Just after lunch time, the carriage swayed to a stop outside the Cyclamen Gate.
In the restaurant, Qin Lian saw the familiar carriage and rushed out on the spot, "Liu Ye! You're back!"
Su Liuye opened the door curtain, and the next second, Qin Lian rushed up and hugged her, "What's the matter with you? Why did you go back for so long this time? I thought you weren't coming back!"
After all, Qinghe Village was still far away from the county seat, and Qin Lian was not close to anyone in the village. So, Su Liuye disappeared for such a period of time, and she had nowhere to find out the news.
If Su Liuye hadn't come back today, she would have gone back to the village to inquire about it herself.
Seeing that she knew nothing about what happened two days ago, Su Liuye didn't intend to say anything more. He just smiled and patted her back, "I went home, not somewhere else. Besides, there is Chu." Yanzai, what can happen to me?"
Qin Lian immediately snorted, "What are you talking about! If it weren't for Chu Yan's presence, I would have gone back to catch you myself!"
"What? Can't you handle things in the restaurant?"
"That's not true," Qin Lian shook her head, "During this period, the restaurant has been quite stable."
"If you have a good relationship, you must be making a lot of money. I'll go check the accounts in person later."
"Okay! By the way, where are Dabao and Erbao?"
Qin Lian didn't regard herself as an outsider at all. She lifted the curtain and looked inside.
At this moment, Wu Xiang raised her head softly and smiled at Qin Lian, "Hello."
With a "swish" sound, Qin Lian suddenly let go, closed the curtain again, and looked at Su Liuye dumbfounded, "This is...
Su Liuye coughed lightly, "A distant relative, I've been in some trouble recently..."
Before she could finish speaking, Qin Lian's eyes widened, "Don't tell me, you want her to stay in the restaurant?
"What do you mean? You don't want to?"
"Of course not..." Qin Lian raised her voice when she was excited. Then she thought of the important person in the car and hurriedly lowered her voice, "Are you crazy, A Liu? For such a young lady, even if you stay What can she do?"
Qin Lian frowned even more as she thought about Wu Xiang's delicate appearance just now.
When a young lady like this enters a restaurant, she can't be allowed to serve tea and water, but if she does anything else, I'm afraid she won't be able to do anything.
When she thought of this, Qin Lian became worried and her brows knitted into knots.
Su Liuye was amused by her appearance, "I'm just kidding you, there are still people at home, just stay here for today, and they will go back soon."
"That's pretty much it!" Qin Lian held her chest, looking like she was surviving the disaster, "Then I'll entertain you!"
With that said, Qin Lian walked towards the carriage again.
At the critical moment, Su Liuye reached out in time and pulled the person back, "You don't have to worry about this person. I'll just entertain him. Lianlian, I have a more important thing right now that I need you to do."
"What?"
"She is from Anwu Town next door. You should hurry up and go over there to find out. Her name is Wu Xiang."
After all, they are friends and sisters for many years. As soon as Su Liuye said these words, Qin Lian immediately understood, "I understand, leave this matter to me!"
"Well, within an hour, the sooner you can come back, the better!"
After all, not only Qin Lian didn't like Wu Xiang's appearance, she also frowned after seeing it too much.
Two hours passed with a little patience.
Fortunately, this time, Qin Lian didn't say much. She just gave her a gesture, then turned around and ran away into the distance.
Su Liuye then turned around and shouted to the car, "Come on down, the restaurant is here!"
As he spoke, Su Liuye turned around and entered the restaurant, waving to Liu Sheng from a distance, "Liu Sheng, go arrange the kitchen and arrange some food in the fourth floor room."
Looking back and seeing Su Liuye, Liu Sheng's eyes lit up and he immediately came over, "Hey! The shopkeeper is back? Did he bring someone with him?"
"Well, a distant relative, please prepare more dishes that the girls like to eat, and some snacks, and take them back when she finishes eating."
After giving the instructions, Liu Sheng immediately noticed something was wrong, "Relatives? It won't be like last time, right?"
After being reminded like this, Su Liuye also thought of Tang Hongyan and immediately shook her head, "This time is different, you just have to entertain him."
"Okay! Then I'll make arrangements!"
Su Liuye said so, and he had nothing to say, so he turned around and entered the kitchen.
At this time, Granny Duan and Wu Xiang also got out of the car with their children.
Hearing Su Liuye's instructions from afar, Wu Xiang's face turned red again, "Don't bother me too much, cousin."
"It doesn't matter. There's not much else in my place but there's plenty of food. You see what you want to eat. If it's not enough, just add more."
"It's really not necessary," Wu Xiang shook his head again, "That's enough."
"Then, let's go up and sit for a while?"
"Sorry for bothering you, cousin!"
As he spoke, Wu Xiang gently bent down and saluted, and Su Liuye hurriedly reached out to support her, "We are all our own people, you don't need to be so polite to me!"
…
He took Wu Xiang upstairs alone and chatted for a few more words. Seeing that the time was almost up, Su Liuye took the time to go downstairs and found Liu Sheng again.
"Is Lianlian back?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there were footsteps outside the door. Qin Lian ran back panting, with a solemn look on her face, "A Liu, I've already asked you what you want me to ask about!"
"How to say?"
"What Wu Xiang said is true. Her father has been seriously ill for a long time, and the situation is about to get worse!"
"What about their family's relationship with other people? Are there any rumors?"
"That's not true," Qin Lian shook her head, "It's just that the head of the Wu family's illness has been delayed for too long. It is said that the Wu family borrowed a lot of money, but no one said much else..."
After all, it was birth, old age, illness and death. Su Liuye nodded to express his understanding.
After standing there and thinking for a moment, she walked to the counter and knocked on the table lightly, "Ning Ning, give me ten taels of silver.
"Ten taels?" Guo Ning raised his head from the counter, extremely surprised, "Why do you suddenly need so many?"
After pondering for a moment, Su Liuye didn't say that much, just coughed lightly, "This has nothing to do with the restaurant, you write it down in the account first, and I will make it up later."
"This... works!"
Guo Ning's hands and feet were quick, and in just a moment, two ingots of gold were sealed and brought up, "Shopkeeper, you want the silver!"
"Okay, hard work."
Su Liuye responded casually, picked up the silver and went upstairs.
At this time, Liu Sheng also brought the food and introduced Wu Xiang one by one.
"Miss Cousin, this sweet and sour carp is a famous specialty in our store. Not only does it not have the fishy smell of regular carp, it is also sweet and sour when eaten, with a unique flavor..."
Wu Xiang picked up the chopsticks, gently took a piece and put it into his mouth, then nodded reservedly, "It's indeed good. My cousin's restaurant is indeed well-deserved!"
