The sky gradually darkened, and the two private rooms on the second floor were brightly lit.
Everyone was chatting and eating animatedly, especially the employees in the next box, who were extremely enthusiastic and each one more excited than the other.
In the next few days, the business of the store was as booming as ever, because the prices of Lin's pickled fish shop were not expensive, and many traveling merchants and ordinary people liked to patronize it. Over time, the flow of people on West Street also increased.
During this period, because of Fu Yanzhi's arrival, everyone in the shop has become more active and hardworking. As long as they get the chance, they will all follow Fu Yanzhi to learn diligently.
Every time they learned a new word, they worked harder, and every day was like they were injected with chicken blood. Lin Mo was also infected by this enthusiastic atmosphere and learned a lot of new poems.
Before he knew it, the shop had been open for over a month. During this time, everything had gradually gotten on track, and things in the shop were becoming more and more manageable. Su Mu's arithmetic had made a qualitative leap, and now he could organize and calculate the store's accounts with ease.
Lin Mo looked at the scorching sun outside and planned to go back home tomorrow to check on the house. He thought it was almost finished.
"Shopkeeper Zhang and I talked about the situation in Qingshui Town. I stayed here for a while. Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Mo smiled dotingly at Su Mu. During this period, Manager Zhang would occasionally invite him to parties, reminding him explicitly or implicitly to go home and build a factory. Lin Mo planned to open another branch and also learn about the situation in Qingshui Town.
Lin Wen happened to go downstairs to get an iced drink. When he saw Lin Mo, he immediately rushed over and asked eagerly, "Amo, Amo, did you bring anything delicious today? What is it?"
Every time Lin Mo came back from going out, he would bring some snacks with him, all of which were things that Lin Wen and the others had never eaten. After doing this many times, every time Lin Wen saw him come back, it was like he was looking at a walking snack, and his greedy little mouth would smack.
"Would you like to go out with me next time? There are so many delicious foods out there."
The dishes in the shop are all fish, but Lin Mo still hopes to take everyone out to eat something else, especially when he goes to meet Manager Zhang. The restaurant has a wide variety of dishes and they taste good, so he has always wanted to take Lin Wen to try them.
Lin Wen shook his head frantically, his little head tossing back and forth, blinking his dark eyes, and said nervously: "No, no, there are too many people outside. Ah Mo, go by yourself. Ah Wen will wait for you at home."
Tuanzi, who arrived late, also shook his head. The two of them had followed Lin Mo to a restaurant to eat. The restaurant was crowded with adults, and the waiters kept pinching their faces...
Anyway, they would rather stay in the house and learn a few more words with the teacher than go out with Lin Mo.
Su Mu smiled and said softly, "Don't ask Awen and Tuanzi. They are shy and rarely come downstairs when they are in the shop."
Lin Mo turned around and smiled, "Then will you come with me next time?"
Su Mu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, there are too many things to do in the shop, and Yan Zhi has assigned me a lot of homework, so I can't go out."
Seeing Lin Mo's dejected face, Su Mu's heart warmed. It was not that he didn't want to accompany Lin Mo. Although he didn't want to contact strangers and was afraid to go to crowded places, as long as he followed Lin Mo, he would not worry about anything.
But now he has more important things to do. Lin Mo is so smart and capable, and he also wants to become better.
So he has to work harder to learn from Yanzhi and learn how to manage the store well, so that when Lin Mo opens another branch, he can help him more.
and……
Su Mu looked at Lin Mo, who was chatting and laughing with Lin Wen and the others. The slanting sunlight outside the door poured into his profile, illuminating his increasingly handsome face. He stared at him intently, his thoughts becoming more and more firm. Lin Mo had given each of them a considerable amount of private money, and he wanted to save it up and follow Lin Mo's example to start a small business...
Lin Mo had no idea what her husband was thinking. After rubbing Lin Wen's increasingly soft and cute little face for a while, she took out the wrapped champion cake from her arms.
This was what he packed back from the restaurant. Xinrui Restaurant attracted many scholars and literati, so the restaurant specially developed a Zhuangyuan cake with excellent taste.
"What is this?" Lin Wen took a bite. The moment it entered his mouth, the cool, sweet pastry enveloped his entire mouth. It went down his throat in just a few chews. He exclaimed, "It's delicious and sweet, and it's gone in an instant!"
Lin Mo brought quite a few cakes. He handed one to Tuanzi and took out another bag. "Tuanzi, take this to the kitchen and share it with everyone."
Tuanzi stuffed his piece into his mouth and ran to the kitchen holding the oil paper bag.
Zhuangyuan cake is a very common cake, but the taste is slightly different in each restaurant. The cakes at Xinrui Restaurant are the best Lin Mo has ever eaten, so when Manager Zhang invited him to dinner, he shamelessly packed up a lot.
"Hey, thank you, boss. I never thought I would be able to eat a piece of Zhuangyuan Cake in my lifetime."
The two waiters in the restaurant had smiles on their faces. Zhuangyuan cake is usually eaten by scholars when they enter school or take exams, which means to bring good luck.
Therefore, even if the Zhuangyuan Cake is sold in an ordinary shop, the price is not low, and ordinary people seldom can afford to eat it, at least no one in the shop has ever eaten it.
After a while, Lin Mo handed the rest to Lin Wen and reminded him, "The champion cake is not too sweet, you can eat a few more pieces, and put the rest aside to eat in the evening. Share some with Teacher Yanzhi."
Lin Wen happily went upstairs holding the pastries. He had eaten a lot of snacks in the town recently, most of which were sweet pastries. Lin Wen complained of toothache a few days ago, and Lin Mo was afraid that he would get cavities, so he kept telling him to eat less sweets.
After everyone had left, he lifted the chopping board and sat behind the counter. He took out a small package from his arms. Inside the oil paper were several intact pieces of Zhuangyuan cakes, which came in two different colors.
"This is for you. It has an extra flavor, a new one from Xinrui Restaurant, peach blossom flavor."
One is the common off-white, and the other is a light pink. Because there are not many new flavors, Lin Mo only brought some for Su Mu.
Su Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, took a piece of pink and put it in his mouth, and was quickly conquered by this new and delicious taste that he had never tasted before. He felt sweet in his heart. In addition to the sweet and smooth taste of the pastry, Lin Mo's open partiality made him feel even sweeter.
Although the pastries are delicious, Lin Mo’s are even better!
He picked up a piece with his fingers, blushing, and carefully handed it to his mouth under Lin Mo's gaze.
The two of them were here, full of love and affection.
A tightly wrapped person suddenly broke in from outside the door!
