Shi Gun put down his cup, but did not dare to pour tea for Li Xiaonan.
The folding fan in his hand was shaking loudly, and he was obviously very angry. He didn't dare to cause trouble.
Alas, this aunt is really stupid and tough!
Li Xiaonan stood up, picked up the teapot, poured herself some tea, and tapped the table with her finger. "It's time for class."
Gu Yan glanced sideways at her, for a moment, let out a long sigh, leaned forward, and pushed four plates of snacks in front of Li Xiaonan, "Eat a snack first and drink a cup of tea. From the moment you enter the tea house, it will be class. Don't worry.
."
The days and hours after this little girl had her head smashed to death by her two cousins were the days and hours after he opened his eyes after being exposed to a snowstorm and freezing to death.
I wonder if she knows that she is very different from herself.
It’s not appropriate to ask any more questions for the time being. This little girl looks dumbfounded. She is much more petty than Luxiu!
When Li Xiaonan heard what Gu Yan said, counting from the moment she entered the tea house, she hummed, carefully looked at the four plates of snacks, and chose a piece of mung bean cake.
Seeing Li Xiaonan choose mung bean cake, Gu Yan's eyebrows twitched slightly, Lu Xiu likes to eat mung bean cake the most.
"How does it taste?" Gu Yan asked after watching Li Xiaonan eat half a piece.
"It's delicious, neither sweet nor greasy." Li Xiaonan took a sip of tea.
All the pastries she has eaten here are so sweet and oily that they stick to your tongue!
This mung bean cake is so delicious!
"This is made by the dim sum room in our house. This is not bad, you can try it." Gu Yan pointed to a plate of money cakes.
Li Xiaonan weighed a piece and put it in her mouth.
"Is it delicious?" Gu Yan stared at Li Xiaonan.
"It's not delicious." Li Xiaonan shook her head, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.
Gu Yan trailed off and said "oh."
This little girl has exactly the same taste as Luxiu.
"Have you prepared your preserved eggs? Have you found a shop?" Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan, who was picking up another piece of mung bean cake, and asked with a smile.
"We've found it. It's on the street out of Xuyuan Street, next to Huayu Tower. The old man of the Zhang family liked it. My uncle said it's a good place, and the rental price of the shop is also very reasonable." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
.
"When will it open?" Gu Yan then asked.
"The day after tomorrow is the day when the lobby uncle is looking for someone to settle accounts. Don't come to me for lessons the day after tomorrow. I want help with settling accounts and so on. I don't have time." Li Xiaonan said smoothly.
"Your eldest sister asked you to take care of the store's accounts?" Gu Yan asked with concern.
"That's what the eldest sister thought. The lobby uncle couldn't talk it through. The lobby uncle said that the two companies were doing business together and it was best to hire someone from outside to take care of the accounts. The eldest sister and Sister-in-law Yin went to the dental shop to find an accounting room.
, an hour passes every day, and it costs a fortune a month, and the eldest sister is very distressed!"
After Li Xiaonan finished eating the mung bean cake, she hesitated between the other two plates.
"This is delicious." Gu Yan pointed to the milk cake.
Li Xiaonan picked up a piece and took a bite. It was indeed delicious.
"Your lobby uncle is also moving to Pingjiang City?" Gu Yan continued to chat.
"Well, I bought a house and am in the process of repairing it. Just one street over there and then the next." Li Xiaonan stretched out her arm and pointed.
"You, uncle from the lobby, why do you want to move to Pingjiang City? It's not far or close to your home."
The four words "neither far nor near" are quite meaningful as Gu Yan said.
Li Xiaonan raised her head and glanced at him, "I said it was to take care of my brother's studies."
"Say yes?" Gu Yan leaned forward slightly.
"My brother is studying. It's enough to have me, the eldest sister, the second sister, and the third sister. I don't need the uncle.
"But the third sister's marriage is all handled by the uncle in charge. In our family's preserved egg and salted egg business, it is the uncle in charge who makes the decision.
"Uncle Datang's family moved to Pingjiang City. With my brother as a scholar and the Hong family as my in-laws, it will definitely be better than a black eye."
Li Xiaonan weighed another piece of milk cake.
"Is this all your uncle's plan?" Gu Yan smiled half-heartedly.
"Not just these, what else is there? He wants to take advantage of you, can he do it? You are much smarter than him, and you have so many people." Li Xiaonan made a circle with her fingers.
Gu Yan felt a little choked by Li Xiaonan's direct words.
"You little girl!"
Li Xiaonan rolled her eyes at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud, "That uncle of yours is a nice guy, and that guy of yours is also nice."
"Have you asked about it?" Li Xiaonan looked at Gu Yan.
"Your lobbyist has two shops in Linhai Town. One sells daily necessities from overseas. It sells various items from overseas to various places. The other lacquerware shop sells lacquerware from all over the world overseas.
.
"The lacquerware shop was newly opened by your uncle in the lobby." Gu Yan did not directly answer Li Xiaonan's question.
"It's quite profitable?" Li Xiaonan was a little surprised. The businesses in the lobby uncle's house sounded like big business.
"Well, the business is very big and very profitable." Gu Yan glanced sideways at Li Xiaonan.
"No wonder." Li Xiaonan sighed.
"What's the wonder?" Gu Yan asked.
"No wonder I can spend four to five hundred silver to buy a dowry for Third Sister." Li Xiaonan answered casually and looked at the snacks on the plate. There were still many, but she was already full.
"How much betrothal gift did the Hong family give? Four to five hundred taels?" Gu Yan asked clearly.
"Yeah." Li Xiaonan nodded.
"That's good. Your third sister is very lucky." Gu Yan leaned back on the chair.
"Are you still going to class?" Li Xiaonan poured another cup of tea.
This tea has a sweet aftertaste and is a rare good tea.
"Someone recommended an accountant to me and said he was very good at counting. Next time I bring him over, you can see for me whether he is really good at counting." Gu Yan said with a smile.
"Okay, let's talk about math today." Li Xiaonan tapped her fingers on the table, signaling Gu Yan to start class.
………………………………
The Li sisters got busy the day before the shop opened.
Early in the morning the day before, Li Yuzhu and Sister-in-law Yin rushed to the workshop to take a final look at the first batch of preserved and salted eggs, and loaded them one by one on the cart to be transported to the shop in the city.
Li Jinzhu took Li Yinzhu and Li Xiaonan to scrub everywhere in the shop.
Sister-in-law Yin said that although preserved eggs and salted eggs have shells, they are still edible, but wherever food is sold, the cleaner the better.
Li Jinzhu and Li Yinzhu carefully mopped it over and over again, wiping it one place after another. The small facade couldn't be any cleaner.
In the evening, Sister-in-law Yin followed the cart filled with preserved eggs and salted eggs to the door of the shop. She directed the porter to carefully carry the preserved eggs and salted eggs into the shop.
Sister-in-law Yin and Li Jinzhu started in front of the shop and looked over it once and for all. They were all right. Li Jinzhu took Li Yinzhu and wiped it one last time before locking it up and going back to Cai Lian Lane, just waiting for the next day.
