Chapter 200



"That's tiring too. A kid like that won't run around. Dad, you're old enough to enjoy your life. How can you still do such tiring work? Xiaozhen, you're so unfilial."

"I am unfilial?" Ye Xiaozhen laughed. "Second uncle is filial, but why didn't he lend a hand when he saw Grandpa taking care of several children and farming all these years ago?

Second uncle is filial, why did you come to visit grandpa empty-handed, without even a pound of sugar? Oh, could it be that Second uncle's filial piety is just lip service? When he criticized us, was he thinking about how to outsource filial piety to us? "

They thought the little fool was not good at speaking, but they didn't expect that every word he said was so sharp that they were shocked.

Xie Zhiguo's face turned pale when he heard this.

Zhang Hui's defense was immediately broken, and she couldn't even maintain her fake smile.

"What are you talking about? Back then? Dad was only 50 years old back then, and he was very capable. It's different now, he's much older now, how can it be the same?"

"So?" Ye Xiaozhen smiled, "Are you planning to be filial to your grandfather now?"

Second: “…”

"Before, Grandpa was still young and didn't need you, but as you just said, Grandpa is old now and it's time for you to serve him."

The second child's face turned the color of liver.

At this time, Lin Xinghua said, "That's fine. I'll go with you to your home and live there in my old age. According to tradition, when the first one dies, I should live with the second one in my old age. I'm old and can't be a burden to my grandchildren anymore. I promise I won't do any work when I go to your home, and I won't help you take care of your children. By the way, you don't have any children yet, that's good."

The color of Er's face changed from liver to eggplant.

"Dad, our house is too small to accommodate you."

"Your living room is not small, just put a bed board in the living room for me, I don't mind."

Second: “…”

"No, you can let me live on the balcony. I am old enough and I am not picky. I can live on the balcony."

"How can this be possible?" Xie Li came over at this time. She wiped her hands and said, "Second uncle and second aunt are so filial, they would rather set up a bed on the balcony to sleep than let you sleep on the balcony. The balcony is not a good place. It is cold in winter and hot in summer. You will not be able to bear it at your age. Second uncle and second aunt are still young, they will be fine."

Then the color of my uncle and aunt's faces changed from eggplant color to the color of a pot.

"Xie Li, it's not your turn to speak yet." Zhang Hui finally caught the man.

What Xie Li had done was enough to poke her in the back.

Zhang Hui said immediately, "When our family was in such a difficult situation, you went to raise a wild boy and didn't care about your three brothers and your grandfather. How dare you blame us? Humph, only my nephew is stupid to let you come back. If it were someone else, they would have beaten you the moment you stepped into the house."

That decision was a painful one for her. Xie Li's eyes were red as if someone had stepped on her sore foot.

Lin Xinghua stood up and protected her, "Don't blame Xiaoli here. Xiaoli is a married girl, no one stipulates that she must take care of her parents' affairs. You, Zhang Hui, have been married for so many years, have you ever taken care of your parents' family? Humph, don't think I don't know that you only take care of your own family, and you don't care about your parents' family or your husband's family. How can you have the nerve to blame others?"

They only have one granddaughter in two generations. In fact, Lin Xinghua loves Xie Li very much, even more than his grandchildren.

Xie Zhiguo said, "Dad, you can't say that. I admit that we didn't take care of you and your nephews over the years, but I didn't take advantage of Lin An either."

Ha, what a joke, doesn't he want to take advantage of it?

"Xie Li is different. She left easily back then. Now she eats your food and lives in your house. You can't keep accommodating her like this."

"Who said my sister lives in our house?" Ye Xiaozhen stood up and said, "My sister lives next door. She has her own house. She is here now because she opened a shop with me and works here."

ah?

Both of them were shocked.

I thought that the houses here are not cheap. Even a small apartment would cost about 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. Could she afford it?

Xie Zhiguo looked at her inquiringly, "Is this the house that Lin An gave you?"

Um?

Xie Li said, "What are you talking about? I bought it myself and I still have the invoice."

"You bought it? Where did you get the money?"

"What? Didn't you see that I married well?" It's a bit disgusting to use Zhang Jianhua to shut them up.

"My husband works away from home and sends me more than 200 yuan every month. He has been working away from home for several years. With the money I save from planting trees and raising chickens, I still have 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

When Erji heard her say this, he looked as if he had eaten a fly.

What's going on?

How come those former burdens are now richer than their parents?

Ye Xiaozhen didn't want to talk to them anymore and ordered them to leave.

"Uncle and aunt, I have seen it now. If you have nothing else to do, please leave. We have to get busy."

"This..." The purpose of their coming here today was to test the waters. They didn't intend to quarrel with them, so why did they start quarreling?

I saw the hotel, but it hasn't opened yet, so I can't tell what it is like.

Forget it, I'll come back after it opens.

"Okay, Dad, let's go now. I'll come back to see you in a few days."

Lin Xinghua snorted and ignored them.

After the second brother left, Ye Xiaozhen took Xie Li back to the kitchen to comfort her, "Don't listen to them. You are better than them anyway."

Xie Li pulled the corner of her mouth with difficulty, said nothing more, and buried her head in her work.

Their steamed buns have more and more varieties, and many flavors are not available in other steamed bun shops.

Advertising was not popular at that time, and their reputation relied entirely on word of mouth.

The advantage of this is that customers are stable, the conversion rate is high, and the loyalty is high.

The disadvantage is that it cannot be fake, it has to be truly good, and then the promotion speed will be slower.

Half a month passed like this, and I knew that their store had more and more customers. I no longer had to queue up early in the morning, because if I came too late, I wouldn't be able to buy the hot flavor.

The bun shop registered by Ye Xiaozhen also passed by at this time.

굛LiXiang Steamed Bun Shop took the first step towards becoming a brand.

Now that the name was approved, she could order a custom plaque.

That day Ye Xiaozhen went to find a carpenter, got a piece of old elm wood, and asked him to carve a few words "Lixiang Baozi Shop" on it.

After paying the deposit, the other party said it would take five to five days to complete.

All the lettering is hand-engraved, and it has to be polished and the font color is also hand-colored, which is indeed a bit slow.

Seeing that the business was getting better and better, better than they had imagined, Ye Xiaozhen came up with the idea of ​​hiring two nimble girls to sell buns specifically.

She discussed it with Xie Li, and Xie Li wrote a job brochure and posted it at the door of the bun shop.
