Chapter 342 Seeing them happy,
The family is busy and living in the courtyard, experiencing every ordinary and beautiful day together. They know that no matter how unpredictable the future is, as long as there is love in their hearts and home is by their side, everything will become beautiful and fulfilling.
Soon, a month passed. The business of the courtyard house, the small supermarket and the coffee shop continued to be prosperous, with an endless stream of customers every day. Huaihua and her family were still busy and fulfilled. They not only achieved success in business, but also had a more harmonious family relationship.
One morning, Huaihua came to the small supermarket early. She had discussed with Su Bai last night that they would do a big cleanup and tidying up today, including the merchandise on the shelves, the placement of the counters, and the work assignments of the employees. This was a big move since they started the business, hoping to improve the overall image and service quality of the store.
Su Xu saw that his sister was very busy, so he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Sister Huaihua, why are you so busy today?"
Huaihua smiled and explained: "We plan to do a major reorganization and rearrange the store to make customers feel more comfortable and convenient."
Su Xu smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't this exhausting? I think the store is doing pretty well now."
"Although it's not bad now, we need to maintain our competitiveness and continuously improve our service and quality," Huaihua said seriously.
Su Xu shrugged, knowing that her sister had made up her mind, so she helped. They took down the goods on the shelves one by one, wiped them clean, and rearranged them. Su Xu complained from time to time, but still did every detail work seriously.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the cafe opened its doors to welcome customers. Huaihua and Su Bai were busy at the coffee machine, brewing the best coffee for every customer. The cafe was filled with the rich aroma of coffee, warm and comfortable.
"Sister Huaihua, today's new decoration is really beautiful!" A regular customer exclaimed when he saw the changes.
Huaihua smiled and said, "Thank you for your likes. We will continue to work hard to provide you with better service."
The cafe gradually filled up with customers, who were enjoying the delicious coffee and the peaceful environment. The energetic Xiaodang was busy serving the guests, and every smile and service conveyed their care and enthusiasm.
At noon, the small supermarket in the courtyard was also very busy. Customers came in one after another to shop, and Huaihua and Su Xu were busy behind the counter, collecting money and sorting out the goods. They greeted every customer with a smile, carefully asked about their needs, and made everyone feel the warmth and comfort of home.
"Sister Huaihua, you see our business is so good today, is there anything else you need me to do?" Su Xu wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at the customers who kept coming in and out, which was a bit noisy.
Huaihua finished her work and replied with a smile: "You continue to help at the counter. I'll go see if there is any other place that needs help."
Su Xu nodded and continued to concentrate on processing the checkout of each customer. Although he was a little reluctant, he felt relieved and proud to see his sisters working so hard to run the family business.
In the afternoon, the cultural salon was held as scheduled. The cafe was packed with guests, who gathered together to discuss various literary works and art topics. Huaihua and Su Bai also joined in, and they had cordial exchanges with the guests, sharing their insights and feelings.
"The atmosphere here is really good. I've been here several times," said one participant excitedly.
Su Bai smiled and said: "Thank you for your support, we will continue to hold more interesting activities, you are welcome to come often."
The event lasted for two hours, and after it ended, the guests left one after another, leaving behind a scene full of laughter and joy. Huaihua and Su Bai cleaned up the venue while discussing the arrangements and details for the next event.
"Sister Huaihua, today's event was really a success!" Xiaodang said excitedly.
Huaihua smiled and responded: "Yes, our efforts have been recognized and loved by everyone."
At night, the courtyard is brightly lit. The family sits around the stone table in the yard, enjoying the quiet night. The wind blows gently, bringing the fragrance of locust flowers, as if telling the story of their hard work and the warmth of home.
"Today is a busy and fulfilling day." Su Nan picked up the teacup and said with a smile.
Su Bai nodded in agreement: "Yes, but seeing the satisfied and smiling faces of the guests, it's all worth it."
Huaihua quietly looked at every corner of the yard, her heart filled with gratitude and satisfaction: "This courtyard is not only our home, but also a symbol of our efforts and struggles."
Su Ming patted her shoulder gently: "Huaihua, you did a great job. I am proud of you."
Su Ming's father, Su Daye, is a successful entrepreneur who runs a furniture manufacturing company. The company was passed down from Su Ming's grandfather, and after years of development, it has become one of the largest companies in the small town. Su Ming's mother, Li Mei, is an elementary school teacher. She is gentle, virtuous, well-educated and well-mannered. Su Ming also has a younger sister named Su Xiaoxiao, who is three years younger than him and is a lively and lovely girl.
Su Ming was smart and studious since he was young, and his grades were excellent. His parents had high expectations for him, hoping that he could be admitted to a prestigious university and inherit the family business in the future. However, Su Ming had his own dreams. He loved writing since he was a child, especially fantasy stories. His desk was always piled with all kinds of novels, including Chinese classics and foreign fantasy novels. Su Ming often immersed himself in these stories, fantasizing that he could also become a writer and write his own legend.
In high school, Su Ming met a Chinese teacher, Mr. Chen, who had a profound influence on him. Mr. Chen was an experienced teacher with rich teaching experience and a deep understanding and love for literature. He discovered Su Ming's talent in writing, encouraged him to write more, and recommended many excellent literary works to him. Under the guidance of Mr. Chen, Su Ming's writing skills improved significantly, and his articles were often published in the school magazine.
As the college entrance examination approaches, Su Ming faces an important choice in his life. His parents want him to apply for a major in economics or management so that he can inherit the family business in the future. But Su Ming firmly chooses literature. He wants to pursue his dream and become a writer. He knows that this choice may disappoint his parents, but he is unwilling to give up his ideal.
On the night of filling out the college entrance examination application form, Su Ming had a long conversation with his parents. He confessed his thoughts and dreams to his parents, hoping to gain their understanding and support. His parents were shocked and disappointed at first, but seeing their son's firm eyes and unyielding determination, they finally compromised. His father sighed.
