Chapter 1160: Writing A Letter Home

The small shop had officially started selling the milk tea, but naturally, they couldn’t just sell it without making a profit. So, Su Bing suggested they raise the price slightly. After all, the students at this school were from relatively well-off families, and even if the price was a bit higher, as long as the product was good and appealing enough, there was no reason to fear unsold inventory.

With this, the Su brothers had become partners with the school’s small shop, and their reputation in school grew.

As for Xie Wen, he came from a single-parent family and had been helping his mother with small business ventures from a young age. He was quite business-savvy and performed well academically, so he had a loyal following.

However, after meeting Su Bing, he realized there was so much more to learn. He decided that from now on, he would seek more opportunities to be around people like Su Bing, believing that associating with those who were truly capable would only lead to good things.

Su Bing shared the details of the partnership with Gu Zi, feeling that it was important to keep his mother informed so she wouldn’t worry unnecessarily.

Upon hearing the news, Gu Zi praised him warmly, “Su Bing, you’re amazing. I’m so proud of you.”

When Su Li heard his mother praising only his brother, not him, he quickly jumped in, eager to take some credit. “Mom, it was me who set up this partnership! Xie Wen came to me first, and only later did he talk to Brother. Now, the whole school knows about us!”

Gu Zi laughed, “Our Su Li is impressive too! I’m so happy to have both of you as my sons.”

But then, she added thoughtfully, “Since you’re working with the small shop, make sure to take it seriously. Su Bing, remember to keep some samples of the milk tea after you make them. I’ll clear some space in the fridge for you.”

Even though they were now working with the school’s small shop, Gu Zi knew that as the business grew, they had to be extra careful. When it came to selling food, food safety was paramount—only then could they be worry-free.

Looking at the small curve of her belly, Su Bing couldn’t bear the thought of letting his mother do any work. He smiled and said, “I’ve got it covered, Mom. I’ll handle the fridge, and you just make sure to rest more.”𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Gu Zi nodded, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

She had given up trying to argue. These days, with the men of the house doing everything for her, she didn’t even have to lift a finger. If she so much as coughed, the entire family would fuss over her.

But despite all this attention, she couldn’t help but wonder: since becoming pregnant, she hadn’t experienced any discomfort at all. Her pregnancy seemed so uneventful. Aside from a slightly bigger belly, she felt no different from before. Sometimes, she even forgot she was pregnant.

That afternoon, Su Shen returned home, hauling in a heavy package from the post office. Gu Zi immediately recognized it—this package had to be from her parents back at Guangcheng. Not long ago, she had written to them, sharing the news of her pregnancy, so it wasn’t surprising that she had received a parcel from them.

She had initially considered calling them to give them the news directly. After all, they lived in a house in the city now, and they had a phone. However, long-distance calls were expensive, and while she could afford the cost, she knew her parents might not be comfortable with it. So, she opted for a letter instead.

Inside the package, there were two smaller ones. One contained hometown delicacies—smoked cured meats, sausages, and other specialties. The other held hand-knitted winter clothes and shoes, made by her mother, An Yun, and Li Hua.

The thoughtful care of her family brought warmth to her heart. There were even clothes for Su Shen and the three children. It was clear how much her family cared for her, and she couldn’t help but feel touched.

Gu Zi handed out the new clothes and shoes to the children, and they were thrilled. Even though they already had plenty of clothes and shoes, there was something extra special about receiving these handmade items from their grandmother and aunt.
