After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 224

Su Mo really forgot Gu Xingnian's birthday.

Who made Gu Xingnian's birthday be the only one at the end of February, and one month after her birthday was Gu Jingting's, Ning Nanqing's and Gu Dalang's memorial day, the original owner hated Gu Xingnian because of this, he was going to die, and he never gave it to her Birthday, which also made Su Mo not much impressed.

On the contrary, Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian's birthdays were close, and Su Mo had just arrived in this world at that time, so he wanted to get closer to the children, so he kept it in mind.

But to be honest, even if she didn't remember Gu Xingnian's birthday, there were already signs of it.

It's like Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian were messing with things secretly these past two days, and they didn't let her see it, or yesterday, when Su Mo said that he was going out, the little girl covered her mouth and laughed, and obediently said that she wouldn't come to make trouble.

Even Gu Qinhan didn't know if he got wind of it from Gu Ping'an, asked him to borrow money, and then asked her to help buy some sweet pastries.

Su Mo rubbed the space between her brows, she only felt that she was busy with outside affairs, but instead became confused about her own family. She didn't think much about the obvious behavior of the family.

Yuzhu also didn't expect that Su Mo didn't remember Gu Xingnian's birthday, she turned her head away in embarrassment, pretending to be fascinated by the scenery beside her.

The bullock cart soon arrived at the county seat.

There were people coming and going on the street, Su Mo didn't even need to recall the address Zhou Shanxiu had said, just stood on the street for a while, and heard many people talking about the newly opened food shops in the county.

There are even three or five people who go together to Zhou Shanxiu's newly opened shop, saying that it is the first three days of the new shop's opening, queue up in advance to get a number, the first ten tables are free, and the eleventh to forty tables are half price.

This gimmick was indeed attractive enough, Su Mo simply followed the crowd, walking behind those who were walking in groups.

With them opening the way, it didn't look so crowded, and Su Mo soon arrived at the door of Zhou Shanxi's shop.

The shop is larger than Li's shop, and the decoration is relatively luxurious. The guys wear the same style of clothes, with decent smiles on their faces, and they are very comfortable when entertaining guests, obviously they have been carefully trained .

But it's also true, the place Zhou Shanxiu chose is different from Li's. His place is East Street, and most of the people who live there are rich and powerful. The shop is small, the decoration is simple, and the service is poor.

Su Mo looked away from the inside, then raised her eyes slightly, and looked up. The plaque was the same as the one opened by Mrs. Li, "Chen's Mala Tang", which was easy to understand.

The only difference is that there is a small line in the lower right corner: No. [-] Branch in Haiyan County.

Zhou Xiaoliu was also standing at the door. The clothes on his body were different from those of the other guys, with auspicious clouds embroidered on the cuffs and chest, which made him look more delicate.

As Zhou Shanxie's nephew, seeing that he was about to start a family again, Zhou Shanxio naturally wouldn't let him be a clerk in the store, but arranged for him to be in charge of all the clerks in the store.

It's just that the shop is busy at this time, and he is not needed to entertain guests, so he came to the front and delivered small bamboo slips to the people in line.

The serial number is engraved on the bamboo slips, and when there is a space inside, a clerk will come over to say hello to him, and then he will call his number to the booklet, and the guests can go in to eat with the bamboo slips, and they can also get rice wine or scented tea for free with the bamboo slips. pot.

There were quite a lot of people in line, Su Mo walked slowly to the side and watched Zhou Xiaoliu busy, but Zhou Xiaoliu didn't notice anything.

It was Zhou Shanxie who wanted to come out to see the situation, and found Su Mo at a glance.

"Madam Gu is here?"

Zhou Shanxi hurried over to meet her, and then patted her nephew, "Why don't you know to invite Mrs. Gu in?"

Zhou Xiaoliu handed the bamboo slips to the customers in line, then raised her head in a daze, seeing Su Mo, she was still a little unresponsive.

Su Mo smiled and said, "Don't blame Xiaoliu, Shopkeeper Zhou. I saw that he was busy, so I quietly walked over here, thinking that he will make a noise when he is free."

"Madam Gu, you are too...too outsider."

Zhou Shanxiu heard what Su Mo said, so naturally he didn't blame his nephew for being ignorant. He raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, inviting Su Mo to go in.

"It's considered a year-end friendship. Besides, I can continue to open the shop thanks to the marriage you mentioned. Next time you come, just tell the shop assistants directly. I have already said hello to them."

Su Mo smiled and said nothing.

Following Zhou Shanxie in, the passers-by were a little curious when they saw Zhou Shanxie bringing someone in, but they just glanced at it when they stamped their feet slightly and called the shopkeeper, and then devoted themselves to their work.

The guy was sensible, and Zhou Shanxi was very happy. He described the details of the shop to Su Mo while walking, and then led her upstairs.

"I specially set up a few private rooms on the second floor. Although women are not very restrained these days, some of your family members are still relatively conservative, and they always wear curtains when they go out.

My shop is on East Street, so I can't help receiving them, if I don't have a box. "

Although Haiyan County is just a county seat, the water here is deep. First of all, because of its geographical location, Haiyan County belongs to the capital of Yanzhou, and Yanzhou is next to Yanzhou. The provincial capital of Yanzhou is the capital.

In addition, the coastal county has the largest wharf in the vicinity, and there are ships coming and going from the capital to Huzhou, and sometimes there are even ships from overseas, who directly trade with merchants from Huzhou or the capital at the wharf here.

Ordinary businessmen, that is, those who have no backing, dare not come to Dongjie to open a shop, for fear of accidentally offending someone, and ending up with nothing but money.

Zhou Shanxiu didn’t dare to open East Street at first, and he couldn’t even rent a shop. Manager Lin of Changhu Commercial Company said that there is already one in West Street, and it’s inevitable that there will be business at one time, so it’s better to go directly to East Street. As for other matters, Steward Lin came forward to help.

When Zhou Shanxiu first found out about this, she was trembling. After all, there are no pies in the sky, only traps.

But fortunately, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Chen Heyun bluntly said that he didn't have to worry about it. There was a deal between them and Mr. Lin. As for the deal, Mrs. Li and the others naturally didn't elaborate.

Zhou Shanxiu pushed open the door of the innermost box, which he specially reserved for Su Mo, "This box has the best location, and you can have a panoramic view of the entire East Street by opening the window."

He led people in with a smile, and helped to pull the chair away, and then opened the window.

Zhou Shanxiu's shop is different from Li's. It's not that customers go to the place where the ingredients are placed to choose and pay, but there is a menu. The customer looks at the menu to choose, and the waiter takes the menu and counts it.

Zhou Shanxiu didn't ask the waiter to come up, and handed over the menu by himself, and let Su Mo look at it with a smile, "I heard from Xiaoliu's sister-in-law that their shop can be opened thanks to your idea, even the recipe It's all from you."

"In fact, I also have selfish intentions."

Su Mo took the menu with a smile, laughing at herself while reading it.

"At that time, I was thinking of sending my child to study, but I was worried about taking it to the county. I wanted to ask my wife to come to my door, but I was afraid that people in the village would gossip.

After thinking about it, it would be better to set up a village school in the village. Firstly, it will accumulate blessings for the family, and secondly, it will avoid watching the children.

But running a village school is too showy, and I’m a widow, so I don’t want to be showy, so I gave my sister-in-law and the others an idea to open a shop..."
