Zuo Xiaotang wrinkled his delicate eyebrows, "You ate a big bowl for dinner and you're hungry so quickly?"
Zhao Yazhi said confidently, "I'm still growing, so it's normal for me to digest quickly."
"It sounds like I'm very big. I'm only one year and two months older than you."
Yun Mo interrupted the quarrel between the two with a chuckle, "There is a store selling mutton kebabs nearby. Let me treat you to some."
As soon as they heard about mutton kebabs, Zuo Xiaotang and Zhao Yazhi immediately looked at Yun Mo, their eyes as bright as light bulbs.
"Okay, okay, I like eating kebabs the most."
"Then let's go."
It was around 8:30 in the evening, which was the time for late-night snacks. A large number of mutton skewers were being grilled on the red charcoal stove. The unique aroma of grilled mutton could be smelled throughout the street.
A simple tent was set up with plastic sheeting at the entrance of the skewers shop, and there were already three tables of diners sitting in the tent.
Yun Mo and the other three found a seat and sat down. The waiter came over with tea and menus to take orders.
Barbecue these days is not as rich and varied as later generations. The menu is written by hand and does not exceed ten dishes in total.
Yunmo had just had dinner and was still not hungry, so she ordered a plate of spiced peanuts to relieve her boredom.
Zhao Yazhi ordered a lot, including lamb, mutton chops, lamb tripe and intestines, everything on the menu.
Zuo Xiaotang complained that she ordered too much and ordered a mutton soup.
The kebabs were freshly grilled and were not served quickly. Instead, peanuts and mutton soup were served first.
The three of them ate peanuts and drank mutton soup, which was very pleasant.
After finishing a bowl of mutton soup, Zhao Yazhi smiled and explained the reason for his visit, "Yun Mo, we came here because we have good news to tell you."
Zuo Xiaotang took over, "My uncle has helped you find a new factory site."
Yun Mo was overjoyed, "So fast?"
"Of course, if you can't even do this well, then my father's hard work all these years has been in vain. The place is just over Hehua Street. It used to be a match factory. The match factory closed down last year and owed a lot of debts that have not been settled. Then
The factory building was sealed as soon as we were there, and we originally planned to sell it this year, and the money from the sale would be used to pay off debts and settle workers’ wages.”
Although she didn't know how much the factory was going to be sold for, she definitely couldn't afford it with her current ability.
Seeing Yun Mo's dilemma, Zhao Yazhi continued: "Don't worry, my dad said that the match factory may not be able to sell it after a year and a half, so we can rent it to you first.
You go check out the place tomorrow, and if you think it's suitable, go directly to negotiate a lease with the person in charge of the bank. This match factory owes hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans to the bank, and the factory building is now considered an asset of the bank."
"Okay, Sister Zhao, Sister Xiaotang, thank you very much."
Zhao Yazhi looked at her, "We should thank you. If it weren't for your timely rescue, my grandma might have died... Anyway, compared with your life-saving kindness, this is nothing."
Zuo Xiaotang also spoke up, "Even without uncle's help, you can definitely find a suitable factory."
"Maybe it can be found, but it won't be so fast or smoothly." Yun Mo looked at the two of them sincerely, "This is probably fate."
Zhao Yazhi picked up the tea cup and said, "Then let's drink for fate."
"cheers!"
Kebabs are served one after another on the table. Under the orange light, the freshly grilled lamb skewers are red in color. Seasoning powder is evenly sprinkled on the meat pieces. The air is filled with the rich and attractive aroma of cumin powder.
Even Yun Mo, who was not hungry, was so greedy that she moved her index finger.
“It smells so good and delicious!”
Zhao Yazhi couldn't wait to pick up a bunch. His teeth were so burned that he couldn't bear to spit it out.
Seeing that the two of them were enjoying their meal, Yunmo also picked a bunch. One thing she said was that the roasted lamb tasted really good, just like XJ roasted lamb.
After a while, lamb loin, lamb chops, lamb tripe and other dishes were also served on the table, and the three of them ate with gusto.
"daughter in law."
Seeing the man appearing out of nowhere, Yun Mo was so surprised that she almost dropped the mutton skewers in her hand, "Why are you here?"
"Seeing that you haven't come back yet, I'm worried."
Zhao Yazhi greeted Lingchuan warmly and sat down to eat together.
"Brother Ling, how did you know we were eating mutton skewers here?"
Compared with Zhao Yazhi's relaxed and comfortable attitude, Lingchuan seemed much more reserved, "I found it from several nearby snack bars."
"How do you know we are eating? What if we went to drink tea or go shopping?"
Lingchuan thought about it seriously, "I guess you like to eat more when you are on the train."
"..."
"puff!"
Zhao Yazhi was so depressed that even the mutton skewers no longer tasted good, and Zuo Xiaotang burst out laughing.
"Look, your image of a delicious mouth has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!"
Yun Mo couldn't help but laugh and stuffed a bunch of mutton into Lingchuan's hand, "Eat more meat and talk less."
"Um."
Zhao Yazhi was a little unconvinced, "Brother Ling, I don't like eating as much as you said, and Yun Mo also ate a lot when we were on the train. You can't just bully me because Yun Mo is your wife, right?"
Lingchuan glanced at her and said nothing.
"Brother Ling, am I right?"
"Momo told me to eat more meat and talk less." After a pause, she added, "Momo didn't eat as much as you did on the train."
Zhao Yazhi: "..."
Zuo Xiaotang laughed so hard that his shoulders shook, and even Yun Mo couldn't laugh or cry.
"You guys, you gang up to bully me!"
Seeing that Zhao Yazhi was so angry, Yun Mo hurriedly held back her laughter and comforted her, "Sister Zhao, it's a blessing to be able to eat."
Zuo Xiaotang answered, "Yes, you can see that the pigs are eating in vain and are fat and round. You will be blessed just by looking at them."
If looks could kill, Zuo Xiaotang would have been separated from her body and head at this moment.
"If you can't speak, you don't have to speak. I don't lack a sister."
Seeing that Zhao Yazhi was really annoyed, Zuo Xiaotang immediately begged for mercy, "Okay, I was wrong. Let's do this. I'll pay for today's meal. You can have whatever you want."
Without saying a word, Zhao Yazhi turned around and called the waiter, "10 more skewers of roasted lamb, 10 skewers of roasted lamb chops, 10 skewers of roasted lamb loins..."
Zuo Xiaotang was so frightened that he almost reached out and covered Zhao Yazhi's mouth, "Are you crazy? Can you finish all the food you ordered?"
"If you can't finish it, I can pack it for my eldest cousin and second cousin to eat."
"...mashed garlic!"
After eating a meal of skewers, the relationship between the three of them became much closer.
Zhao Yazhi and Zuo Xiaotang held Yun Mo's arms, one on the left and the other on the right. Ling Chuan carried the packed skewers and followed behind the three of them like bodyguards.
"Yunmo, do you want us to pick you up tomorrow?"
"No, we can just take a taxi there."
"Okay then, we'll wait for you at the entrance of the match factory at 10 o'clock."
"Um."
After watching Zhao Yazhi and Zuo Xiaotang's car drive away, Yun Mo and Ling Chuan turned around and headed back towards the winery guest house.
"Daughter-in-law, do you want to go shopping with Miss Zhao and the others tomorrow?"
Lingchuan arrived late and didn't know about the match factory.
