When I got home, I saw Lin Tingzhen, Zhou and Lin Jinhui coming over happily.
"Nan Zhi, you are really good at it. The restaurant was packed with people on the first day it opened. The business is so booming."
Lin Tingzhen really couldn't think of any appropriate compliments to express the excitement and joy in his heart.
Lin Jinhui also held Chu Nanzhi's hand happily, and while she was happy, she also had some complaints in her tone: "Sister-in-law, today I said that my father and mother would go to cheer you up. Who would have thought that when we arrived at the gate of Qinghefang, it was already there?
It was so crowded that you couldn’t even see the restaurant’s front door.”
"Why don't you send someone in to inform you when you go?"
Chu Nanzhi led everyone inside and said in a reproachful tone: "If I had known that my aunt and uncle had been there, I wouldn't have dared to neglect you even if the business was too busy."
Liu Yun also added with some shame: "Yes, in-laws, Da Zhi has already reserved a place for you in the garden, how can I let you queue up outside?"
Mrs. Zhou waved her hands quickly: "Don't let us delay my niece-in-law's business. I heard that the nobles from the post house also went to the restaurant today. They didn't have any impact on the restaurant, right?"
Chu Nanzhi shook her head calmly.
As soon as he entered the living room and ordered everyone to take their seats, he saw the young man from the outer courtyard leading several elders slowly following him in.
"I just said that Jin Xiao and Sun's wife are back. You will not believe it."
The second uncle Tan smiled arrogantly at everyone, and glanced at her nephew Lin Tingzhen with dissatisfaction. The Zhou couple said: "Tingzhen, you and your wife are a bit dishonest. Lai Jin
Xiao's family didn't even inform the uncles."
Although there was some reproach, the tone of his words was much better than before.
Since the death of the third uncle Chen, she and Lin Bo have been quiet for a long time, and they no longer dare to ask for any prescriptions from the granddaughter-in-law who is about to be crowned princess.
Even if the business of the medical clinic is about to be unsustainable, he still has to behave respectfully in front of this couple.
Now Lin Tingzhen no longer wants to spoil these old people, and is even more worried that his wife will be criticized again. He choked with a cold face: "They are all sisters-in-law, and they are relatives. Could it be that I have to go through several uncles and aunts to get here?"
?”
"That's not true."
Mrs. Tan's face became stiff after being scolded by him, and she said: "Before, the third uncle Jinxiao loved to talk about grandson's daughter-in-law, which caused a lot of conflicts. We are all one family, but we can't get separated because of this. Now grandson's daughter-in-law
We are running a restaurant and building a house. How can one person be so busy? We have to rely on relatives like us to help."
Third uncle Lin Yuan's face darkened when he heard this.
This couple is really not a good couple. They used to make things difficult for their grandson-in-law, but now they blame all the blame on the four of them.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sneer: "Second uncle is joking. As the saying goes, 'There are specialties in the arts.' Although the family is one family, opening a restaurant and building a house is not what my second uncle is good at. I'm afraid you guys
It can’t be of much help.”
Mr. Tan shook his head disapprovingly: "Nan Zhi, what you said is wrong. Although I and your uncles don't know the ways of the restaurant, we have money in our hands."
"Nan Zhi needs our little money?"
Lin Tingzhen glared angrily: "The Zhao family is as rich as the country. My nephew and daughter-in-law can't do anything with such a reliable stock reward. The little money our whole family has together is probably not enough to fill their teeth."
He also heard today that Taigong Zhao donated one million taels of silver to the state capital, which was really admirable.
In the past, he had been deliberately trying to make friends with the Zhao family, but since the incident with Jiang Xiaoniang, he has become much more indifferent to worldly affairs.
Now that his son has become an official in Beijing, he no longer cares about these worldly things. He just wants to take good care of the affairs of the family, try his best to help his nephew, nephew and daughter-in-law, and spend more time to make up for the damage he has done to Zhou and Jin over the years.
Hui’s mother and daughter’s debt.
As the leader of a clan, he understands very well the principle of both prosperity and loss.
Right now, all the princes are gathering at Luyan Port, all wanting to target their nephew. If something happens to him, the whole clan will be affected.
Mrs. Tan was still thinking about her little calculation in her heart: "Ting Zhen, my second aunt doesn't want to hear what you are saying. No matter how rich the Zhao family is, it is still the Zhao family. We are the same clan. We are brothers fighting tigers, father and son."
Bing, if you want the Lin family in Luyan Port to flourish, you have to rely on your own talents."
I have never found you people to be down-to-earth and worry-free.
Chu Nanzhi muttered to herself, and just as she was about to speak, Lin Jinxiao's lukewarm voice suddenly sounded in the hall:
"Those uncles and aunts want to treat their grand-nephew as one of their own, but they have to think clearly. The third uncle was assassinated by King Dongjin because he wanted to take the lead for his grand-nephew in the post house. Now, although King Dongjin has surrendered,
But there are still two imperial uncles in this state capital, King Nandu and King Beibin, and they are most afraid of having such thoughtful elders like you around their great-nephew."
These words directly made several uncles and uncles feel eclipsed, and for a moment they were frightened and at a loss.
On that day, the Chen family wanted to bring together Concubine Yue Guifei and the Lin family in Luyan Port, but they were killed. This shows that being too close to the couple will not end well.
"Tell me, there's no need to beat around the bush, second uncle, second uncle, do you want to come here to ask for the prescription again or do you have other ideas?"
While everyone was hesitating and uneasy, Lin Jinxiao looked straight at his second uncle Lin Bo and Mr. and Mrs. Tan, with disdain in his eyes.
Mr. Tan did not dare to talk anymore, so he could only secretly glance at his fourth uncle Lin Fen and Mr. and Mrs. Wang who had not dared to speak.
Although Lin Fen and Wang were instigated by the second couple, they really had something hidden in their hearts.
Not long ago, the restaurant business was disrupted by the Qi family and was unable to open for business. Now, although the Qi family has fallen and the city is much cleaner, business is not as easy as they imagined.
The courtyard has always been deserted, and there are very few diners who go to the restaurant every day.
Wang thought back and forth for a long time, hesitated several times before facing Chu Nanzhi, and then she dared to say shamelessly: "Nanzhi, my fourth uncle and your fourth uncle are here today. They want to discuss something with you."
matter."
As he spoke, he glanced at the couple and Lin Tingzhen's family, and began to find it difficult to speak again.
Liu Yun always felt that Lin Bo and his wife were nice people and had no bad intentions. When she saw her coyness, she immediately said: "Her fourth uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it. Da Zhi will try to help you as much as she can.
"
Chu Nanzhi also invited several people to sit down in the hall, and followed Liu Yun's words and echoed: "Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, you don't have to be polite, there are no outsiders in the room."
Although these old people don't have much kindness to themselves and Lin Jinxiao, but now that they are Princess Pingning, the situation must be opened appropriately.
As long as the demands are not excessive, she will try her best to satisfy them.
After all, at this juncture, it is better for people of the same clan to maintain the relationship as well as possible rather than to push it to outsiders.
Mother and daughter Liu Yun and Chu Nanzhi had already reached this point in their conversation, but Wang and Lin Fen still had stiff faces and were unable to speak.
Chu Nanzhi probably guessed what the old couple were here for, and they were probably not coming in the autumn wind.
