Traveling through the mountains and fields to be leisurely

Chapter 67 Can't Go

Seeing how her daughter was playing tricks, Lin Qiutang couldn't bear to force her to learn,
"Okay, okay, you can go about your business, but you have to learn how to make clothes, even if you don't want to learn, but you must know how to make underwear, socks and the like. It's for personal use, and I can't let outsiders do it, even if it's a daughter in the back house, she still has to do these jobs by herself."

"I remember, mother, I will learn it soon, but I just have to wait, so don't worry."

What can I do if I don't feel at ease, Lin Qiutang can only look at the back of her daughter flying away like a butterfly.

"Uncle Zihao, let's go to town and let the two of them practice first."

Lan Lingxue ran to the back of the house and saw Lin Zihao who was punching and watching the two little guys squatting, and hurriedly told him to hurry up.

"Go and take a shower, we'll leave right away, Xiaozhu is still waiting."

Lan Lingxue didn't realize that she had slipped her tongue,
"Okay, I'll come."

Lin Zihao did not expose Lan Lingxue, he knew that Lan Lingxue went to sell vegetables with his second brother every morning, although he was a little curious about the origin of the vegetables, but he was a principled person after all, and did not keep this secret Don't let it go, he thought, as long as he treats him sincerely, one day, Lan Lingxue will willingly tell him the secret,
"Squat in the horse stance and then stop for a stick of incense. Don't practice for too long, Zhiyuan, you take a small hoe to practice the boxing method that I have kept you practicing for the past few days. After you finish the horse stance, practice this Set boxing, the muscles are not easy to be injured, you two can practice for half an hour, remember?"

"Remember, master."

An Zhiyuan glanced at Lan Lingxue, then quickly withdrew his gaze, his eyes resolutely assured the master,

"Little hoe, you have to listen to your brother. The master has something to go out. After you finish practicing with your brother, take a warm bath to relieve fatigue, and then follow your brother to learn how to read."

Little Hoe also nodded seriously,
"Understood, master, I will study hard."

"What a good boy."

Because the little hoe was squatting, Lin Zihao, who wanted to touch his head, moved his steps and stopped, gave a thumbs up to the little hoe, and then walked quickly towards Lan Lingxue.

The matter went surprisingly smoothly. Meng Fansheng not only helped to keep an eye on the shop, but also helped find a trustworthy dentist. Therefore, Lin Zihao and Lan Lingxue signed the subletting documents smoothly all the way, and went to the yamen For the record, this shop is not any one I saw at the beginning, but Meng Fansheng found another shop for them. This street is obviously more prosperous than the market street where Li Yongtai's grain shop is located. This kind of prosperity is not There are more people, but the quality of people is obviously higher. The streets are not as crowded as when the market street was open. The streets are very wide, but the streets are full of cars, and the people who get on and off the cars are all dressed in silk and satin. Clothes, followed by maids, mothers-in-law or servants, even if they are walking, the clothes on their bodies are obviously much better, no matter how you look at it, they look like stewards and buyers in various mansions, nothing else Lan Lingxue is very satisfied with this geographical location alone. Although the price is a bit higher than what she and Uncle Zihao saw at the beginning, in Lan Lingxue's opinion, the price is still very reasonable, even very cheap Yes, needless to say, Uncle Meng must have put a lot of effort into it. Lan Lingxue has kept all these kindnesses in his heart. The mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there will always be a chance to repay them in the future.

Seeing Lan Lingxue looking left and right in the shop, with an excited expression on her face, one can see her satisfaction. Lin Zihao got the money very easily, and it must be a mistake to make the little girl laugh like this. No, this is a one-in-one shop, the outside is used as a storefront, and the inside is used as a back stove, it should be just right.
"Uncle Zihao, let's paint the walls of the shop and add a counter here. The room at the back will be used as the back kitchen for baking cakes. Do you think so?"

Measuring the size with her hands, Lan Lingxue has already begun to imagine,
"Okay, why not, you can do it just by looking at it. I just take the money and you take care of the rest. I don't know anything about business."

Lin Zihao really didn't know how to do it, and he planned to hand over all these trivial matters to Lan Lingxue,

"It's not okay for you to push things around before opening. If our business is very good and we are too busy to take care of it, why don't you help?"

In Lan Lingxue's imagination, once the shop opened, there would be a flood of people.
"It's a good idea. Look at the shops on this street, which one is too busy. If our shop is really too busy, then I will burn the incense, and my capital will come back immediately. .”

"Uncle Zihao, you are really easy to be satisfied, just look at it, I will definitely make you a lot of money."

Lin Zihao laughed boldly, seeing Lan Lingxue's complacent look, he didn't want to hit her, Lin Zihao didn't believe that such a small dim sum shop could make a lot of money like Lan Lingxue said, He just wanted to find a job to make a living without losing money. He really didn't think about how much he would earn. Besides, this was just a small town, not in the prosperous capital.

"Uncle Zihao, let's bring the whole family over tomorrow, and let our father and mother come to see our shop. They will be very happy. Let's discuss how we can run the shop better."

On the way home, Lan Lingxue happily chatted with Lin Zihao, her big eyes were crooked with a smile, and her long eyelashes flickered like a small brush that made people feel itchy, a little naive , will make you more pure, and your heart will be like the sky, vast and blue,
"Well, let's all come tomorrow, paint the house, move the oven and tools back, find someone to build a counter, and..."

Lin Zihao cooperated with Lan Lingxue and imagined with her,

"Let's go quickly. I can't wait to tell my parents the good news. Little Hoe and Brother Zhiyuan will be happy too."

Seeing Lan Lingxue's obviously quickened pace, Lin Zihao, who was waiting for her, also quickened his pace, and the two quickly walked back to the village.

"Father, mother, I'm back."

Before reaching the door of the house, Lan Lingxue shouted anxiously,
"Sister, sister, you are back."

The little hoe came out first,
"I've been waiting impatiently, why did you come back?"

"Zihao and I ran back."

Little Hoe looked at Lan Lingxue and Lin Zihao,

"Hmph, I don't believe it, you lied to me again, neither of you broke a sweat."

Lan Lingxue giggled happily, touched her little brother's head,
"Our little hoe has grown up, and we can't even coax it."

"Don't touch my head, I'm a man now."

Dodging her sister's hand, Little Hoe ran into the house, and Lan Lingxue also followed in,
"Father, mother, I'm back."

"How are things going?"

Seeing her daughter enter the door, Lin Qiutang took her hand and asked impatiently,
"With Uncle Meng's help, it's a trivial matter, and it's easy to handle."

An Zhiyuan, who heard the voice from Westinghouse and followed him in, saw the thin little girl, waving her arms imposingly, and made a gesture of grasping tightly. Such a domineering gesture, let her make it, unexpectedly With some gentle feeling, An Zhiyuan's heart also became gentle.

"Look at how beautiful you are. If it weren't for you, Uncle Meng, it wouldn't be so smooth."

Lan Erzhuang sincerely discouraged his daughter's enthusiasm. Seeing her curling her lips, he laughed too. Life is really getting better and better. The past has come more and more and become blurred. With a sweet taste,

"Mother, you don't know, that shop is located on the busiest street in the town. To the left of our shop is a jewelry store, and to the right is an embroidery and garment shop. In this way, people who come to buy jewelry or People who buy ready-made clothes and embroidery are all wealthy people. When they come and go, they will always see our dim sum shop. I want to make the dim sum very cute, so they will stop by and buy it back. For some, I will also make the dim sum delicious, so that they will want to eat it again, and our business will soon be popular.”

Lan Lingxue ignored her father and turned to tell her mother about the shop, her own thoughts, and the imagined future.

"You want to make snacks? Go to the shop?"

Lin Qiutang had just heard this big news, and finally figured it out, the daughter actually wanted to go to the shop in the town to make snacks, it was absolutely impossible,
"You're still young, you can't bear it, and you're still a girl, how can you go to work in the shop, you can't do the work that shows your face."

The life at home is getting better day by day. Lin Qiutang is still thinking about finding a decent husband's family for her daughter. If people know that she used to do business in public, that's fine. People with higher thresholds pay more attention to this.
"Mom, I'm just making snacks in the back kitchen, not showing my face."

"That's not okay, the shop is not the place where you, a girl, should go."

Lin Qiutang was very persistent about this matter, the little girl who was not engaged, could not go to such a place where people come and go.

"mother--"

Lan Lingxue wanted to act coquettishly with her mother to make her change her mind,

"This is not negotiable, absolutely not."

Unexpectedly, Lin Qiutang unexpectedly insisted,

"Zihao, Xiaolanzi must not go to the shop, I think we should hire a pastry chef."

Afraid of Lin Zihao's objection, after all, when the girl said she would invest in technology, Lin Qiutang turned her head to seek Lin Zihao's opinion. Lin Zihao didn't even think about how big the shop could be, so it didn't matter whether Lan Lingxue could go or not.

"Okay, sister-in-law, let's hire a pastry chef, and I'll post the notice tomorrow."

Lan Lingxue didn't want to compromise. After all, this was her first property in this era. She wanted to make it perfect, and wanted to leave a certificate of honor for herself.
"Mom, my dim sum is something no one else can make. It's our own shop. You want to make it popular, don't you? I'm just making dim sum in the back kitchen. What does it matter?"
