After selling myself, I became the head of the family

Chapter 96 Lantern
  "It's cold today, so all this soup is for free, no money is required."

Knowing that the other party had misunderstood, Su Yueyue hurriedly explained.

"Free?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then picked up the bowl in disbelief and took a careful taste.

Aunt Zhang only added some salt and ginger slices to the broth. It was really comfortable to take a sip on this cold day.

"Is this soup made with meat added?"

The man who tasted the meat was even more surprised.

This meat is used to make soup and it is also given for free?
  "It's made with tube bones. Now that it's cold, drink some soup to warm your stomach."

Su Yueyue explained with a smile, and then the man said awkwardly, "Thank you then."

"nothing."

As more and more people came, people passing by saw how delicious they were eating and entered the shop with the intention of giving it a try.

The business in the shop is getting better and better, and even Zhang Haotian has come out to help.

Feng Shuzhen was making noodles in one go, while Aunt Zhang was busy collecting money and making ingredients. In addition to taking care of the guests, Su Yueyue helped clear away the dishes, tables and chairs.

Zhang Haotian was guarding a large wooden basin in the backyard, washing and scrubbing, and cleaned all the dishes and chopsticks that were brought before sending them out.

The two little girls Su Qing and Su Jing were not idle either. They were either helping Zhang Haotian with the bowls or boiling water in the kitchen. Everyone was busy for a while.

When Aunt Cai and Mrs. Chu pushed Lu Xingzhou over, they saw Su Yueyue rolling up her sleeves to serve someone soup.

The little girl had a smile on her face, she smiled at everyone she met, and her hands and feet were even more agile.

Seeing him from a distance made Grandma Cai happy.

I met such a good girl by myself!

Mrs. Chu also quietly looked at Su Yueyue who was busy.

Only Lu Xingzhou's eyes dimmed when he saw her exposed arms.

This girl doesn't have any bad intentions at all.

"Mommy, Granny Chu, Young Master, you are here!"

After ordering her meal, she turned around and saw Grandma Cai and her group, waving excitedly.

She also thought that grandma and the others were not coming today.

"I just went here and I like acupuncture. I thought I would just come here and have a bowl of noodles. I'm too lazy to go back and cook."

Aunt Cai looked at it with a smile, then picked a table outside and sat down.

"I think it looks good. The location is good and the signboard is big. Anyone who walks by can see it."

Mrs. Chu also nodded and praised.

"Mommy, what kind of noodles do you want to eat? There are ones with roasted pork with bamboo shoots, ones with minced meat, pea noodles and clear soup noodles. They all taste good."

"I want two bamboo shoots to roast meat, Xingzhou, what kind of noodles do you want to eat?"

Aunt Cai nodded, and then looked at Lu Xingzhou opposite.

The boy was still unhappy about what the little girl called him last.

Seeing that all three people's eyes fell on him, he said in a low voice.

"It's the same thing."

"Okay, then I'll go there first."

Su Yueyue mistakenly thought that his eyes fell on her arm.

His face looked a little unnatural for a moment, and he subconsciously reached out to cover the scar.

The scar on her arm is really distorted, and her skin tone is much whiter now, so the light red scar looks more obvious.

Putting down her sleeves, the little girl continued to work.

When the noodles were served, Grandma Cai nodded unconsciously while looking at the steaming noodles.

It’s full of color, fragrance, and looks very good.

Old Mrs. Chu was used to being frugal. Except for the holidays, she would cut off two ounces of meat and take it home to eat. On weekdays, she ate some porridge and cabbage. In addition, because she was old, she didn’t have the strength to roll out the noodles. Now, After finally eating some noodles, she felt a sour taste on the tip of her nose after just one bite.

She never thought that she would be alone when she got old.

"What's wrong with you?" Noticing that the old sister was in a bad mood, Grandma Cai didn't say much and just handed over a handkerchief.

"This noodle is delicious."

Mrs. Chu wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a smile.

"It's delicious. Let's eat here often in the future."

"Okay." The two old ladies lowered their heads to eat noodles, but Lu Xingzhou seemed absent-minded.

He didn't want Su Yueyue to continue helping here.

Although I don't know exactly why, whenever I see her smiling at other people, I feel uncomfortable in my heart.

I'm afraid this girl has forgotten that she is already a member of the Lu family, so why should she be so warm to outsiders?

The boy who was overwhelmed with jealousy could not remember that Su Yueyue was helping her mother and aunt.

I just wanted to go back and talk about her.

After eating the noodles, Granny Cai and Mrs. Chu were about to leave, but they saw Lu Xingzhou still had a cold face, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Xingzhou, let's go."

"it is good."

The young man withdrew his gaze and then followed him out of the shop.

Seeing them leaving, Su Yueyue lowered her head and glanced at the light pink scar on her arm, and then pursed her lips.

She seemed to understand what Doctor Ma meant when he persuaded her.

Since the sun came out, there have been a lot more pedestrians on the street, and the business in the shop has naturally become booming.

After dinner, Aunt Zhang and Feng Shuzhen almost burst out laughing when they looked at a box full of coins.

I counted around and found that a total of three hundred and seventy-two cents were sold today.

Excluding the capital, I made one hundred and seventy-two cents today.

Excluding the seven members of the Xie family, Zhang Ruoan's classmates and Grandma Cai's group earned dozens of yuan less today.

But even so, I still made about a hundred cents today.

"It's really amazing."

Zhang Haotian looked at the copper plate in the box and sighed.

This afternoon when he was washing dishes, his hands were almost white.

But at least it was done.

If you can make money on the first day of opening, it means it’s good.

"It seems that the fortune teller has some skills. Let's go to him to tell the fortune in the future."

Aunt Zhang simply forgot what she said that morning and narrowed her eyes with laughter.

Working in this town only costs six denarii a month.

If the shop can be like today every day from now on, they can earn five taels of silver a month!
  When the time comes, one more point, one person will be two or two more.

Earning twenty taels a month means more than twenty thirty taels a year.

In this case, they would no longer have to worry about not being able to provide for their own studies in the future.

"Thank you for your hard work today."

Feng Shuzhen squeezed Su Yueyue's hand and whispered.

"It's not hard. I just helped with a little help. You and your aunt are really tired today."

Su Yueyue shook her head. To be honest, she only helped a little, and the most busy thing was rolling out the dough and mixing the ingredients.

I just don’t know if A Niang and Aunt Zhang can be busy when they go back to the shop after I go back.

"Don't worry, we ordered a batch of bowls but they never arrived. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow should be soon. As long as there are enough bowls, we can pile them there and wash them after dinner.

And your two sisters can also help with some things, so you can stay at the Lu family with peace of mind. Mr. Lu and Aunt Cai are both good people, and you have to keep your heart in mind for them, you know? "

As Feng Shuzhen spoke, she smoothed the hair from her daughter's ears.

"When grandma has saved enough money, she will redeem you. Then our family will be able to stay together again."

"it is good."

Su Yueyue pursed her lips and responded with a smile.

But if she leaves, what will happen to the grandma and the young master in the future?

Aunt Zhang gave her thirty Wen, and the little girl ran away, fearing that she would follow him.

Seeing her running away, Aunt Zhang wanted to chase her, but was stopped by Zhang Haotian.

"Yueyue came to help because I feel sorry for you. Giving money is not blocking others' wishes."

"It's getting dark today, so she should be slowed down."

The young man held the koi lantern and stood guard at the entrance of Qingshui Alley. The sky was so dark that he couldn't see clearly at all, and he didn't see that familiar figure.
