"Okay, don't worry, I have my measure." Zhong Ziqi's gentle smile as always, without any trace of worry, as if nothing could trouble him, made others unconsciously believe it.
"Okay, let's stop here today, there are not many people around, let's go back." After the episode just now, no one cared about the stalls, and many traders looked at them gloatingly, feeling that there was no strong opponent.
That's fine, Zhong Ziqi took the opportunity to close the stall, and he was in no mood to continue.
"Huh? Why did you come back so early today?" Amo Huang asked a few people suspiciously. Uncle Huang also came out of the room when he heard the voice.
"Ah, I have something to do, so I plan to go back early today. This is today's rent." Zhong Ziqi handed four copper coins to Huang Amo, with a smile that could not be seen, only Zhao Ning and Zhao Sheng smiled reluctantly.
After sending the four of them away, Amo Huang turned around and said to Uncle Huang with a serious face: "These children are not right, is something wrong?"
Uncle Huang also frowned, they are all human beings, why can't they tell, Brother Qi is hiding well, but Zhao Sheng and Zhao Ning can't hide things at all, everything is written on their faces to make it clear at a glance.
"I'll go and find out." Uncle Huang flicked his clothes, opened the door and went out. There were many people he knew at the pier, and he would know if he asked.
Amo Huang waited anxiously at home, always feeling uneasy, and Uncle Huang came back after a while, with an ugly face and a trace of sadness.
"How is it? Is something wrong?" Huang Amo asked anxiously, hoping that he was thinking too much.
"I heard that Changshun Restaurant is looking for trouble."
"What? This—what can I do? Poor child! Just live a little longer!!" Huang Amo was shocked, they were all people who lived in the town, and they were too aware of the power in this town.
Jinhua Restaurant is the largest restaurant in the town, and the power behind them is so mysterious that people dare not provoke them. And Changshun Restaurant is an existence that is second only to Jinhua Restaurant, and they also have powerful support behind them, and the county magistrate of Fengyang City is their behind-the-scenes force.
Fengyang City is a city around Qingshui Town. It is some distance away from Qingshui Town. To get there, you need to take the waterway, and the Chang family is a small family there. The reason why they dare to be so unscrupulous is because the Chang family has a good-looking They don't know if the beautiful brother is exaggerating or not, but this brother is favored by the county magistrate and becomes a concubine, and he is almost on an equal footing with his original partner.
This brother got a lot of gold and silver gifts from his family, which made the Chang family more and more arrogant. This brother's younger brother is also a smart guy. Although he is a bit trashy, he still relies on his brother's subsidy to open a restaurant, which is the restaurant in Qingshui Town. If you ask why it doesn't open in Fengyang City, one of the reasons is Fengyang City. The restaurant is still relatively saturated, and the second is that the original wife of the county magistrate also has some influence in Fengyang City, so they opened the restaurant to stay away from Fengyang City, so as not to collide with them.
Now the shopkeeper Chang is also a relative of their Chang family, he is a lazy person, and now that his family is powerful, he starts to run amok. However, Changshun's ability to become the second largest restaurant in Qingshui Town is not without strength. Apart from the signature dishes, many features are obtained through this.
And especially the enemy Jinhua Restaurant, because the business of Jinhua Restaurant can be said to have taken over the whole town, regardless of whether Changshun is the second largest restaurant, only they know the gap between them.
This also led to the fact that all Jinhua Restaurant valued must plan to snatch it. Among them, the people behind Jinhua Restaurant did not show up often. Usually friction and hostility are nothing, but small fights are nothing, but they still dare not really fight. It's the inability to figure it out that makes people afraid.
Now Chang Shun's shopkeeper can be said to be walking sideways in this town, everyone is not afraid, and this brother Qi is in trouble for him.
All the way back to Zhaojia Village in silence. Zhao Ning and Zhao Sheng wanted to go to Zhong Ziqi's place to think of countermeasures, but he refused: "I know how to do it, you go back and tell Zhao Ah that you don't want to take away the dishes, and the rest will be left with you first."
Zhao Ning and Zhao Sheng had a bad premonition in their hearts, and they went home in the last step.
Zhong Ziqi's smiling face, which had been maintained for a whole day, also slowly disappeared.
"Daughter-in-law, don't be unhappy, Zheng'an will protect your daughter-in-law." Zhao Zheng'an worriedly looked at his daughter-in-law who was exuding low pressure. He was not afraid at all, only worried.
"En. I believe in you." Zhong Ziqi smiled absently and walked all the way home.
Zhao Zhengan carefully surrounded Zhong Ziqi and did not dare to disturb him. Zhong Ziqi couldn't find it funny when he saw his appearance, he patted his head, feeling a little disturbed, it was the first time he realized how terrifying this evil force was.
In modern times, there are legal constraints, but no one dares to be so high-profile. In ancient times, the mountains were high and the emperor was far away. For the first time, I felt the sadness of the little people.
But he won't just succumb like this, he doesn't want to be rich, he can always do it in his lifetime, and he will find a way to remove all obstacles one by one.
"Hungry, I'm going to cook." Having figured it out, Zhong Ziqi pulled himself together and walked into the kitchen.
"I'll help my wife." Zhao Zhengan followed suit.
Da Hei and Xiao Hei ran over from outside the house wagging their tails and wanted to follow into the kitchen. Zhao Zheng'an stopped it, and his wife said that they are not allowed in the kitchen, as they will stain the food.
"Wooooow!" Xiao Hei cried out with his big watery eyes open.
"You can't come in, my wife won't let you, go play in the yard." Zhao Zhengan took out a big bone from the cabinet and threw it to them. Da Hei and Xiao Hei immediately stopped worrying about the kitchen, and happily ran away with their bones in their mouths.
Not in the mood to eat at noon, Zhong Ziqi simply made two bowls of cold noodles, boiled two eggs in them, and they were delicious.
After eating, Zhong Ziqi packed the dishes and stood in the bedroom thinking for a while. Start rummaging through boxes and boxes.
Zhao Zheng'an was startled and asked nervously; "Daughter-in-law, what are you looking for, Zheng'an will help you find it!"
"You stand there."
Zhong Ziqi took out the clothes brought over from the last separation, mainly Zhao Zhengan's few rags. Ever since he started setting up a stall, Zhong Ziqi bought a piece of clothing for each of them at the beginning, and then forgot about it. I haven't been willing to throw away my old clothes these days, and now I just need them.
Throw one of them to Zhao Zhengan: "Put it on."
Zhao Zhengan took the clothes and changed them obediently without asking. Zhong Ziqi turned his back on his own. He wanted to go to the city again, but this time he had to keep a low profile so that no one could recognize him.
But after putting on the clothes, Zhong Ziqi could feel how ragged the clothes were, especially the sleeves and hem, which looked like they were made of rough work, and he couldn't help feeling a little distressed in his heart, but he didn't have time to think about it . Wearing another good one over the clothes, Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan went out.
The two went to Uncle Zhao's house in the village first, and Zhong Ziqi didn't want to care about the few copper coins anymore, so he planned to take a carriage into town and make a quick decision.
Uncle Zhao's family has a boy who is already married, and the child is three years old. The family is harmonious and harmonious. When Zhong Ziqi went, the family was sitting at the table eating. Hearing Ming Zhong Ziqi's intention of coming, Second Uncle Zhao got up after eating the last mouthful of rice in the bowl and went to hail the car.
"Brother Qi, have you two eaten yet? Can you eat something here?" Uncle Zhao's family greeted warmly. Their food was the first batch bought by Ahmao Zhao. Later, it was heard that Zhong Ziqi picked it up and returned it. Thank you very much, I think this child is very good.
"No, Ah, the two of us have finished our meal. Eat quickly, I'm interrupting you at noon." Zhong Ziqi smiled embarrassedly.
"Don't bother me if you have any time, come to visit when you have time, and just talk to my Lingzi."
Lingzi is his daughter-in-law, she smiled shyly at Zhong Ziqi when she heard this, and the fat baby in his arms showed a dimple, which made Zhong Ziqi cute.
"Yes, certainly."
At this time, Second Uncle Zhao had already harnessed the carriage, and Zhong Ziqi and the others bid farewell to them and got on the carriage.
