It was already past dinner time, and there weren't many people inside. There was an empty seat, so he walked over and sat there. This was also his first time to eat at Jiangweilou, as he had only seen it from the outside before.
Erji saw another customer coming and immediately walked over with a pen and paper, saying enthusiastically, "What would you like to order?"
He looked at the menu and said, "Let's go for your specialty."
"Okay, wait a minute!"
He looked at the people in the store and recalled how deserted it was when he first opened the store. He felt very sad. The dishes were served very quickly, in less than a quarter of an hour. They looked very ordinary, but the portions were quite large. However, the plates on which the dishes were served were also quite ordinary. It was completely different from the restaurants he had eaten at before. He was really curious why there were so many customers. There were many more people than the restaurants he had been to before. Although the prices were quite cheap, there were several cheaper places, and none of them was as lively as Jiangweilou.
He picked up the chopsticks but was confused about which one to eat first, because what he didn't expect was that the only dish was wild vegetables. These were the wild vegetables that his mother picked in the mountains every day, and he never ate them.
Forget it, I put down my chopsticks, picked up the pancake, spread the meat sauce on it, took a small bite, chewed it, swallowed it, and immediately took a big bite and started eating. The taste is very unique, it is indeed delicious. The most important thing is that you can't stop eating it, and it makes you feel safe.
He looked at others who were all eating wild vegetables and seemed to be enjoying them very much, so he picked up the chopsticks, thinking that he had already ordered and spent money, so he might as well have a bite. Unexpectedly, this bite overturned his preconceived notion. Wild vegetables could actually be so delicious, and they were a perfect match with the pancake.
Bite after bite, chopsticks picked up the food again and again. Soon, the cakes and wild vegetables were all eaten up. My stomach was very full and I was almost full to death. When I went to the restaurant with those friends before, I never ate too much, but always drank too much.
There is a warm feeling in the stomach, which is really comfortable.
After paying the bill, he walked out of Jiangweilou and happened to meet a friend of his. The friend pulled him over and invited him to have a drink with them, but he refused!
My friend was a little surprised. This was the first time he was rejected after so many attempts. So he asked, "Why? Is there something going on at home?"
"Yes, I'm leaving now. You guys eat."
After saying that, he quickened his pace and hurried home. He just wanted to go home quickly and find his parents. He felt that he was wrong before, very wrong. Wild vegetables were good things, and he shouldn't be so ambitious.
When I reached the entrance of the alley, I happened to meet an old woman selling wild vegetables, and I walked quickly towards her.
"Mom, don't sell it anymore. Let's go home. I want to eat the food you cook."
The old woman raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes, and she said tremblingly, "Okay, let's go home."
She skillfully packed up the unsold wild vegetables, and the two returned home together. The old woman cooked a large table of dishes.
"Son, this is the wild vegetable porridge you loved most when you were a kid. I've served you a bowl of it. I also have these shredded potatoes, made with your favorite hot and sour flavor, and this braised pork. They're all your favorites, so eat more."
"good."
I think carefully about how many years it has been since I had a good meal at home. It seems that it has been since I became an adult. I have always been thinking about making more money and getting ahead. Every day I focus on making friends with the powerful and influential, and I ignore my family. Seeing my father coughing from time to time, I suddenly feel a pang of conscience.
His son has done such an inadequate job!
After Jiang Tuantuan returned home, he immediately told everyone, "Not only did my kindness save someone's life, but I also bought the shop for one thousand taels. It's really a double blessing."
Li Jingchen sat aside and congratulated, "Our Tuantuan is really amazing!"
After finishing her meal and returning to the house, Jiang Tuantuan opened her small treasury, which was filled with gold and silver, all of which were rewards from the emperor some time ago. After taking out one thousand taels, the small treasury was empty!
Looking at the empty treasury, I feel a little sad. I have to work hard to earn back the money in the treasury.
Looking at so much silver, Li Jingchen said, "Why don't I not go to the military camp to work tomorrow and go with you? It's not safe to carry so much silver, and it's quite heavy."
"Oh, it's okay, I have a solution."
Jiang Tuantuan put her hand on the silver, and the silver immediately disappeared. She had put it into the space.
The two of them stared at each other, and after a while, they turned their heads away.
The next day, Jiang Tuantuan went out to Lin's house after dinner. When she arrived at Lin's house, Hua He and Meng Zifan had already arrived and were taking the old man's pulse.
Today's condition was better, and the cough had obviously eased a lot. After the injection and the medicine were finished, the old man took the initiative to say, "Miss Jiang, this is the land deed."
He took out a piece of paper from under his pillow and said, "Let's go to the yamen and go through the transfer procedures."
"Would you like to rest for a while? I just finished taking my medicine, and it's still early."
"It's okay. If it weren't for my asthma, I'd be in good health. Let's go now."
"good."
After the two arrived at the yamen, they went through the formalities and transferred the house deed to Jiang Tuantuan's name. After returning home, Jiang Tuantuan started to pay the money.
He took out the silver from his pocket, which shocked the people watching. How big must this pocket be to hold so much silver?
Doesn’t it feel heavy?
The old man thought that she didn't bring enough money today, or didn't have that much money, and was thinking of telling her that he could give it to her in several installments, but he didn't expect that her pockets could hold so much.
The old woman took out all the 1,000 taels of silver and accepted the money. From then on, the shop belonged to her completely.
After everything was done, Jiang Tuantuan, Hua He and Meng Zifan left.
After the three of them left, the man also went out. "Dad, Mom, I'm going out for a while. I'm going to find some work."
The old woman said with concern: "Okay, go quickly, and remember to come back for dinner when it gets dark."
"good."
The man walked around and came to Jiangweilou again. He looked up and looked inside. When he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a piece of paper stuck next to the door. The man walked over to see what was written on the paper.
After taking a closer look, he found that it was a recruitment information, looking for a shop owner. Seeing this message, the man was eager to try.
This is the news Er Liu received from Jiang Tuantuan, saying that the second floor has also been bought and the scope is to be expanded, so they have to speed up the recruitment of people, so he posted it, thinking that if he can recruit them, he will recruit them, and if he can't, it won't be a problem if he posts it.
The man took a few deep breaths, looked inside with a determined look, and walked in.
"Excuse me, are you looking for a manager?"
