"Hmm." Zhou Ying nodded as well, "Lanlan, from now on, you must stay away from those bad people, otherwise, you’ll get hurt every time, and it will make us all very sad..."
"Hmm." Sini nodded eagerly, "I even ate one less bowl of rice."
"Understood." Erya nodded vigorously, then scooped a spoonful of egg into Sini’s bowl, "Sister Mimi, eat more..."
"Haha..." Sini laughed happily.
Yang Ruxin was also reassured and then focused on doing business.
The reputation of her pancake and pork bun stall had been growing more resoundingly by the day. People were queuing up even before she arrived, forcing her to start her day earlier and earlier. Eventually, she couldn’t start any earlier; any sooner would mean the middle of the night. Finally, she had to establish a set time for opening and ask her customers not to come too early.
It was because of this that the idea of opening her own snack shop sprung to mind. After all, she had a storefront. Without making the affair too complicated, she would only sell pork buns and pancakes. Although her two-story space seemed a bit large at the moment, once she found chili peppers, she could start a Sichuan cuisine restaurant or even a hotpot place. Attracting a crowd first wouldn’t hurt.
She was the type to act as soon as she thought of an idea and immediately went to find Qian Er.
Since Weng Xin and Chengzi had already successfully earned Tian Geng’s trust, he and Liang Zi found themselves with little to do.
Yang Ruxin tasked him with the renovation of the shop, instructing him to find people and follow her design requirements.
"Don’t worry, Ruxin, I’ll make sure the renovation is beautifully done." Qian Er was overjoyed. He had been idle for several days, bored, and now Ruxin had given him a job. "If it’s not done well..."
"If it’s not done well, I won’t be polite." Yang Ruxin interrupted him. "Alright, I don’t need lip service; I need action, so hurry up and get to it."
Qian Er then hastily ran off with Liang Zi.
"Big sister, what about those people at the docks?" Erni was somewhat worried. "They’re looking forward to us coming every day. If we don’t go there, what will they eat?"
Yang Ruxin laughed, "You really do worry a lot."
Erni looked somewhat embarrassed.
"Don’t worry, once the shop opens, there won’t be as many people at the docks. We can take orders in advance to see how many people want food and have it delivered to them. There’s no need to worry about this..."
Erni’s eyes lit up; it always seemed as if whatever issue arose, everyone could easily resolve it, and she couldn’t help but feel out of her depth.
"You can make them now too. Once the shop opens, you’ll be responsible for the cooking, and Mengmeng will handle the outside..." Yang Ruxin smiled, "With your personality, you need to get out more and not spend all your time embroidering. You need to interact with people more. That way, you won’t panic when things happen, and you’ll be able to discern good from bad. Otherwise, I don’t know what trouble you might get into one day... I certainly wouldn’t like to see you become someone like Yang Rujue..."
"Big sister..." Erni looked at Yang Ruxin somewhat bashfully, then sneakily took a glance at Gu Yao, "I... I won’t be heartless and ungrateful..."
"Your sister is right." Gu Yao actually nodded seriously along, "Xuexue, if you stay cooped up at home all the time, you’ll dwell on things too much when you encounter problems. That’s not good. Look at you now, you’re much more cheerful..."
Erni’s face turned red instantly.
