At this time, although Gu's father and Gu's mother had already laid down, they were not asleep.

Gu's mother opened her eyes and stared at the somewhat dirty ceiling.

After getting used to the darkness, she could see quite clearly.

In the quiet, Gu's mother slowly spoke, "I insisted on moving to the town, in addition to wanting to give the children a good environment, I didn't want to listen to the gossip of those people in the village, and I also wanted to find a good home for Mu Mu. ”

Father Gu slowly turned his head to look at Mother Gu.

Gu's mother didn't look at him and said, "Although Mu Mu has always insisted, if he can't see Shang Qing's body, he can't prove that Shang Qing is dead." Mu Mu is a good boy and has to guard for Shang Qing. But she's still young, so we can't delay her. ”

"You can't let her be young, so she has to stay for Shang Qing for the rest of her life, right?" Gu's mother sighed, "It's just that our village, as well as a few nearby villages, I really don't like it." ”

"Although the town may not be so good, at least there are more choices than in the village." Gu Mu said.

Gu's father said "um", "Let's look at it first, I always feel that with Mu Mu's ability to do business, our family won't be able to stay in the town for long, and then we will go to bigger and richer places." Our town is still a little smaller. ”

"I think it's hard to have someone worthy of Mu Mu." Gu's father said, "If not, let's not rush to find her a life in order to get married to Mu Mu, and wronged her." If that's the case, it's better to let her be in our house, and we will be so hurt as a girl. ”

"It's really good to meet someone who can be worthy of Mu Mu, and then I will give it to Mu Mu."

"That's what I thought too." Gu's mother said, "Yong'an Town is a little small for Mu Mu after all. ”

"But let's slowly prepare the dowry for Mu Mu first." Gu's mother said, "Mu Mu's maiden family can't count on it, so in the future, let Mu Mu marry out of our family as a daughter, and our family will prepare a dowry for her." ”

"That's right." Father Gu thought for a while and sighed, "I'm really reluctant." ”

"I'm just discussing with you now, I really want to wait for Mu Mu to get married, I'm afraid it will take some time." Gu's mother smiled and said, "I also think that it is difficult for someone in the town to be worthy of Mu Mu." ”

In each room, they were quietly discussing their own affairs, but Li Mumu slept the most soundly.

The next day, the Gu family couldn't take care of the work in the fields, so they set off for the town together.

First went to settle the house and signed a deed with the owner.

Then he went to see the shop that Gu Shangyong and Gu Shangwei talked about.

The shop was directly across the street from their stall.

Li Mumu and the others put everything on the stall first, and let Li Youkang look at it.

They went to look at the shop opposite.

The shop wasn't huge, but it was much bigger than their current one.

There are two rooms, except for the big one that is open to business outside, and there is a small one inside, which can be used as a kitchen.

Li Mumu made a rough calculation, and the room outside should be able to fit eight tables, plus a counter.

The counter is ready-made,

Li Mumu said with a smile: "When the time comes, this counter will belong to the second sister-in-law." ”

Zhang Caiping touched the counter happily, "I actually have my own place." ”

"The kitchen belongs to me and my sister-in-law." Li Mumu said.

Gu Shangyong volunteered: "I'll do the rough work, brush the pot and wash the dishes, I can too." ”

Gu Shangwei said: "Big brother, or leave this job to me." You have a good temper and run the hall with Youkang. I'm so angry, I'm afraid I'll quarrel with a guest if I'm not careful. ”

"Hahaha, too." Gu Shangyong doesn't care about what he does, just do what he is good at.

"At that time, we can support our original stall at the door and continue to sell marinated platters. Some customers who just want to buy a marinated platter and don't want to eat in the store can buy it here, and they don't need to go to the store to wait for it, so troublesome. Li Mumu said.

Gu's mother hurriedly said, "Leave the work of supporting the stall outside to me." ”

"No, no, it's hot outside in summer, cold in winter, and it's windy and sunny, mother, don't do it." Gu Shangwei hurriedly said, "Why don't I come." ”

"Didn't you say you had a bad temper and were afraid of quarreling with guests?" Gu Mu said.

Li Youkang scratched his head and said, "Auntie, second brother, I'll come." I'm young, and I'm not much in the sun. ”

"Moreover, I usually follow my sister and sister-in-law to support the stall, and I am familiar with this work." Li Youkang asked Li Mumu, "Sister, the stall we branch outside is still sold in a certain amount as before, and the stall will be closed after it is sold?" ”

"That's right." Li Mumu nodded, "In the future, we won't sell brine in our store, so you can buy what you want to eat here." As before, sell in quantities, and sell the same amount per day. The stall will be closed after the sale. ”

"Then I'll go into the store to help when I'm done selling out." Li Youkang said, "Anyway, selling marinated platters is still according to the original time, and the meal is just staggered." I'm done selling out, and I won't delay anything else. ”

Li Mumu smiled and said, "Cheng." ”

"With a person like Kang doing the work of two people, we have to give him a raise." Zhang Caiping said, "150 wen a month is not enough. ”

Zhang Caiping already had a shopkeeper style at this time, and she had already skillfully made calculations at the counter, "Youkang, I'll give you 500 wen a month now, and if the business is good in the future, let's go up again, okay?" ”

Li Youkang didn't expect that in a short period of time, his salary would rise again.

Li Youkang couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Mumu.

Zhang Caiping said: "You don't have to look at your sister. Moreover, the salary in the future will not come from your sister, but from our store. ”

"Okay." Li Mumu nodded.

"Ouch, you've all assigned yourself work, so what are we going to do? You can't be idle, can you? "Father Gu is not a person who can watch his children busy and do nothing himself.

"Dad, mother, we still have children." Wang Cuizhen reminded, "When I opened a restaurant, I definitely can't come out and set up a stall for a while and close the stall as before." At least you have to do both lunch and dinner. If we were more diligent, we would have even done morning food. ”

"Sister-in-law, I'm thinking, forget about the morning food, there is still a morning food stall opposite us." Li Mumu said.

As for lunch and dinner, the dishes served are different from those on the stalls, so there is no need to steal other people's business.

Wang Cuizhen thought about it and said: "It's okay, the owner of the food stall is a kind person, and he has always been good with us, and it is really not good for us to collide with her." ”

"But that's it, we have to work in the store all day, and the three children are at home, and we can't be without one." Wang Cuizhen said, "I have to rely on my father and mother to help watch the child." ”

"Then you don't have to watch both of us all day." Gu's mother said, "I think so, I'll leave the matter of purchasing to your father." Tell us what you need, and we'll take care of it. ”
