Chapter 116： Asking God is easy and sending God is difficult

Chapter 116 Asking God is Easier Than Sending God

"I'll give you a chance, take it well. As for my cousin, come along with me when the time comes. I'll look for him in our town these two days to see if he can find a job. If you dare to have close contacts with Qiao Shicheng , don’t blame me for being rude to you.”

"Ai, ai, no, no."

The family's eyes were red when they heard this, and they sent her to the car. The car went a long way before they wiped away their tears and turned back.

Getting into the car, Qiao Mai's expression didn't look very good.

She is willing to do all this for the original owner. After all, she is her relative. Even if she only gave her a little warmth, she will repay the original owner for this kindness.

The car entered the town, she asked the mother-in-law to go back first, and she went directly to Jingtai Restaurant.

Shopkeeper Tong was behind the counter to settle the accounts. She went straight to the counter and knocked on the counter. The shopkeeper looked up and saw her, with a smile on his face immediately.

"Ms. Qiao is a rare visitor."

"Find me a guy in your shop, can you?"

"Who are you?"

"cousin!"

"Yes, yes, but I have a request."

"explain?"

"Can you sell me a few recipes, and I will pay you a high price."

Qiao Mai's eyes widened, "Sure, how much do you want to buy?"

"It depends on what kind of dish it is."

"Okay, I just didn't eat lunch, did the fire in the back kitchen go out?"

"No, no"

Qiao Mai took off the cloak, put it on the back of the chair, and went straight to the back kitchen, followed by Shopkeeper Tong.

She glanced at the ingredients and knew what to expect.

Eliminate those recipes that were sold to the Wang family. This is a small town, and there are not so many big fish and meat, so stir-frying is the most appropriate.

She quickly started to process the ingredients, and the knife skills made shopkeeper Tong dumbfounded, it was really amazing.

The ingredients are processed well, the fire door is opened, and the oil is heated in the pot. Every step is so skillful. It seems that I don’t do less at home.

Soon, a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork, a plate of mapo tofu, a plate of braised chicken nuggets, and a plate of fish slices will be cooked.

"Is there any rice?"

"have!"

Shopkeeper Tong personally served her a bowl of rice, and she placed chopsticks on the kitchen table.

"Come on, you taste, I have to eat, I'm starving."

The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva and picked up his chopsticks. The seemingly ordinary home-cooked stir-fry turned out to be so delicious when he ate it.

Seeing how delicious Madam Qiao's food was, he also went to serve a bowl of rice, one mouthful of food, and the two of them finished the four dishes in a short while.

"How about it?"

"tasty"

"How much is it worth, can you give me the number?"

"Is fifty taels for a dish okay?"

"What about my cousin?"

"Come anytime, I just happen to be short of a buddy here, and I haven't been looking for one. Once you serve these four dishes, my shop will definitely do well."

"You are such an old fox, go get a pen and paper."

She wrote down the four recipes, and shopkeeper Tong gave her two hundred taels of silver.

"You really know how to make money. Come to my place for a free meal and make a fortune."

"I sent you a hard-working fellow, and sold you four prescriptions. You are the most profitable one. Remember that if you don't have the seasonings on the prescriptions, you can go to the pharmacy to find them."

"Okay, okay, I heard you planted greenhouse vegetables?"

"Well, the dishes can be delivered at the end of the month, but there are not many styles. I want to produce a few more dishes until the middle of the twelfth lunar month."

"Or a fixed amount per day?"

"Yeah, my family only has a few acres, and the amount paid out every day is not fixed."

"Okay, I'll ask the guy to grab it early."

Qiao Mai smiled, "Then it's settled. If there is something to tell my shopkeeper Niu, if he can't do it, tell me again."

"OK, ok"

Qiao Mai left, shopkeeper Tong looked at her back and sighed in shame.

The chef behind poked him, "Bring me Fang Zi, I'll go and try to make it quickly, and I can write it on the recipe tomorrow."

Shopkeeper Tong gave him a blank look, "You are not as good as Mrs. Qiao. She has built such a big house in just over a year since she came to the town, and she has made friends with the mayor. I heard that she also met some important people. Now she is still in the town." Live at her house."

"She is not human,"

"Then what is she?"

"goddess"

"Haha, that's a good idea, she is really a woman in the myth of our town"

Qiao Mai came home, just took off his coat, they all came to find Yuan Jiaqi.

"How is your aunt's house?"

"It's okay, it's nothing more than a lack of food and clothing. Isn't it all sent over?"

"If it doesn't work, why don't you take it over?"

"If you don't pick them up, and you don't know them well, why do you pick them up? If it's like the Qiao family, Tian's family, or your parents, you have to know that it's easier to ask God than to send God away."

"Yes, you haven't seen each other for many years, so naturally you don't understand."

"I asked my cousin to learn embroidery at Sister Lu's. It's more or less a craft. It depends on her luck. I asked my cousin to work as a waiter in Jingtai Restaurant. Let's help this step first. Watch their character as you go."

"You have a point."

Chuan'er looked at her, "Mother, you've been so busy this time, you've lost weight."

Qiao Mai smiled and bent down to hold him in his arms, kissing his little cheek, Chuan'er's little face turned red.

"Mother, Chuan'er will be six years old after the new year, men and women can't kiss each other."

"That's the one you can kiss with outsiders and with your own family, especially your parents."

"No one else's."

"Okay, mother will not kiss anymore, mother is busy, have you practiced martial arts well?"

“Every day is never broken.”

"Well, after the new year, you can fight in two teams. Just punching is not enough. You have to learn to dodge and hit the opponent's vitals. I will teach you when the new year is over."

"Okay, okay, no one dares to bully us now."

"That's because you haven't played with anyone else."

"Mother, we played with Aunt Lu's family's children before," Feng'er reminded

Qiao Mai froze for a moment, "How did you play?"

"In the backyard playground, if they want to play, we let them play, and when they go to play something else, they grab it, and we still let it go, but they grab whatever we play, and we don't let us eat the food on the table. Then there was a fight."

"Anything else?"

"Yeah, they were defeated by us."

"The child has wronged you."

"No, they are guests in our house, and we are the hosts, so we should let them go, but if they don't treat themselves as guests, we won't give them face."

"You guys are doing the right thing."

She not only praised the children, but also gave each of them a silver ingot.

"Go and play, mother is tired, rest for a while, I won't have dinner with you at night."

After sending away Yuan Jiaqi and the three children, she lay on the warm kang, closed her eyes and fell asleep after a while.

The day after tomorrow, the mother-in-law came to report that it was someone from the Liu family.

She put down what she was doing and went to the gate of the courtyard. Yesterday, she agreed with shopkeeper Lu to let Liu Ye stay with her, and let her study with Xiuhong and the two without pay.

Shopkeeper Lu agreed. In fact, to put it bluntly, she was the one who took care of food and drink.

Liu Ye was wearing old clothes, but there were no patches, and was brought to the shop by Lu Sanniang.

Liu Hai followed her to Jingtai Restaurant, put him down, said a few words to the shopkeeper, and left.

Both of them are in charge of food and housing. At least they have saved two rations for the Liu family, one for learning art, and the other for bringing back some household items every month. This year should not be difficult.

At night, shopkeeper Lu came over.

She didn't mention Liu Ye, but said something else.

"Sister, now there are rumors in the town that this house belongs to you, not mine, and it's going to leak, what should I do?"

"Let's leak it, I don't want to hide it for a long time, just ignore those rumors."

"Did I miss it?"

"You don't need to blame yourself, this matter must be hidden, you don't admit it, I don't admit it, let them guess, is it possible that I have to show the deed to prove that this house is mine?"

"Hey, that's right, I'm afraid that those two families will cause trouble for you."
