Chapter 154: Chapter 152: Buying the Tea Shop (First Order of Four More)
"Last time you said you wanted to open a tea shop, didn’t you? I came across one by chance, and the weather is nice today, let’s go check it out!"
Lu Xuezhen knocked on Qin Qin’s door and leaned against the doorframe, speaking to Qin Qin who was reading inside.
Several days had passed since the Heavenly Medicine Clinic opened, and several days since that day as well, Mo Yunchen had taken her back home and then had to leave Chuandu City urgently for some pressing matters.
In the past few days, he would send a few messages every day, making her almost believe the man really had nothing better to do, but she wouldn’t reply to him—who did he think he was, acting like a rogue! It also allowed her mixed and shy feelings to calm down when facing him, she simply felt that wasn’t her!
The end-of-term exams were approaching, and recently, due to the busy business at the Heavenly Medicine Clinic, she had neglected the fact that she was still a student; she then told Doctor Bai to turn away her patients and those seeking fortune-telling, deciding to wait until after the exams were over.
She had been quite free these few days, doing nothing but going to school and reading at home.
Oh, and it has to be mentioned, she had now vaguely become the object of everyone’s admiration in class. The classmates who had come to support the opening day were all excitedly thanking her, saying that her Ice Muscle Paste and the pills she concocted were very effective. Within just a few days, several mothers had all their facial spots and scars disappear, and the fathers who had taken the pills felt refreshed in body and mind, planning to go back and purchase more when they could. Hearing this, others also encouraged their parents to visit, which made her quite busy during this period, as the Heavenly Medicine Clinic’s business grew ever busier!
Lu Xuezhen even suggested that she should start her own pharmaceutical factory to supply the medicine, as one small pharmacy simply wasn’t enough. She pondered this idea for a long time and decided to wait until the new year to discuss these matters.
She indeed needed to expand her influence rather than remain content in a cramped space, not wanting those past events to happen again!
"Yeah! Let’s go!" Having read for a good while, she indeed felt a bit uncomfortable, so she decided to go out for a stroll.
Lee Fong and her father Qin An’s relationship had significantly improved since that day, and Lu Xuezhen had noticed this, so the two of them sneakily went out, leaving some space for Lee Fong and Qin An.
The shop that Lu Xuezhen was interested in was located at a bustling crossroads. Though it wasn’t very large, it had two floors and had been newly renovated not too long ago, with an elegant and beautiful layout, giving off a very comfortable vibe.
The owner was a woman in her thirties, beautiful, but with a faint sadness between her brows.
The shop had a "for transfer" sign for several months, but because her asking price was too high, it had not been sold.
Qin Qin quite liked the tea shop, and the decoration style also met her expectations.
Seeing Qin Qin’s interest, Lu Xuezhen spoke to the landlady, "Madam, name your price!"
The landlady hesitated a moment before speaking, "The market value of this tea shop is over three million, and the recent renovations cost me over a million. If you want it, five million is enough."
Originally, she had been asking for five million eight hundred thousand, but there had been no buyers. She wanted to leave this place of sorrow as soon as possible, and that’s why she quoted such a low price today.
Lu Xuezhen glances at Qin Qin; five million was indeed not expensive.
Qin Qin looked at the landlady and asked softly, "Do you want to leave this place, madam? Planning to go abroad?"
The landlady was startled, then shocked, looking at Qin Qin, "How do you know?"
"Madam, you are newly pregnant, and you best not travel around too much. You are frail, and you should also keep a good mood recently, so your child will be healthier!"
As soon as Qin Qin finished speaking, the landlady stood up from her seat, shocked as she looked at Qin Qin, "What did you say? I’m pregnant?"
Her eyes reddened and tears flowed down as she covered her stomach, whispering lowly, "I have my own child?"
Lu Xuezhen watched the proprietress’ slightly distraught appearance and smiled, "The person in front of you is a very impressive healer, and she also knows how to tell fortunes. If the proprietress doesn’t believe it, you can go to the hospital to check."
The proprietress wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, then sat down, "Are you telling the truth? I have been feeling a bit sleepy and nauseous lately, but it’s impossible. I went to the hospital before for tests, and I simply can’t get pregnant. How could I possibly have conceived his child shortly after he passed away?"
Having been married to her husband for over ten years, she had transformed from a hazy young girl into a woman. She always dreamed of having a child of their own, but when she went to the hospital for tests, it struck her like a bolt from the blue, telling her that she couldn’t get pregnant. Her husband didn’t leave her, instead, he cherished her even more, not letting her blame herself for being unable to have children. Their love grew stronger, until a year ago when her husband was diagnosed with nasal cancer, and passed away a month ago. She was utterly heartbroken, and even wanted to transfer the newly renovated tea shop, ready to leave this place and start anew.
"Who said you can’t get pregnant? Stretch out your hand!"
The proprietress obediently extended her hand to Qin Qin, who reached out to take her pulse. After a while, she withdrew her hand, "You have a severe case of coldness in the uterus, which is why you haven’t had a child for so many years. Now, just after your husband has gone, it can be considered as leaving you with a memory. You are two months pregnant, it’s best to keep your mood cheerful, let the past go, face the future, you still have a child waiting for you to care for."
"How did you know my husband died? Can you really tell fortunes?!" the proprietress asked excitedly, grabbing Qin Qin’s hand.
Qin Qin just smiled without saying a word, and the proprietress stared at Qin Qin intently, admiring the elegance and nobility that radiated from her face. After pondering for a while, she then said, "I’m willing to sell you this tea shop for four million and five hundred thousand, but I hope you can tell my fortune..."
"Sure, go ahead!"
...
Stepping out of the tea shop, Lu Xuezhen gave Qin Qin a thumbs up with a smile, "Qin Qin, you are really amazing."
Qin Qin glanced at Lu Xuezhen and smiled softly, "What do you want to say?"
"You also know what I want to say? Gosh, can’t I keep any secrets from you? Actually, I just wanted to ask why the proprietress gave you such a big discount, just to find someone." This was the part that Lu Xuezhen didn’t understand.
Qin Qin looked into the distance where pedestrians were hurrying by, caught in the rhythm of the city, and she smiled faintly.
"She’s just helping her husband fulfill a wish, that’s all!"
"Mm, can she really wait for that person here at this tea shop?"
"Mm! Yeah, but it will be a few years though."
"That’s good for you, got the tea shop and got an extra hand! The proprietress seems very shrewd at a glance, I think she’s much more capable than me."
"You’re amazing too!"
It’s just that you don’t know yet, years from now, you will be a very impressive person!
"Hehe, forget it, I just hope to stay by your side, I don’t want anything else!"
"No, Sister Xuezhen, by saying that I have to wonder whether or not you’re falling for me!"
Lu Xuezhen stopped in her tracks, her face revealing a streak of annoyance, "Qin Qin, you’ve gone bad!"
Qin Qin chuckled, then suddenly looked into the distance, her expression narrowing.
