Tong Zhaofu smiled and shook his head.

"Second Sister, let's get up early tomorrow," Tong Zhu'er said with excitement on her face.But Tong Zhi'er shook her head, "Zhu'er, we will be at home tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to make dolls with Eldest Sister and Lanhua."

Tong Zhu'er let out an "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

"Today I finished laying the foundation. I took a look, and the work is very meticulous and reliable." After talking about Tong Zhi'er selling dolls, Tong Zhixin talked about the progress of building the house.

"When the work is finished, let's treat everyone to a good meal." Fang Cuiwei also said with a smile. She worked hard for her family, so it's natural for the host to show it and invite everyone to have a meal together.

Tong Zhixin nodded. He predicted the progress of tomorrow's completion. The family heard about it, and then went to bed.

……

The next day, in the morning, the sun was in the sky.

A carriage parked in front of Fangfang Restaurant, and after a while, the shopkeeper and manager of Fangfang Restaurant came out.

"Han, I will go out with the shopkeeper, and you will take care of the restaurant." Manager Zhang instructed an honest middle-aged man.

The man named Ah Han grinned his yellow teeth, and his smile is simple and simple, which suits his name very well.

"Don't worry, Manager Zhang, I will take good care of the restaurant."

Although Ah Han looks very simple, his temper and brain are not simple at all. If anyone wants to take advantage of his simple appearance, it is definitely asking for trouble.

Guanshi Zhang nodded, turned around and got into the carriage.

The interior of the carriage was very spacious. Qin An reclined on the cushioned couch with a book in one hand and his head in the other. "Shopkeeper, everything about the restaurant has been arranged."

Qin An turned the pages and said "Mmm".

Guanshi Zhang lifted the curtain and said to the coachman, "Let's go."

.........

Tong Zhixin was helping people pass the bricks, and at the same time helping with the mud for the bricks, he raised his head inadvertently, and saw a carriage coming towards Linzi's house, Tong Zhixin took a few extra glances.

When the carriage drove towards the road into the courtyard, Tong Zhixin was sure that it came to his house.Putting down the work in hand, Tong Zhixin wiped his hands and ran over quickly.

Inside the house, Fang Cuiwei, who heard the sound of the carriage, also came out and stood at the door.

The carriage stopped, and Guanshi Zhang opened the curtain and went down.

"Guan Zhang!" Tong Zhixin shouted in surprise.

"Guard Zhang, please come to the house." Fang Cuiwei was also very surprised. He didn't expect that the person who came would be the steward who would just let him go upstairs.Manager Zhang smiled, and walked into the house in no hurry. He pointed to the car and said, "My shopkeeper is also in the car."

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei were even more surprised this time.

They were not particularly surprised when Guanshi Zhang came, but they were flattered when the shopkeeper Qin from a restaurant came.

A shiny white hand lifted a corner of the car curtain, revealing Qin An's handsome and refined face.

"Treasurer Qin——"

"Boss Tong, Mrs. Tong."

Steward Zhang immediately went up to hold up the curtain of the carriage, and asked Qin An to get off the carriage.

"Shopkeeper Qin, please come to the room quickly." Once Qin An landed on the ground, Tong Zhixin said enthusiastically.

Qin An nodded and entered the house.

Fang Cuiwei went to the house to bring out the best tea leaves. When Tong Duoer and others saw them, they asked, "Mother, are there any guests at home?"

"Well, the shopkeeper Qin from Fangfang Restaurant is here." Fang Cuiwei couldn't hide her excitement, "Zhier, Zhuer, the two of you went to the county to buy some things and came back."

"Okay." Putting down the work in hand, Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er nodded, took the money and went out.When passing by the lobby, Tong Zhi'er greeted Qin An openly and said, "Master Qin——"

Qin An smiled, "Are you going to the county?"

Seeing the purse in Tong Zhi'er's hand, Qin An speculated.

Tong Zhi'er didn't hide from him, nodded, and said, "Go to the county to buy some things. Shopkeeper Qin, Manager Zhang, sit down, we'll go first."

"and many more----"

Seeing that Tong Zhi'er said she was going to leave, Qin An stopped her, "If it's to entertain us, then there's no need to go to the county to buy more, we're just looking at the mushroom field in the forest, and it won't take long , I will leave in a while."

Hearing what Qin An said, Tong Zhixin became anxious, "Shopkeeper Qin, it's not easy for you to come all the way here, so leave after eating."

Tong Zhi'er also nodded, "Shopkeeper Qin, just prepare some home-cooked meals, you can eat before leaving."

Qin An blinked and nodded slowly.

Fang Cuiwei didn't waste time, called Tong Duo'er and Tong Zhu'er and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhixin led Qin An and Zhang Guanshi to the area where the mushrooms were grown in the forest.

Looking at the towering trees with luxuriant branches and leaves, Qin An asked Tong Zhidao: "This forest belongs to your family?"

Tong Zhixin smiled and nodded, "My family just bought it."

When he arrived in the carriage just now, Qin An saw an endless forest from the window of the car. Such a large forest belonged to Tong Zhixin's family. forest, there must be some story in it.

"It's also thanks to Zhi'er that the family is so good. In the past, the old people said that there were wild beasts in this forest, and no one dared to come. Then one day, Zhi'er went into the forest and found that there were actually no animals in the forest. There is no beast like the old people said, and later, when I bought this place, I didn't spend much money, but I persuaded many people..."

Thinking of what happened at that moment, Tong Zhixin couldn't help but smile.

Qin An also laughed, and joked: "It's a good pick for Boss Tong."

Tong Zhixin touched his head and laughed.

Tong Zhi'er, who was leading the way, turned around, looked at Qin An and said, "That's because my father is brave enough to buy it. If it's someone else, he might not dare to pick this up."

"Zhier..."

Tong Zhixin felt helpless when his daughter praised herself in front of others.

Qin An laughed out loud, he didn't expect this girl to be a protectionist.

"Ah———" Suddenly, Tong Zhi'er didn't pay attention, and touched a piece of exposed tree root by his ankle, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.There was a dead branch protruding right in front of him. If Tong Zhi'er's face brushed against it, he didn't know what would happen.

Seeing this scene, Tong Zhixin's heart almost jumped out. He ran forward quickly, but there was someone faster than him.

Qin An grabbed Tong Zhi'er's arm with one hand, and with all his strength, he wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her into his arms.

"Are you okay?" Qin An asked anxiously.

Tong Zhi'er shook his head, feeling terrified for a while, almost having an accident.

"Zhi'er..." Tong Zhixin ran over at this time.

Tong Zhi'er struggled a bit, Qin An immediately released her, lightened her arms, Qin An was startled.

"Did you get hurt anywhere? Huh?" Tong Zhixin looked Tong Zhi'er up and down, with anxious eyes.

"Father, I'm fine. Shopkeeper Qin stopped me."

Tong Zhixin turned his head to look at Qin An, cupped his hands 12 gratefully and said, "Master Qin, thank you very much."

Qin An shook his head, "It should."

Tong Zhixin didn't understand this sentence, but Zhang Guanshi who was following behind did.

The shopkeeper said the meaning behind the words in advance...

Because of this little episode, Tong Zhixin was extra careful when he came out after seeing the area where the mushrooms grew, and he was especially grateful to Qin An.

"The forest is so big, there should be a lot of things. Besides selling mushrooms, what kind of business does your family plan to do?" In the lobby, Qin An asked with a smile after drinking tea.

"My family still has a few acres of land in the wild fruit forest. When the fruit is ripe, we also make candied fruit for sale. The rest is the land for growing peanuts. We can sell peanuts when we plant peanuts next year."

"How much land is there to grow peanuts?"

Tong Zhixin smiled, "Fifty acres."

"How about it, Boss Tong, when your family grows peanuts next year, all the peanuts will be dried and bought for my restaurant."

Tong Zhixin blinked his eyes, his peanuts haven't been planted yet, so there is a market for them?For this, Tong Zhixin was very grateful, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Qin, next year my peanuts will be planted properly, and I will send them to your restaurant when the time comes."

The two talked for a while, and when they learned that Tong Zhixin was building a new brick house, Qin An went to have a look.

After seeing the brick house, Fang Cuiwei and the others in the kitchen prepared lunch after returning from this trip.

There are four dishes and one soup in total, a plate of scrambled eggs with leeks, a plate of fried Chinese cabbage, a plate of green beans, a plate of shredded potatoes, and finally a bowl of egg drop mushroom soup.

Tong Zhu'er went to the forest and called Tong Zhaoyin who was still working.

Fang Cuiwei and the other children stayed at the table, while Tong Zhixin, Shopkeeper Qin, Guanshi Zhang and Tong Zhaoyin took their seats.When eating, pay attention to not talking, and eat a meal very quietly.

"Shopkeeper Qin, Manager Zhang, you came to my house, and I don't have any good food to entertain you, so I'm really sorry." After dinner, Tong Zhixin said apologetically.

Qin An smiled, "The dishes are delicious. We rescued them without saying hello. We are the ones who caused trouble. Boss Tong is too polite. So, we are leaving. Boss Tong, if you need help , just come to the restaurant in the county to find me. Farewell——"

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei sent Qin An and Guanshi Zhang to the carriage, and watched the carriage go far before entering the house.

Entering the house, Tong Zhixin told Fang Cuiwei what Qin An had just said about harvesting peanuts next year, and what Qin An had saved from Tong Zhier's fall in the forest.

Fang Cuiwei was startled when she heard that, and looked at Tong Zhi'er again, seeing that there was really no injury on her body, she felt relieved.

"Shopkeeper Qin really has nothing to say to our family, the child's father, when there is more honey in the forest, let's send the honey to Shopkeeper Qin."

"Well, I'll go get it done after I've been busy for a while. You and the children have dinner, and I'll go to work." Holding a pot of boiled water, Tong Zhixin walked to the foundation of the brick house.
