Because I saw that Zhang Zihan's new drama is about to start filming. Zhang Zihan is an actor who has worked with Zhao Qian in two dramas. But will the two of them collaborate in the new drama

Li Wei was eager to know the cast, so she went to the post office and used her savings to subscribe to a year's issue of "Metropolis Weekend" and left the address as her own store's door number.

After Chen Da left, the store was short of manpower. Liu Liang came over from Yongning a few days ago and said he was here to help.

A scoundrel left and a gentleman came. Li Jianping felt unhappy.

Liu Chunzhi devoted her whole life to her mother's family. Now they are short of people. Unlike the previous snack bar, which was a fortress and difficult to fill, she discussed with her husband and son: "It's a good thing that A Liang comes to help, so let him help."

Li Minghua said: "We spend money to hire an uncle to support him. I'm afraid that someone like him can't afford to have another store."

Liu Chunzhi said unhappily: "My eldest brother only has a son. Let's help take care of him. Let him suffer a little and become sensible."

"Efforts, you think he looks like he can endure hardships with his fat head and big ears? We don't owe your brother any more money. This favor has been paid off long ago."

Liu Chunzhi got angry after hearing her husband's words: "What you said is too callous. My eldest brother is injured in his foot now and can't do heavy work. Isn't it a good thing that A Liang is willing to come out? In the early years when our family was poor, my eldest brother helped a lot. How much has your biological brother helped us? As long as he doesn't cause any trouble for us, what's the point of helping us? ”

Li Minghua couldn't talk to his wife, but he felt uncomfortable. He thought Liu Liang was already eighteen and still a child? There is no such big child.

At Liu Chunzhi's strong request, Liu Liang stayed and helped with chores, and was also given a monthly salary of two hundred.

Liu Liang was still happy to help his aunt's shop, but he was not very motivated. He had to be pushed to do any work every day. There is only one thing that he is diligent about, and that is teasing Wang Yulan.

Li Jianping couldn't stand Liu Liang's tone, and once warned Liu Liang: "Colleagues are not allowed to laugh or fight while working."

Liu Liang's face cooled down in an instant, and he was unconvinced, wondering why you were so arrogant.

It was extremely cold on the winter solstice. Wang Yulan's parents came to the city to do errands and visit their daughter. After Liu Chunzhi found out, she tried her best to invite the two elders of the Wang family to the restaurant to eat hot pot. She asked Li Jianping to save a table and a bottle of good wine. She knew that Wang Yulan's father liked to drink.

Liu Chunzhi's intention was very obvious, but Li Jianping did not do much to stop him. Wang Yulan has been helping in the store for more than two months. She has done all the dirty and hard work. She is much better than those small workers who are hard-working. In addition to the work in the store, I also help with a lot of things at home.

Wang Yulan's simplicity and hard work touched Li Jianping to a certain extent, and he also had his own plans.

Yulan's parents came into the city early in the morning, took a look at their daughter, and then went busy to do errands. By the time I finished my errands and bought some things, it was already 12 noon. The Li family invited them to dinner, which was naturally something they wished for.

"Minghua, your family has made a lot of money. This bright and open front is so beautiful." Wang Yulan and her father Wang Jianguo stood outside the store and praised in a loud voice.

Li Minghua felt a little ashamed after hearing the compliment, and hurriedly came out to greet Wang Jianguo.

"Jianguo, let's go in and talk."

Yulan's mother was having a long chat with Liu Chunzhi about their family affairs. Yulan's mother didn't see Li Wei and Jianbo, so she asked curiously: "Where is your second child? Where is Weiwei?"

Liu Chunzhi said: "Weiwei is still in school, Jianbo..." Liu Chunzhi said with some embarrassment: "He went abroad."

Yulan's mother was surprised: "Going abroad?" Apparently she hadn't quite understood yet, so Liu Chunzhi smiled even more awkwardly: "That's it... that... he wants to go abroad and make a career."

"Your family is really amazing. You have opened such a big shop and trained your son to go abroad. At the beginning of the year, I heard people in the village say that they saw Weiwei on TV, but is it true?"

Liu Chunzhi sneered and said, "Hey, that's it."

Yulan's mother was so surprised that she couldn't even close her mouth. She thought about how the Li family suddenly became rich? But I have only been in the city for a few years, and I only heard about opening a snack bar with only a few tables. How long has it been since I earned such a big business

"Did your family find gold?"

This asked Liu Chunzhi what to say, so she pulled Yulan's mother and said, "You guys have been shopping for a long time. You must be hungry. Come and try our hot pot."

The store was closed for business at this time, so it was very deserted. Li Jianping reserved a private room and brought a mandarin duck pot bottom. Fresh beef, mutton, lamb tripe, duck intestines, ribs and other ingredients are placed on the table one after another.

As soon as the base material is boiled, the rich aroma will hit your nostrils and whet your appetite.

Li Minghua and Liu Chunzhi kept company, and Li Jianping came in and out to help deliver things. He did not participate in the parents' conversations. Wang Yulan is still busy chopping vegetables in the kitchen.

Liu Chunzhi asked Jianping to call Yulan out.

After a while, Yulan came out, and Liu Chunzhi greeted her hurriedly: "Yulan, don't be busy now, stay with your parents for a while."

Yulan sat down with some embarrassment. Yulan's mother had not seen her daughter for more than two months. Seeing that her daughter was whiter than when she was at home, and her face was fleshy, she said happily: "Yulan is well taken care of by you. We are relieved.”

Liu Chunzhi said: "She is very hard-working and not picky about anything. Bi Weiwei is so caring. I like her very much."

Liu Chunzhi praised Yulan in front of Yulan's parents, which made her a little embarrassed. Wang Jianguo and Li Minghua were already drunk. They are both from the same village, and they can be regarded as brothers who grew up together. After not seeing each other for a long time, there is endless talk.

Not long after, Li Jianping came over and toasted the two elders with a glass of wine. Wang Jianguo drank it happily, praised Jianping highly, and said that he would let Yulan's younger brother come out to work with Jianping in the future.

Yulan's mother ate some of each dish. It tasted good, the dishes were fresh, and there were many meat dishes. She was very satisfied with the meal. Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Chunzhi whispered to Yulan's mother: "Brother and sister, let Brother Wang and the others have a drink without disturbing them. Let's talk freely while we do it."

Yulan’s mother quickly agreed.

Liu Chunzhi took Yulan's mother to another room. Liu Chunzhi brought out two bottles of drinks to treat Yulan's mother to drink. She felt that the time was almost up, so she spoke: "Sister, I have something to discuss with you. Don't listen to me, sister." Angry."

Yulan's mother's heart skipped a beat, and she secretly wondered what kind of trouble Yulan had gotten into here
