Chapter 86 When You Are Hungry, You Can Swallow The Green Belt
Chapter 86 When you get hungry, you can swallow the green belt
"Lao Jiang, will you be back on the 2nd?"
The soup dumpling shop has been closed since National Day.
However, early that morning, Hu Zhihai could still eat soup dumplings and saliva chicken in the store. Of course, the hot and sour soup and cold radish slices were no longer available. Jiang Yu found it troublesome and was too lazy to make them.
He originally didn't even bother to make soup dumplings and chicken with saliva, and planned to go directly to the train station and take the bus back to his hometown, but he couldn't stand Hu Zhihai's pestering, so he had to come to the store early in the morning and make enough for two days, which was considered a holiday for Hu Zhihai.
I also have to work overtime to supervise the canteen decoration as "compensation".
"Well, two days is enough, maybe it won't be needed."
Jiang Yu also sat down and started eating breakfast. While eating, he said,
"We have to make all the preparations for the Seventh Canteen before the holiday ends, so that it can be officially opened on the 8th."
"The construction team is progressing very quickly. It will probably be completed in the next two days. The large equipment for the canteen that was purchased in advance, such as the tables and chairs in the dining area, the refrigerators in the kitchen, the steam oven, etc., will be completed after the kitchen is completed.
You can move in directly.”
Although Hu Zhihai is usually casual and seems a bit unreliable, he has always been unambiguous when it comes to serious matters.
"There are also various changes to licenses and licenses, re-registration and so on. I should be able to get it done today. Everything else seems to be nothing, right?"
"Why not? How can such a big canteen be enough with the few people we have in the store?"
However, now that he is better, he can already make money, and the days will only get better and better in the future, and grandma will no longer have to work so hard.
After busy all morning, Jiang Yu started to prepare lunch again.
Grandma patted Jiang Yu gently with her thin hands, shook her head and said,
"Grandma has told you a long time ago that these debts have nothing to do with you. I am still strong and can definitely pay them off. You only need to live your own life, and grandma will be very happy."
Grandma held Jiang Yu's hand tightly, with tears in her eyes and a face full of relief, as if all the suffering she had suffered over the years was worth it.
"Grandma has kept this money, and will take it to each house tomorrow to pay back some.
Jiang Yu only stayed in his hometown of Yuqing County, under the jurisdiction of Raozhou City, for less than two days before returning.
Jiang Yu chewed the food in his mouth a few times and swallowed it. He glanced at Hu Zhihai and ordered,
"We already have three people in our store, Yan Tongtong and the others, and we need to recruit at least five more people. After all, they are still students and they usually have classes, so they can't come every day.
Jiang Yu tried to persuade him a few more times, but this time, grandma was firm and refused to agree to go with Jiang Yu.
I haven’t seen her for more than half a year, and grandma seems to have aged a lot. She is only in her early sixties, and her hair has turned completely white, and her whole body is dark and thin.
If you can't eat, it's because you're not hungry yet. When you're so hungry that you can't stand it anymore, you'll be able to swallow it even if it's green!
That night, Jiang Yu cooked again and made a table of dishes for grandma. Grandma blamed him for "cooking too much and wasting it", but she smiled broadly. During the meal, she drank for the first time.
Had two ounces of wine.
"..."
"Okay, then you must come back on the 2nd."
As soon as lunch was ready, grandma came back. Seeing that there was an extra refrigerator in the house, she opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing.
When he saw his grandma, with her hunched back, struggling to sort out the plastic bottles piled up like a hill in the dilapidated courtyard, he couldn't help but feel a sore nose and almost shed tears.
"Xiaoyu, didn't you say you opened your own shop? Renting a shop, hiring people, water, electricity and gas don't cost anything. There are many things you need money for, so you shouldn't get this money back."
However, Grandma Jiangzhou won’t go. I’m not familiar with the people there, and I don’t understand the language. I’m not used to living there, and you’ve opened a shop, so I can’t help you, and I can’t burden you.
The next day, Jiang Yu got up early in the morning, cooked porridge for his grandma, and made some fresh meat dumplings.
…
If he doesn't buy these things, grandma will definitely be reluctant to buy them.
Jiang Yu vaguely remembered that he had seen his grandma drinking when he was a child, but since his parents passed away, his grandma had never touched alcohol again.
Hu Zhihai nodded and warned, "Otherwise, I will starve when I finish eating these soup dumplings and saliva chicken."
When I make enough money at the end of the year to pay off all my foreign debts, my grandma will have no reason to stay.
"Okay, okay! Xiaoyu has grown up and knows how to feel sorry for grandma."
If you are free these days, remember to contact the people in the work-study department of the Student Union and ask them to contact some poor students in advance. When I come back, I will select a few people to come to the store to help."
Another thing, after all, our family still owes people money, so they will feel more at ease if I stay here."
After breakfast, while his grandma was busy with work, Jiang Yu went to the county town and bought a small refrigerator for his home. He then went to the vegetable market and bought some chickens, ducks, and pork and put them in the refrigerator.
Jiang Yu was speechless. If you don't eat these, can't you eat something else?
For him and for this family, grandma really suffered too much.
There was really no other way, Jiang Yu could only do this, thinking:
He couldn't wait to rush back to his hometown.
Now that he has made money, he can completely afford those debts, and he really can't bear to let his grandma, an old man, stay here all alone.
However, what Jiang Yu never expected was that when he took out the 200,000 yuan he brought back and planned to give it to his grandma to pay off the debt, grandma refused.
After breakfast was ready, grandma had already taken out the money Jiang Yu had brought back and returned it.
After dinner, the grandfather and grandson sat in the lobby and chatted for a long time, talking about Jiang Yu's father and Jiang Yu's affairs, but grandma never mentioned what happened when she was alone at home...
Grandma is willing to drink tonight. Maybe she is really happy.
The old man and the young man had a rare "quarrel", and in the end it was grandma who compromised.
After finishing breakfast, it was not yet seven o'clock. After Jiang Yu cleaned up the dishes, he turned off the lights, locked the door, and left the second cafeteria.
Although Jiang Yu has always listened to his grandmother's words and is a good and filial boy, in this matter, he seemed very stubborn and insisted on leaving the money to his grandmother to pay off the debt, and he also planned to take her back to Jiangzhou with her.
Originally, Jiang Yu planned to go with him, but his grandma refused. She still didn't want Jiang Yu to get involved in this matter. She was probably still worried that the creditors would go around her and ask Jiang Yu for debts, thus affecting Jiang Yu's original situation.
A peaceful life, right?
After lunch, Jiang Yu packed up his things and prepared to return to Jiangzhou.
Grandma didn't try to keep her either. After all, the house was in dilapidated condition and there really wasn't anything worth keeping.
After taking a taxi on the side of the road, Jiang Yu, who was sitting in the car, looked through the rearview mirror and saw the car starting slowly. Grandma couldn't help but run forward a few steps, then slowly stopped and stood still.
On the roadside, watching the car slowly go away, the white hair on his head was swaying in the wind, seeming to show deep concern.
His nose suddenly sore, Jiang Yu quickly turned away and stopped looking at the thin figure gradually receding in the rearview mirror, but at some point, his vision had already become blurry...
