After the system ran, I took off with my family

When Liu Xiaohua heard what Li Chuncao said, she looked up at the direction where Yunniang left and said casually, "I didn't pay attention. What's wrong?"

After saying that, he lowered his head and picked up the beans in the winnowing basket. Some of the beans were infested with insects, so he had to pick out the insect-infested beans and leave the intact ones for bean seeds.

Seeing her perfunctory attitude, Li Chuncao curled her lips, rolled her eyes, and said unhappily, "Nothing, just continue picking your beans."

At this time, a woman leaned over, her eyes sparkling with excitement, "I saw it, it came from the Lin family."

Li Chuncao was so excited to see someone who understood her, as if she had met a close friend. "Isn't it? I said I was right. Hey, Qiuju, why do you think she was carrying an empty basket?"

"Maybe he wanted to go to the Lin family to beg for food, but was rejected, so he came back with an empty basket." Another head popped out from the side and said excitedly.

"That's impossible. Even if they really went to beg for food, the Lin family wouldn't be that stingy." Someone quickly refuted this speculation.

At this time, Li Chuncao and Li Qiuju were surrounded by several women who came to join in the fun, and they were all talking about their own guesses.

At this time, a woman put down her needlework and said loudly, "Don't make wild guesses. When I went out just now, I saw Yunniang carrying a basket of wild vegetables and walking towards the Lin family. Maybe she was going to deliver the wild vegetables."

Li Qiuju curled her lips and said, "She has to rely on the village chief for support, and she still has the leisure to send wild vegetables to the Lin family. Who knows what she is thinking? I guess she wants to curry favor with the Lin family."

“That’s right…”

The woman who had greeted Yunniang saw that their words were becoming more and more outrageous, so she had no choice but to put away her needle and thread, picked up her small stool and left.

.......

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Today, Lin Shuyue rode a horse to the county town early in the morning, while Qinghe rode a horse with Qingzhi following behind him.

Yesterday, Manager Hu sent a message saying that the restaurant has been renovated and the smell has almost gone away.

"Miss, we don't have a sign for our store yet." At the entrance of the restaurant, Manager Hu pointed to the empty space above the door.

Lin Shuyue was looking at the doors and windows carefully. Upon hearing this, she replied, "I've already thought of a name for the store. I'll give it to you later." After that, she walked into the lobby.

The seats in the lobby have been separated by hollow carved partitions according to the drawings, forming a small space.

The table was specially made by a carpenter in the shape of a fan. When put together, it becomes a round table. The middle of the round table is empty and can be used to place a stove.

After checking the lobby, she went up to the second floor.

There are eight private rooms on the second floor. When you enter each room, you will see an elegant screen. After passing the screen, you will find the dining area.

On the left side of the door is a basin rack, and on the right side is a wooden floor rack where guests can hang their cloaks or capes.

There is a tea table and a few chairs next to the window. After eating hot pot, you can make some tea by the window to relieve the greasiness.

After confirming that there was no problem, she went downstairs and walked towards the backyard.

Apart from the addition of a wooden shelf, there were no other changes in the large kitchen. The largest of the four rooms in the backyard was used as a warehouse, and a new cellar was dug underground. The other three rooms were intended to be reserved for the shop assistants to live in.

Back in the lobby, Lin Shuyue looked at the bright and transparent lobby, as well as the doors, windows, counters and stair railings that looked brand new after being painted with tung oil. She nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, Manager Hu. Go back to the mansion and ask Accountant Wu for money later to pay the craftsmen."

Since the appointment of an accountant, Lin Shuyue gave a sum of money to Accountant Wu, which was specifically used for the expenses of the hot pot restaurant.

After visiting the restaurant, she took Qingzhi and Qinghe to the pawnshop and bought ten young men.

Hotpot was a unique business in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the business was booming, there might be people coveting it. She didn't want things like what was written in the novels of her previous life, where bad guys bribed waiters or cooks with silver to get recipes, to happen. So she would rather spend more silver to hire people to ensure that the entire store was occupied by her people.

After returning to Jing'an Lane, he handed the ten people he bought to Manager Hu for arrangement, and then asked Qinggu to get on the carriage, taking a basket of spring bamboo shoots and a basket of wild vegetables to the county government office.

When they arrived at the county government office, Wu Yuanan happened to be free that day and was accompanying He Yujiao to visit the garden.

"Brother Wu, Sister Yujiao, these are the spring bamboo shoots and wild vegetables that we just dug this morning. I brought them for you to try." Lin Shuyue said with a smile, pointing to the two baskets on the ground.

He Yujiao excitedly asked the maid to take the basket to the kitchen, and then she took Lin Shuyue to the backyard, "Ayue, you came at the right time. The day before yesterday, a new batch of Shu brocade arrived at the Shijinfang. I bought a few pieces and specially reserved one for you. Let me take you to have a look."

Wu Yuanan looked at the two people's backs as they left, feeling a little depressed and helpless. Then he turned around and went to the kitchen silently, instructing them to prepare a few of Lin Shuyue's favorite dishes for lunch. Since she had dined there several times, the cooks knew her taste.

"Do you like it?" He Yujiao pointed at the patterned goose yellow Shu brocade in the maid's hand and looked at Lin Shuyue with anticipation.

She had spent a long time picking this. Ah Yue has fair skin, and she will definitely look good in the goose yellow dress.

Lin Shuyue touched it and said happily, "I like it very much, thank you sister-in-law." This Shu brocade is breathable and feels good, making it perfect for summer wear.

After lunch, Lin Shuyue explained her purpose, "Brother Wu, the hot pot restaurant has been renovated. Can you help write a plaque for the hot pot restaurant?"

"Okay, what's the name of the hot pot restaurant?" Wu Yuanan agreed immediately.

"Xunweilou." This is the name she had thought of for a long time.

"Ayue, when will the hot pot restaurant open?" He Yujiao asked.

Lin Shuyue poured her a cup of tea and blinked, "It will open in three days, sister-in-law, you have to come and support us!"

"Okay, I will definitely come to A Yue's restaurant. As your sister-in-law, I will definitely support you." He Yujiao tapped her nose, her eyes full of pampering.

Wu Yuanan on the side thought for a moment and said, "Ayue, I'll have someone make the plaque and send it to you right after I write it, so you don't have to find someone else to make it."

"Thank you, Brother Wu." Lin Shuyue agreed without hesitation.

After the plaque issue was finalized, Lin Shuyue returned to Jing'an Lane. At this time, Lin An and his wife, as well as Lin Shuyuan, also entered the city.

Over the next three days, the family confirmed the source of the ingredients, the division of labor among the store staff, the menu, the price of the hot pot, etc.

......

It was a sunny day. Lin Shuyue's family wore new clothes and came to the door of the restaurant. The plaque had been delivered yesterday and was covered with a red cloth.

Shopkeeper Hu was standing at the door with eight waiters, but the smile on his face seemed forced.

Seeing the masters coming, he hurried to greet them, and then whispered to Lin Shuyue: "Miss, the auspicious time is almost here, but the gate is still empty."
