Although Du Ming's words were extremely sincere, and it seemed that he had made up his mind, Liu Jiaojiao was not a Zhao brother, and she had no right to decide her own life for others, so she didn't reply, but after returning to the restaurant to see Zhao Di, she relayed Du Ming's attitude to her.

Brother Zhao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his face turned red, and he hurriedly lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't this person crazy?" How can I tell you these things that don't make sense. ”

Liu Jiaojiao deliberately quipped: "Yes, I should have told you this in person, why did you tell it to me, an outsider?" ”

"Jiaojiao! Oops, I won't tell you! Brother Zhao blushed, paused depressedly, and then ran away without looking back.

Liu Shugen walked over curiously and asked, "Jiaojiao, what's wrong with her?" Why is your face as red as a monkey's fart? ”

Liu Jiaojiao, who was delicious and gossipy, was not so polite, showed a perfect smirk, and said, "You really want to know?" ”

Liu Shugen suddenly trembled, hurriedly took two big steps back, and shook his head desperately: "I don't want to know, I'll go to work immediately!" ”

He knew too well what was hidden behind this smile, and if he didn't want to be killed by Liu Jiaojiao next, it was better to leave immediately.

Niu Haoran, who was not far away, looked at the willow tree roots, which ran away as fast as the fire farts and stocks, and sighed silently in his heart.

Knowing that he can't fight, he has to take the initiative to send it to the door to find death every time, can't he live well?

Although Zeng Jian didn't want to leave Liu Jiaojiao very much...... The delicacies that were made, but the prefect's wife missed her son and personally sent someone to pick him up, he couldn't be an unfilial son, so he had to reluctantly return to the provincial capital.

Before leaving, he rolled around and hugged his thighs to play a scoundrel, so he couldn't help it, prepared a few full food boxes for him, and promised that every month he would have people bring him good food, and he was finally willing to leave.

Seeing that he was forcibly pulled into the carriage by the servants of the family, and stretched his neck out to wave goodbye to her, Liu Jiaojiao was not moved or sad at all, but especially wanted to chant a poem by Mao and Grandpa - "Sending the Plague God".

This thing is really too noisy, girl, she's old, she can't resist it, hey.

Within a few days, the court's commendation order came down, because Xie Ping'an had made a lot of meritorious service in suppressing bandits, and because he mentioned in the report that everyone in Qingxinfang had helped to suppress bandits, so Qingxinfang also received a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, and verbally rewarded the boss Liu Jiaojiao.

This news was personally said by Xie Ping'an when the store was closed, and he personally sent the silver reward, which made the guys very excited.

"My good man, I can be rewarded by the imperial court in my lifetime, it is simply a glorious ancestor!"

"Isn't it? I felt like I was in a dream! ”

"Who will look down on me in the future? I've been rewarded by the Imperial Court! ”

……

Niu Haoran and the others were very calm, looking pampered and not surprised, and looked at the others happily discussing there.

Xie Ping'an's eyes flashed slightly when he saw this, and he felt that his little cousin knew how to use people to recognize people, and these people under his hands were all calm, not bad.

As everyone knows, several people are pretending, all because Liu Jiaojiao has taught them countless times, and they must not easily show their joys, sorrows, and sorrows on their faces, and must pretend that everything doesn't matter, so that they will not be easily seen through their minds, and they can also bluff people.

So even though they are so excited now that they want to yell a few times, they are all trying their best to endure it, even the unreliable willow root is desperately enduring it, for fear that if they don't control their expressions, they will be caught by Liu Jiaojiao and cleaned up.

Fortunately, Xie Ping'an didn't know the inside story, otherwise he would probably be crying and laughing.

Liu Jiaojiao stood on the steps, making herself look much taller than everyone else, and then clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention, and only after everyone quieted down did she say loudly: "I will divide the reward of 1,000 taels of silver equally among everyone in the store, and the big guy can go to Haoran to register now, and go home after receiving the silver!" ”

The crowd was boiling at once.

With the addition of Liu Jiaojiao, the boss of the store, there are only a dozen people in total, and if one thousand taels are divided equally, each person will get nearly seventy taels of silver, which is equivalent to the income of an ordinary guy for two years.

This is also the reason why Liu Jiaojiao's salary is high, and she makes a lot of money in the store, so her salary is high. The salary of ordinary guys in January is three taels, the second kitchen of Erhu has six taels, Liu San and Niu Haoran belong to the high-level, ten taels per month, the lotus who manages the lobby and personnel is eight taels per month, and the younger brother is the apprentice of the lotus, five taels per month.

If you change to other restaurants, it is impossible to have such a high salary, of course, people do not earn as much as Qingxinfang, and the boss is not as generous as Liu Jiaojiao.

Xie Ping'an was taken aback by what she said, and then shook his head and smiled, this little cousin of his own is really a wonderful person.

Zhu Zhen, who came with him, lowered his voice and said, "Master, Miss Biao's trick to win people's hearts is really high. ”

Xie Ping'an also replied in a low voice: "What you see is that she is trying to win people's hearts, but what I see is that she is not swayed by money, you look at her look carefully, is there a little reluctance and reluctance?" ”

Zhu Zhen looked up, and saw a smile on the corner of Liu Jiaojiao's mouth, with a gentle expression and a smile in her eyes, which was from the bottom of her heart because she was happy to see the guys happy, and she didn't feel distressed and reluctant to give away a large sum of silver.

He couldn't help but sigh silently, and said in a low voice: "Miss Biao is kind-hearted, and she deserves to be the descendant of the Xie family." ”

Xie Ping'an also smiled, very satisfied with the sentence he said, "descendants of the Xie family", that's right, such an excellent little cousin is of course the descendant of their Xie family, and has nothing to do with Xu Tianci, who killed a thousand knives.

After the guys were excited, no one was willing to register to receive the silver, because they knew that the arrest of that group of White Lotus Sectists was done by Liu Jiaojiao alone, and they didn't help at all, and they were already very ashamed to take the credit, and if they still took such a large amount of silver, they felt uneasy.

Niu Haoran shouted for a long time and no one came to register, so he had no choice but to look at Liu Jiaojiao, this matter had to be used if she spoke.

Liu Jiaojiao was a little moved, but also a little helpless.

She is now a little rich woman, and she really didn't look at it with a thousand taels of silver, and she thought that she would take it all out to reward everyone, so that everyone could make a small fortune and improve the living environment of the family, but she didn't expect everyone to be so simple and refuse to take this money that they didn't think they should get.

Clearing her throat, she said in a loud voice again: "Originally, I was going to talk about this matter in a few days, but since everyone didn't want to receive the money, I could only say it in advance. I'll leave the town after a while, but don't worry, Qingxinfang will still be there, and everyone can still work here, but the master will be replaced by Erhu, and the shopkeeper will also recruit people again. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly exploded.

"Little boss, where are you going?"

"Little owner, are you going to open a store elsewhere?"

"Little owner, will you come back after you leave?"

……

There were too many questions, gossiping, Liu Jiaojiao couldn't answer them one by one, so she had to stretch out her hands and make a quiet hand pressing motion, and then explained: "I don't want to say where to go for the time being, because there are some private matters that need to be resolved, as for whether I will come back, that's for sure, after all, this is my home, my grandfather is here, I grew up here, why don't you come back?" ”

When it comes to private matters, the guys don't ask anymore, and when they hear her say that they will come back, everyone has a bottom in their hearts, after all, Qingxinfang was founded by her, and she is like the backbone of everyone, if you leave and don't come back, everyone will panic.

"So please accept this money, not for anything else, I just hope that you can continue to help after I leave, support and support the two tigers like me, I hope that when I come back, I can still see the same Qingxinfang as now!" Liu Jiaojiao continued.

After hesitating for a moment, they slowly walked in the direction of Niu Haoran one by one, registered their names, and received the money that was worth a lot of money to them.

After everyone received the silver, they would walk up to Liu Jiaojiao, bow to her respectfully, and then said firmly: "Little owner, don't worry, Qingxinfang will definitely not change, we will wait for you to come back." ”

By the time everyone received the silver and bowed, Liu Jiaojiao, who never cried easily, had burst into tears.

"Thank you, thank you all for ......"

Liu Jun came late today because of business, and when he entered the store, the guys had already left, only to see Xie Ping'an desperately comforting Liu Jiaojiao, who was sitting there crying silently, and Niu Haoran and others were standing aside, all with red eyes.

What's the situation? What happened?

Liu Jun, who felt sorry for her sister, immediately walked over in three steps and two steps, unceremoniously squeezed Xie Ping'an away, hugged Liu Jiaojiao with one hand, and gently wiped away her tears with the other hand, and asked softly rather carefully: "Jiaojiao, what's wrong?" ”

Xie Ping'an, who was squeezed aside by him for no reason, wanted to scold him angrily, but when he saw that Liu Jiaojiao, who had been unwilling to speak, finally raised her head, and immediately followed Liu Jun's example, and said in a very gentle voice: "Jiaojiao, don't cry, it won't be beautiful if you cry again." ”

Liu Jun glared at him fiercely when he heard this, his Jiaojiao is extremely beautiful even if he cries, okay? What nonsense?

Xie Ping'an's eyes were full of sad and tearful little cousins, he didn't notice someone's angry gaze at all, took out a brocade from his arms and handed it over, and coaxed lightly: "Come, wipe it, this is new, unused." ”

Anyway, he has been to Qingxinfang so many times, and he knows that his little cousin has a habit of cleanliness, so he added one more sentence, for fear that she will dislike it.

Liu Jiaojiao slowly turned Jinpa, and after confirming that it was brand new and clean, she gently wiped away the tears on her face and muttered: "Cousin, no matter what happens in the future, you must help me keep this Qingxin Fang, please!" ”

"Don't worry, no one will dare to touch here during my tenure, and when I leave office, I will also inform the county commander who took over, and arrange for people to watch, and I will never let anything happen here!"

"Thank you."

"You are my cousin, I am your cousin, and my family does not need to be polite."

Liu Jiaojiao didn't speak again, but just swept around the store lobby with a little nostalgia, and her eyes faintly glistened with tears again.

She had to go, but she had to keep the store anyway, if nothing else, but for the guys who promised to wait for her to return.
