Chapter 66

Mrs. Liu returned home angrily, 'seeing the man smoking on the kang, she was very angry', stepped forward and pushed, 'Dou Ershan staggered' and almost fell off the edge of the kang.

Dou Ershan glared angrily and scolded, "You're a dead woman, you can't do it to death. Why are you pushing me? Is your skin itchy?"

"You're worthless', you know how to smoke, everyone has gone to the county to make a fortune' you still know how to smoke at home' I'm so miserable' Marry you such a lazy man'You don't eat well and you don't wear well' I don’t even have to spend any money, woo woo woo~ My life is so miserable~”

Dou Ershan looked at Mrs. Liu, who was doing nothing but thunder, and said impatiently, "Why are you howling? If you want to howl, when will I be short of you, and all the money in the family is in your hands." If you are still not satisfied, is it possible that you still want mountains of gold and silver?"

"What do you know, Dou Hua and your fourth brother opened a noodle restaurant together in the county town? Everyone in the village knows about it, but you are still kept in the dark. Why are you only called fourth child for such a good thing? You are also his second son." Uncle, why didn't she call you?" Liu cried.

"What do I think it is? Isn't it just opening a noodle shop? I've heard about it a long time ago. What's the matter? They open it as soon as they open it. What's in the way of us? Why are you still envious of other people's shop? Let me tell you It's useless to be greedy, you don't get along well with Dou Hua, and he still has good things to think about you, I advise you to stop now, lest you make yourself miserable, you can't beat Dou Hua." Dou Ershan said disapprovingly .

"Okay, you Dou Ershan, you deserve to be his second uncle, and you only talk to her, woo woo~ I can't live through this day~" Sitting on the ground, Mrs. Liu began to play tricks.

Dou Ershan was so annoyed by the quarrel that he couldn't even smoke his pipe anymore, so he scolded loudly, "I don't want to pass it, get out! Go back to your mother's house, my Dou's house can't accommodate you anymore."

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu even sat on the ground and burst into tears, looking like a shrew. Dou Ershan looked upset, and went out angrily with a cigarette pipe and pot.

Mrs. Liu pretended to cry for a while, but when she saw Dou Ershan leaving, she stopped crying, stood up from the ground, and snorted at Dou Ershan's back, "Hmph, you're worthless, don't worry, I'll go by myself .”

Dou Hua and the others don't know that the Liu family is still making such a fuss, they are busy in full swing.

The business of the noodle shop is good, and it welcomes customers every day, so it is inseparable from people; the field at home also needs to be taken care of. There is a lot of rain in summer, and the crops in the field grow well. Similarly, the grass in the field grows strong. Every few days It is necessary to weed once, otherwise the grass is quite fat-eating, and they eat up the fertilizer, and the crops in the field will reduce their yield.Dou Hua's family has to take care of both ends, and is extremely busy every day.

Every morning when I get up early, I go to the field to weed the grass. The grass is not wasted, and all of it is fed to the black sheep and the little Huizi. The black sheep gave birth a few days ago and gave birth to two lambs. Dou Hua Fearing that these lambs would eat the vegetables in the yard, they built a sheepfold for them.However, I didn't keep these sheep in circles all the time. In the evening, I would lead them to graze on the grass in the wild.

The rabbits at home are more delicate, and they always need to cut fresh and clean grass and dry the dew before feeding them.

After finishing the work in the field, Dou Hua had to drive the donkey cart with Mrs. Li to the county town to sell noodles for noon, and hurried back before the evening. Every day was extremely busy and fulfilling, even a rest day nothing.

At this time, Dou Hua regretted opening a shop. If she knew how hard it was to run a shop, she might as well rent it out, and she would get a few taels of silver every month, so that she could have time to rest and be busy with other things. Things don't need to be as busy as a spinning top, going around like a spinning top.

Although she was a bit regretful, when Dou Hua saw the contented smiles on the faces of the family members and Li Shi, she felt that it was nothing. Everyone was so happy, and it was worth it.What is there to complain about? Seeing that the young people in the family enjoy it every day and treat the noodle shop as the most important thing in the family. Dou Hua suddenly feels that this little bit of suffering is nothing. Let's go, Dou Hua comforted herself with these words, and she still runs between Dou's Village and the restaurant every day.

Jiang Ermeng hadn't seen Dou Hua for a while, and he was thinking very much. He made a special trip early in the morning, picked a few big watermelons, drove the bullock cart to pull the prey he hunted yesterday, and planned to visit Dou Hua's house before entering the city. , leave the watermelon for her, if you are lucky, maybe you can have a few words with Dou Hua, see her smiling face, etc. Thinking of this, Jiang Ermeng couldn't help but feel a little turbulent.

Just as Jiang Ermeng drove the bullock cart to the gate of Dou Hua's house, he met Dou Hua's sister and brother coming out of the yard driving the donkey cart, and the two groups happened to meet each other.

"Brother Jiang, why are you here?" Dou Lin shouted happily, and rushed over with his calves. There is still some time before school time, so Dou Lin is at home helping the eldest sister and brother to load things on the car , this job can be done without him, but he always rushes to work.

"I'm going to the county town to sell wild things. I picked some watermelons and brought them to you on the way. What are you doing here?" Jiang Ermeng looked at Dou Hua and said.

Dou Hua looked at Jiang Ermeng at the door and was also a little surprised. She hadn't seen him for a while, but this guy couldn't bear it and came again. Seeing the other party's straightforward eyes, Dou Hua couldn't help feeling hot. I'm also very happy, since I met, I can't keep silent like before,

"Brother Jiang, you don't know yet. We opened a noodle restaurant in the county seat, which is also on the East Street. If you go to the county seat one day and get hungry, you can just go to our noodle restaurant. You can eat the noodles in the restaurant. "

"Uh, that's it, hehe, then I'll go over and have a bowl today." Jiang Ermeng said, "Are you going to the noodle shop now? I happen to be going to the county town too, so let's drop by."

To this, Dou Hua nodded, and took the watermelon brought by Jiang Ermeng into the house. After thinking about it, she carried a watermelon and put it into the donkey cart. Today, except for Dou Lin, all the younger ones wanted to help in the restaurant. There is nothing wrong at home right now, and Dou Hua followed their wish and took them along.Dou Lin also made arrangements. At noon, after school, he went to Dou Sishan's house and had dinner there.

Dou Hua locked the door of the house, dragged her neighbor A Tao to look after her as usual, and took a few children out to pick up Mrs. Li.Although Dou Lin was a little envious, he still consciously went to the school with his bookcase on his back, hoping that the day of Muxiu would come soon, so that he could go to the county with his eldest sister and the others.

After picking up Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li saw Jiang Ermeng at the entrance of the village, and couldn't help but glance at her niece meaningfully, but didn't say anything.

Dou Hua explained herself, "Brother Jiang went to the county seat and brought some watermelons along the way."

Mrs. Li nodded and said with a smile, "He is kind to you, you are very lucky, but people in the village are noisy, so it's better to avoid it."

Dou Hua said, "I know."

Jiang Ermeng had a good idea, and went to the county with Dou Hua as companions, but unfortunately, after his own cattle started to run, he realized that the distance was far worse than that of Dou Hua's little Huizi. The son trotted all the way, and had already run to the front, while his old cow was still walking slowly here wagging its tail.

Jiang Ermeng was very discouraged. It looked like he had no chance to chat with Dou Hua.

Dou Hua saw that Jiang Ermeng was left behind, while Xiaohuizi was still jogging happily at the usual speed, but Jiang Ermeng's cattle did not have this speed, so in this way, within a short time, he would definitely fall into the river The second is fierce and far away.

It was agreed to go together as companions, but she couldn't take care of it at the moment, so Dou Hua had no choice but to take advantage of the donkey cart and yelled at Jiang Er who was behind, "Brother Jiang, let's go first, you go to the county seat After selling the wild things, go to Douji Noodle Shop to meet us, and I will treat you to noodles."

Hearing Dou Hua's shout, Jiang Ermeng's depressed mood became a little happier, and he shouted back, "Understood, you go first, I will look for you later."

On the way to the county town, Xiao Huizi had already run many times, and he was very familiar with it. He ran fast on all fours, and in half an hour, Dou Hua and the others entered the county town and came to their restaurant.

I moved all the materials prepared in the car into the store. The dishes were collected by farmers in Doujia Village and neighboring villages, and the price was also cheap. In order to hurry up, the noodles were kept awake at home. In the store, just roll out the noodles and cook, and prepare various side dishes and seasonings.

Things in summer can’t help being put away. Dou Hua’s ingredients are fresh every day and don’t keep them. The live noodles are fixed every day. After selling noodles for a period of time, I have a general understanding of how many people come to buy noodles. The preparation is about the same, and occasionally when there is not enough, the closing sign will be hung up in advance. If there is any leftover, the whole family can eat one bowl for one meal.

Li Shi is good at kneading noodles, she is good at this, kneading the noodles is very firm, the cut noodles are even in thickness, and the presentation is good, Dou Hua can't do that, she is in charge of making side dishes and various sauces .

Dou Qing wiped off the dust on the tables, chairs and benches with a rag, checked the various seasonings on the table, arranged them neatly, and added some if they were missing.

Dou Cui and Dou Hong helped to choose vegetables, heat the fire and boil water, the family each had their own work, sitting busy and preparing.

When the noodles are cooked, mixed with water and mixed with oil, and all kinds of side dishes are ready, the front door of the noodle shop is opened, and the business sign is hung up, and the rest is just waiting for the customers to come to the door.

The door of Dou's house usually opens after Si time. There are not many people coming to eat at this time, and there are usually more people at lunch time.

Qingyang County is just a small county, and people's purchasing power is very limited. Only a few dozen people come to the noodle shop every day, and there will be more when they catch up with the market, which is also very good.After all, there are few wealthy families, most of them are ordinary families, and most of them cook for themselves, and occasionally go to restaurants to improve their meals.

Near noon, customers began to come to eat noodles, and Douji Noodle House began to get busy.
