Chapter 164 Old sisters come to congratulate!
He scolds Lin Xiuzhen at home every day, saying how unfilial this daughter-in-law is.
However, Lin Xiuzhen herself did not know this.
Even if I knew, I wouldn't care much.
A few old friends came to the store today.
Old Mrs. Zhang and Zhao Qiuju and a few others came over.
We first met a few years ago when we were shopping together.
Later, when Lin Xiuzhen worked in a state-owned restaurant, several of them often went to patronize the business.
This time, they heard by chance that they had opened a shop in the city, so they decided to come and join in the fun.
Zhao Qiuju said dissatisfiedly as soon as she came up, "Why didn't you inform us of such a big event as the opening of the business? We could have come and supported them."
"It's not too late to come now. I'll cook for you today and let you taste my cooking skills." Lin Xiuzhen was also very happy when she saw these people.
After all, when I was in the most difficult times, it was thanks to my own people who took care of my business.
Moreover, after such a long time, we have become familiar with each other and have developed a bit of the friendship of old sisters.
It’s not that I didn’t inform everyone when I opened the business, I just didn’t want everyone to spend money. If I specifically informed everyone, it would feel like asking for gifts from others.
Originally, Lin Xiuzhen was thinking of notifying them when she goes back next time, so that they can come over for dinner when they are free.
I didn't expect a few people to come here first.
"Don't we know your skills yet?" Zhu Xiuying said with a smile.
Lin Xiuzhen asked Gu Xialin and the others to help entertain the guests while she went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes.
A few people visited the store.
"I didn't expect this shop to be so big. Has it been connected?"
"Yes, my mother thought this shop was too small, so she connected the three shops together."
When the three heard that the three shops were connected together, they couldn't help but gasp.
This month's rent is much higher.
However, they soon noticed the business here. Just when it was almost time for dinner, people started to arrive one after another.
You know what, this business is really good.
The food arrived soon, all of which were Lin Xiuzhen’s specialties.
"It looks like we're in for a treat today."
Lin Chuxia also served some milk tea, which was unexpectedly especially to the taste of the fusion people.
"This milk tea is really good, but we are old and our teeth are not so good, so the pearls are too chewy."
"There are other ingredients, you can add them in and try them."
"Okay, okay, that's great. I now regret not living in the city." Old Mrs. Zhang said with some regret.
There's no other way. This thing is just too delicious. I can't come here to eat it every day in the county town.
"That's right. It makes me want to live in the city."
Several people were talking happily, and after Lin Xiuzhen finished cooking, she came out and sat down to chat with them.
I learned that everyone is doing well recently. Now they are just taking care of their grandchildren at home and there is nothing else to do.
Instead, some of them envied Lin Xiuzhen's life.
"What's there to envy? Isn't my life a hard life?"
"Each has its own merits. You are busy making money, and we are busy taking care of our grandchildren. It's not bad to enjoy the company of your grandchildren, but your children are also promising."
Several people had heard before that both daughters of Lin Xiuzhen's family were admitted to university.
You have to know that the quality of college students in this era is still very high.
Once you graduate from university and start working, you can get a stable job.
"It's all the kids' own hard work. I didn't do anything back then."
We could only talk and laugh, and it took more than two hours to finish the meal.
After the meal, several people wanted to pay the bill, but were rejected by Lin Xiuzhen.
"Okay, let's stop being so polite. Consider this meal as my invitation for you to come all the way here to increase the popularity of my restaurant. I can't thank you enough."
The last few people didn't give any money either. Zhao Qiuju felt a little embarrassed.
"Look at you, they are so familiar with each other and so polite, which makes us dare not come again next time."
"Come on! You have to come if you have to. At worst, I'll charge you next time."
"It's a deal, next time you come over you must collect money. If you don't collect money, we won't dare to come again."
Afterwards, Lin Xiuzhen happily sent them to the station and then came back.
But I didn't expect that after I got back, I would hear Gu Xialin say that there was thirty yuan in the fruit she brought.
Lin Xiuzhen felt helpless when she heard this.
These people probably knew that she was unwilling to accept the money, so they put the money in the fruit in advance.
"Really? I said I wouldn't be so polite, but I still gave you money."
"That means the aunts are really nice people. They probably don't want us to spend money. It's okay. Next time they come over, I'll give them something. There's still a long way to go, and I can still repay this favor."
Lin Xiuzhen did not dwell on this matter anymore.
"You have enough manpower here now. If there is nothing else, I would like to go home. Is there anything you want me to bring?"
"There's nothing you need to bring for now, but you have to be careful when you go back this time, mom. I'm afraid the people from the Gu family will cause trouble." Gu Chunlan couldn't help but mention it.
"Don't worry, the Gu family will definitely not get any benefits from me."
So in the afternoon Lin Xiuzhen returned to the village.
Many people greeted her enthusiastically when they saw her come back.
Lin Xiuzhen could clearly feel that the people in the village were particularly enthusiastic towards her.
At first I didn't know why.
By the time she saw people from the Gu family at the door of her house, she had guessed what was going on.
Most likely, they found out that I opened a store in the city.
The reason why the people in the village were so enthusiastic about her was that they just wanted her to help them find jobs.
Lin Xiuzhen didn't look happy at all when she saw the Gu family.
"What are you doing here?"
"Xiuzhen, I heard that you opened a restaurant in the city?"
"Who told you that?"
Lin Xiuzhen did not admit it, but just asked them who told them that.
"This is what I heard from the people in the village. Are you really opening a restaurant in the city?"
"That's not happening. Stop listening to those people's nonsense." No one in the Gu family had expected that Lin Xiuzhen would actually deny this. The words they wanted to continue talking got stuck in their throats.
"How could there not be any? It's all the rage in the village right now."
"Should I admit to something that never happened?" Lin Xiuzhen rolled her eyes in front of several people without any hesitation.
The Gu family members couldn't help but look at each other.
