Chapter 300: An Incompetent Daughter-in-law
is also a showman, not to mention that Li Fuzi makes money to support himself, and even the examination room fee is earned back by himself.
Look at Gu Minghui again, he won't do anything except reach out to his family to ask for silver.
Gu Mingzhu sometimes thinks that if there was no person from the Gu family's old mansion to support him, would he, the powerless third uncle, starve to death?
The store is decorated by Gu Mingzhu in imitation of a modern supermarket, and there is a table at the entrance of the store like the cash register, and there is a scale on the table, which is specially used for vegetables, and there are two drawers under the table for money.
There are wooden cabinets in the middle and around the store, and inside the cabinet is a grid of spaces, which are specially used to store vegetables, so that people can see at a glance what vegetables are placed on them.
The customer can take the vegetables directly from the empty compartment and weigh them on the table at the door to pay.
Chu Jing has never seen this kind of layout, all the counters are open, isn't he afraid of many people.
Gu Mingzhu smiled, pointed to the table at the door and said, "Everyone who buys food has to weigh and pay on the table, as long as the door is closed, this situation will not occur, you see, the passage into the door is unimpeded, and a person guards the crossing, only entering and not leaving."
The entrance and exit are separated by a one-and-a-half-meter-high wooden plank, and the exit passage is only allowed for one person to pass through, and you can only leave the table after paying for the food, so as to avoid the problem of taking the sheep by the hand.
This shop needs a total of four people to take care of, one person guards the entrance, one person guards the exit, the person sitting at the table weighs the scales to collect money, and there is also a special vegetable sorting officer, who is responsible for adding vegetables to the empty vegetable space. Make sure that each space is full of vegetables.
In this way, the entire store needs four people, and four can be responsible for the vegetable trading equivalent to a vegetable market.
That is, if you weigh the scales and settle accounts, you have to find someone who can calculate accounts smartly. Do you have someone for this
Gu Mingzhu asked Chu Jingdao.
"Let Xuemei and Xuexiang come! Xuexiang can settle accounts, Xuemei is steady, both of them can work hard, and if someone comes to make trouble, they can cope with it. In addition, just transfer two more people with quick hands and feet to come over. ”
Chu Jing thought that she should transfer some more people from the secret guard camp, otherwise there would be not enough manpower, Xue Xiang, Xue Xiang would be transferred to this shop, and there would be no one around the little girl to protect her.
Thinking that she should send both Yunxiao and Yunchi to her, she just had someone from the dark guard camp on her side to protect her.
After looking at the store, Gu Mingzhu settled the silver used in the decoration, bought a new lock and replaced it, and then returned to Zhengning Village in a carriage with Chu Jing.
Because tomorrow is the day of Gu Chunhua's marriage, Gu Mingzhu, who planned to open the store tomorrow, had to postpone the opening date, Gu Chunhua's marriage was the eighteenth, thinking that the day after tomorrow was the nineteenth, and the odd days were not suitable for the store to open.
Gu Mingzhu set the opening day of the store on the 20th.
Gu Mingzhu didn't understand the specific matters to be prepared for the opening, and asked Chu Jing, where did Chu Jing, a person who only cares about military affairs, know this, and he shook his head and said that he didn't know.
Even the last time she accompanied her back to the door, she asked her mother to figure it out, and after Gu Mingzhu rolled her eyes, she suggested that Gu Mingzhu consult Mrs. Chu, and cultivate the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law by the way.
Gu Mingzhu thought that he hadn't been close to Old Madam Chu for a long time, so he immediately raised his legs and walked towards Old Madam Chu's front yard.
The corners of Chu Jing's lips raised, and he stepped forward to take her hand, "I'll accompany you, I haven't talked to my mother for a long time." ”
Gu Mingzhu looked at him holding his hand and nodded.
Old Madam Chu will definitely be very happy to see Chu Jing!
After passing through a few corridors, crossing an arched door, and then walking towards a bluestone road to the east, I saw three big red tile houses, Gu Mingzhu came to Mrs. Chu's courtyard very few times, and she was really a little ashamed to think about it.
Since entering the gate of Chu's house, Chu except for the night when Chu Jing was injured, the old lady Chu complained that Chu Jing blocked the knife for her, threw her face at her, and said some ugly things.
Later, she didn't embarrass her anymore, compared to Li Yan's daughter-in-law who was rubbed hard by Mrs. Gu, she, the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, was the most relaxed.
According to the rules of ordinary large families, Gu Mingzhu has to greet Mrs. Chu every morning, and I don't know if Gu Mingzhu's daily health soup pleases Mrs. Chu?
It was Chu Jing who said good things for her in front of Old Madam Chu.
Old Madam Chu felt sorry for her, and even waived her daily morning greetings, just saying that she just wanted her to take care of Chu Jing wholeheartedly, and she didn't have to worry about her as an old woman.
Gu Mingzhu felt a little weak in her heart, and always felt that her daughter-in-law was not competent at all.
If you have time, you should accompany Mrs. Chu more, once you are older, you like to be accompanied by someone, even if you don't speak.
Thinking of this, Gu Mingzhu quickened her pace, walked to the front of Old Madam Chu's room, and saw Mama Liu beside Old Madam Chu waiting outside the door of Old Madam Chu's room.
Seeing Gu Mingzhu and Chu Jing coming over, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and saluted, "Young lady, general." The old lady is in the house, and I'll go in and report it. ”
The old lady didn't say anything, but Mama Liu could see that the old lady actually hoped that the young lady and the general would come to see her, the general was busy with affairs, and the old lady was unwilling to delay the general. Although he lived in a room, he did not take the initiative to go to the general.
The young lady doesn't know what she's busy with? If you go out early and return late, the old lady is left alone in the room, cold and deserted, and it is sad to watch.
"No, let's just go in." Chu Jing waved his hand, took Gu Mingzhu and entered the house.
In the room, sandalwood lingered, Mrs. Chu was leaning on the recliner and closing her eyes to recuperate, after this period of nourishment of the health soup, Mrs. Chu looked ruddy, and her body was a lot rounder, to the point of feeling a little childish.
Chu Jing also knew about Gu Mingzhu's bowl of health soup every day, and when he saw that his mother was raised so well, he cast a grateful look at Gu Mingzhu.
Chu Jing doesn't care much about things, Mrs. Chu is the person he cares about the most, he is desperately climbing up in the army, just to make his mother's life better and be respected.
Old Madam Chu was inducted, not long after the two entered the house, their closed eyes suddenly opened, Gu Mingzhu was taken aback, and then immediately stabilized her mind and stepped forward and shouted, "Mother, you are awake." ”
Mrs. Gu slowed down for a while before she sat up from the recliner, and when she saw Gu Mingzhu and Chu Jing, there was surprise in her eyes.
Chu Jing poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mrs. Chu, "Mother, drink tea!"
