The opening of the tea house (2)

There were many voices of satisfaction in the store, everyone was happy, and many people sat at a table to discuss what Ji Mi said just now, "Is it true that you said Miss Mi said?" โ€

"You mean donating things in exchange for letters?" The man seriously analyzed for others, "I see, it is Miss Mi who is earning our reputation for the divine envoy and herself, there will definitely be no fake, and you don't know that this Miss Mi has a good heart and often gives porridge to the homeless outside the city gate, it must be true." When everyone heard him say this, they all had a good impression of Ji Mi in their hearts.

Her good deeds are also resounding all over the northern moon, and the beggar calls Huazi who doesn't know Ji Mi, and she doesn't have a shelf, and when she sees a child, she will pick it up and tease her to give some sugar crisp or other small snacks, unlike some other young ladies, although it is soup kitchen, but she is arrogant and looks down on the poor.

On the first day of opening the store, Ji Mi received countless praises, but there were still people who were unwilling to admit her success, "I also said that she was better than the master of Crispy Xiangzhai, and she felt average when she ate it." Sure enough, ordinary people are ordinary people, and they just send away a little thing. Several rich children next to him echoed the man who spoke, Ji Mi didn't bother to pay attention to them, but most of the ordinary people sitting around him were unhappy and didn't dare to get angry when they heard this, in case they offended any official children, it was not to find fault for themselves.

"Ah Mi! Sister-in-law! Xu Ran appeared outside the store with a big box, "We're here to cheer you on, this is what we sent together." Ji Mi took the things in his hand and asked Lan Xiang to quickly invite them in, "Come on, what else do you bring, what I told you last time was a joke." โ€

Wen Guyue said seriously: "How can we come empty-handed when you open a store, open it and take a look, you should like it." Ji Mi opened the box, and inside were two framed pictures of two kinds of flowers in Meilan, "This is?" โ€

"It's the work of a master." Ji Mi found the signature in the lower left corner of the scroll, Wang Qianqiu. She seems to have seen the name somewhere, ah, yes! There is a painting in Zixun's study that also has this name underneath, since Zixun collects his calligraphy and paintings, then this person must be a rare genius.

"Thank you, you know that I like flowers, and I specially found a master's masterpiece of Mei Lan." People thought that she would hang the painting at home, but who knew that Ji Mi would hang the painting directly in the store, and she didn't forget to thank the few people who gave the gift after hanging it.

Xu Ran came on an empty stomach, just to eat a bite of Ji Mi's praised dim sum, "Sister-in-law, you're welcome, give me a snack, I want to eat and see what the taste is so that you can keep your heart on your lips all day long." โ€

A few people were like ordinary people, they found a table on the first floor and sat together, without the slightest shelf, and the people around them looked at Ji Mi with admiration when they saw this.

There were five plates of dim sum on the table, and the first thing Xu Ran ate was the pea yellow recommended by Ji Mi, "Oh my God... Where did you find the dim sum chef? So delicious? He couldn't stop after eating the first bite, and he swept away a few plates of dim sum on the table in an instant, and the others didn't eat a bite.

Ji Mi was surprised by his pig-like appetite, and ordered someone to bring it up, and the people who had been watching them next to him saw that Xu Ran, who was the son of Zuo Xiang's concubine, was so appreciative, not only slapped those people in the face just now, but also showed that although they were ordinary people, their tongues were right, and delicious was delicious.

Liu Ziqing has never liked sweets, but pinched a piece of pea yellow and put it in his mouth, and his satisfied expression made Ji Mi very useful, "Yes, it melts in your mouth, sweet but not greasy, the taste is cool, and it is a good product." Several people praised Chen Delin's craftsmanship, and they all praised Chen Delin embarrassed, doesn't this also show that Ji Mi deserves to open a hundred taels of silver.

"I heard someone say it wasn't delicious just now, and I don't know who has a dog's mouth and nothing to eat." Pan Changning's ears were sharp, and he naturally heard the conversation of the group of rich children, and now he could be regarded as giving Ji Mi a sigh of relief.

"I heard that Mi'er is going to open a soup kitchen next to it?" Wen Guyue asked her while eating, and Ji Mi snorted, "That's right, there are too many poor people in Beiyue, and this soup kitchen is not only open to beggars, but also to those who are homeless and have nothing to eat." A few of you rich people, don't you hear about my enthusiastic donations? โ€

I heard it~ Several people said in unison, can she Ji Mi Miss Chrysostom not agree.

Poofโ€”ha, "You guys really are." โ€

A group of young ladies are talking and laughing, and the tea curie is a lively scene that is not found in many shops.

At this time, Wen Guyue proposed to Ji Mi, "Isn't there a few useless Zhuangzi in the suburbs where A-Ning is?" I think that some children can't get education, and if they have a meal and no next meal, this can't work, Ah Mi might as well open a special Zhuangzi to help those homeless children, so as to train capable subordinates. โ€

This proposal... Why didn't she think of it, or Wen Guyue was so thoughtful that she could even think of this layer, if there was a person with a clean background, she would soon become her own subordinate after a lot of training, and she could help her collect intelligence or do some other things, Ji Mi added tea for Wen Guyue, "It is worthy of Ah Yue." โ€

On the other hand, Xu Ran was still gobbling up, Ji Mi disgusted, "How long has it been since he eaten......" Pan Changning is the favorite of several people, and he has never seen Xu Ran's appearance, "I just came out of the forbidden land of the family, I may be really hungry." โ€

The children of the big family all know that the family forbidden land, it is really a hellish existence, whether you have enough food in it is a small problem, and the most important thing is that the threat to life is great, and those who can enter the forbidden land are the best in the entire family.

On that day, many people in Beiyue knew that Ji Mi's tea house was officially opened, and they all heard that she tasted good, even on the second day, the store was crowded, and there was an endless stream of guests.

But what made Ji Mi distressed was that she still hadn't found this tea maker.

"What a shop!" Ji Mi was doing things inside, and she heard someone shouting outside, and when she came out, she saw that it was a woman who was dressed quite richly, but she couldn't get to the point of being a rich lady, it turned out to be a little girl, Ji Mi was funny in her heart, but she still asked, "What's wrong?" But my guy went wrong? โ€

"Why are they so much cheaper than me for dim sum?" The little girl pointed to a few women and children, Ji Mi saw a lot of patches on their clothes, the child was obviously frightened by her, and hugged the child to tease her, "This little girl is so good-looking, isn't she a little happy?" Come and give my sister a smile~Laugh a~"

The child is sensitive, knowing that Ji Mi is a kind sister, showing two little tiger teeth and smiling sweetly, Ji Mi saw that there was no fear on her face, turned her head and said to the girl, "There are indeed two kinds of prices, and the one with plenty of money is the normal price." For those who are living in poverty, I explained to the shopkeeper in the store, and it all depends on the situation, which can be regarded as a little welfare for the people. "The things in her store are good and cheap, and the price will be lower for the poorer people, which is equivalent to giving it away for free.

"Doing business should be the same price, and Tong Su is not bullied. How can there be two prices for doing business. The little girl had a loud voice and attracted a lot of people from outside.

Ji Mi was not afraid of people's accusations, and said loudly: "We should really say that we should do business." But for those who can afford it, I am indeed a price, for the poor is another price, if it is a beggar, I can even give it away for free, this is a special care for the bottom people, I have money, I open a store, I love how to set, the big deal you don't buy, and the poor people grab welfare, are you embarrassed? Will the face be red? โ€

In fact, she didn't make this decision at first, but only one day after the store opened, she found that there would be younger beggars standing at the door of her store and watching, adults can control their mouths, but many children are born with sweets, and seeing that they just keep Ji Mi's soft heart, they set this rule.

It's also funny, even if Ji Mi sets this rule, many hungry beggars will not reach out to her to ask for things, and when she comes to open the store every day, Ji Mi will also find that there are good things sent by beggars at the door that they can get their hands on.

"You yourself say that you have two sets of standards, so you should blush." Ji Mi couldn't make sense with her, so she simply stopped doing her business, and took the snacks that had been wrapped in her hand, "Shopkeeper Lin, return the silver to her, this business will not be done." โ€

The shopkeeper ordered the little girl to go out, and the girl returned to the house and was reprimanded by her own lady, this young lady has eaten a mouthful of tea since the day the store opened, and she can't forget it at all, but she didn't expect to send a gatekeeper to buy it today, "Useless waste, are we a small household short of silver?" โ€

I broke up with others for a little money, but fortunately Ji Mi didn't know her, so I would send a capable maid to buy it again.

"Miss......" Ji Mi was helping the guy clean up the tables and chairs, when she heard someone calling her outside.

The woman was in rags, holding a thin baby in her arms, and the woman knelt in front of her when she saw Ji Mi come out, "Miss, I heard that you have a good heart and often help homeless people like us, I beg you, Miss, help me, I haven't eaten for a few days, and I have no milk... My children are dying of hunger..."The woman lifted the wrap that blocked the baby, and Ji Mi asked her a few words, only to know that this should have been a three-month-old child, but when he saw fat, he was as thin as a bean sprout.

"Come on in." Ji Mi asked her to take her to the place where the guy lived behind the tea house, "You wait here first, someone will bring you food later." โ€

The woman coaxed the child to wait behind, and after a while, Chang'an came in to give her goat milk and food, "The goat milk has been boiled by our young lady, and now it is just right to warm it for the child to drink, but she said that the three-month-old child is still too young and has not developed well, and it is not good to drink too much goat milk, so we have prepared crucian carp soup for you with milk, and there are still after drinking, then I will go first." "This kind of thing shouldn't have been done by her, after all, it was the big girl next to Ji Mi, who was dedicated to taking care of Ji Mi, but Ji Mi thought of how to say that people are also mothers with children, and it is not appropriate to use men, so Ji Mi can rest assured that Chang'an will let her come.

"Thank you, thank you, kind young lady." The woman wanted to kneel down again, but was stopped by Chang'an, "Don't thank you, let's drink soup first, I can't even eat the child after being hungry for so long." Later, Chang'an sent the woman stewed pig's trotters and a big bowl of rice and two steamed buns.

The child drank goat's milk and slept on the bed with peace of mind, the woman didn't have to hold the child, she ate wolf, and she was hungry for a long time, "Miss Mi is really a rare living Bodhisattva in Beiyue, I can't live anymore outside the city, I heard others say that it is really difficult to come to Miss Mi, she won't care, I originally just gave it a try, but I didn't expect Miss Mi to be a living Bodhisattva!" "Crucian carp soup pig's trotters, this is something she can't even think of.

"Why are you living so hard, haven't you received the money allocated by the emperor to help the poor?" Chang'an asked her, but when the woman heard it, she immediately stuffed the last bite of steamed buns into it, and looked at her in surprise, "The emperor still allocated silver to us?" We never knew. โ€

I never know, Chang'an obviously heard what Miss said, the emperor will allocate a batch of silver every year to help the poor, but I didn't expect it to be in the hands of people at all, Chang'an understood, and pushed the soup forward, "Don't just eat dry steamed buns, drink some soup, crucian carp soup, our young lady specially instructed the kitchen to make it for you to milk." โ€

"Hey!" She drank it, and the woman helped Chang'an put the dishes and chopsticks back in the kitchen after eating. Chang'an asked her to go around by herself, and if she didn't want to turn around, she would accompany the child, and she went to find Miss to restore her life.

"Heh, sure enough, I'm curious, why are there so many poor people in the Beiyue disaster, it turns out that the officials protect each other and embezzle the relief money." She wanted to see who were so black-hearted that they were greedy for the money of the poor.

Last year, it rained heavily in the north of the northern month, flooding a lot of villages, these people were originally relying on farming to eat, were washed by the water, the fields were gone, the houses were washed away, and they became homeless.

It's not that they haven't heard that the emperor is going to send money for disaster relief, but after waiting for a long time for the money to come down, many people gradually lost confidence in the emperor and these officials.

"Miss, he's here to deliver something." Lan Xiang whispered in Ji Mi's ear, "This person is the youngest son of the Wenguo Mansion. "Ouch, why are you so annoying, since Ji Mi said those words, many princes and disciples have come to her eyes to be familiar, and they want to be able to make a good face in front of Ji Mi, and in the future, they can ask for someone to go to the divine envoy.

But the more this kind of her, the more she Ji Mi doesn't want to see her, and she tends to be more villainous.

But everyone is here, so let's still smile on my face, "It turned out to be the little son of the Wenguo Mansion, there is a good reward for my kindness, Ji Mi wrote it down." "That's what he wants, Ji Mi said she wrote it down, then there's nothing more to say, the two exchanged a few words and left.

After a tired day, Ji Mi finally went back to rest inside, and just after staring for a while, she heard the sound of quarrels outside.

"Can you speak quietly?! This is a teahouse, not a restaurant, what are you doing here! โ€

"The store is not opened by your family, and the shopkeeper of the National People's Congress doesn't care, it's your business, let me tell you little calf not to meddle in your business, be careful that Lao Tzu finds someone to beat you."

Ji Mi's brain was about to explode, the two big men quarreled, and she stepped forward to stop and was almost pushed to fight.

"What's the noise?! Shut up! Ji Mi used her success power, and her voice was much louder, "Don't come to the noisy again." The two of them couldn't afford to mess with Ji Mi, so they could only sit down stupidly.

Ji Mi really convinced these people, and the working people who usually babble don't make noise, just those who like to speak in a rough and atmospheric manner, thinking that this is where they are.

Now she just wants to go back to the house and get a good night's sleep, hand over the things in the store to Laurel Lanxiang, and go back to Ji's mansion alone to sleep all day.

When I woke up the next day, it was already noon, Ji Mi didn't go to the store, and took Chang'an to the suburbs to see Pan Changning's farmstead, "Not bad, it's big, it's so big, you help me pay attention to it, if there are capable women who must be brought here to live, and then here will accept some orphans and little beggars who no one cares about, understand?" If there is not enough place to live, then tell me and I will find another house. โ€

"Yes, Miss." You Ye received the order, Ji Mi thought of something and called him out, "Find two more gentlemen, teach them to read and write, and two embroidery girls, teach the girls to be red." On weekdays, let them grow some vegetables to be self-sufficient, and if they can't finish eating, they will take them out and sell them. If the female red is fine, she can embroider some small purse sachets or something, and if she is a woman, she can make some clothes for the children. โ€

She can't think of anything else, so let's just do it for the time being.

When the time comes, put some chickens, and drag two little pigs over, the chickens can lay eggs, the pigs can be fattened and killed, and they can be sold, anyway, they can do whatever they like.

"Sister Mi!" The women had just returned from washing their clothes by the river with a group of children, and the children pounced on her as if they were crazy when they saw Ji Mi.

"Hahahaha, don't tickle your sister, how about it, are you comfortable? Is there anything you need to bring your sister next time. "The children took her inside and poured her tea themselves," said the elder sister. โ€

Ji Mi looked at this group of children, although they are not as good as the children of large families, but they are innocent and kind, which is what children should look like. Now the children of large families are all like small adults, and they have lost the purity they should have at their age.

Xiaohuzi squeezed to her side with great effort, took Ji Mi's hand and made love, "Sister Ah Mi hasn't come often lately, Xiaohuzi misses her sister." โ€

"Hahaha, you are the most naughty, have you listened to your aunts?"

One of the women touched the little tiger's head, "He is well-behaved now, and if he has something to eat, let the little one eat first." โ€

"Yes, then look at you guys so well-behaved, I'll bring you delicious and fun next time, okay?" Ji Mi hugged every child, she weighed a lot, and her face didn't look yellow, she was healthy like a normal child.

"Good!" A room of laughter and laughter can even melt away the winter ice, in fact, in the present world, Ji Mi often donates to various public welfare platforms, and sometimes even follows the public welfare team to play with children in the mountain village.

She also hopes that more people will pay attention to these fatherless, motherless, homeless children, who have no choice to be born, but they long for someone to care for and have a warm home like ordinary children.
