Su Li transmigrated to ancient times, becoming the youngest daughter in a military household at the very bottom of society. Her father and brothers were constantly busy garrisoning the border and c...
Chapter 107 Chapter 107 The next day, quickly...
The next day, it was almost time for dinner, and the county school
"Brother Cui, Brother Qian, let's go to the Su Ji restaurant where we went yesterday to eat." Deng Che turned sideways and looked at the people behind him while the teacher was away.
Cui Yu put down the "University" in his hand and blurted out without thinking, "Okay."
Deng Che, "What about you, Brother Qian, Brother Song, and Brother Li?"
Qian Cai, "Okay."
"no problem."
"So can I."
In this way, the three of them happily reached an agreement. During the conversation, they also discussed the taste of yesterday's meal, their personal preferences, and what to order for lunch today. The three of them were chatting enthusiastically, and the teacher who was passing by in the yard outside at a distance could not help but nodded when he saw them.
Although the students in Class B are not as smart as those in Class A, they are even more diligent. Unlike those mediocre students in Class C and Class D, they either doze off in class or eat secretly. How shameful!
But speaking of food, Teacher Wu remembered that Master Shen had just invited him to a newly opened restaurant on Kangping Street for dinner. He guessed that it was almost time, so he had to hurry over.
In this case, Teacher Wu did not stop to look inside, but left in a hurry.
Over here, after Cui Yu, Qian Cai, and the others had finally decided what to eat, a sneer suddenly rang out from behind them. "It's just a family restaurant. How can it be so delicious? You look so worldly-wise."
The man who spoke was named Zong Yongan. His family ran a money shop, and he and Cui Yu had been sworn enemies since childhood. Although the two families had a good relationship, Zong Yongan hated Cui Yu very much. Therefore, after the Cui family's business failed, he took advantage of the fact that the county magistrate was his uncle and often ridiculed Cui Yu and others.
"Come on, Wang Chang, Gu Liu, today I'm taking you to Xiang Man Lou to see the world, so that you won't end up like them and lose face for me."
After saying this, Zong Yongan gave them a provocative look.
When Qian Cai and others heard this, their faces changed instantly, but they were all ordinary people, and since ancient times, people have not fought against officials, so they dared to be angry but not speak out.
Only Cui Yu wasn't afraid of Zong Yongan, and he immediately retorted, "Who can be as generous as Young Master Zong, spending a fortune on that girl from Zuifeng Pavilion? I wonder what your wife would think if she knew..."
“You…!” Zong Yongan stretched out his five thick fingers, then put them down. His expression changed as if he was running a dye factory, but in the end he didn’t say another word.
Because he knew that his mother loved this pretty boy the most, especially after the Cui family suffered misfortune, she felt even more distressed and sympathetic towards him, and even said that she wanted to adopt him as her adopted son. She might call Cui Yu over one day, and then Cui Yu would tell her about his affairs and everything would be over.
A good man will not suffer a loss in front of him. As the Master said, there is no need for a beautiful jade to collide with a tile. He is the beautiful jade now, and Cui Yu is the rotten stone.
After comforting himself in this way, Zong Yongan felt much better. Then he thought that Cui Yu could only afford to eat at the street restaurants, while he had endless amounts of fine wine, delicious food and beautiful women to enjoy, and he felt even more at ease.
"I'm too lazy to tell you, you're just jealous of me."
Jealous? Cui Yu was bewildered. He? Jealous of him?
Are you jealous of his ugliness? Are you jealous of his lack of knowledge, his constant rank in exams, and his ability to stay in the county school only through connections? Or are you jealous of him being taken advantage of? He doesn't even realize he's being cheated?
Cui Yu really didn't understand this guy's train of thought, but it didn't matter. He had been like this for a long time, since he was a child, and he was used to it.
Let’s put all that aside and think about something happy, like the gong ringing for the end of school, and it’s time to go eat!!!
When Cui Yu, Qian Cai and others arrived at Su Ji Food Shop, many people were already sitting in the shop, but fortunately they arrived quickly and got a seat facing the street.
The weather was nice today, the wind wasn't too strong, but it was still a little chilly. The three of them ordered their food, which arrived soon. Eating the hot meal, they didn't feel cold at all.
"Master Zong, look, isn't that Cui Yu and the others?"
As the saying goes, enemies often meet on a narrow road. Zong Yongan was also on his way to eat and met him on the road.
Another person responded, "Yes, that's them."
"Is this the restaurant they're talking about? It's quite crowded!"
The little follower Gu Liu looked at the crowded restaurant not far away and sighed, but he changed his words the next second.
"It really doesn't look that good!"
Wang Chang next to him also agreed, "Yeah, it doesn't taste good at all. It's nothing compared to Xiang Man Lou. Only poor scholars like Cui Yu would eat there."
He knew what Zong Yongan liked to hear, so he specifically chose to say something nice.
However, Zong Yongan was very unhappy when he heard this. After all, there were many people in the food store, so the food must be good. But then he thought again, good taste does not mean it will be as delicious as Xiangmanlou.
"You're right." Ignoring the mouth-watering aroma of food in the air, Zong Yongan waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go eat in Xiangmanlou."
Then the three of them strode away.
Cui Yu and his companions paid no attention to them. Their entire attention was focused on the food in front of them. They hadn't ordered any braised dishes yesterday, so today they'd specifically ordered a portion of braised pork intestines and braised pork. The more they ate, the more they felt like something was missing. After some discussion, they decided to have a drink each. However, when they stood up to get some wine, they saw Teacher Wu and Master Shen...
Cui Yu was so frightened that he lost two souls.
Su Li: "Student Cui, what do you want?"
Cui Yu glanced at the instructor and teacher sitting two steps away on the right with an erratic look, and stammered with a smile, "No, nothing. Is there any hot water? I'm a little thirsty."
"Yes, Mr. Cui, please wait a moment. I will bring it to you."
"good…"
Cui Yu finished speaking, turned around and ran away. When he returned outside, several people saw that he came back empty-handed and were puzzled. "Brother Cui, didn't you go to get some wine? Where's the wine?"
"Shh!!!" Cui Yu hurriedly stopped Deng Che from talking, winking at him.
"The instructor and the master are inside!"
"What?!"
"Is the Master here?"
It's over, it's over. The four of them felt as if cold water was poured over their heads and their faces turned pale. You know, the county school has an order that students are not allowed to drink alcohol. If they are discovered, they will be scolded and sent to clean the toilet at the very least, and expelled from the county school at the worst... None of these are things they want to face.
One of them even stuttered, "This, this, this, you you you..."
Fortunately, Cui Yu didn't want to scare them, so he quickly said,
"Don't worry, I haven't told you yet."
fortunately……
Several people breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, Chen brought some hot soup. They took a sip and their faces instantly regained their color.
But it was also at this time that a few people unexpectedly discovered that the soup was quite delicious.
"This winter melon soup is quite delicious."
"Yeah, that's great."
How could it not taste good? Su Li cooked this soup with big bones, thinking that the guests could drink it if they were thirsty after eating. After all, not everyone likes to drink. Besides, drinking a bowl of hot soup in cold weather is comfortable and nourishing to the stomach, which is also a way to maintain customer base.
"Wu Ya, I'm here. You can go in and have a rest first." Chen said to Su Li beside her while collecting the money.
"Yes, Wu Ya, go and have dinner. We can handle it." Mrs. Mo also said.
Su Li nodded when she heard that. She had originally come to the front to help because she was afraid that her mother and Aunt Mo might have some unexpected situations that they couldn't handle. Now that the two of them were slowly getting back on track, she could finally take a break.
Back in the backyard, except for Su Tao and Su Hong who went to the dock to sell food, Mrs. Lu and her grandmother were still washing dishes in the yard. When they saw Su Li come in, they urged her to eat.
The shop is busy now and there is no time to wait for everyone to gather, so everyone takes the time to eat a few bites. Fortunately, the food is ready, which is convenient.
Su Li was really hungry after being so busy. She filled a big bowl with rice and a lot of meat. While eating, she asked Grandma Wu, "Grandma, have you eaten yet?"
Mrs. Wu put the washed bowl aside and said, "Not yet. Let's wait for your grandfather to come back and eat together."
Old Man Su sent Su Hong and the others away and hasn't come back yet. Guessing that time is almost up, Su Li didn't say anything.
However, Su Li looked around and suddenly said, "By the way, grandma, where is Aunt Lian?" Why couldn't she see her?
"I'm playing with the kid next door who I just met."
It’s like this…
Su Li knew that her niece Lian Gu made two good friends as soon as she arrived.
Well, it’s good to know a few more friends. They are close to each other and can keep an eye on you at any time, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
What's more, Madam Ruan from the rouge shop next door is a really nice person. She takes care of two children alone, and is able to run the shop and raise the children so well. Like Aunt Shen, she is a great person. Su Li admires her from the bottom of her heart and is willing to associate with such people.
Since Aunt Lian was fine, Su Li continued to eat. After dinner, she went outside to have dinner with her mother Chen and Aunt Mo.
We were busy until the afternoon. It is worth mentioning that at noon, the constable from yesterday came to book a banquet a few days later, saying that it was to hold a full-moon banquet for his son.
The constable negotiated the price with Su Li, agreed on the dishes for that day, and paid the deposit before leaving.
This is really great news. People have booked tables right after the opening. How can I not be happy?
When Su Li told her mother Chen and the others about it, they were also happy.
It’s good to take over banquets. You don’t have to worry about making too much food and not being able to sell it, nor do you have to worry about making too little food and not being able to sell it. Su Li loves taking over banquets the most.
But as the old saying goes, when some are happy, others are sad.
After Constable Fang returned home and told his wife, who was breastfeeding in bed, that he had booked a meal at Su Ji Restaurant, his wife, Mrs. Huang, became unhappy immediately.
"Didn't we agree to hold the full moon banquet at Xiangmanlou?" Huang looked at her husband Fang Da, wondering why he suddenly changed his mind.
Fang Da waved his hand nonchalantly, "The food at Xiang Man Lou is just average and expensive. This restaurant is good, you'll know once you try it."
Huang thought her husband was just being too expensive, making a deliberate excuse. After all, everyone knew that the best restaurant in the county was Xiang Man Lou, and the worst was Yao Yue Lou. Which other restaurant could possibly surpass them? Thinking this way, Huang didn't dare to say anything about her husband's decision.
But I still feel a little aggrieved and disappointed.
Originally, she had thought that this full moon banquet could be held in a big restaurant, so that she could save face in front of her former relatives and feel proud of herself. However, she never expected it to turn out like this. Now, she should be thankful that she didn't embarrass herself.
…
Huang's depressed mood continued until the fifth day of the first lunar month, the day her son turned one month old.
"Madam, this is the food store I told you about. What do you think?" Fang Da said to Huang beside him, holding his son.
Huang's face stiffened for a moment, and she forced a smile, "Very good."

"Traveling back to the ancient times and the daily life of the whole family in pioneering wasteland"
Wilderness survival blogger He Sheng traveled through time and became the eldest daughter of a farmer's family in a remote mountainous area in ancient times. It was the end of the world, and there was chaos and war outside. People were living in misery, and the war was about to reach them. He Sheng waved her hand, took her younger brothers and sisters, and persuaded the whole family to go into the mountains together.
The mountains are great, with abundant resources that are inexhaustible. The only drawback is that wild beasts are rampant. He Sheng led his tribe to build tree houses, make weapons, and grow crops, and they managed to find a way to survive in desperate situations.
Song Bo looked back at the small village behind him, with a dead silence in his eyes. Going into the mountains means death, and not going into the mountains also means death. There are jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, but so are the world. Why not listen to Sheng Niang's advice and go into the mountains to find a way out?
Later, when the conflict ended and a new dynasty was established, a woodcutter who went into the mountains to chop wood got lost and stumbled into a Peach Blossom Spring. Upon closer inquiry, he learned that the people there had been isolated and inhabited there for over a hundred years.
Ps: The heroine and her tribe lived in the mountains all their lives until their death, and they truly created their own paradise with their own hands.
