When the little ones returned to the store after advertising, Old Man Shu and others had almost finished cleaning up. Before they even entered the door, Yan Yan was shocked by the brand-new look of the small restaurant.
Old Man Shu worked meticulously, cleaning the entire store from inside to outside, top to bottom, even the cracks in the bricks, and the cleaning was cleaner than the face of a wealthy lady in the city who had put facial grease on it.
The sunlight fell into the house through the newly painted doors and windows, illuminating the floor, tables and chairs inside the house, making them look like bronze mirrors and reflect light.
After entering the house, the most eye-catching thing is the poster on the wall on the left. Red shrimps, green kelp, yellow steamed eggs... all the dishes I have eaten several times before are painted on them.
The colors of red, green, and red complement each other, which is so alluring.
Shu Mingxin wiped off the remaining ink stains on his body and asked Xiaotuanzi for credit with a smile: "How was it? Did uncle draw the effect you wanted?"
Xiaotuanzi swallowed in vain and said nothing. He gave him a thumbs up first and said, "Uncle Six is so awesome. The paintings are just like the real thing. I want to lie down and take a bite!"
Shu Mingxin was satisfied, raised his head and laughed heartily.
Not to be outdone, Shu Mingyi picked up the dumplings and carried her to the brand new round table, "This is the table I made based on the picture. Do you like it or not?"
Xiaotuanzi jumped out of his arms, stretched out his fat arms, grabbed the small table on the top of the table and turned it hard. The small table immediately rotated smoothly and steadily.
"Wow, you can really turn around. Second uncle, you are so awesome!"
She just suddenly thought of a kind of table that was particularly suitable for multiple people to eat, so she casually said a few words to her second uncle. She didn't expect that her second uncle actually made it, and it was so well done!
Xiaotuanzi clapped his hands excitedly, looked around the order of tables and chairs in the store, and said thoughtfully: "We can put this table on the far right, and when the rich bosses come, let them sit there!"
"I'm afraid it's not enough to just have a good table. Rich people are very particular about it. It's best to have this table separated by itself. Our store is not big, so it's not practical to have a separate partition..."
Shu Mingyi also touched his chin and started thinking, "Yes! My boss has a screen at his house, I'll move it here.
When you need it, place it around the table and it will become a small compartment. When you don't need it, put it away, which is convenient and does not take up space.
Gee, I’m so smart!”
Shu Mingyi praised himself, rubbed Xiaotuanzi's head, and ran away happily.
When Mrs. Shu came in carrying large and small bags, she happened to see him running out of the house. She asked everyone in the house doubtfully: "What's wrong with him? He ran out when it was time to eat."
"He took the screen, don't care about him." Old Man Shu took the things in her hand and couldn't wait to drag her into the kitchen, "I've cleaned up the kitchen for you, see if you're satisfied with it."
Walking through the front store and walking to the back, the layout of the backyard is also completely new.
The mud floors in the courtyard are all paved with stone slabs so that you won't step on the mud when it's windy or rainy.
A well was dug in the place where vegetables were originally grown, and a vegetable washing pool and drainage outlet were specially built with blue bricks next to the well to facilitate daily scrubbing.
The empty kitchen was filled with all kinds of kitchen utensils. There were three custom-made iron pots for cooking, four or five casseroles, and earthenware pots.
The top of the stove was also covered with the stone slab that Mrs. Shu wanted. After wiping it with a cloth, it was so clean that people could be seen.
Looking at the bright kitchen, Mrs. Shu was in a very good mood. She rolled up her sleeves and said, "We won't go back at noon today. We will eat here. We just want to try out the stove here."
Old man Shu stroked his beard and said, "That's good, but we haven't bought any food yet. What can we eat?"
"Go to the market now and buy a lot of meat. I want to eat three bowls of rice!" Qingbai raised his hand and spoke.
Mrs. Sun smiled and pinched his face, "Look at the flesh on your face. It's about to droop. Are you still going to eat?"
"Stop talking about him, look back at the other one." Yang turned her head and looked at the villain outside the door, unable to hold back her laughter.
Everyone looked back and saw that Qingfeng had silently carried the bamboo basket on his back. Seeing everyone stretching their heads to look at him, Xiao Qingfeng scratched his face innocently, "Aren't you going out to buy groceries? Let's go!"
Well, this guy is really a man of action.
Mrs. Shu, dumbfounded, pulled him back and said, "It's getting late. I'm afraid it's too late to go shopping now. Let's eat something to fill our stomach first, and then go shopping for vegetables and meat in the afternoon."
I just wanted to see if there are any good things in the market. I might be able to use them when the restaurant opens tomorrow.
"Okay." Qing Feng put down the backpack reluctantly.
At noon, the family ate hand-made noodles, and Hululu made two more big pots. Mrs. Shu said she couldn't afford them.
After eating, Qingfeng welded the basket on his back again before he could even wash the bowls.
Qingbai thought his basket was too small, so he turned around and picked up a bigger one. When he took a closer look, he saw that the big bamboo basket had two legs, and no one could even see it.
Yan Yan deliberately leaned down by the sink and washed her face. She called it a wash to help her find good products.
Old Mrs. Shu had already counted the money, but seeing their posture, she was afraid that the money was not enough, so she quickly took two more silver coins.
Qingsong squatted melancholy at the door of the store and sighed. The prodigal son is about to start prodigal again. Oh, it's really a headache.
When they arrived at the market, the family didn't take any detours and went straight to the stall with the best selection of goods.
The stall owner was overjoyed to see such a big showdown. The big customer was here, and he had to seize the opportunity to make a fortune!
"Auntie, we are here to buy vegetables. Take a look at these clams. They were just harvested this morning. They are still alive. Do you want to weigh them?"
Mrs. Shu shook her head, "Don't ask me, I don't know the goods, ask her."
The stall owner looked down at the position of her finger, eh? The old man didn't know the goods, so he sent a child? There is something wrong with this family's brain.
But when it comes to business, he likes customers who are mentally ill. They are smart people who know how to choose and like to negotiate prices. He is not willing to entertain them.
Wanting to understand this, the stall owner smiled even brighter and said, "Girl, do you think the shrimps in this bucket are big? Do you want to weigh two kilograms and try them?"
Xiaotuanzi shook his head without even looking at it, "No, the shrimps will die easily. It will be better to buy fresh ones tomorrow."
The stall owner looked at her and said, "Tsk, you know a lot. Why don't you buy some kelp? This one won't hurt."
The kelp is placed next to the shrimp bucket. There are many barcodes together. It looks green and wet with water on it. It must have been freshly caught. It is very fresh.
Xiaotuanzi nodded, showing a leadership style, "Buy it, you can buy more of this, dry it back and put it away and you can eat it for a long time."
Mrs. Shu waved her hand, "Then let's buy fifty pounds first."
"Fifty pounds?" The stall owner cheered up. Not only was this family mentally ill, but they were also short of money! He liked it!
"Girl, do you want this? Seaweed is a good thing. The soup is especially delicious, but it's a bit expensive."
The boss took out the bamboo basket behind him and placed a pile of green and purple vegetable leaves in it. It was not much, and it weighed only three or four kilograms with water.
