Chapter 38
"Grandmother, there are more and more people queuing up in front of our tofu stall. Many diners left because they were impatient or in a hurry. I just thought we would open a few more tofu stalls." Zhu Yan took the initiative to I told the old lady Zhu and Yuan Xiao about the plan in my heart.
The old lady Zhu stood there and thought for a while, guessing: "Ah Yan's idea is that we open more stalls, and some diners who can't get in line can go there to buy bean curd, right?"
"That's right, we set up other stalls on other streets. In addition to solving the problem of long queues for diners, we can also let other diners who don't know our stalls know us, and let more people know about us. Tofu." After Zhu Yan finished explaining, he couldn't help smiling knowingly when he met Yuan Xiao's bright eyes that glowed with admiration.
After receiving Zhu Yan's smile, Yuan Xiao immediately squinted his eyes and smiled, and then continued to speak for Zhu Yan, "Ah Yan is right, if we keep the diners waiting in such a long line, they will not agree." If you are willing, you may lose customers over time."
After Yuan Xiao assisted, the old lady Zhu directly agreed to Zhu Yan's proposal, but not long after, the old lady Zhu's brows were a little worried, and she said slowly from the side: "We can indeed open other stalls , but is there enough staff in our family now?"
I have to say that the old lady Zhu got to the point again, and Zhu Yan thought about it, so he said his idea again, "There are four streets with a lot of traffic in our town, and there are eight people in our family. Why don't you set up a stall in groups of two, and it's almost winter now, grandpa, uncle and cousin Tiedan don't go out to sell tofu, it's just right to set up a stall with us."
The old lady Zhu hummed, and echoed: "It's true that the weather is getting colder and colder in the future, and your grandpa and the others will suffer when they go out, and they don't make as much money as we do. It's better for everyone to set up the stalls together, but we can set up stalls here. how long?"
Zhu Yan knew what the old lady meant, and he took the initiative to explain: "I plan to find a suitable store in the town with Yuan Xiao in the next few days, and we will do business in the store in the future, so as not to be so tired every day. "
"Really, really?" The old lady Zhu heard Zhu Yan talk about opening a store before, and she always thought it was just a young man's casual talk. After all, their family is an ordinary old farmer in the village, so how could it be possible to open a store in the town? ?Now that she looks at the eyes of her precious grandson shining with hope, she can't help but have longing, but she is still a little worried, "Ah Yan, I have heard other old ladies say that a shop is sold. But it will cost a lot of money, our family now plus your previous earning is only a hundred taels, can we buy a shop?"
It was Zhu Yan who answered the old lady Zhu who shook his head resolutely. After Zhu Yan found that everyone was a little disappointed, he encouraged him again: "We can make money if we don't have enough money. If you sell more things at the stall, are you afraid that you won’t have enough money?”
"That's right, the money is earned by our hard work. Ah Yan said it well. Let's work hard now and try to open a shop in the town in winter." The old lady Zhu is full of ambition and calls on everyone to work hard, and at the same time She couldn't help but look at her precious grandson who was discussing plans with Yuan Xiao next to her, and her eyes immediately got wet. The silly grandson she had been protecting all this time not only became enlightened, but now he can support a family. This must be a blessing from heaven!
Zhu Yan, who was discussing things with Yuan Xiao, had no idea what the old lady was thinking at this time, he turned around and continued to talk about what he had discussed with Yuan Xiao, "Grandma, Yuan Xiao and I want to go to the town for a while The porcelain kiln ordered some porcelain bowls, we set up more booths, and the bowls and chopsticks should be added appropriately, and if we buy them, we can use them when we open a store in the future."
"Okay, you two can go as soon as you finish your work!" The old lady Zhu continued to greet the steady stream of diners with a smile after she finished speaking.
After Zhu Yan sold the bean curds, he took Yuan Xiao to the porcelain kiln in the town. The owner of the porcelain kiln was pretty good. Seeing that he and Yuan Xiao had a large number of customized rice bowls, he offered to draw pictures on the bowls. Best wishes Yan was even more delighted to hear that, and directly wrote his own signboard on the paper, and wrote his own signboard on the bowl. First, it can have the characteristics of his own shop, and second, it can make everyone remember his shop more firmly. Played a small advertisement.
The owner of the porcelain kiln held the paper, looked at the big characters on the paper, and couldn't help feeling suspicious, "Little brother, drawing flowers on the bowl is so beautiful, isn't it better than writing?"
Zhu Yan saw the owner of the porcelain kiln looking at him with the expression that you regret it now, but he just smiled, waved his hand and refused: "No, I will write these words."
"That's fine. Since you asked us to do it, we will follow your request." The owner of the porcelain kiln found that Zhu Yan was stubborn, so he stopped trying to persuade him.
After paying the deposit, Zhu Yan was about to take Yuan Xiao away, but when he saw Yuan Xiao's round and bright aura eyes, he couldn't help turning his head again, and found the owner of the porcelain kiln, please add another word next to the words: Little Sign then took Yuan Xiao away with satisfaction.
"Ah Yan, what did you draw on the paper just now? Why didn't I understand it?" Yuan Xiao and Zhu Yan walked out of the porcelain kiln, and they walked side by side on the road. He thought carefully about what Zhu Yan had just drawn on the paper. A circle and an undulating line, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
Zhu Yan clenched Yuan Xiao's hand, looked forward with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and explained lightly: "From then on, it will be our store logo. I used to see that other stores have their own logo, so I just thought about it." Sometimes our family will also get one, and now that the time and place are favorable, we will figure it out."
"But what exactly does that pattern represent?" Yuan Xiao still had a deep obsession with the pattern that Zhu Yan drew just now, and he couldn't help guessing beside him, "Could it be that the trembling line below represents the people behind our village?" The big mountain? And that circle represents the big sun, which means the rising sun! It’s like our family’s business is getting hotter and hotter!”
Zhu Yan turned his head to look at Yuan Xiao's increasingly confident little face, and couldn't hold back his hand for a moment to touch it. After he saw Yuan Xiao's eyes full of curiosity, he explained: "Yuan Xiao, it's okay for you to say that, but in fact, my pattern has a deeper meaning. I wonder if you can figure it out?"
Under Zhu Yan's call, Yuan Xiao fell into deep thought again. He walked and thought, but in the end he still couldn't think of anything, so he begged Zhu Yan softly, "Ah Yan, if you think about it again, you will lose your mind." .”
Zhu Yan looked at Yuan Xiao's well-behaved appearance waiting for him to speak, and he no longer pretended to be closed. He took Yuan Xiao's hand that was shaking with him, and drew the pattern just now on Yuan Xiao's palm as he walked, with a gleam between his brows. With a smile and deep affection that cannot be concealed, "This circle is you, and the trembling line you mentioned below is me."
"Oh!" Yuan Xiao glanced at Zhu Yan with a blushing face, and seemed to think of something again, then asked again: "Why is the line representing Ah Yan trembling? Does this mean that I am sinking?" ?”
Yuan Xiao's magical brain circuit once again conquered Zhu Yan. Zhu Yan sighed bitterly, then shook his head, and continued to explain: "Where do I mean that, isn't there a word Yan in my name? That means fire, The quivering lines you speak of represent flames."
Under Zhu Yan's explanation, Yuan Xiao came to his senses again. He shook Zhu Yan's hand back, his cheeks were so red that he looked at Zhu Yan, and he pursed his lips and said nothing. Looks good, so that the store will grow bigger in the future, and everyone in the world will know that Ah Yan and his family are a couple, and no one can take it away.
With such an idea, Yuan Xiao walks lightly, and Zhu Yan is equally cheerful as Yuan Xiao. He looks at Yuan Xiao's face that is always full of smiles, his eyes are shining with tenderness, He believes that the life between himself and Yuan Xiao will get better and better, and one day Yuan Xiao will forget all the unhappiness in the past, and only remember every moment with him.
On the way, Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao walked a lot of places, but they couldn't find a suitable shop. Fortunately, the two of them had a better attitude and were not discouraged. When it was about to close the stall, the two returned to the stall and helped the old lady and Bai Zhen cleaned up the booth.
"It's okay, this shop can't be said to be found if you look for it. Later, I will ask your grandpa and uncle to go to the town to look for it, and you will definitely find it." After returning home, the old lady was worried that her grandson and grandson could not find it. The store got angry, so he persuaded them while picking beans.
At the same time, Bai Zhen was also persuading, "Ah Yan, your grandma is right, take your time with this thing, it will definitely be fine."
Zhu Yan, who was inexplicably comforted, looked at Yuan Xiao, who was also in a daze, in a daze, and had no choice but to agree, "Well, I know all this, grandma and auntie, don't worry."
Just when the old lady Zhu was about to say something more, she saw Sun Yuzhu standing at the door of her house with a large bundle of firewood on her back and called Yuan Xiao's name. Seeing this, the old lady Zhu said to Yuan Xiao: " Yuan Xiao, go and have a look, Brother Yuzhu probably has something to do with you, if it’s nothing serious, you can let him into our yard and have a good talk, our family doesn’t talk much, besides, you two knew each other before , it’s fine to enter the yard.”
"Well, I understand, grandma." Yuan Xiao glanced at Zhu Yan, and trotted out. Not long after, Yuan Xiao brought Sun Yuzhu into the yard, and said to the old lady Zhu and everyone: "Yu Yan Brother Zhu came to bring us firewood, but he didn't dare to come in due to his shame, so I dragged him in."
Sun Yuzhu was still a little shy when he and Yuan Xiao entered the old Zhu's compound, but when he thought that he was going to marry Tie Dan soon, he tried hard to overcome his shyness, pretended to be very calm, and put himself Putting down the firewood on his back, he smiled and said to everyone in Lao Zhu's family: "My mother said that your family uses firewood to make tofu and soy milk. She asked me to go up the mountain to cut some for you."
The old lady Zhu took over immediately after Sun Yuzhu finished speaking, "Brother Yuzhu, you don't need to be so troublesome, and you should listen to grandma, and you should not go up the mountain in the future. If you go up the mountain, go with Tie Dan, this mountain is not safe! "
Sun Yuzhu knew that Mrs. Zhu was worried about his elder brother's harming him that day, so he hurriedly defended himself: "No problem, grandma, my elder brother has been arrested by the government, and the government seems to have found out that he committed other crimes." He is now being investigated carefully."
"That's good, that's good, then your parents didn't say they want to redeem your elder brother?" The old lady Zhu still said what she cared about most. When Sun Yuzhu and Tie Dan got married, they had a good talk with the old Sun's couple.
Sun Yuzhu shook his head, and said decisively: "My father said that this time it was my elder brother who was wrong, and the family didn't have the money to redeem him, so he told him to think about it in prison."
"Well, that's okay." The old lady Zhu was quite satisfied with the old Sun's couple's behavior this time. After she finished speaking, she continued to pick beans in her hand. Scratched face, although Sun Yuzhu didn't break his body in this cliff fall, his face was scratched by the branches of the old hawthorn tree, and the old lady Zhu was worried that Sun Yuzhu would be thinking about it, so she explained from the side: "Brother Yuzhu, don't worry, the doctor said that day, the scars on your face are light, and the scabs will not leave scars, you don't have to be afraid, all you can do now is to take care of your body, and prepare to have a relationship with my iron egg marriage."
"Well, I understand, grandma." Sun Yuzhu lowered her head after finishing speaking.
Yuan Xiao was worried that Sun Yuzhu would be cramped, so he turned his head to discuss with Zhu Yan, and went up to the old lady Zhu and said, "Grandma, I want to take brother Yuzhu out to talk, do you think it's okay?"
After hearing this, the old lady Zhu waved her hands and let Yuan Xiao take Sun Yuzhu away. Seeing Yuan Xiao and Sun Yuzhu walking out of the yard, she said to Zhu Yan and Bai Zhen: "This child Yuan Xiao is smart, sensible and handsome. In the future, the baby born here will not be wrong, brother Yuzhu is not so outstanding in comparison, but what kind of horse goes with any saddle, brother Yuzhu and iron eggs are more than enough."
"I think it is the same. I am very content with Tie Dan getting married. I really hope that day will come soon." Bai Zhen put down the beans in her hand, and couldn't help but began to look forward to Tie Dan's marriage.
People always say that time is the least expected, and it is true in fact. In a blink of an eye, the marriage between Tie Dan and Sun Yuzhu arrived. On this day, all the men, women and children of Lao Zhu's family got busy, and the family was still in the house. The banquet in the village was as big as when Zhu Yan got married.
Moreover, the people in the village had eaten Zhu Yan's wedding wine before, so they knew that the banquet at Zhu Yan's family was a good one, and more people joined in the fun. When there were more people, Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao also got busy, and the two of them helped the kitchen in a while. Cooking, going out to greet the folks in a while, this busy until the evening.
In the evening, after Zhu Yan took a bath, he lay down on the kang with his eyes closed and rested. After some time, he heard the sound of his house being opened and the sound of footsteps, and he knew that it was Yuan Xiao who came in. Put it on the kang, closed your eyes and said leisurely: "Yuan Xiao, come quickly and let's lie down together for a while, this kang is really hot."
"Ah Yan." Yuan Xiao quickly got on the kang, found a comfortable place to lie down in Zhu Yan's arms, and drew circles on Zhu Yan's chest with his hands, with a soft and sexy voice, "Ah Yan, Are you not farming today?"
