The store that Zhao Youzhen fancied was originally selling hardware, and the boss thought that there were three hardware stores in the town, and their business was not very good, and there was an outside way, so he wanted to sell the house and prepare the capital to go outside for development.

Therefore, after completing all the formalities, you can move in with a little tidying up.

And Zhao Erbo and the others really couldn't find a suitable store in the town, so they could only open a store in Zhao Youzhen's store to do business.

Although Wu Julan didn't say anything, she was still worried that the opening of a noodle restaurant would affect her business.

Later, she found out that her dumplings did sell less, but her income was a little more than usual.

After thinking about it again, I understand that the second sister-in-law sells a lot of noodles, which means that there are more kinds of braised meat to be used, and the income of the family will be more.

Seriously, the dumpling business is not good, and they are really not particularly distressed.

The main reason is that rolling dumpling wrappers is really troublesome, and she feels sorry for her man who has to get up at three o'clock to knead the dough.

Of course, now that the weather is cold, you can knead the dough before going to bed at night, and you can get up later in the morning.

Now knowing that they opened a noodle restaurant and would not affect their business, Wu Julan was much more at ease.

Zhao Laosi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his wife's belly is now bigger, and it is a good thing to sell less dumplings at home, not only can she get up later in the morning, but she can also rest more.

The time of stability is fleeting, and in a blink of an eye, it is the twenty-second day of the lunar month.

After various exams, the school is finally closed.

However, the teachers of each subject are particularly responsible, and they also take turns to leave a lot of homework for the students.

Finally, the class teacher assigned homework and asked the students to get the report cards the day after tomorrow, and then said that school was over.

Xu Xinning came up: "My brother called last night and said that he was coming to accompany my grandparents for the New Year, do you have anything to buy?" I can ask him to bring it to us. ”

Xiao Hong thought that the debtor was coming, and her mood was depressed again because she could sleep lazily.

Xiao Fang refused with a smile: "There's nothing you want." ”

Xiao Hong sighed: "That's it, I don't know what the provincial city has, how can he bring it?" ”

"It's my inconsiderate thinking." Xu Xinning also scratched his head, and his bright eyes fell on Xiao Fang: "Why don't we go to the city tomorrow?" ”

Xiao Fang was a little embarrassed by him, so he simply looked at Xiao Hong and asked, "Do you want to go?" ”

"Okay!" There are too few fresh fruits in the town, Xiao Hong is really greedy, and when she saw that Xu Xinning heard that she was going, the smile on her face disappeared, and her mood improved: "How to go Ming'er?" ”

If you go by car, you have to go to the station and ask the time, so as not to be in time.

If he can drive, then he is free and can sleep for himself.

"I'll drive." During the New Year's holidays, there are a lot of people on the bus, and it is not easy to grab a seat, so he is reluctant to let Xiao Fang squeeze it.

Xiao Hong was very happy when she heard this: "Then after nine o'clock tomorrow, we will go to the city for lunch, and I will treat you." ”

When they got home, it was just around the time for lunch.

Since there was an extra eight-yuan set lunch at noon, there are now more people who have booked lunch, and their family also eats the reserved lunch, which satisfies Xiao Hong's appetite.

They put down their schoolbags and asked Wu Julan to sit outside and rest, and they helped serve the dishes.

Nine lunches were booked today, and when the guests arrived, the sisters delivered the meals.

The meat dish is the braised pig's head meat that they originally sold, the vegetarian dish is stewed with radish and big bones, and the shredded meat is fried celery.

Xiao Hong felt that she was really inflated, and now she didn't want to eat it so much when she saw the braised pig's head meat.

Fortunately, they also sat at a small square table, and the dishes were all served on plates, so she ate a bowl of rice with radish soup and asked them, "Is there any hairtail and prawn sold in the vegetable market?" ”

"There's still salted hairtail fish at home." Zhao Laosi said happily: "I'll do it for you at night." ”

Xiao Hong hurriedly shook her head: "No, I want to eat fresh hairtail." ”

Wu Julan looked at her helplessly: "How can we have fresh hairtail fish here?" ”

"It's okay, there must be one in the city." Xiao Hong suddenly thought of a good idea, and was ready to make a fortune during the New Year: "Let's go to the city tomorrow, do you have anything to bring?" ”

"No, there is everything at home." Wu Julan hurriedly told her: "Don't spend money indiscriminately." ”

In their opinion, now they are living a good life that they never dreamed of before.

"I earn money just to spend it!" Xiao Hong saw her mother's disapproving face, so she smiled and changed the topic: "By the way, Xu Xinning said that his cousin is coming here for the New Year, can our family pay him back?" ”

Last month, she also went to the police station to get her ID card, and then went to the bank to deposit money and get a passbook.

The income of the braised chicken at home is recorded every day, and Xiao Hong takes his income every Sunday and deposits it in the bank.

She's been going to school for the past few months, and she hasn't spent much money.

Now there are 2,000 yuan in the passbook.

She estimated that the family's money should be five or six thousand, which is enough to repay the debt.

Sure enough, Zhao Laosi responded: "Yes, I can pay it back." ”

They have long wanted to repay the money, and this debt is always in mind.

Of course, when they borrowed money before, they didn't expect to be able to exchange money so quickly.

Wu Julan also looked at them and asked, "When we repay the money, should we calculate the interest for them, or buy them something?" ”

Zhao Laosi also agreed: "People have helped us a lot, and we should also thank them, even your mother and I don't have much knowledge, I don't know what to buy, just when you want to go to the city, just look at the right ones to help buy, right?" ”

After speaking, he deliberately went back to the room and took a stack of money: "I think they won't ask for interest, here is 500 yuan, you can take the red, don't be reluctant to spend it." ”

Xiao Hong agreed.

She wanted to say that in the past, they were reluctant to spend money, right?

Now I still don't want to be reluctant, it's really too much to think about it.

However, they were reluctant to be self-conscious, and they were quite generous when they encountered things, and they were willing to take out 500 yuan.

Xiao Hong thought for a while: "It's the New Year, so let's buy them clothes, right?" ”

Wu Julan has no opinion: "That's okay, you buy some better materials." ”

The brothers lent them pocket money, which shows that they are not short of money, and if they buy cheap clothes, she is worried that people will not look at them.

Zhao Laosi said happily: "You also buy a new dress, and I'll give you money later." ”

Yanyan, who was gnawing on the bones on the side, had been silent all the time, but couldn't help cheering when she heard this: "I want new clothes too." ”

Wu Julan was used to being thrifty, and subconsciously said, "Why do you need to buy it?" How many clothes and shoes have you bought this year? Your sisters' clothes are just right for you to wear. ”

Mainly today's children, the small ones are picking up big clothes to wear.
