Chapter 143 Could it be the master?

It is also because the weather is getting hotter and hotter, so everyone spends more and more time together at night.

Set up a big table in the courtyard, eating snacks, talking and laughing, talking about the day's affairs, the shopkeeper Lu's family is not here, so the excitement is a little less.

She is currently busy with Ruyi's marriage. The Qin family accepted the marriage. The two families discussed it. The marriage will be booked on the 26th of this month.

The shopkeeper Lu did not act recklessly this time, but discussed it with Mayor Qian.

He also has a good impression of the Qin family, they are all from the same town, and they all know each other well, Lao Qian is also very pleased, through Ruxin's matter, San Niang knows to discuss with him, it seems that she can marry her back soon home.

The Qian family has already separated. He is the fourth house of the Qian family. He is the only one who has not married a wife and had children. The other houses have a lot of children and grandchildren.

He also didn't want to argue with that wretched old man. He is forty-six, and the old man is seventy-six. Here, if he is over seventy, it is considered a happy funeral. Once he dies, he will propose marriage to San Niang in a few months. .

Someone asked, why didn't he go to wait on his father who was about to die of illness?

What are you going to do? The time to work for the old man is shorter, so he doesn't bother him.

Because of their marriage, the two had lost their father-son relationship long ago.

It's not that shopkeeper Lu is bad, it's that his father dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and looks down on shopkeeper Lu. Because of this, he doesn't let him marry her.

Mayor Qian is also stubborn, he won’t marry anyone if he is not allowed to marry him, just stay single like this.

The boss is more stubborn than him, and I won't let you marry her if you're alone, and the two of them have been dragging on like this.

Qiao Mai knew what shopkeeper Lu was doing, she didn't want to talk too much, she would do it when Lu Sanniang needed her, and took care of housework at home if she didn't need her.

Ruyi added makeup, she gave Ruyi as much as she gave to Ruxin at the beginning, as for Fangzi, she didn't want to worry about it, so as not to cause trouble later on, and she couldn't tell if she had a mouth.

Thinking of the space, Ruxin's pile of dowry, she threw it directly into the courtyard where Ruxin lived on a dark and windy night.

There was a loud bang, and everyone in the yard woke up. Ruxin's girl and mother-in-law came out to take a look, and almost screamed with joy.

"Miss, miss, it's your dowry."

Ru Xin couldn't believe it, she came out to check carefully, and it was true, her tears burst like a bank in an instant.

"Could it be Master?"

Up to now, she seems to understand what she has lost.

Master once said that you have to support yourself and make the decision. If that scumbag failed you, Master will definitely vent your anger on yourself.

Master knows martial arts, and Master did it. It was she who helped her keep the dowry away to prevent those bad guys from succeeding in their schemes.

"Master, Xin'er is sorry for you."

Qiu Mai, who was hiding in the dark, looked at this scene coldly. It was his own principle to do things from the beginning to the end, and now it was considered a mentor-student relationship.

In mid-May, the weather is hot and dry. This season is the most prone to fires in the south.

People who fled often appeared on the official roads. Under the leadership of the officials, they were arranged to various villages. Qiao Mai asked people to set up porridge sheds on the roads, and the cook at home kept steaming Erhe noodles.

The porridge shed opens once a day, with two large pots of porridge and hundreds of steamed buns, and it will end when there are no more.

Mayor Qian was not far behind, and also set up a porridge shed on the side of his door, and some families who had a better life also followed suit.

Let the fleeing people have a full meal and breathe, knowing that they have settled down in the surrounding villages. Qiao Mai also promised that after they settle down, each family will receive 50 catties of cornmeal from home with their household registration.

In a short time, Qiao Mai's name spread all over the country.

Many needy families also wanted to come and collect them. After checking with Mayor Qian, Qiao Mai didn't let them go empty-handed.

After the Qiao family, Tian family, and Yuan family knew about this matter, they gritted their teeth against Qiao Mai.

I would rather donate things to those I don’t know than to give them or let them get a little bit of glory, it’s really possible.

Not only will they not be given to them, but those from Qiaojia Village, Licha Village, and Xinghua Village will not be given to anyone in these three villages.

Why? If there was no good cause at the beginning, why would it bear good fruit?

They also tried to ask their family members to bring their household registrations to pick them up. The wife of the Qiao family immediately refused when she saw that it belonged to these three families.

"My master said that if you throw away things, you won't give them to your enemies."

To be honest, the three of them can still afford to eat. It is understandable for the Tian family to be nervous about providing for people to study. The Qiao family does nothing but point at the few acres of land and feel ashamed to do odd jobs. Those two old things are just trying to pick up a bargain every day.

If you have nothing to do, you can encourage this one to fight against the Qiao family, and encourage that one to find trouble for the Qiao family, who is as stupid as these two.

The Qiao family is also what they can do right? You mother can't do anything with them, we can do it?

Many people left as soon as they saw these two people coming, and no one wanted to talk to them.

It’s okay to eat enough every day, but I don’t know what to do.

When they are free, they come to Tianshui Town to wander around, even the two old guys from the Qiao family, knowing that one is the father and mother of the son-in-law of the Qiao family, and the other is the father and mother of the daughter-in-law of the Yuan family, so they talk a lot when they meet.

It's rare that the Yuan family's Zhou Papi is willing to spend money, and it's in the pergola at the door of Qiao's shop, right under Qiao Mai's nose.

I ordered a few cups of milk tea for the old couple of the Qiao family. They just wanted to slap Qiao Mai and the Yuan family in the face.

Shopkeeper Niu told Qiao Mai about this, and she laughed.

"Follow them, just pay for milk tea, as long as you don't make trouble"

"Yes, my lord, you see the weather is hot, what about our milk tea?"

"This thing can be used as a cold drink. Let it cool down. Put a few pieces of ice in it. It's also very refreshing to drink. Let the buddy replace the tea in it with green tea."

"yes"

The shopkeeper Niu left. Qiao Mai thought of a delicious cold drink, so he entered the space, picked half a basket of lemons, half a basket of small green oranges, a basket of passion fruit, and a jar of honey.

Go to the small kitchen and start tinkering. She is going to make a jar of passion fruit lemon honey and take it to the store for a trial sale.

After I was done, I went to the shop, skipped the two pairs of old goods outside and went inside.

At this time, the guys were cutting the ice. She put the jar on the counter, found a bowl and a spoon, took out a spoonful of passion fruit from the jar, put it in the bowl, put a handful of ice cubes on it, and poured it to cool.

What a headache, there is no straw, what can I use instead?

Her eyes lit up, the reed pole is empty in the middle, and it is as long as a bundle, so it must be able to attract.

The reeds in the surrounding wasteland are definitely not good. The first is the sanitation problem, which is not clean enough. The second is that there are many short ones and few that meet the standards.

Let’s grow it ourselves, one mu of land is enough.

Now she can only stir it with a spoon and take a sip.

"The taste is not bad, especially refreshing."

The shopkeeper Niu and the five shop assistants swallowed their saliva, and Qiao Mai hurriedly directed them.

"Take a bowl and try it, just like I did just now, except for the few outside, all other guests have a share."

"Thank you!"

After drinking the icy passion fruit honey water, many people couldn't help but want to have another bowl.

Qiao Mai told shopkeeper Niu, "Anyone who comes to our store to buy something today will get a bowl of drink for each person. From tomorrow onwards, a bowl of cold drink will be priced at fifty cents."

"Yes, master!"

The five employees of Qiaoji snack shop each have several recipes in their hands, and now they are the main force in the shop.

Business Manager Niu is thinking of buying two more guys to specialize in selling goods, and let them specialize in making goods in the back.

Master, there are so many new things, it's like they don't know when they will come out.

It's a little dangerous to be in the hands of one guy. It's not because they are afraid that they will leak it, but because they are afraid that someone with a heart will come and **** it.

It is robbing, not buying, nor digging, it is blatantly robbing.

Now this row of shops has not been rented out, and the one on the south side has been vacated by beggars, just as the shopkeeper Niu wants to expand the shop again.

Qiao Mai also agreed, as long as the business is booming, he can do whatever the shopkeeper does.
