Chapter 75 - Opening of the Store

Since there was no room in the shop and no bed in the empty room in the backyard, they still had to drive the oxcart back to town and come early tomorrow.

Due to the lack of time, Mo Xiao Yan had not met Chen Zi Mo in the past few days, so it was impossible to tell him the date of his opening.

The next morning, before the sky brightened, Lee's woke up and called everyone out. Since the shop was open for business today, they had to go and make preparations as soon as possible.

Mo Xiao Yan changed into a new set of clothes, tidied up his family and rushed the oxcart to the town.

There were quite a lot of customers who had just opened up a store. The store was so full that it was hard to sit down. Some of them even took them back to the store to eat.

Mo Lin Yu and Mo Da Lin were in charge of running the hall, while Lee's and Mo Xiao Yan were in charge of roasting meat in the kitchen. Mo Xiao Xia had collected the money all by himself, and was so busy that most of the people did not even have time to eat.

At this time, the guests had almost all left, and Chen Zi Mo, Su Jin Xuan and Leng Qian Ye walked in together.

When Su Jin Xuan first came in, Mo Xiao Yan was very surprised to see him here. He did not expect that he would actually come here as well.

”Xiao Yan, I heard that you opened your shop today, so I brought a friend here to support you.” Chen Zi Mo laughed heartily.

”Then thank you. I'll get you some barbecue. ” Mo Xiao Yan was exhausted after busying himself for the entire day.

After being roasted, he brought it over to the table. Chen Zi Mo was the first to take a bite out of it, while Leng Qian Ye ate as well. Mo Xiao Yan thought that Su Jin Xuan probably would not be able to eat it.

But just as he thought that, Su Jin Xuan actually took out a stick and started eating as well. Even Leng Qian Ye was stunned.

”Nope.” Su Jin Xuan would never give a good evaluation of anything, the best case scenario would be what he said would be nothing out of the ordinary.

Chen Zi Mo and Leng Qian Ye naturally understood him, and knew that his words usually had a good meaning.

As for Su Jin Xuan, he continued to eat the barbecue skewer, completely ignoring what Mo Xiao Yan had just said.

Seeing that he did not reply, Mo Xiao Yan felt a little awkward.

Cough cough … He covered up the embarrassment in his heart.

”Oh right, are you guys hungry enough for this? If it's not enough, I'll roast some more for you, right? ” Mo Xiao Yan saw that he had finished eating all twenty skewers on the table.

”Enough, it's getting late, Xiao Yan, are you guys closing soon?” Leng Qian Ye asked with a smile.

”That's right. We were so busy today that we didn't even have a bite to eat. After we go back, we still have to cook. I'm hungry.” Mo Xiao Yan rubbed his stomach, which was now nestled close to his back due to hunger.

”Haven't you eaten yet? Then let's go to a restaurant for a meal. It's already so late. ” Chen Zi Mo said with concern.

”There's no need to go through all that trouble. It's the same if we go back and eat.” Even though he had a steady income every day, he couldn't afford to waste it. It would take at least two taels of silver to go to a restaurant.

”Let's go.” Su Jin Xuan stood up and said.

”Then Xiao Yan, we'll be leaving first. I'll come see you when I have time.” Chen Zi Mo said his goodbyes.

”Yes.” Mo Xiao Yan nodded.

”Xiao Yan, let's pack up and go back. It's getting late.” Lee's came out from the backyard and said.

”Alright, mom, let's clean up quickly.”
