Xiao Qiao enters the farm gate

That night, when Qiao Mozheng told Zhang Xia and the others what they were going to load into the car tomorrow, Grandma Li and Li Liang came over together.Qiao Mo thought that if Grandma Li had something to do, she would usually come here during the day, and now she brought Li Liang with her. It was probably because Li Liang had something to do, but it was hard to come alone, so she brought Grandma Li with her.

Sure enough, Li Liang didn't talk nonsense as soon as he came, and said directly: "I found a strange thing in the shop today. It seems that the shopkeeper of the wishful restaurant opposite seems to be a man in his thirties surnamed Chen. At first, he didn't pay attention. It was only after talking with Li Xi that I realized that Li Shuilian hadn't appeared for several days."

"Li Shuilian is gone?" Qiao Mo immediately thought that something might have happened to Li Shuilian, because Li Shuilian is like her, she loves wealth and shows off, and since she has Ruyi Restaurant, she has to walk around it almost every day. Show your ownership.Suddenly he didn't show up for a few days, and the shopkeeper was changed. The details in this are quite intriguing.

Li Liang said again: "Li Xi and I also felt a little strange. We asked around, but no one knew the inside story. Someone also asked the shopkeeper surnamed Chen, but the man said that he didn't know Li Shuilian, and said that the shop was from the beginning to the end. It all belonged to Ma He, the young master of the Ma family. Now that Ma He is getting married, he gave this shop to his new husband who is about to enter. Shopkeeper Chen is a steward of the new husband's dowry, and now he manages this shop. "

"It's not obvious." Aunt Li on the side immediately understood what was going on, and she just sighed when she thought of what might happen to Li Shuilian.

"Will this matter affect our shop?" Li Liang didn't care what happened to Li Shuilian.

Although Qiao Mo didn't know Li Shuilian's current situation, she had heard about Ma He's new husband, Chen Minghao, who was known in the city as a ruthless hottie.

"Of course there will be an impact. Chen Minghao is not a good-tempered man. Even if Li Shuilian manages the shop, he will try his best to do better than Li Shuilian even if he wants to win. So, we have to be careful next. Chen Minghao is just like the Ma family. The purpose does not compromise the means." After Qiao Mo inquired about Chen Minghao, he became vigilant in his heart, so he incited Li Shuilian, not just to annoy him.

It's just that at present, Chen Minghao is more ruthless than expected, and Li Shuilian is probably more ominous than good.

"Don't worry, go and have a look at the shop tomorrow. Even if he plans to do something, he has to wait for him to become Ma's husband." Qiao Mo thought of some things Chen Minghao had done, and his head hurt a little, regardless of the law. What's the bottom line for such a person who can do it regardless of human life?

All of a sudden, there was a crisis in his heart, and he felt that if the other party was allowed to act, his small shop would plummet even if it didn't lose business.

After sending away Aunt Li and Li Liang, Qiao Mo called He Yu and asked him to keep an eye on Chen Minghao from now on, he didn't want to lose Jingzhou carelessly.

Since it was already winter, it was inevitable that getting up early would be chilly, so Qiao Mo waited until Chen Shi before taking the car to the city.Qiao Mo packed up a few changes of clothes, and planned to stay in the shop for two days, and had to do some errands by the way. Before he could go out, Madam Lin came.

I haven't seen Mrs. Lin for a while, and I was really surprised when I saw her suddenly. It's only been so long, and she's actually several years older.It's easy to understand. In the past, Old Mama Lin enjoyed a lot of blessings, and Yingzi did everything. He just cared about making troubles every day. Now that he has no coolies, he has to do everything by himself, and he has been hit by Li Shuilian. How can the two sons have a little leisure?

It deserves it too!

"What's the matter with your successor?" Qiao Mo didn't greet him politely.

After entering the door, Mrs. Lin looked around, but saw that there were several people in the courtyard.Not to mention He Yun and He Yu, Lianjiazi, even Mrs. Liu and Zhang Xia are servants from the high school, and their words and deeds are different from those of the country people, which makes this courtyard house, which is not special at first, also have a strange feeling. The aura, Lin Laomao of the town unknowingly restrained her behavior.

"There is something wrong. It will be your father's birthday in a few days. I came here to tell you that Lin Zheng is not at home. I am afraid that you will not know."

"Thank you for reminding me, I will definitely go to celebrate my birthday on that day." Qiao Mo didn't know what to do last year, but this year, Madam Lin celebrated Father Lin's birthday, probably because she was short of money, and she just wanted to make some money.

After sending away Madam Lin, Qiao Mo went out by car.

When he arrived at the shop, Qiao Mo first asked Liu Shi to invite Shen Feng to come over and lie down. He had to settle the matter of asking him to be the shopkeeper first, so as not to snow one day and block the road into Bucheng and delay the business.In addition, he asked He Yun to find someone with good news in the city, some money, and check the whereabouts of Li Shuilian.

As soon as the order was finished, the shopkeeper of the Juxian Building next door came, obviously because of Situ Xuan's words, he came here to discuss business with him.They all came to the door, and Qiao Mo didn't push the business out, and started discussing it immediately.

Although shopkeeper Lu was here for the first time, he was well prepared, had inquired about the situation in the shop carefully, and knew the taste of all kinds of pastries by heart.Originally he wanted to dip it in sugar, but at the beginning it was agreed that the dipping sugar would only be given to teahouses, and it would be fine to sell it in his own shop, and it would be bad to supply it to others.So shopkeeper Lu asked for small cakes, brown sugar muffins, honey and milk twists, corn cookies and peanut crisps.

Shopkeeper Lu said with a smile: "Our two families are so close. In order to keep fresh, it is better to get up early to pick up the goods every day. If there are not enough goods on the same day, come over to replenish the goods. All of them will be recorded on the account. How about we settle the bill at the end of the month? Considering the relationship between shopkeeper Qiao and the owner, we will calculate according to the selling price in your shop."

Qiao Mo has no objection, although the purchase price of their restaurant is slightly higher than that of the teahouse, but the price is not the same when the customer orders according to the order, and the restaurant still makes money.Although it is more troublesome to pick up the goods every day, it also reduces the pressure accordingly. It is also possible to pay the bill at the end of the month. The restaurant is opened by Situxuan for fun.

"How much does the shopkeeper Lu want?"

"Brown sugar muffins, honey milk twists, and small cakes cost five catties each, and corn biscuits and peanut crisps cost three catties each."

After all, the dim sum in the restaurant is for decoration, and the sales volume is limited, not to mention that there are also a few dim sum that the restaurant itself is good at selling.The order quantity seems to be small, but it is only a daily quantity, and it is also considerable in January.

Negotiate properly, sign the supply contract, and the matter is over.

With more and more supply orders and his own physical inconvenience, Qiao Mo has already planned to teach Zhang Xia the production skills.As soon as Zhang Xiaben came here, he had the skills in his body, and he was easy to master and learn quickly.Secondly, the Liu family's deeds of selling their lives are all held in their own hands, which is the safest.Since Zhang Xia came here, he has been watching from the sidelines, only missing a chance to practice by himself.

After the shopkeeper Lu left, it happened that Liu Shi came back and brought Shen Feng.

"Shopkeeper Qiao, do you have something to ask me?" Shen Feng regards Qiao Mo as a benefactor, and his words and deeds are somewhat respectful.

"There is something to do, and I don't know if you intend it." Qiao Mo didn't go around in circles, and directly said what he wanted, and said: "Although I think you are very suitable, but if you are busy at home and can't afford to be born, that's fine."

After all, the specific situation of Shen Feng's family is unknown.

Shen Feng is not in a hurry right now, but more wages can make the family more comfortable after all, and besides, Qiao Mo is kind to him, and he finally has someone who can help, and he is unwilling to refuse.So as soon as Qiao Mo said, he nodded in agreement, and when he heard Qiao Mo's concern, he smiled wryly.

"Shopkeeper Qiao is probably curious about my origin, but he upholds the way of a gentleman and never asks more questions. Shen is really grateful." Shen Feng felt that if he became someone else's shopkeeper, he must let people know more about him before he can rest assured, let alone Qiao Mo was different from others, so he explained what happened at home: "Although our Shen family is not a big family, it is also a well-off family. We have been scholars since our grandfather, and we also opened a private school to enlighten the children nearby. Shen's education is not bad. Hard work, the family has high hopes, but never thought that disaster would come from the sky. In the last exam, I passed the county exam and the government exam smoothly. Even if I am not very sure in the college exam, I always have a seven or eight score, but I am not on the list. I thought I thought too highly of myself and planned to try again in the next year, but I accidentally saw the top ten articles posted, and the article at the top of the desk was clearly the same as my original answer sheet..."

Needless to say, Qiao Mo also guessed the following.

A scholar with no background like Shen Feng, even if he got No. 1 in the exam, he can easily be paid for by others.Can Shen Feng be willing?No one would be willing to swallow this breath. This is a matter of the future of a lifetime.Shen Feng must have gone to file a complaint, but it doesn't matter that there is no money, naturally no one is in charge, but he was tricked again, which made the family poor and embarrassed. In the end, Shen Feng probably saw it through and came out to make a living.

"Who presided over the hospital examination?" Qiao Mo asked suddenly.

"The college examination is presided over by Xuezheng sent by the imperial court." Shen Feng saw the articles on the list back then, of course he tried to find the master Xuezheng who was in charge of the examination, but that kind of person was something he could meet whenever he wanted.What's more, later he also understood that without the help of the school and the government, how could the head of the case be easily replaced by someone else.

He filed a complaint in the county, but the county magistrate advised him to forget about it and take the exam next year.

He was not reconciled, but in the end his family was implicated, the private school was closed, his grandfather died of illness, his grandmother fell ill, and his father, uncle and younger brother were almost imprisoned.Now this big family can't do enough just relying on the hard work of their father and uncle. They are all scholars, so they don't have much strength. That's why he came out to find something to do so that his younger brother can study well.

Qiao Mo felt that Shen Feng was also unlucky, and planned to write this matter to Qi Yun in a letter, but he didn't know if he could help Shen Feng, so he didn't say anything for the time being.

At noon, Situxuan sent someone to invite him to a restaurant for dinner, but Qiao Mo found an excuse to decline.

In the evening, He Yun inquired about Li Shuilian's news.

It turned out that Chen Minghao didn't know about Ma He's golden house, until the marriage was approaching, and a younger brother from another family wanted to see his jokes, so he told it in front of many guests at a banquet, which made him lose face.Chen Minghao was not a good-natured person, let alone knowing the truth under such circumstances, he vented all his anger on Li Shuilian.

Chen Minghao is ruthless. He directly found the house where Ma He placed Li Shuilian, and had someone press it on the ground. He personally scraped Li Shuilian's face with a knife, and then drove out the family of three, not to mention money, even a piece of clothes. None.

After the three members of the Li family were kicked out, they wanted to find Ma He, at least to get some money to hurt Li Shuilian, but they couldn't find anyone after searching in several places.Li Shuilian is not a complete idiot, knowing that Ma He is avoiding him, she clearly does not want him.

What Li Shuilian valued most was her own face, and Chen Minghao's ruining his face was tantamount to killing him.

The veil covering the wound was already soaked in blood, and against a pair of eyes full of resentment, it was extremely frightening.
