Chapter 229: You Can't Go Home Without Me
When Jiang Lanqing heard Yang Shumiao's story the next day, he understood who Li Chengcai's daughter-in-law was talking about, presumably what Li Chengcai's daughter-in-law wanted to say was that she was a lonely ghost, but it happened that the time was up, so she didn't say it.
This may be the will of God, once Li Chengcai's daughter-in-law says it, then she will definitely be sunk or burned to death.
There are not many ropes to get back, a few women have not finished it before noon, Jiang Lanqing went to the town to sell the ropes after lunch, today Xiaoshi and Jiang Jingshuo are on holiday, Lu Yunfeng wants to supervise the water diversion, Zhao Xingyue chops wood to prepare for the winter, and collects some mugwort leaves by the way.
Yang Shumiao and Luo Sanhui didn't go to the town together, Jiang Lanqing went by herself, and when she passed by the village, she attracted a lot of unkind eyes, which made her speechless.
Didn't she originally want the women of the village to work together to earn money? It's just that after thinking about it a lot, she is still afraid that Baigu does not have a big market, what if the network is unsalable?
They are just ordinary people, it's okay to make money, if they can't make money, is she to blame?
At most, we can think of other ways to make life better for the whole village.
Jiang Lanqing arrived in the town, first went to sell the luozi, and then, as usual, went to the tavern to greet Hou Canghai first, but was told that Hou Canghai had left, leaving her some things and a letter.
In the letter, Hou Canghai said that he received a letter from his nephew a few days ago, asking him to go there to retire, his nephew's place is too far, and the Good Luck Tavern is a little bit of his painstaking operation, he doesn't want to sell it, and he can't take it away, so he can only leave it to her, let her run it well, and don't change the name of the tavern.
Xiao Er and the people in the back kitchen are all trustworthy people, I hope Jiang Lanqing will not replace them and treat them well.
After reading the letter, Jiang Lanqing couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, Uncle Hou left too hastily, right? Why don't you wait for her to come, besides, don't you know where her home is? Why don't you have someone send her a letter?
She had a lot of questions, and she really couldn't understand what Uncle Hou thought, hey!
Since she can't figure it out, she doesn't want to, what she has to do now is to promise Uncle Hou to run the tavern, if she wants to run a tavern, not counting the land protection and the ruffians, she must have enough strength to defeat the competitors, in this town, there is more than one tavern.
Uncle Hou has found a shopkeeper for her, the shopkeeper's surname is Chen, his name is Yongping, Jiang Lanqing calls him the shopkeeper Chen, and his eyes look like a very shrewd person, Jiang Lanqing doesn't like this person very much, but he is the person Hou Canghai found, and he can't be far from it.
Jiang Lanqing didn't expect that when she came to the town once, she would gain such a big family business, and she could be regarded as a rich woman.
It was only Hou Canghai who left, Xiao Er and the back kitchen were a lot, the tavern was open as usual, and seeing that there was nothing to do, Jiang Lanqing went to the pickle shop to read the account book.
As soon as she walked on her front foot, Xiao Er walked out of the tavern with a food box and ran towards a private house.
Xiao Er ran to the door of the house, looked left and right, saw that no one was following, knocked on the door, and after a while, the door opened, Xiao Er entered, and the door was immediately closed.
"She's already taken it?"
The person who spoke was the one who left a letter for Jiang Lanqing, saying that Hou Canghai, who had left, at this moment, he was sitting on a chair and looking at Xiao Er, who was sweating profusely.
"Yes." Xiao Er replied.
"As long as it doesn't affect our own interests, we will do what she tells us."
