Traveling through the ancient times

The Haokelai restaurant that we bought before had been renovated at the beginning of the year. The first floor is a traditional teahouse with a stage in the middle where you can read books or have performances, and there are tables around it.

The second floor is designed as a modern afternoon tea room, with each space separated by green plants and gauze curtains, so that guests at each table do not disturb each other.

The third floor is the mahjong room, each of which is a separate private room. In addition to tea, there are also various snacks, fruits and other food.

There are special stairs to each floor, and you can go up directly from the first floor. All the staff and supplies are ready. At the beginning of the year, we decided to open for business directly. Now mahjong is being made. The first and second floors will be open first, and the third floor will be open after the mahjong is ready.

A new business was added at the beginning of the year, and Qi Muhe is naturally the shopkeeper here. The hot pot restaurant is now on the right track, and a young apprentice who was trained before was promoted to manage the accounts.

"Old Qi, you're going to have to work hard again during this period." Chushunhua said to Qi Muhe who was clacking his abacus.

"Who made me your butler? I have to work hard!"

"The bigger the business, the more dividends I will get. My fortune depends on you. Keep up the good work and make your business bigger and stronger."

Since the hot pot restaurant opened, the salary that Chushuhua paid to Qi Muhe was no longer a certain amount of money per month, but a commission based on the total monthly turnover.

"Let's cheer together!" The two encouraged each other.

Now Chushuhua can be considered a wealthy woman. Among her several businesses, except for the very first backpack business which has entered a sluggish period, the others are still doing quite well. Eating, drinking and having fun are never out of style.

In a blink of an eye, it was the New Year again. This year, Chushuhua had agreed with her parents to stay in Qunan to celebrate the New Year. Her younger brother Nian Shiwei also came back from the academy on vacation. Chushuhua asked him to go to the teahouse to learn accounting from Qi Muhe.

Jiang Ruixue returned to Yangshan Town, and Lu Mingqian and Lu Mingcheng also returned to Kyoto.

On New Year's Eve, Shouchuhua's house prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. Qi Muhe was also invited to the Nian family. There were two full tables of people, and they had a lively New Year's Eve dinner.

After dinner, Nianchuhua gave everyone a bulging red envelope. Everyone was very happy and kept saying auspicious words to Nianchuhua.

Nian Dali and Luo were filled with relief and pride when they saw their daughter like this.

After a while of excitement, everyone felt tired and went back to their rooms to rest.

Nishunhua was happy tonight and learned to drink some wine. Her face was flushed. She sat next to Qi Muhe by the fire in the yard and chatted with him. The sparks were crackling.

Qi Muhe looked at the face of the New Year painting, which was made softer by the firelight, and asked, "In the new year, do you have any new wishes?"

"In the New Year, of course, my family and friends are in good health, my career is thriving, and I am making a lot of money."

"miser!"

"The wages of avarice is death."

"What are you talking about on New Year's Day?" Qi Muhe said as he tapped Nianchuhua on the forehead. "Children should not be restrained in their words. Children should not be restrained in their words. Amitabha!"

"Do you still believe this?"

"I don't believe it normally, but I have to believe it today."

"why?"

"Because today is New Year's Day!"

"Cut~"

"What about you? What are your New Year wishes?" Nian Suhua looked at Qi Muhe.

"My wish is that your business will become more and more prosperous, expand to all corners of the country, and make a lot of money." I hope you are happy every day, and I hope I can always be with you!

"Well, this is a good wish. Lao Qi, you have good vision."

"Of course not. Who am I? I am Lao Qi!"

Hahaha…

After chatting for a while, the smell of alcohol on Chushulhua's body dissipated, but her head felt even more dizzy. Hua Ling helped her back to the house to wash up and rest.

Qi Muhe sat alone for a while, and then went back to the room that Chuanxi Hua had prepared for him to rest.

During the Chinese New Year, several shop employees were given a holiday. After a busy year, everyone went back home to spend a good reunion with their families.

It was a rare opportunity to have such free time, so Chushunihua slept until she woke up naturally every day. Her parents stayed here for one night and then went back to the farm because they were worried about the poultry on the farm.

Chushulhua didn't stop her. After all, they were close by and she could go to see them anytime.

Nian Shiwei had a few good classmates in the academy, and he would go around the streets visiting friends every day, but he wouldn't see anyone the whole day!

On this day, just as Chushouhua crawled out of bed, Huaduo came in with a note, "Miss, the concierge said this is a note from the governor's daughter."

This flower used to have a round apple face, but after practicing basic skills with Nianchuhua for a period of time, her chin became pointed and her face turned into a melon-seed face, and she became a little beauty as she wished.

Nianchuhua took it with squinting eyes and yawned as she read the contents on it. It turned out that Zhou Jingjing's coming-of-age ceremony would be in a few days, and she was invited to attend the ceremony.

At the beginning of the year, Hua put the post aside and fell asleep again.

"Miss, hurry up and get up. It's almost noon."

"Um…"

"Miss, you haven't practiced for many days. Look at your face, it's become rounder..." Hua Duo said while pulling the quilt she had painted at the beginning of the year.

"Really?" Nian Chuhua suddenly let go of the quilt and sat up. Hua Duo fell backwards. Nian Chuhua quickly grabbed her, otherwise Hua Duo would have fallen on her head.

"Miss, why did you let go so suddenly? If Duoduo falls and becomes stupid, you will have to support her for the rest of her life."

"Don't worry, I can support you for the rest of your life even without Miss Stupid, but..."

"But what?"

"But I'm afraid someone won't let me support you forever!"

"Who is it? My brother-in-law? Why doesn't he let the young lady support me?" Hua Duo pouted.

"It's not your son-in-law, it's your husband..."

"Oh, miss, you are so bad. I will follow you for the rest of my life. I don't want a husband..." After all, Hua Duo was only thirteen years old, the age when love first blossomed. When she talked about getting married, her face turned red instantly.

"Really? If someone comes to me and asks to marry you, I will just say no." Nian Chuhua looked at the blushing flower mischievously.

"Miss..." Hua Duo stomped her feet, covered her face and ran out.

Hua Ling came in from outside and looked at the flower running past her with a puzzled look on her face, "Miss, what happened to her?"

"I'm so embarrassed!"

Shy? Hua Ling thought for a moment and realized that the young lady must be teasing her again.

Chu Nian Hua looked at Hua Ling, who was a few months older than Hua Hua and didn't like to talk all day. Chu Nian Hua asked tentatively, "Hua Ling, do you have someone you like?"

"No, Miss."

"Then if you meet someone you like one day, you must tell me so that I can prepare a dowry for you."

"Yes, ma'am."

Nian Chuhua looked at Hua Ling, whose face showed no emotion when she said this, and said, "I am serious. Please don't take it lightly."

"I know that the young lady has always been very nice to us. What she said must be true." Hua Ling looked at Nian Chuhua seriously and said.

But it's not that she didn't take Chuanchuhua's words to heart. She had never thought about getting married. She wanted to be by the young lady's side and protect her for the rest of her life, and it wasn't just talk.

Nian Chuhua smiled and nodded, and then suddenly thought of something else, "Hua Ling, look at my face, is it rounder?"

"No, the lady is beautiful no matter what!" In Hua Ling's eyes, the lady is the most beautiful.

"Really? Are you looking carefully?" Nian Chuhua put her face close to Hua Ling.

"It seems to be a little rounder than before!"

Nian Chuhua's expectant face fell instantly, "Wait for me, wait for me to change clothes, and then we can spar together..."
