Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 215

   Chapter 215 No Fragrance

  Lin Hao and Qi Qiong stood in the crowd watching the excitement, and quickly heard the general situation.

   The restaurant's surname is Liu. Because of the smallpox and a few pimples on his face, he has been called Liu Mazi over time, and the name of the restaurant "Liu Ma Noodle Restaurant" comes from this.

  Liu Ma Noodle House was originally a small family shop, with a mediocre taste and a mediocre business, barely maintaining a family life. When Liu Dalang was eight or nine years old, Liu's wife died of illness. Later, Liu Mazi got married to fill the house, and he is now the proprietress.

   The proprietress was a widow who remarried, with a daughter who was only a few years old. At that time, people thought that the family would have a hard time in the future. Unexpectedly, the proprietress made noodles, and the business of the noodle restaurant was getting better and better. The Liu family turned from a very ordinary family to a little rich.

"This Liu Dalang is outrageous. Although the Liu family is a stepmother, he is no worse than his own mother. I remember that when his mother died, this child had a big nose all day long, and his face was not clean. The clothes are even more tattered. Since the Liu family came, I have only looked like a man. I didn't expect to grow up and make such a mess..."

There are also people who have different opinions: "You can't say that. Liu Mazi is about to die. For such a big noodle restaurant, you are willing to let your stepmother hold everything inside and out? Liu Dalang is the eldest son born before, and inherits the noodle restaurant as a matter of course. ."

"Too."

  Lin Hao listened silently, whether he thought that Liu Dalang treated his stepmother too much, or that it was not uncommon for his stepmother and stepson to have disputes, but his views on the noodle restaurant were surprisingly unified: if Liu Mazi was gone, of course the noodle restaurant should be given to Liu Dalang.

Therefore, listening to the growing noise in the noodle shop, the neighbors did not come forward to persuade them, but many people were worried about the taste of the noodle shop: "If the Liu family doesn't manage the noodle shop, the noodle taste will not work, right? "

   "Didn't you hear that, since Liu Mazi was ill, Liu's family didn't spend that much time in the noodle shop, so she has already found a master to replace her."

  Lin was so surprised.

  No wonder the noodles tasted a little worse this time. It turned out to be a different person.

   "Go home and take care of my father!" With a roar from Liu Dalang, the proprietress was pushed out.

  The little girl ran out to help the proprietress, crying: "Mother, are you alright?"

  The proprietress stood up straight and straightened her messy hair: "Mother is fine. Duo'er, let's go home."

  The woman led the little girl out, and laughter came from the familiar noodle shop behind her.

   There is a neighbor who has a good relationship with the woman and persuaded: "Liu's family, go back and spend more time with Bao'er's father. Dalang has grown up, and he will be in charge sooner or later."

  The proprietress smiled: "Yes...I just want to let the new master get acquainted again..."

  Lin Hao looked at the woman's somewhat lonely back, and thought about catching up.

   "Auntie wait a minute."

   The proprietress held her daughter and looked at her suspiciously.

   "I just had noodles at a noodle shop."

  The proprietress nodded: "I remember. What's the matter with the girl calling me?"

  Lin Hao paused for a while, and hurriedly said: "Auntie, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you can go to Lin's house..."

   She reported the detailed address of Lin's house and returned to Qi Qiong in the astonished eyes of the proprietress.

   On the way back in the carriage, Qi Qiong asked curiously, "Ah, what did you say to the proprietress?"

"It's just to make it difficult for her to find someone from our family." Lin Hao thought about Liu Dalang's vicious appearance, and felt that the future of the mother and daughter was not optimistic, "That Liu Dalang has no conscience. When his father dies, let alone the noodle shop, it's just There is not necessarily room for their mother and daughter at home, of course it is best if they can't go that far."

   For the sake of profit, anyone who is related by blood may be calculated to death, let alone a stepmother. Now that she has met, she just needs to say a word.

   "Well, you are really kind."

   Qi Qiong told Princess Jing about this when he returned to the palace.

  Prince Jing was relieved from the depression that Sun Xiuhua had come to visit, and hurriedly instructed her maid: "Send some baskets of loquats and peaches that Zhuangzishang has newly brought to the General's House."

   If it's not that the whole family does not enter the house, this daughter-in-law is a good find.

  Princess Jing thought that she had the idea of ​​keeping Sun Xiuhua in the palace for a kiss, and she was afraid and heartbroken for a while.

   Receiving the melons and fruits sent by Prince Jing's mansion, the old lady smiled: "Princess Jing is easy to get along with."

   Lin took a bite of the juicy peach and nodded: "Yes, this peach is sweeter than the one sent from our village."

  Old lady: "..." Fortunately, my daughter doesn't need to be a mother-in-law.

   It was halfway through June, and the signboard of Lin Kee Fragrance Shop on Wanqing Street was changed, and a shop called "No Fragrance" opened.

  The crackling of firecrackers attracted the attention of passers-by and nearby businesses.

   "No fragrance? The name of this shop is so strange, what does it sell?"

  There is never a shortage of curious people in the world, especially those who come to go shopping, and their curiosity is extraordinarily rich. After watching for a while, people stepped on the firecracker skin and walked in one after another.

  Behind the counter is a charming female shopkeeper, two neatly dressed little girls standing by the door, and an old woman sitting silently in the corner.

   "What's for sale here?"

   "Selling flower dew." The little girl who spoke was Chun Ni, one of the girls that Lin Hao rescued from the kidnappers.

   When he heard the flower dew, most of the people who came in hulla walked away, and the rest asked freshly, "What kind of flower dew is there?"

   It was the younger girl who spoke this time: "There are rose dew and jasmine dew."

   Hearing that there were only two kinds of flower dew, many people left.

   They are all selling flower dew, why not go to the opposite side to buy it. People's Huaxiangrong is not only flower dew, but also rouge eyebrows, sachets and incense balls, and everything you want to buy.

  The shop was quite empty, and someone asked, "How do you sell it?"

   "A bottle of rose dew is five taels of silver, and a bottle of jasmine dew is two taels of silver." Chun Ni said crisply.

   "It's more expensive than Huaxiangrong, is this stealing money?" The rest of the people scolded and walked away, including the one who stepped in.

   It was mixed with those sent from the other side to inquire about the situation, and he was happy when he returned to Huaxiangrong: "It's just a speciality of flower dew, a kind of rose dew, a kind of jasmine dew, there are no more of them, and they are still expensive."

   Hua Xiangrong's shopkeeper was completely relieved after hearing this: "Don't worry about it, what to do."

   With this kind of flower shop, if he can last for a month, he will lose.

   What made the shopkeeper even more happy was that the firecrackers set off on the opposite side attracted a lot of people, but they didn't keep them, and a lot of people walked into Huaxiangrong by the way.

   The good mood of the shopkeeper did not last long, and the man ran in to report: "The shopkeeper, a gorgeous carriage came and parked on the side of the road, and the girl who got off the carriage went to the opposite side."

   "Don't make a fuss."

   After a while, the guy ran in again: "Another carriage!"

   The shopkeeper frowned.

   After a while, the man looked blank: "The shopkeeper, the carriages that are coming can't stop!"

   The shopkeeper couldn't sit still.

   No, he's going to have a look!
