Chapter Ninety-Eight: Retribution (Three Watches)

"Dad, it's sure, it's okay, how can Old Lady Zhou do that kind of thing!"

Xia Ziqiu said, but Old Man Xia was still not at ease, and said:

"Ziqiu, it's not what my father said, forget it, it should be a concubine, otherwise you can't marry our family, by the way, I see that you didn't have a good face when you came in with your second uncle, how did you do it? Do you still hold a grudge against the events of the year, okay, things have passed all these years, don't be careful, sit down and eat! ”

Old Man Xia greeted, Xia Ziqiu didn't say anything, nodded, Xia Tianshou was extremely cautious and snorted coldly!

Meng Shi and Xia Zichun also entered the house, Shiro Golang followed behind, Xia Meier was still like that, she seemed to have caught a cold, and her snot was a little disgusting to look at, and when she saw Xia Ziqiu, Meng Shi didn't look like the attitude just now, and said to Xia Ziqiu with a smile.

"Ziqiu, you passed the Xiucai exam, you can't forget your eldest brother, your eldest brother loved you so much when he was a child, by the way, there was a chicken stewed at home today, I'll get it for you!"

As Meng spoke, he walked out, and Liang immediately shouted on the side of the kang:

"Eldest daughter-in-law, where did you get the chicken, you are too embarrassed to get it from the pear blossom side!"

Liang said, obviously for Xia Ziqiu, Xia Ziqiu shook his head and said:

"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I ate late in the afternoon, I'm not hungry, don't be busy, I'm just here to go around, there are still things at home, I have to go back quickly, when Shiro Goro grows up, you can give this chicken to Shiro Goro!"

Xia Ziqiu said, although Zhao Lihua is pregnant. But Liang's is too thin! And Liang's words just now made Xia Ziqiu even more angry, what if Zhao Lihua is pregnant, the daughter-in-law in this family, in addition to Xia Zixia, who is rich, which daughter-in-law in the other two rooms is not seven or eight months pregnant and still works, what more Zhao Lihua has, and Xia Ziqiu himself admitted in his heart that this is mostly because Liang has too much management of the Xia family, and he is not happy!

And Xia Ziqiu said that this chicken should be eaten by Shiro Goro. Meng straightened his chest. It's even more exciting!

"Yes, Ziqiu, what you said is yes, in this village. I've said it all lately. Our family. In the end, Zidong, a talented old man, has a hard face, and his life is really good, this pregnant woman is about to become an ancestor. You sit, Xue Ge sits too! I'm going to get the chickens! ”

Meng Shi said that he was about to go out, and as soon as he left the house, Xia Xuege heard Xia Zijun's dissatisfied voice from the hut.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing, are you trying to harm my daughter-in-law!"

Xia Zijun said, helping Zhao Lihua into the house, it has been four months, Zhao Lihua's stomach has been slightly bulging, but looking at the obvious fat of almost twenty pounds, Xia Xuege sighed, in the Xia family can gain weight so fast, the Liang family really opened a small stove for his daughter-in-law, and Xia Zijun helped Zhao Lihua, Zhao Lihua also held a food box in her hand, as soon as she saw Xia Ziqiu, Zhao Lihua smiled.

"The third brother is back, he must have done well in the exam, there are magpies in the yard today, this is the chicken that Zijun bought in the morning, my mother-in-law and father-in-law are good to me, but I came close to me, but I heard that this exam tried to peel off the skin, so I asked Zijun to help me come over and use it for the third brother!"

Zhao Lihua said, smiling widely, and Old Man Xia seemed to realize the problem of "taking the second test and peeling off the skin" at this time, and hurriedly said:

"Yes, Ziqiu, you stay and eat, how long have you not eaten at home, it just so happens that your second uncle and aunt are here, look at you, your face is white and scary!"

Old Man Xia said, Zhao Lihua smiled and sent the chicken over, but it was impossible for Xia Ziqiu to eat here, standing on the ground and saying:

"Dad, no, there's really something at home, I'll go first, there are a lot of eggs at home, I'll send some tomorrow, you can make up for it, look at you, how thin have you been? Don't be old with the fourth daughter-in-law, when my daughter-in-law was pregnant, didn't my mother always say that women can't eat more when they are pregnant? How much weight has the fourth daughter-in-law gained here, the nutrition is good, the child was born about seven pounds, and the fourth daughter-in-law has gained almost twenty pounds! ”

Xia Ziqiu said, not afraid of offending Xia Zijun and the Liang family, Xia Xuege didn't agree with Xia Ziqiu demolishing the Liang family so clearly, but thinking that the Liang family actually restricted food when Zhang Qinsheng was himself, he was also angry in his heart, so he didn't say anything.

"And it's not just one person in the family who needs to replenish the body, don't be bitter about yourself, Dad, I said, do you understand?"

Really.

After Xia Ziqiu finished speaking, the Liang family, Xia Zijun and Zhao Lihua changed their faces over there, and the most surprising thing for Xia Xuege was that the second grandmother didn't care about others, took the food box from Zhao Lihua's hand, and put it on the table.

"Sit down and eat, they're not outsiders!"

Ooh! really thinks that he is the master, Xia Xuege was speechless, is it really a family that does not enter the door, has a cautious husband, how can you expect a woman to go? And Xia Ziqiu saw this, waved his hand, and said to Old Man Xia:

"Dad, then you can eat first, I'll go home first, I really have something to do when I go back, you can eat, I'll ...... go"

Saying that, Xia Ziqiu led Xia Xuege away, and on the way back, it was already smoke, Xia Xuege grabbed Xia Ziqiu's big hand and couldn't help but ask.

"Dad, is grandma very bad to my mother?"

Hearing Xia Xuege ask, Xia Ziqiu sighed and said:

"Hey, at that time, I was also with my father, I was busy to death, your mother was pregnant with you for three months, and my father didn't care about your mother, the things sent by your uncle and grandfather were all detained by your grandmother, I didn't know, and then I knew that I wanted it, and your grandmother said that pregnant women can't eat more, it's not good for children, and my father doesn't understand, now think about it, your grandmother is too much!"

Xia Ziqiu said, quite resentful, Xia Xuege didn't say anything anymore, Liang's person is not good, and for Xia Ziqiu, Xia Xuege admitted that she was very satisfied with one thing, that is, for Zhang Qin's woman, the person is dead, don't hold a grudge anymore, in the end, it is a husband and wife, Xia Ziqiu did this store, Xia Xuege really likes it.

On the other hand, Xia Xuege really expects to see what the Liang family did to Zhang Qin at the beginning, and what kind of retribution is for his daughter-in-law, is the so-called retribution unpleasant!

After returning home, Xia Xuege began to go back to the house to sketch out the cost of opening a hot pot restaurant or something, because it was really late to eat in the afternoon, Xia Ziqiu was busy and simply cooked some rice balls for supper.

Meng Shi didn't mention the matter of Zhou Changyu and Zhou Yuanchun, and said that Xia Ziqiu was going to get married, and it was estimated that eighty percent would not dare to say it after going back, for fear that Old Man Xia would know that she had offended Zhou Changyu and attack her, but it was okay, more than one thing was better than one less.

Spreading out the drawings and results that he had carefully calculated, Xia Xuege and Xia Ziqiu discussed.

"Dad, look, this is the budget I made, our family has a total of three hundred and seventy-three taels of silver, I didn't count the fraction, let's calculate how much it costs to open the store."

As he spoke, Xia Xuege and Xia Ziqiu began to study the drawings.

"According to what you said, Uncle Sun even gave you tables, chairs and benches, and we can continue to hire the chefs there, and the hot pot thing, we don't need a few cooks, Uncle Sun's original chef is enough, and there is no need to recruit any more people."

"That is, the inn left by Uncle Sun, we almost don't have to move, and I think it's not suitable for us to change careers, just open an inn there, the first floor is so big, it's enough to make hot pot, otherwise there is no place to clean up the furniture upstairs, and most importantly, we don't have so much money to invest."

Xia Xuege said, Xia Ziqiu frowned, "That Xuege, you mean it's still an inn, but then let's open a hot pot restaurant, what about the guests who eat stir-fried vegetables?" ”

"This is too, but isn't the kitchen reserved, so let's do it on call, anyway, the hot pot thing, as long as it is dealt with in advance."

"That's fine, Xue Ge, you go on."

Xia Ziqiu said, Xia Xuege nodded, and continued:

"I'm going to make two hundred pots, let's change the layout of the hall!"

"Two hundred!"

Before Xia Xuege finished speaking, Xia Ziqiu was shocked by this number, and Xia Xuege nodded.

"Dad, yes, two hundred, I have drawn the floor plan of the hall, which can accommodate one hundred and fifty tables of guests."

Xia Xuege said that she designed her new store completely according to the layout of a modern restaurant.

"Dad, don't underestimate this hot pot, do a good job, especially the traffic arteries like Eighteen Lipu, it is definitely full, I arranged one hundred and fifty tables in the hall, and the remaining fifty pots can be used in the guest room, and then there are charcoal and dishes, mainly mutton and pork and all kinds of vegetables or something, this is easy to say, there are ice cellars in the inn and our house, all easy to say, roughly calculated, the most expensive is meat and pots, to thirty-eight taels, and then there are a lot of tables and chairs, to ten taels of silver, vegetables to five taels, By the way, Dad, our spicy cabbage should be delivered to the county seat tomorrow. ”

Xia Xuege said, Xia Ziqiu nodded, Xia Xuege's handwriting is still a little crooked, but it is much better than at the beginning, Xia Ziqiu can also understand it, if you open a hot pot restaurant, although the investment is a little more, it is worth it.

"Okay, Xue Ge, then you can go to the pot tomorrow, Dad has nothing to do, the tables and chairs are just done, the tables and chairs you painted are all square, Dad can be busy in half a month, and your grandson will leave in half a month!"

"Dad, I'm going to sleep, business is booming, marry Aunt Yuanchun early and enter the door!"

Xia Xuege smiled, and at the mention of Zhou Yuanchun, Xia Ziqiu blushed.

"You kid, it's still early, go back to the house and go to sleep!"

Xia Ziqiu said, Chubby and Milk Candy looked at the red-faced Xia Ziqiu on the kang, this Xia Xuege went back to the house, and they naturally followed, Milk Candy lived with Xia Xuege, and Xiao Pang was who was by the stove in the kitchen, which was the warmest! (To be continued......)
