Money is not omnipotent, but without it, it is absolutely impossible. This sentence is vulgar, but many times, we have to admit its correctness.

If Katherine was rich today, she would not have encountered such a thing: On the other hand, if Gu Luobei's credit card today did not have the 480,000 US dollars that Apple had just called, even if he had reason enough, he would not have been able to humiliate the clerk so directly.

After leaving Louis-Vuitton, all the good moods of the three of them were destroyed. Even lunch was unfair, but at least one o'clock, Teddy and Bell proposed to go home, and Catherine and Bell immediately nodded in agreement.

After returning home, Catherine Yibei sat down on the chair and couldn't wait to ask, "How much does that set of clothes cost just now?" The expression on his face was full of heartache, but there was no trace of blame. Gu Luobei knew that Catherine Yibei was feeling sorry for the hard-earned money he had just squandered.

"Ten thousand five." Gu Luobei did not intend to hide the money. Of course, he knew that it was a considerable amount of money. The 11th dry cleaner did not have that much monthly turnover, but the clerk insulted Catherine and Bell, which was something that Gu Luobei could not bear. He could earn it again when the money was gone, but he only had one of his most beloved mothers in his life.

"Catherine, don't worry." Teddy Bell poured a glass of warm water and comforted her. "Bei has made some money recently." Teddy Bell looked at Gu Luobei, got a confirmed look, and told the deal between Eleven Studios and Apple, Fremantle Media.

Actually, Katherine and Bell knew about these things, but she only knew about this, but she never asked about the specific content of the matter. The two sons were already mature enough that she didn't need to worry about them. Moreover, the sons had reported some major issues with her, so she did not interfere too much. Before, Katherine and Bell knew that their two sons were writing some plans and collaborating with several companies, but she did not expect that these two plans were so big and so valuable.

"You mean, one plan sold for five million dollars" The one plan sold for eight million British list?" Catherine and Bell's shock was uncovered without any concealment, and it was clear between the creepy eyebrows.

Gu Luobei carefully looked at his mother's hands tightly held on her knees. Although time has not made Catherine and Bell old, the heavy life has made those slender and fair hands full of scars. The scalding red mark on the back of his right hand is not very obvious, but Gu Luobei remembers it very clearly. It was burned by a high-temperature iron. These are the marks left by more than ten years of life on his body.

From the moment Gu Luobei was born, this family was born by Catherine and Bell alone. Even Teddy and Bell, who were two years old at the time, had no impression of their father. The Bell family has always had only one parent, Catherine and Bell. Eighteen years, from the age of twenty-two to forty, the most beautiful scenery of a woman's life has quietly passed away. Whenever she thinks of this fact, Gu Luobei feels an indelible sadness in her heart.

Although Gu Luobei has always been unrestrained, free and unruly, he always has a position in his heart that belongs to Catherine, Bell and Teddy, Bell, because he knows very well that without his mother and brother, his life will not be so comfortable.

"No, no, no, to be precise, forty percent of the 4.8 million British List are not mine." Gu Luobei smiled and corrected the mistake in Catherine-Bell's words. "However, I only have 480,000 US dollars in my hand. As for the 200 British List, I will not pay the first part until the end of August. The remaining 200 British List will be until October." This money is really not much for the real rich people. Gu Luobei speculated that it was nothing to the family before Catherine-Bell got married, but it was a huge sum of money for the Bell family, which consisted of the three of them. This is the largest income since Catherine-Bell used her shoulders to support the family. Therefore, in addition to being full of incredible things, Catherine-Bell's eyes were also rolling in their eyes.

"In addition, there are three movies that should be paid in total for five million, and they will be paid at the beginning of next year." This is the "Detective Illusion" of Teddy-Bell's voice. The pay is one million. The "Sniper Telephone Booth" and "White Night Chase" are both two million. Although the pay is not paid immediately, it will be paid before the movie is released.

"There are three singles to be sold, and the first revenue will be here in the past two days, but it is estimated that it is not much, it is just sales revenue in April and May.

"Catherine, our family's life will get better little by little. You know, your son is now a best-selling singer. His singles are still in the top ten on the Billboard these two days."

Gu Luobei's words were very relaxed and lively, but they did not make Catherine smile, but instead made the crystal tears slide down.

Gu Luobei hugged his mother in his arms with his right hand. His strong arms made Catherine and Bell feel a sense of peace of mind. After so many years of hard work, his son finally grew up and his strong body was enough to shelter her from the wind and rain. The burden that the household had been carrying for so many years was finally able to be removed. This made Catherine and Bell feel relieved, and the bitterness of years turned into tears, bursting out in the warmth in his younger son's arms.

Teddy Bell sat on his mother's left side and gently patted his mother's shoulder with his right hand. "Catherine, what happened in Louis Vuitton at noon today will never happen in the future."

Gu Luobei raised his head and his eyes touched Teddy and Bell's eyes. The eyes were also a little red at this time, and some wetness could be seen vaguely. Louis Vuitton's affairs were just a fuse and were not a big deal. But the point is that from today on, from Katherine and Bell's forty-year-old birthday, the new life of the Bell family is about to begin, and everything will be fine.

"Mom, Teddy and I want to discuss something with you." Gu Luobei patted Catherine and Bell's shoulder lightly, his tone was soft, but cautious.

When Katherine Bell heard the words "Mom", she knew that there was something to say. After being strong for so many years, Katherine Bell's xing style had long become extremely determined. She just cried bitterly, but because all the hardships over the past eighteen years had passed, she sighed in an instant. She had not shed tears for too long, and even forgot the taste of crying, so she was a little disobedient. Now that she knew that there was something to say, Katherine Bell quickly packed up her emotions, sat up straight, took the tissue from Teddy Bell, and wiped the embarrassment on her face.

"We want to sell the dry cleaning shop." Gu Luobei's opening remark surprised Catherine and Bell, but she was just stunned for a moment, but she did not rush to ask about the reason, but quickly calmed down and waited quietly for her son to explain the reason.

"Aren't you very interested in designing clothes and sewing clothes?" Gu Luobei continued to say that the two brothers had discussed this plan long before recording the Oprah talk show. Although the conditions are not very mature now, at least the cost is still quite tight, but the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time and the road has to be taken step by step. Gu Luobei feels that it is time to start preparing now.

“We sold the dry cleaning shop and then raised a fund to open a design studio for you. You can do your own clothing design, and then build your own brand and open a store.

"Design studio?" Katherine Yibeier found her voice, and she also had some hoarseness that she had just cried. "Can I do it? Besides, factories, stores, sales..." Katherine Yibeier's eyes and tone were not very confident. She had been studying design since she learned about it.

Many, many years have passed since the life of learning to sew.

"You can do it!" The one who took over the conversation this time was Teddy and Bell. He had a good idea in this regard, so he was also investigating. "You forgot that the clothes you two of us have been sewn by you since we were young. You made them the clothes you attended the Sundance Film Festival last time, and they were also praised by many fashion reporters! Didn't Anne's dresses to attend the premiere this time also sewn by you?" To be honest, Katherine and Bell are absolutely indispensable. It's just that the hardships of many years of life erased the ambition of youth and youth. "As for factories, stores, and sales, we both brothers will investigate them. However, we are all laymen and found manufacturers and stores, but you still have to check them personally.

Although there was still some hesitation in Catherine-Bell's eyes, the gods on his face had begun to shine. Gu Luobei knew that the two brothers' ideas this time were correct. Deep in Catherine-Bell's heart, he must still have the dream of a designer. Since that's the case, why didn't the two brothers realize this dream for their mother?

"Mom, think about it clearly. The design studio will not make money in the early stage, and it will be very hard. Designing clothes, running the manufacturer, supervising the production of clothes, including managing the store, are both physical and energy-consuming things. Perhaps, it will be more tiring than the dry cleaning shop just started." Gu Luobei and Teddy and Bell considered all aspects of this matter, and finally made a consensus decision. Obviously, it was not reckless, but really considered Katherine and Bell. "Of course, compared to the dry cleaning shop just started, this time, Teddy and I can provide some help and help you reduce some burden."

After saying that, Gu Luobei took out the credit card just now and placed it in front of Catherine Yibeier. "This is the birthday gift that Teddy and I gave you together. Mom, I love you."

"Happy birthday, I love you." Teddy and Bell also looked at Catherine and Bell with a smile. This gift was decided by the two brothers for a long time before they decided. It was also the first real gift they gave to their mother after they became adults.

The fourth update today, Huh, the big explosion of 12,000 is over, haha, thank you again for your support from the family.@.
