He lowered his head and coughed slightly, "Girl, can you tell me what words you want to write?"
Shen Qingqing came to her senses and quickly asked him to enter the store, "Write the words 'Hundred Bowls of Noodles House' to make a plaque for the new store. It should be more grand in style. There are no other requirements. I wonder if Mr. Zhang is willing to help?"
"Hundred Bowl Noodle House, this name is very catchy, and the business will definitely be prosperous in the future." Zhang Chengyi rolled up his sleeves, nodded to the shop owner and said, "Can you please go get the pen and paper?"
When the boss knew that it was done, he happily ran to the backyard to get something.
Shen Qingqing expressed her gratitude to him with a smile, and secretly made a small calculation: Zhang Tong's life is precious. If she avoids this disaster, she will have smooth sailing in the future. If she can form a good relationship, she can hug him.
The golden thighs are pretty good too.
While he was thinking wildly, Zhang Chengyi had already started to write. When the tip of the pen came down, the big black characters flowed and rolled among the white rice paper like flowing water. The pen was strong and full of energy.
Shen Qingqing, a layman, gave it a thumbs up when he read it, "Young Master Zhang's writing is wonderful. I must take good care of it. It may become a priceless treasure in the future!"
Zhang Chengyi's cheeks turned red when he heard this, and he shook his head and said, "Young lady, you are so complimentary. My knowledge is still far behind."
"Zhang Tongsheng, please don't be modest. Who in Stone Town doesn't know that you have good handwriting and profound knowledge?" The shop owner couldn't help but interrupt.
Shen Qingqing nodded in agreement and took out her wallet, "Boss, how much is the retouching fee for calligraphers in our store? I would like to have a reference."
Without waiting for the boss to answer, Zhang Chengyi waved his hand and said: "The writing fee is waived. It's just a little effort. If the girl feels embarrassed, just give me a bowl of noodles when the noodle shop opens tomorrow."
Shen Qingqing was interested in making him a friend and simply agreed. Before leaving, she sent him to the door of the store and reminded him in a low voice: "Young Master, you must be careful about the people around you during this period and be careful of villains."
Zhang Chengyi was stunned and was about to ask, but saw that Shen Qingqing had already turned around and returned to the store, continuing to chat and laugh with the store owner. What he said just now seemed to be his imagination.
He looked at the streets illuminated by the sun and secretly took these words to heart.
It usually takes about ten days to make a plaque, but Shen Qingqing couldn't wait any longer, so she simply paid more money and agreed with the boss to pick it up in three days.
After dealing with the plaque, Shen Qingqing came to the noodle shop to clean up. The case of Wang Laicai's murder of his brother had been decided. Originally, he was going to be sentenced to death, but Mr. Wang and his wife were reluctant and cried to plead for him. The county magistrate saw that the couple was sincere.
It's pitiful that he showed mercy outside the law and was only sentenced to exile in the end.
After the trial, Mr. and Mrs. Wang came back to pack up and return to their hometown. The tables, chairs, benches and other items in the store were basically untouched, and even the unused flour was thrown away in the kitchen.
Shen Qingqing put everything in place, did a thorough cleaning inside and out, and finally climbed the ladder to remove the plaque.
The owner of the grocery store next to her raised his head and spoke to her: "Girl, are you going to keep these two stores for your own use, or are you going to sell them?"
Shen Qingqing made a move with her hands, looked at him condescendingly, with an interesting smile on her lips, "What? Do you want to buy it?"
"Yes, when Lao Wangtou was sold to you, I only paid 20 taels of silver. Now I am willing to pay 40 taels to buy it. You made twenty taels in vain without doing anything. Do you want to consider it?"
"I think you dreamed of marrying a wife - what a beautiful idea!" Shen Qingqing roughly tore off the plaque and threw it down.
If you want to buy a shop worth 100 taels for 40 taels, but you still act like you're giving alms, isn't this fooling her into thinking she's a fool?
With a "clang" sound, the thick plaque landed close to the boss's toes, which frightened him so much that he rushed to the door of his store.
"If you don't want to sell, forget it. As for throwing things at people? With your bad temper, you won't be able to do business in the long run."
Shen Qingqing jumped down from the ladder and rolled her eyes at him while picking up the plaque, "I don't know if my business will last long, but your store will be closed down within ten days. If you don't believe me, we'll just wait and see!"
The boss put his hands on his hips and said, "We'll see, who's afraid of you?"
He has been running a store in Stone Town for more than ten years, but he still can't beat a little girl who appears out of nowhere?
Moreover, Wang Laiyun, Lao Wangtou's nephew, was still here last night to inquire about information and wanted to take the noodle shop back. When the new store opens, he will definitely call Wang Laiyun over and make a big fuss.
If you don't make me happy, then you can't even think about being comfortable!
In the following time, Shen Qingqing rented an oxcart from a car dealer to transport things back and forth; she also picked a lot of fresh wild mushrooms in the mountains and made different mushroom oils according to the types; she also purchased a batch of flour, vegetables
Seed oil and various materials.
Three days passed by. On the opening day of the noodle shop, Shen Qingqing got up early to dress up and put on brand new clothes. She wore a red pomegranate skirt with large plum blossoms embroidered on the skirt, cuffs and hem, which were as gorgeous as haze.
.
Her long black hair was tied into a bun with a small red velvet flower in the bun. There was no other decoration. She also wore makeup on her face, her eyebrows were as slender as willows, and her lips were a little cherry red.
Her complexion was as white as snow.
A pair of pink and phoenix eyes, outlined with such heavy makeup, become even more charming and charming, and the eyes are full of magnificence, as if to draw away the soul of the person.
As soon as they went out, the four boys looked at Shen Qingqing like this and were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
"Wow, is this still Xuebao's mother?"
Meng Qixue threw herself into Shen Qingqing's arms with gleaming eyes, touching the flowers on her skirt with her little paws, and rainbow farts kept popping out.
"Mom, your new dress is so beautiful!"
"My mother's eyes are so beautiful too!"
"Mom, your mouth is so red. Did you eat something secretly?"
Shen Qingqing knelt down, smiled and rubbed her forehead, "Mom didn't eat secretly, she just got lip grease. You will know when you grow up."
"Come on, Mom will take you to change into new clothes. Feng'er, Yun'er, Yu'er, you guys too, come with Mom."
She was too busy during this period, and the cloth she bought had just been laid out and had not been made yet. In order to let the children wear new clothes on the opening day of the new store, she went to the ready-made clothing store and bought a few sets.
Both girls are wearing red skirts, and are tied with red headbands. The bright red color makes their faces look brighter, making them extra festive. Just looking at them makes me want to rub them.
The boy is wearing a sapphire blue shirt, his hair is tied up, and he is tied up with a belt. Not to mention he is very energetic.
Aunt He, who came to help, looked at the energetic and festive people, and was stunned for a long time without daring to come in. "Oh, I thought I went to the wrong house. You ladies are all dressed up beautifully today. It feels like the Chinese New Year."
It’s time!”
"Isn't the opening of a new store just like celebrating the New Year?"
Shen Qingqing responded with a smile and pointed to the east room, "There is also some clothes on the bed. I bought them specially for you. Go and try to see if they fit." This chapter has been completed!
