Chapter 141: The Troublemaker
I probably knew that the old lady should be like that, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. Gu Zhiruo didn't show much surprise, but he was a little embarrassed.
She sneered, then lowered her eyes and frowned, blinking. "Is it already so fast? To be honest, I still want to accompany the old lady more. I hadn't seen her before. β
Hearing this, Zhao Qingyan put his arm around her shoulder, as if to comfort her. She said, "No, I know you've done your best." Haven't you started coming with Xiao Lan recently? It's all a sign that it's starting to get better. It is...... It's that grandma may need you to accompany her more these days. I will also accompany the old lady, so don't worry. β
"That's ...... Why do I feel like crying? Gu Zhiruo said, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, looking like he really wanted to cry. Zhao Qingyan took out his handkerchief and gave it to her, and Gu Zhiruo said thank you. "Qingyan, I'm relieved to have you taking care of the old lady. In the future, I will come to see the old lady with Xiao Lan more, and you can just handle this matter well. We all know you're busy, but if there's anything we can do to help, please let us know. β
Hearing Gu Zhiruo say this, Zhao Qingyan was also very comforted in his heart. After all, there was no one behind me before, so I didn't dare to say anything even if I encountered something. But now it's different, if she knows, she has nothing to worry about first.
But if she talks about it, she really needs Gu Zhiruo's help with something.
"Zhiruo, that's the case, I plan to take good care of my grandmother during this time, so it's a little troublesome over there in the restaurant. Recently, I don't think I can take care of the restaurant during the time my father has been away from home, so you see, can I ask you to ......?"
"Why are you here?" Gu Zhiruo was settling the accounts, and when the abacus crackled, he looked up and saw Xiao Lan walking over slowly with his hands behind his back.
Seeing his relaxed posture, Gu Zhiruo couldn't help but purse his lips and said, "Qingyan is letting us take care of this restaurant, if you come so late every time, you won't be at ease." β
Xiao Lan heard Gu Zhiruo's complaint, walked over with a smile, leaned over to see that she was settling accounts, and praised her. "You have a good account, you have the style of being a housewife."
"Go and go, and there is no shame in saying these things in public." Although he said that, Gu Zhiruo smiled and didn't look too shy at all.
Xiao Lan smiled when she saw Gu Zhiruo, and took out a flower from her back to her, which was a lily in full bloom.
"I just went to the market and saw someone selling this, I don't know if you like it or not, but if you put this in a vase, it will smell for several days!"
In the past, Xiao Lan really didn't care so much about anyone. Even if they linger in the flower building, they give some jewelry that they think they will like, but they have never sent flowers like this. And now, when he saw those words, he felt that Gu Zhiruo would like it very much, and he couldn't help but buy it back.
Gu Zhiruo was a little surprised when he saw the lily. She originally thought that Xiao Lan was just getting up late and coming late, but she didn't expect Xiao Lan to send her something, so she was a little stunned immediately. Then she took the lily and bowed her head shyly. "Thank you."
Xiao Lan smiled and said, "Then I'll go to work in the back first, remember to call me for something." β
As he spoke, Xiao Lan took the back kitchen and prepared to inspect whether there were more or fewer ingredients in the back kitchen.
As early as two days ago, since Zhao Qingyan said this problem, Gu Zhiruo automatically took this matter on himself and Xiao Lan. She didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and she thought that friends should help each other. And after Xiao Lan knew, Gu Zhiruo explained the reason, and Xiao Lan also nodded and agreed.
After all, the old lady watched them from a young age, and now, the old lady is sick, and Zhao Qingyan has taken on the responsibility of the Wen Mansion and the old lady, so they should help Zhao Qingyan, which is equivalent to helping the old lady.
Thinking so, Gu Zhiruo continued to bow his head and settle the account.
And just after finishing the calculations, Gu Zhiruo stretched his waist and was about to rest, when a man who was originally eating stood up and said something loudly. The guy beside him was obviously at a loss, and looked at Gu Zhiruo, and when Gu Zhiruo saw this, he walked over.
"Excuse me, I don't know what's going on?"
Gu Zhiruo said as he looked at the guy and motioned to him not to worry too much.
But the male guest didn't seem to want to stop there. "How do you do this restaurant? Don't you know that there are cockroaches in this meal? I'm afraid you're going to be laughed at! β
Gu Zhiruo frowned and looked at the rice bowl that was a little strange, although there were indeed cockroaches in it. But she also knew that the kitchen in this restaurant was very clean, and there would never be such a thing. They don't even serve food after the chef finds out that there is such a thing.
But the most important thing at the moment is to put this matter down first.
Gu Zhiruo's eyes changed when he looked at the man, and said, "It stands to reason that such a thing will not happen in this restaurant, but since it happened, I will compensate you first." How about we get back on it? β
"A new copy? Will a new one compensate for my loss? Little girl, you are too naΓ―ve! β
"How else? How about we return you double the price of the meal? β
Gu Zhiruo saw that this person didn't seem to want to stop, and his expression couldn't help but be a little cold, and after the man saw it, he said even more exaggeratedly: "Double? Heh, it's just this kind of thing, you can press it down with double the money? I want justice, not money! β
As he spoke, the man said to the guests next to him how unhygienic this shop was, until several customers had already left, Gu Zhiruo couldn't hold back the fire in his heart at this time, and said directly: "We give you money, you don't want to, we will pay you food, you won't eat, and we will drive our guests away, are you here to smash the field?" β
"Why do you little girl talk like that? I'm smashing the field? What's there to smash in your restaurant? β
The man said with a look of excitement, and with the bowl in his hand, he fell directly to the ground, and the table was lifted by him.
Gu Zhiruo didn't pay attention, and his hand was scraped with a large amount of blood by the flying ceramic shards.
After hearing about the incident in the front hall, Xiao Lan quickly rushed over, and saw that Gu Zhiruo's hands were already bloody, and those guys controlled the troublesome man, Xiao Lan hurriedly walked over.
"How? Does it hurt? Xiao Lan gently held Gu Zhiruo's wrist and looked at the place where the bleeding had begun to fall with some distress. Although Gu Zhiruo shook his head, Xiao Lan still looked at the man and said, "You report to me immediately, and I will deal with this matter." β
After finishing speaking, no matter what, he took Gu Zhiruo to the medical center.
Seeing that the doctor put on layers of gauze, Xiao Lan felt even more distressed.
Xiao Lan didn't dare to touch Gu Zhiruo's hand, just gently pinched both sides, looked at it, then looked up at her and said, "I'll send you back first." β
Gu Zhiruo nodded flatly, although it hurt, but she didn't want to say it.
