Since Huan Ge'er didn't go to school, Xie An simply took a leave of absence from the college and stayed in Qingshan Courtyard every day, wishing he could eat and drink with Huan Ge'er.

When Xie An arrived, Huan Ge'er became much happier and recovered much faster.

Within half a month, he was full of life again.

Su Li was worried about him. Plus, the weather was so hot. Shouldn't the academy have a summer vacation or something at this time?

not understand!

Anyway, Su Li kept him at home for many days.

But Su Li didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that there was something different about Huan Ge'er.

She had warmed Huan Ge'er's heart for over half a year, and he had transformed from a block of stinky, hard ice into a flesh-and-blood child. But for some reason, these days, she felt that Huan Ge'er's eyes had become a little cold again.

There was clearly a smile on the corner of his mouth, but I still felt creepy.

When asked about this, Songzhi and Songtao both said they didn't have such a feeling.

Perhaps it was her mother's intuition.

During this period, Pingge'er's funeral was also hastily concluded.

A funeral procession consisting of only a few people was carried out from the west corner gate, and it was done quietly.

That day, the atmosphere in the Marquis' Mansion was very strange.

No one went to see off the second and third wives.

The Marquis specially allowed Liu Xu to come out and see Ping Ge'er off.

Song Tao said that Liu Xu followed the team in a daze, with the scars from the beatings still on her face, blue and purple, and her eyes were red, but she didn't shed a single tear.

Compared to the crazy and chaotic behavior of the past few days, she was much calmer.

But this kind of calmness is actually creepy.

Like the calm before the storm...

Originally, Su Li felt that there was no major grudge between her and Liu Xu.

Although Liu Xu had snatched Pei Yan away, that scumbag could take whatever he wanted! She didn't care at all.

Besides, Liu Xu got what she wanted and suffered the pain of being stuck in the quagmire because of her own actions, so Su Li didn't want to add insult to injury.

But she should never mess with her child.

The child is her bottom line that cannot be touched!

What's more, Liu Xu and she belong to two different camps, and there will always be a war between them in the future.

As the saying goes, he who strikes first is the strongest, and he who strikes last will suffer.

When it comes to major issues, Su Li never shows mercy.

That day, after reading the letter Su Zhe handed in, I thought that things outside should be almost done, so I packed up and prepared to go out.

The children came over and clung to him as soon as they saw him.

"Mom, Xijieer hasn't been out for a long time. Take me out to play!" Xijieer pulled Su Li's skirt and acted coquettishly.

When Xie An heard that there was something to play with, he jumped up and said:

"Where are you going? I want to go too."

Huan Ge'er had been nursing him for a few days and was much better. But Su Li was still worried and didn't let him go to school, but he had already started studying.

When he heard Xie An and his sister acting coquettishly, he flipped through the book indifferently, oblivious to what was happening outside.

He refused to go to college because his mother didn't want him to.

It’s the same if you study on your own anyway.

When Su Li saw Huan Ge'er like this, he changed his mind and said:

"Indeed, you've been cooped up at home for many days. Come on, I'll take you out for a walk today. Brother Huan, let's go."

"I'm not going." Huan Ge'er didn't even raise his head.

Su Li gave Xie An and Xi Jie'er a look, and the two of them picked up Huan Ge'er and walked out without saying anything.

"It's none of your business! Hahahaha..."

Su Li hadn't been out for a long time. Looking at the bustling crowds on the street, she finally felt a bit relieved. The children were also very happy, looking at this and that in the carriage and discussing what delicious food they would eat later.

Su Li asked someone to send them to Su Ji Restaurant first, and she went straight to Su Zhe's shop.

Looking along the street, I saw several new Xuxue Ice City restaurants. It was summer, and ice cream was hot, so there were long lines outside each one.

On the contrary, some traditional old-fashioned dessert shops are deserted.

"It's so unfair! How can a bitch like her run such a crappy store and yet it's still doing so well!" Song Tao pouted.

Su Li looked at him coldly, "Not a few days left."

When Song Tao heard this, she came up and asked:

"Miss, do you have any good ideas?"

"Don't tell you!"

"Oh, miss, please tell me something. I'm so worried! That bitch treated you like that, miss, you have to teach her a lesson. Don't let her be so arrogant and look down on everyone!"

"Tao'er, do you know how to kill a snake?"

"How to deal with it?"

"Without making a sound, strike as fast as lightning and hit it in the vital area!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Tao saw that the queue at the gate of Xuxuebing City in front of him began to become chaotic.

A burly man at the front of the team cursed:

"What a piece of crap! I've been waiting in line for so long in this scorching heat, and you're telling me it's out of stock! Believe it or not, I'll smash your store!"

The shop boy accompanied me and apologized carefully:

"I'm so sorry. We're closing today. Please come back another day."

"What? Closed?"

The big man grabbed the little brother by the collar.

"Damn it, are you kidding me?"

"No, no, no..." The little brother waved his hands repeatedly.

"What's going on?! They're closing before noon? We're all waiting to buy something!"

"That's right! The kids at home are all waiting for this!"

"What do you mean!"

The crowd at the store entrance instantly became angry.

The shopkeeper came out to apologize and said,

"I'm so sorry, everyone. We're closed this afternoon, so please come back early tomorrow. Thank you so much!"

"Hmph! You didn't tell me you were closing for half a day earlier, and made me wait in such a long line in such hot weather for nothing!"

"What's going on? You're only open half a day these days."

"Let's go buy it at another store!"

"What other store?! I just came from there, and they said they were only open half a day, and they're already closed."

"Is there such a thing? Looks like I can't eat it then!"

"let's go!"

"It's okay. I saw a long-established dessert shop on the old street next door that also sells ice bowls like this."

"Yeah, right. Baoji Teahouse, Fuman Restaurant, and Suji Restaurant have all launched similar new products. I heard that Suji Restaurant's Sushan is made with good ingredients, has a lot of variety, and is reasonably priced! Leave your address and they'll even deliver to your door. No need to queue outside in the scorching heat. Let's go. We can eat it anywhere else, why suffer here?"

"Let's go!"

……

The crowd at the gate of Xuxuebing City gradually dispersed. The shopkeeper and the waiter accompanied Xiaoxin and finally sent everyone away. The waiter was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He said:

"Boss, will you be able to open the shop tomorrow, tomorrow?"

"Well, let's talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow. Let's go, let's close the shop. I have to go find the head shopkeeper to ask for details."

……

Song Tao looked at the situation outside and was so shocked that her mouth shrank into an "oh" shape.

"Miss, what's going on?"

"Let's go to Azhe." Su Li ordered.

Arriving at Su Zhe's shop, it was crowded with people. Su Li went around to the backyard and heard someone say as soon as he entered:

"Manager Liu, how come you're out of ice in such a big ice shop?"

The owner of the ice shop was lying in a rocking chair, fanning himself, and took a sip of ice water and said comfortably:

"No means no."

"Shopkeeper Liu, our two shops have been cooperating since we opened, and we've always gotten along well. Shopkeeper Liu, we're your big customers, and you can't just stand by and watch us die at this critical moment! All ten of my shops are running out of stock, and we're all waiting for your ice to save our lives!"

Shopkeeper Liu rocked in his rocking chair and said:

"Oh, it's not that I don't want to help. You know, it's been getting hotter day by day since the beginning of summer, and my ice is in short supply and the price is comparable to gold! The people who buy ice from me are all high-ranking officials, and I can't afford to offend any of them. I really can't give you any extra ice. Manager Lin, I'm still busy, please help yourself."

After saying that, he pointed to the door with his palm-leaf fan and signaled the waiter to see the guest out.

"Comparable to gold? Manager Liu, do you mean to raise the price?" Manager Lin widened his eyes.

"Well! It's not impossible. How about one ounce of gold for one ounce of ice? If you can afford it, I'll still give you my ice. How about it?" Shopkeeper Liu shielded his eyes with a palm-leaf fan and looked at Shopkeeper Lin.

"Too deceiving!"

Manager Lin walked away in anger.

"Go slowly and don't send me away!"

When Shopkeeper Liu saw that everyone had left, he put down his fan and kettle and walked into the house. He said to Su Zhe who was polishing his sword:

"Master, the people have been sent away."

Su Zhe said, "Well, well done! Go to the account office and get 100 taels and treat the brothers to tea. Also, tell the brothers on the underworld that if I find out that a piece of ice debris has flowed into Xuxue Ice City, he won't have to work with me anymore."

"Yes!"

"By the way, have you delivered the ice to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?"

"Don't worry, Master. I'll give it to you."

"Well, remember to deliver it every day, go ahead."

At this moment, Su Li came in from the back door with a smile on her face, waving her Luo fan and saying:

"You move pretty fast!"

Su Zhe rolled off the couch and said, "Sister, it's so hot, why are you here?" As he spoke, he asked someone to bring iced sour plum soup and put another piece of ice in the room.

He still remembered that Su Li was most afraid of heat. In the past, when summer came, she would want to soak in water and not go out. She also loved to eat cold things.

Su Li said, "Don't bother. I'll just take a look and leave." Pei Heng didn't allow her to eat ice, so she had changed to drinking tea.

Su Zhe tactfully handed over the account book and said:

"Anyone who goes against my sister will never have a good ending. She bullied Huan Ge'er and my sister, so she is my enemy, Su Zhe. Don't worry, sister, I have done what you said that day. Now in the whole Shengjing City, that Liu will never get a piece of ice again."

Su Li had suggested to Su Zhe that he open an ice shop earlier, but actually she just wanted to get a piece of Liu Xu's business empire. However, now that the war was about to start, she might as well give up this piece of the pie.

Now, with a pinch of the backhand, it becomes the weak point of the willow catkins.

What's the point of running an iced drink chain store without ice?

Let’s turn it into an ordinary dessert shop!

Looking at the market, copycat products are emerging in endlessly.

The Sushan (su shan) sold by the restaurants under her name was more authentic and had a richer taste than the ones from Xuxue Bingcheng. Thanks to the restaurants, not only was the Sushan in short supply, but the restaurants' business was also booming, and they also expanded into a takeout business.

After all, ice cream is such a common product that anyone can make it without any technical barriers. Ultimately, it all comes down to service and overall strength.

Within a month, she will make Xuxue Ice City a thing of the past.
