In just a few days, Boss Chai has made a lot of profits. In order to make Zisu show more energy, he specially found Zisu and told her that the dividends between them will be settled once a month.

Zisu also reciprocated, and came up with another idea, which is to pickle some side dishes and make some snacks. When the guests are waiting for the dishes, they serve them as appetizers to whet their appetites.The amount does not need to be too large, and there will be no chopsticks for one and a half people.Not only won the gimmick, but also lost the reputation.

Boss Chai clapped his hands and applauded, "What kind of side dish is it?"

Zi Su took out the prepared list, "It's hot now, let's use these four dishes for the time being, spicy cabbage, cold celery, preserved egg tofu, and garlic cucumber." Change dishes."

These four dishes are not worth much in terms of value, but because they are given away for free, they are different.In other words, there are very few people in this world who will eat for nothing!Boss Chai praised it repeatedly, and made the arrangement without mentioning it.

A few days later, Zisu was thinking about leaving home for a while, and taking advantage of the steady source of customers and no need to introduce new dishes during this period, should she go back to Tao's Village to see Aunt Tao and her third brother and fourth sister.Unexpectedly, an unexpected visitor ushered in the store.

"By name and surname, I want to see you." The proprietress called Zisu out from the back kitchen, and said to her, "That's seventeen or eighteen years old, but she's dressed as a woman, wearing gold and silver , but upon closer inspection, she doesn't look like a decent lady."

Zisu was startled, she didn't seem to have such a person in her memory!

"You go up and deal with it first, and if it's not right, back out." The proprietress sent Zisu to the door of the private room on the second floor, bit Zisu and said: "We open the door to do business, and it's inevitable that we will feel a little idle, but You can't just let people bully you. If she is too unreasonable, don't save face for her, we are still familiar with Mr. Lin and Lu Qianhu."

Zisu nodded, although she didn't understand why the proprietress felt that this guest was not kind to her, but from the bottom of her heart, she was grateful for the care of the proprietress, so she said: "God, go ahead, I will take care of it."

The proprietress nodded, then turned around and went down to greet the guests.

Zisu took a deep breath, raised her hand and knocked on the concealed door.

"Come in."

A slightly old voice sounded from the door, Zisu raised her eyebrows, pushed the door open and walked in.

In the house, a woman in her forties was wearing a half-new official green Lu silk trousers. Seeing her come in, she turned to a slim woman in a crimson jacket standing in front of the window, and said, "Grandma, People are coming."

The woman standing by the window turned around slowly after hearing the words, and looked at Zisu sharply.

Zisu secretly raised the corner of her eyes to look at the woman in front of her, a pair of flowered butterfly shoes, a green orchid horse-face skirt, and a crimson jacket embroidered with white daffodils, and when she looked up, she met a face as sinking as water. , The next moment, she was stunned in place.

chrysanthemum!

"Mom, go down, I have a few words to say to her alone."

There was a moment of hesitation on the woman's face, but when she met Chrysanthemum's sharp eyes, she quickly bowed her knees and said softly: "Yes, the old slave is waiting outside the door. If grandma has any orders, just call."

Chrysanthemum nodded invisibly, and she walked over from the window after the mother-in-law retreated, sat down on the black lacquered wooden table in the middle, pointed to the chair beside her and said to Zisu: " sit down."

Zisu took a breath, calmed down the anxiety caused by the sudden meeting, sat down on a chair, and took the teapot on the table to pour a glass of water for herself, and then sat down. Drink it in one gulp.

Chrysanthemum raised her brows, and a cold smile flashed across her expression. After seeing Zisu put down the teacup in her hand, she said, "Why, did I scare you?"

Zisu shook her head, looked up at Chrysanthemum, and said softly, "No, I just felt quite surprised."

"Surprised?" Chrysanthemum chuckled, put her hand painted with red danko in front of her eyes, and her gaze fell on an emerald ring on her slender finger. After a long time, she said, "I was really surprised. I knew it at first I was surprised when I was there."

Zisu was surprised when she knew what Chrysanthemum said, and she was afraid that she was in this restaurant!At the moment, he just smiled, didn't explain and didn't say much, and waited silently for Chrysanthemum to explain his intention.

"Aren't you curious?"

Zisu looked up at Chrysanthemum, "Curiosity?" She paused and said, "Curiosity for what? Curious why you came to me? Curious why you are in this situation?"

Chrysanthemum nodded.

Zi Su twitched the corners of her lips, and said flatly, "There's nothing to be curious about. Everyone wants to live a better life. Maybe you did it, but I'm still working hard."

A complicated look flashed across Chrysanthemum's eyebrows.

Yes, everyone wants to live a better life.When she didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, she thought that as long as she could eat enough and wear warm clothes, she would be fine.Now that she is full and clothed, she feels that something is missing!When she dreams back at midnight, she often feels that everything is like a dream, and she might wake up one day, and she will be beaten back to her original shape.

So worrying about gains and losses, until that day when she accidentally heard the word "Tao Zisu", the bewildered world suddenly became clear, and she couldn't wait to find it, but now she didn't know where it was again for what!

"You still hate me?"

Zi Su shook her head, "I can't say I hate it, but I can't say I don't hate it either."

Chrysanthemum nodded, thought for a while and said, "If one day you become capable, will you come to seek revenge on me?"

"Revenge?" Zisu laughed a few times, looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and said softly: "Don't you understand? I just want to live in peace and stability in this world, and let myself and my family do what I can. can live better."

See the chrysanthemum and don't say a word.

Zisu couldn't help but sigh, and put it more clearly: "If my mother and I were hurt because of you that day, revenge is of course necessary. But my mother and I didn't suffer any harm, so the matter of revenge, Just leave it alone."

Chrysanthemum was still suspicious, she looked straight at Zisu and said, "I've heard about what Gouwa did, you..."

Zisu interrupted Chrysanthemum's words impatiently: "No one gets dirty, I don't express my opinion arbitrarily, even if he admits it in front of me now, I will only let him pay me a few Rabbit." After saying that, he raised his eyes to look at Chrysanthemum, "If you feel sorry, you can turn that rabbit into cash and give it to me!"

Chrysanthemum was taken aback by what she said, and after regaining her senses, she couldn't help but frowned and said, "I have nothing to do with him, why should I pay for the debts he owes."

"That's it!" Zisu spread her hands, looked at Chrysanthemum and said, "You don't want to lose money for him, and now we have talked about the old things, there is nothing else, I will go."

When the words fell, he really got up and wanted to leave.

Chrysanthemum hurriedly got up, "Wait."

Zi Su stood still and looked at her, signaling that she had something to talk about, and she really didn't want to listen to any more irrelevant gossip.

"Tao Chenghai...he...he..."

Zi Su didn't wait for Chrysanthemum to finish speaking, then shook her head: "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Chrysanthemum stared at Zisu in a daze. After a moment of daze, she suddenly came back to her senses and couldn't help raising her voice, "How is it possible? He treats you so well, how come you don't know about him?"

"I really don't know." Zisu sighed, "You can't say how good he is to me. I'm a girl, and I still want to be famous."

"reputation!"

A flash of sarcasm flashed across Chrysanthemum's face, as if she was laughing at Zisu, after Hu Jinfu's incident, how did she get her reputation.

Well, the words are not speculative, and Zisu thought that he had nothing to say to Chrysanthemum, so he nodded, turned around and went to open the door.

"Tao Zisu!"

Zisu lowered her hand in failure, and looked back at Chrysanthemum, "Can you finish your sentence at once, so that if you talk about it all at once, diarrhea will not be as uncomfortable as you!"

"You!" Chrysanthemum was agitated by Zisu's angry words, and her expression changed, and she was about to explode, but the next moment she calmed down the anger in her chest, and said coldly: "I am not called Chrysanthemum now, and you Don't ask me what my name is, and if you meet next time, just pretend you don't know me."

"Understood." Zisu looked at the cold chrysanthemum, "Is there anything else?"

"You..." Chrysanthemum thought for a while but shook her head, "No more, you can go."

Zisu nodded, raised her hand and opened the door in front of her. Because she did it suddenly, the woman who leaned against the door to eavesdrop accidentally almost fell down. Fortunately, she moved quickly. , Holding the door frame.But he didn't feel ashamed of his eavesdropping, instead he gave Zisu a vicious look.

Zisu nodded to her, picked up her feet and went downstairs.

"Grandma," the mother-in-law walked up to the ugly-looking Chrysanthemum, and said flatteringly, "Grandma, this little girl is not good at anything. Do you want someone to teach her a lesson so that she can understand how to behave?" reason."

Chrysanthemum's pupils suddenly tightened, and the next moment, she looked at the woman beside her like a knife.It wasn't until she saw that woman trembling with cold sweat on her forehead that she gave a cold "sneer", closed her eyes, and said casually: "Liu Granny, how much courage do you have to dare to touch her? Don't blame me for not reminding you, she is the master who dares to stab people with a knife. Don't know how she died when the time comes!"

Mrs. Liu was stabbed by the chrysanthemum for a few words, her face was red and white, thinking that she could be regarded as an old man by the master's side, even if the upright wife of the family would leave her a little face, this is not good How dare a wild fox that crawled out of which hole dare to slap her face like this!Gritting her teeth secretly, she must put eye drops on this coquettish fox when she is in front of the madam.

Chrysanthemum looked at Granny Liu's old face, which turned pale and red, and felt happy in her heart.Secretly said: See if you are still posing in front of me!How dare a servant leap over his master? !

"Go and tell the proprietress to serve me one of her special dishes."

Granny Liu nodded "Yes" and stepped back.

After there was no one in the room, Chrysanthemum's tense nerves suddenly relaxed. She stared blankly at the tea cup on the table, which was only one-third left, and Zisu's words rang in her ears.

"Everyone wants to live a better life, maybe you did, and I'm still working on it."

Did she do it?

Chrysanthemum lifted her lips and gave herself a sarcastic smile.

Of course she did it, isn't the present life of luxury and good food a proof?But, why does she feel so uncomfortable in her heart, when she thinks of that simple and honest face, her heart feels like a needle prick!

Chrysanthemum slowly buried her face in her palm, and the faint fragrance of powder from her palm made her eyes even more sore.Tears are like broken beads, falling straight down with a "da da".

"grandmother……"

Mrs. Liu walked in hurriedly, when she saw Chrysanthemum's twitching shoulders, her words were stopped, now she learned how to be smart, thought about it, and quietly retreated.And the chrysanthemum in the room didn't seem to notice it, and the next moment, it was completely lying on the table.

Granny Liu went down the stairs lightly, walked to the counter, and said to Boss Chai: "Where's the little girl who went to answer our grandma's conversation just now? You call her here, I have something to ask her."

Boss Chai looked suspiciously at Mrs. Liu, who had an unfriendly expression. Just by the clothes on her body, she could tell that she was not an ordinary servant. She is small and ignorant, so please speak kindly in front of your grandma, and I will give you a [-]% discount on today's food."

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, and said lightly: "We are not people who are short of money, so don't talk too much, and quickly bring the person to me."

Boss Chai didn't dare to say any more, and Zisu had always been a well-behaved and sensible person in her eyes, even if her words were inappropriate, she would never cause any major trouble.After talking to Granny Liu, he turned and went to the back kitchen to look for perilla.

After listening to Boss Chai's words, Zisu didn't recover for a while.

What is this chrysanthemum doing?If you have something to say, you can't finish it all at once!But there is no way, the customer is God, and she has no ability to offend God right now!After wiping his hands, he followed Boss Chai and went out.

"Come with me." Granny Liu looked around, but she didn't take Zisu upstairs, but to a corner with fewer people on the side, and said to Zisu with a sullen face, "Give us all the money." What did grandma say?"

"I didn't say anything!" Zisu looked at Granny Liu and said in a daze, "Your grandma asked me what special dishes we have in the store, and I explained it to her. I didn't say anything else."

"You still dare to lie to me?" Mrs. Liu put on a face, raised her finger upstairs and said, "Little girl, you should tell me honestly, so that I can go up and ask for favor for you, otherwise if grandma is upset By the way, go to the master and say a few words, and you don't even think about opening this shop."

Zisu looked at Granny Liu's rolling eyeballs, and thought: If I hadn't been a time traveler, I'm afraid that these few words would make you cry!

Although he was calm in his heart, he showed a look of confusion on his face, choked his voice and said: "If mother-in-law doesn't believe me, I will confront you in front of your grandma." After saying that, she wanted to go upstairs Walking up, Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she grabbed her and cursed angrily, "Get out, little bitch."

Zisu raised her hand and pretended to wipe her eyes, then turned and left.

Grandma Liu spat bitterly at her back, turned around and was about to go upstairs to wait on her. She didn't want to look up, but saw Chrysanthemum standing on the stairs, looking at her with a sneer.

"Grandma..." Granny Liu suddenly smiled coldly at Chrysanthemum, her feet went limp, and she almost fell to the ground.

Chrysanthemum suppressed the smile on her face, and ordered lightly: "Let the boss pack up the ordered meals, and you take them back to the mansion. I think the master should be back by this time."

After finishing speaking, she twisted her waist, stepped on the "creaking" steps, and walked downstairs step by step. After a while, she reached the door, but at this moment, she turned her head slowly and looked inside. At first, she seemed to be blaming Granny Liu for standing still, but if you looked closely, you would find that her eyes passed through Granny Liu, and met Zisu who was standing there looking towards her.

Leaning slightly, she twitched the corners of her mouth almost invisible, and walked towards the sedan chair waiting outside the door.

And Zisu also closed her gaze, turned around and walked towards the back kitchen.

Mrs. Liu waited until Chrysanthemum's sedan chair disappeared into the alley, then stepped forward angrily, spat at the door, and cursed in a low voice, "Sometimes you cry when you step on the thing on your nose." Cursed at the guest who was looking at her secretly: "What are you looking at, be careful so that you can't eat and walk around."

"Hey, mom, please stop the fire." The proprietress heard Granny Liu's scolding, and she was afraid that some of the guests would quarrel with her. That's good, it won't take you much time."

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, but turned her eyebrows and eyes, looked at the proprietress and said, "Who are you, that little girl, she looks tricky, you should be careful."

"Little girl?" The proprietress looked at Mrs. Liu in confusion.

Granny Liu pouted her lips towards the back hall, and said coldly: "That's just now, our grandma called for questioning!"

The proprietress broke into cold sweat on her back, and said to Granny Liu with a dry smile, "I'm a child of a distant relative, and there are many brothers and sisters in my family, so I come to beg for food." After saying that, she frowned and said, "Why, she offended Your grandma?"

But without waiting for Mrs. Liu to speak, she said: "This stupid girl has caused me trouble, and I will send her to her parents later."

"It didn't offend our grandma." Granny Liu took a sip of tea, curled her lips and said, "It seems that she is familiar with our grandma. I wanted to ask a few questions, but there was no truth. What a jerk!"

"That's it!" The proprietress smiled and said: "That girl is always timid, if you have any questions, why don't you tell me, I'll go and ask."

Mrs. Liu took a look at the proprietress, curled her lips and said, "It's nothing, maybe I'm wrong."

The proprietress naturally wouldn't meddle anymore, she looked around at Granny Liu, and said tentatively, "I don't know which adult's house my mother works in."

Mrs. Liu raised her eyebrows, with a look of invincibility on her face, she said proudly: "I am a member of Commander Lin's residence, and I married Mrs. Lin into the Lin family back then. Our wife is Mrs. Lin's third matchmaker. Six hires and eight sedan chairs are married in."

The implication is that the "grandmother" she was talking about just now is nothing!
