"I took down a shop, most of the previous guys and stewards have resigned, and now there is a shortage of manpower, I am worried that there is no place to recruit apprentices, you and Zhao Jian can come over and help. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

There are only four Chen Junsheng people sorting out on the bookstore, Xu Tai is experienced, Ah Fu and Ah Gui are all apprentices, after all, there are not enough people, if you add the clever Zhao Kun and Zhao Jian, you can barely run the bookstore.

At this time, Zhao Kun's two families had no home and land, and there were no other incomes, so they could support the two families with the wages of the bookstore, and they didn't have to be left behind.

"Mei Maocai, I know that you are kind enough to take us in...... It's just that my grandfather is sick and I have to take care of him here. ”

Zhao Jian has already received a lot of favors from Mei Xueyan, but he can't afford to repay them, so he doesn't want to block her anymore.

"It's not simple, you two people just move there, the bookstore can't just have a few guys, I went to see, behind the shop is a small courtyard, in addition to the warehouse, there are five or six houses, you two used to be neighbors, you can still take care of each other there, besides, this place is not suitable for Uncle Gao's illness, you don't want to see your grandfather's lung disease getting worse and worse, right?"

Zhao Kun's eyes flashed with tears, because he had just said that he was a dignified man and could not cry, but his nose was sour, and his heart was blocked and warm, Mei Xueyan had no relatives with them and had no reason, but he gave such a great favor, he choked for a while and couldn't say a word, and only secretly determined that he would repay him in the future.

"There are a few people in Zhao Jian's family, you will inform them later, and let's move together."

"His grandfather was washed away by the water, and the bones could not be found, and now there is only a mother, and his mother has good cooking skills, and the food is better than that in the restaurant......"

Old man Zhao patted him on the head and said, "You bastard boy, remember to eat!" Mei Maocai, this is really causing you trouble, when my old bones are not sick, I am a good hand at chopping wood and burning charcoal, and I will never let you feed in vain......"

"I believe this, this is your old man's old business."

Zhao Kun was fast-legged, and immediately went to call his father and Zhao Jian's mother and son over.

His father is a typical rural farmer simple and honest, and his body is strong and should be a person with strength, while Zhao's mother is a little sad and doesn't talk too much, it's right to think about it, her husband went early, there is no head of the family, the flood family is gone a few days ago, her father-in-law is gone, she is a poor widow, and her life must be hard.

She is not very old, she looks no more than thirty, because of the hard work, she looks four or five years old, and she is called Zhao Niang.

"What are you doing standing? Thank you not yet! Uncle Zhao hated the iron and poked Zhao Jian's father.

Zhao Jian's father was grateful when he heard that the owner had taken him in, and said honestly: "The owner, I have a lot of strength and can do heavy work, if there is anything to move and carry in the future, just call me."

Zhao Niang also nodded, Mei Xueyan felt that they were like a couple.

"Zhao Niang, I'm ...... We can be neighbors again. ”

Zhao Jian and his father looked at Zhao Niang happily, but Zhao Niang dodged his gaze and moved half a step to the side.

There was no delay at the moment, the two families took their luggage and belongings to the bookstore in Yongle Lane, in fact, there were not many belongings, only some clothes, and renting a carriage was enough.

"The owner is back."

Xu Taizheng led Ah Fu Agui to empty the original furnishings and old books of the bookstore, and greeted each other one by one. The bookstore has almost been emptied, and because the shop is on the corner of the street, it is equivalent to the size of two shops.

"This is a new guy, I'll take them to set up a room, and let's eat dinner together, just as our opening feast."

Lin Saburo shouted outside, "Won't you invite me in and sit?"

"What are you doing in here? It's a complicated day, but I don't have time to greet you. ”

Lin Sanlang pouted, he used to be stunned and broke in, but now he has learned to be obedient and no longer acts recklessly.

When I was depressed, I heard Mei Xueyan say again: "It's empty another day, I'll go to you to learn how to ride a horse."

Lin Saburo stepped on the second dog with satisfaction and left in high spirits.

Mei Xueyan herself didn't come to the courtyard behind her to see, what surprised her was that it was more spacious than she imagined, there were five main houses on the east side, two side rooms on each side, and a big locust tree in the center of the yard, which would bloom in another month.

Mrs. Chen had already moved her belongings from Jixiang Restaurant, and was carrying a bucket of water to clean the window lattice.

"Mother Chen, there are no things in the wing, right? Gotta free up for the new guys. ”

"No, it's very empty, and the furniture is readily available, I thought it would be a pity that such a big yard was empty, but now it's lively, and I finally don't want to live in that expensive restaurant."

What Mrs. Chen cares about the most is the daily room money at Jixiang Restaurant, which makes her feel distressed to death.

Mei Xueyan also sighed with emotion, after two or three months, she has her own courtyard, and she finally doesn't have to float outside, like a rootless duckweed, no one to settle down.

Now that I finally have a sense of belonging, I have no family and relatives, and I will not be so lonely with the Zhao family and the bookstore guys.

"Mother Chen, you take them to buy bedding and mosquito nets, and get to know each other by the way."

Mrs. Chen put down the rag and wiped her hands and said, "Okay, I'll go get the key for them."

"By the way, you can take more money to the vegetable market, and make a hearty meal today."

There is no need for Mei Xueyan to explain, Mrs. Chen has worked as an errand in the mansion anyway, and everything can be done properly.

The two families arranged the residence, Zhao Niang was not idle, took the initiative to go to the stove room with Mrs. Chen, not long after, there was an attractive fragrance of vegetables overflowing, Zhao Niang's craftsmanship is very sophisticated, it took less than an hour, a large table of good dishes has been arranged, steamed fish, braised pork, braised pig's feet are all colorful, fragrant.

"After so many years in the bookstore, the food has never been as good as it is today." Chen Junsheng smacked his lips and said.

Xu Tai said with a red face: "That is, with different owners, the benefits are different."

"Although we have different surnames, we will be family members in the same room from now on."

Mei Xueyan invited everyone to touch glasses, and she took a sip without drinking.

Zhao Jian's father picked up vegetables for Zhao Niang, but Zhao Niang took the bowl aside to hide, Mei Xueyan found that Zhao Jian and his father usually took great care of Zhao Niang, but Zhao Niang deliberately distanced himself.

After asking, Old Man Zhao said that they are all widowers and widows, and they have usually taken care of each other for so many years.

Old man Zhao originally wanted to match them and let them have a companion for each other, even Zhao Jian and Zhao Kun's two children agreed very much, but unfortunately Zhao Niang never agreed, she may not have no friendship, but she was afraid that people would chew the root of their tongues, and everyone would be stabbed in the back.
