The general kneels on the washboard again

After the beginning of spring, the reconstruction work of Nanshan Village began in full swing.

There were signs of a late spring cold snap in the weather, and Yue Niang still had a lot of food left in her cellar. That's how Yue Niang realized the importance of food.

After the spring, even though the journey was long, there were still waves of outsiders coming to buy food, and their clothes and appearance did not seem to be locals.

At that time, Yue Niang was participating in the reconstruction of the village in Nanshan Village. Ruoyan came hurriedly and said that someone was already waiting at Pinmingju.

Yue Niang set off without stopping.

When looking at those people, Yue Niang became even more confused. They had Lingzhou accents, and the fabrics of their clothes did not look like those of servants or errand boys.

The leader was a man in a green robe, looking to be in his early twenties, with an extraordinary bearing. He looked at Yue Niang and spoke first: "I guess this is the boss? I heard you have grain to sell?"

Yue Niang also bowed: "Yue Niang, this box is a gift. I have kept you waiting for a long time. I do have about a hundred pounds of grain to sell."

After all, she didn't know the details yet, so Yue Niang didn't dare to reveal the actual situation of the grain and only gave a small number.

Hearing that it was over a hundred pounds, the leading man couldn't hide his joy on his face: "That's great, a hundred pounds can also accomplish great things. Name a price."

Yue Niang gestured with her hands: "Two guan and one shi."

The man's expression became even happier. "Okay, I'll take all the hundred pounds. You can decide when it's convenient for us to move out."

So straightforward? Yue Niang had a bold idea in mind.

Yue Niang looked at them and said, "Any time is fine. Hand over the money and the goods will be delivered."

The man didn't hesitate and immediately paid the money. Yue Niang then arranged for the people from Pinmingju to go to the cellar and move out about a hundred kilograms of rice.

Those people were really anxious and moved away immediately.

After the people left, Ruoyan was a little confused: "Yue'er, two strings of cash for one stone, why don't you sell them all?"

Yue Niang made a shushing gesture and pulled Ruoyan in. Seeing that there was no one around, she said, "Keep this batch for now. It will definitely sell for a better price."

Ruoyan was puzzled: "Yue'er, is there something wrong that I don't know about?"

Yue Niang shook her head slightly. "I'm not entirely sure, but fortunately, we've already made back our investment after selling this batch. We can afford the loss."

Everyone in Nanshan Village worked together and quickly rebuilt the village before the Dragon Boat Festival. However, Yue Niang was already counting down her days in Nanshan Village.

For two consecutive months, Yue Niang was immersed in Feng Manxuan's business and had not returned to Nanshan Village for a long time.

On this day, Zhao Xiaoming, who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly appeared in Feng Manxuan mysteriously.

As soon as Zhao Xiaoming entered the room, he shouted loudly: "Yue Niang, there is a banquet in the village tonight, and the village chief asked me to invite you to attend."

Yue Niang poked her head out from the inner room and asked, "What kind of banquet is this?"

Zhao Xiaoming walked over and said, "The village is finally finished, and we're hosting a banquet. Do you want to go?"

Yue Niang smiled brightly: "Great, that's just right, Brother Xiao Ming, come and help me knock on this piece of wood."

When Zhao Xiaoming approached, he saw Yue Niang repairing the house with a big hammer.

Zhao Xiaoming took over: "If you have such questions, you should come to me, or ask that blockhead Gu Xiufu to do it. Why do you do it yourself?"

Yue Niang covered her waist and said, "Don't mention it. There are many outsiders coming here recently, and Pinmingju is very busy."

"So what have you planned to do here?"

Yue Niang stared into the distance in a daze: "I still want to open a restaurant. How about hot pot?" Yue Niang suddenly thought of the self-service hot pot. Although it is a self-service business, it is a sure-win business with good marketing.

Zhao Xiaoming had naturally eaten it before, and he immediately agreed: "Yes, it's better than barbecue."

After the house was repaired, Zhao Xiaoming went to Pinmingju to call Ruoyan and others, and left early to go to Nanshan Village.

Looking at Zhao Xiaoming driving the carriage and Ruoyan sitting beside him, the affectionate couple, Yue Niang couldn't help but smile like an aunt.

Nanshan Village has been completely renovated. Yue Niang has almost spent all her family fortune and has little money left, so she has not built her own house.

The traces of the disaster in Nanshan Village have not been completely erased. There is almost no grass or trees, and the houses are no different from before.

When they arrived at the village, Zhao Xiaoming led everyone to Yue Niang's house and saw the plaque of Fu's House on the house from afar.

Yue Niang was very confused: "Brother Xiao Ming? What is that?"

Zhao Xiaoming smiled innocently: "This is a little token of our appreciation from the villagers. You'll see when you get in."

Entering the yard, the layout of the house has not changed much, but the original shabby and patched-up appearance has been completely renewed.

The village chief was the first to greet them: "Yue Niang, we are very grateful for everything you have done for Nanshan Village. We built this yard together, and every household contributed."

Yue Niang vaguely felt that something was wrong, as if she was trying to boil her bones into oil.

Yue Niang asked, "The materials were only enough for you to rebuild one house, and you rebuilt this one too. Is your house stable?"

The village chief kindly explained, "It's enough, the house is stable, please take a seat."

Seeing the long-lost smiles on everyone's faces, Yue Niang's soft heart was also touched.

In the orphanage in the previous life, everyone worked together to build and decorate. Although we were not family, our hearts were united as one. The disaster in Nanshan Village also illustrates this truth.

Today, Yue Niang drank some wine, and the spicy feeling burned from her stomach to her head.

When Qingming Festival came again, it was already the afternoon of the second day. The mess in the yard had been cleared, and Dongzhu was watering the flowers and plants in the yard.

It is the Dragon Boat Festival and the sun is very scorching.

Yue Niang was feeling depressed, but she still forced herself to go to Feng Manxuan.

I plunged into this business headfirst, and my days became a mess, with no clue what was going on.

After half a month of busy work, Fengmanxuan is finally able to welcome guests again.

The curiosity and low price attracted many customers.

On the first day of opening, Lan Xin's husband and mother-in-law came to cause trouble again.

"Lan Xin, get out of here! You opened such a big restaurant, but you don't even support your son. How can this be possible?" The man's face was flushed, he walked unsteadily, and there was a disgusting smell of alcohol when he spoke.

Behind him followed a shifty-looking woman, presumably Lan Xin's mother-in-law, who echoed her son, "That's right. You stole our family's money, bought this restaurant, and then abandoned your husband and children. Come to court with us today and have a say."

Lan Xin was greeting guests in a private room on the second floor. When she heard the noise, she immediately ran out: "Daniu, mother-in-law, let's go upstairs and talk."

The two were unyielding: "Why do you say it up there? Are you afraid of losing face? Just say it here."

Now that the people of the Fu family are eyeing them covetously, Yue Niang is not in a position to show up, so she whispers a few words to Wen Shu who is standing beside her.

Wen Shu immediately went downstairs: "What are you two doing? How did a servant I hired become the boss? And he's also stealing. This is absolutely unacceptable. I have no choice but to fire him."

Da Niu and his mother originally wanted to take the opportunity to ask Wen Xin for some money, but now that they heard that Wen Xin was not the manager of the restaurant, they quickly restrained their arrogance.

Da Niu looked at Lan Xin and said, "You're just a servant? And you told me you're the manager of the restaurant now and asked me to give Xiao Hu to you to raise, you bitch."

Lan Xin looked upstairs guiltily. Yue Niang had long ago warned her not to act rashly, but she really missed Hu Zi too much.

Yueniang shook her head gently.

Wen Shu also understood the reason and took out a silver ingot from his waist: "I am opening my shop today. If you don't want to report it to the authorities and have them charge you with making a noise, then leave immediately."

What Da Niu and his mother wanted was money, and they also knew that Wen Shu was a teacher and well-versed in law, so they just glared at Lan Xin fiercely and left.
