"Once upon a time, there was a young monk in the temple. He ran into the courtyard in the middle of the night with a long bamboo pole and waved and beat it at the night sky. This sound alarmed the old monk, who shouted and asked: "Why don't you go to bed in the middle of the night? What are you doing?" The young monk was frightened and mustered up the courage to reply: "Master, I want the stars in the sky, but no matter how hard I try, I just can't get them down..." Upon hearing this, the old monk became furious and cursed. Said: "You are stupid, how can you hit me standing in that place...you don't know how to climb up to the roof and hit me!" Then the old monk climbed up to the roof and waved the stick vigorously..."
"This old monk is too stupid!" the old lady laughed.
Mrs. Sun also laughed so hard that she wiped away her tears and said, "I thought the old monk was going to scold the young monk, but I didn't expect that I would go up to the roof!"
The maid standing on one side was trying her best to hold back her laughter, but she still burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Lin Ziyi arrived just in time and was stunned when he saw this scene!
Seeing Lin Ziyi coming, Mrs. Sun quickly waved her hand.
"Zi Yi is here, come here, let Miss Xia tell that joke again!"
Lin Ziyi walked over with a strange expression on his face and saw the old lady's face was rosy and she became energetic.
Ever since Lin Ziyi's father passed away, the old lady hadn't smiled like this for a long time.
Lin Ziyi's brows relaxed, and his heart returned to his stomach. It seemed that his worries were unnecessary.
"Zi Yi, come here at this hour, is there something wrong?" the old lady asked.
"Grandma, my grandson wants to make it clearer about the 10,000 taels of silver I took away this morning to avoid misunderstandings," Lin Ziyi said.
The old lady looked at Mrs. Sun and asked, "What's going on?"
Sun felt blessed and replied: "This morning, the general took away 10,000 taels of silver notes from the warehouse. It was not a big deal, so he didn't tell the old lady. Seeing how Zi Yi was in such a hurry. Come, I guess you are afraid that we will misunderstand Miss Xia."
The old lady was not a stingy person, on the contrary, she was very generous. Otherwise, why would she agree to Lin Ziyi emptying his warehouses and investing in military supplies every time there was a war?
However, after hearing what Sun said, the old lady became confused. What would a woman do with so many banknotes?
You know, ten thousand taels is not a small amount of money!
Thinking of this, the old lady asked seriously: "Jin'er, what did you use these ten thousand taels of silver for?"
"Back to the old lady, it's used to open a restaurant." Xia Jin said truthfully.
After hearing this, the old lady shook her hand and shouted toward the door: "Housekeeper Mo, come in."
Butler Mo walked in, looked at Lin Ziyi cautiously, then looked at Xia Jin, and said to himself: Isn't the old lady angry because of the banknotes?
Just when I was worried, I heard the old lady say: "Get another 10,000 taels of silver notes!"
"ah?"
"Ah, what, go quickly! Ten thousand taels of silver is not enough to open a restaurant! You have to prepare twenty thousand taels at least!" the old lady said seriously and solemnly.
Xia Jin quickly waved her hands and said, "That's enough!"
"Just take it. I will eat at your restaurant every day from now on. You have to save a seat for me. I will also go on the opening day when the ribbon is cut!" the old lady's eyes sparkled.
When she was young, the old lady always wanted to open a store, but she couldn't do it due to various reasons. But people are like this. The more things they fail to accomplish, the more they want to do it later, and it may even develop into an obsession.
In his later years, the old lady finally had time, but she was unable to do so.
She thought about asking Sun to open a store, but Sun's personality was not suitable for business and he had no great ambitions.
Needless to say, Lin Ziyi spent all day either training or training troops, or going out to fight.
Now when she heard that Xia Jin was going to open a restaurant, of course she agreed without saying a word and gave her full support.
After just eating the assorted fresh noodles made by Xia Jin, the old lady began to think in her heart that she must marry such a good woman!
Deep down in my heart, I already regard Xia Jin as my granddaughter-in-law, so naturally I won't be stingy with the money.
Slave status, status, and being a good match, none of it seems important now!
People are the most important!
She thinks she has a good eye for people, and Xia Jin must be a good girl!
Seeing the old lady's insistence, Lin Ziyi coughed slightly and said, "Grandma has good intentions, so don't refuse."
The general said so, Xia Jin had no choice but to feel blessed and said: "Thank you, old lady!"
After saying goodbye, Xia Jin and Lin Ziyi left the general's mansion together. Lin Ziyi sent her back to the house. Before leaving, she said to Xia Jin:
"Grandma hasn't been as happy as today for a long time, thank you."
Xia Jin stood at the door, watching him leave on horseback... It seemed that she had opened a blind box and drawn a hidden sum!
This financial sponsor is so good! And the old lady. Would you like to be so generous and spend money like water?
What kind of rich family is this?
The next day, early in the morning, Xia Jin went to Desheng Building and handed the banknote to Qin Haoou.
"The money you paid before will be returned to you."
Qin Hao'ou asked in confusion: "Master, where did you get the banknote?"
"The general gave it to me," she said calmly.
"He gave it to me..." Qin Hao'ou curled his lips, "I should respect my master, so I don't need him to give it to me. I don't want it!" He didn't pick it up.
Just as Xia Jin was about to persuade, there was a noise from downstairs.
"Chef Qin, when are you going to pay me the money you owe me!"
Xia Jin looked at Qin Haoou, "What's going on?"
Qin Hao'ou lowered his head and said in a low voice: "God damn Gao Dafu, he didn't come sooner or later, but he came to demand the debt when the master was here. Now I'm so embarrassed..."
"Bang!" The sound of tables and chairs being smashed came from below.
Xia Jin opened the door and walked out. Qin Haoou hurriedly chased after him and stopped him: "Master, just sit here and rest. I will take care of this little matter myself!"
"Qin Hao'ou, I saw you!" A voice shouted angrily from downstairs.
Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Qin Haoou had no choice but to go downstairs. He saw a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears walking over with his hands behind his back and a big belly.
"Recently, your Desheng Building has been very popular. You also took over the order for the General's birthday banquet. You must have made a lot of money, right?"
Qin Hao'ou quickly walked a few steps to him, cupped his hands, and said with a smile: "Boss Gao, there are few visitors, so come upstairs and sit down!"
"Don't try to get too close to me. I'm here to remind you that you still have half a month. If you don't pay back the money after half a month, Desheng Building and your house will both be high.
So rich!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly, kicked over a bench, turned around and walked out.
Xia Jin walked downstairs, looked at Qin Haoou seriously, and said, "Tell me what's going on!" This chapter has been completed!
