After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 424 Old Mrs. Su is ignorant
The other middle-aged women immediately came over for a taste test, and they all ate with great relish.

The older women had never tasted anything so good before, and they pushed Old Mrs. Wang and Su Xiuer aside.

They started tasting the food, and that's how hot pot is. After finishing one piece of meat, they immediately wanted to cook a second piece. The main thing is that they couldn't stop eating.

Other people who were watching from outside also slowly walked in and started to sample the food for free. As a result, these passersby praised it highly.

After trying the food, some people sat down and ordered a whole table of hot pot.

The selection of dishes was very comprehensive, and everyone was very happy to be able to eat such a delicious hot pot. This was truly a first for them all.

People who usually come here to eat hot pot are usually families, enjoying a happy time together.

Su Xiuer and Old Lady Wang were pushed to the side, and they watched awkwardly as those people took over the table and ate all the hot pot they had ordered.

While mentally unleashing a torrent of abuse on Su Xiaoxiao, he thought, "We came to this hot pot restaurant to celebrate my son's grand opening. We're eating at my son's restaurant! Look at you, are you afraid we'll bankrupt the business?"

However, since they were in their own hot pot restaurant, they were a little embarrassed to speak up.

Su Xiangdong was so busy he was practically running around like headless chickens. More and more people were coming to try the food, some just to join the fun, while others immediately set up a table and started cooking. Before lunchtime, the hot pot restaurant was already packed, making the surrounding restaurants extremely envious. They thought to themselves, "This hot pot restaurant is really something to be jealous of. Why? How did their restaurant manage to be so full on its very first day? It's truly baffling."

Anyway, there are all sorts of people here, and there are plenty of people who are jealous, envious, or want to learn from others.

However, in the end, this was quite amazing. On the first day of opening, Su Xiangdong's hot pot restaurant saw a surge in revenue. It was initially thought that the opening promotions were the reason why people were coming to eat so enthusiastically.

The result was not as expected. Even after the prices were restored to normal in the following days, customers continued to flock to the restaurant. Every day, as soon as the hot pot restaurant opened, people came in droves to eat hot pot. However, by then, the prices had already returned to normal. This showed that these people did not care about whether the hot pot restaurant had any promotional activities; they simply liked to eat hot pot.

After hearing the news, Su Xiaoxiao was quite happy, saying that Su Xiangdong had finally made something of himself.

The revenue from Su Xiangdong's hot pot restaurant is split 30/70 with Su Xiaoxiao's, since he only manages it temporarily, while Su Xiaoxiao provides all the other equipment and business strategies.

He's only a manager at best, but that's already pretty good; he's very satisfied.

These monthly sales figures already amounted to a considerable sum, and he couldn't be happier. Looking at his bulging wallet, how could he not be joyful? Ultimately, making money brings men the greatest sense of happiness; nothing else matters.

Su Xiangdong had finally come to understand these principles, but he realized that he had been a bit too foolish before. He spent his days idly, either going out to cause trouble or coming home to beat his wife.

Now he's a small business owner, earning a lot of money and having a job that many people envy. How come he didn't know about such a good job before? It can make a lot of money, and most importantly, there are no trial and error costs.

He only needed to operate the business as Su Xiaoxiao taught him, and he didn't need to worry about the profits or losses. He just needed to put money into his pocket. How come he only just found such a good thing now? This was Su Xiangdong's inner thought. In the end, he was still quite grateful to Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ping'an had always supported him, coming over to help out whenever they had time, and offering assistance when they saw areas where Su Xiangdong could improve.

This is where he differs from Su Xiangdong's mother, Old Madam Wang, and the others; they didn't eat well on the opening day.

After that, Mrs. Wang brought her daughter Su Xiuer to their restaurant three more times, and they ate hot pot three times in total without getting tired of it.

They come and don't help with anything. They just sit there, order a table full of delicious food, eat it all, and then leave.

Su Xiangdong was quite angry about this. But it was his mother, and he still had to see her when he got home that night. Could he really say, "Mom, please don't keep eating at my shop!"

He couldn't bring himself to say those words.

Old Mrs. Wang's emotional intelligence is truly worrying. She can see that her son's attitude towards her is getting increasingly strange because she keeps going to his shop to freeload. But she doesn't realize it and still thinks that she's actually there to support her son.

Her son must be quite happy.

Old Man Su had also advised Old Lady Wang not to keep going to other people's shops and causing trouble for her son.

However, Old Mrs. Wang disagreed. She even brought up the fact that when Su Wangcai gave her living expenses a few days ago, he gave them directly to Old Man Su and didn't give them to her.

Old Mrs. Wang was furious about this. She thought to herself, "Are they not even going to ask me to approve living expenses anymore? Why is this happening? After all, she's still the one in charge of the household, isn't she?"
The practice of Mrs. Wang managing the household finances has been the way it has been since ancient times, and the family has become accustomed to it.

Su Ping'an always gives money to his family directly to his mother, Old Madam Wang, every month.

"Wouldn't this break the rules?" Old Mrs. Wang was furious. She even went to Su Xiangdong's hot pot restaurant to complain to him about it.

Su Xiangdong certainly didn't want his mother to keep coming over to talk to him about family matters. After all, they were out in public, and Su Xiangdong was now the owner of a hot pot restaurant. He felt he was losing face in front of his newly hired employees.

But Old Mrs. Wang didn't care about all that. Once she got to Su Xiangdong's hot pot restaurant, she started talking at length about all the troubles in her family.

Su Xiangdong couldn't do anything about his mother. She was the only son in the family who was most sympathetic to Old Madam Wang. Now, Su Xiangdong was annoyed with his mother. Every day after the business opened, he was afraid to see his mother and sister appear again.

Su Xiangdong's hot pot restaurant business is getting better and better, and his career is starting to go smoothly.

No one expected that Su Xiangdong, who used to always cause trouble for his family, would now run a hot pot restaurant in town and completely transform into a small business owner.
