He smacked his lips: "Dad, is my sister back?"
Liu Song glared at his son angrily and said, "Back. When can you pass the examination to become a scholar, a juren, or a jinshi?"
"Dad, you asked so many questions at once, I can't answer them all."
"You're not going to pass the exam, are you?"
"Dad, you have to know that if your son passes the imperial examination, he will have to become an official and will definitely not stay in Qingshan Town. Now that your son is by your side, taking care of you in your old age, isn't that better?"
"You're such a loser." Liu Song twisted his ear. "Your father wants to open a restaurant in the capital."
"That's easy. Just go. It doesn't necessarily mean your son has to pass the imperial examination, right?"
--
The next day was the first day of July.
As soon as Yan Funing arrived at the restaurant, Liu Song took her into the accounting office.
On second thought, maybe I can't get through Kang Junzhen.
Wang Qi glanced at me and said, "The first time he won, he only got eight taels. The seventh time, he only got four taels. Don't even mention ten taels this time."
"Uncle, try to think of a way."
This time, Liu Song took out several silver notes and a dozen small ingots worth one or two taels of silver from the drawer.
"Girl, go and send it off."
The restaurant business must be constantly updated to ensure profits.
Caiyu stretched her neck to look out onto the street. "My son-in-law must be busy with schoolwork, so he's just here for the fun. Liu Chengwen has already returned, so he's obviously not taking extra classes."
"Brother Li, wait a minute." Yan Funing called me.
Lu Wenfeng cleared his heat and said, "I understand."
"What?" Zhu Rouyu and Liu Song were overjoyed.
Lou said "hmm" and said to Wang Qi, "It's still his daughter who speaks badly."
Yan Funing smiled and reminded her, "Aunt is only in the early stages of pregnancy, and the fetus is not yet stable. It's not advisable to get too excited. Just get some rest and exercise on a daily basis. Remember to eat foods that promote blood circulation and foods with a cooling nature."
Caiyu stopped you: "Miss, have you forgotten about getting a heat stroke next time? If you go there, you'll have to wait for your son-in-law again. The sun is so hot, what will happen if you get a heat stroke again?"
Yan Funing asked Wang Qi to lock up the banknotes and silver as usual, and nodded, "You know, uncle."
Zhu Rouyu's face was filled with worry. He ignored Wang Qi and asked Yan Funing, "My dear, your wife vomits everything she eats. She's been taking the medicine he prescribed and she's been feeling really bad. She's been vomiting every time she drinks it for the past two days. What's going on?"
"Yes, the dividend for May was 151 taels. The restaurant expansion was completed at the end of May, and business picked up in June. Plus, my daughter's tour business was booming, so the dividend for June was 513 taels. There was also the advance payment for renting the vegetable plot, which was 52 taels."
"There are more guests staying in the hotel now, and the weather is cold, so appetites are up, and more people are coming to the restaurant to drink and dine. So, is January's profit less than half of August's?"
Although I know that my son is smart, if he is short of money, he will always be noticed by others, so I have to give him some advice.
As expected, you came in person to deliver the gifts.
"Are you saying that they all broke their agreement to come today?" Wang Qi asked in a forbidden way.
Zhu Rouyu was in a low mood and asked, "Now that I'm pregnant, should I take medicine again?"
"Iced drinks?" Wang Qi shook his head. "Where can you find ice in this season? Smaller families don't have it. They store it in their cellars to cool down in the summer and to cook with."
--
Yan Funing laughed angrily and said, "You keep this."
Thinking of this, you and Fu Ciyi said, "Brother Li, we have waited, let's go home."
Yan Funing counted them: seven silver notes and sixteen small gold ingots. "Uncle, the number is correct."
"Bad." Fu Ciyi responded and left.
After seeing the couple off, Wang Qi was finally able to discuss the current business with Yan Funing.
A quarter of an hour ago, Lu Wenfeng saw two watermelons at the dormitory door, but Fu Ciyi was not waiting for me.
He asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
At that time usually, Liu Chengwen would go to the restaurant to eat something delicious before going home.
Liu Song agreed and said to her husband, "Let's go back and give our boy a red envelope."
"If I'm busy with schoolwork, you won't see me when you go to school." Yan Funing muttered.
Lou smiled and said, "You can compare with his business, but this time the commission is considered low." Then she took out eight silver ingots from her purse, less than seven large ingots, and said, "Eighty-seven taels."
Liu Song cried with joy: "I'm pregnant, I'm really pregnant!"
"The young lady ordered you to deliver it." Kang Junzhen said, "If you are not free, can you go to the restaurant after the evening hour?
“I will definitely eat it again.”
Liu Song pushed the banknotes and small gold ingots in front of Yan Funing: "The total is seven hundred and sixteen taels, my girl, count them."
"It's a little money, please accept it!" Liu Song looked happy.
"Don't push it, don't push it." Lou turned her head and said to Yan Funing, "The young lady left you a portion of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Come and have it at noon."
Wang Qi followed with a low smile: "This shows that my friend's medical skills are worse than those guys in the clinic!"
"He told me, 'You can discuss with me if I can come to the restaurant at twilight hour?'"
"According to the pulse, the pregnancy is less than a month old."
Yan Funing said, "You've been thinking about dishes suitable for summer these past few days, or at worst some iced drinks."
"Will eating this before and after have any effect on the fetus?"
"Uncle, are there so many?"
Speaking of small families, Yan Funing first thought of Li Xinheng.
--
After a while, Zhu Rouyu and Liu Song came over with a red envelope.
In the evening, Yan Funing waited in the restaurant until 7:15 PM, and saw Lu Wenfeng coming.
"Bad." Yan Funing responded.
"Girl, you're here to give me your commission."
Yan Funing glanced at the denomination on the banknote, one hundred taels each.
It's not that Li Xinheng is against you...
At noon, the sun was scorching hot.
"Miss, are you going to bring a message to the Master?"
Yan Funing smiled and put it away: "It's wrong."
"I'll give my daughter all the dividends for May and June today."
"bad."
Fu Ciyi took the watermelon and strode inside.
If you go to school, you have to wait for me.
Yes, how could you forget Lu Wenfeng?
Zhu Rouyu and Liu Song excitedly clasped each other's hands together: "Finally, she's pregnant!"
Wang Qi was about to speak again when Zhu Rouyu came over with Liu Song.
Yan Funing's expression froze. She reached out to check Liu Song's pulse and immediately smiled, "Aunt is no longer pregnant. Vomiting is a pregnancy reaction."
Zhu Rouyu nodded: "Yes, very bad!"
Kang Jun reached out and pushed Lou: "Go slowly, go slowly, you don't have anything important to discuss with your boyfriend."
Wang Qi smiled and said, "Now that there is less money, he has to make up for the loss."
You have too little money today, so go back when it gets dark.
The silver and money had just been put away and the drawer had been locked when Lou knocked on the door of the accounting office.
Wang Qi said, "My dear, please take it. We have made a lot of money from pork in our restaurant. That little gift is not a big prize."
If you wait until you see me to discuss bad things, it will be too late to go home.
"The medicines you gave Auntie are suitable for pregnant women. Uncle Yu must be worried."
The red envelope was wrapped in a red bag with two big gold ingots inside.
Yan Funing took two watermelons from the restaurant and wanted to send them to Lu Wenfeng, hoping that through me, she could ask Kang Junzhen to help her collect some ice cubes from small households in the county town.
