The guest said, "Okay, I need a rope, thank you very much."
The guest asked for a rope, so Zhou Chengning went to the kitchen to cut the rope.
During the Zongzi Festival before, small restaurants sold Zongzi, and there were still a lot of thin ropes left for wrapping the Zongzi.
Xu Xiangjuan didn't expect that this seemingly respectable man would actually agree with the "folk remedy" her man proposed.
She won't hang things around her neck because she thinks it's cumbersome.
When I bought a mobile phone, my daughter let her hang it around her neck for fear that she would lose it.
She even complained at the time that it would be better to just hang a board with identity information written on it to avoid being lost and unable to find the person.
Keys and cell phones are not the same thing, although it's not as embarrassing as a cell phone... Even if it wasn't that embarrassing, she wouldn't hang it around her neck and find it troublesome to open the door.
Zhou Chengning cut the rope for the guest. The guest was not being polite. He put the keys on the string, tied the rope into a knot and wore it around his neck. He thanked him again before leaving.
Xu Xiangjuan: "Aning, are you very experienced? About trains."
She heard her man's tone and it seemed like he had been through it before.
Zhou Chengning: "My dry food was stolen. Where was my daily supply? I was hungry when I arrived at Huadu Railway Station."
Now I still think that thieves and pickpockets are so abominable. Haven’t they ever thought that if it’s more serious, they are stealing other people’s lives?
When he was studying in Huadu, he would find a job in Huadu during the summer vacation and would go home to be with his grandfather during the Chinese New Year. There were many people around the New Year, so there were even more thieves and pickpockets.
If you are accidentally robbed, or if the thief is more skilled, you won’t even know when the thief was stolen.
He had seen people fainting from crying after being robbed at a train station, and he himself had learned a lesson from it, so he hid his things very securely.
Xu Xiangjuan: "What dry food do you have?"
Zhou Chengning remembered it very clearly. After all, the more he thought about it, the more heartbroken he became. “Three steamed buns. Although they are not as big as the ones we have at home, they are hard and one steamed bun can last for a whole meal.”
Xu Xiangjuan: "Are you stupid? The three steamed buns were stolen, so they were stolen. If you are hungry, you must go eat... You won't be hungry in the future, I am here."
Her daughter Aning must have been very frugal with her meals at that time, and most of the time she would end up having no food for the next meal after the previous one.
She said it lightly, but in reality it was definitely not as simple as she thought.
Zhou Chengning: "Well, Juan won't be hungry when I'm around, and I'll have enough to eat every day."
Niu Niu: "Eat enough."
When Zhou Chengning heard Niu Niu talking, he frowned again, "Niu Niu eats the most. Your sister is as skinny as a bamboo pole, and you are the only one in the family who has become a fat boy because of eating too much."
During the time that Guagua was at home, he was actually similar to Niu Niu, both of them were chubby little kids raised by their mothers.
But since Gua Gua had more friends and sisters, and more places to play, and she stayed out all day to play, the little girl was transformed immediately, becoming thin and dark.
Xu Xiangjuan: "Niu Niu is still young, don't talk about Niu Niu, hurry up and get busy in the kitchen."
Zhou Chengning: "Juan, just spoil Niu Niu."
Niu Niu felt that his father was saying bad things about him again, so he walked to his mother and snorted at his father.
This humming is so familiar. Zhou Chengning said, "Niuniu, your sister doesn't hum anymore. What's the meaning of your humming all day? Are you too full? Let mommy starve you for a few meals and see if you still hum."
"Aning, there are guests coming, you go and entertain them." Seeing the guests coming in, Xu Xiangjuan urged Zhou Chengning to entertain them.
Really, I don’t know why I have to compete with a child who is not even three years old. He is becoming more and more childish.
When guests came over, Zhou Chengning's expression changed instantly. He no longer looked like the stepfather he was when he was facing Niu Niu, but went to entertain the guests.
Niu Niu: "Mom."
Xu Xiangjuan: "What happened to Niu Niu?"
"Dad." Fat Niu Niu pointed at his father, as if he was complaining to his mother.
"Yes, you bad dad. Tomorrow mom will starve dad and not let dad eat. Make dad hungry." Xu Xiangjuan spoke to Niu Niu in a low voice.
Niu Niu could barely understand that his mother wanted to teach his father a lesson, and he nodded his little head, sharing the same hatred with his mother.
...
"Sister Zhao, will the leader come over?" Xu Xiangjuan didn't really care about big things in her previous life. What she heard most in her previous life were trivial and trivial things about other people's families.
In her mother's mouth, the trivial matters of other people's families are the big deals, such as so-and-so's daughter getting married, so-and-so's bachelor getting married, so-and-so's baby being born... In short, they are inseparable.
Zhao Huizhu came to Dezao Town after taking a break from her work in the county town, specifically to tell Xu Xiangjuan the news and have a meal.
In her opinion, Xu Xiangjuan was someone she could talk to, after all, she was literate, and although she was a businessman, she was not materialistic and knew a lot. Moreover, when the leaders came over in the future, they would probably come to the restaurant to eat.
I praised the restaurant for its human touch.
Zhao Huizhu: "Yes, we want to build a base here for the purpose of national grain reserves. Our county attaches great importance to the base reserve work and has been busy with this matter recently."
Xu Xiangjuan understood now, "If the leader comes to our place for dinner, we will entertain him well."
Zhao Huizhu: "It's okay, it's almost the same as entertaining ordinary guests. Just change your menu, nothing else... By then, besides the leaders, there may be other people coming."
In fact, she only found out when she came here today that the restaurant’s menu had been changed that day, and those dishes were not usually available.
Fortunately, the cold noodles were now on sale, otherwise she wouldn't know what to eat. She had only eaten at the restaurant a few times and had never tried other dishes. None of the dishes she ordered last time were available, so she naturally chose the cold noodles that she was familiar with.
When she came here with her leader before, cold noodles were a dish. She didn’t eat too much cold noodles because her leader was present. Now she can eat enough.
Xu Xiangjuan: "I understand, Sister Zhao, especially during the rice harvest, right?"
Zhao Huizhu: "Almost. Dezao Town has always been a major grain supply town. If the grain base is successfully established, there should be quite a few people, and your family can put meat and vegetables up there."
Xu Xiangjuan: "Yes, we can put meat and vegetables in it, so that we don't have to worry about the situation now where no one buys meat and we have to eat the meat ourselves."
Last time, Xu Xiangjuan followed Ding Li's advice and came up with an idea. She would put a meat dish every day and someone would buy it, but not every day. If no one bought it, her family would eat it to supplement the nutrition of adults and children.
...You can't listen to her husband. If the cow can eat, just feed it normally. Their cow is not fat, it just eats nutritiously.
...
There was a small typhoon at the end of August. Although it caused some losses, fortunately the losses were not great.
In September, when the school started, the leader never came again, but Xu Xiangjuan didn't care too much. After all, her most important thing was to save money.
"Mom, I'm going to kindergarten."
Gua Gua has put on her little schoolbag. Summer vacation is over and she is going to kindergarten today.
Now Guagua is no longer the little girl with two pigtails, but a little girl with two small braids.
Xu Xiangjuan helped her daughter hold the straps of her schoolbag, straightened her collar, and made sure her appearance was neat and tidy. "Guagua, be careful on the way to kindergarten, and come back to the restaurant on time in the afternoon. Don't stay out for a long time without telling your mother."
Guagua: "I know, Mom, I'm leaving!"
Carrying his small schoolbag, Gua Gua walked away happily.
When Xu Xiangjuan looked at Gua Gua, what she was thinking was, when he goes to elementary and junior high school, I’ll see if you’ll still be happy.
Wu Caifeng looked at Niu Niu and couldn't help but say, "Juan, Niu Niu is unhappy."
Xu Xiangjuan watched Guagua leave, then went back to coax Niu Niu: "Niu Niu can go to kindergarten next year, so don't envy your sister... Mommy will make you a small school bag, so that Niu Niu can carry it to school like your sister in the future."
She didn't know why cross-body bags are so popular now. She made a simple backpack for Gua Gua. It was big enough for a kindergarten with only a few books, and it wasn't heavy enough to carry, so there was no worry about it bending the children's backs.
Guagua still likes her little schoolbag very much and has not said she wants to change it to a cross-body bag, which saves her trouble and money.
In fact, it is very likely that Niu Niu will not be able to wait until the day he goes to kindergarten, and will go to Huadu next summer vacation.
Now that my family has saved some money, the first thing we need is to help us get through the initial period of our life in Huadu.
After she became stable, she certainly could not sit idle in Huadu and continue to do the raw food business. Only when she had money could she have leisure time. If she didn't have money, she still had to work hard, strive to make money, and strive to have leisure time.
Gua Gua is going to the senior class today. After having breakfast in a small restaurant, he went to kindergarten with his little schoolbag on his back, without his dad sending him off.
Niu Niu is getting better and better at walking. During the two months of summer vacation when his sister was on, he went out for a walk a lot. Whenever his parents and grandparents were free, Niu Niu would take them for a walk.
My sister, who had been running around and playing all summer and was rarely seen, actually went out with a small schoolbag on her back.
Niu Niu subconsciously wanted to follow his sister, but was stopped by his grandmother.
Seeing that her granddaughter had left and her daughter was free, Wu Caifeng simply left her granddaughter to her daughter and went to work in the kitchen.
When Niu Niu couldn't talk yet, he envied Gua Gua's small schoolbag. Zhou Chengning knew that this morning, Gua Gua's schoolbag might make Niu Niu more envious than Gua Gua's schoolbag: "Juan, is it troublesome to make a schoolbag? If it's troublesome, don't make one for Niu Niu. Niu Niu is still so young, he doesn't need it at all."
Gua Gua is in the senior class today and she is very excited. In addition, her parents had already paid her tuition for the senior class yesterday, so she went to the kindergarten early today. Zhou Chengning hasn't even arrived at work yet and is still staying in the restaurant.
He remembered that his wife spent several days making a small schoolbag for Gua Gua. If it was too troublesome for his wife, he didn't want her to do it.
How old is Niu Niu? The schoolbag he makes now is really useless.
Xu Xiangjuan: "No trouble, Niu Niu, mom will make you a small school bag, just like your sister's."
Niu Niu nodded and called softly, "Mom."
Niu Niu understood, so Xu Xiangjuan made a small schoolbag for Niu Niu in her free time when there were no customers.
It took three or four days to make the blue cloth backpack.
"Sister." Niu Niu carried his small schoolbag and went to talk to Gua Gua who had just returned home.
Guagua saw Niu Niu's small schoolbag and asked, "Mom, is Niu Niu going to kindergarten?"
Xu Xiangjuan: "Niuniu is not in kindergarten yet, so mommy prepared this for Niuniu in advance."
After all, it was a new schoolbag, so Gua Gua took his brother’s schoolbag down and looked at it.
Niu Niu was not angry that his sister took his schoolbag. He followed his sister to see his new schoolbag.
Guagua looked at it for a long time and said, "Mom, mine is still the best looking."
"Guagua's is better looking than Niuniu's. Boys don't have to be that good looking."
In fact, it’s hard to say whether Niu Niu will use this backpack when the time comes.
Guagua: "Niu Niu, although your schoolbag is not as pretty as my sister's, you don't have to be sad, yours is not ugly either, I will help you carry it back."
Since she was the one who took it, she should help carry it back.
