Chapter Fifty-Seven

"It's nothing to worry about, as long as the children like it. As adults, aren't we supposed to do everything for the sake of the children?

And I see that Ruonan seems to be quite interested in cooking. If you are willing, you can learn to cook from the third aunt."

Since girls can't study, it's better to learn some crafts.

In the future, if you become a craftsman, you will have the capital to settle down and make a living. If you get married, you won't have to look at your husband's face in everything at home.

Having the ability is your greatest confidence.

"I am willing to learn cooking from my third aunt. If I can make dishes as delicious as my third aunt's in the future, I will be very, very happy!"

The little girl's cheeks were red when she spoke, and the eyelashes on her big eyes were fluttering. She was so cute.

"Thank you so much, Xiaomu!"

"Thank you for what I did. These are all things I, the third aunt, should do."

She touched Gu Ruotong's head, feeling emotional and helpless.

After all this fuss, the atmosphere at the dinner table finally improved a lot.

This meal really makes people feel like there is a stick in their throat and a thorn in their back.

However, Ms. Li was still very satisfied with the atmosphere. When she saw that everyone had finished eating, she said: "Speaking of which, everyone must remember to thank Xiaomu. If it weren't for her, our family's life would not be so good.

Especially for the boss's family, the two girls must remember the kindness of their third aunt."

"What you say is serious, what you say is serious."

Su Xiaomu didn't dare to respond and waved his hand decisively.

The next day, Su Xiaomu and the others went out relatively late.

With my own oxcart, I can sleep at home for an extra hour.

Mrs. Chen made breakfast and gave Su Xiaomu an extra meat bun.

"Xiaomu, it was the second sister-in-law who was wrong yesterday. The second sister-in-law has to apologize to you. Don't forget to blame the second sister-in-law."

Although Mrs. Chen has a bad temper and loves to care about everything, she still has advantages, such as her foresight.

She knew that now there was another Su Xiaomu in the family, and she was willing to bow her head in front of her.

And she also knows that the children's ability to go to school depends entirely on her.

"What did the second sister-in-law say? How could I blame you? I have already forgotten what happened yesterday. Does the second sister-in-law still remember it?"

She swallowed the meat bun several times and talked to Mrs. Chen in a friendly manner.

"It will be more troublesome for my second sister-in-law to collect the eggs, and I have to keep an eye on the ice powder seeds for me. Now, the most popular thing in our shop is the ice powder."

She was not making this up, deliberately setting things off for Chen.

The cakes in their shop require eggs and flour, and a large bucket of ice powder is sent to the academy every day. More than half of the daily taels of silver are contributed by the ice powder.

Fortunately, there are a lot of ice powder seeds on the mountain, which can be supplied to their shop.

"Don't worry about this. I rub it from morning to night every day. As long as you have more, I won't miss you."

In this regard, Mrs. Chen still dared to pat her chest and promise Su Xiaomu: "I will take care of everything."

"Of course I trust my second sister-in-law to do things."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

After they had breakfast, they went to work in the shop. Today's business was as good as ever, but the customers were not as high-quality as the previous few days.

"I said boss, your meat is made of good meat, right? Why does it taste sour to me?"

A burly man slammed his chopsticks on the table. He pointed at the pancakes on the table angrily: "This thing costs six cents a piece and has no meat at all. Are you trying to defraud someone's money?"

"Our meat is made from the best. If our customers have any questions, they can go to our kitchen to see it. As for the price... we also use white flour and eggs, which are affordable."

Su Xiaomu saw someone making trouble and quickly came out to calm down the situation.

After all, when this burly man makes a scene, all the customers look at the table, which affects her business.

"Good thing? Does the boss think that he has seen little of the world?"

What about your kitchen? I've been here before, and the yard behind you is small and shabby. I'm afraid it's not very hygienic. Maybe the person kneading the dough for you is a rat, hahahaha!"

After he finished speaking, everyone at the table laughed, as if they had encountered something happy.

At this moment, Su Xiaomu tried hard not to grit his teeth.

No matter how dumb she was, she should have noticed that they were deliberately causing trouble.

Mrs. Yin and her two daughters stood by the kitchen, not daring to speak. The three of them clenched their fists in anger and dared not speak.

Su Xiaomu waved to Gu Ruonan, took her hand and wrote a word, and lowered his voice in her ear: "I'll leave this matter to you."

"Um."

The little girl knew that she had a heavy responsibility on her, so she nodded solemnly, and then ran out.

The burly man noticed the movement here, and his face suddenly fell: "Boss, what is this?"

"It's nothing. Since this guest doesn't like food and doesn't want to follow me to the kitchen, it's better to pay the money and find another restaurant. It's hard to agree with others, so the guests don't have to force themselves."

She saw that the other dining guests wanted to leave, and she didn't want to continue wasting time with these rogues.

But as soon as her words came out, it was like hitting a flash point, causing the tall man's face to change instantly.

He looked at the delicate-looking Su Xiaomu, with a cold expression on his face, and sneered angrily.

"Why, the boss is trying to kick us out? You girls go out to do business, but instead of greeting the customers with a smile, you kick us out. What's the point of this?"

"Still, you are selling dog meat with sheep's heads. What you are making are pancakes, but actually..."

He didn't know what he was thinking of, and the expression on his face was intriguing: "He's taller... but his taste is a bit off, but his figure is still..."

"The guest looks a bit ugly and has a bad mouth. He may look useless, but he is actually useless."

Su Xiaomu had to endure it, at least not to anger them before Gu Ruonan brought the arrester, so as to avoid causing losses to the shop.

There is a limit to a person's patience, especially when a few of them are full of shit, and every word they say is more unpleasant than anything they say.

The situation on her side was tense, while Gu Ruonan's side was running with all her strength.

She was not familiar with the roads in the city, so after running for a while she stopped to look for someone to ask for directions. The Yamen was not far away, but there were many alleys between them, so walking was a bit troublesome.

Gu Ruonan was very nervous. She knew that she had a very heavy burden on her.

"Third uncle!"

She was nervous the whole time, but when she saw a familiar face on the road, she relaxed instantly.

She saw Gu Jingcheng!

"Ruonan?"

Gu Jingcheng heard a familiar female voice. He raised his head and looked forward, frowning when he saw the person.

Why is Gu Ruonan here? And he looks a little bad?

He stepped forward quickly.

"Ruonan? Why are you here? Are you following..."

Gu Jingcheng's words faltered. He wiped the sweat from her forehead and softened his voice slightly, "But you came with your third aunt?"

"Um!"

The little girl nodded quickly, "Someone is making trouble in the shop. Third aunt asked me to report to the official, but I don't know the way. Third uncle, can you take me there?"
