Chapter 14: The Nephew Is Bullied

"Come, guest officer, please inside, Jinyulou reopens today, and all our dishes have reduced prices."

Zhang Zezhen led everyone to shout at the door to solicit guests.

The crowd passing by was very curious, some were new customers, some were old customers, and when they heard about the price cut, they wanted to try it.

"Girl, I often come here to eat, why haven't I seen you?" An elderly man asked Zhang Zezhen.

"Guest officer, I'm the new second shopkeeper, you must try my craftsmanship today."

"Then I'll see! Hahaha. ”

"Look at it, please inside, Sansheng, entertain guests!"

"It's coming!" The three victors inside have been busy and have not been idle.

Opened today, Master Gu and the housekeeper brought some attendants to help, seeing this endless stream of people, Gu Changqing was very satisfied, Jinyulou has not had such a lively scene for a long time.

"You greet the guests first, I'm going to go in and get ready to cook." Zhang Zezhen said to his subordinates.

"Got it, second shopkeeper."

Walking into the kitchen, Zhang Zezhen first brought the pre-prepared fruits to the guests' tables.

"This is a giveaway for the opening of our store, you can try it."

"Okay, thank you, thank you, your service is very considerate." An old gentleman said with satisfaction.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, it depends on whether Zhang Zezhen's dishes can meet the needs of the guests.

From the moment Zhang Zezhen started to boil oil, there was no idle moment.

Although it was hard work, she was very happy, and if she could get the recognition of the outside guests, her efforts would not be in vain.

"Isn't this Boss Chen? Thank you for coming today! Gu Changqing saw an acquaintance and stepped forward to greet him.

"Congratulations to Boss Gu, let Jinyulou make a comeback."

"Where is it, how is Boss Chen eating? Is the dish unappetizing? ”

"Boss Gu, don't say it, the new chef's skill is really amazing, it can be said that it is the best sweet and sour carp I have ever eaten in town. Truth be told, don't be angry. ”

"Brother Chen, please speak."

"It's much stronger than the chef you used to make, it's incomparable."

"Hahaha, if Brother Chen likes it, then Gu won't bother."

"Okay."

"Little Er'er, Little Er'er!" A guest shouted.

"Here, guest officer, what do you need?" Mitsukatsu heard the shouts and hurriedly ran over to entertain them.

"Your fruit tastes really good, give me a lotus."

"Okay."

There are about 100 guests coming and going in Jinyulou today, and Zhang Zezhen has never stopped after being busy in the kitchen, and his mind is full of recipes.

She was even a little grateful that she could have such a powerful body, if it was like the slender body before rebirth, I am afraid that she would have collapsed to the ground.

Gu Changqing was not idle, entertaining his old friend in the private room on the second floor, and after entertaining this table, the other table began to shout again.

At dusk, the customers in the store gradually left, and several people came to the counter to take stock of today's income.

Therefore, this matter is naturally handled by Steward Gu. He counted repeatedly, and said happily: "Master, the second shopkeeper, we earned a total of 200 taels of silver today." ”

"So much, Gu Changqing is overjoyed." You must know that the most glorious moment of Jinyulou was only 100 taels of silver.

"This is thanks to the second shopkeeper, Miss Zhang, you are really a noble person of our Gu Mansion, and Jinyulou will be handed over to you in the future, hahaha."

"Don't worry, Master Gu."

Zhang Zezhen was also shocked when she heard that she had made so much money today, and she was thinking in her heart that if 200 taels of silver were put in modern times, it would cost tens of thousands.

If it continues to develop at this pace, then she doesn't have to worry about Da Lang's tuition at all, and maybe soon, she will be able to send San Lang and Erlang to school.

"Okay, it's not early, everyone rest early, and we will continue to work hard tomorrow." After Gu Changqing finished speaking, he said to Zhang Zezhen: "Miss Zhang, I will let my carriage send you back, it's so late, it's not safe for you to go back alone as a girl, besides, you are the God of Wealth of Jinyulou." ”

"It's over, Master Gu." Zhang Zezhen was happy, and suddenly thought of something, "Oh, I forgot, Da Lang is still waiting for me in the students." ”

"Oh no, it's so late, don't you know he's still in the academy?"

Steward Gu took some leftover fruits from the kitchen and packed them for Zhang Zezhen, "Give it to the children on the road, it's hard today, the second shopkeeper." ”

……

It was already dark, Da Lang sat at the gate of the academy, waiting alone for his aunt to pick him up, the teacher and other classmates had left, and he was the only one left, and now he was hungry and sleepy.

"Da Lang, Da Lang, I'm here." Zhang Zezhen poked her head out of the carriage and felt sorry when she saw her poor nephew sitting on the steps.

"Auntie, you're finally here, your classmates are gone, and I'm left alone." After Da Lang got in the car, he began to complain to his aunt.

"I'm really sorry, my aunt was too busy today to ignore you. You must be hungry, this is the fruit for you, eat it. ”

When Da Lang saw that there was something to eat, the grievances in his heart were immediately dispelled, and he picked up the fruit and devoured it.

"Eat slowly, and no one is robbing you, didn't I bring you lunch today? Didn't eat at noon? Zhang Zezhen couldn't help but wonder when she saw her nephew's eating appearance.

Da Lang didn't respond, just buried his head in eating the fruit.

"By the way, I'm probably going to be busy lately. After class, if you don't want to wait at the gate of the academy, go to Jinyu Building to find me, and then we will go home together." ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Zezhen didn't pay much attention to her nephew's low mood, this was Da Lang's first time going to school, and it was normal for her emotions to have ups and downs, and after a long time, she got used to it. Now she is still immersed in today's harvest.

"Mother, we're back!"

Zhang Yangshi saw that his daughter was back, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"Baby girl, why did you come back so late? Is it too hard to work in a restaurant? Isn't it tiring? ”

Zhang Yangshi asked a series of questions in a row, but he didn't give Zhang Zezhen a gap to answer, and he didn't ask too much about his nephew on the side.

"Mother, the restaurant is very busy today, we earned 200 taels of silver today, and Boss Gu also gave me some extra money, saying that it was a reward for me."

After that, Zhang Zezhen took out some of the money and stuffed it into Zhang Yang's hand, "Mother, when my daughter is rich, our family's life will get better and better." ”

"Oh, it has to be my chastity."

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Da Lang silently returned to his room.

Seeing that his sister made so much money again, Li, who was an older brother, was a little jealous.

……

On the third watch, a voice came from Zhang Zefeng's house.

"Humph! What is she capable of? Isn't it just that you can cook a meal and help your family pay off their debts? From childhood to adulthood, all the delicious food and drink at home were given to her, and these are all things that she Zhang Zezhen should do. Li complained to Zhang Zefeng.

"Say less! If it accidentally reaches our mother's ears, it will be indispensable to scold. Zhang Zefeng dissuaded his wife.

"Let me say a few words, I have been married to your family for so many years, and I am busy with the Zhang family, and I am worried about being tired, when did your mother give me a good face? Why did she Zhang Zezhen earn a few broken money, so she could show off her power and be appreciated by the whole family! ”

"Since the old sister has earned money, when has I not bought you the clothes and rouge you like, isn't it all the credit of the little sister that our family can have today's life?"

"It's all her credit? Zhang Zefeng, I married you in my life, I really poured eight lifetimes of mold, oops, my life is so bitter. ”

Zhang Zefeng saw that the Li family was crying out for heaven and earth, and immediately stopped the Li family: "You shut up Lao Tzu!" Do you want my mother to knock us both out of the house? ”

When Li heard her husband say this, she immediately lowered her voice. She was also afraid of repeating the mistakes of her eldest brother and sister-in-law, and finally fell to the point that she didn't even have anything to eat.

During this time, Zhang Zezhen spent most of her time on the business of Jinyulou, and she had no time to take care of her family and Dalang's study situation.

But in the past few days, she also discovered a strange phenomenon, every day after class, Da Lang would go to Jinyulou to eat a lot of things, as if the meal at noon did not enter his stomach at all.

I thought it was because Da Lang was studying very hard, and when the boy was growing up, he had a large amount of food, so she didn't ask much.

But today she stumbled upon something else.

"Da Lang, what's wrong with your face? How can there be a piece of green? ”

Da Lang said hesitantly: "Auntie, it's okay, when I was playing with my classmates yesterday, I accidentally fell to the ground and bumped into it." ”

Zhang Zezhen carefully observed the location of Da Lang's injury, and immediately exposed the lie, he couldn't have several injuries from his fall, and he was obviously beaten.

"At a young age, I learned to lie!" Zhang Zezhen immediately became serious.

"No, no, I didn't lie, I just fell."

"Come here! Stand still! I ask you, did you get into a fight with your classmates? ”

Da Lang nodded.

"Didn't I tell you to get along with your classmates and not fight? How are you disobedient. ”

Zhang Zezhen was very angry when she saw her nephew who was not angry.

"They did it first! They robbed me of my lunch, woo-woo-woo......"

Before he finished speaking, Da Lang began to cry dollly.

Zhang Zezhen realized that her nephew was bullied at school, no wonder she wanted to starve to death every day.

"Then why don't you go to the teacher?"

"The teacher said that good things should be shared with everyone, and said that I was calculating, not like a man."

Da Lang was very aggrieved, and the more Zhang Zezhen listened, the more angry he became.

"Who took the lead in stealing your food?"

"Gu Yu!"

"Gu Yu?" When Zhang Zezhen heard this name, she was about to have a heart attack, this bastard thing actually bullied her nephew, she really has a mother, but she has no mother.

"It's been so many days in school, why don't you say it?"

"I see that you have been busy these days, and I dare not tell you. And Gu Yu said, you are now the shopkeeper of Jinyulou, if you provoke him, he will tell his father and ask his father to drive you away. ”

The more Da Lang talked, the louder he cried.

This made Zhang Zezhen very distressed, but he didn't expect that he had been busy for more than half a month, and he even let people catch the handle.

"What about the teacher? They bully you, doesn't Mr. Du care? ”

"Mr. said, Gu Yu is a good boy, and it is absolutely impossible to bully people."

The more Zhang Zezhen listened, the more angry she became, and thought: This Du Hansheng, on the surface, is so powerful, he is really a teacher in vain.
