Chapter 4 Resolving the Zou Shiyan Crisis
Boss Yao is a businessman, and when he saw that someone was paying for the loss, he naturally wouldn't be unlucky, so he hurriedly removed his feet and asked people to clean up the ice with a smile, "Girl, although this ice cube is broken, I can't lose it, right?" Three taels of silver, didn't sell it for you, did it? ”
Such a big bag of ice cubes, to say the least, has hundreds of catties, three taels of silver.
Tang Chu probably knew the price of the ice cubes.
After paying the money happily, Tang Chu no longer looked at Zou Shiyan, but talked to Boss Yao without a match.
Everyone is a businessman, and although Tang Chu and Tang Fuchang are not ostentatious, the fabrics are excellent, and he is still clear about this.
After chatting for a while, Tang Chu probably figured out the price of ice cubes and the amount of major restaurants, and then said goodbye to Boss Yao and left.
Zou Shiyan was injured and naturally couldn't work anymore, but he didn't leave and waited quietly aside.
Seeing Tang Chu leaving, he slowly followed.
"Miss Tang!"
Zou Shiyan called her.
Tang Chu stopped, this title, Zou Shiyan called it all his life, and the 'Tang Chu' before he died was the only time he called her name.
Now hearing this title again, Tang Chu only felt sarcastic.
Without waiting for Zou Shiyan to speak, Tang Chu spoke first, "Zou Gongzi, I didn't know that the person who broke the ice cube was you, I came here today, it's not because of you, the three taels of silver I bought what I want to know, and it's not for you, so there's no need to feel indebted!" ”
Because of the debt, Zou Shiyan lost his life.
At the same time, she also lost her Tang Chu's life.
In this life, she will not let the tragedy happen again.
Zou Shiyan frowned, his face was a little unnatural, he didn't seem to believe Tang Chu's words very much, but he still squeezed out two words from his throat, "Thank you!" ”
Tang Chu ignored him, turned around and left this place with Tang Fuchang.
After walking a long way, Tang Fuchang secretly asked Tang Chu, "Are you really worried?" ”
Tang Chu shook his head.
It's not that I don't care, but I don't dare!
……
Zou Shiyan broke the ice, and Boss Yao did not pay him the salary for this day, he washed the wounds on his back by the stream near the ice cellar, picked a few herbs and put them on them, and went home as usual.
The second uncle and the second aunt were taking his children to have dinner with Zou Shichu, and when they saw Zou Shichu coming back, the second aunt hurriedly put down the bowl and ran forward, "What about today's salary?" ”
In the past few years, Zou Shiyan has been able to enter the school to study, all of which he earns from working in private.
The second uncle and second aunt said that Zou Shichu was growing and needed to eat better, so he promised to give them all his daily wages.
The second aunt saw that he didn't speak, so she reached out and pulled it around him, but after digging for a long time, she didn't find a copper plate, and the second aunt's face immediately darkened.
"Zou Shiyan, where did you hide your salary?"
Zou Shiyan moved his lips and said lightly, "Lost"
The second aunt was stunned for a moment, but when she realized what he meant, she immediately grabbed Zou Shiyan's clothes and pushed them, "Zou Shiyan, you wolf-hearted thing, you forgot that your father and mother were sick for those years, who gave them the money to treat them?" Who paid the debts you owed? Who gave you the food that you eat in your mouths now? What's wrong with letting you do something? Even if it's to honor the elders, it's not too much, right? ”
In the house, Zou Juan'er, the daughter of the second aunt's family, also chimed in, "That's it, you are all little white-eyed wolves!" ”
Zou Shichu's eyes were red, and he threw the rice bowl in his hand on the table with a 'bang', and then pointed at Zou Juan'er and said, "We are not white-eyed wolves, my father's and mother's money for medical treatment, we sold the house and paid it back, we didn't eat white food at your house, my brother went out to make money, and the money he earned was not only enough for him to study, but also enough to buy vegetables!" ”
These words were heard by Zou Shichu overhearing the conversation between the second uncle and the second aunt.
A small child, his heart is already clear.
Zou Juan'er was yelled at by him like this, and she was so frightened that she lost her job and cried.
The second uncle hurriedly stepped forward to coax, glaring at Zou Shichu viciously with his eyes, "You little rabbit cub, you dare to be fierce Juan'er, believe it or not, I'll drive you out if you're a child tomorrow?" ”
Zou Shichu was so frightened by him that he didn't dare to speak, only his eyes were red, and he lowered his head aggrievedly.
At that end, Zou Shiyan's hand was clenched into a fist tightly in his sleeve, and the green tendons on the back of his hand jumped violently because of his hard work.
Seeing this, the second aunt was even more angry, pointing at Zou Shiyan and said, "I really think that I am my son-in-law, if you don't do it, you deserve to be trampled under your feet every day!" ”
Because he didn't get back a day's wages, Zou Shiyan didn't eat dinner.
At night, Zou Shichu secretly touched a hard-toothed coarse food cake for Zou Shiyan, "Brother, this is made by Aunt Liu from the house next door, Aunt Liu secretly gave it to me, you can eat it quickly!" ”
Zou Shichu and Zou Shiyan are completely two personalities, Zou Shichu has a sweet mouth, and he will shout when he sees his neighbors, so everyone pities her for not having a father and mother since she was a child, and will secretly stuff him with food in private.
Zou Shiyan didn't accept the cake, but he didn't say a word.
For some reason, the five words Tang Chu said came to mind, 'Don't bully young people into poverty'.
"Brother, eat quickly, only after eating can you have the strength to study, and when you get famous, let's leave here, don't be angry with the second uncle and aunt anymore!"
Zou Shichu brought the cake to Zou Shiyan's mouth, with a smile on his face.
Zou Shiyan was depressed in his heart, turned his face slightly, avoided Zou Shichu's feeding, lowered his head, and asked in a voice that he couldn't even hear, "Is Miss Tang really good?" ”
Zou Shichu took advantage of his opening, stuffed the cake into his mouth, and then rolled into the quilt, covered his head and fell asleep.
……
After investigating the price of ice cubes, Tang Chu went to investigate the flour market again, and learned that the flour in October would indeed be short-lived, but it was not short-lived to the point where he couldn't buy the goods, in addition, Tang Chu found that the price given to her by the flour boss was cheaper than the price registered by the shopkeeper Liu by five cents a catty.
Tang Fuchang intended to test his daughter, but he did not express his opinion on this matter, but asked Tang Chu, "What are you going to do next?" ”
Tang Chu said, "I learned that most of the cooks in Tangdong Restaurant are the shopkeepers of Liu, I'm afraid that if we don't use him, those cooks will follow along!" ”
Tang Fuchang nodded, the business of Tangdong Restaurant is the best, but the profit is mediocre, he has long known what the problem is, but in order to keep the signboard of Tangdong Restaurant, over the years, Tang Fuchang has also turned a blind eye.
"Dad, I suggest that Tangdong Restaurant be closed for a month for rectification!"
After thinking for a moment, Tang Chu said very seriously.
Tang Fuchang thought about it, she naturally thought of it, the closure of business is a very big risk, let alone a month, even if it is three or two days, it can only make the restaurant face a crisis.
"Chu Chu, have you decided?"
Tang Fuchang hesitated slightly, and then affirmed her proposal.
After lunch, the two parents went directly to Tangdong Restaurant and announced the news of the closure of business for a month.
Sure enough, the guys in the restaurant all shouted.
"The owner, the business is closed for rectification, where are we going? I still have a family to raise, and besides, the business of our restaurant is so good, why do you want to close down? ”
"That is, if you want to close the business, I won't do it!"
"If you don't do it, it's troublesome for the owner to settle the salary!"
