Chapter Ninety-Five: Discussing the Opening of a Store (Three Watches)
Xia Ziqiu is obviously coming to Zhang's house to pick up the child after the exam, this nervous child, the style of putting the child first, so that the old lady is very satisfied with Xia Ziqiu.
"Ziqiu, sit ...... How's it going?"
The old lady said and pulled out a cushion for Xia Ziqiu, Xia Ziqiu called grandma and said:
"I did okay in the exam, I reviewed at home for more than three months, and it was not all wasted, Xiucai should be able to pass the ......"
Xia Ziqiu said, touched Xia Xuege's head, Zhang Yuhai also came over, sat next to Xia Ziqiu and asked:
"Brother-in-law, did that Xiucai do well in the exam? Heard to make an article? ā
"It's to make an article, but the first half of the exam is all in the books, the article is at the end, you can also give it a try in the sea of rain, it doesn't matter if you can pass the test or not, just go through it, this test has been done for three days in a row, many human bodies are not good, and there are many ...... that have been carried out"
Xia Ziqiu said, and Xia Xuege also found out that Xia Ziqiu's face was not very good, and he was tired when he thought about it.
"Dad, are you tired......
Xia Xuege asked, and Xia Ziqiu smiled......
"Dad is not tired, this is lighter than doing farm work in the field all day, speaking of which, are you naughty?"
"No, by the way, Dad, a guy who claims to be my uncle and grandfather has come and said he wants to take me away......"
Xia Xuege said, Xia Ziqiu and the others looked a little ugly, and Xia Ziqiu touched Xia Xuege's head.
"Xue Ge, let's go home and talk about these things, by the way, Yuhai, how does the hot pot made by Xue Ge last time?"
Xia Ziqiu heard it in his heart, and was a little worried, what did Old Man Xia want to do, and Xia Ziqiu asked, Zhang Yuhai suddenly became energetic.
"Brother-in-law. Are you talking about the hot pot you had at your house last time? It's delicious, brother-in-law, Xue Ge has made a few clam dumplings here! It's surprisingly delicious! Do you want to open another restaurant in your family? I think Xue Ge is thinking about it! ā
"I'm going to do that too. You, kid. You can figure out what to eat, and in the future, the fat will become a ball, see who marries you! ā
Xia Ziqiu said dotingly, and Xia Xuege stuck out her tongue.
"Then I won't get married, Dad, you can raise me for a lifetime!"
Saying that, he made some jokes again, the old lady Taishang wanted to leave Xia Ziqiu for lunch, but Xia Ziqiu refused. If this is eaten at Zhang's house for the first meal after the exam, Old Man Xia will know about it, and it should not be his mind!
Xia Ziqiu was tired for a long time, although she had to hold Xia Xuege on the way back, but Xia Xuege didn't do it, she was tired enough, and she was walking back with her, Xia Ziqiu was not tired to death, although Liulitun was not far from Xiajia Village, but it would take an hour to walk back. And why didn't the two of them take the car......
Looking at the big fat wolf following behind him, Xia Xuege was speechless and followed a wolf. Which coachman would dare to let them ride in the car?
After walking for an hour, the two of them finally arrived home, opened the door, thinking that there would be no one living in the house for almost a week, how much dust had fallen in the house, Xia Xuege was busy wiping the house, Xia Ziqiu was busy cooking, the two of them were busy, and the voices of Old Man Xia and Liang's came from the yard!
"Ziqiu! It's back! How's the test? ā
Old Man Xia asked with a smile. Xia Xuege complained, Xia Ziqiu's face was obviously not good. This old man Xia didn't ask Xia Ziqiu if he was tired first, but first asked how he did in the exam! But it's also. It's normal to ask like this.
Seeing that Old Man Xia and the Liang family were coming, Xia Ziqiu also went out.
"You did well in the exam, Dad, Mother, you sit in the house, I'm cooking, you can also take a bite, Dad, you have lost a lot of weight these days......
Xia Ziqiu said, greeted Old Man Xia into the house, Liang also came in with a smile, saw Xia Xuege, and said hello.
"Xue Ge, come, this is the egg laid by the chickens in the house, seeing that your father's face is not good, you can cook it for him!"
As Liang spoke, Old Man Xia noticed that Ziqiu's face was not good, and he also asked:
"Ziqiu, you're tired! This is the egg laid by the chickens in the family these days, you eat more, look at your ugly face, Xue Ge, you also know something, don't keep your father worried! ā
Old Man Xia said, Xia Ziqiu shook his head.
"Dad, you and your mother should take these eggs back, I still have a lot of these things at home, there are chickens and ducks in the backyard, there are so many people in the old house, Shiro Goro and Mei'er are growing their bodies, let them eat these things, and the daughter-in-law of Zijun is also pregnant! It all needs to be made up! ā
Xia Ziqiu said, Old Man Xia smiled, and seemed to be very satisfied with Xia Ziqiu's words.
"Okay, then Dad won't force it, by the way, Ziqiu, your second uncle is back, but he is not in good health, and he wants to come to see you, I was afraid that he would give you his illness, so I didn't let him come!"
"Dad, I'll clean up the house and go to see the second uncle......"
Xia Ziqiu said, Old Man Xia's mention reminded him of Xia Tianshou going to Zhang's house to have a child......
"Dad, isn't it good for the second uncle to be in the north, why did he come back suddenly?"
Xia Ziqiu asked, Old Man Xia's face couldn't help but be embarrassed, thought about it, and said:
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that your second uncle and your second aunt have been around for all these years, and they don't have children, and when they come back this time, they want to take a child and give them a pension in the future......"
Old Man Xia said, Xia Ziqiu and Xia Xuege both understood, and Xia Ziqiu said again:
"That father, the second uncle wants to pass on, which child of our clan is it?"
"This ...... Your second uncle wants to find a ...... from our family."
Old Man Xia said, as if there was an implicit meaning, and Liang's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction. Xia Ziqiu nodded, and didn't say anything anymore, the atmosphere was awkward for a while, Xia Xuege looked at it and opened her mouth.
"Dad, let's cook, I'm hungry!"
"Okay, dad will do it right away!"
Xia Xuege said that she was hungry, and Xia Ziqiu remembered that the rice was still in the pot, and when she heard that Xia Ziqiu hadn't eaten yet, Old Man Xia hurriedly said:
"Ziqiu, don't be busy, let's go to the old house with my father to eat, the ribs made at noon, look at your face, Xue Ge, go, go to dinner with grandpa!"
Old Man Xia said, and Liang also smiled:
"Yes, this is back, let's go home and eat, Tingyu misses Xuege, it just so happens that your father recently bought some good wine, you two sip a week!"
said with a face, but his eyes kept looking at Xia Ziqiu, as if he was looking at something, but Xia Xuege didn't want to go, and dragged Xia Ziqiu and said:
"Dad, I want to eat the shrimp you made......"
It seemed like he was playing a little temper again, but Xia Ziqiu knew that Xia Xuege was unwilling to go to the old mansion, and said to Old Man Xia and the Liang family:
"Dad, mother, forget it, I'm going to be out of the pot here, I'm drinking with my dad another day, and I haven't been back for a few days, and the house needs to be cleaned up!"
"That's okay, but your second uncle, you better go back and have a look early!"
Liang said, and left with the old man Xia, although it is already afternoon, but this person is in good spirits on happy occasions, Xia Ziqiu also finished the exam this time, whether he can show off his talents, it depends on his ability, and the family is now more relaxed, and the two of them have already thought of one place in some aspects.
"Xue Ge, how many ways do you eat that hot pot?"
Xia Ziqiu asked, if he is admitted, he will marry Zhou Yuanchun, although Zhou Yuanchun is married to him, but he can't be bitter Zhou Yuanchun is not, these three rites and six appointments, he doesn't plan to be simple, and hearing Xia Ziqiu ask about hot pot, Xia Xuege smiled, recalling the hot pot in his previous life.
"Dad, if you want to say how many ways to eat, that's a lot, there are seafood side pots, chrysanthemum hot pots, assorted hot pots, mountain mushroom hot pots, as well as fat cow hot pots, mutton hot pots, but Dad, if we open a store, I will build yƬ, just get a way to eat, slowly business is good, there are more people, when customers eat a little single, let's put on new tricks." This will also ensure business and retain people! ā
Xia Xuege said, Xia Ziqiu nodded, and said:
"You're right, it's good for business, and our family's money is not very rich now, and we can't toss too many tricks, I see that the mutton hot pot you made last time was delicious, let's make that!" It just so happened that your grandson was going to the south, and he didn't do the inn, and asked me if I wanted to redeem it! ā
"Uncle Sun didn't do it? His inn business isn't very good! ā
Xia Xuege was puzzled, why did Sun You suddenly stop doing business!
"Hehe, business is not as good as children's happiness, why did his son make a fortune in the south, and he wanted to take him to retire! So don't do it! 400 taels to us, he can ask for 100 taels first! The rest, when he comes back next year to worship his ancestors, I will ask for it! ā
Xia Ziqiu said, Xia Xuege nodded, yes, Sun You is not young, it is time to enjoy the blessings of his children, and pay off three hundred taels a year, although it is a bit much, but it can also be repaid! Now the dim sum shop is old and popular, and the profit a year is almost 300 taels!
"Dad, then you agreed?"
"Come back and ask you, I didn't say it, your grandson said let me write to him the day after tomorrow, let's not want it, he will find someone else, your grandson, people are very good!"
Xia Ziqiu's smile was very warm, and Xia Xuege also smiled, it was really better than Xia Zichun!
"That's good, Dad, let's just say it? If you want to open a shop, I'll have to go to a coppersmith to make a pot for hot pot, and we'll have to buy mutton mushrooms and vegetables or something! Also make seasoning sauce! It takes time! I also need six or seven taels of silver! ā
"I'm afraid it's not just six or seven taels, you have to ask for this seafood or something, it just so happens that there is also fish on the beach, let's sum up the two of us at night, and see how much money and how much time it takes to prepare!"
"Okay, by the way, Dad, I look at my grandmother like that, Grandpa Bacheng wants to pass on the fourth uncle!"
Xia Xuege said, thinking of the matter of the Liang family coming with Xia Ziqiu just now, if it was a normal time, even if Xia Ziqiu had a great good thing here, the Liang family would not come, but this show has not yet passed the exam, and the Liang family will send eggs for the first time at that time, which is really unrealistic.
