The sun is in full bloom.
The sun shone on Li Xiuhong's face, making her look as beautiful as a flower.
With a cute look on her face, she greeted shyly: "Master Zheng, Master Qian."
Zheng Wangfeng turned sideways and made way for him.
Qian Hui couldn't help but swallow as he stared at Li Xiuhong. He was fascinated that such a beautiful woman could come out of such a messy place.
But then, he thought that he was the one who was about to take credit from the prefect. At this juncture, he must not cause trouble.
He moved to the side to avoid it.
Li Xiuhong lowered her head and bit her lower lip. She forced herself to take the initiative. Only by taking this step could she live the life she dreamed of.
She took out a white handkerchief from her sleeve and suddenly knelt down: "The brocade boots of the two young masters are dirty. Please don't move your feet while I clean them."
Zheng Wangfeng and Qian Hui really didn't move.
Soon, their shoes were wiped clean by Li Xiuhong, and the white handkerchief was covered with mud.
She stood up and said: "Actually, there is a room in my aunt's house that is very clean. The floor is paved with bluestone and the mattresses are all newly bought for my cousin's wedding. They haven't had time to use them yet. If the two young masters don't If you don’t like it, you can move to my aunt’s house for a few nights.”
Zheng Wangfeng and Qian Hui stayed at Li Zheng's house last night. Li Zheng had a one-year-old baby girl who kept crying in the middle of the night. The two were so noisy that they didn't sleep well all night. If only they could have a better place to live. , that’s really what you want.
However, Qian Hui did not dare to have high expectations for the house in Dahe Village and said, "Take us to see it first."
Li Xiuhong was secretly happy and led the way.
As soon as they walked to the main road of the village, the three of them met Cheng Wanwan who was on his way to Lao Zhao's house.
Cheng Wanwan frowned: "Master Zheng, Master Qian, what are you doing?"
She stared at Li Xiuhong. This look made Li Xiuhong feel guilty inexplicably, and her head dropped lower.
Cheng Wanwan had already noticed that something was wrong. This Li Xiuhong seemed to have wanted to hook up with Cheng Zhao before, but was blocked repeatedly, so now she has changed her target?
She didn't want to wade into the muddy water, so she stepped up to leave, but after thinking about it, she still reminded her: "Scholars should know the principle of great defense between men and women. There is a big girl in the Zhang family, so you two should try not to go there."
Zheng Wangfeng and Qian Hui were only seventeen or eighteen years old. As elders, she should give them a warning.
But after she said that, it was not up to her to decide whether the two of them were willing to listen to her.
She took the things in her hands and walked into Lao Zhao's house.
Li Xiuhong pinched the corner of her clothes tightly. She opened her mouth to explain something, but she didn't know how to explain it.
Zheng Wangfeng stood there and thought for a moment, then said quietly: "Let's keep walking."
Li Xiuhong was overjoyed: "Yes, Master Zheng!"
She led the way and walked very fast, fearing that something might happen again.
Qian Hui whispered: "Brother Zheng, I think what Second Aunt Cheng Zhao said is reasonable. Otherwise, we should live at Li Zheng's house."
Although Li Zheng's family is noisy, the women are either old people, wives, or less than ten years old, so there are no hidden dangers.
The Qian family is a big and wealthy family, and all the maids in the house want to climb into the young master's bed. He is only seventeen years old, and there are many maids in the house who are married to him. He is not taboo about this matter. If there are When a woman comes to his door, he will naturally take her into the back house, and no one will say anything to him. However, the Zheng family is a scholarly family, and face is the most important thing. He is afraid that Brother Zheng will get involved in this kind of thing and affect his career.
Zheng Wangfeng said quietly: "An ignorant village girl would not be so bold, let's go and have a look."
The two of them followed Li Xiuhong.
After Cheng Wanwan came out of Lao Zhao's house, he saw Qian Hui standing at the door of Zhang Lai's house from a distance, and couldn't help but shake his head.
She ignored the matter and turned back to her home. At this time, Zhao Ergou also came back.
With his face glowing red, he took out a paper bag from his backpack: "Sidan, come and see what goodies the second brother has brought for you."
Zhao Sidan didn't care about feeding the chickens and ducks, he rushed over quickly, his eyes suddenly lit up: "It smells so good, it's meatballs!"
"This is the lion's head." Zhao Ergou said, "Do you know how much a bowl of lion's head costs? It's three hundred and fifty yuan, only eight. I licked my face and asked shopkeeper Yang to give me two more. Let's One person for the whole family.”
Zhao Sidan tilted his head: "Second brother, there are nine people in our family. You haven't learned arithmetic well."
Shen Zheng slapped him on the back of the head: "Your sister-in-law still has one in her belly. You heartless little thing. It's in vain that your sister-in-law makes delicious food for you every day."
The lion's head is placed on the table, one for each person, and the meatballs are as big as a baby's fist. They are deep-fried, crispy and tempting, and very delicious.
Zhao Ergou couldn't bear to eat. He felt that eating delicious food together with his family would make him feel happier.
He licked the foam on his lips and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you think it's difficult to make a lion's head?"
Wu Huiniang carefully put the remaining lion head away, planning to save it for dinner. She was getting older and she was always hungry in the middle of the night. Can sleep better.
She put the lion's head in place and then said: "It's not difficult to make, but it requires a lot of oil. I should be able to make it with a similar taste."
"Sister-in-law, why don't we open a restaurant." Zhao Ergou said enthusiastically, "A plate of braised meat can be sold for three hundred cents in a restaurant. If we open our own restaurant, we will make all the money ourselves. , I can definitely earn at least one hundred taels of silver a month."
As soon as he said these words, the boys from the Zhao family were shocked.
Zhao Dashan said blankly: "Earn one hundred taels of silver a month?"
Zhao Sanniu swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Second brother, you are fooling people."
"Zhao Ergou, you are such a fool." Shen Zheng snorted, "Do you want to open a restaurant when you want? A restaurant as big as Zuixian Tower has two floors, and the rent is dozens of taels of silver a month. Please hire at least two chefs, two assistant cooks, and a few waiters. After calculating these costs, I can earn one hundred taels of silver a month. I will take your last name."
"The idea of Ergou is okay." Cheng Wanwan first confirmed Ergou's idea, and then pointed out the practical problems currently faced, "First, we don't have any extra money to buy a shop. Secondly, your sister-in-law has two more She is due to give birth in a month, and she is not suitable to be a cook now. My plan is to save more money in the past few months, buy a shop after the new year, and then open a shop related to food."
The main reason why she bought it instead of renting it was that she wanted to renovate the shop, and renting it was not cost-effective.
This plan was unanimously approved by nine people.
That night, the whole family slept soundly. In the early morning, Cheng Wanwan was woken up by Aunt Wang's loud voice.
"Oh Dashan Niang, something big happened, how can you still sleep? Get up quickly!"
