Chapter 380 save money
After that day, there was one less breakfast shop proprietress at the entrance of the escort, and there was a hard-working lady Liu in the team that followed the **** north. Lady Liu was a bold person, long-sleeved and good at dancing. Taking advantage of the escort’s momentum, she quickly took root in the city and opened a new era. A small tea house was established as a base for the **** brothers to travel to and from the city.
Soon after, many brothers in the security guard sent their relatives to Fucheng to be taken care of by Lady Liu. Lady Liu took the women, children, and children and used the recipe she borrowed from Miao Xiucai to set up the first big bowl of rice noodles in Fucheng. shop.
The big bowl of rice noodles is mainly in the low-end market in Fucheng. The taste is unique, and the price is only 20% higher than the market price. It quickly won the hearts of the people of Fucheng, and the customers came like a cloud. Yin Zi, with joy in his heart, remembered Mrs. Liu’s words, kept a low profile, and made a fortune in a low voice.
In order not to be oppressed by the jealousy of their peers, they adopted a method of restricting purchases. They only sold a fixed 200 bowls of rice noodles every day, and the stall was closed at any time. Once the big teapot was placed, it looked like a tea house again. Anyway, there is work to do all day long, and the money comes into the account, but there is no time to rest.
For some reason, it is slowly spread that the big bowl of rice noodles actually has the treasure of the town shop. The real and delicious rice noodles are eight taels of silver per bowl. The production process is extremely complicated and tedious, and the ingredients need to be prepared at least half a month in advance, unless someone Door-to-door customization, paid a deposit, otherwise it is easy to not show people’s words.
Some people actually took money to test it out of curiosity. Now everyone just remembers that the day the rice noodles came out of the pot, the cheap rice noodles that were incomparably fragrant in their mouths on weekdays were a little tasteless, and the whole person’s heart and soul were numb. The rice noodles that were placed in a special food box that could not be seen or touched, but could only be smelled were gone.
Since then, the name of the big bowl of rice noodles has become famous in the whole city. Foreign merchants pass by, and it seems that it will be a great regret in life if you don’t come to taste it.
As for the big bowl of rice noodles and the **** bureau, because of the relationship of mutual dependence, they gradually walked out of the city and moved towards a broader future. Liu Niangzi, who is a big bowl of words on the bright side, has gone through ups and downs along the way, through ups and downs, and thousands of difficulties. In all dangers, stepping on the shoulders of countless people, she eventually became the all-powerful lady Liu in the shopping mall, and everyone was in awe.
I don’t know how she would feel when she remembered today’s decision. Today, Shi Yan led someone to send Mrs. Liu away in a low-key manner. Before Yang Hegao could feel sad, he was urged by Shi Yan: “Quick, Brother Zhou should come out. Gongyuan, it will be too late if you don’t go!”
It was not too late, but the group hurriedly arrived at the gate of Gongyuan, just in time to see Mr. Zhou coming out with a haggard face carrying a test basket.
Why can you find Mr. Zhou among thousands of people at a glance?
Hey, it’s really a sin. When other people left the Gongyuan, a group of people gathered around to greet him. It was very lively. Only Mr. Zhou stood there alone, all alone, so pitiful.
Shi Yan patted Xiaobao and Ayun on the heads, and the two children instantly looked like wolf dogs in the next door’s aunt’s house. They rushed over and shouted, “Uncle Zhou! Xiaobao is here to pick you up!”
“Uncle Zhou, Ayun is here to pick you up!”
Yang Hegao saw that the two were going on a rampage, and all the sadness, sadness, and reluctance disappeared in an instant.
Mr. Zhou was still thinking when he passed by the chief examiner, Xuezheng, when the other party gave him an encouraging and appreciative nod to confirm whether he had understood it wrong, and was suddenly shocked by the voices of the two little guys. Then he saw Shi Yan brought his family to pick him up.
His heart warmed, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. He squatted down and stretched out his arms to hug the two small cannonballs left and right, and he didn’t want the basket, he laughed and walked towards Shi Yan.
At a glance, Shi Yan knew that Mr. Zhou did well in the exam, and he knew what he knew. He took the two children with a smile, pointed to the parking lot of the carriage not far away, and said, “Let’s go, go home first, and I’ll talk about it when I wake up. !”
Yang Hegao picked up Mr. Zhou’s test basket and ran over, just when he heard this, he hurriedly led Mr. Zhou to the carriage that was driving over to his house. There are many carriages coming today, and they were all parked on the side of the road. There are no signs, and the colors and styles are almost the same. If you don’t pay attention, you can’t find it for a while.
A group of people in the car, even a child like A Yun, found that Mr. Zhou today was a little different from the past, and he couldn’t say what was different, and they just kept staring at him curiously.
Mr. Zhou was sitting upright, but when he saw this, he put Ayun on his lap, pinched her little nose, and said with a smile, “What are you looking at?”
After thinking for a while, Ayun gave an answer: “Uncle Zhou is very happy today! It’s great!”
Mr. Zhou was stunned for a moment, then showed a bright smile, and asked Shi Yan, who was sitting across from him, not sure: “Is it obvious?”
Shi Yan smiled without saying a word, and Yang Hegao responded quickly: “Obviously! Just like what was said in the play, high-spirited!”
Isn’t it just high-spirited, how many nine years can a person have to discuss? In the past nine years, how many troubles have you felt, how many toss and turn and sleepless nights?
Today can be regarded as the first step. Even if the result does not come out, Mr. Zhou still feels relieved. Passing this exam, he can clearly see his progress over the years, and he has not wasted time, which makes him feel relieved. A piece of boulder that had been pressing down silently disappeared without a trace.
How can you not make people feel happy?
Obviously, this is not the most pleasant thing for Mr. Zhou. Five days later, the township test was released. He took the top spot and successfully won the title of Jie Yuan this time. It can be said that it is a blockbuster.
For a time, the scenery was the same, and his previous achievements were once again chewed out from the corners and corners. The nine years of obscurity became a painstaking study, the purest and the most filial. He had a rigid relationship with his clansmen, and became a righteous person with principles. Living a poor life, I went to the pot several times without rice, and I became not bowed to the mundane.
There was an endless stream of people who came to visit. At one point, the small yard of Mr. Zhou’s house was crowded with water, and it was even very crazy. Those who fished in troubled waters did not talk about martial arts, and directly climbed over Mr. Zhou’s house, which was not very high. The courtyard wall went straight to Mr. Zhou’s study.
Everyone said in their mouths: “A small gift is not a respect.”
Carrying in his hand, or someone carrying a gift that is definitely not light, he tried every means to go around Mr. Zhou to leave an impression on Mr. Zhou, or to have a plan, or to cast a wide net, his face All with bright and kind smiles.
There are even a few people who are very creative, think what others think, and are anxious about what others are worried about. They directly bring their daughters, nieces, or adopted daughters to the door. Be sure to ask Mr. Zhou, who has been single for 29 years, to accept it for his own sake. Tea pouring water, or sweeping the female red, just give them a bowl of rice to eat.
When he spoke, his face was flushed, he winked, and he almost didn’t say clearly, “I just sent it to warm your bed, you can do whatever you want!”
Mr. Zhou was nauseated when he saw it.
The person next to him regretted it for a while: “Why didn’t I think of this idea? Master Zhou is a bachelor who has been single for twenty-nine years! No matter how good he is, he is still a man!
It’s a man, and there’s something about the bed between men and women. How can he tell someone to give it first? Mistakes Mistakes! ”
Those who sent concubines and nieces here knew how to be embarrassed, and spoke in a somewhat subtle manner. Those who bought a Qing courtier directly from the brothel and took them home as their adopted daughters really didn’t take their adopted daughters as human beings. There are many cases where adopted daughters are stuffed into Mr. Zhou’s bedroom.
After a while, there was a conflict in the bedroom because of the appearance of several adopted daughters who went to “make the bed and fold the quilt”. It was so lively that the lawsuit was even brought in front of Mr. Zhou.
In the face of the women who were crying and wooing people with their eyes, Mr. Zhou felt exhausted, but others felt that it would be a good story in the future. It is the dream of countless men for a few women to compete for a man. what.
Someone persuaded him: “If Master Zhou fulfilled these infatuated women, wouldn’t it be beautiful to accompany them with red sleeves in the future!”
After listening to Mr. Zhou, he couldn’t sit still, and the stiff smile he had managed to maintain on his face disappeared. Just when he wanted to risk offending others, Shi Yan showed up with a few children.
Suddenly, two three or four-year-old children climbed up on Mr. Zhou’s legs. When they finally sat in Mr. Zhou’s arms and said pleasant things, the style of painting was completely changed.
In front of the two children, no matter how big your heart is, you can’t say anything about a man or a woman. The weeping adopted daughters were very discerning and put away their tears, silently withdrew from the crowd.
Outside the yard, Yang Hegao and Uncle Liu greeted the restaurant staff they brought to set up tables, chairs, benches, and food and drinks. Shi Yan smiled at the crowd around Mr. Zhou, who was chaotically saying, “I’m late, everyone, please forgive me. Brother Zhou specially asked to go down to the restaurant to invite you to come back to entertain you.
If there is a poor reception, please forgive me, please! ”
Now is obviously not a good time to talk. Everyone dispersed in a hurry and went out to dinner, with Yang Hegao and Liu Bo entertaining them, and a few restaurant guys supporting them, so it was finally less chaotic.
Shi Yan just whispered to Mr. Zhou: “I guess you are alone here, and you didn’t prepare in advance, so hurry up and hurry up, you can be regarded as catching up.”
Mr. Zhou is naturally grateful, but according to the relationship between the two of them, needless to say too much, one look is enough.
Shi Yan said again: “I asked someone to ask the clan elders to help.”
Mr. Zhou was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t blame Shi Yan for making his own decisions, but asked with his eyes.
Shi Yan sighed in his heart, Mr. Zhou is indeed talented in reading, but he didn’t really enter the official career, so he thought less, so he simply mentioned a few words: “If you really want to take a step forward, you can’t. There are worries, you unilaterally cut off contact with the clan, but outsiders don’t know, and they don’t believe it.
It is impossible for people to come from nowhere, and in the future, the Zhou family will act under your name, but you will not know it at all…”
When Shi Yan stopped, Mr. Zhou immediately thought of his intention: “Brother Xu is saying that even if I don’t reconcile with the clan, at least I will win some clan people for my use. First, someone can help me manage the clan people. Don’t mess around, and secondly, even if someone messes up, someone will give me a tip and let me be prepared.
In any case, it’s better than knowing nothing. ”
Shi Yan nodded, but what he didn’t say was that the clan at this time was a natural bond, and Mr. Zhou was stubborn, and he didn’t want to have too many interests involved, but after a long time, he would naturally find that the clan used it well. The effect is as good as he can’t imagine now, and it depends on how to operate.
While speaking, there were already several elderly voices from outside, who were greeting the people who came here today. Although they did not say any particularly pleasant words, the sincerity and simplicity of the elderly man’s words inside and outside made it easy for him to speak. Make it difficult for people who want to say something outrageously.
On the banquet, Yang Hegao and Uncle Liu couldn’t hold back the restlessness. After the arrival of several old people, they finally returned to calm. For a while, it was all the sound of pushing cups and changing cups, and the scene was harmonious.
It was the Zhou family who came.
Mr. Zhou got up and whispered to Shi Yan before going out: “You are right, it is impossible to live as a single husband in this world, these people are so unruly today, their name is Hexi, but in fact they are persecuted, not just relying on my family. With no one in the middle, no clan behind him, and no one to help, do you dare to be unscrupulous?
No, it stopped when the clan came forward. But I can’t offend people all at once. ”
Shi Yan waved his hand: “If you want to understand it, just go!”
Mr. Zhou really wanted to understand. Things that he didn’t want to understand in the past ten years or so have been understood in an instant. World affairs are not black and white, and they cannot develop as he thought.
Compromise is a principle he just learned.
He compromises with the clan, he compromises with the world outside the scientific examination, and there may be more things that require him to compromise in the future. As long as he does not step on the bottom line of his principles, he does not know how many compromises will be waiting for him in the future.
Shi Yan noticed that Mr. Zhou’s eyes changed instantly. He seemed to be looking at a three-good student who was severely beaten by society and taught to be a good person. This kind of person is smart and knows everything. As long as the hurdle in his heart is overcome, the difficulties in front of him will no longer be present. is difficult.
So he heard Mr. Zhou say to an elderly clan elder in a no-man’s corner: “I heard that the grandson of the third grandfather’s family is smart and clever. If the third grandfather is willing, how about letting him be a book boy for Sihong for a few years?”
What else could it be? Excited of course! Who doesn’t understand the truth of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade? Being slaughtered by a concierge and a seventh-rank official, it is better to follow a master to gain knowledge than to stay in the village for a lifetime. The third grandpa understands the truth!
How did the two discuss after that, and how did Mr. Zhou improve their relationship with the clan? But Shi Yan was no longer worried. Looking at the prosperous scene outside, he hid his merit and fame deeply, and when he changed the cup, he seemed to see Zhou. Mr. has a turbulent life.
Just as he was sighing, Yang Hegao got out of nowhere, leaned in front of him, winked and said, “Sir, one day in the future, if you are in high school, our family will definitely be ten times more lively than this, and you won’t have to go out at that time. With a single effort, He Gao will give you the scenery and scenery!”
Shi Yan slapped the boy angrily, because he still hadn’t figured out the current situation. At the beginning, he told him his intention to find Mr. Mei, just to find a reliable Mr. Ayun. He never thought about putting such a big leg there, so what’s the point of letting A Yun, who can’t be counted on, hug him instead of hugging him?
Seeing this kid looking at Mr. Zhou’s scenery, his eyes were full of unrealistic fantasies, Shi Yan told him cruelly, “Remember why we dealt with rumors like that a few days ago?”
Yang Hegao is naturally clear: “In order not to let the rumors involve Mr. Zhou, it will ruin his reputation.”
Shi Yan looked at the lively scene with his hands behind his back, his voice was clear and cold, and he couldn’t hear any emotions, and continued: “What do you want to be famous for?”
Yang Hegao didn’t even think about it and said, “Sir said, a good reputation is the greatest weapon to protect yourself for a person who is in the Vanity Fair and has nothing.
Once there is a black history, it is the biggest handle left for the enemy to deal with himself! Once someone takes hold of the handle, a person has no self! ”
Yang Hegao said eagerly: “Sir, I understand the truth, just like Xiaobao stole two pieces of candy and was discovered by Ayun. In order not to let you know, Xiaobao had to give all his five-day candy to Ayun. It’s the same, but what does this have to do with you?”
Shi Yan sighed, thinking that this is definitely because the fan filter is too thick, right?
So he pointed directly at the crowd outside and said, “Why don’t you go and ask them now, what did you and I do in the past?”
A local ruffian who has nothing to do, the word “human hatred and dog hatred” is specially tailored for him. He has no courage to bully men and women on the street. It’s okay, it’s okay to let this thing go in troubled times, the rituals are broken and the music is broken. Putting it in the court now, it is definitely to provide information to the censors, and they can be self-sufficient.
It is impossible for a person who has a personal moral loss to rise in this life. On the contrary, every time there is a little trouble, he will be frightened.
What’s the fun in?
Yang Hegao was choked by Shi Yan. He occasionally heard He Da’s drunken talk, saying that his husband used to hang out with them on the street, and he did a lot of stealing. People were afraid and tired of them when they saw them. It’s beautiful.
But he thought it was all just bragging!
When he met his husband, he was already Master Tong Sheng, a well-known figure in Bai’an County. When everyone mentioned his husband, the most talked about was that the prodigal son turned back, changed his mind, reformed his past mistakes, repented, found his way back, and even returned. Some people say that the husband has spent the first half of his life in hiding and is a man of prudence. According to his understanding of the husband, he is actually more inclined to the second type.
It never occurred to me that even if those things did not come from the husband’s original intention, it was indeed done by the husband.
Yang Hegao was so stunned by Shi Yan that he realized that he was still too naive before. When he consciously became a beggar, he was used to seeing the warmth and affection of human beings, and he understood most of the world’s truths. But he thought he understood.
Shi Yan saw that he seemed to be caught in some kind of thought and couldn’t get out for a while, and he didn’t bother to help Mr. Zhou entertain the guests.
After just a while, Mr. Zhou began to adapt to his identity as a master, and he consciously replaced his words and deeds, respecting what he should be respectful, and being kind, neither humble nor arrogant. Really calm down.
When Shi Yan saw this, he still thought about going home and preparing for this brother who was like a mother who had broken his heart for him. He didn’t want to waste his precious time with these people. meaningless communication.
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, but in the effort to participate in the Luming Banquet, Mr. Zhou’s character and literary talent were valued by the Xuezheng adults. After the banquet, Mr. Zhou left Mr. Zhou with confidence, and then patted Mr. Zhou on the shoulder, asking for Mr. Zhou and him niece as a matchmaker.
Although this niece is a concubine, being able to have a relationship with the academic government is indeed a high level for Mr. Zhou. The news spread, and a jealous pink eye attacked for a while.
When Shi Yan heard about it, he could only sigh: “We don’t need to prepare for the entanglement in Beijing, which is a savings.”
