After resting at home for a few days, Mr. and Mrs. Nangong began to work on their previous plan: today is the day when their small restaurant will open. ∈♀,
As planned before, they want to reintegrate into today's earth society: find a job to support their family, and live a stable life without attracting attention. This is the happiest life in their minds.
The two of them had already found a store for sale at the corner of the street and made most of the preparations to open a small restaurant. However, due to many things that happened later, they delayed things while following Hao Ren.
Now that everything is settled at home, the couple is getting busy. Nangong Wuyue and Nangong Sanba naturally followed happily to help prepare for the opening, while the others were idle at home, so they went over to help clean up.
thing.
The store is small and located at the corner of the street. It was originally a renovated bungalow shop. Before the renovation, the structure of the house included a single room for the shop owner to rest and a relatively spacious place for placing counters and shelves. Later, the original owner here
A simple room built with a colored steel structure was connected to the front of the house, which greatly expanded its space. The Nangong couple fell in love with this store precisely because of its structure: the place where the counter was originally placed can be used as a store.
The kitchen and the color steel room can be reserved for diners, so it is perfect for opening a small restaurant.
Nangong Wudi came to this newly rented store early and sighed: "I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to realize this wish... A hundred years ago, when Elsa and I first lived in seclusion, we thought about it.
When will the world be peaceful? It would be nice to find a peaceful place to open a small shop. It would be nice to sell some groceries or some porridge and rice. But I didn’t expect that I would be taken to another world for a hundred years in a daze... It was not easy to come back. This wish turned out to be the opposite.
It’s come true.”
Nangong Sanba looked at his father in surprise: "So dad, you had this dream back then?"
"I had two dreams back then. The first one was to become the best master in the world. To eliminate demons, defend the law and help world peace. The second dream was to open a small shop," Nangong Wudi said seriously, "later I met your mother, and I only have the second dream.
A goal.”
Hao Ren was listening and thought to himself that not only did his name have a personality, he also had a personality when he made the vow. Do you think there is some connection between the two wishes?
Lily yelled next to her: "Uncle, you speak quite like a modern person now, don't you use the self-titled "I" anymore?"
Speaking of which, Lily's age is not necessarily much younger than Nangong Wudi's. But Husky is a guy with a sharp mind, and he comes up with ideas as soon as he comes up with them. In addition, the gang in Hao Ren's family can drive people crazy if they really talk about their seniority.
So no one cared about her yelling.
Nangong Wudi smiled: "Sometimes I still have to bring back my old habits when talking, but I change them very quickly. But then again, the world has changed so much... Now I just talk to people about daily things.
There was no problem at the time, but once you talk about rare words, you really can’t understand them. I’m ashamed to say that I can’t even read the novels you wrote. Even if I know the simplified Chinese characters, I can’t recognize the words you use in modern times... Your book
What kind of person is Li Na?"
Before Nangong Wudi could finish his sentence, he was quickly interrupted by Lily's whimper. The husky girl jumped more than one meter high as if someone had stepped on her tail, but no matter how loud her whimpering sound was, it didn't stop Wudi.
The first half of the uncle's words caused everyone in the crowd to look at Lily with strange eyes. Hao Ren even subconsciously kept a distance of more than two meters from the husky spirit: "Lily... why is the scope of your works getting bigger and bigger?"
Extensive..."
"Can you please stop making trouble!" Lily's eyes were rounded with anxiety. "I just need it for the plot! I'll write about this topic soon!"
This time, even Nangong Sanba followed and stepped back three meters: "Why do I get more and more dangerous the more I hear it?"
Lily stared at Hao Ren and then at Nangong Sanba, then put her hands on her hips and said, "Do you believe that the leading male lead and the second leading male lead in my next book will be you two?!"
Hao Ren and Nangong Sanba immediately said that Mr. Husky has immeasurable merits and a broad mind, and he will definitely not get into trouble with two mere straight men. Nangong Wudi remained confused, lowering his head to discuss with his wife: "Elsa, you know...
…”
"Dad! Stop asking!" Nangong Wuyue shouted at the top of his lungs, then turned and walked towards the store. "Hurry up and help pack things!"
A few days ago, Hao Ren had helped Nangong and his wife hire a decorator to slightly modify the structure of the store. He also installed essential things such as stoves and freezers, and the materials needed on the first day of opening were also installed.
It was all prepared yesterday, and everyone came here today mainly to set up tables to join in the fun and prepare for the opening. Originally, the Nangong couple only planned to sell breakfast, but after seeing the situation of the store, they decided to open one
It’s a serious restaurant, so today’s opening time is set at noon. Seeing that it’s already late, the couple didn’t waste time and started working quickly. Lily jumped to the middle of the room and started jumping up and down to give directions: “Hurry up.
Hurry! The landlord and Sanba go clear the table! Bat, you go help auntie prepare the side dishes! May go clean the glass! Big guy...big guy, you can't move around in here, go outside to greet the guests, I ran yesterday
I told the neighbors about the news, and everyone said they would come to support it... Oh, by the way, firecrackers, firecrackers, I want to set off firecrackers!"
While Hao Ren was being driven haphazardly to work by Lily, he blinked at Vivian who was passing by and said, "This girl is crazy again."
Vivian pursed her lips: "A dog that likes to shoot off cannons... What's wrong with her evolution?"
A large group of people were noisily preparing for the first day of opening, but in fact there was really not much to do: the preparations that needed to be done had started a few days ago, and were basically completed as of yesterday
, this group of people today are not so much here to help, as they are just here to have fun. This can be seen just by looking at Lily's cheerful look: this husky has no work at all.
The idea of getting down to business. After the tables and chairs in the store were properly arranged and the various cut and mixed cold dishes were put into the freezer, Lily immediately ran to the back room and ran out with a large box of firecrackers. She seemed happy.
A child, holding firecrackers, was smiling so brightly: "Landlord, come and set off the firecrackers with me!"
Hao Ren glanced in the direction of the kitchen, where Elsa and Vivian were sorting things out in a hurry: after all, it was the first time for them to do this, and it was also the first time to use the new kitchen. Neither of them were familiar with it. Yesterday
Some of the ingredients and seasonings that were prepared in the evening were forgotten where they were placed today at noon. Fortunately, Nangong Wuyue could not stand it anymore. After she went in to help, the situation got better: Snake girl can't do anything else, but her memory is bad.
It's really better than the two in the kitchen.
"Probably nothing will go wrong..." Hao Ren muttered, and then he was dragged out by Lily who looked excited.
Nangong Wudi looked at the still empty street: "I became nervous when things happened... No one will come, right?"
Nangong Sanba comforted his father with a smile: "Don't worry, although there are few people in the southern suburbs, there is a strong sense of humanity. Lily notified all the neighbors she knew yesterday that our restaurant will open today. Everyone knows what to say.
Come to cheer me up."
While he was talking here, there was a sudden crackling sound on the street in front of the store, mixed with the girl's shout of joy: Lily had lit the firecrackers for the opening of the restaurant.
Nangong Wudi and Nangong Sanba looked at each other and walked quickly outside the store.
The lively and loud firecrackers crackled together, and the smoke of gunpowder rose up in the street. In the middle, there might be a "ping" sound from two kicks, jumping into the sky, and exploding. Lily held up the lighter and jumped happily next to Hao Ren.
He jumped up and cheered loudly in a nice voice: "Open-open!!"
Hao Ren smiled and looked at the girl next to him who was happier than the owner of the restaurant: "I think there is no need to set off firecrackers with you here. You are more lively than firecrackers."
Elizabeth held her head and watched this scene in a daze. This was the first time she had seen this earth custom. The little girl was shocked: "Wow! I didn't expect you guys to be the tough folk customs!"
Hao Ren glanced at the little devil in confusion: "Does this involve tough folk customs?"
"Crazyly lit a lot of explosives." Elizabeth pointed to the smoke. "The devil doesn't do this when celebrating festivals!"
Hao Ren suddenly felt speechless. After holding it for a long time, he could only pat the little devil on the head: "You will be surprised when the Chinese New Year comes. According to your standards, the firepower we unleashed during the Chinese New Year is enough for a local war."
Elizabeth: "?"
(I’m busy with the formalities, so I should be doing single updates these days. But if I can squeeze out time, there will be double updates = .=) (To be continued...)
