Back to the ancient restaurant

When it comes to dog-eat-dog incidents, people generally just watch a show.

Li Zi'an looked at the Shen and Xu families who were in a mess and thought it was extremely ridiculous, so he invited everyone out of his yard.Li Zian called everyone from the Li family back to his home, and immediately closed the courtyard door.

Looking at the people in the hall with dark clouds above their heads, Li Zi'an held Li Hongshen's hand and sighed involuntarily, and mentioned the main purpose of his return this time to Brother Li and the others again.

Brother Li only knew that his old mother told him that his younger brother's business was good, but he didn't expect that the time to turn over the Chinese New Year would already be a semicolon.The younger brother was able to speak to him for the second time, obviously there was a real shortage of manpower.Moreover, the children have already reached the age of enrolling in school, so it is not better to stay in the village than to really go out and fight.

Thinking of this, Second Brother Li turned his head to look at his wife, seeing her nodding at him with a smile, he already understood what he meant.Seeing that his wife was so supportive of him, Second Brother Li had nothing to worry about, so he agreed without a word.

"Don't stay at home, mother. Our whole family moved to the town together. When the second brother and the second sister-in-law are busy, they can help take care of the children and do some housework."

The two most caring sons said so, there is nothing for Mrs. Li to miss, she nodded in response with a funny smile and stroked Li Wenshu's little head.

Seeing that the whole family agreed, Li Zian told them to set a date for them to come and help them move after they got ready.The family ate a meal and rested for the night with mixed feelings, Li Zian and Li Hongshen turned back to the town.

Second Brother Li and Old Madam Li must not be able to live in Li's Mansion when they come here.The living habits are different, and the biggest worry is that Li Hongshen cannot adapt.Fortunately, when the old man was alive, the owner of the yard hadn't rented it out yet, so Li Zi'an signed a three-year contract in one go.After tidying up roughly, the old lady and the second brother's family were brought over.

After two days of guarding in the store, Wang Zhong and Zhang Yu got to know each other roughly.Li Zian felt relieved when he saw that the two were not the kind of people who would steal, rape and play tricks. He handed over the account to the two, and at the same time asked his second brother to be the manager of the restaurant.He does all the chores in the store, everything that needs to be purchased and errands.

Although the two are brothers, they have to settle accounts clearly.After talking about the salary with the second brother, I discussed it with everyone. If the profit of the food shop at the end of the year is good, each person can get two to three months more wages every year, and at the same time, there are gift boxes and red envelopes to get.In this way, there is no need to worry about working in the shop.

Li Hongshen, who was sitting on the sidelines and listening, waited for Li Zian to finish speaking, and quietly gave him a thumbs up and shook him, causing Li Zian to smile and roll his eyes.

……

After everything was arranged and on the right track, Li Zian took Li San'er's family and Wang Zhong to Xiashui City by boat.

At this time, under Zhao Yang's supervision and Zhang Shun's help, Xia Shui's shop was almost decorated.With the help of Zhang Shun, all the helpers in the shop were found together, just waiting for Li Zian to nod.But in this kind of shop, the helper is the face of the shop. First of all, personal hygiene and personality are several important.Li Zi'an naturally wanted to meet him before making a decision, so he immediately mentioned his thoughts to Zhang Shun.

How could Zhang Shun fail to understand Li Zian's mood, and immediately complied.On the second day, he quickly brought three men and two women over.

Li Zian took Li San'er and Li's sister-in-law to ask the five of them a few words, and he was even more satisfied when he heard that the elder brothers said that they had all worked as cooks in restaurants in the city.Immediately after looking at the hands of several people, he had an idea in his heart.The three discussed it and decided to leave only four people.

"The two elder sisters-in-law and the eldest brothers surnamed Xia and Liu will stay, and the elder brother surnamed Cai will be fine."

Zhang Shun has been a dentist for so many years, so he knows that there are some things that he should not inquire about.So without asking the reason, he readily responded.

Hearing from Zhao Yang that Zhang Shun has been helping and worrying a lot these days, to express his gratitude, Li Zian took Zhao Yang, Li San'er, Wang Zhong and others to invite Zhang Shun to have a drink after Mo Yu's worries. An took out a silver ingot of five taels from her pocket, and quietly stuffed it into Zhang Shun's hand while toasting.

Zhang Shun touched it for a while without refusing, and put it in his pocket after being courteous.

After a few days, all the furnishings in the shop were in place, Li Zi'an and everyone picked a good day together and opened the shop with a lot of money.

Because something happened to this shop before, and Li Zi'an basically had no foundation in Xia Shui.In the early stage, in order to attract customers, it is necessary to lower the price first.Three days before the opening, all the guests who go to Lai Kee for dinner will give a box of snacks as a gimmick as long as they spend fifteen coins.

In addition, Zhang Shun has a wide network of contacts in Xiashui, so he helped to do a wave of publicity before the opening. On the opening day, Li Zi'an invited a few passers-by to try the food for free.Pedestrians passing by outside saw the opening of the new store, and the scene of crowds in the store was aroused by curiosity.However, those who were attracted, when they entered the store and saw such a cheap meal and the accompanying snacks, they couldn't help but imitate the people in front of them, took the plate, chose the dishes and found a seat to sit down.After a taste, I found that the taste of this store is really good, and the price is also affordable.

In this way, more people are attracted and recommended.Even after the discount period passed three days later, the flow of people still remained unabated.In this way, Li Zian knew that the shop had taken root in Xiashui City.As long as the later stage is managed properly, there will be no major mistakes during the period, even if someone grabs the business, there will be no serious harm.

……

I stayed in Xiashui City for another half a month, and seeing that summer was about to enter, I calculated that there were not many days left before Li Hongshen Qiuwei.Although Li Zi'an was still a little uneasy about Zong here, he still gritted his teeth and took Zhao Yang to wave goodbye to Li San'er and Li Xiaobao who were going to see off at the pier, and set foot on the passenger ship going to Huangshi Town.

Because Li Hongshen's native place is in the capital, Qiu Wei must take the test of origin.Li Hong didn't want to be disturbed by those people living in Li's mansion during the autumn period, so he planned to go back early to avoid the inns in the capital being pre-booked.

Calculating the time it would take to go back to the capital, in a few days it would definitely be an early departure, but Li Zian hadn't returned, and Li Hongshen couldn't help but feel a little anxious.Just when he made up his mind to go back to the capital by himself, Li Zi'an took Zhao Yang all the way to the gate of Li Mansion.

Looking at Li Zian and Zhao Yang who lost a lot of weight in front of him, Li Hongshen felt distressed and happy at the same time.He hurriedly asked the two of them to go to the room to rest quickly, and then ordered Lin Guanshi, who had just arrived in the mansion, to invite Old Madam Li over.

Since Li Zian went to Xiashui, Mrs. Li occasionally came to Li's mansion to see Li Hongshen.According to Li Hongshen's preferences, help him cook some meals he likes to eat.When Li Hongshen was free, he would also go to the small courtyard to sit. Li Hongshen and Mrs. Li were not only in love with each other, but they were much more intimate than before.

The two were chatting about Li Zian's experiences in Xiashui, when Mrs. Li came with her two children.Seeing her son whom she hadn't seen for many days, Mrs. Li held his hand and looked at it carefully for a long time, and she was relieved when she saw that it was no different from before.

Mrs. Li has nothing to worry about now, and there are a few caring children by her side, and when she is in a good mood, she looks like two people as before.Moreover, Li Hongshen seemed to make up for the regret of not being able to fulfill his filial piety on Mrs. Li, sending some clothing, jewelry, melon and fruit snacks every now and then.With such a well-maintained old lady Li, she looks more than ten years younger than before.

Several people sat around and chatted for a while, and Mrs. Li couldn't help feeling relieved when she saw the affectionate appearance of the two in front of her.He stroked the white jade hairpin on his head.Thinking of what happened when he visited his pregnant grandson-in-law when he returned to the village a few days ago, he couldn't help grinning.

Seeing his old mother like this, Li Zian couldn't help but touched her hand with his elbow, and asked, "Mom, what are you thinking, so happy?"

"It's nothing, isn't Xiaomeng pregnant? I went back to see her a few days ago, just in time for Shen Linghua and the Xu family to run some business, so I just paid a few pennies."

When Li Zian and Li Hongshen heard the old lady's words, their expressions froze.I didn't expect that such a kind person, the old lady, would be overwhelming to respond to others.It's just that those two families have done things too early, and the old lady's doing so is already merciful enough compared to them.

Knowing that the old lady might still be angry, the two of them didn't know how to comfort her.Teasing the two children, he changed the subject without a trace.

While talking, it was already dinner time.Zhao Yang was asked to go to the shop and call Li Erge and Li Ersister to come to Li's house for dinner, and the old lady Li rolled up her sleeves and went out of the kitchen herself.Li Zi'an originally wanted to help but was thrown out by her.

Li Zi'an curled his lips at Li Hongshen helplessly, and had no choice but to go back to the main hall to pack the things he brought back.When the two were talking happily, they saw Guanshi Zhang from the Zhang Mansion walking in quickly.

Without waiting for Li Hongshen and Li Zian to greet him, Zhang Guanshi said: "Young Master Biao, Madam is here."

When Li Hongshen heard that his cousin had come, he hurriedly dropped his belongings and went to greet him at the gate of the house. Li Zian followed closely behind with his two children, Li Wenshu and Li Wenyue.

When Zhong Yanran got out of the sedan chair, she couldn't help showing a happy smile when she saw Li Hongshen at the door, but after seeing Li Zi'an and the two children beside him, her face froze involuntarily.

"This is……"

Li Hongshen followed Zhong Yanran's line of sight, touched Li Wenshu's small head and explained: "These two children belong to Brother Li's family, and they brought them here for fun today. It just so happens that my aunt is here, and my cousin doesn't mind." Let's see you then."

Since Li Zi'an's mother was also there, Zhong Yanran felt that it would be rude for her to leave so hastily.So Shi Shiran walked into the mansion with the hand of the maid next to her, watching the changes in the mansion all the way, although Zhong Yanran didn't show it on the face, she couldn't help but agree in her heart.Ever since my little cousin got together with Li Zi'an, life has finally become a bit warmer.

Zhong Yanran had just arrived at the main hall and took her seat, and the extremely cramped old lady Li was also picked up from the kitchen by Li Zian.As soon as she heard that the other party was the magistrate's wife, Mrs. Li was about to kneel down when she was stopped by Guanshi Zhang.

Zhong Yanran also got up, and looked at the simple old woman in front of her and bowed her body.

"Old madam, you don't need to be formal. Today I am here to deliver some things to my cousin as entrusted by my husband." After Zhong Yanran finished speaking, the maid beside her hurriedly handed a small wooden box to her hand.Zhong Yanran beckoned to Li Hongshen, called him to him and handed the box to him.

"Since you have made a choice, my cousin can only respect your decision."

Hearing the words deeply, Li Hong knew exactly what was inside the box. Hearing Zhong Yanran's words, he felt warm in his heart, and nodded solemnly to Zhong Yanran.

"Cousin don't worry, I will live well."

Zhong Yanran could tell that the old lady of the Li family was a kind person, and her cousin shouldn't suffer.When walking like this, he also pulled him to remind him thousands of times, and he must be careful.Li Hongshen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Seeing this, Zhong Yanran couldn't help but sighed, and a sense of loss was born spontaneously as the water splashed out by her married cousin.It's been so long since I've been with that person surnamed Li, and my elbows are all turned out...
