Chapter 48 Is it because...



"You kid." Xu Cuilian glared at her. "People are not gods. Everyone makes mistakes. Can't you give them a chance to correct their mistakes? They can still be released from prison after serving their sentences."

Xu Cuilian looked at Jiang Yi, "And I was wondering if you still have any misunderstandings. Can you look at things in a new light? Lu Yunxiao has good conditions, his grandfather was also a soldier, he has a good family background, and he has a good reputation in the army. It can't be all fake. Where can you find such a partner in the future?"

Xu Cuilian was openly advising Jiang Yi, but in fact she was also secretly giving Jiang Yao a shot of prevention.

She felt that what she said were very realistic issues.

It will be really difficult to find a husband in the future with a child.

She is also an experienced person. Her husband died early, and she was in her thirties with three children. Some people advised her to remarry, and she looked at several men, but they were either too poor, ugly, or not good in that aspect.

In the end, she didn't get married and had to raise her child alone. Only she knew the hardships involved.

Everyone looked at Jiang Yi.

Ultimately, the attitude of the parties involved is what matters most.

Not sure if it was Jiang Yi's illusion, she seemed to hear a sneer coming from the sofa behind her, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Jiang Yi turned around, "You don't want to eat? Everything is ready."

Nie Can glanced at her dimly, "I suddenly don't feel like eating."

Jiang Yi felt that this man was really fickle. He just said he wanted to eat for free. But she respected his idea, "Oh, then take care."

For some reason, after saying this, I suddenly felt that the atmosphere became a little cold.

Nie Can smiled again, turned and walked out.

The dark blue shirt disappeared under the dim stair lights outside, seeming to have a sense of arrogance and loneliness.

For a moment, Jiang Yi wanted to say, I'll go see him off.

But the next moment, it changed to: "Xiaoyao, go see your Uncle Nie off."

Look, she is a very open-minded sister. She did not break up the couple and created conditions for them.

She didn't notice that Xu Cuilian behind her had a worried look on her face.

Jiang Yao came back after a while. She didn't know what they talked about. She smiled and whispered to Jiang Yi, "Sister, I have already persuaded Uncle Nie. Don't worry."

Jiang Yi: Now that you mention that, I suddenly feel worried again.

At this time, in the military compound.

Li Meizhen was cooking dinner for the old lady and was extremely worried.

The old lady doesn't like to eat this, can't eat that, and orders her around. Does she really think she is the Buddha? The Qing Dynasty has already perished, okay?

After finally making a dish of steamed spareribs, she said she forgot to put ginger in it. I scolded her and asked how could there be no ginger!

He went back to his room after eating only two bites.

She was just torturing herself on purpose.

Li Meizhen was so annoyed that she just gave up and walked out of the room, only to see Yang Shuo coming in with his drunk son.

"Jiang Yi, you are a heartless person." Lu Yunxiao shouted angrily.

Li Meizhen almost vomited from anger. She had heard the word "ginger" enough today.

Yang Shuo looked helpless, "Auntie, I held him down, but he insisted on drinking. Hurry up and make him a bowl of sobering soup." The last time he got drunk was probably on his wedding night, and he was also a mess.

Yang Shuo settled the person down and left. Li Meizhen looked at her son lying on the bed like a pile of mud, feeling extremely distressed, "Just leave, there are women in this world."

Why are they all thinking about her?

Li Meizhen's mind moved. Yes, I heard from Su Wanqing yesterday that Jiang Yixue was doing business and opened a restaurant, but encountered big troubles. It might not be able to open, and all the money invested would be wasted?

Humph, what ability does Jiang Yi have? She has lived with her for five years, and she still doesn’t know?

Do you think you can do business just by calculating numbers? You deserve the loss.

If things go wrong, she might come back in disgrace.

So the next day, she told the news to two ladies she was close to, and they went to the city together to have a look and see the jokes. If Jiang Yi asked her to help, maybe she would help him because she came back to take care of the old lady.

When Su Wanqing heard the news, she hurried to follow.

Fortunately, the opening of the Tea House went on as scheduled.

On that day, Jiang Yi moved the tape recorder from his eldest brother's house to the store and also set up a large speaker, which played the opening information and festive songs on a loop, such as "Greetings to You, Friend" and "A Glass of Wine", creating a very lively atmosphere.

On the opening day, there are promotional activities. Different discounts are offered to customers who enter the store during different time periods, and coupons are also issued for use when a certain amount is reached.

When customers pay, they can apply for a card based on the amount of money they spend. These methods are common in later generations, but at this time, they are rare.

"What? There's a lottery after dinner?"

The owners of the surrounding hotels and restaurants were all surprised.

Who came up with all these tricks? Is there any money to be made with such preferential policies?

Just asking them to calculate this number gives them a headache.

Not only that, Jiang Yi also invited a radio station to broadcast the promotion information. This was also a rare practice, because at that time, everyone opened a restaurant and relied on word of mouth to promote it.

Even good wine needs no bush. Jiang Yi bought ten days of advertising and even set aside a table to invite the editors-in-chief of local newspapers and radio stations.

In addition to the last promotion in Nie Can's store, some people came to inquire about it before it opened. This time, after receiving the notice of opening, they reserved seats early and the private rooms on the second floor were already full.

"Come, let's set off firecrackers!" said the sister-in-law.

They are not like Mr. Nie, who invited dancing lions, but setting off firecrackers is also festive.

Jiang Yang brought a few of his co-workers to join in the fun, all of them bringing firecrackers that made a crackling sound.

Opening a restaurant is all about popularity. The more people there are, the more people will want to come and have a look. Once they come, they will want to go in and eat. So customers will come, and they will come again after trying the food.

"Make way, make way."

Suddenly, someone came carrying a basket of flowers. Everyone made way for them, and Pan Qiang came over with a group of people.

"Sister Jiang!" He waved to Jiang Yi outside the door.

Jiang Yi took a look and saw eight flower baskets following behind her. Soon they were arranged in two rows in front of her shop, one row read "Good luck in opening the business" and the other row read "Booming business".

"So many flower baskets!"

"Who gave this? It's so luxurious." The guests all started talking about it.

Pan Qiang came over with a smile, "Brother Can's idea."

Jiang Yi was a little surprised, "Thank you very much, where is your General Nie?"

"He didn't come because he had something else to do." Pan Qiang said, and took out two red envelopes, "This is a little gift from Mr. Nie and me."

"You're so polite."

"Yes."

Jiang Yi gave the red envelope to her sister-in-law, who took it and found one of them was very heavy.

He looked at the eight magnificent flower baskets again and thought, is it just for Jiang Yang's sake?

Others don't know, but she knows that although Nie Can and Jiang Yang are comrades-in-arms, they did not have very close contact before. Their relationship is close, but not like brothers.

Is it because...

The sister-in-law smiled and said, "That's not bad, if that's the case."

In her opinion, President Nie is much better than Lu Yunxiao.

Jiang Yi asked the waiter to call Pan Qiang inside, but Pan Qiang refused to go, saying that he was there to help her. There were too many people today and Jiang Yi couldn't handle them all, so she didn't hesitate to ask him to help maintain order.

The line stretched to the next door "Shuangwaiwai Chicken" restaurant!

The boss of "Shuangwaiwai Chicken" was not happy at all. He twisted his mouth and hummed as he watched the customers coming in droves, with a look of envy and jealousy on his face.

"Tsk, let's see how long they can keep showing off."

The lady boss of the pickled fish restaurant next door also came out, eating sunflower seeds with a sour look on her face, "I think they worked for nothing all day."

Not far away, Li Meizhen was dumbfounded as she watched people coming and going at the entrance of the teahouse.

He stared at Su Wanqing standing aside, his eyes saying: Didn’t you say it can’t be opened?

Su Wanqing almost broke her nails. How could this happen?

She told Li Meizhen the news in advance because she knew that Li Meizhen would bring people to watch the fun and laugh at Jiang Yi. Unexpectedly, not only did the store open as scheduled, but the business was also so good.

"Your daughter-in-law is very capable." said Captain Liu's mother.

They don’t know yet that Lu Yunxiao is divorced.

Another group training director Zhang's mother also said: "So you want to show off, your daughter-in-law wants to invite us in for a meal?"

Before Li Meizhen could say anything, Mother Zhang and Mother Liu walked over happily.

Li Meizhen had no choice but to follow the two mothers. She felt very nervous. She hoped that Jiang Yi would at least give her some face for the sake of their relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
