Chapter 42
At noon, the three members of the Cheng family walked back to Zhu's house, but when they turned the alley and passed by the Zhu family's grocery store, they saw people gathered at the door of the store in twos and threes, all with different expressions, pointing and pointing, and it was very inappropriate to look at it.
Hongzhu suddenly remembered that Deng Jincheng brought someone to block the door last time, and before he could think about it, he grabbed Li and Cheng Wenhan and stood far away.
Li immediately panicked, and only asked, "What's the matter?"
"Mother, you and your brother are waiting here, I'll go over and take a look. Hongzhu said, seeing that Li was anxious when he heard it, he added one more sentence, "I'll be careful, I'll come back after a look." After saying this, she walked over, and when she had bypassed the crowd, she saw that the ground in front of the grocery store was strewn with white paper, and a white cloth hung on the door, and the store was already closed.
Hongzhu looked left and right, and didn't see the ruffians blocking the door and making trouble, and the neighbors around the front of the store were just pointing to the storefront and gossiping, and it didn't look like there were people from the Deng family, so I couldn't help but be puzzled and relieved. She turned her face, but she happened to see the guy in the grocery store.
That Xiao Wen is just a half-grown child, and his temperament is a little jumpy on weekdays, but he is a coward, and since he is also here, it is obvious that this disaster has already happened. Hongzhu went over and grabbed him and asked, "Brother Xiao, what's going on in this store?"
Xiao Wenzheng was holding a bun and nibbling on it, while talking to someone, when he saw Hongzhu coming and asked, he first sighed, "Hongzhu, you didn't see you when you came back, you really scared me!"
It turned out that more than half an hour ago, a few people wearing filial piety clothes and white robes came to the Deng family to report the funeral, and the leader was Deng Jincheng. When these people came, they didn't go to the back door of the house, and blocked the grocery store in front of them.
Zhu Guida came out to receive the funeral letter, and Deng Jincheng cried loudly for his hard-working cousin...... said how Deng Jinyu was a high fighter, how Yushu was in the wind, how he knew etiquette and filial piety, how he decided the girl of the Zhu family, how he thought about marrying, how he got sick at a young age, and how he died with a whimper......
Zhu Guida opened his mouth to stop it, but how could he stop it, and Deng Jincheng didn't do anything when he looked at it, but he ran to the door of Zhu's store with the posture of the boss and cried in front of Zhu's store without regard for his face.
But it's really such a coincidence, there are two articulate idlers in front of the store, who actually know the details of the family affairs of Deng and Zhu's families, and they clearly understand the matters of the two families with one mouth.
said that the eldest girl of the Zhu family had a bad life, and the son of the Deng family was killed!
The words of the two idlers were really clear-eyed, saying that the son of the Deng family was in excellent health, and he had not had any serious illness for more than ten years, and he must have kissed the girl of the Zhu family and his body was two points weaker. Last year, he said that he was going to get married, and the Deng family fell ill within two months. Yesterday, the girl of the Zhu family entered the door of Deng's house, met the face of the person, and said two words, and in less than half of the night, the person went!
When I didn't see anyone, the person was fine, but as soon as I saw it, the person died, this is to recruit a broom star into the door, and the person is to give her death.
Zhu Guida didn't hold back his anger, raised his arm and stepped forward to drive away the two idlers, but the nonsense had already been said. When others saw Zhu Guida angry and angry, they were even more curious, this was just a little suspicious, but it became a believer, and without waiting for anyone to talk about it, they asked one by one about the person who listened to it in detail, one passed two two passed four, and the people nearby actually knew.
Zhu Guida's face was flushed with anger, knowing that this incident was caused by the Deng family, but Deng Jincheng didn't say anything, he was crying sadly about his cousin, and the people who spoke were all inexplicable idlers...... Zhu Guida had no other way, so he could only beg someone to go back in a good voice.
The two sides are in a stalemate, and there are more and more people watching the excitement. At this time, Deng Jincheng is a loser, not the hooligan who blocked the shop and beat people, so it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, so there are no neighbors who come forward to help. Seeing that things were about to make a big fuss, Zhu Yanmei pulled a woman out of the store, and she was not afraid of Deng Jincheng's arrogance, so she hurried to Deng Jincheng to talk to him.
After a while, Deng Jincheng's face changed greatly, and he immediately stopped the fake cry and stood in place in a daze......
"Do you know what your aunt said to the Deng family?" Xiao Wen said that he had sold a pass here, and waited for Hongzhu to ask with a proud face.
But there is no need for him to say it, but Hongzhu knows what Zhu Yanmei has to rely on, she only said: "My aunt has spoken to Deng Jincheng, and they will go back?"
Xiao Wen didn't know why she asked, so he only smiled and said: "Only I heard the details of those words, they only knew that the Zhu family had found a big backer and drove Deng Jincheng away." He asked, "Don't you want to know?"
Hongzhu glanced at him and said, "You'd better not talk to anyone, you won't get into trouble!" After that, he ignored him, turned around and went back to find Li and Cheng Wenhan.
The front side couldn't get in, so Hongzhu pulled them around the back door, and informed them all the way about what they had inquired about.
After hearing this, Li Shi said with an uneasy expression: "This Zhao family's family affairs have not yet come to a conclusion, and now it will make your aunt shout, if something happens later, what can I do?"
Cheng Wenhan said: "As far as the posture of the Deng family is concerned, if you don't tell the Zhao family and send people away, what can you do?" ā
Hongzhu also knew this situation, and secretly worried, and her pace sped up a little.
Back in the courtyard of the Zhu family, it was quiet, not like it had just passed through some kind of door blockade. Hongzhu looked into the hall and saw that Mrs. Zhu, Mr. and Mrs. Zhu Guida and Zhu Yanmei were all there, and there was a thirty or forty-year-old female guest who was dressed quite richly, looking like someone from the Zhao family that Xiao Wen said.
Hongzhu and the Li family glanced at each other, and they both had the bottom in their hearts, and they were afraid that the Zhao family had sent someone to look at Zhu Biyun first. Li sighed lowly, knowing that she couldn't get involved in the affairs of the hall, so she silently went to the kitchen. Cheng Wenhan shrugged and followed her to help.
Hongzhu looked into Zhu Biyun's room, but didn't go there after all, and followed Li to the kitchen.
After a while, Jiang also arrived in the kitchen and told Li to cook more delicious food, Li wanted to ask something, but she quickly turned around and left. Hongzhu saw that her expression was stable, not as sad and sad, nor as resentful, so she knew that she had finally admitted it, and couldn't help but pouted secretly.
At noon, the three members of the Cheng family used it in the stove room, and they didn't go to the hall to join the Zhu family. I don't know how the Zhao family's affairs were discussed, Hongzhu only knew that there had been no movement in Zhu Biyun's house, and there was no crying or noise. Not to mention Zhu Biyun, even Zhu Zilan and Hongzhu were not seen.
Hongzhu had a lot of things in her heart, so she went to the restaurant in the afternoon, and only put down a little when she got up.
Second Uncle Li came back with the plaque of the shop that had been made before, and everyone looked around the plaque, looking at the concise and eye-catching four big characters of "Xingjia Food Shop", and they were very happy.
Because the second uncle Li had previously found someone to calculate the opening day of the restaurant, there were two hours, one was the twenty-eighth year before the year, and the other was the eighth day of the new year after the year. Li and Hongzhu both felt that it was still the right year after all, so they set a date with Second Uncle Li.
It's been less than two days, but suddenly I remember that there is one important thing I haven't done, which is the menu of this restaurant.
If it is said that it is an early stall, Second Uncle Li and the Zhong family are used to doing it, and it is impossible to talk about the color and fragrance of those small businesses, and it is excellent to have one. Then there are early stall customers are in a hurry to work, this food should be convenient and fast, refreshing in summer and warm up in winter, and the portion should be sufficient, and there is not much demand for the side.
Second Uncle Li is more particular than others in this, the craftsmanship of the couple has been calculated in the early stall, and then there is a red bead here, she has a more expensive tongue, and she has made efforts to adjust them, and their stall is also famous in two years, and it is prosperous every day.
Now that I have changed the restaurant, although most of the menu food remains the same, it is more elaborate and complete than the one on the stall, and there is also the noon night market, there are always a few more things to fill the stomach.
In fact, this fine list is slow to think about it, and the most important thing at the moment is to open the store in two days, and this first day always has to be a good start, but it happened to be the New Year. This New Year, even the poorest people's houses are full of vegetables and meat at this time, and this year can eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner outside from time to time, so the main meal is probably not possible.
Hongzhu thought about it, and then mentioned yƬ to make some styles of fresh and chic pastries and sweets, this thing is prepared to welcome guests during the New Year, and relatives have to use it to pay New Year's greetings, and it should be auspicious, they opened on the first day and sold it half-sold and half-sent, first calling the name of their restaurant.
When she said this, the Zhong family and the Li family all agreed.
