The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 289

A few days later, the steward of the Chen residence and Lan Linzi came again.This time, Lan Linzi took out a letter, saying that the owner of Gu Ji had agreed to hire him as the shopkeeper, and wrote a letter of appointment as proof, and he wanted to start working immediately.

Master Zhang has limited literacy and cannot understand letters, so he raised doubts.The steward of Chen's house said that Master Zhang was openly doubting the prestige of Chen's house, but Lan Linzi resigned from Master Zhang on the spot, saying that Gu Ji didn't need a useless person like him.Master Zhang refused to accept it, saying that no one would be able to resign from his job if the boss did not nod.During the debate, Master Zhang couldn't help cursing.Therefore, Lan Linzi ordered someone to beat Master Zhang half to death on the spot, and also broke Master Zhang's lame leg bone.

Lan Linzi originally wanted to drive Master Zhang's family away, but the special buns of Guji Baozi Shop depended on Master Zhang to prepare the fillings.So, he threatened Master Zhang to hand over the blending method. If he didn't obey, the Zhang family and his wife, Da Mao and Er Mao would have to leave.

Master Zhang would not hand it over even if he was beaten to death.But Mrs. Zhang was terrified, and after begging Lan Linzi for some time, she began to persuade Master Zhang.She said that since the shopkeeper was invited by the shopkeeper himself, they will have to eat according to the shopkeeper's face in the future. It is right to hand over the recipe to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper can't blame them at all.

Master Zhang refused, and asked Mrs. Zhang to take him to Kangxi Town to find an owner.Mrs. Zhang refused, saying that maybe they would sue the new shopkeeper. The boss would think that the husband and wife were reluctant to control the power of the shop, and instead would blame them and drive the whole family out of the shop.At that time, their family can only drink northwest wind.

Between Lan Linzi and Master Zhang, and between Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, there is a lot of gunpowder every day.After being so anxious for several days, the shop failed to sell buns for several days.But Master Zhang couldn't get out of bed by himself, his body was seriously injured, and his wife didn't listen to him. He was so angry that he couldn't eat or drink medicine, and his health was getting worse and worse.

Master Zhang was afraid of delaying his business and didn’t want to tell Lan Linzi how to prepare the stuffing, so he called Da Mao to his side and made Da Mao swear that he would never tell anyone. Then he taught Da Mao how to make stuffing and told Da Mao some Secret techniques.He was so cautious because he was afraid that Lan Linzi would touch the key points of the preparation method based on the materials used.

Under the guidance of Master Zhang, he tried again and again. After two days of practice, Da Mao got the permission of Master Zhang, and hurriedly took over the seat of Master Zhang to prepare the stuffing.According to Master Zhang's instructions, every time he mixes stuffing, he closes the doors and windows tightly, and no one is allowed to enter. Every time he mixes stuffing, he must first show it to Master Zhang.

In the first two days, several customers said that Guji’s buns were not as good as before, but almost no one mentioned the same on the third day.Regarding this, Mrs. Zhang was even more excited than Master Zhang.She felt that the family had new reliance, and Lan Linzi couldn't drive them away.Besides, she tried her best to please Lan Linzi before, but Lan Linzi didn't buy it, instead she made things difficult for her, Da Mao and Er Mao.So, feeling that she had a new reliance, she finally stopped being submissive in front of Lan Linzi.

So far, Master Zhang has explained everything he knows clearly.Master Zhang looked like he was waiting to die, while Mrs. Zhang and Da Mao were trembling beside him.There was also Chef Yan, who was pale and eager to show his loyalty to Qingshu, saying that he knew Lan Linzi was true, but he was definitely not Lan Linzi's accomplice, and he knew nothing about what happened in the shop recently.

With a sullen face, Qing Shu pointed at Lan Linzi and Yan Chef, "The two of them are dragged to the backyard, and I have something to ask them." Then she pointed at Mrs. Zhang, "Xiaojuan, lock her up alone first, and watch over her." Now, take some time off and ask her again."

Zhou Boyan, who had been quietly sitting next to Qingshu, suddenly said, "Ms. Zhang will leave it to you. As for the two of them, I don't bother you to ask yourself. Shitou, take them down so that you can entertain them. Others, don't go anywhere. Just stay here."

Although he borrowed his people, he didn't want his people to get involved too much.So Qing Shu refused, "I know you mean well, I appreciate it. I can handle it, there is no need to..."

Zhou Boyan interrupted her, "Ashu, it's settled."

In the woodshed in the backyard, Mrs. Zhang knelt on the ground, and Qing Shu sat on a chair.Qing Shu didn't look at Mrs. Zhang, nor did she open her mouth to ask Mrs. Zhang any questions, she just sat there.The more this happened, the more nervous and frightened Mrs. Zhang became, and she couldn't get it right in her heart.

A scream and a painful "I've done it, I'll do it all." came to their ears.Qing Shu was unmoved.And Mrs. Zhang fell to the ground in a kneeling position, crying bitterly.

"Miss, please don't drive our family out. Uh... It's the woman who has unreasonable greed and wants to keep running the shop, but because the lady said that she must hire the shopkeeper, she feels aggrieved. The woman feels that It's not fair, our husband and wife worked hard to set up the shop for the young lady, but the young lady invited the shopkeeper to come back and put pressure on our husband and wife. The woman was very unwilling, she had resentment in her heart, she didn't behave properly, and gave the shopkeeper Lan a loophole Opportunity. Uh...it doesn't matter how you punish the lady, just please don't drive our family away, please, please..."

Seeing Mrs. Zhang crying and begging for mercy, Qing Shu thought of a sentence: Poor people must have something to hate.

What she Gu Qingshu did, in the eyes of people of this era, is simply the reborn parents of the four members of the Zhang family.But how did Mrs. Zhang repay her?Knowing that there is a difference, but ignoring Master Zhang’s proposition, taking advantage of Master Zhang’s inability to move, and acting arbitrarily, he allowed Lan Linzi with ulterior motives to run rampant in the shop, not only did not stop him, but also allowed him to do his best, and he did not report to his boss in time .What is the intention?
She gave the four members of the Zhang family a shelter from the wind and rain. She made the four members of the Zhang family have work to do and wages to get. She gave the four members of the family a new start and allowed them to save More than enough, more than enough savings.Can a retired soldier, a woman, two underage boys, anyone else be given such an opportunity, such a job?It's really unsatisfactory.It is ridiculous to say that hard work has supported the shop for her; it is also ridiculous to say that it is unfair to ask the shopkeeper to come back to take charge of the shop.

When the wings grow hard, I start to think carefully, which is really realistic.There are a lot of people waiting to do things for her. If it weren't for the fact that Master Zhang is a retired soldier and has a good character, how could Mrs. Zhang have a bright future!
Qing Shu said indifferently, "What mistakes have you committed, tell them one by one. If you recruit yourself, I can forgive you; if you are not honest enough, let me find out what, hmph!"

So, Mrs. Zhang hesitated to call out a few things.Lan Linzi once asked her to teach Master Zhang how to prepare the stuffing of Guji steamed stuffed buns.Lan Linzi promised that everything would come true, and he would take her away from Guji, and promise her a favor of 100 taels of silver.She didn't say yes.Furthermore, Lan Linzi was able to quickly subdue the kitchen chores, and she played a big role.She and Lan Linzi secretly reached an agreement that Lan Linzi would share [-]% of the money in the shop with her.However, she soon found out that she had been fooled by Lan Linzi, and the two turned against each other.She was very angry and regretted it, but it was not easy to talk about this kind of thing, so she had to swallow this dumb loss.
