Chapter 51

◎ "It will produce very sweet candies."◎

The best way is undoubtedly to apply for professional schools abroad, and perhaps they will be able to work in top film companies in the future, but the problem they must face now is, where will the money come from?

Studying art is undoubtedly expensive. Although this money is not worth mentioning for the Wen family, it is a real problem for Wen Xu who has left his family.

There is no way around it.

It also involves another problem that must be faced.

"When are you going home," Du Ningyang asked, "You still have to go home."

She couldn't imagine, and never thought that a person could really and completely break away from his parents and family. As she had expected early on, she and Wen Xu would only be together temporarily, suspended together, and would not and could not last long.

He sat beside her, one arm lazily resting on her shoulder, "I'm not going back. I finally made up my mind, and I'm relying on you. I won't go back no matter what. Besides, I don't have to realize my previous dream right now, let's save some money first."

"I can't save any money as an assistant in the studio," she said without hiding anything, "I can only make a living."

He looked at the swaying tree shadows outside the window, exhaled lightly, and said frankly: "Well, I know what's going on, but the strings in my mind have been too tight, I have to relax first, and when I'm almost recovered, I'll think of other ways."

"Well, don't worry," she turned sideways, looked at his drooping eyelashes, raised her hand and touched his face, "If you can't learn special effects makeup, you can also learn makeup. Learning makeup is not expensive... In short, I have personally tested that within the scope of my ability, doing what I want to do, I can make money to support myself. Anyway, at the very least, if I can't save any money, I can still afford to eat cabbage and tofu."

She has a lot of experience in this regard.

"Are you really not going back?" She couldn't help but confirm it again.

"Well," he said confidently, "I won't go back."

He made up his mind. He no longer needed those false loves, fragile family ties, and relationships that required self-sacrifice. He wanted to spend every day with her sincerely, whether it was a good day or a bad day.

He would not go back.

If he had not received Wen Pinyan's call.

-

In the afternoon, Zhu Yao came to visit with Xiao Taoer. As soon as Xiao Taoer entered the room, she saw the tattoo stickers scattered on the table and shouted "I want to stick them, I want to stick them."

"These are for adults, wait until you grow up to stick them," Zhu Yao obviously did not foresee the power of children.

"I want to stick them, I want to stick them!" Xiao Taoer stretched out her tone, "I have to stick them."

Zhu Yao took out a board of shiny stickers from her bag, "How about this one? Mom will stick two heart earrings on you."

"No, I want this one, I want my aunt's one--" She waved her hands and feet and cried loudly.

Such a cute child has entered the annoying stage, making Du Ningyang and Zhu Yao's ears numb.

"Put it on her. This is a new one I bought. It's made of plant dyes and has no additives. It should be okay to put it on a place where she can't lick it," Du Ningyang picked up Xiao Tao'er skillfully and coaxed her, "right, right, our little Tao Tao."

Zhu Yao had no choice but to choose a little angel pattern and asked Du Ningyang to put it on her. The little angel tattoo sticker seemed to have a miraculous effect. Xiao Tao grinned twice after it was put on, and then squinted her eyes and fell asleep obediently.

"She's still cute when she's asleep," Du Ningyang looked at Xiao Tao'er, with a rare maternal love in his eyes.

"Be quiet, don't wake this ancestor up," Zhu Yao lowered her voice, "This place has been open for three months, right? Have you made money?" "

Not yet," not to mention that she fishes for three days and slacks off for two days, drives away customers, and sometimes doesn't charge money, giving it away for free.

"So you came back to do charity and contribute to Huaicheng landlords and water and electricity," Zhu Yao said mercilessly, "What a waste of money. Oh - are you busy with love?"

Du Ningyang pulled the corner of his mouth and refused to answer her question, "Did you come here to annoy me today?"

"Humph, your kindness is taken for granted," Zhu Yao curved his eyes, "I came to invite you!"

"Why invite me?" Can it be a good thing?

"But I also need your help." I knew it was not that good.

"Don't beat around the bush."

​​Zhu Yao lowered his throat and "coughed" twice, "I want to buy a comprehensive beauty instrument."

After the age of 25, Du Ningyang would also buy some row lights and small beauty instruments, and occasionally go to Daixi store to rub eyelashes and wash his face. He expressed his understanding of Zhu Yao's beauty needs.

"Buy it. What can I do for you?"

"I'm not talking about those small beauty devices for home use, idiot," Zhu Yao walked to the computer with ease and successfully guessed Du Ningyang's power-on password. He opened the browser and started searching for "comprehensive beauty device", pointing to the large machine on the screen and said, "I'm talking about this kind, the one used to open a shop."

"You want to open a shop?"

"I have this idea." " Are you

not going to run the tea shop anymore?"

"Not that I'm not going to do it... Isn't online shopping very popular now? Zhu He said he wanted to switch the tea business to e-commerce and do live streaming on the Internet, so the store is empty."

"It's so expensive for a beauty salon to use this machine, and they make a lot of money. I thought I would be giving money to them anyway, so I might as well buy one and put it in the store and run it slowly. I calculated that if I charge according to the market price, I can get my money back in about a year and a half if I can stabilize it."

Zhu Yao grew up in a business family and has an active mind. He has never worked after graduation, but he lives a very comfortable life and can always find some small opportunities to earn pocket money.

"What do you need me to do?"

"First, I'm here to ask you if you want to join us. One machine costs 600,000 yuan. You, me and Xu Zhaolin will each pay 200,000 yuan, and I'll operate it. You don't have to pay for the rent, just pay me a management fee on a monthly basis. The cost is the salary and training fee for hiring a professional nurse. The money earned will be divided equally. We'll sign a contract and follow the contract."

"Where will the customers come from? It's at least one or two thousand yuan for a session. Where do so many customers who are willing to spend money come

from?" "Don't consider young people. You can go to my mom's place to pick up some middle-aged and elderly customers. Regular customers can bring regular customers. It's slow. They love beauty now, and their pensions are too much to spend. I've also considered looking for resources at Xu Zhaolin's yoga studio. A class there costs hundreds of yuan."

"That makes sense," Du Ningyang was tempted. "I'll think about it. Second, what?"

"Second, I want to see if it's convenient for you to ask Wen Xu. He may have a way to buy these equipment."

No one knows where Mr. Zhu Yao got such a good memory. He remembered that the girls from Huaili said that all the medical equipment in Huaicheng was imported by the Wen family.

"I'll ask him, but he doesn't keep in touch with his family much now, so I may not be able to get the answer."

"Oh my god," Zhu Yao put the business aside again, "Did he really break up with his family for you? I remember the Chinese New Year wasn't over yet, it's been winter and summer, and he hasn't contacted his family?"

"...It's not all because of me, it's a long story," Zhu Yao's expression was too gossipy, Du Ningyang pushed her away, "Don't let your imagination run wild."

"Tsk, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it yourself," Zhu Yao said with a smile, "You, you, look at you now, your face is ruddy, you are full of energy, you are the most comfortable person I have ever seen after divorce."

Du Ningyang glanced at her unhappily, "Illiterate, this sentence is not used like this."

"Anyway, that's what I mean," Zhu Yao saw a screen added behind the tattoo bed, and through the hollow pattern, she saw that there were cabinets added behind it, "What's in the back?"

"My mother's junk, some home appliances and kitchen utensils, and a small refrigerator for drinks."

"Do you have ice cola?"

"Yes, go get it yourself if you want to drink."

Zhu Yao was not polite, and walked behind the screen as if it was her own home, squatted down and pulled the refrigerator door, and saw the menu for today's dinner posted on the door.

The handwriting was neat and elegant, and it was written stroke by stroke: grilled steak, Caesar salad, spaghetti with meat sauce.

"You guys are having Western food tonight? And it's Western style," Zhu Yao said as if she had discovered a new continent. She stopped drinking Coke and squatted to study. "Isn't this your handwriting? - Written by Wen Xu? Oh my God, the young master wouldn't cook for you..."

"It's like this," Du Ningyang didn't hide it. "Cooking is his latest hobby."

"You two are no different from just living your daily life now. What a great love - to let the young master, who has never done any housework, cook for my good sister."

Zhu Yao walked back to the sofa with a steaming Coke and said earnestly, "Love can indeed change a person. My dears, you make me believe in love again."

"Do you want to stay and eat with us? I'll ask Wen Xu to buy some more dishes."

"My daughter and my daughter's daughter dare not," Zhu Yao said seriously. "Western food should be served with candlelight and red wine. The atmosphere will be hot and there will definitely be a romantic and passionate sequel. If there is a crying child and her talkative mother present at this time, it will surely ruin the atmosphere."

"You are quite self-aware."

"I was young once too, and I had a brief period of passionate love, okay?"

"Oh yeah," Du Ningyang suddenly remembered that Zhu Yao knew a senior who stayed at Huaimei Academy, "Are you still in touch with that senior brother Gao? Can you help me find out which schools in the country offer special effects makeup majors? They don't have to be top schools, but the ones that are recognized by film companies and crews." "

Okay, I'll find time to have dinner with him, and if it's convenient for you, you can go together. But what are you going to do now?" Zhu Yao looked around, "Are you planning to give up your tattoo career?" "

No, what are you thinking about? It's Wen Xu who wants to learn this. It's too expensive to study abroad, and it won't work without systematic learning."

"Got it, oh."

"oh what?"

"I'm touched!"

"Moved by what?"

"Haven't you noticed," Zhu Yao patted Du Ningyang's shoulder, "Now, you are thinking about him and he is thinking about you. I have a feeling that this is a very good and positive relationship, and it will have very good results."

Xiao Tao'er, who was dozing off in the corner, woke up somehow. She looked at Zhu Yao and Du Ningyang with a smile in her eyes, and said in a baby voice: "

It will produce very sweet candies."

Zhu Yao scooped Xiao Tao'er into his arms, patted her on the left and right cheeks, and raised his eyebrows at Du Ningyang, "Look at this girl, just like me, she is very good at talking, right? - She has touched the heart of her aunt."

"Aunt?" Du Ningyang took the opportunity to correct her, "While our Tao'er is still young, you have to change your name to 'godmother'."

"Zhu Zhu will faint in the toilet after hearing this."

"It's not a sin for a man to cry."
