Chapter 218 Cleaning the New Shop
Coincidentally.
Same as before.
He was turned away again.
Not only that.
Ma Chunxia also insulted him.
So much so that he, who was flattered by the villagers, went home with a gloomy face.
"What's wrong? Who offended you?"
Jiang Guangyi was lying in the recliner.
There's not even a flick of the finger.
Last time, Widow Liu asked for too much.
He sprained his waist and hasn't recovered yet.
"It's okay, Dad. I have to go back. Gai'er and Yao'er are still in town. I'm worried."
What needed to be done has been done.
Staying any longer would be a waste of time.
The ox cart was still waiting at the door. Jiang Lingu turned and left after he finished speaking.
Jiang Guangyi did not stand up to see him off.
The afternoon was not as hot as at noon. Jiang Guangyi leaned back in his chair and fell asleep in a daze.
Until Chen Qiuju came back from the fields.
He was just woken up.
"How did you twist your waist when you were fine? You left me alone to do all the farm work. I am so exhausted. Where is Lin Gu? Did he go home? This kid doesn't even know how to help me with the work. He runs so fast."
Chen Qiuju's old face was sunburned red.
The sweat towel around her neck was soaked.
Even from a distance, Jiang Guangyi could smell the sweat on her body.
"You fell while going to the toilet in the dark. You are old and your health is not good. You should stop working. From tonight, someone will do the work in our fields. You just need to pretend to go for a walk every morning."
Jiang Guangyi gave a strange smile.
Chen Qiuju, who was drinking water, did not see it.
After quenching her thirst, she asked, "Why, did you find a fool to help you with your work?"
"What fool? Who in our village is stupid? I took out the benefits, otherwise do you think they would work for us for nothing? I told them that as long as they help us with the autumn harvest, I will give Jiang Yidao's land to them for free to farm. As for next year, they don't have to work there. The land will be rented out to others to farm.
It doesn't matter if we can't rent it out. We can just hire someone to grow crops. Anyway, our son has become the shopkeeper. I heard that his salary has been raised. He makes one or two taels of silver a month. If we get tired of living in the village, we can go to the town to live with our son."
After Jiang Guangyi finished speaking, he held his waist and turned over.
Chen Qiuju asked him again: "What? Give the Wang family's land to them to farm? What if the villagers find out? Also, who are you going to ask to help our family? Tell me."
"Who else could it be? Zhuzi from the widow Liu's family, and Zitao from Wang Xiulian's family. These two get along well. Don't worry, they won't tell anyone. As for Jiang Yidao's land, I will say that the land has been sold and I can't give it to them to farm. What can they do to me? Humph, I am the clan leader. How dare they offend me?"
I have to say, Jiang Guangyi and Widow Liu are really a perfect match, no wonder they can get together.
They actually thought of the same thing.
The land of the Wang family.
It's a good excuse.
Anyone can use it.
That night.
Jiang Zhuzi and his sister went to the clan leader's field with Jiang Zitao.
Under the moonlight.
The three of them worked hard.
Some were weeding, some were watering.
Everyone worked very hard.
Day and night alternate.
Jiang Fubao put on his clothes, stretched himself and walked out of the house.
My mother and second aunt went to buy goods under the bed in her room.
With her grandmother's help, she brushed her teeth and washed her face.
He held a bowl of warm white porridge and ate it with pickles without even raising his head.
The whole family is going to town today.
For the time being, I let Grandma Chunxia and her family help with the work in the fields.
Her brothers and sisters stayed at home to look after the house.
My sister-in-law stayed to look after them.
As for lunch, Zhang Jinlan didn't trust her granddaughter-in-law to cook, so she simply scooped out two bowls of fine rice, took them to Ma Chunxia's house, and asked her to cook together.
The oxcart was packed today.
Jiang Fubao didn't even dare to open the blocking function. He thought the cow must have been cursing very badly and must have suffered a lot today.
Arrived in town.
Not everyone in the family went to the shop at once.
Instead, it was divided into two batches.
Grandpa, Dad and Grandma went to clean the new shop and see if there were anything else that needed to be purchased.
The rest stayed in the old shop.
Today, every customer who came to Jiang's snack shop was told that the shop was about to move.
I heard that the new shop was the former Wangyue Food Shop.
Everyone's jaw dropped.
"Hey, this, Brother Jiang, I advise you to sell this shop quickly. Didn't you ask before buying this shop? Don't risk your life just to make a little money. I heard that the person who took over this shop couldn't last more than three months.
Some people who are weak will fall ill in a week. Don't worry, I will serve you this. Even if your restaurant is located in the wilderness, I will still go there to eat."
"Yes, sell it quickly. Don't be afraid of losing some money. No one would dare to buy a shop like this. If you sell it at a lower price, you should be able to get rid of it. It's not worth losing your life for a little money."
"..."
In the shop, all the old customers were chattering and persuading each other.
Jiang Eryong felt helpless.
How should he explain it?
He is not the one in charge of the family. His mother has made up her mind, who can stop her?
He gave a brief explanation and didn't answer any more questions.
When everyone saw that he was silent, they knew that they had been talking too much.
They simply lowered their heads and started eating and drinking.
In the afternoon, after selling all the food, the Jiang family gathered in the backyard of the shop and began to move all the things in the shop.
Tomorrow is the agreed date.
The Bai family wants to refund the rent to them.
The new shop was cleaned in just one day.
All the tables and chairs are ready-made.
As long as we move the things from the old shop to the new shop, we can open for business tomorrow.
As for the new shop signboard, there is no need to make a new one.
Jiang Dahao and Jiang Eryong borrowed a ladder, climbed up, took down the old plaque, and put it in the new shop.
The main focus is to save money and effort.
Within two days, almost all old customers were notified that they were moving the shop, and even many new customers knew about it.
Before going home, Zhang Jinlan asked her eldest son to buy two strings of firecrackers and put them in the new shop, waiting to be set off when the shop opened the next day.
While attracting customers, it can also get rid of the bad luck in the shop.
Get everything done.
The ox cart just left the city gate and started its journey home.
Halfway there.
It was half dark.
Jiang Fubao fell asleep.
She was held in her father's arms and fell asleep lying flat on her back.
No matter how bumpy the ox cart was, Daddy always managed to hold her steadily.
When returning home.
The moon is out.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt went to the kitchen to cook some simple food. After eating, they washed up and went to bed.
As for Qian Xile and the children, they had already had dinner.
Given by Ma Chunxia.
They had originally agreed to only have lunch, but they came back too late and Ma Chunxia was worried that Qian Xile, who was pregnant, and the young children would be hungry.
He personally delivered the food to the door.
You are so polite.
Qian Xile had no choice but to accept it.
Because we came back late, Ma Chunxia and Wang Taohua did not come to deliver bamboo tubes and bamboo sticks today, nor did other people in the village.
Until the next morning.
The sky is slightly bright.
Ma Chunxia and Wang Taohua came with their son.
"Sister Jinlan, something bad has happened!"
