Xu Linyue, who transmigrated from the 21st century, crossed over with a heaven-defying spatial ability, possessing the body of a five-year-old farm girl. She originally thought of just accepting he...
Seeing Xiao Ling's happy look, Qibao followed its wish and made a simple frame, and framed Xiao Ling's sketch in it. Xiao Ling was very conceited and sat in front of the portrait, praising herself for being so beautiful, which made Qibao laugh and cry.
Half a month passed quietly, and the vegetables in the greenhouse had grown halfway, and they could be picked in about twenty days.
Today, Su Chenyu came to Xu's house specially to tell Qibao a good news. The owner of Yipinxian had been beheaded in public at Caishikou, and Yipinxian was officially under the name of Qibao.
Qibao was shocked and said, "Mr. Su, this won't do. You bought this shop with your own money, how can you put it under my name?" Upon hearing this, the Xu family also felt that they were taking advantage of Su Chenyu and shook their heads to refuse.
Su Chenyu said, "Qibao, Grandpa Xu, don't thank me. This is the money my cousin paid for Qibao. I was just running errands."
Everyone looked at Jing Chen, and Lin said, "Master Jing, you should take back this shop. Our family cannot take it back."
Jing Chen said, "Aunt Lin, you don't have to be polite. This barbecue restaurant is a partnership between Qibao and me. It doesn't matter whose name it is under. Besides, I have always lived in the Xu family. You treat me like your own son. This is also my intention. Please don't refuse."
Qibao felt that this was the most words Jingchen had ever said at one time. During the time they had been together, she had changed her way of addressing him to brother Jingchen. The two of them also often went up the mountain to hunt. Qibao felt that he must have experienced a lot of hardships at such a young age, otherwise he would not be so taciturn. Compared with his brothers, he was really steady and did not seem like a child should be, which made people feel distressed for no reason.
Wang also spoke up, "Jingchen, you were injured because of Qibao. It's our duty to take care of you. We didn't do anything wrong. This gift is too precious."
Jing Chen did not speak, and his stubborn look left others speechless.
Old Master Xu spoke, "Since it is Jingchen's kind gesture, then we will accept it. From now on, we will treat Jingchen like our own child and be nicer to him." The Xu family nodded in agreement.
Qibao said, "Thank you, Brother Jingchen, for the gift you gave me. I like it very much." When Jingchen heard the little girl say that she liked the gift he gave her, he smiled happily.
Zhang said, "When can we open a barbecue restaurant?"
Qibao said, "First of all, we must change the name. Also, the current decoration inside is not suitable for barbecue business. We must change the decoration style."
Su Chenyu asked, "Qibao, have you decided on a new decoration style?"
Qibao said, "Let's think of a name first and make a sign. We'll start by advertising and telling people that Yipinxian has changed owners. Let them remember the name first. I want to go to the shop and take a look, and plan it out."
Everyone thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good name. Qibao said, "How about calling it Iron Triangle BBQ? It just means that our relationship will become better and stronger in the future. How about that?"
Su Chenyu's eyes lit up and said, "Okay, let's use this name. When do we leave for the town?"
Qibao smiled and said, "Let's go now. I can't wait to see my first shop!"
Mr. Xu said, "Then leave the second and third brothers at home, and we'll go together to take a look. This is our Xu family's first industry in the town. Let's see if we can help. The eldest brother can go just in time to pick up the children from school in the evening!" The second and third brothers of the Xu family also wanted to go and take a look, but the family had to be left alone, and they had to supervise the greenhouse, so they agreed.
The group didn't have an ox cart, and Su Chenyu and Jing Chen's carriage happened to be big enough, so they went to the town together in the carriage.
Wang said, "This carriage is different. It's not only stable but also fast. This is my first time riding in a carriage!"
Qibao said, "What's the big deal? If we want to buy a carriage, we can do so. We can afford it." Seeing Qibao's heroic look, everyone laughed.
Grandpa Xu smiled and said, "Look how generous my darling granddaughter is. Grandpa can wait to ride in the carriage bought by Qibao." Qibao patted his chest and made promises, and everyone laughed again.
In the carriage in front, Jing Chen listened to the little girl laughing and chatting in the back, and his mood improved, and his brows softened.
Su Chenyu said, "Cousin, it seems like you're having a great time at the Xu family. How is it? You haven't been this relaxed in the capital, have you? You were always on guard against this and that! But, when are you planning on going back? If you don't go back soon, that person will send someone to take you back!"
Jing Chen's face darkened when he heard this and said, "He has no right to interfere in my affairs!"
Su Chenyu continued, "What about your grandmother?"
Jing Chen was silent for a while and said, "There is still no news about the ginseng. I sent Ye Feng and the others to look for it everywhere, but there is no clue. I will go back after the barbecue restaurant stabilizes, regardless of whether there is any news or not."
When everyone arrived at the door of the restaurant, Qibao took the key from Su Chenyu and opened the door. It was deserted inside, not as crowded as before. Qibao looked around the entire store.
He gathered everyone together and discussed it. "I plan to put the counter at the door, paint the walls of the hall gray on the bottom and white on the top, and also order custom baking trays. All the tables will be replaced. I need a table with a hole in the middle the same size as the iron tray. The baking tray should be lower than the tabletop. The hole in the table should be covered with copper sheets, and a shelf for a small stove should be placed underneath. Then, an insulated space should be created to prevent guests from accidentally getting burned."
Su Chenyu said, "Then let's make the baking tray first, and then make a table according to the size of the baking tray. I will now find someone to move all the things here away and find someone to redecorate it." After saying that, he ordered the secret guard behind him to find someone to solve the problem.
Qibao planned to stay in town for the next two days to finish the decoration of the store. She also had another plan. She planned to graffiti on the wall, drawing some cute Q-version animals or Q-version people from her previous life.
Mr. Xu asked, "It would be a shame to lose these tables and chairs. They are all made of good wood."
Qibao said, "How about this, we give this table to our relatives and villagers, so that it won't be wasted."
Wang said, "That's a good idea. The villagers will definitely be happy."
Su Chenyu said, "I'll have someone deliver it to Xujia Village later. Whoever needs it can move it themselves. This way it saves us the trouble." Now that the matter has been agreed upon, they just have to wait for someone to come and take away the unwanted things.
After a while, the secret guard brought a few people dressed as villagers to move all the tables to several carriages he rented. After filling them up, they set off for Xujia Village.
Qibao said, "I think we'll have to pull it again. Let's go to the kitchen and see if there's anything we need to change."
Everyone came to the backyard and entered the kitchen. Wang said, "This kitchen is really big. It's more than enough for more than a dozen people to work."
Qibao said, "When the time comes, we need to find a few chefs with good knife skills to specialize in slicing meat. The meat slices must be cut into uniform and similar sizes. We also need to find a few women to collect and wash the dishes. We need people to wash and cut vegetables. A kitchen will need more than a dozen people."
