Afterwards, the Jade Restaurant's reputation spread even further.
Many people come here specifically to see what the restaurant owner who acted bravely and righteously looks like.
Because the newspaper didn't have any photos of the people, only the location of the shop and photos of the storefront.
Lin Qingyu felt somewhat disturbed, so Gu Shi stopped her from going the next day. Li Xiuhua also advised her not to go, to avoid any trouble caused by too many people.
She finally gave in. Her belly was quite big, and she was about to give birth, so it was better to be safe than sorry.
These past few days, Li Xiuhua has been keeping an eye on things at the shop. Actually, she doesn't need to do much; she's learned how to collect fees and just sits there settling accounts every day.
However, with the surge in customer traffic these past few days, Zhang Chao's spoon is about to start smoking.
Gu Shi stayed home to take care of her, and his life was relatively leisurely.
The house was quite quiet. Lin Qingyu preferred peace and quiet, and would occasionally exchange a few words with Gu Shi.
"Oh dear, we need to give Master Zhang a raise. This month has been so busy, everyone deserves a raise!"
"Can."
Have you washed all the child's clothes? I think the short-sleeved shirt should be fine, right?
"The doctor said that newborns need to wear long sleeves. Everything is prepared, so don't worry about it."
"Well... I'm fine now, have an apple!"
Lin Qingyu held up a bright red apple and asked Gu Shi to peel it for her.
Gu Shi took the apple directly to the kitchen, peeled it, and washed two peaches as well.
"Eat up! I'll stay in the study for a bit."
Lin Qingyu took the apple and started eating it, nodded in response, and then picked up the book she often read.
The books she was reading were unread by anyone, and no one knew where she got them or how many she had read.
The weather wasn't so hot in the afternoon, and the ceiling fan was still working diligently when the phone in the living room suddenly rang.
Lin Qingyu was startled. She put down her book and picked up the phone to answer it.
"Xiaoyu, don't open the door later. Wu Zhiqing said she's looking for you, but she seems a bit strange. Be careful!"
Li Xiuhua's voice came from inside. Wu Lili walked out of the shop for a while. After thinking it over, she decided to call Lin Qingyu.
"I know, Mom. You be careful too!"
Lin Qingyu felt that Wu Lili had been acting strangely lately. She hadn't even thought of causing trouble for her, but Wu Lili kept coming to her door again and again.
Moreover, no matter what she said or how harsh her words were, Wu Lili would pretend not to understand and would continue to do as she pleased next time.
Just then, Gu Shi came out.
"Who called just now? Are you alright?"
"fine……"
No sooner had she finished speaking than the iron gate at the entrance began to bang loudly.
"Qingyu! Qingyu, open the door! It's me, Lili, I've brought you something!"
Lin Qingyu was getting impatient with the constant gifts.
She didn't want to respond, but Gu Shi walked over impatiently. He hadn't had time to deal with Wu Lili, which only made her more and more arrogant.
He hadn't brought up the matter again since Lin Qingyu had mentioned moving before, considering that Lin Qingyu was inconvenient and didn't like moving.
When I have time, I'll definitely teach Wu Lili a lesson.
He opened his front door and even opened the iron gate outside.
"Is there something you need?"
Even though Wu Lili was somewhat out of her mind, she could still feel fear looking at Gu Shi's fierce and menacing appearance.
She stammered, "I, I came to find Qingyu, I, I brought her some, some things."
"What are you going to send? We don't need your gifts, you're not welcome here, and don't knock on our door again, or don't blame me for being rude!"
After saying this with a cold face, Gu Shi slammed the door shut, leaving Wu Lili standing there.
Wu Lili's heart sank instantly; what she was holding was the clothes she had just brought from the hospital.
She specially prepared clothes for seventy-seven, seventy-four, and ninety-nine days, intending to give them to Lin Qingyu to wear during her postpartum confinement.
However, she was also dismissed from the hospital because her clothes were discovered.
Nowadays, employees are generally not easily dismissed, especially in places like hospitals.
Once you're in, you'll have a permanent position, and you won't have to worry about the future.
Moreover, the house she lives in was allocated by the hospital. Although the salary is not high, the benefits are really good.
She was fired, and her house was going to be taken away, leaving her with nowhere to live.
Wu Lili lowered her head in disappointment. She turned and went into her home, thinking she should pack her things first.
If what she gave to Lin Qingyu works, then she can simply move her own things to the other side.
Wu Lili fell into a state of obsession, and she sought out some kind of sage who gave her advice to destroy Lin Qingyu's family.
The specially prepared pear water that was brewed for Lin Qingyu was extremely harmful to pregnant women, but thankfully Lin Qingyu didn't drink it.
However, Lin Qingyu and Gu Shi would eventually break up, which was Wu Lili's constant motivation.
Ever since Lin Qingyu moved across the street from her, she has been making frequent mistakes at work, from minor issues at the beginning to nearly killing patients now.
However, she had previously recommended an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor to the hospital, and now many people go to the hospital because of that doctor's reputation, which is why the hospital has not yet fired her.
Oh, that old Chinese medicine doctor used to be from Lihua Village, the one who gave Wu Lili the medicine powder, the one who didn't get along with He Jinhua.
Wu Lili was packing clothes at home, but before she could even put away two items, she became so sleepy that she collapsed onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up again, it was already dark.
She fumbled for the light switch in the dark, and the warm yellow light illuminated her not-so-small bedroom.
The place was a mess, just as she had cleaned it up that morning; nothing had changed.
Wu Lili walked wearily into the living room. She didn't turn on the ceiling fan, so it was very stuffy.
I turned on the light and looked up at the clock in the living room; it was exactly three o'clock.
She felt weak and thought that eating something would make her feel better, so she went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles.
However, the small coal stove used for cooking had to be relit, and Wu Lili thought to herself, "Never mind," but she was also extremely hungry.
Finally, at four in the morning, Wu Lili ate her first bowl of noodles of the day.
After eating, I felt much more energetic.
Gu Shi wouldn't let her knock on the door, so surely she could wait at the restaurant!
Wu Lili picked up the clothes she had prepared and went out again before six o'clock, heading towards the Jade Restaurant.
Of course, the restaurants won't be open this early.
However, the restaurant also sold breakfast, so she didn't have to wait long before Zhou Jiahui arrived.
"Oh, you're here to buy breakfast so early! But you'll have to wait a bit, it'll be ready in another half hour!"
She thought Wu Lili was just an ordinary friend of Lin Qingyu, who had only arrived yesterday.
After Zhou Jiahui opened the door, she poured Wu Lili a glass of water, which was freshly boiled and still steaming.
"Please wait a moment, miss. The kitchen staff is here. It will be ready in another twenty minutes!"
