The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 2048: Taking the Initiative to Invite Her

Su Yunjin first selected some items outside, and then went with Mrs. You to the warehouse to make a selection.

In the end, Su Yunjin was satisfied with choosing two boxes of pearls, all of which were bright in color, large, and round.

Out of consideration for Mrs. Qin, Mrs. You offered Su Yunjin a reasonable price; Su Yunjin did not bargain with her. After purchasing the pearls, Mrs. You also gifted some shells to Su Yunjin. The beautiful little shells could be made into bracelets or used to decorate other items, which Su Yunjin found delightful.

Leaving the large boat that sold pearls in a good mood, Mrs. Qin told Su Yunjin that several nearby large boats were gathering places for pearl merchants, where one could buy excellent pearls.

As Su Yunjin hadn’t seen the other boats, she suggested they take a look. Mrs. Qin, who had brought Little Tangtang out to play and had no other plans, went along with Su Yunjin for a stroll.

Gu Ya followed behind his little wife but did not stay too close. His little wife was now close to Mrs. Qin, and since the two women were shopping, Gu Ya didn’t think it appropriate to stay too near, so he followed at a moderate distance.

Su Yunjin and Mrs. Qin visited all the nearby boats, and as Little Tangtang declared she was hungry, Su Yunjin suggested they dine at a nearby restaurant. However, Little Tangtang cheerfully invited Su Yunjin to dine at their home.

"Aunt Su, come have dinner at Tangtang’s house," said Little Tangtang, then turned her gaze to Mrs. Qin, "Mother, shall we invite Aunt Su to our home for dinner?"

Su Yunjin thought Little Tangtang genuinely wanted to invite her to their house, which was not close to the Qin Residence. She was about to persuade Little Tangtang to eat at a restaurant near the dock when Mrs. Qin smiled at her and said, "Sister Su, our Qin family has several restaurants near the dock; why not eat at one of our Qin family’s restaurants?"

"Aunt Su, my parents have opened three restaurants here; let’s eat at the largest one," Little Tangtang, who had visited before, knew which three were owned by the Qin family and was aware that her parents ran many restaurants in town. Aunt Pingping had told her that the Qin family’s restaurants were plentiful not only in town but also in Yangcheng.

Su Yunjin was a bit surprised, not expecting Mrs. Qin to have opened restaurants near the dock, but she quickly understood. Mrs. Qin’s family business was substantial, and such a location was profitable; Mrs. Qin and Mr. Qin, being intelligent, of course, wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

Since Mrs. Qin had a restaurant here, if Su Yunjin declined, it would be discourteous, so she and Gu Ya joined Mrs. Qin to the restaurant the Qin family owned nearby.

Mrs. Qin led Su Yunjin to a clean and spacious private room, which was tastefully and simply decorated, evidently an upper room of the restaurant.

"Sister Su, Mr. Gu, what do you like to eat? Here is the restaurant menu, feel free to order whatever you like, no need to be polite with me," Mrs. Qin handed the menu to Su Yunjin and Gu Ya.

Gu Ya, who was not particular about food, left the decision to his little wife.

Instead of looking at the menu, Su Yunjin suggested to Mrs. Qin, "I heard the best food at dockside restaurants is the fish, shrimp, and crab from the sea. How about we have those today?"

Mrs. Qin had no objections, "Sister Su, let’s go with your suggestion; we’ll have fish, shrimp, and crab, and I’ll also have the restaurant send over some of our signature dishes."
