Chapter 359 Return to the Capital
After staying in Baiyun Village for more than a month and seeing that their family members were doing better and better, Ji Xiaoxi and Du's mother could finally go to Beijing to reunite with Lu Jingchuan with peace of mind.
Fearing that it would be inconvenient for the two of them to take the child with them, Mr. Lu made several phone calls to the processing factory in the village, wishing he could come in person to pick them up and take them to Beijing.
In the end, Ji Xiaoxi declined politely, saying that she would promise to bring herself and Du's mother along, which finally made the old man feel relieved.
When we arrived in Beijing that day, it was the old man of the Lu family who came to pick us up in person.
In the car, the old man hugged Xia Xia and said happily, "Xiaoxi, the spicy hot pot restaurant you opened with Jiyun is really popular now. I have heard my old comrades mention it when chatting with them.
They even joked that it would be possible to get one for their children as well.
The children of my old comrades-in-arms are all little devils. I don’t know which unit to assign them to.
The older generation was concerned about their children, but today’s children have their own ideas and don’t want us old folks to make arrangements for them.”
The old man's tone was full of pride. His child was doing well, others were envious, and the old man was also proud.
Although his old comrades were joking, Ji Xiaoxi still took it to heart.
"Grandpa, I have opened a spicy hot pot restaurant franchise company. If the children of your old comrades really want to open a store, they can come and join my spicy hot pot restaurant.
I teach you step by step."
The old man was stunned, "Join the company? What does that mean?"
Lu Jiyun, who was driving in front, smiled and said, "Grandpa, other people pay to join our spicy hotpot, and then we provide them with seasonings and teach them how to make spicy hotpot."
The old man laughed, "So it's this franchise, that sounds good, I'll mention it to my old comrades when the time comes."
"Okay."
Mr. Lu’s comrades-in-arms are all well-known figures in Beijing, and his family members are also upper-class figures in Beijing circles.
If she could get them to join her spicy hotpot, it would definitely have a huge appeal.
What's more, they are powerful, so anyone who wants to cause trouble in the future will have to be careful.
However, she had only opened a spicy hotpot restaurant in Beijing, and it was not famous enough and not attractive enough to the children of high-ranking officials in Beijing.
You need to have a bigger reputation to attract them.
"Let's have dinner at Yunxuanlou, the old man's favorite restaurant?" Lu Jiyun asked.
"I'm fine with anything." said Du's mother.
"Okay, it's an old restaurant that grandpa likes to eat at, so the food must be delicious." Ji Xiaoxi said.
Lu Jiyun drove the car directly into the old street and stopped in front of a two-story old shop with some Qing Dynasty style. Ji Xiaoxi helped the old man and Du's mother get out of the car, while Lu Jiyun drove the car to another place to park.
The old man seemed to have not been here for a long time. He even looked up at the store and said with a smile, "The business in the store is still the same as before, neither good nor bad.
Those who come here are all old people from the past.”
As he was talking, a few people came over and greeted the old man, "Old Lu, you're here for dinner too. It's been a long time since we last met."
The old man smiled and greeted them, "Lao Li, Lao Ji, Lao Zhou, long time no see, are you guys here to eat together?"
Old Ji smiled and said, "Yes, every once in a while, I want to try the food at Yunxuanlou. That's why I invited them to come as soon as I had time."
He looked at Ji Xiaoxi and Du's mother beside him and asked, "Who are these people?"
"Oh, this is my third son's wife, this is my third son's daughter-in-law, my granddaughter-in-law, and these two are my little great-grandchildren." The old man smiled and said, "Our Jiyun has gone to park the car and will be here soon."
"Your third son has been found? Congratulations." Old Zhou said with a smile: "How about sharing a table together?"
"Sure, let's put together a big table." The old man looked at Ji Xiaoxi and Du's mother, "What do you think?"
"Okay, since you're grandpa's friend, let's go together." Ji Xiaoxi said.
"Just listen to Dad." said Du's mother.
A few of them chose a large round table by the window on the second floor and sat down. The old man selected a few special dishes, Ji Xiaoxi and Du's mother selected a few dishes suitable for children, and the three old people also selected a few dishes.
While waiting for the food, a few people started chatting.
The old men were quite curious about Ji Xiaoxi and Du's mother, and asked Ji Xiaoxi several questions.
After learning that Ji Xiaoxi had opened several stores at such a young age, I became more interested in her.
“Where is your store?
When I have time, I will go to your store with your grandfathers to support you." said Old Ji.
"It's in the food court, but we run a spicy hotpot restaurant. The taste is spicy and numb. I wonder if you will get used to it." Ji Xiaoxi said.
"What's there to be uncomfortable about? We're retired now and have nothing to do all day so we just wander around. We just want to go out and eat something new and try the fresh stuff that you young people have," said Old Ji.
"Grandpas, if you come to our restaurant to eat, I'll give you a free meal." Lu Jiyun parked the car and got in. He just happened to hear this and sat down next to a grandpa with a smile.
"Hahaha...Okay, okay, then I must go try it."
"By the way, it seems that the food court is going to hold a food competition recently." Lao Li said, "I heard from my grandson that it was held by a boss from Hong Kong.
If you win first place in the food competition, you will not only get a prize, but also an investment from your boss.
It seems that this Hong Kong boss is preparing to enter the food industry in Beijing."
“I’ve also heard about this. He is now discussing buying the land in the south, and it seems that he is planning to build a food court, but I don’t know if the news is true.
But this food contest thing should be true.
It should be held next month, and many people are going there for the prize money," said Lu Jiyun.
"Jiyun, how much is the bonus?" Ji Xiaoxi asked.
"The prize money is quite a lot, about 3 yuan!" said Lu Jiyun.
"Then this bonus is really a lot. I'm a little tempted!" Ji Xiaoxi thought to himself that the boss of Gangcheng is really rich.
"Do you want to participate?" Hearing her tone, Lu Jiyun felt that she was ready to take action.
"Yes, a little bit, hehe..." Ji Xiaoxi smiled, "If I win the award, not only can I get the prize money, but I can also promote our spicy hot pot, which I think is great."
"That's right." Lu Jiyun made the decision, "Sister-in-law, I fully support you. Let's go and win the first prize."
"Hahaha...you young people are really the kind of people who do what they say and are full of energy and determination," said Lao Li.
"Very good." Mr. Lu supported with a smile.
