Chapter 388 I'm Fighting With You
Old Mrs. Cui was worried about her son. After hearing what Cui said, she could no longer remain calm. She immediately turned into an old lady checking household registration in ancient times, and questions popped up one after another.
Sometimes they ask where they are from, sometimes they ask about their personality, how many people are there in their family...
Yuxiu watched from the side, feeling fortunate that it was almost dark, otherwise, judging from the old lady's attitude, she would probably rush over to Lin and interrogate her in person.
"Oh my, mother, we haven't even started yet, please stop asking so many questions..."
Uncle Cui felt a little embarrassed, so he helped Mrs. Cui, who looked anxious, and asked her to sit down first.
"Don't listen to my sister's nonsense. That's not true..."
What if the other person doesn't have such intention and this word gets out, he will be forced to death.
"I don't listen to your sister, so when can I have a daughter-in-law if I listen to you?"
The old lady rolled her eyes at Uncle Cui in annoyance, turned around and took Cui's hand, and the two of them went into the house to talk in whispers. Before leaving, she did not forget to call Yuxiu to join them.
In the old lady's heart, her granddaughter Yuxiu is more righteous than her parents, and she no longer regards her as a child.
For such a big thing, of course she had to be asked for advice.
"They are all women, so it's easier for them to talk about anything."
Xu Qinghe comforted Uncle Cui and said that there were no outsiders here anyway, so it was impossible for the news to spread outside.
"But it's better for you to pretend you don't know about this, big brother. If this doesn't work out, you... can work together without losing face."
That day, Uncle Cui went to ask Lin to help make buns and discussed the way of cooperation with her.
What he meant was that all the ingredients were provided by Cui's grain shop, Lin provided the recipe, and then she brought Tiedan's mother and two other women to help make it.
As for the profits from selling buns and steamed buns, they split it 60% to 40%.
Of course, Uncle Cui took 6%, after all, he had to provide a lot of food.
When Lin heard that he would be given 40% of the profits for free, he was shocked and immediately waved his hands, not daring to agree to it.
She was just doing some simple work, so at most you could just pay her some wages, how could she dare to ask for so much profit?
And with a profit of as much as 40%, judging from the current reputation of Cui's Grain Shop, the business must be good.
By then, let alone giving her 40% of the profits, even if she were given 10% or 50%, it would be enough for the mother and daughter to live a comfortable life for the rest of their lives.
Lin was not a greedy person. She told Uncle Cui to just pay her some wages as before and there was no need to share any profits.
After being persuaded by Uncle Cui, Lin gritted her teeth and agreed for the sake of her son Li Xiao's better future.
However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the two of them told the public that Uncle Cui hired Lin to do the work, and the wages were about the same as those paid to Tiedan's mother and the other women.
In a blink of an eye, the two of them had already cooperated better. The shop next door had been taken over a long time ago. After a little cleaning, it was named Cui's Restaurant, which only sold breakfast and the business was very good.
If these two of them were to work out, it would be quite a good match.
Cui took the responsibility of this matter and said that she would find some time tomorrow to test Lin's attitude.
It’s just that things are unpredictable, and plans often cannot keep up with changes.
"You are a woman who doesn't know how to behave yourself. You spend the whole day hanging out with men. Do you know what shame is?"
Early in the morning, a loud quarrel broke out in Cui's restaurant, attracting neighbors to come over and watch.
"Come and have a look. This shameless woman is the daughter-in-law of our family. When her husband died a long time ago, she couldn't wait to take away her husband's family's property. Now we have finally caught her..."
A woman grabbed Lin's clothes, spitting saliva from her mouth and kept yelling.
"No wonder I haven't seen her in all these years. It turns out she has found a strange man a long time ago..."
She was the wife of the shopkeeper Li whom she had met before. When she saw Lin coming out to greet the guests, she immediately seized the opportunity, pounced on her and grabbed her tightly, not letting her leave.
"I am a woman and cannot go out, so how dare you run out? Are you a man in disguise?"
Lin is now in good health and has a much stronger personality. Moreover, as her wallet becomes fatter day by day, she has become more confident.
Although she couldn't break free for a while because her clothes were grabbed by her, she did not show weakness. Not only did she curse back fiercely, she also slapped the woman on the face with her backhand.
"You keep talking about wild men every day. Could it be that you go looking for wild men every day, and that's why you speculate about others like this?"
"You shameless whore, you actually dared to hit me, I will fight you..."
Mrs. Li never expected that Lin would dare to hit someone. After a moment of hesitation, she became furious and stretched out her other free paw, striking towards Lin's face with its fangs bared.
She had been resentful of the Lin family for a long time. Last time, she and her husband lost face and had to pay money on the street. After returning home, she specially hired someone to investigate the Lin family, but found no significant relationship.
The two men realized that they had been tricked. Although they were angry, they did not dare to fight back on the spot.
It's no coincidence that the two enemies met here again.
Coincidentally, Mrs. Li had heard that a delicious restaurant had opened here, so she came here excitedly early in the morning. Unexpectedly, as soon as she sat down, she saw Lin chatting and laughing with a man.
"Are you sick, woman? You come here early in the morning to mess things up, right?"
With a full-throated roar, Uncle Cui strode over.
Mrs. Li felt that her arm was about to be broken by someone. Just as she was about to cry out in pain, she was dragged to the side.
"Are you okay? Sit down and rest for a while."
Uncle Cui helped Lin, whose hair was disheveled, to sit aside, and called Li Xiao to come in to accompany her. Then he came to Li's wife with a dark face.
"We at Cui's Restaurant don't entertain guests like you. Apologize to her and get out!"
Without asking the reason and without bothering to listen to the woman's explanation, Uncle Cui had a cold face and directly ordered them to leave.
"Bah! You two, a pair of adulterers and cheaters, why don't you entertain me? I don't even want this filthy place of yours..."
She stared at Lin with jealous eyes. Ever since the incident on the street, her husband, Boss Li, often mentioned Lin after returning home.
Sometimes she said that the other person hadn't changed at all after so many years, and sometimes she said that Lin's cooking skills were good. Her husband often praised other women, and the wife of the Li family had long been filled with anger.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will rip your mouth off!"
Hearing that she was still swearing, Li Xiao jumped out first this time without waiting for Uncle Cui to get angry, and rushed over to beat and kick Li's wife.
