Chapter 688: Temptation
Ren Zhen can see Xu Bomin's mind from the collation of manuscripts, and he can also see his ambition from the academic papers he has published one after another.
He can't go to the sea to make money like Ye Qingqing, and that's not what he likes, so he can only think of ways from other aspects, but doing academics is not an overnight thing, he is really too impatient like this.
Ren Zhen looked at Ye Qingqing, who was smiling evilly while writing not far away, and couldn't help but raise his hand and pat him on his knee.
"Grandma understands your thoughts, back then, when I was with your grandfather, I also thought that he was good everywhere, and I was not worthy of him at all, but when you reach my age, you will find that everything you care about now is not something she will care about.
"In their hearts, there is no such thing as whether they are worthy or not, what they care about is whether we are doing well, whether every day is meaningful, and whether they can be with us all the time.
"Before your grandfather died, he kept holding my hand and saying that he was sorry, that he was willful, that he didn't do what he promised me, and that he didn't worry about me alone.
"Bo Min, don't think too much about emotional matters, just go with your heart, you see Qingqing she likes you and say it generously, all of us can see from her eyes that she likes you.
"Don't push yourself too hard, don't put all your energy into research and manuscripts, and spend a little more time with Qingqing.
"Her pregnancy is not going well, it will still be a problem to take care of the child after the child is born, and it will take time for her body to recuperate, how to deal with and balance these things, do you have an idea now?"
Xu Bomin was stunned by Ren Zhen's words, he had thought about all of this, and because he had thought about it, he had become a little anxious recently.
He is not a superman, he can't take care of both aspects very well, he must not be able to leave his family, but in terms of academics, he is very afraid that he will start to fall behind after he is left behind.
He had been worried about this for a long time, but now he was awakened by Ren Zhen's words, he was too greedy, his family and reputation were wanted, but he forgot what his original intention was to want fame.
"Thank you grandma, I know what to do."
Thinking about this, his whole person relaxed, he couldn't be too impatient, he couldn't think too much, he actually had a lot of time, and they still had many years to go on hand in hand in the future.
"It's good to figure it out, go talk to her, when I come back this time, I feel that you and Qingqing have less words, you can't do this, how can you have nothing to say between you, there is really no communication between each other in the future, then it is not far from respecting each other."
Just a little respect for each other, and now you love each other wholeheartedly and think about each other wholeheartedly.
Xu Bomin was a little ashamed, he didn't not stop communicating with her, but her snooze routine rarely intersected with him now, so the contact became less.
It's just that although he thinks like this, he also knows that it is wrong for him to think like this, because she is unwell because she is pregnant, so her schedule and rest are unstable, and the more times like this, the more he should be by her side, instead of still following the previous pace.
Realizing his mistake again, Xu Bomin walked to Ye Qingqing's side full of guilt in Ren Zhen's encouraging gaze.
Ye Qingqing was still struggling to write, and he didn't put down the pen in his hand when he felt that the person who came over, so he only asked: "Why did you come over and discuss it with grandma?" β
"Not yet, but it's not in a hurry, the milk won't leave in the future, and it's too late to come over and discuss it when you come."
Her letter did not avoid him, Xu Bomin glanced at it unceremoniously, he was a little surprised, what did he do to write Ye Pingping in such detail about being almost beaten that day?
"Qingqing, do you want to tell Sisi about this?"
He doesn't understand the friendship between girls, this is very private, how can he say it so much.
"Of course I have to tell you, Sisi told me before that she wanted to match her second brother and my eldest sister, and said that she wouldn't let my eldest sister come back, I'll write to her now to tell her about it, and she will know how to do it."
As soon as Pei Sisi saw that Ye Pingping was almost beaten by her ex-husband on the street, she would definitely tell Pei Siyuan as soon as possible, and Pei Siyuan's attitude was ...... This is what Ye Qingqing cares about the most, if he is indifferent and only says a few clichΓ©s, that is, there are Ye Jianshe and Qian Sen in Kyoto, and she will not let Ye Pingping go to Huating again.
But on the contrary, if he didn't react, or showed distress or other emotions that shouldn't have been, she would immediately throw Ye Pingping over after the New Year.
Pei Siyuan knows Ye Pingping's situation very well, even Hao Shuying also knows that Ye Pingping has been married, Ye Pingping is very real to their family, and the real can make them weigh all kinds of pros and cons and mentality to choose whether to accept her.
If he could, Ye Qingqing really wanted Pei Siyuan to be his brother-in-law.
That tsundere guy, there should be someone to clean him up.
Xu Bomin is a little ...... I can't find what words should be used to describe what she just thought, it's too daring to think, let Pei Siyuan be her brother-in-law?
Can't she really see that Pei Siyuan likes her? As a man, Pei Siyuan's forbearance when he looked at Ye Qingqing, as well as the subconscious following of his gaze, he couldn't have been clearer.
"Qingqing, will you be too hasty like this, if you and Sisi are amorous, your eldest sister will be very embarrassed in the future."
"But you have to give it a try, you can't let go of this opportunity because of embarrassment, Bo Min, have you ever thought that if I was polite to you when I went to Holland, and then entertained you as an ordinary friend, and sent you on the train after the reception, would you be embarrassed at that time? Will you regret coming to Holland again? β
Xu Bomin didn't speak, he kind of understood Ye Qingqing's thoughts.
"You've always been braver and think more than I am."
"It's not that I'm braver than you, it's because ......" she looked at the letter and smiled: "Anyway, it's not me who will be embarrassed at that time, it's all my credit, and it doesn't affect me at all." β
Xu Bomin smiled, he raised his hand to arrange Ye Qingqing's hair that was cut short because she was pregnant.
"When the children are born, you can grow your hair again, and you look the best with long hair."
Ye Qingqing nodded: "Well, you can tie up your hair when it grows, it's too inconvenient now, so you have to keep it." β
She finished writing the last sentence, folded the letter and handed it to Xu Bomin: "Help me send it." β
Ye Pingping was afraid that Xu Hongsui's eyes would always fall on her, so she ran to the kitchen and never came out, but fortunately, Xu Boying was also here to help, and the two of them had endless words when they got together.
"Pingping, do you say that after the year, will we continue to open a clothing store or a luggage store, or directly make the shoe store bigger?"
No matter what kind of store it is, it is very profitable in Kyoto now, and Xu Boying is obviously picking all the eyes now.
"Luggage stores or shoe stores, these styles are not very frequent, buy more goods at a time, you can only go to the south once a month or two, not too hard.
"As for the clothing store, there are almost twenty stores on our side and Huating now, and each style store produces about six to eight pieces, and a total of one hundred and forty-five looks will be made.
"If we continue to open clothing stores, we can reduce the cost of a single piece again, but whether the market in Kyoto is saturated now depends on the sales of each store after the end of the year.
"If there are too many clothes in the store that can't be sold, it will have a big impact on us, so it's better to look at the luggage store or the shoe store."
Ye Pingping's analysis is very objective, she has been in the factory in Huating for a few months, and she knows the production cost of various styles in the factory very well.
In her opinion, the cost of producing at least 300 pieces of a style is within a reasonable range, but now the shipping method of more than 100 pieces makes the cost of each piece of clothing high.
Of course, the best way to reduce costs is to increase shipments, so it is important to open new stores, but Kyoto has not yet entered a period of rapid development, and the city is so large that there are more stores, and the business of each store will be affected.
Therefore, it is not up to them to decide what store to open after the year, but it should be decided by the market.
Xu Boying didn't expect her to be able to say so many big truths, she looked at her sideways for a long time, and finally just gave her a thumbs up.
