smile, "Lianhua, we're preparing to open a shop. In the past two months we've saved that much money, and now many are opening shops."

Since they want a shop, Qiao Sheng naturally didn't oppose.

"Have you found a location?"

Zhang Qiao replied, "Found it, on Tongyuan Street. It's not as good a spot as yours, but there are still some people living nearby."

Qiao Sheng asked again how much per month.

The rent wasn't expensive: three hundred wen a month.

Qiao Sheng was a bit surprised.

Zhang Qiao seemed to have guessed, and said, "The previous owner of this shop had to go away for a few months. If not for that, we definitely couldn't rent it at this price."

Qiao Sheng's brows knit.

"Then won't you have to look for another shop later?"

"Hmm."

Zhang Qiao responded, "We've looked at other shops, but none are as good as this one. Let's rent it for now and change later."

"It has to be this way."

Qiao Sheng had just finished speaking.

Zhang Qiao handed her an invitation: "Our shop will open in five days; remember to all come then."

She hadn't originally planned to make invitations; Sun Shuisheng thought a invitation would be better, so they ordered some.

"Alright!"

Qiao Sheng accepted the invitation.

When the shop opened, Zhang Qiao and the others invited, besides Qiao Sheng's group, Sun Shuisheng's older brother's family, Sun Shuisheng's parents, her maternal family, and also a few of Sun Shuisheng's friends.

Qiao Sheng's party arrived late; by the time they came, all of their relatives and friends had already arrived.

Fang Hemiao was also there today; when she saw Qiao Sheng she spoke in a sarcastic tone, "You younger sibling, your shop's second landlord has arrived."

Although Zhang Qiao didn't say it was Qiao Sheng who taught them, she had already guessed.

She then thought about learning from them.

Never expected.

Zhang Qiao didn't hesitate to reject them.

When she learned they were opening a shop in a few days, Fang Hemiao's mind came up with another idea: to buy shares and get dividends.

Result.

Zhang Qiao said they were a small shop and wouldn't take investment, and also said they would give a portion to Qiao Sheng.

If it weren't for that.

Fang Hemiao also didn't know Qiao Sheng had dividends in their shop.

When she said that, everyone turned to look at Qiao Sheng's group.

Zhang Qiao, angry at Fang Hemiao, had Sun Shuisheng call over Qiao Hushui and the others; she took Qiao Sheng to a secluded spot to talk.

"Lianhua, I'm sorry, I let it slip."

"It's fine."

Qiao Sheng didn't blame Zhang Qiao; she had thought at that time that Fang Hemiao might hold a grudge.

Even if she didn't say it.

Fang Hemiao probably could still guess.

Zhang Qiao still felt a bit apologetic: "Lianhua, how about you scold me a few words?"

Qiao Sheng smiled.

"What good does it do for me to scold you? You already know you were wrong, right? Fine, don't blame yourself any more; today is the shop's opening day, be happy about it."

Zhang Qiao thought about it and stopped agonizing over it.

When Qiao Sheng went to the back‑yard living room and sat down, they noticed someone staring at their younger sister.
