“l forgot all about it,” Su Fengmao said. He had a few blank spots in his memory, which baffled him.
When he met Shen Qiuhua later, he felt she had filled the emptiness in his mind and heart and stopped trying to remember what had happened. He no longer cared about recollecting his lost memories.
Su Fengmao noticed his wife looking at him with puzzlement, so he tried to remember why he was in Flower County. However, he felt a headache instead, “Oh…
Shen Qiuhua became nervous and worried, asking, “What’s wrong? Are you unwell?”
“My head hurts.” Su Fengmao felt like his head was about to split open.
Shen Qiuhua became even more worried. “Stop thinking about it and get some sleep, okay?”
“All right, dear.”
Shen Qiuhua deliberately diverted his attention, saying, “Wenwu’s new restaurant will open tomorrow, so we must wake up early to cook breakfast.
After breakfast, we’ll go and help him.”
Su Fengmao forgot about his earlier stress and focused on this instead. He said, “Yes, everyone will be out celebrating tomorrow. Wenwu will feel more at ease if we help him.”
The older couple would help their son no matter what. As parents, they could not help but worry about their children. Since the tofu factory would only reopen after the Lantern Festival, the older couple had time to help tomorrow.
Su Wenwu was always busy with his restaurants, so Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua always pitied him. Still, they were delighted that he could work hard and be positive.
The older couple discussed Su Wenwu’s new restaurant until late. Finally, they went to sleep and woke up early the following day.
The Su family prepared to help Su Wenwu that morning. They had a simple and nutritious breakfast with eggs and porridge. Then, they wore their down jackets and went to the spicy hotpot restaurant.
Su Wenwu was touched when his parents went to help him, even though he told them he had hired several people to help. Still, his parents insisted on helping.
Su Wenwu said, “Father, Mother, don’t tire yourselves out. It’s just the right time for the market to open.”
Shen Qiuhua added, “People will buy things quickly. Opening your restaurant at the right time is more crucial.”
Su Wenzhe chimed in, “That’s right, Third Brother. We’re family, and there’s nothing else to do, We can work together.”
Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai had yet to go to school since it was still the holidays. Therefore, Liu Yinyin stayed home to care for them while her husband and the others helped Su Wenwu.
Even Shen Qiuhui and Shen Mohen went to the restaurant. Lan Ruozhu also wanted to see how the restaurant would do.
Meanwhile, Su Binglan figured Lan Ruozhu could learn and understand more about the people if he attended the restaurant’s grand opening.
Su Wenxiu typically stayed home to prepare medicinal herbs because he was usually busy. Also, the family would not need his help and only needed him to stay home if someone needed him.
However, he went to help this time because he wanted to learn how to run a business from Su Wenwu. That was because Su Wenxiu considered opening a herbal porridge and soup restaurant in the future. The family thought it was an excellent idea and supported his decision.contemporary romance
When Su Fengmao entered the restaurant, he said, “This place is so spacious.” Su Wenwu’s restaurant even had a second floor so that the place could accommodate many people. Nonetheless, it was still early, and the restaurant had yet to open.
However, Su Teng Market had opened as many people came to set up their stalls before dawn.
It was just in time for the Lantern Festival, and many came to buy and sell things at the market. They wanted to buy lanterns and firecrackers for the festival.
According to tradition, people would set off firecrackers in the middle of the afternoon. There were not many people setting off firecrackers in the morning. Even if there were, there would only be a few scattered ones.
Su Wenwu told his father, “l thought I’d receive more customers, so 1 took the initiative and opened a second floor. That way, I won’t have to renovate the restaurant again.”
The hotpot restaurants he opened in town were big enough initially, but he later received too many customers and realized he could not accommodate them.
Many people queued up outside the restaurant daily, especially during winter, when hotpot became the staple food for people. Many businesspeople from other towns and villages also enjoyed Su Wenwu’s hotpot. Sometimes, the queueing customers would have to wait an hour before entering.
Even if Su Wenwu wanted to expand the restaurant, he could not buy the shop next door because others had rented it to see their food.
Therefore, Su Wenwu used this experience to prepare two big shops for his newer restaurants in other places. He would typically buy two shop lots and make them two stories high. That way, he could accommodate more customers without making them wait too long.
Su Binglan said, “This place is excellent, Third Brother. You’ll have enough space for so many customers.”
Su Wenwu sighed in relief upon hearing his sister’s affirmation. Soon after, the chefs and waitstaff arrived. They were stunned when they gathered and saw the Su family.
The employees grew ecstatic when they saw Su Binglan. She resembled a legendary goddess to them. Moreover, she even advised them on things to take note of during the employee meeting.
The employees were ecstatic when they heard her advice. They wanted to perform their jobs well and make as little mistakes as possible,
When it was about time to open the restaurant, Su Fengmao placed a few firecrackers at the door. After Su Wenwu gave the thumbs up, Su Fengmao and Su Wenzhe set off the firecrackers.
Su Teng Market was massive, with one side of the market closer to the restaurant. Those who were closer heard the firecrackers and could not help but look toward it. Immediately after, they saw the restaurant’s name.
“Su l s Mala Hotpot?”
The people might not know what mala hotpot was. However, they were even more interested when they saw the Su familys name attached to the restaurant.
“Did the Su family open another gourmet restaurant?”
“It looks like a spicy hotpot restaurant. I wonder how it tastes.”
“l know! I saw Third Young Master Su when I went to buy multi-grain pancakes. I asked him about it, and he said mala hotpot is similar to regular hotpot. It’s supposedly just as delicious but cheaper.”
The crowd’s eyes sparkled when they heard that. They initially planned to go about their day. However, they became interested in the restaurant and decided to check it out before returning to their shopping..
