Since the separation, many of Xu Lianhua's former partners have begun to stand still, watching from across the strait, wanting to see how much ability he still has after leaving his family, and even many people have changed their attitudes Xu Lianhua's younger brother contact.
Yirentang's business was negotiated by Xu Lianhua, and achieving such results is undoubtedly a powerful reassuring pill for those hesitant businessmen, proving that Xu Lianhua's vision is vicious, and even without the support of the Xu family, his strength is still extraordinary.
Some large merchants and most of the small and medium-sized merchants have thrown olive branches to Xu Lianhua, and Xu Lianhua can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold.
With previous experience, this time the eyebrow powder Xu Lianhua spent a lot of resources to promote and promote, at the beginning of March, the Xu family sent the sales report for February, in order to keep the rouge from being completely out of stock, Xu Lianhua began to take a limited sales method, reducing the supply of rouge, I didn't expect the strange goods to live, but the heat has not decreased.
The sales of jasmine powder are still stable, and the sales of newly listed eyebrow powder are also amazing, selling nearly 1,000 boxes in a month.
So far, Yirentang has made a name for itself in Wanzhou.
On the eighth day of the second lunar month, it is advisable to travel and relocate, and the Song family held a banquet in the newly completed courtyard to entertain the relatives and friends of the Song family.
Song Yaoyao returned to the village early, this was the first time she saw the family's new house, and as Father Song and Song Rong said, there was only one yard.
Although it is only a courtyard and is not decorated with carved shadow walls, it can still be regarded as a shotgun for a cannon compared to the crumbling adobe house before.
Song Rong is very attentive, the yard is built quite decent and beautiful, the whole house is full of green bricks, the left and right sides of the yard are divided into a piece of land, surrounded by stone bricks, according to Song Yaoyao's analysis, eighty percent is used to grow vegetables, and other places are paved with coarse grinding stone slabs, so that even if it rains, they are not afraid of wet mud staining their shoes.
Song Rong saw that the girl was looking attentively, and asked a little proudly: "My aunt, how do you think of this house?" ”
Song Yaoyao leaned over and touched the solid wood furniture in the hall, and replied very enthusiastically: "It's good, spacious and sturdy, the only one in the whole village." ”
Song Rong's face was even more joyful, and he seemed to invite merit and said: "With vision, Gothic left you a room, and you can come back to live at any time in the future, and you can live as long as you want." ”
Song Yaoyao patted Song Rong's shoulder and said with a smile: "I know that my eldest brother loves me." ”
Near noon, the guests arrived one after another, and Song Rong and Father Song hurriedly went to the courtyard to entertain the guests.
Song's mother and Dongmei were busy in the kitchen, and the eldest aunt Zhang and Dongmei's mother-in-law Liu were also helping inside.
"Hey, my aunt, you put it down, don't do these rough jobs, carefully rough your hands."
Song Yaoyao held a handful of green vegetables, and couldn't laugh or cry: "Auntie, I'll wash the vegetables." ”
Zhang's tiger blushed and disagreed: "You are now a shopkeeper, and the people who come and go on weekdays are rich businessmen, who make yourself rude and make people laugh." ”
Song Yaoyao said speechlessly: "I've been doing it for so many years, it's going to be rough and rough, not bad this time." ”
Zhang took her and pushed her to the side, and said, "Because of this, I have to take good care of it now, and leave this job to the eldest uncle." ”
Song Yaoyao put down the dishes, took advantage of her efforts to choose the dishes, approached Song's mother, and asked, "Mother, what's wrong with the uncle?" ”
Zhang's people are not like this on weekdays, although she is not bad, but she is a little cautious, she loves to be careful, why is she so enthusiastic today.
Mother Song's subordinates didn't stop, her lips moved slightly, and she held back a sentence: "Borrow money." ”
Song Yaoyao suddenly realized, a little funny, the eldest aunt's family has the grace to take them in, and Mother Song naturally won't shirk this, and she doesn't need to be like this.
But looking at this posture, she really can't intervene, so she might as well go out and have a look.
As soon as she arrived in the yard, she saw Taozhi coming with two children, and she hadn't seen the pillar and the girl seemed to be fatter for many days, and Taozhi saw her and hurriedly came over to say hello.
"The girl is back."
Song Yaoyao touched the heads of the two children, grabbed a handful of peanut candy from the table and handed it to them, and replied: "Isn't this moving into a new home, why do you have to come back to see, how are you doing this time?" ”
Momozhi replied: "It's much better, I've been helping Brother Rong some time ago, and I've earned a few bucks." ”
Song Yaoyao said politely: "If there is any difficulty, just say it, don't be polite to the villagers." ”
Momozhi smiled slightly, didn't say anything, only said, "There are so many guests today, I'll go to the kitchen to help." ”
Song Yaoyao hurriedly stopped: "Hey, you are a guest today, how can there be any reason to let guests cook." ”
Song Rong didn't know where to come from, so he interjected and said, "Taozhi is here, if it's okay, go to the kitchen to help my mother." ”
Momozhi answered, told the pillar and the girl not to be naughty, and went to the kitchen.
"Big brother, people are guests!"
Song Rong said with a smile: "Knowing that people are guests, don't let her work and give money in vain." ”
Song Yaoyao paused, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's me who is careless, or the eldest brother is thoughtful." ”
"Hey, what are you talking about, I just don't think it's easy for her to be a widow, so I can help her."
At noon, Song Rong set off two firecrackers at the door, and then shouted: "Open the table." ”
Mother Song took the others and began to serve dishes next to the table.
Six cold dishes, six hot dishes, six meat and six vegetarian dishes, arranged in two circles, decent and beautiful.
Song Rong poured a glass of wine, raised his head, and said to the guests in the courtyard: "Thank you for coming to the banquet today, everyone eats and drinks well, don't be polite, I'll do it first as a respect." ”
The guests also had a toast and said auspicious words, and Song Rong didn't know if he heard it, but he smiled happily.
The countrymen are poor, and they can't see meat a few times throughout the year, and the Song family's banquet this time can be described as full of sincerity and infinite scenery.
Seeing that the main family moved the chopsticks, everyone also raised their throats and started eating directly.
The food in the yard was in full swing, when I heard a knock on the door at the gate.
The Song family looked up and saw that it was Li Wu's mother, the Qian family.
The grievances of the Song and Li families have long been known throughout the village, and the fact that the youngest son of the Song family has become a fool has long been spread.
Song Rong got up and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Qian raised the gift box of the paper bag in his hand, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said with a sneer: "Come to congratulate your family, the whole village has been invited, but what does it mean that my family is missing?" ”
Song Rong didn't want to entangle with her, so he said directly: "My family naturally invites whoever you want to invite to a banquet, and if you don't invite you, you can go back and forth from where you want, and you are not welcome here." ”
Song Yaoyao secretly applauded, her eldest brother can be regarded as a hard time.
As if he hadn't heard it, Qian swaggered into the courtyard and said loudly: "As the old saying goes, don't hit the smiling person with a smile, I'll personally carry the gift to the door, but you will drive people out, it's too much." What's more, we don't have a reason for the guests who have entered the door to rush out, and it is not auspicious for the main family! ”
