Chapter 23 Work together to become well-off

Lin Mo left after explaining this, Zhao En looked at his wife and asked a little puzzled: "We finally settled down, and no one here recognizes us, if we go to Qiannan, there are many people, what if we are found by those people?" ”

Sister-in-law Zhao looked at Xiao Heng, who was reading a book, and said calmly

"You can't be like this for the rest of your life, even if the two of us don't care, we should always think about Xiao Heng, do you really want him to hide in Tibet like us for the rest of his life? This time we went to Chenan because Xiao Mo was helping us, so we can't live up to his kindness. As long as we pay attention, no one should recognize us. ”

"But if those people find it, we can't get out of it ourselves, and we may even affect Xiao Mo."

Zhao En said with some concern. "If that's the case, it's a big deal that the fish dies and the net is broken, and it can't affect Xiao Mo." Looking at his wife's firm eyes, and then at his son who was studying seriously, Zhao En nodded heavily, and then began to get busy.

Lin Mo then came to Liu Kui's house, and when he pushed the door in, he found that the mourning hall had been withdrawn, and Liu Kui and Liu Xin'er were cleaning in the house. Seeing Lin Mo coming in, Liu Kui hurriedly stepped forward when he saw Lin Mo, and then knelt down with a thud. Lin Mo was suddenly frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Kui.

Liu Kui pushed Lin Mo's hand away and said: "If Lin Mo hadn't been for you this time, I might have been sentenced and beheaded, Xin'er and her mother would not have died, and you were seriously injured this time, you are my great benefactor, please accept my worship." As she spoke, she kowtowed heavily to Lin Mo, and Liu Xin'er followed Liu Kui to Lin Mo as well. After kowtowing, Liu Xin'er helped Liu Kui up, and then asked Lin Mo to sit in the house.

After Lin Mo entered the house, he looked at some messy furnishings in the house, and there was a strange box full of all kinds of knives used to kill pigs.

Liu Kui said a little embarrassed: "I've been busy these days, and I don't have time to clean, so I'm going to clean up with Xin'er when I'm finally free today." I've thought about it now, I won't sell pork in the future, others say that killing too much damage to yin virtue, I didn't care about it, but after this incident, I got in touch, do more good deeds and kill less, change jobs, and accumulate some yin virtue for my son. ”

Lin Mo was stunned for a moment and asked, "Uncle Liu, then what are you going to do in the future?" ”

Liu Kui shook his head and said: "I haven't thought about it for the time being, but I definitely won't kill anymore, maybe do some small business or open a tavern in the town, Xin'er's mother is gone, I have to guard it here, so that Xin'er at least has a home." ”

Liu Xin'er's eyes turned red again when she heard this.

Lin Mo thought for a while and said, "Uncle Liu, what do you think of food as the sky?" Liu Kui thought for a while, "The business in the town is the best for food, and people come and go every day, I can't imagine that you can make the restaurant so good." ”

Lin Mo then said that he was going to Chennan, and Zhao En, the current shopkeeper of Shi Weitian, would go with him, and then said

"Now that Shiweitian lacks a shopkeeper, I don't know if Uncle Liu is willing to help me." Liu Kui was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Mo to let him be the shopkeeper, Liu Kui lowered his head and thought about it.

Lin Mo then said: "Uncle Liu, now the profit of Shiweitian every month is good, if Uncle Liu is willing to help me with at least ten taels of wages every month, and when the profit is high, he will give you a salary increase, do you think it is appropriate?"

Liu Xin'er was very surprised when she heard this, her monthly salary in the Ma family was already high, but it was only four taels of silver per month, and Lin Mo's breath was her salary for more than two months.

Liu Kui was also stunned, Lin Mo's one-month salary was worth half a year's profit from selling pork. However, since Lin Mo said it, he still has confidence, and Liu Kui still trusts this very much.

Liu Kui knew that since Lin Mo had decided, he would not change it.

Liu Kui looked at Lin Mo with a serious look, and finally nodded heavily

"Lin Mo, although I have never done this business, but I promise to do my best to manage good food for the day, in the future, you will be my shopkeeper, I will call you Lin shopkeeper or the master" said and solemnly bowed to Lin Mo,

Lin Mo hurriedly helped Liu Kui up, "In the future, we will be equivalent to a family, in the future, I will call you Uncle Liu, you can call me Lin Mo or Xiao Mo, don't be so restrained." ”

Lin Mo and Liu Kui had no choice but to give up and call Lin Mo Xiao Mo.

Lin Mo asked Uncle Liu to go on a trip to eat in the afternoon, and he would explain some things and do a good job of handover, and then he planned to leave.

Liu Xin'er stopped in front of the door and Lin Mo was reluctant to let him go, and Uncle Liu also pulled Lin Mo and said, "Thanks to you this time, no matter what, I have to keep you for a meal, and I will regard it as a thank you for it." With that, he directly pulled Lin Mo to the table, let Lin Mo sit here, and then went to the kitchen with Liu Xin'er to get busy.

After waiting for a long time, the two came in with the dishes, Lin Mo hurriedly stepped forward and continued, several people sat around the table, Liu Kui said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, these days are all vegetarian food, there is no big fish and meat." ”

Lin Mo looked at the fragrant dishes on the table and said with a smile: "It's okay, looking at these is much better than any kind of fish, I didn't expect Uncle Liu's craftsmanship to be so good, it makes people feel appetizing when they see it." Xin'er is also good, which ones are made by Xin'er, I'll try it. ”

Liu Xin'er whispered with a flushed face: "I'll help you fight." Lin Mo understood at a glance, and said with a smile: "In the future, Xin'er will have to find a husband who can cook, otherwise eating will be a big problem." ”

Uncle Liu laughed: "It's also my fault for me and his mother, who have been spoiling her, reluctant to let her do these dirty work, and take care of her like a big lady." ”

Liu Xin'er was a little embarrassed at first, but when she heard that her mother was mentioned, her face suddenly darkened.

Lin Mo hurriedly diverted the topic, "Uncle Liu, Shi Weitian is now buying some simple noodles and selling some wine and vegetables, and when I go in the afternoon, let Brother Zhao tell you in detail, we are now in the right place and the right place, and the business is prosperous, but we have to pay attention, and when you take over, you have to recruit a few more familiar guys, you must know the roots, don't be stumped by others." ”

Liu Kui nodded when he heard this, and then Lin Mo was relieved.

Several people were talking and laughing while eating, during which Lin Mo deliberately told some jokes from his previous life, teasing Liu Xin'er and making her tremble. Liu Kui looked at his daughter and didn't know what he was thinking. After the three of them finished eating, Lin Mo asked Liu Xin'er when she would go back, originally according to the rules here, after the death of her parents, her children should be filial piety for three years, and she should not marry a wife for three years, but Liu Xin'er has been sold into another family, although she has not officially registered in the official mansion, she is still regarded as someone else's slave, so she does not have to mourn for her parents.

In fact, once a large family buys a slave, they ask no longer to have too much contact with their relatives, including the death of their parents and relatives, they may not be allowed to go home to participate in the funeral, wear linen and wear filial piety, and they are disgusted with this bad luck.

However, the Ma family is more open-minded and benevolent, and Liu Xin'er has a close relationship with Ma Ruoya, so Liu Xin'er was allowed to go home to fulfill her filial piety. Liu Xin'er has been home for almost ten days and should go back, so Liu Xin'er decided to go back tomorrow.

Lin Mo delayed for another two days, and then returned to Chennan. In the afternoon, Liu Kui and Lin Mo went to Shiweitian to prepare for the handover, Liu Xin'er originally wanted to go together, but Liu Kui didn't let her, and asked her to pack up at home and prepare to go back tomorrow, Liu Xin'er pouted helplessly and grimaced at Lin Mo and went back to the house to pack up her things.

After Lin Mo and Liu Kui went out, Liu Kui took out the lock and locked the door.

Lin Mo looked a little surprised, Liu Kui explained: "These days, many relatives and friends come to mourn, so the door has never been closed, and now no one is coming, you have to lock the door when you go out, otherwise I really don't know what to do if there are three long and two short." ”

After speaking, he also tugged on the lock and found that the lock was tight before leaving. Lin Mo looked at Liu Kui's lonely back and was a little touched, this may be the helplessness and remorse of a husband and a father.

The two came to Shiweitian, Zhao En and his wife and the guys in the shop were busy, although it was already afternoon, the business in the shop was still very good, and many people came specially for the Yangzhou dishes made by Zhao En and his wife.

When the two saw Lin Mo and Liu Kui coming, they hurriedly welcomed the two to the tavern, and Lin Mo and the four of them sat at a table.

Lin Mo said directly to the point: "Brother Zhao will hand over this shop to Uncle Liu in the future, the two of you will go to Qiannan after a while, I will take care of the shop and other things in Chennan first, and then open it, this is my biggest plan at present, if we can gain a firm foothold in Chennan, then we will all be able to live a well-off life in the future." ”

"A well-off life?" Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Lin Mo explained: "It means that the family has surplus food and money in the pocket, so you can go to the restaurant from time to time." ”

When everyone heard this, they laughed understandingly.

Lin Mo continued: "In the past few days, Uncle Liu has been operating with Brother Zhao, first familiarizing himself with it, especially the practice of fritters, and then asking Brother Zhao to hand over some dishes to Uncle Liu, so as to ensure that the business of the tavern can continue as usual after you leave." The crowd nodded.

Lin Mo then personally demonstrated the method of fritters to Liu Kui, and then several people got busy together.

Until the sky gradually darkened, Lin Mo packed a box of food and Zhao En's dishes and Liu Kui left first, and the two walked on the gravel road in the town, Liu Kui asked, "It takes a lot of money to open a tavern in the county, right?"

Lin Mo thought for a while and said: "The shop was rented to me by the Ma family, it didn't cost anything, it cost some money to renovate it, plus the others have more than a hundred taels." Liu Kui nodded, walked for a while, and Lin Mo and Liu Kui separated.

When Lin Mo came home, his grandfather was already cooking, Lin Mo hurriedly beckoned his grandfather to come over for dinner, and then put the food in the food box on the table.

Grandpa looked at it and smiled: "This is Zhao En's doing, I know that he made it when I smell it." Lin Mo looked at his grandfather suspiciously,

Grandpa stroked his beard and said, "You are not at home like this, Zhao En came to see me, and specially brought a few dishes that are the best at it." I have to say that he is still very filial, and you really chose the right person when you handed over the store to him to take care of. ”

Lin Mo nodded in agreement when he heard this, Zhao En's character Lin Mo never doubted. The grandfather and grandson chatted one after another, Lin Mo hadn't eaten so at ease for a long time since he opened the shop, and it felt good to have a home.
