Chapter 090: Go to the noodle restaurant and have a big meal!
Liu Rong sighed, "I always feel uneasy. This amount of money is not a small sum."
Her heart was pounding, and she didn't know if it was because the money was too much or because she had never had the same "scam" experience as Rong Mei, which made her nervous.
Rong Mei put her hands on Liu Rong's shoulders and confidently comforted her, "Mom, it's okay. Even if the sky falls, there are still tall people to hold it up. We have the backing of the people, so we don't have to be afraid."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Zhou Nanxu who was driving, seeking his approval, "Right, Deputy Captain Zhou?"
"Yeah." Zhou Nanxu glanced at the rearview mirror and hummed softly.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly.
He loved Rong Mei so much, because she was vindictive and more cunning than a fox.
She will not suffer any loss and will call him the first time she encounters any problem, asking for his help and letting him know that she needs him.
Eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight?
It turns out she likes this number.
Then he must give her many eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight in the future.
Rong Mei spread her hands and continued to talk to Liu Rong, "Look, it's okay. Didn't we get out smoothly today? The police station chief personally escorted us out. Who can have such a good appearance as us?"
Liu Rong thought about it and nodded awkwardly.
Deputy Head Zhou?
Yes, after all, my son is an officer.
As a result, the attitude of the police officer who interrogated her changed 180 degrees after hearing this title.
So, Director Guo was willing to pay because of his son's status? Not because he was still eyeing his daughter-in-law.
After thinking it through, Liu Rong finally accepted this "windfall" calmly.
But the money belongs to her daughter-in-law, and she has no right to interfere.
The car soon arrived at the Xu Ji Noodle House that Qin Cheng mentioned.
Zhou Nanxu parked the car, and Qin Cheng took Rong Mei and Liu Rong into the noodle restaurant first.
The shop is not big, with only four or five tables.
As soon as he reached the door, the boss standing in the house's eyes lit up when he saw Qin Cheng, and he came forward to greet him enthusiastically.
"Hey, it's Xiao Qin here."
You can tell at first glance that he is a regular customer.
Qin Cheng smiled and ordered, "Yes, Uncle Li, give us four bowls of beef noodles."
The boss smiled and squinted at the dark street outside the store, "Four bowls? Xiao Zhou is here too?"
Although he didn't see anyone, his tone was firm.
Qin Cheng replied, "Yes, I am here. I have parked the car and will be right back."
Qin Cheng had just finished answering when Rong Mei kept her word. She stood up and smiled at the shop owner and said, "Boss, give us an extra ten yuan of beef each."
"What?!"
The shop owner, Uncle Li, suspected that he had heard it wrong.
The beef costs ten yuan per person. This female comrade from outside is really bold to order it. She looks like she is here to mess up his place.
But he was not angry, and explained with a smile, "My dear young comrade, I only sell noodles here, and beef is just a side dish. I put a few pieces of beef in a bowl of noodles to make it fresh. I buy fresh beef every day and cook it on the spot. I only prepare two or three pounds of beef every day."
After explaining, he looked at Rong Mei curiously and asked, "But where is this young comrade from? He doesn't look like a local."
Qin Cheng took the lead in introducing them to the store owner, "Uncle Li, this is Zhou Nanxu's wife and mother."
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Nanxu walked in from the door.
"Uncle Li." He first greeted the shop owner.
"Is this your wife?" Uncle Li looked at Rong Mei curiously and asked Zhou Nanxu.
"Well, this is my wife and my mother." Zhou Nanxu nodded and introduced them to Uncle Li generously.
Uncle Li nodded, "Sure, you're capable of finding such a beautiful wife."
After saying that, he walked into the kitchen, brought out a yellow porcelain bowl, opened the lid, and placed the half-full bowl of beef on the dining table.
He said boldly, "To celebrate Xiao Zhou finding such a beautiful wife, this remaining half bowl of beef is for you."
After saying that, he looked at Liu Rong and Rong Mei and asked, "What do you think of the old sister-in-law and this young comrade? Do you like strong flavors?"
Rong Mei smiled and said sincerely, "I'm fine with anything. I'm not picky. I just want to eat some meat. I'm craving meat."
Liu Rong also responded, "I'm fine with either. Just keep it light, keep it light."
"Okay, then you guys sit down first, I'll go to the back and cook noodles for you."
After Uncle Li entered the kitchen.
Rong Mei leaned close to Zhou Nanxu's ear and asked curiously, "Isn't this called Xu Ji? Why is the boss called Uncle Li? Or is Uncle Li not the boss?"
Zhou Nanxu patiently explained, "That's right, the boss's surname is Li. The Xuji sign is the sign of Uncle Li's ancestor from his mother's family. Uncle Li was also a retired veteran from our army's kitchen squad.
After retiring from the army, he chose to continue his old business and opened a noodle shop, and then kept the signboard of his mother's family. "
"Oh, I see." After gossiping, Rong Mei nodded as if she understood.
Zhou Nanxu continued to tell Rong Mei, "But all the money Uncle Li earned from running this store was sent to the orphans of his comrades-in-arms. He would send it on time every month."
"The orphan of a comrade-in-arms?" Rong Mei frowned slightly.
"Uncle Li has been to the front line against the US." Zhou Nanxu's eyes were full of admiration for his ancestors.
Rong Mei understood without Zhou Nanxu continuing to speak.
In those years, more than 190,000 soldiers died, including unmarried young men, husbands and fathers who had just become husbands and fathers...
They are the ones who shoulder the future of the motherland. It is because of their sacrifice that the people can live in peace.
But they stayed in another country forever, and most of them couldn't even return to their homeland...
It is true that some people are extremely morally corrupt, while others can selflessly dedicate themselves to others.
Uncle Li is a man who looks simple and unpretentious, but is actually a great man.
Rong Mei touched her chin and asked Zhou Nanxu for his opinion, "Then wait until I get the money from Guo Gang tomorrow and give two thousand to Uncle Li?"
Anyway, it's free money. I'd better donate two thousand to the orphans of soldiers. It's worth it.
As for why not donate all the free money?
To be honest, her ideological awareness has not yet reached such a high level.
Besides, she thought it would be a good idea to keep the remaining money.
Later, she would donate countless sums of this remaining money.
But, now.
She needs the remaining money to make more money...
Zhou Nanxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Pursing her lips, she said to Rong Mei, "You decide on this matter. I'll listen to you."
The money is not his, so naturally his wife has the final say.
Of course, even if the money was his, he would not stop his wife from using it.
