Chapter 412 Return to Qingzhou



Luo Guo put a hand on Lu Cheng's shoulder, "This is exactly the same as Brother Lu."

"Go away, kid."

Lu Cheng shrugged and shook his arm down, "If it weren't for Brother Yu, you almost couldn't go home for the New Year. Have you forgotten so quickly?"

Yu Duocai sighed, "Let's go, don't let Mr. Song laugh at you."

Song Yuehua just smiled and said nothing.

Among these four people, Master Yu is the best in academic performance. Lu Cheng and Luo Guo come from well-off families, but unfortunately they are poor students.

Yu Duocai is the best at chess, and as for his studies, he seems to be better than Lu Cheng and Luo Guo.

With the presence of young people, the atmosphere in the entire chess hall became lively.

After a while, Luo Guo came over again and asked, "Are there any new dishes recently?"

Song Yuehua thought of the boiled pork that Zhou Xiaohu had just learned from Xie Wenwu, and said, "There is a dish called boiled pork, but I'm afraid it's a bit cold to eat now..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Guo said, "Give me a portion of boiled pork, and another portion of braised pork for them."

On normal days, we would order one dish for four people. But school has just started and your wallet is full again?

The next person to come in was Wu Zheng.

Considering how he ignored her last time, Song Yuehua didn't say anything to him.

After asking for a set of chess pieces, Zhao Xiaofu asked, "I just cooked brown sugar ginger eggs. Would you like a bowl?"

"Have a bowl, please." Wu Zheng said.

After everyone left, Zhao Xiaofu smiled and whispered, "You can't tell, you have a stern face, but you love to eat brown sugar ginger eggs."

It is indeed unexpected.

"Brown sugar ginger eggs? Ginger and egg syrup? The names are too confusing." Song Yuehua said.

Zhao Xiaofu said helplessly, "I've said it twice, but it's no use. Anyway, it's enough to know what it is."

"All right."

It's OK when there are no customers, but it gets a bit busy at noon.

Just then, a student of Xiang Chen came to play chess with him. Xiang Xiaoyu seemed a little overwhelmed. Only when Xu Ji came over and helped her did she calm down.

When they had time, Song Yuehua asked Xiang Xiaoyu if he wanted to hire another assistant to help.

Xiang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "At noon, we have to deliver food and add tea. It's really busy for a while. Xu Ji will come over at this time. There's no need to send another person over when he's here."

Song Yuehua nodded.

Right now the chess club business is just barely stabilizing. Adding one more person would only make the burden heavier.

Zhao Xiaofu said gloomily, "If my legs were fine, I wouldn't be afraid of the store's business being so good."

"I've never heard of an accountant who has to work as a clerk," Song Yuehua said gently, "Don't think too much."

Song Yuehua turned to the two and said, "When Xu Ji comes over in the future, make him a bowl of brown sugar ginger water every day, so as not to let him work in vain."

"Do you want to add eggs?" Xiang Xiaoyu asked.

Song Yuehua nodded and said, "Add 2."

Zhao Xiaofu said, "I heard that the clothes of those who live in You Mansion are washed by Xu Ji's mother. I plan to send my clothes to her mother for washing."

Song Yuehua thought about it and realized that Erguotou and Zhao Tiejiang were both difficult to wash clean, and it was not convenient for Zhao Xiaofu to wash, so this was a possible solution.

"Now that their family has an income and food to eat, their lives have improved a lot," said Song Yuehua.

Xiang Xiaoyu said, "Xu Ji is also very clever. He carries vegetable dumplings to the market every morning to sell them. He is really amazing."

In the afternoon, most of the chess hall was full of people, many of whom were so weak in chess that they could be compared with Song Yuehua.

The reason these people sit here is partly because of the warmth and partly because of the set meal.

Song Yuehua held up her face and looked at the situation, sighing heavily.

At this time, Xu Ji came in, supporting the limping Master Mu, followed by Master Zuo Si, who had a violent look on his face, and Master Bai, who had a helpless look on his face.

"Mr. Mu, what's wrong with you?" Song Yuehua hurried out and asked.

Looking down again, Xu Ji's eyes were red.

"Xu Ji, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Ji sobbed and said, "My mother was beaten by bad guys, and it was Grandpa Mu, Grandpa Zuo and Grandpa Bai who saved my mother..."

"Are you okay?" Song Yuehua asked, squatting down.

Xu Ji shook his head.

I'm glad you're okay.

Xiang Xiaoyu cleared the table and invited the three gentlemen to sit down.

Song Yuehua came over and asked, "Did Master Mu hurt his foot? Are Master Zuo and Master Bai injured?"

Mr. Bai waved his hand and said, "We are fine. Old man Mu was too impulsive and sprained his foot halfway through..."

Song Yuehua took out one tael of silver and asked Xu Ji to go to Doctor Gu's shop to buy an ointment for bruises and injuries.

Then he asked Xiang Xiaoyu to bring the three of them some brown sugar, ginger and egg syrup.

Song Yuehua said, "The three of you should drink some sugar water to warm your bodies first. The chef just prepared a boiled meat dish. I will treat the three of you to taste it tonight."

Master Mu waved his hand and said, "Master, there's no need. We are not here to ask for anything. We just hurt our legs and can't walk far, so we came in to warm ourselves up."

Song Yuehua smiled and said, "You three have helped my family's guys, so I naturally have to express my gratitude. If you feel it is inappropriate, I will come to your house the next day to thank you. I hope you will not turn me away."

The three old men looked at each other and were all amused. A meal was not too expensive, so they didn't hesitate to be polite.

Doctor Gu examined Mr. Mu and confirmed that it was just a minor sprain. He applied some medicine and called it a day, then asked Mr. Bai to play two games with him.

Now that we've been hit, what else can we do? We can only stay with him.

In the evening, Zhou Xiaohu learned about the situation and prepared three dishes for the three masters.

Since Zuo Siye liked to eat fish, he made squirrel fish. Since Mu Ye liked to eat meat, he made boiled pork.

Mr. Bai likes to eat vegetarian food, so he made a dish of eight-treasure tofu.

Zhou Xiaohu did not include boiled pork on the menu and returned the money Song Yuehua had used to buy medicine.

"Xu Ji is my man, and I should be in charge of his expenses."

Song Yuehua was too lazy to be polite and nodded to ask Zhao Xiaofu to accept it.

After Xu Ji went back to see his mother, Song Yuehua called someone over and asked, "Where does your mother live? Is there anyone looking for her?"

"Sister Song, I don't know. I work here on weekdays, and my mother washes clothes at home." Xu Ji choked.

Song Yuehua raised her head and said to Zhou Xiaohu, "Tell his mother to find Hou Wu and rent a new place to live. Don't live there anymore."

Xu Ji's mother had done something dishonorable before. If she didn't move out, there would always be flies coming to her door.

Zhou Xiaohu also knew about Li Niang's situation. He nodded and left.

After dinner, Qi Juncai's servant Awang also came to the door, also to ask about Xiaobao.

Song Yuehua sent him back with the same excuse.
