Chapter 74: The Shop Stays Open
Other than that, Qin Xiangnuan didn’t feel much, but that sentence about staying a grade behind to attend school with her brother seemed pretty good. However, she couldn’t just not open the pancake shop; they had only saved thousands of dollars, which was not enough, not nearly enough.
After waiting for decades, a place would cost hundreds of thousands or millions. If they were going to study in Beijing, future expenses would be even greater. They had no one to rely on, only themselves. But if both siblings went to school, they couldn’t run the business. It wouldn’t be possible to get up in the middle of the night to set up the stall and make pancakes, nor could they stay in the shop all day.
If the shop closed, she would really miss it.
So, they needed to think of a solution.
The shop absolutely couldn’t close; their family shop’s location was unlike any other and could actually be operated 24 hours a day.
"Ah, child, what are you making Aunt Hua do here?"
Aunt Hua was sitting on the tricycle, initially thinking the children wanted her help with shopping, but then confused as to why they had brought her to the bus station.
"Auntie, please sit," Qin Xiangnuan told Aunt Hua to sit on a small stool next to her, and then she and Wendi made pancakes and sold porridge.
Although there were now many other food stalls around, their business was still the best. They had returning customers, and their food tasted better than what others made.
