Chapter 188: Planting Peach Trees
"Okay, you're already an old couple, why are you still talking about divorce? Since you can't stand them, just drive them away. Come on, put on your shoes, the ground is cold."
Bai Qianshan's eyes flickered slightly.
His expression suddenly changed and he immediately tried to please Wan Zhen.
Seeing that she was not wearing shoes, he went back into the house to get a pair and helped her put them on himself.
"Drive her away? How can I drive her away when I have signed a paper contract with her?"
Wan Zhen said those words in anger.
Now that there were stairs, she went down.
She sat back on the stone bench and spoke bitterly.
"Can't drive them away? Then we'll let them stay until the lease expires. Last time I passed by, I saw that their business was booming. People lined up early in the morning. I'm afraid they make a few taels of silver a day. I have a plan. Do you want to hear it?"
Bai Qianshan sat opposite Wan Zhen.
He said sinisterly.
"What plan?" Wan Zhen looked at him curiously.
"First, you pretend to be reconciled with them, and visit the shop from time to time, secretly observing how the food they sell is made. It would be best if you could steal the secret recipe. When the lease expires, we will change the Jiang Family Snack Shop to the Bai Family Snack Shop. Instead of renting it to someone else and getting such a small rent every month, why not do it ourselves?
Besides, you know how good the location of our shop is. They can never rent a shop like this again. There is no other vacant shop in Haochi Lane except the one near the entrance. When the time comes, we will grab their business and their regular customers will be ours. As for those poor guys, they can go back to farming."
Bai Qianshan narrowed his eyes.
Staring at Wan Zhen.
This bitch has been riding on my neck for my whole life.
She threatened him with divorce at every turn.
When the shop makes money, he will kick this bitch out.
When the time comes, I will marry a virgin girl and have a few more sons.
At this time, Bai Jizu, who was sleeping in the brothel and refused to leave, did not know that he had already been abandoned by his biological father.
"Grandpa and grandma, I want to eat meat tonight."
When the two discussed.
Bai Qianshan's grandson ran over from the backyard.
He was only five years old.
He became so fat that he looked like a ball.
"Dad, Mom, do you know where Jizu went? He hasn't come back yet..."
Qian looked at her parents-in-law tremblingly.
Asked in a low voice.
"Who knows? He's probably staying in some brothel or gambling house. Don't worry about him. Just take good care of Wangye. Don't worry. We in the Bai family only recognize you as our daughter-in-law."
After Bai Qianshan finished speaking, he wanted to pick up his grandson, but he couldn't do it, so he had to give up.
"Okay, okay."
Qian bit her lower lip.
The mouth suddenly turned pale.
She nodded slightly and didn't dare to mention it again.
evening.
Jiang Dahe drove the ox cart back to the Jiang family.
Jiang Tongshui and Jiang Tonghuo led the cows to the foot of the mountain to graze.
Zhang Jinlan cooks with her daughter-in-law.
Jiang Siyin was squatting in the yard, fiddling with something.
"Daddy, what are you doing?"
Jiang Fubao leaned over to take a look.
It turned out to be a peach pit.
She counted them and found there were twenty, including the one she had thrown under the tree in the shop.
Daddy has collected them all.
"Fubao likes to eat peaches. Daddy will plant them for you. Smash the peach pits and you will find the seeds inside. Just wait for them to sprout and then bury them in the soil. When the time comes, Daddy will plant peach trees all over the front and back yards so that Fubao can eat as much as he wants."
Jiang Siyin smashed it with all his strength.
Jiang Fubao felt warm in his heart.
Although Daddy is crybaby and weak, he has always loved his daughter very much.
"Okay, thank you, Daddy. When the peach tree grows up, I will eat lots and lots of peaches and eat them as meals every day!"
Jiang Fubao happily turned around in front of his father.
Jiang Siyin became more motivated.
Zhang Yanzi, who was sitting nearby mending clothes, looked at the silly looks of the father and daughter, smiled and shook her head.
A quarter of an hour later, she had mended the torn clothes. The stitches were so precise that it was obvious that her needlework was very good.
Had dinner.
After a while of coolness, the Jiang family fell asleep.
Two days passed and it was Jiang Tongmu's time to rest again.
In the morning, Jiang Dahe went to Sanshan School to pick up his son.
I didn't expect to bring three people back.
Looking at the young men standing on the left and right of her two grandsons, Zhang Jinlan was stunned for a moment.
"This must be Tongmu's grandmother, right? I'm Kong Mingxue, Tongmu's good friend and classmate. I've heard that grandma's cooking is very delicious, but I didn't expect that the shop I often patronize is actually opened by you, grandma. Grandma, can I come in and play? Tongmu said that I need your permission, so I don't dare to come in."
Kong Mingxue looked at Zhang Jinlan with a pitiful expression.
Like a stray puppy.
Zhang Jinlan's heart softened all of a sudden.
"Friends of Tongmu? Come on, come in, don't just stand there like an idiot. Grandma agreed. Siyin, pour three cups of mung bean soup. It must be too hot. Have a cup of mung bean soup. Stay here for lunch. Grandma will make it for you."
Zhang Jinlan is extremely enthusiastic.
"Tongmu, you are so lucky. Your grandma is so kind and gentle, unlike me. I have never seen my grandma since the day I was born. Grandma Tongmu, can I always call you grandma from now on?"
Kong Mingxue's eyes were wet.
How could Zhang Jinlan bear to refuse?
She agreed immediately, "Okay, call me grandma!"
Jiang Tongmu was so angry that he laughed.
How come this guy is so good at pretending?
"Fuck you, this is my milk."
He pushed Kong Mingxue away.
Sit on the chair.
"Grandma, I'm Meng Bujiu, and I'm also a good friend of Tongmu. The three of us sleep in the same room in the academy, and we have a very good relationship on weekdays. Please don't mind if we disturb you today. We really want to meet what the person who can cook such delicious food looks like.
Now I see that grandma looks really young. If you don’t know her, you might think she is my sister. I think when she was young, grandma must have been very beautiful. It’s a pity that I was born too late and couldn’t see her stunning appearance back then.”
Meng Bujiu also began to flatter him.
Jiang Tongmu’s eyes widened.
No.
Are these two people really here to play?
Why did he feel that these two people were here to snatch his grandma from him?
A sense of crisis hung over Jiang Tongmu's heart.
Which woman doesn't like to be praised for her youth?
Zhang Jinlan is no exception.
She was grinning from ear to ear.
"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you say. Grandma is old. Come on, sit down together. Grandma will personally serve you mung bean soup. I'll add a lot of sugar and make it cold. It's very refreshing to drink. At noon, stay here and taste grandma's cooking. You are good friends of Tongmu. From now on, you can treat this place as your own home. Grandma welcomes you to come and play often."
Zhang Jinlan was soon lost in the flattery of the two men.
Jiang Fubao was also stunned.
Where did the second brother pick up these two people?
You are really good at flattering others.
Even the stingy grandma became generous.
The last bite of the peach in her hand fell to the ground.
Meng Bujiu and the other man looked at her upon hearing the voice.
