Chapter 194: She just wants to be a matchmaker
Zhao Fengqi has also been raised in the house for several days, and the pain at the beginning is gone, and now the troupe is waiting for him, and he is in a hurry to get off the ground.
When Sister-in-law Liu came to deliver the meal, she saw that Zhao Fengqi was moving to the side of the bed, and at a glance, she knew that he was going to the ground.
"Want to go to the latrine?" Sister-in-law Liu asked.
Zhao Fengqi shook his head: "No, I want to get off the ground quickly." "It's been half a month, and my injury should be fine.
Sister-in-law Liu came over to help her, and as soon as Zhao Fengqi's feet touched the ground, she felt lightheaded, and her feet and necks didn't hurt, but she didn't have the strength, and such legs couldn't go on stage.
"Can you walk?" Sister-in-law Liu let go of her hand, Zhao Fengqi walked slowly, and nodded: "I can go." ”
"Let's practice, I guess there's nothing wrong with it." Sister-in-law Liu said and went out first.
Zhao Fengqi sighed, ten years of work off the stage, his leg was delayed for three months, and he didn't know how many years of work he would have to subtract.
The weather in Kyoto City is getting hotter and hotter, and Xi Hongdou's spicy crab can also start to sell a wave, this time Xi Mu came with the caravan, and Xi Hongdou is naturally happy.
"I was in Shuobei during the Chinese New Year, and I couldn't go back." Xi Hongdou said.
Xi Mu shook his head: "Now that I am married, I will be in my mother-in-law's house for the New Year." ”
Xi Hongdou didn't want to say this, so he pulled Xi Mu over to sit and asked, "Why did the eldest brother come in person this time?" ”
"Actually, I want to wait until autumn to bring some autumn vegetables to Kyoto City, and my father and mother and your second brother also agree, but it also depends on you." Xi Mu said.
Xi Hongdou asked, "How much do you have to throw away the autumn vegetables when they are transported to Kyoto City?" ”
"Twenty percent." Xi Mu also guessed, he actually felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, after all, now that Xi Hongdou is married, it is okay for Xi Hongdou to do his own business together, but Xi Hongdou's fields in Hexi Prefecture are all planted with cumin-raised crabs and a little grain, and there is no vegetable field at all, so they want to sell these side dishes, they are afraid that Xi Hongdou will not want to do it, and they are also afraid that Xi Hongdou's family will think that Xi Hongdou is too thinking about his mother's family and will be suspicious.
As soon as Xi Hongdou heard it, he asked Lu Zhi to come over to help settle the accounts, asked about the local vegetable prices in Hexi Prefecture, and went to the planting cost and transportation cost, and Lu Zhi gave a number.
"Okay, brother, I will let two caravans go to Hexi Prefecture together in the autumn, and there will be no delay in collecting grain and vegetables." Xi Hongdou said that now the caravan is slowly expanding, and autumn is also the busiest time, so a trip is basically enough.
Xi Mu saw that Xi Hongdou agreed, so he said, "Your mother-in-law won't be suspicious of you because you helped your mother's family, right?" ”
"Huh? Not! Xi Hongdou smiled, Mrs. Xiao was already tolerant of her, although she was always talking, but if she compared it, her mother-in-law would not let her daughter-in-law show up to do business, and now Mrs. Xiao even nodded her head and asked her to do it, and people can't take this matter of buying vegetables to heart.
Xi Mu was relieved, the main purpose of coming this time was to talk about this matter, Xi Hongdou wanted him to go to Xiao's house to live at night, but Xi Mu also refused.
"Don't, that big mansion, I can't sleep all night, I'll just stay here and my buddy for one night." Xi Mu said with a wry smile, he has never dealt with people from the official family, and it doesn't feel right to say anything or do anything, so he doesn't feel comfortable looking for it.
Xi Hongdou didn't force it, and asked Sister-in-law Hu to cook a few good dishes at night, and she didn't go home to eat dinner.
On the other side, Mrs. Xiao waited all the time, and Xiao Zhi asked a little guy to come over and talk back, saying that he would be busy in the yamen at night, and he would not come back to eat, but Xi Hongdou also said that he would not come back to eat, and the two of them sat together, and it was deserted all of a sudden.
"If that child from the red bean was saved, it would be nice now." Mrs. Xiao sighed, it has been three months since the incident, and Xi Hongdou's body should naturally be taken care of, but if she wants to hold her grandson again, she doesn't know when she will go.
Master Xiao said: "It's that our family is not blessed, let's wait." "There is a grandson running around at home to watch it can be lively, Mrs. Xiao used to talk about her grandson every day, he didn't feel so anxious, but now there are only the two of them left, and suddenly he feels that this yard is big and empty.
Mrs. Xiao didn't say anything, but Shao Yulin was pregnant, and she couldn't say anything about it.
The days passed day by day, in a blink of an eye, three months have passed, Xi Hongdou has been busy for a long time, and the troupe can finally take the stage.
"If the pictorial is put outside, it will be on the play in three days, and it will have to be a little publicity!" Xi Hongdou said, the pictorial was drawn with the help of Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi also came to see it when he rehearsed the play before, the effect of the rehearsal was very good, and the most worrying Zhao Fengqi did not drop the chain, and his head turned over as if he was about to take off, Xi Hongdou clapped his hands and applauded.
Now Bai Ling is the head of the troupe, Zhao Fengqi has also moved to the teahouse since his leg is better, which is convenient for rehearsals, Sister-in-law Liu has a headache, and the shopkeeper of the barbecue shop doesn't care about anything, and she and Xi Hongdou explain the big and small things.
"What do you mean by shopkeeper? If you don't want to do it, just go. Xi Hongdou was a little dissatisfied, the last time there was a disturbance from a diner, the shopkeeper didn't resist, he just wanted to calm things down, and now he was still passive and slacking off, and it was useless to keep it.
Sister-in-law Liu said: "The shopkeeper said that he wanted to leave." ”
When Xi Hongdou heard that she really wanted to leave, she didn't force her to stay, so she went back and talked about it.
"Shopkeeper, but our shop is short of your salary?" Xi Hongdou asked: "What's the difficulty of the shopkeeper?" "What should be said has to be said, at least it can't make people think that she blew people away.
The shopkeeper shook his head: "Don't dare, don't dare, there's something at home, please let the owner go." ”
Xi Hongdou saw that the shopkeeper was determined to leave, so he asked Sister-in-law Liu to lead the person to Lu Zhi's side to settle the bill.
It's just that I didn't expect that the next day, the restaurant opposite also set up a barbecue shelf, Xi Hongdou was a little puzzled, the restaurant opposite usually asked the guy to come to her when she needed to eat barbecue, why did she start this business by herself now?
Later, I inquired and found out that it was the previous shopkeeper who sold the box and her barbecue ingredients to the owner opposite, and became the shopkeeper opposite, which made Xi Hongdou disgusted.
Xi Hongdou called Liang Sheng and Cui Shan over to ask, when did you let the shopkeeper steal the formula?
"We really don't know that the shopkeeper is stealing ......" Liang Sheng's face was embarrassed, he didn't expect such a thing to happen, other families did the same, and their own business would definitely be affected.
Xi Hongdou sighed, Liang Sheng and Cui Shan knew the method, and it wasn't that complicated, and the heat and condiments were not difficult, and they could learn it by watching more on the side.
"Forget it, it's already happened anyway, disgusting is disgusting, but I'm not afraid!" Xi Hongdou said that the restaurant opposite thought that it would be fine with a recipe, but her barbecue shop did not rely on the recipe, but on the ingredients.
The restaurant opposite probably reacted quickly, knowing that it was actually a loss.
Sure enough, within a few days, the restaurant opposite the shopkeeper's representative came to him, and he sold the recipe, but the price of cumin and the price of meat were enough for them to find out how much it costed.
Xi Hongdou is naturally grown by herself, the cost is low, the beef and mutton are also bought in large quantities from Daguli, and the price is naturally more favorable.
"Boss Xi, why don't we sell the meat skewers we ordered?!" The shopkeeper asked with an old red face.
Sister-in-law Liu's face was not good, so she wanted to blow people away directly, but Xi Hongdou said: "It's not that I don't sell it, but now the price of everything is rising, the meat is expensive, and the condiments are also expensive, and it will be a loss to sell it at the original price!" ”
Xi Hongdou doesn't want to sell to the restaurant opposite, the owner of the restaurant opposite is not authentic, don't say it first, the most annoying thing is that the shopkeeper still betrays her, if she sells it to the other side, then her face is like throwing it on the ground, and anyone can step on it.
Sister-in-law Liu saw Xi Hongdou's attitude, and said, "Please go back." ”
The shopkeeper's face was not good, but he was at fault first, so he could only go home in a huff.
Sister-in-law Liu asked, "Do you really want to raise the price?" ”
"No, I just don't want to sell them!" Xi Hongdou said that when she does business by herself, she wants to be happy, and if someone blocks her, she has to let them block her.
A few days later, the shopkeeper also left the restaurant opposite, and was dismissed by the owner. Xi Hongdou snorted coldly when he heard the news: "No one is stupid." "The cost price of her finished product is lower than that of their own products, as long as she is there, no one can monopolize this business!
The new shopkeeper of the restaurant opposite came, saying good things and giving gifts, which was regarded as wiping her ass for the previous things, Xi Hongdou was also sincere when she looked at others, and her face was also recovered, so naturally she had no enmity with money and resumed supply.
Sister-in-law Liu is now the shopkeeper of the barbecue shop, and the big and small affairs are also well organized, and ......
"Boss Zhao came back for lunch today?" Xi Hongdou came to Sister-in-law Liu to gossip, and the teahouse also served a collective meal at noon, but Zhao Fengqi came back to eat.
Sister-in-law Liu said, "He's used to eating." ”
"Habit? That's not right, the time to eat in the barbecue shop is different from the teahouse, and the meal is late, why does Boss Zhao have to come here to eat with a deflated stomach? Xi Hongdou said with a wicked smile.
Sister-in-law Liu sighed: "Boss, what do you want to say?" I'm settling the score, and I'm wrong! ”
Xi Hongdou laughed and said, "I see, Boss Zhao has a crush on you, that's why I want to eat with you!" "There are no other women eating at the dinner table here, except for Sister-in-law Liu, who is Liang Sheng and Cui Shan, isn't this just a flea on a bald man's head, an obvious thing!
