The shopkeeper was unhappy, and Lan Ning did not give in to his temper.

These people wanted to help, but the people in the restaurant kept trying to stop them. I have endured it for so many days and don't want to endure it anymore.

"You are a bunch of short-sighted guys. You want me to help you, but you always say this or that. You always live in the two-acre thinking you see.

If you don't learn to try new things, how can you go further? I am working so hard to make you have better business, not just for your restaurant."

After venting a little, Lan Ning straightened his waist and jumped down from the tall cabinet. Then he ignored everyone and walked out the door.

This old man lost his temper, causing everyone to look at each other in bewilderment, and this only made the shopkeeper even angrier.

"The shopkeeper..."

“Anyone who dares to plead for her can go and let her go.

This little girl has been ordering us around for two days, and we don't know what she wants to do, and she won't explain it clearly. She's doing this and that, and we don't understand what she's doing.

Don't listen to her. The restaurant will open tomorrow. Do you really think that the restaurant will not be able to operate if I miss those two dishes? We will not lose money if the restaurant is cleaned up. At least it will be brand new. We should do what we should do. Prepare the dishes and open tomorrow. Open tomorrow. Humph."

Xiao Wu, who wanted to plead for Lan Ning, was frightened by the shopkeeper's anger and stepped back repeatedly, not daring to say another word.

Lan Ning was no longer very angry as she walked back. In her two lifetimes combined, she had never vented her dissatisfaction in this way. It turned out that venting out anger and dissatisfaction in this way made her feel relaxed and comfortable, and the depression in her heart was easier to dissipate.

Although her situation was very difficult at the moment, she felt more relaxed than ever before.

Lan Ning had no plans to go to the county town the next day. Since the way of distributing dividends from the restaurant was not feasible, she had to think of other ways to make money.

So when she heard the rooster crowing next door in the morning, she didn't get up. Instead, she turned over and prepared to have a good sleep in.

But things did not go as they wished. At daybreak, their door was knocked.

Meng Anran and Grandma Lan have already gotten up, one of them because they are old and sleep less.

One is that getting up early for a long time has become a habit.

They were washing in the yard at the moment when they heard a knock on the door. They looked at each other and wondered who was knocking on the door so early?

Throwing the handkerchief in his hand back into the basin, Meng Anran did not open the door directly. Instead, he put his head on the door and listened carefully to the movement outside.

"Who is it?"

Perhaps she spoke too softly, or perhaps the knocking on the door was too loud, the person outside did not answer her.

Meng Anran didn't dare to ask any more questions, and the people outside stopped knocking on the door.

"Is this the house? Why didn't anyone come to open the door?"

The tone was very doubtful, but the voice didn't sound vicious, so Meng Anran bravely asked again.

"Who is it?"

The people outside heard this and quickly responded.

"Hello, we are here to look for Lan Ning. We have already done what she asked us to do. We specially came to pick her up and take her to the county town."

Grandma Lan, who was standing in the yard, also heard this and quickly walked to the door and asked.

"Who are you? What did she arrange for you to do?"

The noise was so loud that Lan Ning, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up.

Hearing that no one answered them from inside, the person outside raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

"We have no ill intentions. You can ask Lan Ning. She knows us. We came here specially to pick her up."

Hearing the voice, Lan Ning looked up at the door.

"Brother Zhuzi?"

"Yes, it's me."

"And me, Xiaowu."

"Sister Meng, open the door. It's someone we know."

Lan Ning gave an order, and the door that had been tightly closed was finally opened.

Seeing the door finally opened, Xiaowu and Zhuzi breathed a sigh of relief. They almost thought that they would be kicked out if they failed to complete the task assigned by the shopkeeper today.

"Brother Xiaowu, Brother Zhuzi, why are you here?"

Lan Ning stood on tiptoe and looked behind them to see if there were any other people behind them.

Xiaowu and Zhuzi also saw her actions.

"No one's here, no one's here. It's just the two of us. We're here to take you to the restaurant."

"Ok?"

Lan Ning tilted his head, his big dark eyes full of confusion.

"I didn't say I was going to the restaurant today, why did you come to pick me up?"

"Hey, sister, this is the task the shopkeeper has assigned to us, so just come with us.

I'll tell you in secret, he knows he was wrong, but he can't bring himself to come pick you up in person, so he asked us two to come."

Lan Ning curled the corners of his mouth, turned around and went back to his room. A soft and chewy voice came from the room.

"Two brothers, please go back. I won't go to the restaurant anymore. I still need to sleep. I'm still asleep so early."

Seeing that the situation was not good, two young men in their teens rushed into the house without paying any attention to the old man and the child blocking the door.

"Sister, please don't make things difficult for us brothers. This is the task assigned to us by the shopkeeper. If we fail to complete it, we will go back today and pack up our things and get out of the restaurant."

Lan Ning climbed onto the bed with his butt sticking up, and put himself back into the warm quilt. Then he blinked and looked at the two people standing at the door.

"No, if the shopkeeper uncle did this, he is not a good person. Only bad people would do such a thing and drive away the people who work hard in his restaurant."

"Snapped."

A slap landed heavily on the table.

"What? She actually said that."

This powerful palm strike frightened Xiaowu and Zhuzi so much that they quickly took two steps back.

"Boss, indeed, Uncle Li and his men have gone too far these past two days, plus what you said yesterday..."

After receiving a glare from him, the smooth-talking Xiaowu immediately shut his mouth and didn't dare to continue speaking.

"What should we do? Old Li and the other two are old, so it's impossible for them to go. It's also impossible for me, the shopkeeper, to invite him in person."

No one answered, and the shopkeeper felt relieved.

"Forget it. For the sake of my restaurant, I'll endure the humiliation and go and coax this four-year-old girl. Maybe I can see the great grandmother behind her."

So the carriage, which had just stopped for a short while, started off again towards Luojia Village.

When the shopkeeper arrived, Lan Ning had already dressed himself up and had a big bowl of porridge with pickles for breakfast, feeling very satisfied.

Seeing that the shopkeeper came to admit his mistake in person, Lan Ning no longer lost his temper.

Before the shopkeeper came in, he got on the carriage and left with him. Shopkeeper Ye, who came to meet the grandmother behind the little girl, completed his task before he even started to coax the baby. He had no choice but to urge the coachman to drive the carriage to the county town.
