Chapter 168: Dinner at Grandma's House
"No, it's still early. Can you have some cakes first, Nana?" Zhao Guocheng asked Zhao Shiying for her opinion with a smile.
Zhao Shiying nodded.
She ate the pastries given by Zhao Guocheng in small bites. These pastries were from the store.
Although the goods are purchased and sold, their family can also eat them. After all, if the children want to eat them, Zhao Guocheng will buy them even if he has to go to the market.
After eating two pieces, Zhao Shiying stopped eating.
At this time, the gate of the private school opened and the children came out one after another.
Soon Zhao Shiying saw her brothers, as well as Jinbao and Tietou.
"Dad, little sister." Zhao Shisheng and Zhao Shihui shouted at the same time.
Jinbao and Tietou came closer and greeted him one after another.
"Jinbao, Tietou, come with us for lunch today. Don't go to the private school to eat. It's good to have company." Zhao Guocheng said with a smile.
"Uncle Zhao, we've been waiting for you to say this," Jin Bao said with a smile.
"Hahaha...you are quite smart." Zhao Guocheng praised with a smile.
Tietou also grinned.
"Dad, I'll bring them both to see the shop. If I don't tell them, they won't know this is our shop." Zhao Shihui said with a smile.
Jinbao and Tietou touched their heads and rubbed their hands embarrassedly.
"Okay, here are some pastries, let's eat together." Zhao Guocheng invited.
Zhao Shihui immediately picked up the pastry and ate it, since he was hungry anyway.
"Should we go home for dinner?" Zhao Shisheng asked.
"Well, it's about time to go back for dinner." Zhao Guocheng nodded.
"Uncle Zhao, you guys go back and have dinner first. I'll just watch over the store here. I've counted and sorted the silver and money in the drawer. You can just take it back and put it away." After Wang Mian said this, he put the copper coins in a clean cloth bag.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. You just watch here first. We will go back to eat and bring it to you later." Zhao Guocheng thought that if they waited until they finished eating with Wang Mian before going back to eat, the food might be cold, so he just brought a bowl over.
As for the money, they were worried that Wang Mian would not be safe here alone, so it was convenient for them to take it back right away.
"Okay, thank you." Wang Mian nodded with a smile.
As long as he has food to eat and isn’t hungry, he’s not picky.
Zhao Guocheng took the children back to Wang Haiming's home.
When I got home, I found that the meal was already prepared.
Min Wenying had already brought out the food.
"I'll take the food to Wang Mian first. You guys eat first." Min Wenying said and wanted to leave.
"Grandma, don't go. I'll go and deliver the food. I can walk fast." Zhao Shisheng was a man with good sense and filial piety.
"Oh, okay, my good grandson is so sensible." Min Wenying didn't expect that Zhao Shisheng would actually help deliver meals.
As soon as Zhao Shisheng left, Master Wang happened to come back.
"What's going on? Why are you all here? Nothing happened in the grocery store today, right?" Wang Haiming had just come out of the private school and saw that Wang Mian was the only one in the grocery store, so he didn't go in.
But everyone is not here at the moment, so I thought they should go home and eat first.
But I didn't expect that they looked like they had just returned.
He was also shocked and angry when he heard about the grocery store being robbed yesterday, but since Sanluozi had been punished, he naturally couldn't say anything.
"Father-in-law, nothing happened. Everything is fine. I sold three pottery jars and one jar of preserved eggs today." Zhao Guocheng explained with a smile.
"Grandfather, business is very good today, we will definitely make a lot of money." Zhao Shiying grinned and pointed to the cloth bag in Zhao Guocheng's hand.
"Oh, this is all the money I brought back. How much is it?" Wang Haiming said with a smile.
"It's more than one or two copper coins. In addition to the preserved eggs, we also sold some other goods in the grocery store." Zhao Guocheng said with a smile.
“Well, it seems pretty good, but it’s only like this in the first few days when it first opened. It may fade away later.” Wang Haiming said.
"We know this about grandpa, but it doesn't matter. The grocery store will be on the right track from now on." Zhao Shiying nodded.
"Our daughter is really capable. She understands all these business tips." Wang Haiming pinched Zhao Shiying's little face.
With a doting smile on his face, he picked her up and lifted her up a little higher, making Zhao Shiying giggle.
"You two are having a great time. Come and have a meal. We are hungry." Min Wenying smiled and looked at the two people who were having a great time.
What a rare harmony.
Zhao Guocheng was a little jealous. His little girl was really close to her father-in-law.
The group walked into the dining area laughing.
Jinbao and Tietou felt a little reserved, and more embarrassed.
After greeting Master Wang and Min Wenying, Min Wenying asked the two children to sit down and eat together, and treated them as if they were at home, which finally made Jinbao and Tietou feel less nervous.
Soon Zhao Shisheng came back and everyone sat down to eat.
"This is the preserved egg sold in the store today. Come and try it. You must have never eaten it before." Zhao Shihui looked at Jinbao and Tietou and introduced it happily.
Jinbao and Tietou's eyes lit up.
Is there something delicious? However, the two of them still followed the rules and waited until everyone else started eating before they started eating.
When they ate the preserved eggs, their eyes widened. They were so delicious.
They taste better than meat.
"Eat it quickly. The runny egg in this preserved egg has a unique and delicate flavor. It's really delicious when paired with the spicy dipping sauce." Min Wenying said with a smile and picked up a less spicy one for Zhao Shiying.
Zhao Shiying smiled at her grandmother and then started eating seriously. She also liked the preserved eggs very much.
Two pieces can eat a lot of food.
The meal was very sumptuous, with not only preserved eggs, but also braised pork, bone soup, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, braised lean pork slices with black fungus, stir-fried pork belly with bamboo shoots, and stir-fried vegetables.
Jinbao and Tietou were very satisfied with the table full of dishes.
They hadn't eaten like this for a long time and were reluctant to put down their chopsticks, but their stomachs really couldn't hold any more.
By the time the meal was over, the children were all full.
Zhao Shiying was also very full and was now rubbing her stomach to digest the food.
Wang Haiming smiled when he saw the children like this.
It’s been a long time since I saw so many children eating together at home. It’s quite happy.
"Father-in-law, we will not come tomorrow. We have to work in the workshop at home and I am afraid we can't spare the time to come. Everything here depends on you, father-in-law and mother-in-law." Zhao Guocheng apologized.
"It's okay. Her grandmother can go to the shop and watch over it when she's free. It's not a big deal. Wang Mian is a very capable child. If there's something he doesn't know, I'll tell him in person. You can come and take a look when you're free." Wang Haiming said with a smile.
