Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 7

The next morning, when Tong Xiangyu went downstairs, she saw Zhang Chen eating breakfast, Bai Zhantang inviting guests at the door, Xiucai counting yesterday's account with an abacus, Dazui busy in the kitchen alone, and the inn In the lobby, there are already a few guests here and there, eating and drinking.

"Meidi is very beautiful, everyone is up so early!" Tong Xiangyu asked happily after seeing so many guests in the morning.

Seeing the shopkeeper about to go down the stairs, Zhang Chen immediately stepped out to the shopkeeper's side, and said flatteringly, "Shopkeeper! Slow down, slow down, I'll help you go, this is the breakfast just made ".

"Hehe, hehe, I won't eat, Xiaochen, you are growing up, you should eat more," Tong Xiangyu said with a smile.

Zhang Chen smiled and didn't speak, and started to eat breakfast again.

At this time, Bai Zhantang finished his work, and the customer in his hand saw this scene and said jokingly: "The shopkeeper! I am also growing up, why don't you let me eat together?"

"Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat. Look at your figure, which is not as slender as when you first came here! You are about to become a greasy uncle and still eat. Hurry up and greet the guests."

Hearing Tong Xiangyu's disgusting words, Bai Zhantang could only smile helplessly, and turned to greet the guests.

At this time, Tong Xiangyu looked around the inn and suddenly found that there was one person missing and asked Zhang Chen who was eating: "Where is Xiao Guo, why didn't anyone see her?"

"I guess he hasn't gotten up yet," Zhang Chen said with a sigh.

When Tong Xiangyu heard this, she couldn't sit still and said angrily: "I haven't woken up yet, so Xiaochen did all these tasks by himself?".

Xiucai interjected, "When I came together, I saw Zhang Chen was cleaning the table and setting up the stools. He was busy and just sat down to have breakfast."

"It's unreasonable. Did I pay her to let her sleep? Lao Bai went to wake her up for me," Tong Xiangyu said angrily.

Bai Zhantang was about to go to the backyard when he was stopped by Zhang Chen and said to Tong Xiangyu: "Shopkeeper, you forgot to say last night that Xiao Guo was in charge of this morning and Lao Baigan and I were punished yesterday!".

"I forgot, I forgot," Tong Xiangyu slapped his forehead and said.Then I remembered that this was not for her to rest, but for her to work less!

Thinking of this, Tong Xiangyu got up, twisted her waist and walked towards the backyard.

Seeing Tong Xiangyu walking, the old white scholar Zhang Chen and the three people in the inn looked at each other, knowing that a good show was about to start, and then walked to the backyard.

When they came to the door of the backyard, they saw Tong Xiangyu open the door of Xiao Guo's room and walk in. The three of them had to lie down by the window to eavesdrop.

Soon Tong Xiangyu's scolding came from the room, and Miss Guo Furong's temper was even more diametrically opposed, and the voices of the two also dropped from getting louder to whispering at the end.

The three of them didn't hear anything interesting in the end, so they could only return to the inn lobby to greet the guests in boredom.

After a quarter of an hour, Tong Xiangyu came out with Xiao Guo, and everyone in the hall suddenly focused their attention on Xiao Guo, Guo Furong could only smile awkwardly and get busy as if nothing had happened.

"Under the education of the shopkeeper, Xiao Guo has fully realized his own mistakes and shortcomings, and will take his work more seriously from now on," Tong Xiangyu said after seeing everyone watching Xiao Guo.

And the people in the inn saw Xiao Guo's reluctance behind Tong Xiangyu, everyone looked at each other and smiled, knowing that the matter was far from over.

"Come on, Xiao Guo, come on, Xiao Guo, come on," the scholar Bai Zhantang and Zhang Chen encouraged Guo Furong one after another.

"Okay! Alright! Go to work if you don't have anything to do." Seeing that everyone in the inn was so perfunctory, Tong Xiangyu could only wave his hands and say.

Bai Zhantang, Zhang Chen and others continued to greet guests in the lobby after laughing loudly.

"Then Xiao Guo, the clothes will belong to you from now on, and Xiao Chen will help you with the hygiene of the inn." Tong Xiangyu said to Guo Furong after seeing everyone in the inn leave.

"Just do it, but if I don't do well, don't blame me."

"By the way, I haven't had breakfast yet, I got up late, and I'm a little hungry now," Guo Furong said, clutching her stomach.

Hearing this, Tong Xiangyu's face immediately changed: "Eat after work, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, you have to finish the work before eating, now, immediately, immediately, go to work for me!".

Guo Furong was taken aback by Tong Xiangyu's face-changing and could only cry and help everyone in the lobby.

Looking at the people in the inn busy greeting the guests, Tong Xiangyu smiled with satisfaction and said, "It's beautiful! It's beautiful!" As she spoke, she walked upstairs to the room.

When it was time for dinner, everyone began to pack the dishes and prepare to eat, and Guo Furong, who had been hungry all day, immediately sat down at the table and prepared to eat.When she was about to pick up food, she was suddenly stopped by a pair of chopsticks. When she looked up, she found that it was Tong Xiangyu who stopped her.

"Have you finished your work? Have you washed your clothes? Let's eat," Tong Xiangyu said to Guo Furong, holding chopsticks.

"No! It's not finished, and the clothes haven't been washed yet. How can you have the strength to work after a day of hunger?" Guo Furong said confidently.

"Then what have you been doing all day?" Tong Xiangyu asked while holding his forehead.

"I've been working all day, but I haven't done much," Xiao Guo said, looking around.

Now it's not just the shopkeeper, everyone in the inn also understands that Xiao Guo has been slacking off all day and not working.

"Then don't eat it, you haven't done much work, so what face is there to eat?" Tong Xiangyu put down his chopsticks and said.

"Aren't you bullying people? Is it frightening to be an aunt?" Guo Furong immediately stood up and said angrily when she heard that he was not allowed to eat.

"Well! How dare you challenge the shopkeeper?" Seeing Guo Furong stand up and yell at Tong Xiangyu, Zhang Chen and Bai Zhantang immediately got up and said.

"You bully people!" Seeing Zhang Chen and Bai Zhantang's posture, Guo Furong ran to the backyard crying.

Everyone was at a loss for a while, and they didn't expect things to change like this.

"Don't worry! Let me go over and have a look, and persuade her." Hearing what Tong Xiangyu said, everyone understood the power of the shopkeeper's mouth, and immediately felt relieved.

The battlefield suddenly changed, and a fierce attack was discovered on the food on the table. After a while, there were only a few empty plates left on the table.

Everyone leaned on their chairs and burped a few times in satisfaction.
