Seeing Xiaoling's happy look, Qibao followed his wishes and made a simple frame to frame Xiaoling's sketch. Xiaoling was so cute that he sat in front of the portrait and praised how good he looked. It was so beautiful that Qibao couldn't stop laughing for a while.
Half a month passed quietly, and half of the vegetables in the greenhouse had grown, and they would be ready for picking in about twenty days.
Today, Su Chenyu came to Xu's house specially to tell Qibao the good news that the shopkeeper of Yipinxian had been beheaded in public at Caishikou, and Yipinxian was officially under Qibao's name.
Qibao was shocked and said: "Mr. Su, this is not possible. You paid for this shop, how can you put it in my name?" Hearing this, the Xu family also felt that they had taken advantage of Su Chenyu, and shook their heads in refusal.
Su Chenyu said: "Qibao, Grandpa Xu, don't thank me. This is the money my cousin gave to Qibao. I was just running errands."
Everyone looked at Jing Chen, and Mrs. Lin said: "Mr. Jing, you'd better take back this shop. Our family can't take it."
Jing Chen spoke: "Aunt Lin, you don't have to be polite, this barbecue restaurant is a joint venture between us and Qibao, it doesn't matter whose name it's under, not to mention the fact that I have been living in the Xu family, and that you guys treat me like your own son, so it's kind of a token of my appreciation, don't ever shrug it off."
Qibao felt that this was the most words Jing Chen had ever said at one time. During this time together, she had already changed her name to calling him brother Jingchen. The two of them often, go hunting in the mountains. Qibao feels that he must have experienced a lot of ups and downs at such a young age. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so silent, compared to her brothers, he was really steady and unlike what a child should be, and for no reason at all, it made people's hearts ache.
Wang also spoke: "Jing Chen, you were injured because of Qibao. We should take care of you. We didn't do anything. This gift is too valuable."
Jing Chen did not speak anymore, and his stubborn look left the others speechless.
Elder Xu spoke up: "Since it's a token of Jingchen's affection, we'll accept it, and treat Jingchen like our own child in the future." The Xu family nodded in agreement.
Qibao said: "Brother Jing Chen, thank you for the gift you gave me. I like it very much." When Jingchen heard the little girl say that she liked the gift he gave, he curled his lips happily.
Mrs. Zhang said: "Then when can we open a barbecue restaurant?"
Qibao said: "First of all, we have to change the name, and the current decoration inside is not suitable for barbecue business. We have to change the decoration style."
Su Chenyu said: "Qibao, have you thought about what kind of decoration style should we change?"
Qibao said: "Let's think of a name first and make the plaque first. Let's advertise first to tell others that Yipinxian has changed its owner. Let others remember the name first. I want to go to the shop and make a good arrange."
Everyone thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any good name. Qibao said: "Otherwise, we call it Iron Triangle Barbecue. It just means that the relationship between the three of us will become better and stronger in the future. How about it?"
Su Chenyu's eyes lit up and said: "Good, then let's name it this way, then when do we leave for town?"
Qibao smiled and said: "Let's go now. I can't wait to see my first shop!"
Elder Xu said: "Then leave the second and third child at home, we'll go together to see our old Xu family's first property in town, we'll see if we can help, the eldest will go just in time to pick up the children from school in the evening!" Xu Laoer brothers also want to go to see, but the house can't be without people, the greenhouse still needs them to supervise, so they agreed to go.
The group also didn't have a bullock cart, and it just so happened that Su Chenyu and Jing Chen's carriage had enough space, so they rode together in the carriage to the town.
Wang said: "This carriage is different. Not only is it stable, but it is also fast. This is my first time riding in a carriage!"
Qibao said: "What's the point? If our family wants to buy a carriage, why don't we just buy it? It's not like our family doesn't have the strength." Looking at Qibao's proud look, everyone laughed.
Elder Xu smiled and said: "Look how atmospheric my good granddaughter is, then grandpa will be waiting to sit in the carriage bought by Qibao." Qibao patted her chest and assured her, the crowd laughed again.
In the carriage in front, Jing Chen felt better as he listened to the little girl talking and laughing behind him, and his eyebrows softened.
Su Chenyu said: "Cousin, it looks like you're having a great time at the Xu family, how's it going? You were never this relaxed in the capital, were you? You're always on the lookout for this or that! But when are you going back? If you don't go back, that person is going to send someone to take you back!"
When Jing Chen heard this, his face turned dark and he said: "He has nothing to do with my affairs!"
Su Chenyu continued: "What about your grandmother?"
Jing Chen was silent for a long time and said: "There is no whereabouts of the ginseng yet, I sent Nightwind and the others to ask around to look for it, but there are just no clues yet, when the barbecue restaurant stabilizes, I'll have to go back no matter if there's any news or not."
When everyone arrived at the door of the restaurant, Qibao took the key from Su Chenyu's hand and opened the door. The inside was deserted and not as crowded as before. Qibao took a look at the entire store.
She called everyone together to discuss: "I'm going to put the counter in the doorway, paint the walls of the hall the color of gray on the bottom and white on the top, and I'm going to have custom grill pans made, and I'm going to replace all these tables. I'm going to need tables that need a hole hollowed out in the middle the size of an iron plate, and the grill pans to be lower than the table tops, and the table holes to be wrapped with copper, and underneath. I'm gonna have to set up a shelf to hold a small fireplace, and then make a space to keep it insulated, to prevent the customers from getting accidentally burn themselves."
Su Chenyu said: "Then let's make the grill pan first, and work out the table based on the size of the grill pan, I'll now get someone, to find someone to pull everything away from here and find someone to redecorate." After saying that, he ordered the secret guards in the back to find someone to settle this matter.
Qibao planned to stay in town for the next two days to finish the decoration of the store. She also had another plan. She planned to graffiti on the wall and draw some cute little animals or little people from her previous life.
Elder Xu asked: "Then it's too bad that these tables and chairs are thrown away, they're all made of good wood."
Qibao said: "Otherwise, we will give this table to our relatives and villagers so that it will not be wasted."
Wang said: "This is a good idea. The villagers must be very happy."
Su Chenyu said: "I'll have someone send it to Xujia Village later, whoever needs it will move it themselves, this will also save us the trouble." Since the matter has been agreed upon, the following is waiting for people to come over and pull away all the unwanted things.
After a while, the secret guard led a few people dressed as villagers to move all the tables to several carriages he rented, filled them all and set off towards Xujia Village.
Qibao said: "I guess we'll have to make another trip, let's go to the kitchen first and see if there's anything we need to change."
Everyone came to the backyard and entered the kitchen. Wang said: "This kitchen is really big. It can be more than enough for a dozen people to work."
Qibao said: "When the time comes, we should find a few cooks with good knife skills, specializing in slicing meat, which must be sliced evenly about the same size to be able to do so, but also to find a few women specializing in collecting plates and washing dishes, washing and cutting vegetables, a kitchen will have to recruit more than a dozen people."
