Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 255

The crowd outside the hall had gradually dispersed, and as they left they were still discussing the play they had watched today.

There were only Wei and Xie Hai left in the restaurant, so Zhong Ruyi simply gave them a day off. It was already mid-afternoon anyway and it was almost time to close the restaurant.

When it was almost dark, Sun Tao and others came back with smiles of joy on their faces that were difficult to conceal.

"Boss! We sold our houses and land! We exchanged them for silver, and we also got back the silver that Old Lady Jiang sold us!" Sun Tao said in a loud voice.

She was really happy. She had thought that it would be troublesome today when the Jiang family came to her house, but she didn't expect that filing a lawsuit would lead to such a good result!

Jiang Rong, Jiang Qin and the other two couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.

Zhong Ruyi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "You have already settled in Xinghua Village, and you will be residents of Xinghua Village from now on. It would be tiring to run back and forth between Jiangjia Village and Xinghua Village. This is the best!"

A few days after bringing them back, Zhong Ruyi asked the village chief to help them settle down in Xinghua Village.

It would be even better if they could get back all the things they had from the Jiang family now.

To celebrate their getting back what belonged to them, Zhong Ruyi decided to give them two days off so that they could have a good rest.

Sun Tao quickly refused, "No, no! Boss, I'm very motivated now! I can't wait to finish three days' work! If you don't let me work, I'll feel empty inside."

All right, she said so, and Zhong Ruyi followed her lead, "Then you and Jiang Qin go to work, Jiang Rong and Jiang Yun take a rest."

Jiang Qin smiled foolishly and nodded, Jiang Rong and Jiang Yun also had silly smiles on their faces.

For them, today was like a dream.

They filed a complaint against Old Lady Jiang to the county magistrate, and not only did she receive a fair verdict, she also got back all the things that had been taken away from her.

This would make them even happier than when Old Lady Jiang was beaten with a stick.

You can't blame them for being cold-blooded. It's because this old woman is so selfish and heartless. She only thinks about her own children. She is completely cruel to people like Jiang Dalang and Jiang Qin.

Chen Dongzhi slept in the escort agency for a few days until Zhong Ruyi finally decided to go back and left with him.

After he left, Escort Duan looked at the two men walking away and scratched his head in confusion, "Why did Brother Zhong disappear as soon as he came back?"

Others also found it strange, but didn't think anything else about it.

Dafeng smiled and said, "Maybe he went back home because of something. Brother Duan, what do you want to see him about?"

"Oh, my wife has a cousin who is sixteen years old this year. We are planning to meet her. I have been getting to know Brother Zhong for a few days and I feel that he is a good guy. I want to ask him if he is interested in this. If he is, let's have them meet and see if they like each other." Escort Master Duan honestly expressed his thoughts.

"Brother Duan, why didn't you tell me earlier!" Dafeng said in surprise, "Look at me! I'm not bad either!"

"You?" Escort Master Duan frowned and looked at him. "Young girls like handsome men. You are not handsome at all. You can barely be considered a person."

Da Feng looked hurt. "Brother Duan, we have been together for such a long time. Can't you only see my appearance and not my beautiful heart? And how is Brother Xiao Si more handsome than me? It's not like you didn't see the big mole on his face."

"Get lost! Who wants to see your inner heart! Even if he has a mole, he is still more handsome than you!" Master Duan drove the man away with a look of irritation on his face, and then asked Dongzhi when his cousin would come again to see if he could make this good thing happen.

Several people returned to the village before dark, and the Zhong family had just finished dinner.

Seeing them coming back, Li Guihua hurried to the kitchen to cook noodles for them. Zhong Ruyi quickly stopped her and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry. Help Tiedan take a bath first. I will cook the noodles myself."

Because several people came back, Li Guihua originally wanted to give Tiedan a bath before going to bed, but now she saw Tiedan sitting naked in the wooden tub playing with water.

That's fine. Li Guihua turned around and fetched a bucket of water that had been heated during the day and poured it on Tiedan.

Zhong Ruyi asked Chen Dongzhi to go into the main room and sit for a while while she went to make a few bowls of noodles.

but.

She glanced at Zhang Mingzhu who was diligently pouring water for Chen Dongzhi.

Why is this person still here?

She thought Zhang Mingzhu should have returned home this time, but she didn't expect that she was still here.

Jiang Rong went in to help her, and Jiang Yun went back to his room to pack his things.

The two of them still slept with Zhong Ruyi. Although no one was sleeping in the room these days, Li Guihua and Liu Yuniang would come in to clean every one or two days, so the room was very clean.

After putting the clothes away, the noodles were ready when Jiang Yun came out.

Father Zhong looked at his daughter with a distressed look on his face, "I told you not to go, but you've lost a lot of weight in the past few days since you went there."

He didn't know yet that the Jiang family had come to his house to cause trouble, and that the matter had ended up at the government office.

Zhong Ruyi scooped a spoonful of chili sauce for Chen Dongzhi, slurped a mouthful of noodles, and said vaguely, "How can I lose weight? I think I am just right like this."

Chen Dongzhi disagreed, "She'd look better if she was a little fatter."

"That's right!" Father Zhong, who had been silent, immediately spoke loudly as if he had found an ally.

Okay, I won’t talk to you two anymore.

Zhong Ruyi lowered her head and ate the noodles in big mouthfuls.

Zhang Mingzhu was so anxious watching from the side that people who didn’t know her would think she wanted to have a try too.

After eating the noodles, Chen Dongzhi said a few words to Zhong’s father and stood up to leave.

Father Zhong nodded and said, "Go back soon. Thank you for taking care of Ruyi during this period of time."

"It's not hard."

Zhong Ruyi stood up to see him out, but Zhang Mingzhu suddenly jumped up like a spring and said, "Let me see the guest out!"

Chen Dongzhi ignored her, took Zhong Ruyi's hand and went out, and the two talked for a while at the door.

"I don't even want to talk about your cousin," he said with an expression that was hard to describe. "She rolls her eyes at me every time. I don't know what I did to offend her."

Roll your eyes?

Zhong Ruyi felt a little confused, "Why would she roll her eyes at you for no reason?"

"I don't know either. Anyway, I've seen her like this many times. Well, it's a good thing you don't do this to me." Chen Dongzhi shook his head with a look of grievance and shook her hand.

Before going to bed at night, Zhong Ruyi had just finished chatting with her sister-in-law about the volume of orders from the Yu and Fang families during the days when she was away, and whether there were enough staff in the workshop.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Jiang Rong was closest and went over to open the door.

It was Zhang Mingzhu. She stuck her head in and looked around.

Seeing that no one in the room wanted to pay attention to her, she pouted and asked, "Cousin, can I come in?"

Zhong Ruyi looked back at her and said nothing.

Li Guihua whispered in her ear, "She has been very normal at home these days, rushing to do all the work."

However, she started to act a little abnormal after my younger sister came back tonight. Li Guihua didn't say this, but my younger sister could feel it herself.
