Chapter 104 Let Them Jump

The next day, the entire Qili Town was discussing something.

"Have you heard? The Quanfu Building was full yesterday!"

"It is said that Quanfulu has improved their signature dishes and introduced several new dishes. People who have eaten those dishes are full of praise! Even, many people say that these dishes in Quanfulu are far from Victory over Juju Building and Bazhen Building!"

"Really? Is it that exaggerated? I have to try it tomorrow!"

"I also need to go!"

……

The reason why Quan Fu Lou was full of guests yesterday was because most of the guests were babysitters that Ye Qiongdan asked Master Su to invite.

Everyone is curious, and as long as one thing is hyped well, it will naturally bring a lot of commercial effect.

Ye Qiongxiang came back from the cloth shop outside, and said with a smile: "Adan, your idea is really wonderful! I just passed by Quanfulou, and it's not three o'clock now, and the restaurant is still full of seats. Logically speaking, The people that Master Su hired to eat have already finished their meal and left, right?"

"Perhaps." Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly.

"Where's Liu Xiusheng?" Ye Qiongxiang asked.

"Ask for leave again."

"Oh." Failing to see him, Ye Qiongxiang's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she walked into the backyard gloomily with the cloth she bought.

Qinghe County, Anqing Garden.

The sound of gongs and drums, the lyrics are tactful.

On the stage, a group of people in brightly colored costumes were seriously singing and playing.

Under the stage, there are a group of masters and wives dressed in silk and satin, eating melon seeds and watching the show.

"it is good!"

After a wonderful fight, there was a round of warm applause from the audience.

Manager Fu sat in the first row, put down the melon seeds in his hand, and threw five taels of silver at the boy who came forward to beg for the reward in a great mood, which attracted the boy to thank him repeatedly.

Before paying the steward to grab another handful of melon seeds, Ah Cai walked in with a bowed body, and whispered in his ear: "Master Steward, something is wrong, the business of the Quanfulou in Qili Town yesterday , It really surpasses the Bazhen Building opened by our Wu's Chamber of Commerce in Qili Town!"

"I'm afraid there's something tricky about it?" Manager Fu grabbed the melon seeds and licked them casually, still with a habitual smirk on his face.

"Today, Quanfulu's business is also very good," Ah Cai said.

"Let them go for a couple of days. The real gold will have to be refined by fire. If the dishes and services of Quan Fu Lou are not as good as Ba Zhen Lou, then their good business will only be short-lived. Soon, they will all Fu Lou will become the joke of the whole Qili Town."

"But a small messenger has inquired about it, and according to that person, Quan Fu Lou's recipes have indeed been improved, and the taste is completely different from before!" Ah Cai strengthened his tone.

"What a big difference?" Manager Fu smiled and shook his head, "In less than half a month, their Quanfulou's cowhide will be blown to pieces!"

"My lord, should we just let Quanfulou do this?" Cai was still a little worried, "There are six towns under Qinghe County, if the business of Bazhenlou in Qili Town is affected, will it look bad on the books? what."

"It's only a few days, how can it hurt your muscles and bones? Don't worry about it!" At this time, Huadan on the stage sang another wonderful part, Manager Fu immediately dropped the melon seeds, slapped the table, and shouted with other guests shouted, "Good!"

Qili Town, Jiuwei Restaurant.

Half an hour later, Liu Xiusheng came back.

"Master Ye, my younger sister is at Guang Ren Tang in Qili Town. She looks much better today. Is Master Ye finished?" Liu Xiusheng smiled at her. Whenever he showed this smile to other girls, the other girl My heart beats faster and my cheeks feel hot.

However, Ye Qiongdan lowered her head calmly, put the account book into the counter, took a sip of the herbal tea on the counter, and glanced at the weather outside again: "It's too hot, I don't want to go see your sister today."

Liu Xiusheng suddenly felt that his breath was held in his stomach and he couldn't get it out.

He took a leave of absence this afternoon, under the sun, looking for a good girl from his old friend, and asking him to go to the hospital to pretend to be a patient, he was so busy that he was almost suffering from heat stroke.

In the end, Ye Qiongdan couldn't talk anymore?

Isn't he busy in vain?
He could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart and continue to smile: "What about tomorrow?"

"Of course I will go tomorrow," Ye Qiongdan nodded, "Oh, by the way, you have only been here for a few days at Jiuwei Restaurant, and you have asked for leave twice. I think there is something wrong with your attitude. From now on, every time you ask for leave , I will deduct your wages for one day."

"Master Ye, is this..."

"Please don't question my decision, because I am the shopkeeper, but you are not," Ye Qiongdan said seriously, "If you behave well in the future, I may consider giving you three days of paid vacation a month."

"Master Ye, in fact, yesterday I saw the unique patterns on your sleeves and wanted to take a closer look," Liu Xiusheng forcefully explained in a natural tone, "My sister is very good at needlework and often embroiders some handkerchiefs to subsidize the household income." , I thought that when I saw my sister, I would tell her about this fresh pattern, maybe she could embroider it and sell it for a high price in the cloth shop."

"Really?" Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows slightly, "But these are two different things. Even though your original intention for your outrageous behavior yesterday was just to see the pattern on my sleeve, but within a few days after you came to the shop, you asked It’s also true that I took two vacations.”

After all, Ye Qiongdan went into the backyard, making it clear that he didn't want to talk to him anymore.

After Ye Qiongdan entered the backyard, he saw the second daughter-in-law opened the door and came out yawning.

She walked over, tugged on the sleeve of the second daughter-in-law, and entered her room.

"What's the matter? Is there anything you can't say in broad daylight?" The second daughter-in-law closed the door again and put the latch on it.

"Yesterday, I asked Uncle Chen's nephew to follow Liu Xiusheng who was on leave, and it turned out that he knew Manager Fu and told him about the relationship between me and Quanfulou," Ye Qiongdan said seriously, "Fu The steward didn't pay much attention to Quanfulou's affairs, but told Liu Xiusheng to hurry up and do another matter."

"What's the matter?" The second wife said quickly.

"do not know."

"It must be about the recipes and recipes!" The second wife slapped her thigh, "No, I have to settle the score with him! I'm thinking about how I, You Yue'e, make money. Today, I, You Yue'e, have to teach him how to make money. Be a man!"

"Don't go," Ye Qiongdan shook his head, "He knows Guanshi Fu, so what does that mean? What if you wronged him? Xiang girl still has to create a estrangement with you, so Liu Xiusheng is her lifesaver after all. Portions are different."

"What's wrong with the savior? When I saw that kid, I felt uneasy and kind! And that manager Fu was even more uneasy! He knew Guanshi Fu, so what does that mean? It means that Liu Xiusheng is the person that Manager Fu put in our place! He The fox's tail is exposed, and if we don't cut off his fox's tail, do we have to wait for him to show his fangs?" The second wife was anxious and angry.

"Catch thieves and take stolen goods! We also pay attention to evidence in our actions!" Ye Qiongdan said after deliberation, "You observe for another two days, didn't Manager Fu tell him to act quickly? If his purpose is really prescriptions and recipes, then he Immediately he will show his cheating feet, and when we catch his cheating feet, Xiang girl will understand in her heart."

"I still have to wait!"

"If you are willing to have a estrangement between Xiangyao and you from now on, then you can rush out with a broom now, and I won't stop you," Ye Qiongdan persuaded earnestly, "We are all for Xiangyue's sake." Okay, but sometimes, to be good for her is to pay attention to the way and method, not to use self-righteous ways to make her feel hurt."

"You!" The second daughter-in-law pointed at her, stared at her, and said discouragedly after a while, "I can't say no to you!"

When Ye Qiongdan went out, the second daughter-in-law muttered unhappily: "After surviving this catastrophe, it's really like a different person. I'm afraid that even scholars can't say anything about you."

"It's called walking around the world with reason, but it's hard to walk without reason."

After a busy day, Ye Qiongdan and Ye Qinghan returned to Shanghe Village.

Today, my fourth uncle was called out to play by Xue Goudan again in the evening.

After he came back, he told Ye Qiongdan that Xue Goudan gave him water soaked in sugar today. He thought the water soaked in sugar tasted better than the taste of candied haws.

Ye Qiongdan thought to himself, perhaps because of having friends, even if the two of them drank simple sugar soaked water, they still felt that the taste was much better than candied haws.Seeing that he has a friend who is sincerely good to him, Ye Qiongdan is also sincerely happy for him.

But at this time, Xue Goudan went to the small forest in the back mountain.

"Ye Jigang! Are you there?" Xue Goudan whispered.

Ye Jigang hid behind a tree, and after observing that there was no one behind him, he came out slowly, took out a paper bag from his pocket, and put twenty copper plates on the paper bag.

"Why did you give me so many copper coins today?" Xue Goudan grabbed the copper coins overjoyed, and tossed them with his palms up. The crisp sound of the copper coins hitting each other made this simple child laugh heartily.

"This is your reward for today and tomorrow." Ye Jigang was not affected by his smile, his eyes were a little cold, like a river in an autumn night, "tomorrow, you let him continue to dig sugar in the mouse hole, and then talk to him Said, to learn to share with family members, let him put this bag of white sugar into the kitchen water tank, and dissolve it with water."

"Oh," Xue Goudan nodded, "Ye Jigang, do you want to get back together with the second and third bedrooms? Since you want to show them your favor, you should show them in a dignified manner. Otherwise, even if you From now on, if you give them white sugar every day, they will not know that the white sugar is from you."

"Remember my words," Ye Jigang lowered his head, stared into his eyes, and warned, "Don't tell anyone about this!"

At that moment, Xue Goudan actually felt that Ye Jigang, who had always been a harmless scholar, looked a little scary.

He nodded subconsciously, and swallowed with some fear.

"Go." Ye Jigang patted him on the shoulder.

Xue Goudan ran away quickly, and only when he was far away did he wonder whether it was because of the dim light in the woods that he made a mistake?

Ye Jigang is a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, how could he have terrible eyes?
