The next day, Chen Xu told Secretary Guo in advance that he had gotten off work at normal times.

When he got home, Chen Ziqi was holding a tablet computer and watching TV, complaining, "Your Internet speed is too slow, watch videos old cards."

Chen Xu put down his briefcase and saw that the room was clean and quite satisfied. He asked casually, "What do you want to eat for dinner?"

"I want to eat the pork buckle."

Chen Xu walked to the kitchen, put on an apron, and said, "Then let's put down the noodles."

"Then you ask me about it." Chen Ziqi rolled her eyes.

After a while, Chen Xu came out with two bowls of noodles.

When Chen Ziqi saw this bowl of noodles with clear soup, she stared at him with wide eyes, "Chen Xu, you are too picky. Isn't this just boiled noodles with white water? Just treat me with this?"

"Do you eat?"

"snort."

Chen Ziqi wrinkled his nose at him, picked up the chopsticks, and muttered, "It's the fact, so I won't tell you. I must go out to buy some snacks tomorrow."

No matter how much she said, she still used chopsticks to pick up the noodles and took a bite.

Um?

I picked it up and ate it again.

Um.

After a few seconds, I quickly ate a bowl of noodles.

She drank the last sip of soup, saw Chen Xu staring at her and said, "What are you looking at? I'm just hungry. Who told you to come back so late."

Chen Xu pointed to the two empty bowls and pointed to the kitchen again.

"Can't I let me rest for a while?" Chen Ziqi's shoulders collapsed and her mouth pouted.

"Hurry up."

"You will lose this baby like this."

Chen Xu couldn't bear it anymore and knocked her forehead, "You're just talking too much, go quickly."

"Don't hit me in the head." Chen Ziqi was furious.

At this time, the cell phone on the table rang, Chen Xu went over and picked it up, turned around and said to her, "I have something to do and I will come back later, don't go out."

As he said that, he left in a hurry.

He went downstairs and walked to the side of the road. A black Audi stopped in front of him and lowered the window. It was Uncle San.

"Uncle San, Ziqi is upstairs, I'll take you up there."

Uncle San looked a little tired and said, "Thanks to you this time."

Chen Xu did not make any polite concessions. After he parked the car, he took him upstairs, opened the door, and said to Chen Ziqi, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, "Your dad is here, you guys have a good chat."

After saying that, he closed the door and left.

This is a housework between their father and daughter, and he doesn't want to get involved. He just took this time to find the owner of the late-night snack stall and signed the contract.

The boss and his wife were already waiting there and took out the draft contract for him to check it out.

The contract is very simple, with only a few terms, and the amount involved is not much, so it cannot be called formal, and it is still handwritten.

Chen Xu looked at it and felt that there was no problem, so he handed over the 20,000 yuan to them and signed the contract.

The boss took the money and wrote him a receipt and key. He said that they had bought the ticket for tomorrow morning and had to go back to pack up their things, so he left.

Chen Xu watched them leave and turned to look at the small shop, feeling a little confident. In the next three months, this shop will belong to him.

Of course, he didn't expect to earn much money in these three months. The main purpose was to accumulate some experience.

Three months later, the Spring Festival is over. At that time, he will be able to go to the darts competition, which is his chance to reap the first pot of gold.

He has planned all these.

This store is very small, only about 30 square meters, and is built between two houses. Strictly speaking, it should be considered an illegal building, but it seems to be a long time ago and it is difficult to tell.

Chen Xu rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning. He moved all the barbecue tools aside, so he couldn't use them.

Halfway through the cleaning, Uncle San called and said he had left in advance, so Ziqi stayed here and asked him to help take care of him for a few days.

He didn't say it clearly, and Chen Xu knew that the talk must have collapsed. So he closed the store door and returned to the rental house.

Chen Ziqi was watching TV with her flat screen like nothing happened.

He walked over and asked, "How was the conversation?"

"Not really." She said without raising her head, "Anyway, if he doesn't break up with that woman, I won't go back."

Chen Xu didn't want to inquire about the matter between them. Seeing that she was in a stable mood and had nothing to do, she went to take a shower. Then, as usual, she gave a few instructions and left. She left her alone here for the night.

This time, he did not go to the company. He just found that there was a loft on it, which could be used to go up with a herringbone ladder, and there was a folding bed inside, which could sleep with people.

He went to a nearby supermarket, bought the cheapest quilt and pillow, and slept overnight in the attic of the store.

…………

After one night, the next day was the weekend.

Chen Xu got up early in the morning, went to the nearest market, and started purchasing.

After paying the deposit, he only had more than 500 yuan left. However, he still had a quota of 2,000 yuan in Huabei, which was enough to buy ingredients.

At noon, he pulled Chen Ziqi over to help.

"Hey, I never promised you to do this." Chen Ziqi arrived at the store and looked at the greasy stove, refrigerator, and walls. Her scalp was a little numb, and she refused.

"I'll cook for you, but I haven't calculated the food expenses with you yet."

Chen Ziqi argued with reason, "What you said at the beginning was that you cook and I wash dishes, but you didn't ask for food expenses. It would be too immoral to increase the price afterwards."

"Then you can only eat takeaway in the future."

"No." Her face collapsed immediately, "How unhealthy is takeout."

"Do you do it?"

Chen Ziqi reluctantly put on glue gloves and said angrily, "You are using child labor, it is illegal, do you know?"

The two of them had been busy for nearly an afternoon and finally cleaned the entire store inside and out.

Chen Xu finally praised her and said, "I will add chicken legs to you tonight."

Chen Ziqi swung her gloves into the basin, "Is it like to send me a chicken leg?"

"Add one more ham sausage at most."

"I have seen someone who is stingy, but I have never seen someone who is so stingy." Chen Ziqi collapsed on a chair and worked hard for the whole afternoon. She was so tired that she didn't want to move.

In the next few hours, she watched Chen Xu work hard in front of the stove, constantly adding various ingredients to a large pot of boiled water.

"Are you not ready yet?" She sat there, her phone running out of battery. Seeing that he was still busy there, she couldn't help asking, "My stomach is almost hungry."

"immediately."

Chen Xu scooped up a little with a spoon, tried it, and nodded with satisfaction. The pot of soup was finally ready.

In the recipe given to him in 2003, he did not pursue the time of boiling, but paid more attention to freshness. This time he cooked more, so it took him a little longer.

He asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Chen Ziqi said without thinking, "Noodles."

"Okay." Chen Xu put a bowl of noodles for her, brought it to her, took out a piece of red paper, wrote it in a big pen, and posted it to the door.
