Chapter 177 Taoyuan Lessons
Mao Xi made an appointment with Miss Zhou to visit her fruit cake shop.
She currently has less than 10 gold in cash. Shui Xi does not plan to mortgage her house to borrow money. She asked Ms. Zhou whether the money can be delivered in installments.
Miss Zhou is not short of money and is also a happy person. Feeling grateful for Shu Xi's life-saving grace, she is willing to pay 3 gold in advance and make up for it later.
After the deal to take over the new shop was settled, Shui Xi asked Miss Zhou about the Lin brothers and sisters.
"Ms. Zhou, do you know Lin Qiaoer and his brother from the Shuxi Lin Mansion?"
"The Lin family used to be in the escort business. Later, I heard that because of the escort, I met the boss of the Cao Gang and escorted them for a long time. And since the Xue family left Kaitang County, his shipping business has gradually been replaced by the Lin family , is now regarded as the dominant shipping and freight company in the Lingnan area, and even government affairs depend on his family's face.
As for the Lin brothers and sisters, I have no contact with them. I have only heard that their behavior is too domineering, and they are protected by their family, and ordinary people cannot afford to offend them. "
It seems that my worries are not unreasonable. If I had known that day, I would have gone with Brother Mu instead of making mustard cakes to tease Lin Qiaoer.
Now that I have offended two people at once, I am really worried that the fruit cake shop in Kaitang County will be implicated in the future.
Mao Xi wanted to seek help from Miss Zhou and said uneasily: "Miss Zhou, I seem to have offended the Lin family brothers and sisters today. I'm worried that the cake shop will be implicated in the future. What should I do?"
Miss Zhou comforted Ma Xi and said confidently: "Shop Manager Ma Xi, don't worry. The Lin family's fruit cake shop is not something that the Lin family can touch. After all, my father is the president of the Chamber of Commerce. I'll go back and ask." What solution does dad have, or...are you willing to join dad's chamber of commerce?"
Shu Xi thought about Miss Zhou's suggestion, and joining the Chamber of Commerce would be a good idea.
However, we have had conflicts with other fruit cake shops before. I think they will jointly oppose it and see if Ms. Zhou can coordinate and help.
Kaitang County, Liu Family Fruit Cake Shop.
Lin Wencai quickly found Mao Xi's shop and came to look for him.
He didn't see Mian Xi at the fruit cake shop or the candy shop next door, so he went to the checkout area to inquire.
Lou Lan'er was replacing Shu Xi in helping Lu Da in the shop.
Lu Da also heard from Lou Lan'er about what happened to Shui Xi in the Lin Mansion.
Now seeing that Mr. Lin actually came to the door by himself, Lou Laner stepped forward to say hello to Lin Wencai in order not to affect the business.
"Master Lin, are you looking for our shopkeeper?"
"Yes, is your shopkeeper hiding it?"
"The shopkeeper goes to the small pavilion in Taoyuan to feed the pigeons every day. She is not in the shop. What do you want to see her for?"
When Lin Wencai saw that the chef in the shop could reveal the whereabouts of his shopkeeper to him, he thought that Shui Xi was playing hard-to-get with him, so he sneered and said, "Your shopkeeper is really interesting. He ignored me just now, and now he wants you to tell me." She was feeding the pigeons in the Taoyuan, which was interesting, hahaha."
Seeing that Lin Wencai did not make trouble in the shop and returned to the Lin Mansion first, Lou Laner followed secretly and went to the Lin Mansion to inquire about the news.
Xiao He, the maid in the mansion, was about to go to the kitchen to pass the dishes when she was secretly taken to a corner by Lou Lan'er for questioning.
Lou Lan'er covered her face and asked, "Don't be afraid. Your young master has tied up a cook today?"
When Xiao He heard that he was asking about Mao Xi, he said righteously: "Don't panic, Heroine, the cook has been rescued by a knight, and it was me who showed me the way!"
"You little girl are quite generous!"
"The cook sister taught us how to make coffee, and we also bought the fruits in the shop. They were delicious, but we, Mr. Lin, can't let us, Mr. Lin, take them away."
"What's your name? I'll come find you in the shop if anything happens."
"My name is Xiao He, female hero. I can't talk to you anymore. I have to go to work. There are many servants in the house, so please be careful."
There was a sound from the kitchen. It was the cook calling Xiao He.
Seeing that there were many servants in the house, Lou Laner left first.
Early the next morning, Mr. Lin drank tea early in the Taoyuan Pavilion and waited in order to find Shu Xi.
I thought it was a date with a beautiful lady, but I didn't expect that it was Lu Da, a tall and handsome man, who was waiting for me.
Although Mr. Lin is good at boxing and kicking, in front of Lu Da, he is just a three-legged cat.
After two rounds, he was knocked into the water by Luda.
Before leaving, Lu Da said to Mr. Lin: "The shopkeeper of Liu's Cake Shop is my sister. You are such a scumbag, don't try to have her ideas again, otherwise I will beat you when I see you once in the future." once."
The pool water in the early morning of April was freezing cold.
Mr. Lin soaked in the water with a bleeding nose. It wasn't until Lu Da left that he climbed up to the water bank tremblingly.
"Hmph~ What's the origin of this cook? I have to capture her."
Lihua Town, inside Liuxiang Snacks.
In order to avoid conflicts with the Lin brothers and sisters, Mao Xi has recently let Lou Lan'er take over the management of Kaitang Fruit Cake Shop on her behalf.
At dinner time, Lou Laner and Lu Da returned to Liuxiang Snacks and told Shu Xi that they had taught Lin Wencai a hard lesson for her today.
"Ah Shao, I beat him into the pool this morning and fed him to the bastard. Big brother will relieve your anger. Let's see if he dares to attack you in the future."
"Brother Luda, good fight!"
Mao Xi really wanted to see the embarrassed Mr. Lin who bullied him when he fell into the water.
While everyone was talking and laughing, Zhemei came to the shop holding a guzheng.
An old friend came to have dinner, and Mao Xi stepped forward to receive him.
"Sister Zhemei, where did you go to play the piano today?"
"Today I went to Linglong Mountain to catch up with old friends. Master Guzhu gave me a music score. Take a look."
Mao Xi looked through the music score. She was a music-illiterate and understood all the markings on the music score. She only recognized the title of the music, which was "Fangfei April".
"Sister, if you have learned this song, can you play it for us all?"
"Why don't you go to the candy shop in Kaitang County?" Zhemei asked confused.
"Recently, I've been eating at Liuxiang Snacks, and I've left the shop in Kaitang County under my watch. Sister, what do you want to order today?"
Zhemei ordered the light dishes she usually eats: shanhaidou, vegetarian radish balls, and mustard porridge.
Xiaoqing and Yaomei went to the kitchen to get busy.
"Sister Mao Xi, the National Color Pavilion in Kaitang County will hold a 'singing show' in three days. Sister Mudan will sing there. Her songs and dances are already famous in Kaitang County. At that time, there will be a concert outside the National Color Pavilion. It’s a flower stage, and singers from all over the place will come, and it will be really lively.”
Mao Xi felt anxious in her heart.
At that time, she can use this singing concert to promote some new products and promote her shop.
