Chapter 105 Understanding people’s hearts

Niu Niu still remembered Cheng He and shouted into the room with a smile: "Mom, Aunt Liu, another regular guest, uncle, is here!"

When Liu Xiaoru saw it was Cheng He, a smile immediately broke out on her face, and then she suppressed the smile as if she was afraid of being discovered.

Zhang Yuniang, who was standing beside her, looked at her childish attitude and her heart sank.

"You came early today." Liu Xiaoru said with a smile.

Cheng He smiled reluctantly, handed over the food box he was holding, and said, "The freshly baked Xueyun Crispy is still hot. Hurry and try it."

Liu Xiaoru took it and said, "You are here with me all day long. Don't you need to take care of the affairs of Chunfeng Tower?"

Cheng He said: "The manager will take care of the things in the building. I will keep an eye on everything. Besides, it is the morning and there are few guests. I like to stay here with you."

Liu Xiaoru opened the food box, took out the plate of snow cloud cakes, and urged Zhang Yunniang and Niu Niu to eat quickly: "I remember that Niu Niu likes to eat snow cloud cakes."

When Niu Niu heard this, she made a bitter face, stretched out her little hand and patted her round belly: "I'm full and can't hold it anymore."

Liu Xiaoru did not force the child to eat now, but instead said considerately: "I'll wrap it up and take it back later."

Niu Niu’s eyebrows curved: “Aunt Liu is the best!”

Cheng He turned his head and forced a surprised expression and said, "Little girl, I haven't seen you for a while."

Niu Niu replied seriously: "Uncle, I have returned to my hometown during the Chinese New Year and will live in the county from now on. You have to take more care of our business."

Cheng He chuckled when he heard this, and then seemed to realize something, and asked Liu Xiaoru: "You don't own this store?"

Liu Xiaoru hadn't realized what was wrong with this question, and said with a smile: "I didn't tell you that the store is mine. I only own 30% of the shares in this store, and the majority belongs to our Niuniu."

Cheng He's face froze, then he said: "It's too hard to open a shop. I have to guard the shop all day long and I don't have any free time. I'll ask the shop assistant to come over and help you later."

Liu Xiaoru did not accept it and said: "Now the business in the shop is getting worse day by day. I can't afford to support one more person."

Cheng He said in a low voice: "Of course the wages for the workers in my shop should be paid by me."

Liu Xiaoru still shook her head and said: "No reward for no merit, if I really get someone to help me, what kind of person would I become."

Cheng He smiled ambiguously, but due to the presence of Zhang Yunniang and Niuniu, he didn't say some words.

"There is a temple fair tomorrow night, I will pick you up." Cheng He said.

Liu Xiaoru nodded lightly and did not refuse.

Cheng He didn't stay long, nodded to Zhang Yunniang and Niu Niu, stood up and left.

Zhang Yunniang found a small gadget for Niu Niu and sent her to sit in the sun at the door of the shop. She pulled Liu Xiaoru to speak in a low voice behind the counter.

"Do you really like Cheng He?" Zhang Yunniang asked.

Liu Xiaoru nodded lightly and said, "Sister, you know, I am too tall. Generally, men standing next to me are shorter than me. Although Cheng He is about the same height as me, he doesn't mind at all that I am too tall."

Zhang Yuniang said: "I thought you didn't want to get married for the second time."

Liu Xiaoru said: "I didn't want to do it at first, but he treats me gently and considerately, and takes me into consideration in everything. He is much better than Wang Yaozu."

Seeing her like this, Zhang Yuniang suddenly didn't know what to say when the words came to her lips. Liu Xiaoru changed the topic and said: "But I still want to take another look. I met Wang Yaozu earlier and I can't make mistakes when I get married for the second time. Sister, please help me to find out his faults."

Zhang Yunniang took a deep breath and said, "Your brother-in-law discovered something. I told you, don't worry."

Liu Xiaoru promised well, but after hearing what Zhang Yunniang said, she immediately jumped up and shouted: "This **** bastard, I'm going to smash up his restaurant! I'm going to spit in his face!"

Zhang Yunniang didn't expect her reaction to be so big, so she quickly stopped the person and said, "There is no businessman without a traitor. It's nothing unusual for a businessman to do anything. I thought you liked him very much."

Liu Xiaoru said: "No matter how much you like it, you can't hurt my money! I will kill anyone who dares to stop me from making money!"

Zhang Yunniang:…

Liu Xiaoru sat down and angrily grabbed the abacus and started playing hard.

The more she calculated, the angrier she became.

"We used to sell five pots a day, and individual customers bought at least two pots a day. Now we only sell one pot a day. The shop has made at least fifty taels less these days!"

Liu Xiaoru suddenly thought of Aunt Sun's words again, and immediately said: "He is causing trouble in Chunfeng Tower, and it is he who spread the rumor that it must not be mixed with mud and sprinkled with golden juice!"

"During this period, he kept talking about how he would marry me in the future and let me enjoy the blessings without having to work so hard. He would help me take care of the shop and let me just take care of the accounts!"

"He's just after our shop and our secret braised food recipe!"

"Suddenly being so kind and sending a waiter to the store must be to steal the secret recipe!"

"The person who climbed over the wall before might have been sent by him! Unfortunately, I have no evidence, otherwise I would have arrested Mr. Chen!"

Listening to Liu Xiaoru's words one after another, Zhang Yuniang didn't even have a chance to speak, but she felt relieved in her heart.

"Sister, why are you looking at me like this?" Liu Xiaoru was frightened by Zhang Yunniang's stare.

Zhang Yuniang stretched out her hand to push back a strand of hair from her sister's forehead, and said softly: "I was afraid that you would be sad and unable to bear such a blow."

Liu Xiaoru snorted softly and said, "I've only known him for a few days, how sad it can be. I thought I was finally lucky and met a nice person, but I didn't expect him to be a wolf-hearted person again."

She said it harshly, but the hurdle in her heart was not so easy to overcome.

Zhang Yunniang patted her.

Niu Niu, who was sitting at the door looking around, turned around and seemed to notice that Liu Xiaoru was in a low mood. She ran over and threw herself into Liu Xiaoru's arms.

Liu Xiaoru hugged the fragrant and soft little girl, and her heart gradually calmed down.

"Sister, I don't want to sell the braised food to his restaurant! But if I really don't sell it, I have to worry about how to sell two pots of braised food to individual customers every day. I can't just let Niu Niu sit and eat at the door every day." Liu Xiaoru said.

Zhang Yunniang also felt that it was very rare. Continuing to sell braised meat to Cheng He was almost like waiting for death. After all, his restaurant had begun to gradually reduce the purchase volume. Once it was 70 to 80% similar, it would definitely stop purchasing.

Cheng He made a double plan. On the one hand, he ruined the Gu family's shop, and on the other hand, he attacked Liu Xiaoru, trying to get the complete secret recipe from her. When necessary, he could also buy the Gu family's shop at a low price as an acquaintance. Come down.

Niu Niu didn't know the cause and effect, and asked in confusion: "If you don't want to sell this restaurant, can't you sell it to another restaurant?"
