Chapter 303: Grandma is here
"Grandma, slow down!"
At the door of the store, Tian Lu and Tian Xiaobing were on the left and right, supporting the old lady with silver hair and staggering, the old lady cleaned up neatly, wearing a blue cloth cotton jacket and cotton pants, a pair of black cloth cotton shoes, a black cloth towel wrapped around her head, and a bright and clear small bamboo basket on her arm, there were some eggs in the bamboo basket, and she was a little panting a little when she climbed a few steps at the entrance of Zhou'an's store.
And at this moment, they heard Zhou An's voice from inside the store.
The old lady, Tian Lu, and Tian Xiaobing all subconsciously stopped, stood outside the door, and listened in surprise.
What they heard was Zhou An's plea with the three landlords asking them to give them a two-month rent grace.
The old lady was smiling, Tian Lu and Tian Xiaobing also looked relaxed, and after hearing this, the smile on the old lady's face faded, Tian Lu frowned a little, and Tian Xiaobing was a little surprised.
"Wild dog, help me in!"
The old lady instructed Tian Lu, Tian Lu agreed, and Tian Xiaobing helped her into the hall.
At this time, on Zhou An's side, Yan Xuedong was frowning and groaning, and Huang Jinwu was smiling, eating and drinking, as if it was none of his business.
Qian Mancang turned the wine glass in his hand, and seemed to be thinking about whether to give Zhou An this face.
Zhou Jian frowned tightly on the side, his face was dark, and he looked unhappy, he didn't expect the eldest brother to give such a heavy gift, and the three old gangsters were still grinding and chirping, not happy at all.
(Lao Bang Cai: In the local dialect, it generally refers to some vegetable leaves, vegetable gang very old dishes, generally refers to old men, and is a contemptuous term.) )
Hearing footsteps at the door of the store, several people subconsciously looked over.
Seeing a young man and a little girl, helping an old lady in, Qian Mancang and the others were stunned.
And Zhou An got up in surprise and walked quickly to meet him.
"Grandma, it's so cold, why are you here?"
asked his grandmother, but his inquiring eyes looked at Tian Lu and Tian Xiaobing.
When he saw Tian Xiaobing, he roughly guessed the reason in his heart, and his brows furrowed, it was estimated that it was the idea of his uncle and aunt to let his grandmother do his ideological work.
As a result, Zhou An's face was a little uncertain.
Grandma is so old, and she still bothers her old man, it's just unfilial!
"Hehe, grandma has come to see you! My Xiao'an has opened such a big shop, and grandma wants to come and see it too!
The old lady patted the back of Zhou An's hand holding her, said kindly, and handed Zhou An the small bamboo basket containing the eggs to Zhou An.
Zhou An casually put the basket on the ground at the door and reached out to hold his grandmother.
At this time, Qian Mancang chuckled, put down the wine glass, exhaled, got up and picked up a bottle of Moutai, picked up a piece of Chinese sandwiched under his armpit, and walked towards this side with easy steps.
As he walked, he said: "Okay! Since Xiao Zhou has said everything you have said about this, 20,000 yuan will be two months late! I still have this bit of human touch, eat people with soft mouths and short hands! Haha, let's go!"
When he walked towards the gate, he was naturally facing Zhou An and them, with his back to Yan Xuedong and Huang Jinwu.
So as he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at Zhou An with a reassuring expression, with an expression that I can only help you get here.
"This ......"
Yan Xuedong was a little caught off guard, he didn't expect Qian Mancang to agree to Zhou An's request so quickly.
Huang Jinwu sandwiched another piece of white-cut mutton, dipped it in the dipping sauce of the flavor dish, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, slapped the chopsticks on the table casually, reached out and wiped his mouth with a tissue, in Yan Xuedong's surprised gaze, Huang Jinwu got up with a full burp, also put a piece of Chinese under his armpit, and picked up a bottle of Moutai.
Staggered to the gate, smiling as he walked, "Hmm, Xiao Zhou, thank you for today's wine and food! Hmm, I have eaten my stomach, hehe, just for your craft, I believe you can make up my rent in two months, I will not be polite to smoke and alcohol, and go! Business is booming! ”
Yan Xuedong's mouth opened and closed a few times, a little dumbfounded, Zhou An invited the three of them to drink and talk about things today, he hasn't decided here yet, Qian Mancang and Huang Jinwu readily agreed to Zhou An's request one by one, and just left?
"Thank you!
"Thank you, Uncle Qian! Thank you, Brother Huang! Don't worry, in two months, I will pay you the rent I owe!"
Zhou An thanked him repeatedly.
Qian Mancang agreed so quickly, he expected it, after all, it was said in advance, and Huang Jinwu was also so happy, for him, it was a surprise.
Yan Xuedong sighed helplessly, with a sense of depression that the general trend had gone, he shook his head with a wry smile, didn't say anything anymore, got up and carried the last bottle of Moutai on the table, took the Zhonghua, and walked to the door of the store.
As he walked, he said: "Xiao Zhou! Since both of them have agreed, then I will give you this face! I will not do this evil alone, but let's say okay, only this once, and not the next one!
Zhou An was full of smiles, "Okay, thank you Teacher Yan! Teacher Yan rest assured, next time it will definitely not be!"
Yan Xuedong shook his head, passed by him with a wry smile, and left.
Zhou An sent them away with a smile on his face, today's goal was achieved, and the joy in his heart was needless to say, although in the process, his posture was very low, which hurt his self-esteem a little.
But, isn't this the case in this world? When the prime minister of the extremely popular minister saw the emperor, he still had to bow down and bow down, and when he Zhou An encountered difficulties, he lowered his posture to accompany a little smile, and said a few insincere small words.
As long as he crosses this hurdle, his career can go to the next level, and he will bow his head once, so that he will not have to bow his head more times in the future, and he will not feel wronged.
Seeing off the three landlords, Zhou An turned around and smiled at his grandmother, walked over and walked to the chair not far away with her old man's house.
"Grandma, you haven't eaten at noon, have you? What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you." ”
"Just cook us two bowls of noodles, I said I'll come back after eating at home, your cousin wild dog has to pull me to you to eat, don't you think this is causing you trouble?
The old lady babbled, turning her head and glancing at Yokota.
Tian Lu smirked.
Zhou An also smiled, "Grandma, what my brother said is right, you come here once, of course you want to try my craft, you don't seem to have tasted my craft, right?"
"I'm bothering you!" the old lady sighed.
Zhou An smiled, and looked at Tian Xiaobing, who was a little restrained, "Bingbing, what do you want to eat? Don't listen to grandma! Since you're here, then order what you like, what's so delicious about noodles, right? Tell me, what do you want to eat?"
Tian Xiaobing's eyes were a little complicated when she looked at him, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.
Maybe it's because she heard some sarcastic things about Zhou An from her parents?
Maybe it was because she heard Zhou An at the door just now asking for a two-month rent forbearance in a low voice?
Or maybe it was something else, in short, she looked at Zhou An's gaze a little complicated at this time.
"I'm casual, the noodles are good!" she said.
"Hehe, okay, then noodles!"
Zhou An nodded, helped his grandmother to sit down, and turned around to go to the kitchen to cook noodles for them.
Tian Lu shouted in the back: "Hey, don't you even ask me what I want to eat?"
"Hehe, does it matter what you want to eat?
Zhou An replied without looking back, of course, in a joking tone, but it was enough for Tian Lu to be depressed.
"This kid! Tian Lu muttered.
The old lady smiled kindly, looked around the hall with soft eyes, and then touched the desktop in front of her, and sighed with relief, "No wonder Benye and the eldest daughter-in-law are bent on borrowing money from Xiao An, this store is really big and magnificent!"
"Grandma, you drink tea. ”
Zhou Jian made a pot of tea at this time and brought it over, very polite to the old lady, it stands to reason that the old lady is Zhou An's grandmother, not his grandmother, but he is not a fool, he has been behind Zhou An for so long, he has already felt Zhou An's feelings for his grandmother from Zhou An's usual words, as soon as the old lady entered the door just now, he was stunned, and hurried to make tea.
"Oh, yes, good boy, are you?"
The old lady was very polite, but she didn't remember Zhou Jian, after all, Zhou Jian had left Zhoujia Village for many years, although she had seen Zhou Jian's appearance when he was a child, but how old a child was when he grew to fourteen or fifteen years old, and the change in appearance could be small?
"Grandma, my name is Zhou Jian, and Zhou An is my eldest brother! I saw you when I was a child, and you gave me candy to eat!"
Zhou Jian introduced himself with a smile.
The old lady said oh, but looking at her expression, it was obvious that she couldn't remember.
I'm old and I don't have a good memory.
The most important thing is that she hasn't seen Zhou Jian for many years.
Soon, Zhou An came back with three bowls of noodles on a tray.
Two big bowls, one small bowl, the small bowl was prepared for his grandmother, and he knew that his grandmother couldn't eat much at this age.
There are also a few dishes of side dishes on the tray, such as pickled cabbage, sweet and sour radish, spiced beef, etc.
"Come, grandma, this bowl is for you, authentic beef noodles, you can taste it!"
A small bowl of noodles was covered with a thick layer of braised beef slices, and the beef slices were sprinkled with a little green green onion, and Tian Lu and Tian Xiaobing both swallowed their saliva quietly.
Serving her grandmother, Zhou An was careful, not only brought the bowl to the old lady with both hands, but also handed the chopsticks to her.
"Bingbing, this bowl is yours!"
treats Tian Xiaobing, Zhou An is as kind as pleasant.
But for Tian Li, it's ......
"Cousin, you can serve this bowl yourself! What are you doing sitting there, old Bibi? Waiting for me to serve it to you?"
Tian Lu: ", no, Xiao An, do you have any opinions about me? I am also a guest today! Have you forgotten that I am still your cousin!"
Zhou An couldn't help but laugh and ignored him, but asked the old lady who had just tasted a piece of beef with a smile.
"Grandma, how's it going?"
The wrinkles on the old lady's face smiled, and she nodded again and again, "Well, my Xiao'an is so good at craftsmanship, no wonder I can open such a big store, it's really promising!"
After praising Zhou An, she took Tian Lu with her mouth, "Wild dog, you are a muddy boy, don't bully Xiao An! How can you do this, brother? Learn more from Xiao An, don't learn from your eldest brother!"
Tian Lu: "I...... No, grandma, which eye did you see me bullying him? Obviously he bullied me, okay?"
Zhou An, Zhou Jian, and Tian Xiaobing snickered on the side.
However, Tian Xiaobing soon couldn't laugh, because the old lady looked at her again, "And you, Bingbing! Don't learn from your eldest brother in the future." ”
Tian Xiaobing: "......"
