"Dad, I've told you three times not to let Big Brother interfere in the restaurant's affairs. If you have something to do and can't take care of it, just tell me. Why did you let him go to buy food again?"
Lin Min was angry and his tone was quite displeased.
Lin Min was not humane at all, and Gu Decheng was also very angry. "Xiao Min, we are all family, do we need to be so clear? Your eldest brother has been very diligent recently. He helped me buy vegetables in the morning.
I went to work in the fields, and he was helping me share some of the work. Besides, he didn't ask us for compensation, he just helped me because he saw that I was working hard. Your sister-in-law didn't come to the restaurant to eat, so why are you always not here?
Still not letting it go?"
In the elderly’s view, they must balance the relationship between their two sons. A harmonious family is the key to success, and less trouble is worse than more.
Besides, since Gu Jinghui can’t find a suitable job outside, wouldn’t it be a good idea for him to help import food for his own restaurant?
Gu Decheng felt that Lin Min was a bit too mean!
"Dad, come and look at the prices for yourself. They are nearly twice as high as they were a few days ago. This is what my eldest brother did." Lin Min angrily slammed the menu on the table.
Gu Decheng and Gu Jingxiu both looked over and asked, "What? The price of the vegetables is not right?"
Gu Decheng didn't know many words, but he could still understand Arabic numerals.
He picked up a few price lists and compared them, and immediately saw the problem.
It is indeed higher than the purchase price he paid a few days ago.
He was speaking for the boss just now, but was immediately slapped in the face. His old face was burning.
No more refutation or excuses.
He looked at Lin Min, and he no longer had the confidence to accuse her of being unkind. "I'll ask your eldest brother when I get home tonight."
Lin Min put away the list and said, "I'll buy the goods tomorrow morning. Don't worry about it."
She looked unhappy and went to the cashier to check the bill herself.
Seeing this, Gu Jingxiu cursed his elder brother in his heart for being so useless and then retreated to the kitchen.
She said that her elder brother got up so early in the morning these days and rushed to buy food. It seemed that he was eating the money.
It really is true as the old saying goes, there is no gain without pain.
Lin Min calculated the turnover and put away the account book.
Remembering that Gu Jingxiu had just said that Lin Yongqiang had returned, I planned to go look for him.
It had only been ten days and Lin Yongqiang was back.
He was dressed respectably, so he must have met Tang Jingshu, right?
Otherwise where would the money come from?
Lin Min left the restaurant, turned left, and after a few more steps arrived at the entrance of the mahjong hall.
The mahjong hall is not big, with a few mahjong tables inside, but they don’t have electric shuffling tables.
People were shuffling cards at several tables, and the noise was quite loud.
The proprietress of the mahjong hall was sitting on a small honeycomb coal stove, cracking melon seeds. There was a plate of melon seeds and a small alarm clock on the small table next to her. Their store charges on time.
Lin Min glanced at the door, and sure enough, she saw Lin Yongqiang, who was wearing a very flashy and eye-catching red leather jacket, with a cigarette in his mouth and mahjong in his hands.
It has indeed changed a lot.
Looking at his appearance, he seems like a very wealthy young man.
Lin Min stood at the door and looked at him, thinking, did he extort money from Tang Jingshu and then go back to his hometown or what?
You can't say that he won it playing mahjong, right?
The proprietress often went to Xiao Min's restaurant to eat these days, so she recognized her.
Seeing her standing at the door, she spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth and greeted her, "Boss Lin, what are you doing in the mahjong hall?"
"Well, find someone." Lin Min walked in.
There were a few mahjong tables filled with men playing mahjong. The place was filled with smoke. Some were joking, while others were cursing because they didn't get the right cards. It was not a lively place.
.
Lin Min was standing behind Lin Yongqiang and just heard Lin Yongqiang bragging to his mahjong friend at the same table.
"You don't know, that girl has a thin waist, tsk tsk ..."
Some people naturally didn't believe it, "Just brag, you even hugged a woman's waist, did you dream about it last night?"
"Who is bragging? I also built a Ferris wheel. Do you know what a Ferris wheel is? It's very high and you can sit on it and spin around."
My friend didn't understand what the Ferris wheel he was talking about was.
"Okay, stop blowing, it's your turn to draw a card."
Seeing that they didn't believe him, Lin Yongqiang curled his lips and drew his cards.
I feel like there is a gap between him and these bumpkins!
The mahjong friends didn't believe it, but Lin Min did.
She paused for a moment, and seeing that Lin Yongqiang hadn't noticed that there was someone behind him, she raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder.
When Lin Yongqiang looked up, he saw Lin Min standing beside him.
He was startled.
After he knew such an explosive secret, Lin Yongqiang suddenly looked at Lin Min and felt a little guilty.
His eyes flickered, "Hey, Lin Min, why are you here?"
Lin Min said lazily, "It's nothing. I was just passing by and saw you playing mahjong inside. I haven't seen you for a long time. I came in to see if you won any money."
Lin Yongqiang went to the restaurant for lunch in the morning and met Gu Jingxiu. No matter how dumb he was, he could guess that Gu Jingxiu said something that made Lin Min come over.
He prevaricated guiltily, "Yes, yes, brother, these two are quite lucky."
Lin Min leaned forward slightly and looked at him. "You look very happy and energetic. Did you make a fortune?"
The mahjong friend sitting opposite Lin Yongqiang had seen Lin Min and knew her. He joked, "Your brother has become rich. Didn't you see his outfit? He is the most handsome guy on our street now."
"Where have you been recently? I heard from them that you went to work and started earning money so quickly?" Lin Min asked curiously.
How could he possibly tell her the truth? "No, I went out for two days, but that job wasn't suitable for me, so I came back and I'm still comfortable sitting at the mahjong table."
Lin Yongqiang was lucky today. When he turned over the cards, he shouted excitedly, "Oh, I won!"
He took the money and planned to take a break before fighting again.
"Xiao Min, come with me." He pulled Lin Min out of the mahjong hall.
Lin Min had a cold attitude and followed reluctantly, "What for?"
"Is that restaurant yours?" Lin Yongqiang asked.
Lin Min naturally couldn't admit it, "How could I afford to open a restaurant? It was opened by the Gu family, and I was just helping out. When I got married, I only had two quilts on my back and a bag of paper.
How can I open a restaurant if I don’t have any money?”
Lin Min's words were full of complaints, pity, and grievance.
After hearing this, Lin Yongqiang felt even more guilty and a little bit remorseful.
He wondered, "Why is the restaurant named after you?"
Lin Min curled her lips and said in a cold tone, "They are just trying to make me happy and make me stay in the Gu family and live with Gu Jingchuan."
It has been like this ever since.
Lin Yongqiang stared at her with burning eyes and asked tentatively, "Are you completely devoted to me? You don't have any other ideas, do you?"
His obvious test made Lin Min roll her eyes inwardly.
But still cooperate with him.
