Chapter 148: New Sorrow
Facing the sluggish Xie Lingfeng, Cheng Chuyang was still able to analyze with him as Cheng Xiangjin's brother. Anyway, Xie Lingfeng is a man with rough skin and thick meat, even if he suffers for a while, it doesn't matter. But facing the tearful sister under his eyes, Cheng Chuyang relented. On the way over, I specially prepared a big stomach, and even thought about it. But when he really saw Cheng Xiangjin crying, his heart as a brother softened.
That's it, with my sister's transparency, this pros and cons can still be distinguished!
Cheng Chuyang can only comfort himself so much.
It was getting late, he didn't stay in the Yulan Courtyard for long, and the old lady might still be waiting for the news after he finished delivering the letter.
He told a few girls on the side, and walked out of the Magnolia Courtyard with slightly heavy steps.
As Cheng Chuyang thought, Cheng Xiangjin knew the current situation better than anyone else, so she only allowed herself to be low for a day or two, and then cheered up and walked out of the house to Zuixianglou to take care of the accounts.
At first, I just went with the idea of changing my mood. As a result, I found that I had accumulated a lot of accounts in a short period of time. Looking at the stack of tall accounts, Cheng Xiangjin couldn't help but feel a little worried.
She wasn't ready to deal with it so quickly!
But the hot business of the restaurant can't allow her to be idle here, especially the surprised eyes of Shopkeeper Yang when he saw her coming, as if he had seen a savior.
She looked at this old man with gray hair and older than her father, who was busy with the restaurant, as a young owner, how could she be embarrassed to be sad here?
rolled up his sleeves, moved the abacus, and crackled and got busy with the accounts.
The previous accounts have always been taken care of by the shopkeeper Yang himself, and the business in previous years was unusual, and the shopkeeper Yang handled it quite handily.
Nowadays, since the arrival of the new chef, Zuixiang House can always introduce new dishes, the price is fair, the taste is good, and it is almost overcrowded every day. In this way, the purchase volume and daily income have increased several times compared with before, and in the face of such a large amount of calculations every day, Yang Shopkeeper inevitably has some mental shortage.
At the suggestion of the shopkeeper Yang, she took over the accounts of the restaurant, which can be regarded as a way for herself to supervise the restaurant as a young owner.
This busyness has gone from white to night. When the restaurant closed in the evening, I found that it felt good to have something to do. At least at this moment, her heart is full, and some sad thoughts in her heart seem to be less important in the face of a huge workload!
Cheng Xiangjin went out early and returned late, and after being busy for a long time, the old lady saw that her eyes had regained their former brilliance, and the deep self-blame in her heart couldn't help but be alleviated.
In the matter with the Xie family, Mrs. Cheng has always blamed herself deeply. After that incident, the person also became thinner and thinner. Fortunately, her granddaughter is a Zhijin Tuan, and her heart is finally relieved.
As soon as the days passed, the haze brought by Cheng Xiangjin's matter to the house gradually dissipated, and without waiting for a breather, new sorrows were put on the agenda again.
A few months ago, I received a letter from the second family returning to the city, and now, months later, they still haven't seen their caravan return. In addition, she couldn't wait for the letter, and she was worried every day, and the old lady, who had lost a lot of weight, was even thinner.
Although Cheng Changan is also worried, there are many things in the yamen, although there are people who are busy and can help to investigate the affairs outside the city, but the effective information is limited after all, and he can only do it in a hurry!
Cheng Chuyang's new official has not been in office for a long time, and it is not good to always ask for leave because of family matters. It doesn't help much in this matter.
For a while, only Cheng Siyi and Cheng Xiangjin, two brothers and sisters in the whole house, had time to inquire about this matter.
