Ji Mingyuan looked at the shocked Chen Ruxue and chuckled, "It's not really an investigation, I just spent some money and asked some random people.
That good-for-nothing old man is not worth my trouble to investigate."
"Shut up right there! Who do you think you are to criticize others so recklessly?
Get out of the way, or don't blame me for being rude." For some reason, Chen Ruxue particularly disliked hearing bad things about Ye Haonan from other people.
Ji Mingyuan is not a practical person. He stood in front of Chen Ruxue and refused to let her leave.
Chen Ruxue was furious, "You forced me to do this!" After saying that, she exerted force with her arms and threw Ji Mingyuan over her shoulder!
Then, he squatted down again and patted Ji Mingyuan's face with his hand. "I'm telling you, stay away from me in the future. For the sake of your cousin Han Yangyang, I'll let you go today. In the future, if you dare to pester me again, I'll break your legs."
Chen Ruxue walked away without even looking at Ji Mingyuan.
Ji Mingyuan just lay on the ground, silently watching the people walk away, and slowly grinned.
This woman is cruel enough, he likes her!
As soon as Chen Ruxue walked out of the school gate, she completely forgot about Ji Mingyuan!
In the evening, after dinner, Ye's mother deliberately kept her son and daughter-in-law and talked about the delicatessen that was about to open.
"Xiaoxue, look, the delicatessen will officially open the day after tomorrow. Let's talk about how to distribute the shop's income in the future.
Xiaoxue, your father and I have discussed this and we have decided to give you 30% of the delicatessen's revenue. After all, we are occupying your house, and it was you who came up with the idea of opening the delicatessen.
Your father and I will take 50%, and the remaining 20% will be divided equally among my grandchildren."
"Mom, I didn't do anything. I just sold a house and talked a lot. What you gave me is too much. I can't accept it." Chen Ruxue refused again and again.
Before Chen Ruxue could continue, Ye's mother interrupted her, "Xiaoxue, listen to me.
Your father and I considered this share for a long time before deciding to give you this share.
You see, since your father and I came to Beijing, we have been eating your food, drinking your drinks, and living your life. It has never cost us a penny.
Even if we babysat for you, it would be nothing compared to this.
Besides, you have been giving me and your father pocket money and clothes every three or four o'clock, and I have seen all of it, as well as the things you mailed back to your sister Qingqing, your elder brother and his wife, and your second uncle and your grandmother.
Not to mention the milk powder, clothes, toys, etc. you prepared for your older and younger children.
Mother knows you have a kind heart, but kindness is not a reason for our family to take advantage of you, so I discussed with your father to give you 30%. Compared to what you have given away, 30% is really not much."
"Mom, how can you calculate like that?
As a daughter-in-law, what I give to you and my father is pure filial piety.
As for what I gave to Qingqing and my eldest brother’s family, that was for the younger generations.
My second uncle's family and my grandmother's family are purely concerned about my grandmother.
As for Dabao and Xiaobao, I gave them to them voluntarily because they were so cute."
Mother Ye waved her hand and said, "No matter what you say, this matter is settled."
"No, Mom, I didn't agree!"
"Mom, Xiaoxue, I actually have an idea." Ye Haonan interrupted Ye's mother and Chen Ruxue. Seeing them looking at him, he continued, "Mom can change the 30% for Xiaoxue to 20%, and give the extra 10% to the children. What do you think of this division?"
"That's great, I think it's suitable!" Chen Ruxue was the first to respond.
Seeing this, Ye's mother didn't know what to say and could only nod to show her approval.
"Mom, the house is almost finished. When do you plan to officially open it?" Chen Ruxue quickly changed the subject.
“I plan to start preparations tomorrow and officially open the day after tomorrow.
These days, I asked your father and the third brother to move all the necessary things there.
From now on, I will prepare all the things I want to sell there every day and then come back.
Your father is responsible for taking care of the children at home, and the third child is responsible for looking after the store."
Chen Ruxue agreed with Ye's mother's arrangement. However, when she thought about the four children in the family, she suddenly had an idea. She felt that she needed to find someone else to help Ye's mother look after the children.
It is not easy to find such people these days. Even if you want to find one, you cannot openly say that you hired them with money, and you have to tell outsiders that they are relatives or friends of yours.
Of course, this is just Chen Ruxue's initial plan. It is not so easy to find someone, so she has to search slowly.
On the first day of opening, early in the morning, Chen Ruxue watched her four children, Ye's mother and father, Ye Haonan and Ye Haobai, and they all started to get busy.
Ye's father and Ye Haonan were responsible for buying ingredients and firecrackers, candies and other things needed for the opening day, mainly to make it lively and auspicious. Ye Haobai and Ye's mother waited in the store, cleaning and making preparations.
That day, Ye's mother was busy until midnight before returning home.
On the opening day, Ye's father and mother took their grandson Dabao, Chen Ruxue, Ye Haonan and Ye Haobai each held a child, and the group went to the delicatessen in a mighty procession.
When they got there, in order to prevent any accidents from happening to the child, Chen Ruxue stayed in the yard to look after the child, Ye Haonan was busy setting off firecrackers and scattering candy outside, and Ye's father and mother were responsible for attracting business.
The sound of firecrackers attracted the attention of many people around, and people stopped to look.
"Fellow villagers passing by, please come and see, Ye's Delicatessen is officially open.
The shop sells a variety of braised products, including pig heads, pig intestines, braised eggs, braised tofu skin, braised chicken feet, and braised duck wings.
People are curious, and when they see this, of course they want to go and take a look.
So, one after another, people went into the delicatessen to see what was going on.
As soon as everyone entered the store, they were attracted by the delicious food inside and started asking all kinds of questions.
Then it’s all about shopping.
Most of the buyers were old customers who had eaten the braised pork offal before. Based on their trust in Ye’s mother’s cooking skills, they thought the new dishes should not be bad either.
Some people just follow the trend and buy things when they see others buying them.
Soon, the crowds gradually dispersed and the crowded shop returned to a certain calm.
However, calmness is relative, and overall it is pretty good.
After a busy day, it was soon noon.
The family did not go home. They simply steamed some rice and cooked some soft noodles for the children. They had a delicious meal with the cooked food in the store.
"Haha! I have to say, these spicy chicken feet and spicy duck necks are really delicious. And these spicy wood ear mushrooms, mixed with a big mouthful of white rice, are really satisfying!" Father Ye couldn't help but mutter as he ate.
