The reborn peasant girl wants to turn over

Chapter 170 Enthusiasm and Satisfaction
Ding Qingwen took Zhou Zhu'en's arm and walked inside while looking around.

Zhou Zhuen looks very young, about 50 or [-] years old, with piercing eyes and a high nose bridge. Zhou Shaojie's nose is obviously inherited from him.

When Zhou Zhuen was silent, he had the majesty of a soldier. When he saw Li Xiuxiu and Xu Maoqi walking towards them, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked much more kind.

Zhou Shaojie next to him introduced, "This is Xiuxiu, and this is my father."

Li Xiuxiu greeted with a smile: "Hello uncle, hello auntie."

Ding Qingwen looked at Li Xiuxiu, nodded and smiled with satisfaction, ever since she knew Shaojie liked Li Xiuxiu, she wanted to see Li Xiuxiu again, she didn't take a good look before, but unfortunately Zhou Shaojie didn't allow it, saying that she was afraid of scaring Xiuxiu and scaring her away .

In the past two days, she heard that Xiuxiu's restaurant had opened, so she urged Zhou Shaojie to have dinner together, and Zhou Shaojie agreed.

Zhou Zhuen gave a "hmm" and said, "I heard from Shaojie that your food here is delicious, come and have a taste, don't be nervous."

After listening to Zhou Zhuen's words, Li Xiuxiu's nervousness eased a lot, she smiled and led the way: "Uncle and aunt, let's go inside first and then talk."

Zhou Shaojie didn't look at Li Xiuxiu from the side, his eyes were full of smiles, Xiuxiu obviously listened to him and wore a beautiful dress.

Li Xiuxiu took them to the long table in the innermost part of the restaurant. No one was allowed to go there today, so it was a little cleaner.

Now the restaurant business is stable, and the seats are always full when it comes to eating.

The four sat on two sides, Zhou Zhuen and his wife sat on one side, Li Xiuxiu and Zhou Shaojie sat on the other side.

Xu Maoqi brought over a tray, which contained a pot of Maojian and a platter of various dried fruits.

Li Xiuxiu said: "I just ordered the kitchen to cook, and it will take about 10 minutes to serve. Uncles and aunts can try the dried fruits here. These dried fruits are made by ourselves in the restaurant, which is relatively clean."

The dried fruit platter was a pear-blossom white porcelain plate, on which melon seeds, peanut kernels, dried sweet potatoes, hazelnuts, and red dates were neatly separated.

Only a small handful of each kind of dried fruit is placed, which looks very delicate.

Ding Qingwen thought the platter was beautiful and delicious, so he smiled and said to Zhou Zhuen: "Xiuxiu is indeed a meticulous person. You can't look at a dried fruit platter. They are all so careful. It makes people like it. Let our nanny arrange dried fruits like this in the future."

Zhou Zhu'en said: "As long as you like it."

Ding Qingwen reached out and grabbed two dried sweet potatoes, ate one by himself, then took the other and fed it directly to Zhou Zhuen's mouth.

Zhou Zhuen frowned, "Be careful, this is outside."

Ding Qingwen said angrily: "Xiuxiu is not an outsider."

Li Xiuxiu smiled awkwardly, tilted her head slightly, but saw Zhou Shaojie looking at him, as if she was also hoping that she would feed him a sweet potato stick.

Li Xiuxiu quickly turned her face away again, and then saw that Zhou Zhuen just opened his mouth to eat the sweet potato strips in Ding Qingwen's hand.

Zhou Zhu'en swallowed, nodded and said: "It's really good, Xiuxiu, when I leave later, I'll wrap some for your aunt."

Li Xiuxiu nodded in agreement, feeling that the relationship between Yingying Commander Zhou's parents was really good.

Ding Qingwen was smiling, obviously in a good mood, and said, "Xiuxiu, the decoration of your restaurant is really unique, making people feel as comfortable as eating here as at home, didn't you put a lot of thought into it?"

Li Xiuxiu said: "Fortunately, there is Manager Xu, basically he is watching people do it."

Zhou Zhu'en nodded after hearing this, she was modest and kept out of the limelight, which is pretty good for this girl.

Ding Qingwen asked again: "Now you are a clothing factory, a headwear factory, and a restaurant, can you be busy?"

Li Xiuxiu said with a smile: "The garment factory is fortunate to have sister Shan in charge. I just make a few clothes. The headwear factory is also run with others. Recently, the battalion commander Zhou introduced someone to me and helped us a lot. Basically, I don’t need to stare at it every day. The restaurant was a little busy in the first few days when it just opened, and now it’s on the right track. With Manager Xu staring at me, it’s nothing to do with me. The most idle."

Ding Qingwen said with a smile: "You are a sneaky one, and you have pushed everything to others. If you have time, you will come to my house to accompany me. Shaojie is far away, and your uncle never comes home. I am the only one." It's very busy, it would be great if you could come."

For a moment, Li Xiuxiu regretted what she just said was too easy, and nodded with a smile.

Zhou Zhu'en asked: "I heard from Shaojie that you lived in Mr. Zeng's yard when you were in Lan Ling? How is Mr. Zeng's health?"

Li Xiuxiu nodded, and said: "Mr. Zeng practices Tai Chi for an hour every day. His body looks good and he can eat well. It's just that he is always alone, and his hands are not convenient, which makes people very worried."

Zhou Zhu'en listened carefully to Li Xiuxiu's words, and said: "It's not easy for him to be an old man, and it's rare to have a relationship with you, so write him more letters when you have time."

Li Xiuxiu obediently agreed.

Just as the food was ready, Xu Maoqi led the other waiters to bring the food over.

Li Xiuxiu stood up and helped serve the dishes.

"Uncle, I asked Battalion Commander Zhou, and I knew that you also like spicy food, so I asked the kitchen to make a dish of boiled fish and a dish of spicy chicken. The rest of the dishes are not spicy. You can try them. .”

Zhou Zhu'en said: "I heard from Shaojie before that the boiled fish here is pretty good, and now you can eat it."

He picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and tasted it slowly. It was spicy, fresh and tender, which was very appetizing to him.

He smiled and nodded, "It's really good, if only I can eat it often in the future."

Ding Qingwen immediately said: "Don't worry, you can eat it often in the future."

She glanced at her son, although Zhou Shaojie looked serious on the surface, but her son knew that this kid was happy in his heart.

Ding Qingwen was even more satisfied with Li Xiuxiu.

For the next time, the few people stopped talking and ate quietly. Looking at the expressions of the three members of the Zhou family, they were obviously satisfied with the meal.

After dinner, Ding Qingwen took Li Xiuxiu's hand affectionately, stuffed a box into her hand, and said, "You can take this bracelet and play with it."

Li Xiuxiu hurriedly pushed back, "Auntie, you won't be rewarded for nothing, I can't accept such a valuable thing from you."

Ding Qingwen laughed angrily and said, "How can you make me useless? You made three sets of clothes for me before, and you haven't thanked you very much. Today, you let us have such a good meal. Besides, I like you when I look at you, very happy." I want to bring you home, I can see it every day, but it’s just a bracelet, I’ll have something better for you in the future.”

Li Xiuxiu suddenly felt that the bracelet was very heavy, and she didn't want to take it away. She looked at Zhou Shaojie for help.
