A while later, Hai Tong came out of the room and saw the old lady still pretending to rummage through the cupboard looking for her non-existent presbyopia, Hai Tong said, “Grandma, forget it if you can’t find it, I’ll take you to get a new pair of presbyopia glasses later.”
“That’s fine, then I won’t look for them, I’m old and have a bad memory, I obviously put them here and now I can’t find them, they’ve grown legs and run away on their own.”
Hai Tong laughed, “Maybe it grew wings and turned into a butterfly and flew away.”
The old lady said sadly, “I didn’t see it turn into a butterfly and fly away.”
Hai Tong was amused by her old lady and could not stop laughing.
“When did Grandma come back last night?”
“Grandma came back before you did, and went to bed so early last night that she didn’t know when you came back.”
Hai Tong didn’t quite believe it, but didn’t say any more.
After the three of them had their breakfast, the old lady said she had to go and chat with the other old ladies in the neighbourhood and left, while Zhan Yin walked Hai Tong back to the shop.
Hai Tong called her sister on the way.
“Sister, how was business today?”
“Very good, I was so busy that I couldn’t keep my feet off the floor, luckily Aunt Liang came over early to help me, if business was this good every day, I would have to hire someone to help.” Aunt Liang was, after all, a worker in her sister’s household, she couldn’t keep asking Aunt Liang for help.
Hai Ling was afraid to hire someone at first because she didn’t know how the business would be.
“It will definitely always be good business.” Hai Tong had felt that her sister’s breakfast shop would do a brisk business when she decided to start a catering business.
“Tong Tong, Sister is in the heart, I’ll talk to you at lunchtime when I’m free.”
Hai Ling was so busy that she didn’t even have time to talk to her sister on the phone.
“Then sis will be busy first, sis will bring Yang Yang over for lunch, I’ll buy the dishes you like to eat.”
Hai Ling readily agreed, it was time for her to go over to her sister’s side and talk about the lawsuit with the old family extreme to get the property back.
Hai Tong didn’t tell her sister about last night’s incident over the phone, so that she wouldn’t worry about it.
After hanging up the phone, Hai Ling went on with her busy schedule.
Aunt Liang’s helpers were also too busy for Yang Yang to have anyone to look after him. Luckily, the little one was very well behaved and sat by himself inside the checkout counter playing with the blocks.
Zhou Honglin pushed the door in and saw that the tables in the shop were full of people eating breakfast, some of them had already eaten and some were still waiting while looking at their phones.
What a picture of a thriving business.
He was stunned, and inwardly he couldn’t tell how lost he was.
Deep down, he wanted Hailing to do nothing, preferably without a source of income like him.
“Yang Yang.”
Zhou Honglin was just stunned and quickly came back to his senses, seeing his son sitting alone inside the cashier, he walked straight towards him.
“Dad.”
Yang Yang was bored playing by himself, but his mother was very busy, she said she had to earn lots and lots of money for him to go to school, he had to be obedient and couldn’t keep bothering his mother.
Yang Yang was happier than he had ever been when he saw that his dad had come.
After he stretched out his arms for Zhou Honglin to pick him up, his big black eyes looked at his dad and asked happily, “Daddy, are you here to take me to the zoo to see the tigers?”
The last time his dad said he would take him to the zoo to see the tigers, he chose to follow his sister-in-law to play.
However, the little one still remembered what daddy had said.
Zhou Honglin smiled, “Daddy is not available today, can we take Yang Yang to the zoo some other day when we are free?”
