The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

The detained swordsman was naturally Li Changxiao.

With the mentality of making the best of a situation, he became a glorious dishwasher.

As soon as the sun rose, the boss's wife pulled me out of bed, put on sheepskin gloves, and started washing dishes.

In my free time, I would be called by the boss's wife to the lobby to deliver meals and dishes.

Long Lai Xiang Restaurant is doing brisk business every day, and Yang Xiuhua herself is very busy.

At night, customers are scarce.

Yang Xiuhua was standing in front of the counter counting on an abacus.

Calculating the day's income.

The sound of the beads tapping was not loud, but very clear. This was the happiest moment for Yang Xiuhua, and she hummed a famous tune from Longcheng.

Li Changxiao sat at a guest table and couldn't help asking, "Boss, can't you hire a few more workers?"

Yang Xiuhua raised her head, frowned, and cursed: "Are you tired already?"

"You're tired, but you still dare to order that girl's red wine that's hundreds of years old?"

When she thought of this, she couldn't help but grit her teeth.

The best girl's red wine was wasted by this guy like this.

"Can't I exchange my wine with yours?" Li Changxiao said.

As a result, Yang Xiuhua rolled her eyes and said, "Who wants to drink your crappy wine?"

As he said this, he lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the abacus.

"Boss lady, have you ever thought about marrying a man to help you?" Li Changxiao suddenly asked curiously.

He saw that the proprietress worked from dawn to dusk, keeping the restaurant in order.

I really made a lot of money.

But, there is no time to spend.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that you are still young and beautiful now. In a few years, you may become a haggard woman.

Yang Xiuhua's eyes dimmed, and then she sneered and cursed, "Bah, none of you men are reliable."

Li Changxiao's question ruined her good mood. She patted her abacus and turned back to her room.

Li Changxiao looked at her back and muttered, "She is indeed a tigress." She continued drinking until dawn.

The next day, I was rushed to work again early.

Hearing that an important person was coming to Longlaixiang Restaurant for dinner today, Yang Xiuhua dressed up early in the morning and closed the restaurant to no guests.

Li Changxiao naturally didn't have to wash the dishes. Instead, he cleaned the cafeteria carefully from top to bottom.

Yang Xiuhua also joined the cleaning team, continuing her previous tough style, rolling up her sleeves and doing the work efficiently and effectively.

Until the evening, Long Laixiang had a new beginning.

Afterwards, she saw that Li Changxiao looked good, so she asked him to change his clothes and go outside the door with her to welcome the arrival of the important man.

The two of them waited outside the door for a long time in the wind and snow.

A sedan drove up.

The big shot has finally arrived.

Yang Xiuhua gently kicked Li Changxiao twice, asking him to be smarter, then she forced a smile and ran to greet him.

However, a figure walked out from the cafeteria opposite, with a flattering smile on his face, and ran to the side of the big shot.

Yang Xiuhua was still about two meters away from the important man when she was intercepted by a constable.

Her face changed and she wanted to say something.

The big shot who had just got off the sedan glanced at Yang Xiuhua and the other person, then retracted his gaze and followed the man with a flattering smile to the restaurant opposite.

Yang Xiuhua, who has always been known as a tigress, stood there in a daze.

Li Changxiao saw that tears were welling up in her eyes.

That night.

Yang Xiuhua burst into tears.

Li Changxiao thought, is it really that important? Business is just like that. It's normal for a big shot to try something new occasionally.

Yang Xiuhua burst into tears and angrily scolded Li Changxiao for not knowing anything and just making sarcastic remarks.

The next day, Li Changxiao found out after asking around.

The owner of the restaurant opposite was originally a beggar, and was taken in by Yang Xiuhao kindly.

As they got to know each other better, Yang Xiuhua felt that the other party was an honest person. Since she was also in need of help, she taught him some of her family's skills.

Then the beggar, after learning the skill, opened a restaurant opposite with the financial support of a wealthy family and named it "Hu Lai Xiang".

Yang Xiuhua blamed herself because it was because of her that the family craft was leaked, and she would not be able to face her father when she died.

The big shot was an official in Longcheng, and was a good friend of Yang Xiuhua's father.

And now, even he went to "Hu Lai Xiang" to eat, how could she not be sad, how could she not cry.

However, no matter how much she cried, she still got up as usual the next day to receive clients.

However, the business of Hu Lai Xiang across the street is booming again.

There are also rumors about the Jianghu.

The famous dishes such as "Dragons Coming Out of the Four Seas" and "Mandarin Ducks Playing in the Water" actually come from "Hu Lai Xiang Restaurant". Long Lai Xiang plagiarized it.

Upon hearing the news, Yang Xiuhua almost fainted from anger.

With her strong character, she could not tolerate this and started making a scene at Hu Laixiang's door.

Unfortunately, she only ended up being labeled a shrew and didn't get any benefit.

Yang Xiuhua was actually quite good-looking, with a plump butt and big breasts. Even when she was wearing coarse cloth, she was still sexy and attractive, and she had many suitors in her early years.

She is just a girl, and it would be impossible to manage such a big dining hall without being a little fierce.

Coupled with the deliberate spread of rumors by some people, over time this street became a famous tigress.

At night, Li Changxiao saw Yang Xiuhua crying silently, blaming himself for not being able to protect the family business.

Li Changxiao's eyes turned, and he asked Yang Xiuhua for permission, saying that he could act as an undercover agent and sneak into "Hu Lai Xiang" to drink all the good wine in their restaurant.

Yang Xiuhua's eyes lit up, and she gave Li Changxiao a few taels of silver. She went to Hu Laixiang across the street, ordered some food to try, and asked him to come back and tell her what he felt.

Li Changxiao ran into "Hu Lai Xiang" with silver and money, but was immediately kicked out.

The boss of Hu Lai Xiang frowned and invited many martial artists to watch over the hall, but he was not afraid of this half-baked swordsman.

He declared that Hu Laixiang was not welcome and Li Changxiao was not welcome.

Li Changxiao returned to Long Laixiang in shame and reported the battle situation.

Yang Xiuhua was so disappointed with him that she asked, "Can't you just change your appearance in advance?"

A few more days passed.

Hu Lai Xiang's business was getting better, but his temper gradually worsened. He put up a wooden sign at the door, "Long Lai Xiang and dogs are not allowed to enter!"

that day.

Li Changxiao saw that Yang Xiuhua was looking at the plaque for a long time without saying a word, and he didn't know what she was thinking about.

Li Changxiao sighed, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

At least I don’t have to wash so many dishes.

During this period.

Li Changxiao heard that the tidal spectacle in Longcheng was about to begin.

Longcheng is located on the sea, and at the end of every winter, there will be a tidal spectacle that is extremely magnificent.

Many writers and poets like to come here to write poetry and use the mighty tides to describe their own ambitions.

The structure of Longcheng is somewhat special, with one city and eighteen counties.

The first city is the town where Li Changxiao is now.

In addition to here, there are eighteen counties and cities below, which also belong to Longcheng.

The tidal spectacle occurred in one of the eighteen counties and cities.
