A group of people, plus four stools, squeezed into a long table.
Order eight plates of cold dishes, two plates of dumplings, and one serving of soup per person.
Except for Xiao Zhao and Gu Zhenyuan, other comrades in the criminal investigation team have never eaten Li Shuping's dumplings.
I heard from Xiao Zhao that Captain Gu's parents like to eat dumplings from this restaurant very much. He eats them all the time and they look forward to it very much.
Some customers who didn't know about Li Shuping's deeds, seeing so many police officers coming to the dumpling restaurant to eat dumplings and being so familiar with her, thought that she might have some background.
Those who have evil thoughts should put them under control.
Zhu Wuyong walked to the door of the dumpling shop with his hands behind his back. Just as he was about to step in, he saw a table of police officers sitting inside the shop.
He was startled at first, then he retracted his foot, glanced at Li Shuping who was eating, and turned away.
Gu Zhenyuan frowned as he watched the bald man's back as he left. This man was clearly about to come in, but when he saw the police in the store, he turned around and left. Obviously, there was something wrong.
Only mice are afraid of cats.
After eating the dumplings, the police officers from the Criminal Investigation Team all praised the dumplings for being delicious and praised Captain Gu for choosing a good location.
This meal of dumplings is as satisfying as a table full of food at a state-owned restaurant.
After the meal, Gu Zhenyuan packed up another portion of dumplings to take away. Li Shuping wanted to give him some change, but he insisted on paying four yuan. When Li Shuping wanted to give him the change, he refused to take it.
Gu Zhen bought one portion of dumplings from afar and drove to his sister's house to deliver two portions. Since his sister and brother-in-law were not at home, he gave them directly to the nanny at home.
After returning home, he sent four copies to the Li family and kept four copies for himself.
It was not Zhang Jiao's turn to cook that day, so she was off duty and went to the dumpling shop to take a look.
At the beginning of the shift, many people came in and out of the dumpling shop, and it was a prosperous scene.
"This Li Ji Dumpling Shop is doing really good business. I wonder how much money it makes in a day?"
"I've been there, and they make at least 70 or 80 yuan a day. They also sell cold dishes and soup, and they basically sell out all the food."
Two Chinese women walked past Zhang Jiao, chatting.
Zhang Jiao did the math in her mind, seven or eight yuan, minus the cost, she could earn at least two yuan a day, right?
After all, when she first set up the stall, the old woman's net profit was only a few yuan a day. Of course, it is not ruled out that the old woman extorted more money.
But I definitely have five dollars a month.
Thinking that so much money had nothing to do with her, Zhang Jiao felt like a cat was scratching her heart.
If only she hadn't gone to school to look for Lin Xiaobo before, she wouldn't have angered the old woman and completely fallen out with her.
In that case, she could bring Junjun to show her good will to the old woman.
But now, even if she wanted to show her kindness to the old woman, she would not give her face. Of course, she herself could not bring herself to do so.
At dinner time, Zhang Jiao mentioned the dumpling shop.
"I went to Changning Street to buy some things after work today. From afar, I saw that Li Shuping's dumpling shop was doing good business."
Lin Yong frowned. Why did he mention her again?
Doesn’t this affect people’s appetite for food?
Zhang Jiao: "Guess how much money her dumpling shop makes in a month?"
Lin Yong: "It doesn't matter if you make more money, just give it to our family."
"That's right." Liu Qin agreed, looking at Zhang Jiao sarcastically and said, "Sister-in-law, you are not trying to please Li Shuping because she makes money, are you? You have only been beaten for less than a month, and you have forgotten the pain so quickly?"
"..." Zhang Jiao choked and glared at Liu Qin.
"I don't mean anything by saying this. I just said it casually. I heard people say that you can earn at least six dollars a month."
Zhang Jiao added that she just didn't believe that Liu Qin wouldn't have any thoughts when she heard about so much money.
Liu Qin was stunned. How could she earn so much in a month?
Lin Yong didn't believe it, "How can there be so many?"
Lin Jianshe said while eating his rice: "She used to make a lot of money in a month by setting up a stall. Now that she has opened a store, she can only make more, not less."
Lin Yong snorted coldly, "I still say the same thing, no matter how much she earns, it has nothing to do with our Lin family. No one in our Lin family wants her dirty money."
Lin Guodong and the others didn't say anything while eating, but they were actually thinking about something.
In the kitchen, Li Shuping was holding a colander and looking at the dumplings in the big pot.
Qin Rong walked up to her and took a look at the table closest to the kitchen. He had slightly gray hair, was wearing a white dacron shirt and black-framed glasses, and looked like a man of about six years old.
He whispered, "Sister Li, look, that old man is here again, still staring at you."
Li Shuping glanced casually and met the old man's eyes. The latter adjusted the leg of his glasses, nodded and smiled at her.
She had a deep impression of this customer. In the past half month, he came to the store to eat dumplings almost every day and always liked to stare at her.
"Sister Li, do you think this old man will look down on you?" Qin Rong said with a frown.
Li Shuping had never thought about it, but it was not impossible.
It's not that she was confident, but the old man's action of staring at her did seem a bit like that.
Although she thought it was possible, she still said, "I don't think so."
Li Shuping stayed in the kitchen and did not go out. The old man finished his dumplings and sat for a while before paying the bill and leaving.
The next day, the old man came before 1:30. There were no customers in the store yet. Li Shuping and Qin Rong were sitting on stools peeling garlic.
Li Shuping winked at Qin Ye, asking him to go and greet him, but the old man said, "Comrade Li Shuping, I want to talk to you."
Li Shuping looked at Qin Rong, who raised her eyebrows.
"What to talk about?" Li Shuping asked.
The old man said, "We have something more important to talk about. Please spare me a moment to talk."
The old man was quite polite. Li Shuping hesitated for a moment, but finally walked with him to a table near the inside and sat down face to face with him.
"I'm Sun Weicai, I just turned six today. I was the deputy director of a textile factory before I retired. Now my pension is over 180 yuan a month..."
"Wait." Li Shuping pushed her hand out. "Why are you telling me this?"
Sun Weicai was very dissatisfied with the word "old". He was only six years old and not very old.
"My wife passed away in an accident half a month ago. I want to find another one. To be honest, I think it's you."
When he said "I'm looking at you", he held up the leg of his glasses, as if to say "It's your honor that I'm looking at you."
Li Shuping's eyes twitched. This is what men are like. His wife is only half dead and he wants to marry again.
As a woman, Li Shuping felt sorry for the man in front of Sun Weicai.
"From my observation of you and my understanding of you, I know that you are diligent and virtuous, and you look OK. You barely meet my standards for a second wife."
"Once you marry me, you won't have to open a shop in public."
"I have a little son who hasn't found a suitable job since he came back from his hometown. You can let him run this dumpling shop. You just need to do the housework at home, take care of me, and live a good life with me."
For a woman to run a dumpling shop in public is hard and dishonorable. It is no match for her to be supported by a man like him at home.
Li Shuping: “…”
Wait, did she hear that right?
Not only does this old man want her to marry him and be his nanny, he also wants her shop!
