Reborn Farmhouse Restaurant [Transmigration Book]

Tao Xiude immediately called the servant who stayed behind to inquire.

"I don't know! I really haven't been lazy. I have been guarding the door all the time. There are things in the house to go home to worship ancestors, as well as gifts for each family. I dare not be lazy! I really haven't left! I have never left. I know why this thing is in the house." The servant kneeling on the ground with his forehead pressed against the ground quickly explained.

Tao Xiude didn't pursue this, but said: "Who else came in."

"The waiter in the shop, he has come to exchange tea and clean up the house, but he comes at this time every day!"

Tao Xiude rubbed the center of his brows, "Call him up and ask, maybe he saw something."

"Yes."

Xiao Er bent over anxiously and entered the room, and bowed and nodded to Tao Xiude as soon as he entered, "Master, what do you want me to do?"

"Have you ever entered my room? Can you see this?" Tao Xiude poked the white paper and jade pendant that were still on the table, staring at Xiao Er.

Xiaoer's expression was blank at first, but then he seemed to think of something suddenly, and said hastily: "I've seen it before, I saw it when I came to exchange tea today, and it's on your table."

"Can you see anything strange? Or hear something, do you know who put it in?"

"I don't know about this!" Xiaoer waved his hands again and again, with a look of panic on his face, "Little one, the little one is just here to change the water, and I thought it was your thing, so I didn't dare to touch it."

Tao Xiude stood up, walked to the window sill and pushed it, the window sill was open, that is to say, if he was a martial arts master, he could indeed come in from here instead of going through the corridor. In that case, it is normal that his servants would not be able to find him of.

"My lord, this is the third floor. If you don't want to sneak into this room through the corridor and place the jade pendant, you must go down from the top of the building and come in through the window. This person's light work is not low. It's daytime again, and people come and go on the street." To my surprise, no one found him sneaking in from the top of the building, I'm afraid he is a top expert." The servant standing beside Tao Xiude cupped his hands.

"Tell me, is there such a master in this small county?" Tao Xiude frowned.

"Young master, the affairs of the Chen family are not limited to this county town. The Chen family is actually related to the overall situation of Han County. Not to mention the master, even this jade pendant, I'm afraid it's not something that ordinary people can get at will. Yes, it's just that I don't know which side's forces have inserted it in, and the water in this small county has become more and more muddy."

"That's right! But the faction that released the jade pendant is obviously also an enemy of the Chen family. Although the purpose is the same for the time being, this hidden existence must be tricky! We still have to find out so that we can feel at ease." Tao Xiude said, His expression was slightly solemn.

"Yes!"

Xiao Er bowed his head and bowed his head. After a long time, he finally waited until Tao Xiude waved his hand casually, and then he was grateful for Dade's departure.

……

What does it feel like to get rich overnight?Holding more than 100 taels of bank notes, Du Qingchen fell into deep thought, and still feels unreal. It's been a hard year, why don't you sell a prescription!However, selling Fangzi is not a long-term solution. Besides, there are not so many things in his mind that he can sell for money. It is more reliable to work hard to get rich.

Du Qingchen stuffed the banknotes into his clothes. One of the ten tael banknotes had already been exchanged for silver by him, and he was going to take it back to build a house. If you have money, you must live in a good house!When you get married, cover it immediately!A well should be drilled in the yard, so that Su Dong would not have to go out to fetch water from the well in the village in the future, which would be too far away.

Oh yes!We also need to build toilets and bathrooms. If you have money, the necessary facilities must be covered!The yard should be expanded as well. The pepper seeds have already been obtained, but there are not many things. He dare not plant them outside. It is safer to plant them in his own yard.

Anyway, rich!The daughter-in-law can also enjoy the blessings with him after marrying home!

Du Qingchen gave a rare smirk.

After giving the guys a paid vacation, Du Qingchen packed his things and went back to Du's Village.

Du Qingchen lived in the town for a long time, and almost never went home in the past month. When he went back suddenly, he almost couldn't recognize his home.

"Yo, Brother Qingchen is back and is going to marry a husband. Congratulations!" Du Qingchen's family came and went, and when a villager saw Du Qingchen coming back, he immediately went up to congratulate him, and Du Qingchen responded with cupped hands.

Du's father was busy directing, and he didn't see Du Qingchen come back. Two wooden houses have been built in the courtyard, just opposite the original firewood house and the firewood house, surrounding the main house and the side house, "Dad .” Du Qingchen smiled and walked over to say hello.

"Oh, you're back. I thought I'd have to find someone to call you there tomorrow! No matter how important the store is, it's not as important as getting married! Come on, go to your room and have a look, I'll give you all the groom's clothes It’s ready, but I can’t wait for you to come back! Go try it out and see if it fits, if it doesn’t fit, ask your aunt to change it for you.”

"Understood, haven't I come back?" Du Qingchen smiled, and was pushed into one of the new houses by Du's father. Inside, the wooden floor is a lot higher than the ground, which is moisture-proof and waterproof , whether it is used as a firewood room or a study in the future, it is very suitable.

The wooden house was warmed by the sun. When the windows were opened, the sunlight could come in and shine on the woody and fragrant floor. Du Qingchen stepped on it, secretly thinking that he could lay blankets in the future. It must be very comfortable to sit here when you have nothing to do in winter, and lie down and take a nap in the sun.

The furniture was already placed in the house, and Du Qingchen's broken cabinet was also brought in. Presumably, all his belongings were also inside. Du Qingchen opened it and looked, and sure enough, all his worn-out clothes were inside, but there were not many of them. Except for the clothes he took to the town to change, there were only two worn-out cotton jackets and a few bunts left in the closet for farm work.

Du Qingchen closed the cabinet, and turned his eyes to the bed. The wooden bed was new, and looked like it was made of leftover wood from building a house. There was also a new bedding on the bed. It was bright red, very festive.

Is he going to live in a new house tonight?The corner of Du Qingchen's mouth ticked, okay!It's okay to go to bed first, Du Qingchen walked over, and finally saw the official groom's clothes that Du's father said, the bright red gown, um... a little different from what he imagined, but it's okay.

Du Qingchen changed his clothes and went out to show Du's father. Du Qingchen in groom's attire attracted the attention of the busy villagers in the yard.

"Hey, look at our big brother, this is pretty, just like the people in the painting, when you get married, go out and let your in-laws see, what a handsome young man, don't let your in-laws smile? !" The aunt who was washing vegetables in the yard and preparing the food for the wedding banquet looked up and laughed and joked.

Du Qingchen lowered his head in embarrassment, walked up to Father Du, turned around, and asked expectantly, "Does it fit?"

Father Du smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and nodded, "It fits, it fits! The clothes your aunt made for you really fit!"

"Of course, this is made for my brother Qingchen, can I not be careful?" The woman who was washing the dishes with a wooden basin interjected.

Du Qingchen turned around and smiled, and only then did he know who made the new clothes, so he said, "Thank you, auntie."

"You're being polite, aren't you?" The woman was very happy when she heard this.

At night, after the busy villagers had left, Du Qingchen told Father Du and Du Rulin that he had made more than 100 taels of silver by selling the recipe.

Because the small restaurant was temporarily closed, Du Rulin also came back after school, but the journey was a bit far away. He used to run a lot, but it was nothing.

Du's father and Du Rulin looked at the banknotes that Du Qingchen took out in shock. No matter how old they were, this was the first time they had seen real banknotes. Use the silver ticket!

Du's father took the bank note that Du Qingchen handed over and fumbled for a long time, and was silent for a long time.

"Father? What's the matter?" Du Qingchen was afraid that Father Du's psychology would undergo some drastic changes. If he got over-excited again and got a sudden illness or something, it would be bad.

"It's nothing." Father Du handed the bank note to Du Qingchen, with tears in his eyes, "Take it!"

"Father, aren't you in charge of the family's money?" Du Qingchen smiled. He didn't think that he had to take care of the money. Anyway, when he wanted to spend money, Du's father never refused. Everyone has the same hand.

"No, I'll leave it to you from now on. You are better than me, better than me!" Father Du raised his hand and patted Du Qingchen's shoulder, pressing it down with some strength, "I gave birth to a good son!"

"Father." Du Qingchen was helpless, "I just made some money! Look at you, what are you feeling?"

"Xiaoqian?!" Du's father stared.

Only then did Du Qingchen regain some of the old feelings, and chuckled, "Look, this is not very good, what did you do just now, one or two, I thought you were unhappy, and it was a short time to work with you I can’t accept it! Then you have to accept it, I will make a lot of money in the future! Not only will I open a restaurant in the town, but I will also open it in the county town and the provincial capital. Drive to the capital! A lot of money will be made, and the 100 taels of silver will make you speechless, what about the future? Dad, I will give you a box of gold in the future, what will you do then?"

Du Qingchen joked with a smile to ease the atmosphere.

Du's father raised his hand and patted Du Qingchen's shoulder, "People who are about to get married, don't be more solemn! You laugh and laugh all day like a child, and you even drive to the provincial capital. It would be great if you can take good care of the shops in the town." Already!"

Du Qingchen nodded with a smile.

Du Rulin looked at Du Qingchen and said, "Brother, Mr. Tao, if you use your prescription, it will affect how you do business in the future, right?"

Du Qingchen looked back at Du Rulin in surprise. Du's father could only see the 100 taels of silver in front of him. For this reason, he even had a son who was much stronger than him. I was dazzled by the 100 taels of silver, but thought about the longer term.

The little boy has grown up!They all know how to look ahead.

Du Qingchen was very relieved, feeling like my family had a child who had just grown up, and raised his hand to touch Du Rulin's head, "My brother thinks about the long-term! I'm not afraid of this, not to mention that I have other prescriptions, but I don't have any." , I’m not afraid, who is in the restaurant business, all the dishes are different from other restaurants? Of course, it will still be affected, but it’s not a big problem! Don’t worry.”

Du Rulin nodded, "Actually, my brother definitely didn't think about selling the prescription at first. You want to keep it and make money for yourself in the future. I know you don't like this, brother Tao must have forced you."

Du Qingchen sighed: "Don't think like this! I really didn't want to sell it at the beginning, but after seeing the 100 taels of silver, I really wanted to sell it! Moreover, I am really short of money now. Yes, after a while, it may take a lot of money..."

"What?" Du Rulin asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing!" Du Qingchen patted Du Rulin's shoulder, "You just need to study hard, and don't worry about the rest."

Du Rulin lowered his head, noncommittal, when will his brother understand that he also wants to help him and share his burden.

Du Qingchen told Father Du that he wanted to buy some more things for the family. With 100 taels of silver, Father Du didn't care about money anymore, and he agreed as soon as Du Qingchen said it.

"Then dig a well first. It's simple. It takes a day or two. It's just a matter of two days. Just in time, when you get married in a few days, there will be so many meals to cook, and you won't have to find someone to carry water."

"Well, the blue bricks have to be reserved first, and we will build a house when we get married. I want to expand our yard. Dad, can we buy the open space around our house? I want to plant some peppers in our yard .”

"The spices that Mr. Tao brought over and later bought Fang Zi?"

"Yes, father, that thing is definitely a good thing, and it will spread to our town sooner or later, we can seize an opportunity."

Father Du pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay!"

After deciding what to do, Father Du went out to invite the well diggers from the neighboring village to come over. The villagers who came to help were still busy preparing for the wedding in a few days. Surprised look.

"This is amazing. There are three wells in our village. Who still digs wells in their own yard! A well costs a few taels of silver! The Du family is really prosperous, how long has it been! Before, they were poor, so they borrowed money everywhere. Money for medical treatment to go to school."

"Stop talking! On the day of great joy, why bring up those past events, you should think about building a good relationship with the third uncle's family, and see if Brother Qingchen can bring a man from your family to do business in the future."

Du Qingchen heard the villagers' discussions and pretended not to hear them. He directed the well diggers to pick a corner and start digging wells. The yard became busier and lively for a while.

Tao Xiude had already sent someone to investigate the Baigou, and sure enough, they found signs of the ground being turned over by Su Junxia who had scattered gravel and hay.

"Dig!" Tao Xiude's servant began to dig with the dagger he carried with him. Fortunately, the place had just been dug up, so it was very easy to dig. Soon, he pulled out the corpse. After removing the material from the other party's body, he confirmed the other party's identity, buried him back, and went back to report to Tao Xiude.

"So, Meng Wen's body is in Baigou. He has been missing for a year, and he unexpectedly died in this remote village." Tao Xiude pondered.

"Yes, my lord, there are traces of knife wounds on the ribs of the corpse. Meng Wen's martial arts skills are good, I'm afraid he was killed by a master. Moreover, Meng Wen appeared here on official business, I'm afraid it was also to investigate the Chen family. The servant suspected that Meng Wen It was the Chen family's fault."

"How do you know?" Tao Xiude flipped the identity jade pendant between his fingers, and asked indifferently.

"Since the corpse is buried, it will definitely not be transported to Lin County or further away to bury the corpse. The risk of being discovered is too great, so Meng Wen must have died in this county, and in this county, the county magistrate Faint and incompetent, timid and fearful, it is not worthy of Meng Wen's investigation, only the Chen family. Moreover, as far as the servants know, before Meng Wen disappeared, he was investigating a case of child abduction in other provinces. After thinking about it, my son, we found it. Regarding the matter of the Chen family hiding the child, is it right?"

The servant cupped his hands and said: "The slave suspects that Meng Wen's investigation traced the case to the Chen family, so he came here and continued to investigate, but was discovered by the Chen family. The Chen family simply killed Meng Wen and buried his body in the wilderness." , but this matter was discovered by a third-party force, who hid the evidence, and when the young master came, he handed over the evidence to the young master, and wanted to use the young master's hand to get rid of the Chen family!"

When Tao Xiude heard this, he returned to his initial doubts, "Tell me, who is this third-party force? If he is really that powerful, why didn't he do it himself? He has to wait for a year and return the evidence. Give it to me?!"

"This..." The servant couldn't figure it out either.

"In this side, there are masters who can sneak into my room during the day, and wise men who can penetrate into the details and discover the secrets that the Chen family has tried their best to hide, and they are here!" Tao Xiude frowned slightly, but his eyes were a little bright.

"My lord, it seems that there are other doubts?" The servant asked, clasping his hands.

"It's just a little bit of suspicion. He shouldn't be able to do such a thing. He's just an ordinary person with some intelligence. However, even a little bit of doubt is worth testing, isn't it?" Tao Xiude chuckled.

The servant cupped his hands and saluted, "My lord, please bring your servant. Although this county is small, there are many undercurrents. Please cherish yourself, and let this servant protect you personally."

"Of course I have to bring you, otherwise, how would I know who has martial arts! By the way, prepare some gifts, and we're going to have a wedding." Tao Xiude stuffed the jade pendant into his arms, got up and smiled.

"Yes."

In Du's Village, Du Qingchen was packing up the things he would bring to his wedding in the future. There was already a pig in the yard, and the cook was sharpening his knives, planning to split it up for the banquet.

"Boss Du, I'm here for a wedding banquet!" Tao Xiude walked in with a smile, "You're so easy to find! I asked a lot of people to find your house, ouch! It's so lively!"

Tao Xiude took the lead, and the sound came before he entered the door. Du Qingchen had already guessed that this would happen, so he was not surprised. He just got up and looked at the door in a daze. When he saw someone coming in, he exclaimed, " Mr. Tao, why are you here? Please come in!"

As soon as Tao Xiude came in, he was startled by the hot atmosphere, and then he was smoked by the smell of blood and oily smoke all over the yard, but thinking of his purpose, Tao Xiude still firmly stepped on Du On the ground of the courtyard, he smiled at Du Qingchen.

Behind Tao Xiude, a sturdy servant who looked like the son of the Lian family put on a humble attitude, and respectfully handed the gift box to Du Qingchen, "My son gave it to Mr., I hope Mr. and Mrs. will have a good marriage for a hundred years and have a precious son soon."

"You're too polite. It's my honor to come, my lord. I don't need these." Du Qingchen waved his hand embarrassingly.

Suddenly, a noble young master appeared in the yard, and all the villagers slowed down for a while, looking at them unconsciously, or hiding in embarrassment. The cook stopped cutting pork and even found a piece of cloth for him. Cover it, afraid to be surprised by this young man who looks like a wealthy family.

Du Qingchen invited Tao Xiude into the house. The main room was still the Du family's dilapidated house, and the two rooms they added were just bedrooms, so they couldn't invite guests there. The furniture in the main room were all the dilapidated tables and chairs from before. Before I had time to buy a new one, the new bed in Du Qingchen's bedroom was also made of leftover wood from the house!There is no time to fix other furniture.

Tao Xiude did not expect the Du family to be so impoverished. This scene can even be said to be poverty that Tao Xiude has never seen in his life. After all, he has never stepped into any farmer's house, but he has entered. Tao Xiude Xiu De was secretly surprised, but didn't say anything.

The servant hurriedly wiped the stool, but he felt that even if the stool was wiped, Tao Xiude would not sit on it. Sure enough, Tao Xiude would rather stand blankly than sit down. He just looked back at the courtyard. , as if not seen.

Du Qingchen smiled awkwardly, and quickly took some clean cloth from the compartment to make clothes on, and said: "My family is poor, so I made you laugh."

"No, no!" Tao Xiude just sat down, "It's my own fault. However, it was really unexpected. I thought Boss Du's brain, although not the richest, was already a rich man in the village. account."

"My lord, it's not that easy! My small business can be suppressed by the Chen family, and even my ancestral property has been robbed. The life of ordinary people is not that simple." Du Qingchen sighed and fell for Tao Xiude. For tea, Tao Xiude would definitely not be able to use the dilapidated rough porcelain bowl, not to mention that there was only plain water in the teapot, but it was one thing if Tao Xiude didn't drink it, but another thing if he poured it.

Tao Xiude pondered for a moment, "Is it so difficult?"

"Yeah! But it's not just our town. I believe that other places also have their own local bullies or strong clans. It's not easy for anyone. Didn't you just say that you think I should be a rich family in the village? In fact, Yes, my family is indeed a bit richer than others, after all, a peasant household that can support its children in private schools is already quite remarkable."

Tao Xiude turned to the servant behind him, his eyes were puzzled, and the servant nodded slightly, "Sir, you are right. The children in the village, who can go to school, are all from a good family. The Du family is indeed good, maybe it's just because there are children who want to go to school." Going to a private school costs too much money, so... it looks poorer."

Tao Xiude was shocked, the Du family looked like a wealthy family!Are all the people in the world so poor? !
