After a few people chatted, Peacock and her sister-in-law served the food. When all the dishes were served, Lin Feng saw the landlady hesitating, as if she had something to say, so he opened his mouth and said,
"Madam boss, let's sit down and eat something with Peacock. It's quite boring for us to eat. Let's chat for a while, and it will be lively while eating."
"That's not good, you are all guests no matter what." The landlady was a little embarrassed, but Peacock didn't care about that. As soon as Lin Feng opened his mouth, she happily sat down and prepared to eat. She didn't understand those boring table manners at all. Lin Feng fell in love with her more and more. Of course, it was the kind of love that a brother would have for his sister.
When the lady boss saw that Peacock had already picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up the food, she felt a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly. Lin Feng quickly came to the rescue.
"Madam boss, sit down quickly. Look at how nice Peacock is. We just want to have a meal casually. We are not a wealthy family. We don't have so many rules. We just need to eat comfortably. We like Peacock's character. Let's sit down and eat something together. , saving you from having to do it yourself later.”
The landlady had no choice but to sit down reluctantly and began to eat the food she cooked. After eating for a while, Lin Feng felt that the time was almost up, so he asked the landlady,
"Madam boss, I haven't asked you your last name yet?"
"Oh, what about your noble surname? My name is Bai Xiang'er, from the Bai ethnic group. Peacock's nickname is Peacock. Her brother gave me the name. She is from the Han nationality." Bai Xiang'er introduced herself.
"That's it, then I'll call you Sister Bai. That's it. I believe Peacock also told you what I think. We can't bear to see you two weak women struggling to make a living in this barren mountain. Besides, Peacock's My brother also sacrificed his life for the country. As people who enjoy this comfortable life, we should help you. I believe that Peacock’s brother is also happy to see this scene. I also want him to see that there is love in the world that he sacrificed for. It's beautiful, and the sacrifice he made is worth it."
Lin Feng also felt this. Bai Xiang'er's husband died for the country and should not have to struggle to survive here, while they enjoy the comfortable environment that soldiers sacrificed their lives for. This is unfair, so he I decided to wait until the money from the sale of this famous instrument was made, and then I would set up a charity fund specifically for military personnel to serve them.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Bai Xiang'er was also moved by Lin Feng's words. Maybe she thought of her husband, and suddenly felt a little sad. She just kept saying thank you.
"Sister Bai, don't be like this. This is just a small thing we can do for you. I wonder how you and Peacock discussed it?" Lin Feng quickly comforted him.
Bai Xiang'er embarrassedly wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"Peacock and I have discussed and decided to go to Beijing with you. It's really not easy for us to live here. We only get a few guests during the tea-picking season every year. We don't have much livelihood at ordinary times and can only make ends meet. And now our children They are still young, and if our children go to school in a few years, it will be very inconvenient for us to live here.”
"That's really great. I was worried that you guys wouldn't want to leave here. After all, as the saying goes, it's hard to leave your homeland." Lin Feng was very happy to see that they agreed.
"You are right, we actually don't want to leave here, but for the sake of Peacock and our children, we have to leave here. I plan to hand over this inn to one of Peacock's cousins. Their home is not far from here, and their life is relatively difficult. , but their men are still there, so they are better off than us. I believe that if we add this inn, our life will be improved, and I don’t want this inn to be so abandoned. This is also the place where we have lived for many years. Have some great memories..."
Bai Xiang'er seemed to be immersed in beautiful memories as she spoke, probably remembering the scene when she and her husband lived together.
...
In this way, Peacock's cousin came over in the evening and successfully took over the inn. It could be seen that this simple man was very happy. Maybe he was happy that Peacock and the others had a good place to go, or maybe he was happy that he could have a They were at the inn, and they treated Lin Feng and the others very warmly.
The next day, a group of them embarked on a journey to the capital. When they arrived, the group of four became a group of six. No, there was also a little guy, that is, a group of seven. They got into the car again. The bus was still fresh in everyone's memory, and then after traveling for several days, we finally returned to our home after being away for many days.
Lin Feng stood at the door of his house, carrying Peacock's luggage and some of their local specialties, and said,
"Peacock, you and Sister Bai will stay in that room for now. That room is not rented out. We will have dinner later. After dinner, I will take you to buy some daily necessities."
"Well, okay, Brother Lin." Although Peacock was bumpy along the way, he was still a young man and became more lively after getting off the car.
After Lin Feng arranged them, he returned to his house. No one had lived in the house for so long, and a lot of dust had fallen into it. Shirley Yang originally wanted to clean it, but was stopped by Lin Feng.
"Let's go eat first. Peacock and the others have just arrived. It's a good time to catch the wind and wash away the dust for them. By the way, we can also catch the wind for ourselves. This car ride is really strenuous, so let's not be busy yet."
Shirley Yang didn't know how to do housework. She just saw that the house was a little messy and wanted to clean it up. She is a real rich lady. How can she do such things? This is why she has to do it because of a guy like Lin Feng. In short, Lin Feng said that he would not do it now, and he was naturally very happy.
The group came to a mutton-boiled restaurant that they often visited, and had a delicious meal. Then they went to buy daily necessities for the two peacocks. Shirley Yang couldn't talk about the daily necessities, but in the end she still brought Peacock and Peacock. Bai Xiang'er bought several clothes for each of them. She is a professional at shopping.
In this way, Peacock and the three of them settled down. Especially Peacock was very curious about everything in the capital. Anyway, there was nothing much to do in the past two days, so Lin Feng and his party took them to wander around the capital, eating, drinking and having fun. , but the peacock was very happy.
"Xiao Lin, I think we have had enough fun. Shouldn't we find something for us to do? We can't keep spending your money." This morning, Bai Xiang'er came to Lin Feng.
"Oh, Sister Bai, don't worry about this. I have already thought about it for you. There is no need for us to suffer from working for others. Besides, I think your craftsmanship is quite good, so I bought one at the entrance of the alley. The shop has been almost renovated in the past two days. You and Peacock will open a restaurant here, and the neighbors will also have places to eat. This business is definitely a must, what do you think?"
Lin Feng actually started doing it when he first came back, but he just kept eating, drinking and having fun before he had time to tell them.
"Really? We have been in and out the past two days, and I also saw a shop being renovated. I didn't expect you to do it for us. Thank you so much, Xiaolin."
"It's okay. Since I took over the matter, I naturally have to arrange it properly. This is the principle of my life. Don't thank me all the time. From now on, you can run this restaurant well and your family can live a good life. That's right. My greatest comfort.”
Ever since Lin Feng told Bai Xiang'er that the restaurant was bought for them, she and Peacock never went out to play. They spent all day either going to the restaurant to help decorate or at home researching what to cook after it opened, and then they didn't Let Lin Feng and the others go out to eat. Every meal was prepared by them and everyone sat down to eat together.
A week later, the restaurant was announced to be open. Lin Feng and Fatty didn't know many people, so they invited Da Jinya to celebrate together. Then the neighbors set off firecrackers to signify the opening. Peacock and Bai Xiang The son was busy and very happy, and the smile on his face never stopped all day long. Lin Feng and the others were also the hosts, and they were very busy serving tea and water.
