Chapter 69: A New Home
Li Haoqiang, Fan Xiuman and Wang Guizhi decided to go to the city to rent a house first, and keep their original one, and if the business is doing well, they will discuss whether to sell the original house depending on the situation at that time.
However, Wang Guizhi thinks that the original house is also very good, with beautiful scenery and fresh air. If it weren't for Deng Lingchun, Wang Guizhi really didn't want to move.
The three of them decided to look for their own properties and put the information together. Wang Guizhi asked them not to go through intermediaries, after all, intermediaries also cost money, and they can save it.
There are quite a lot of houses now, Wang Guizhi and Li Haoqiang discussed it and decided to pick a day to go to the city to see the house.
The first thing they went to was an apartment, the house price was quite cheap, six or seven hundred a year, but the location was too remote, Wang Guizhi and they shook their heads. This restaurant is naturally open in a place with a lot of people. And the apartment is too small, and the shop downstairs also costs a sum of money to rent, which is not cost-effective.
After that, they went to see a shop in the city center, there were many people, but the price was also ridiculously expensive, at least four or five thousand a year, and they didn't have a house, and the shops were small, and it was not cost-effective to open a restaurant. Wang Guizhi is quite confident in her craft, if she becomes a chef, the restaurant will be overcrowded every day. But she still has to go to school, and she can only come to help during the winter and summer vacations.
In the end, they chose a piece in the business district but not in the city center, although the flow of people is not as much as the first one, but it is not much worse, not to mention that the rent is much cheaper than the previous one, about 1,000 yuan a year. Although this is a lot of money, this is a small yard, the environment is good, and the open space is large. The landlord is still an old grandmother, and she has no other requirements for being alone, just hoping that someone can accompany her to talk.
"Dad, Mom, I think it's pretty good just this," Wang Guizhi looked at so many houses in one day, walked so many roads, and was a little tired, she thought she couldn't find a house today, but it was good to see this set at this time, "The flow of people here is not bad, and the price is much cheaper than the previous one." ”
"I think it's also very good, I've seen a few houses, and this one is the best," Fan Xiuman also likes the landlord's grandmother, "and this area is quite large, it must be good for a cooking restaurant." ”
Li Haoqiang nodded and agreed with their point of view: "The lighting here is also very good, and I just walked around, and found that this backyard is really big, you can grow vegetables and raise chickens or something, it is not worse than our original home, this furniture is also quite complete, we have to buy very little extra." ”
As soon as the three of them combined, they planned to rent it here.
Fan Xiuman was not in good health, so he stayed at home to pack up his things, while Wang Guizhi and Li Haoqiang went to the city a few times, bought some furniture and some equipment to buy, and started to decorate the courtyard of the group into a very good restaurant.
Wang Guizhi also stayed in the courtyard to help sort out the things that the restaurant needed. She saw that the tea, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea were almost ready, and remembered that the restaurant had better order more pickles or something, so she began to prepare pickles.
Wang Guizhi is going to make chili peppers, cucumbers, and pickles first. She prepared cucumbers, chili peppers, old wine, ginger slices and peppercorns. She washes the prepared dishes and dries them. The peppers were cut into slices, the cucumbers were cut into strips, and after being soaked in salt for a few hours, they were removed to dry. She heated the peanut oil again, put the peppercorns in it, waited until the peppercorns turned yellow, then added soy sauce, white wine, refined salt, ginger slices, and then boiled them together. Then put it in a dry container, add monosodium glutamate and sesame oil, wait until it cools, and then pour the cucumber and pepper prepared before into the soup and soak the dish.
Wang Guizhi made some sour cabbage again. She will first remove the old cabbage, wash it and cut it into strips, dry it until it is half dry, then put it in the jar, add seasonings and mix well, and marinate it for about two or three days.
Finally, Wang Guizhi made some cucumbers in sauce.
After about two weeks, Li Haoqiang's restaurant opened, Li Haoqiang thought about it and named it Li Family Farmhouse, the chefs are Wang Guizhi and Fan Xiuman, and occasionally Li Haoqiang will help cook some dishes.
The decoration of the new home is quite good, probably due to the official opening of a restaurant in the city, which is much better than the previous home decoration.
Li Haoqiang's move this time did not alarm many people, basically everything was done by Li Hao, Fan Xiuman and Wang Guizhi, only a few relatives with a particularly good relationship knew that they moved, Wang Guizhi and Fan Xiuman also made a special feast to celebrate.
About two or three weeks after Deng Lingchun was driven home by Li Haoqiang and Fan Xiuman, she wanted to sell her children again, so she went to Li Haoqiang's house again.
This time she picked an early morning time, if Li Haoqiang and they didn't agree, she blocked the door of the hotel to prevent them from opening, and Deng Lingchun didn't leave until their family agreed to have a stepchild.
However, what Deng Lingchun didn't expect was that she waited for most of the day, and the neighbors came out to work, but Li Haoqiang's restaurant did not move at all. She waited left and right, it was hot in the summer, and she was sweating all over. She saw that Li Haoqiang's house hadn't come out for a long time, so she asked the neighbor next to her: "Hey, why hasn't this Li family opened a restaurant yet?"
Deng Lingchun was not polite at all, and the neighbor already knew Deng Lingchun's notoriety, so he replied without raising his head: "I have already moved away." ”
"Moved away?" Deng Lingchun couldn't believe it, she couldn't believe her ears, "It's so good, why did you move away?"
"Maybe you're mad at you. The neighbor replied coldly.
Deng Lingchun had a closed door, and since then she has come four or five times, and after seeing that Li Haoqiang and their family affairs really moved away, she has never come again.
Before you know it, this summer vacation has passed.
Wang Guizhi is a sophomore at the beginning of school, and this time she did not go back to her biological parents' house for a few days, but went directly to the school.
When she returned to her dormitory, she heard someone in the dormitory chatting first.
"Ouch, tell me how you two met?" Zuo Qiaoyun asked very quickly and directly.
"This, how embarrassing is this......" Gosha was a little shy, "Eh, Guizhi is here, come in quickly, come in quickly, long time no see, why have you become a lot whiter after a summer vacation?"
"That's right, you were the blackest in our dormitory when you first started, and now you're the whitest!" Zhou Jing raised his tanned arm and said with envy.
Goxia Zuo Qiaoyun went out to play during the summer vacation and tanned a lot. On the contrary, Wang Guizhi, who was the blackest in the school dormitory, is now the whitest in the dormitory. This summer, Wang Guizhi has been working at home and has not had much time to go out. If she was at her biological parents' house, she would go out to work every day, and she would be burned a lot.
"Okay, okay," Wang Guizhi was embarrassed when she heard them say this, "Let me go in first, I still have to pack up my things." ”
After Wang Guizhi finished packing up his things, several people got together again and began to talk about the summer vacation.
Wang Guizhi said that her adoptive parents' family has now moved to the city, and it will be much more convenient to return home in the future.
"Guizhi, your family runs a restaurant, right," Zuo Qiaoyun remembered that Wang Guizhi had said what his adoptive parents were doing, and now that he heard that he had moved, he asked curiously: "What about now? What will you do after you move?"
"Now that I've moved, I'm still opening a restaurant," Wang Guizhi smiled and explained, "It's called the Li Family Farmhouse, if you come over another day, I'll treat you to a meal!"
"Great!" cheered the rest of the four.
"By the way, what were you talking about before I entered the door?" Wang Guizhi thought of what he was embarrassed to hear from Goxia at the door, and suddenly became curious, "Could it be that you are talking about the object?"
A hint of shyness appeared on the faces of several people, and they all nodded.
"All four of us have found a match," Gosha said embarrassedly, touching the back of his head, "so we were talking about it just now." ”
Hong Shuyan was obviously not in this range, she was sitting in her place, not knowing what she was doing. Although it's almost a semester, everyone remembers Hong Shuyan's stealing of the letter clearly, so they feel that she is very responsive. Although the other four people on the surface have not torn their faces with her, they are also very cold to her and will not take the initiative to ask her about her situation.
It can be said that Hong Shuyan is isolated again, but she deserves it.
Wang Guizhi was taken aback when she heard their words. She didn't expect that this summer vacation, Gosha and they actually had boyfriends. Even Carina Lau, who usually looks simple, has it, but Wang Guizhi thinks that Carina Lau is also very cute, and her temperament is good, so she no longer makes a fuss.
Wang Guizhi elbowed Ding Gexia, his face full of urgency: "You guys, you came over a summer vacation, and you actually got a boyfriend." Honestly, what do you do, how did you meet?"
"I ...... I was introduced to him by my family," Gosha was the first to speak, and his pretty face was almost as red as a ripe persimmon, "he is a carpenter, quite honest and simple, and he is very good to me." ”
"Oh~" several girls smiled in unison.
"Don't just laugh at me, there are other people," Ge Xia was also a lot more relaxed after speaking, and his shyness was much less than just now, "Zuo Qiaoyun, what about you?"
"Me, I'm a friend of mine, I've known each other for a long time, and then we got together after something happened during the summer vacation," Zuo Qiaoyun is the most straightforward, she is half shy when she speaks, "He drives a big car, that is, a driver, and he is also a very good person, after all, I have known each other for a long time." ”
"Oh, what's going on?" the other four were curious.
Zuo Qiaoyun touched the tip of his nose before saying, "I also went to work this summer, he accompanied me every day, and over time we were together." ”
Zuo Qiaoyun originally planned to spend the summer vacation at home, but she also thought that Wang Guizhi in her dormitory was earning money to subsidize the family and went to work, and she also wanted to prove that she could live independently.
After that, Carina Lau and Zhou Jing also talked about how they met the object and how the object did it.
After several people finished speaking, at this time, Hong Shuyan suddenly interjected: "Yo, I also have an object, you see, this is what my object bought for me." ”
After saying that, she deliberately showed the jade bracelet on her wrist and showed them off. Her face was full of triumph.
"Wow, this jade bracelet is so beautiful," Carina Lau looked at the delicate jade bracelet and knew that it was expensive, "Your boyfriend is really willing to spend money on you." ”
Carina Lau is more kind and easy to talk to, so she is the only one who can talk to people in the dormitory.
"Oh, there's no way, he's very rich," Hong Shuyan waved her hand, but her eyes were full of showing off, she raised her head proudly, her eyes glanced at Wang Guizhi, but she looked disdainful, "The family conditions are very good, and they are in business." His parents also spoil him, so naturally he will give him whatever he wants. ”
After a pause, she looked at Wang Guizhi and the others contemptuously again, and asked, "What about your boyfriend? ”
After she finished speaking, several girls' faces turned white in an instant, and this sentence directly offended them.
A few little girls are also in love for the first time, and they have just been talking for a long time, how many people can give particularly valuable gifts after a few days of talking?
"Ah......h I didn't, he didn't give me anything. Gosha said honestly.
After all, she really didn't give anything to her object, and Gosha didn't want to lie.
"Hmph, this is nothing to accomplish and start accepting other people's things," Zuo Qiaoyun has a relatively straight personality, she directly mocked Hong Shuyan, "This is going to be said, others may think that you are selling yourself." ”
Hong Shuyan was not angry, she looked at Zuo Qiaoyun's appearance, and felt that they were just jealous of themselves.
Since Wang Guizhi told her before, Hong Shuyan has also figured it out, she doesn't have to look at other people's faces anymore, she can live how she wants, she can say whatever she wants, anyway, others are jealous of herself.
Hong Shuyan was very proud, after she asked around, she couldn't compare to her boyfriend. Hong Shuyan set her sights on Wang Guizhi at this time, Wang Guizhi was the only one who did not say that she was a boyfriend. She wanted to make Wang Guizhi look ugly, so she was shocked.
"Wang Guizhi, what did your boyfriend send you?" Hong Shuyan asked deliberately, she waited for Wang Guizhi to say that she didn't have a boyfriend.
You must know that Wang Guizhi is one of the best Peugeots, and there are many people who like her in her age. But Wang Guizhi doesn't like to go out to socialize very much, except for classes and dinner, she basically spends the rest of her time in the dormitory, so basically no one can ask her out.
This era is not as open as later generations, and many boys and girls are more shy.
"Ah, that's not true," Wang Guizhi didn't deny that she didn't have a boyfriend, but said that she didn't receive anything, "I didn't get anything." ”
Although Wang Guizhi had a boyfriend, Hong Shuyan was very surprised, but hearing her say that she didn't receive anything either, this made Hong Shuyan's vanity instantly satisfied.
And on the other side, the barracks.
After Li Yongchang finished training, he couldn't wait to pick up the letter that Wang Guizhi wrote to him. Wang Guizhi is not as frequent as before, writing one letter a day, she only writes it for a week or two during the summer vacation, after all, it is tiring to write one a day, and it costs more money on envelopes.
Wang Guizhi said in the letter that her good friend Lin Yanmei went abroad to study, and she had no friends to talk to, except for Li Yongchang. Wang Guizhi also expressed her miss for Lin Yanmei in her heart.
Li Yongchang has heard more or less about Lin Yanmei, he knows that Wang Guizhi's eye for making friends will not be bad, and he also thinks that Lin Yanmei is a good girl.
Then Wang Guizhi said some of her own thoughts, what romance she has been writing recently, and how to write the plot of the male and female protagonists is more natural, rather than illogical.
Then Wang Guizhi talked about the quarrel at his biological parents' house, saying that he had been working hard at home but was always disliked by his parents, and this time he almost couldn't go to college.
Wang Guizhi didn't mind showing the ugliness of his original family in front of Li Yongchang. She knew that if she wanted to go abroad sooner or later, it was better to let Li Yongchang know as soon as possible, so that he could have more time to prepare mentally. And this kind of thing can't be hidden for a while.
Wang Guizhi finally talked about moving to a new place with his adoptive parents and opening a restaurant in his heart.
Li Yongchang's roommate Wei Ming came back and saw Li Yongchang smirking alone, shook his head, and only sighed that people in love are worthy of their IQ is also a lot lower.
He took Li Yongchang's heart, glanced at it a few times, and saw the quarrel, and he was also full of emotion: "Your girlfriend's biological parents are too much, and she is also quite pitiful." ”
Li Yongchang heard the word "girlfriend", but he did not object.
Wei Ming was even more sure of the relationship between the two of them.
Then he gave Li Yongchang a rough analysis of the current situation: "You see that she writes so much, and she writes a lot of quarrels, do you know what this means?"
"What do you mean?"
Looking at the letter to him, Li Yongchang was puzzled.
"Stupid, you," Wei Ming hated his roommate, a straight man, "which shows that she urgently needs you to give her a sense of security right now." ”
