Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 106

Two days later, Chen Dongzhi and his team finished their work at the dock, and it was time to return to the village once every two weeks.

It was getting dark when we arrived at the village entrance. Wang Laizi was still lying on a rock with a grass root in his mouth.

Seeing the Zhong family coming back with the cart, he sat up quickly and stared at them with a sly look.

Zhong Laosan and Chen Dongzhi came back with Zhong Ruyi and the others today. Wang Laizi saw them walking away and followed them quietly.

When Chen Dongzhi arrived at his door, Wang Laizi suddenly ran out from behind him.

"Brother Dongzhi! Brother Dongzhi! Wait for me!"

Chen Dongzhi asked him to go into the yard and talk first. Wang Laizi rubbed his hands embarrassedly and followed him shyly.

When Chen Dongzhi closed the gate and turned around, he saw his expression. He felt as if something was churning in his stomach, as if something was about to come out of his mouth.

"...Please sit down for a moment. I'll get you a glass of water."

Wang Laizi quickly called out to him, "Brother Dongzhi! You don't have to drink the water!"

He smiled embarrassedly and touched his head, "I don't really have anything to do, I just want to ask you, since the Zhong family is stupid... Oh, hello Zhong family! The girl is back, so does it have to start tomorrow? If so, I will go find that Zhou Yushou."

The silly girl who blurted out the words was forced back by Chen Dongzhi's sharp eyes. He smiled awkwardly and pretended not to see Chen Dongzhi's murderous eyes.

Chen Dongzhi glared at him and said, "Yes, you will go to the woods at the entrance of the village after noon tomorrow. Remember to tell him that you are waiting for him there."

Wang Laizi was anxious, "You haven't told me how you're going to deal with him! Are you really going to find a girl to wait for him there?"

Isn't this harming the girl?

Chen Dongzhi thought of what Zhong Ruyi said, and couldn't help but curl up his lips. "Tomorrow there will indeed be a girl going with you, but don't worry, she will protect herself, you just need to be careful, and do everything according to what Zhou Yushou said to you."

Wang Laizi was dumbfounded. This, this girl really came? Would he be held responsible for molesting this girl?

This is not good. He can't even support himself. If he gets a wife to support, then his current leisurely and comfortable life will be gone forever, right?

Wang Laizi left with a heavy heart, as he still had to go find Zhou Yushou.

Zhou family in Yangliu Village.

Ever since he was beaten and thrown out by the people from the gambling house that day, Zhou Yushou felt that he had been very unlucky recently.

Either you get bumped into by someone while walking, and then when you come to your senses you discover your money has been stolen, or you step into the squat toilet while using the toilet. These aren't big deals, but they are very disgusting situations.

Even when I was sleeping at home, I would be bitten by a centipede that appeared out of nowhere. There were centipedes in this kind of weather. Even drinking water would get stuck in my teeth.

At the dinner table, Zhou Yushou squinted his eyes and tilted his mouth, looking nonchalant, "Hey, Zhou Yuru, why haven't I seen the boy from the Zhong family come to see you recently? Could it be that they don't want you anymore?"

After these words were spoken, Zhou's father and mother, who were originally busy eating, stared at Zhou Yuru with their eyes, "Even if your brother didn't tell you, I would still like to ask you, why hasn't Zhong Laosan come to see you for so long? Could it be that he has fallen in love with another girl? You'd better go and find out. If that's the case, we have to go to his house to ask for compensation!"

Zhou Yuru hadn't seen Zhong Laosan recently. She didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but after hearing what they said, she started to panic.

But she held back, "Daji is not that kind of person. Since he said he would ask a matchmaker to come and propose marriage after the New Year, then he will definitely come!"

Mother Zhou snorted coldly, "It's better this way! If you are like your bitch sister, who only cares about yourself and ignores your parents and brothers at home, don't blame me for tearing you apart!"

It happened again. Ever since her eldest sister Zhou Yuyan married a wealthy businessman and disowned them, she would be pointed at and scolded like this every day. If she dared to talk back, she would not only have no food to eat but also be beaten.

She resented her married elder sister. If it weren't for her, why would she have to live such a fearful life? Even if she had been beaten in the past, it was not like this now.

Now they were venting all their resentment towards Zhou Yuyan on her, and they felt so innocent as her sister!

Zhou Yushou was pleased to see her angry but unable to speak out, and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't marry Zhong Laosan. I have already arranged a plan to find someone to molest Zhong Laosan's sister. Then I will come to the rescue and see if she doesn't fall in love with me!"

"You, instead of thinking about marrying Zhong Lao San, you might as well let mother find a good family for you to marry into. This way you will be considered valuable. Otherwise, it will be useless even if you marry Zhong Lao San. By then, the entire Zhong family will be mine, and you will still have nothing!"

Zhou Yuru secretly hated him in her heart. No! I can't let him succeed like this!

Before, she had been thinking about letting Zhong Ruyi marry in. By that time, she would have already married Zhong Laosan, and Zhong Ruyi would have to take the beatings and suffer in this family on her behalf.

But she was willing to marry Zhong Laosan not because she liked him so much, but because his family was much better than the widowers, cripples and fools that Zhou's mother had shown her.

Zhong Laosan is a very honest person. Whatever she says is what it is. Then, won’t the Zhong family’s braised food business be within her grasp?

But now, what did Zhou Yushou say? She wanted to marry Zhong Laosan just because she didn't want to marry those widows and fools. If Zhou Yushou really married Zhong Ruyi, would she still have a place in the Zhong family?

If Mr. and Mrs. Zhong really loved Zhong Ruyi as much as Zhong Lao San said, they would not let Zhou Yu Shou marry her. There is no guarantee that they would not listen to their daughter and obey Zhou Yu Shou as their son-in-law.

Why didn't she think of this before? She even wanted to match Zhou Yushou and Zhong Ruyi up. That time, Zhong Laosan was annoyed with her about this.

No! We have to tell Zhong Laosan about this. We can’t let Zhou Yushou succeed!

At this time, someone outside the door was calling Zhou Yushou's name. Zhou Yushou frowned and cursed, "Who is it? Why did you come at this time? Are you here to beg for food?"

These words were unpleasant to hear. Wang Laizi, who was outside the door, was fuming and glaring. When Zhou Yushou opened the door, he saw his face full of anger.

Seeing that the person outside the door was the one he had specially hired to frame Zhong Ruyi, he quickly put on a smiling face and said, "Isn't this Brother Wang? How did you find time to come to my place? Could it be that the thing I asked you to do has already been done?"

Without finishing his words, he gave Wang Laizi a look that said, "You understand."

Wang Laizi was originally rolling his eyes in anger because of what he said, but when he thought about the reason why he came here, he suppressed his anger and put on a smug expression.

"The silly girl from the Zhong family has returned. I plan to follow her tomorrow. I have already found out that she will stroll to the entrance of the village after eating at noon every day. I will stop her then! You can show up again when it is almost time!"

Zhou Yushou was extremely excited when he heard this, as if he saw countless amounts of silver waving towards him.

He had already inquired around in the town and found out that Zhongji could earn dozens of taels of silver a month. He thought it was too little at first, but then he heard that Manxianglou and a tavern in the town had cooperated with Zhongji and could get dividends every month!

What is Zhong Ji? Man Xiang Lou is a big business, making more money in a day than Zhong Ji makes in a month!

By then, when Zhongji is taken over by him and he cooperates with a few more restaurants and taverns, won’t he have endless money?

Wang Laizi looked at the man who was still standing in front of him, but whose mind had wandered off to some other place. He felt contempt for him as he saw his lewd smile on his face.

No matter how poor Wang Laizi was, he never thought of living off others! Lazy! But he also had the ambition to be lazy!

"Okay! Then I'll go there early and wait for you!"

After Zhou Yushou came to his senses, he said that he couldn't wait any longer.

Wang Laizi said quickly, "No, no! It's not too late to go after noon. If you go too early, won't you be seen? What if the matter is exposed?"

Oh my God! We must not let him go too early. Brother Dongzhi said it was after Chenshi, so it was after Chenshi. If this guy went too early and he saw something, it would be bad.
