Mu Mu smiled smugly. “Of course we have more than that. Young Uncle, businesses seem to be doing exceptionally well lately!

“Older Cousin opened two small restaurants and made quite a bit. He’s been preparing to expand lately! He’s been running to the southern regions. I wonder what he’s studying. We’ve also done a few small things here and there.”

Mo Beihan said, “What’s your motive today? Let’s hear it.”

Mu Mu smiled. “We want to ask you some questions. Young Uncle, you’ve been overseas, and you’re knowledgeable and experienced. You’ve been back for so long, but you haven’t asked Grandfather to find a job for you. It seems that you’re not going to work for a fixed wage. You must have some businesses, right?”

“Can you give us some pointers? So.. we can see which line to go into?”

Mo Beihan looked at the two young boys. “You’re still young. Why are you thinking about such things so early? Finish your studies. There’s still time for such things later.”

Mu Mu pouted. “What the school is teaching is not enough.”historical

Mo Beihan: “..”

“Brat, you’re so arrogant! You’re just a young boy. Don’t be so arrogant!”

Mu Mu shrank back. “I’m not arrogant! Young Uncle, I didn’t say that I’m going to spend all my time earning money. I just.. I study so hard every day. I need some hobbies as a relief. I’m just using my spare time to earn a little money and for a change of scenery!”

Mo Beihan: “..”

Was this boy human?

So what if he was smart!

“There are many gaps in the market now. Everything is in short supply, be it food, clothes, housing, or transport. It’s easy to succeed in anything. If you really want to earn some pocket money, then you can do anything you like. Just find something simple and easy to do.

“But if you want to run your business long-term and make it a career, then you have to consider it carefully and find something you’re good at.”

Mu Mu and Mo Chengrui exchanged glances and fell into deep thought.

Gu Qingyao had been keeping her parents company recently. They not only had to furnish the new house, they also had to tidy the old Qiao house.

The old compound had been damaged, so the Qiao family refurbished it after they returned to China. At last, everything was complete.

Gu Qingyao smiled happily as she stood in the quaint courtyard.

“This courtyard is so big, I can reserve a space for planting vegetables and grow flowers over there. It will be very beautiful in the future!”

Mo Beihan was amused. “How extravagant of you to use a traditional courtyard house for planting vegetables.”

Gu Qingyao smiled. “This is our old family home. You can’t compare like that.”

Mo Beihan said, “Spring has arrived, so you can start planting flowers. What do you want to plant? I’ll do it with you.”

Gu Qingyao looked around. “Grandmother said that I can have the courtyard in the future. We’ll plant some flowers and medicinal herbs there. We’ll find an area outside to plant vegetables.”

“All right!”

This was the Qiao family’s residence, in the traditional sense of the word. This traditional courtyard house had been passed down from ancient times.

There were many standalone compounds here. Gu Yunshen and Qiao Yuying would mostly stay here with the two old folks after their wedding. As their daughter, Gu Qingyao would naturally stay here too.

She had her own little courtyard, which had already been refurbished. If she felt that anything was lacking, she could just add whatever she liked.

For the past few days, Gu Qingyao had been busy with Mo Beihan, selecting the furniture and vases she liked. In a few days, Mo Beihan would send all the furniture, vases, display shelves and even vegetable seeds to her.

The little courtyard instantly felt more lively.

Gu Qingyao had been very happy busying herself over these little things.
