The day after Chu Ling left Liuzhou, she gathered her energy and went to Jiuku Tea House on the spring equinox. Half a year was neither long nor short. At the same time that Chu Ling was named on the gold list, she should also hand in a certificate for herself.
A beautiful answer sheet.
It had been a long time since she came to the teahouse, and the business was much better than she expected. It was said that it was all due to Yu Ahu and Du Yumei. These two people did have a tenacity that no one else had. There were no customers in the teahouse, so they just carried the food.
Tea is delivered for free from door to door, a bowl of herbal tea in summer and a bowl of hot soup in winter. We have persisted for many years. Even customers who don't like to drink Jiu Kuding are impressed by them and will come from time to time to pick out a few bags to put at home.
Bitter taste is like sweet taste. Drinking too much becomes addictive, and their sincerity and tenacity are the ingredients that make customers addicted.
"The tea house's income during the Spring Festival is very good." Shi Chunfen flipped through the ledger and sighed.
"Yes, it's all thanks to Ahu and Yumei." He Dong said with a smile.
"How can I have any ability?" Yu Ahu said with a smile: "I can only follow Yumei and play tricks. It's all due to her."
Seeing that he praised Du Yumei to the highest level, Shi Chunfen looked at her aunt's reaction nervously. She thought her aunt would be angry, but she didn't expect that the other person smiled peacefully and didn't seem to mind Yu Ahu.
Put all the credit on Du Yumei.
Could it be that the two of them have settled down with the aunt?
Shi Chunfen was thinking secretly, but kept a calm expression on her face, "The credit belongs to everyone, and no one of you has to shirk it. Everyone's wages will be doubled this month. As for Madam Du..." She looked at her and said with a smile: "
You are well-received and deserve an extra reward. I wonder what you want, money or jewelry?"
Du Yumei had been standing next to Yu Ahu and didn't dare to interrupt. When she suddenly heard Shi Chunfen's question, she raised her head in surprise, "Ah? I..."
She subconsciously glanced at Yu Ahu, and seeing the other person giving her an encouraging look, she mustered up the courage to say: "I don't want money, and I don't want jewelry. I just hope that the eldest young lady can help my son enter the Dragon Pot."
Studying in the academy.”
After her words fell, many people present took a breath and looked at Shi Cui subconsciously.
Everyone knows that Du Yumei's status as a widow is a knot in Shi Cui's heart, and her son is a thorn in Shi Cui's eyes. She dares to seek benefits for her son in front of Shi Cui. Isn't this an obvious attempt to cut into the old man's heart?
Knife?
Shi Chunfen's expression also froze. She, who had always had a good temper, couldn't help but secretly blame Du Yumei for being so disrespectful. She just came to work in the tea house and wanted to find a good future for her son.
, I bet the mother and son are completely dependent on her?
Seeing that the surroundings suddenly fell into silence, Shi Chunfen also pursed her lips and refused to speak. Du Yumei clenched her handkerchief uneasily and said awkwardly: "If the young lady finds it inconvenient, then forget it..."
Shi Chunfen was about to take advantage of the situation and ask her to change the terms. Unexpectedly, the aunt who had been standing quietly next to her suddenly said, "It's convenient, how can it be inconvenient? Longhu Academy is the best private school in Liuzhou. If you can study there every year,
The future prospects are bound to be limitless."
Nienian was Du Yumei's son, and Shi Cui had never liked him very much. Why did he come back after a year and actually take the initiative to seek a future for him?
Shi Chunxin was doubtful, but it was impossible to displease his aunt, so he quickly said: "Yes, it's just Longhu Academy. I can just ask my father-in-law to write a letter of recommendation."
Even though Chu Yan was a drunkard in the Chu family, he was a famous talent in Liuzhou. Although he did not choose to pursue an official career, most of the deans of the academies had personal relationships with him, so Du Yumei asked about this matter until the Spring Equinox.
On the head.
Seeing that she readily agreed, Yu Ahu was the first to get excited and put his arms around Du Yumei's shoulders, "Yumei, did you hear that? My cousin has agreed that she can go to school every year!"
Du Yumei cried with joy, covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly. As a mother, nothing makes her happier than her child having a good future. As a woman, if there is a man who can treat her child as his own, what else does she have?
Unsatisfied, at this moment, she simply felt that she was the happiest woman in the world!
Seeing their happy faces, the waiters in the teahouse spontaneously clapped, and the applause was full of blessings for them, but Shi Cui silently turned around and left.
Shi Chunfen had been paying attention to her aunt's movements and immediately followed her when she left.
The two went up to the second floor and entered the hut where Shi Cui usually rested to settle accounts. Shi Chunquin took the initiative and asked: "Auntie, are you unhappy? If it's about the annual issue, I can find an excuse to push her away.
"
"No." Shi Cui quickly shook his head and denied: "Don't go back on your word. Nian Nian is a very good child. I also hope that he can have a bright future."
These words were beyond Shi Chunfen's expectation, but she quickly understood that her aunt was a kind person and would not vent her anger on innocent children, but she thought of her too darkly.
Before she could say anything, she heard Shi Cui say again: "But I'm really unhappy."
Through this period of time with Du Yumei, she recognized more and more that she was a pretty good woman. She was smart, tough, and very capable. Any man who married her would be lucky, but she was a widow with a child.
, Shi Cui couldn't pass this test in her own heart, so the more she got to know Du Yumei, the more sad she felt.
On the one hand, she was afraid that she could not prevent Yu Ahu and Du Yumei from getting together;
On the other hand, she was afraid that Yu Ahu would let Du Yumei down.
The two emotions were intertwined and it was really hard for her to be happy.
Shi Chunfen waited for a while, but when she saw that there was no follow-up, she quickly said: "Is it about the matter between eldest cousin and Madam Du? You wish Madam Du well, but you don't want her to be with eldest cousin, right?"
Seeing that she had revealed her thoughts, Shi Cui nodded quickly, "Yes, that's the truth."
Du Yumei is a good woman, but that doesn't mean her son will marry her.
Yu Ahu is now doing better and better in the tea house. Not to mention becoming rich and powerful, he will at least be a small boss who is not short of money in the future. Once he marries a widow, he will be criticized by others for the rest of his life. How can a mother-in-law bear to watch this?
Watching him take detours?
"But even you have changed your mind about Mrs. Du. How could your eldest cousin let go so easily?" Shi Chunfen said matter-of-factly: "When they first started, you couldn't break them up. How can you break them up now?"
?”
This is very realistic, and it is also the reason why Shi Cui has a headache.
Even she couldn't bear Du Yumei anymore. It's strange that Yu Ahu was willing to let go!
