Chapter 446 Retribution is coming
The children were extremely tired, so Lin Xia wanted to reward them and took them to a newly opened restaurant, an authentic Sichuan restaurant.
A Sichuan restaurant stands out among the light Cantonese restaurants.
As soon as she entered the restaurant, she could smell the strong spicy aroma, and Lin Xia immediately felt her appetite coming.
"Order whatever you want to eat." Lin Xia handed the menu to the children.
The children put their heads together and whispered to each other. It was obvious that they usually discussed the same thing when they were having dinner.
"Mom, I want to eat Fuqi Feipian!" Lele was curious about this dish. It couldn't be made by humans, right?
"I want to eat ants and climb trees."
"I want Bobo Chicken!"
As soon as she heard what they ordered, Lin Xia knew that these kids ordered the dishes based on the strange names.
Lin Xia smiled and said to the waiter, "Just these few dishes, plus some mao xu wang, mapo tofu, and twice-cooked pork."
The waiter wrote it down, and seeing that she actually listened to the child's order, he began to grumble to himself.
Da Jun's hometown is in the northwest. He grew up on an island and has never eaten spicy food.
An An and the others also grew up on an island. Fortunately, Lin Xia likes strong flavors, so they all grew up eating spicy food.
When the dishes came up one after another, the children curiously observed the dishes they had ordered. When they saw that they were not made of ants, they looked a little disappointed.
Lin Xia ate and drank contentedly while watching the disappointed expressions of the others.
Normally she wouldn't dare eat like this, after all, she's almost 30 and her metabolism isn't as good as when she was young. But today she'd consumed too much and needed to replenish energy, so she ate as much as she could.
Although it was not made with ginger and did not contain real ants, it did not stop the children from enjoying it.
However, after all, they had no experience with spicy food, so by the end, their lips looked like they were covered with lipstick. If you look closely, Lele's mouth was slightly swollen from the spiciness.
"If it's too spicy, rinse it with clean water." Lin Xia was worried that the food might be too spicy, so she tried to persuade them.
Lele's bright red lips looked like she had put on makeup. She was already good-looking, but now she looked more like a pretty boy with red lips and white teeth. When she heard what Lin Xia said, she shook her head unconvincedly: "It tastes good this way!"
After saying that, he covered his head and started eating again.
When Lin Xia was 70% full, she watched the children eat. They were all half-grown children and at the age when they could eat, so they ordered seven or eight dishes and finished them all, including three large bowls of rice.
If the country hadn't been opened up now, Lin Xia estimated that with the way they ate, the family's food coupons would have been used up in half a month.
After eating and drinking, Lin Xia stood at the door of the restaurant and asked the children: "Should we walk back or take the bus?"
"Go back!" several people said in unison.
Lin Xia looked at the round bellies of the few people and agreed to stroll back.
If you take a stop-and-go bus with a full stomach, you might end up vomiting all over the bus. Lin Xia couldn't even imagine the consequences.
The restaurant is not far from home. It only takes ten minutes by bus or half an hour to walk there.
A group of people strolled home, passing by the small streets where Lele and his friends had sold things before, and the children couldn't help looking around.
"I wonder why I didn't see those two people?"
"Could it be that he didn't come today?"
Lin Xia was walking at the back and heard the people in front of her muttering. She followed their gaze towards the streets and saw only children running around.
There was a little kid with sharp eyes. He spotted Lele and the others at once, and ran over with his eyes shining.
"Brother, I want to buy some candy!" After saying that, he prepared to take money out of his pocket.
Other children behind noticed the situation and ran over.
Lele touched his head embarrassedly: "We didn't bring anything today, so we don't have any candy to sell to you."
The other kids who came over were a little disappointed when they heard this. One of them asked expectantly, "Brother, can you come and sell it tomorrow?"
When Lele heard this, he looked at Lin Xia with some anticipation. They did want to come, but if Lin Xia didn't allow it, they definitely couldn't come.
Lin Xia looked back indifferently, her eyes asking: What do you think?
A few people looked away in disappointment and could only say sorry to the children.
When hearing a kid complaining about not being able to buy snacks, Lele asked curiously, "Aren't there those two people selling snacks? Why don't you buy candy from them?"
A little kid sighed and said, "I didn't see those two people the day after you guys came."
So they hadn't had any snacks for several days. Unfortunately, when they took the money they had to the supply and marketing cooperative store, they wouldn't buy them any snacks.
Lele and the others were a little surprised to hear this, but they couldn't help but feel happy. After all, they didn't make the deal, but those two people didn't seem to have taken advantage of them either.
Lin Xia raised her eyebrows upon hearing this and expressed her approval of the Urban Management Brigade's execution ability. This was really impressive.
At this time, Yang Yuan was indeed arguing with Haozi. The main reason was that for some unknown reason, they were selling things well, but suddenly the urban management personnel came and confiscated their things.
This not only caused the two to lose their tools, but also a batch of new snacks. They saw that these children seemed to prefer the candy that Lele and his friends sold, so they went out of their way to purchase more of the candy.
But they had no connections, so they bought the things at almost the original price. Now, everything is gone, and the two of them were almost fined.
Yang Yuan looked at Haozi with dissatisfaction. He suspected that if Haozi hadn't made things difficult for the children, they wouldn't have encountered such a thing, and in the end they themselves couldn't sell things.
"I told you not to bother with those kids. We learned it from them in the first place. It would be great if we just kept to ourselves. But now they've made it so that we can't sell things." Yang Yuan regretted dragging this teammate into this.
When I first got this idea and told Haozi about it, he didn't agree with it. It was only after he saw that Haozi was making money that he was moved to do it with me.
But within just a few days, the business was ruined.
