Good Luck in the Year of the Pig

Chapter 49:

The entire store was silent.

"Close the door???" Fei Qiqi covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Boss, are you joking?"

"Yang, Brother Yang, what are you talking about?" Lu Ying stared at Yang Sigu in disbelief.

Yang Sigu smiled calmly: "Because of my personal work, I have to take my family to live abroad. So I don't have the energy and time to continue operating the bakery. So I decided to close the shop. Don't panic, I You will be paid back three months' salary."

"Boss, are you serious? It's too sudden!" Fei Qiqi cried, "It's a pity that our store's business is so good." And I learned a lot, and the atmosphere has always been good.

Lu Ying was in a daze, speechless. It was the happiest job he had ever had, and he thought he would continue to do it. Brother Yang suddenly wanted to close the store, which really caught people off guard. But Brother Yang is the boss, the shop is also his, and it is his freedom to make any decisions.

"You don't know how, Boss Yang! Are you really going to close? Then where will we go to buy bread in the future, if we eat bread from your family, others will not be able to eat it at all."

"That's right, why doesn't Boss Yang keep doing it? I'm used to buying things from your family for breakfast."

In addition to the shocked clerks, customers in the store came to ask questions

"It's a waste of time to close the business so well. What about our recharged membership card?"

Yang Sigu was unmoved, and continued: "I will let the clerk notify every recharge member that you can come and refund the money anytime in the near future. Sorry, my job is more important, I can only regret it Drop the bakery. Thank you all for your recognition and support.”

"Boss, don't you want to directly transfer the store? There are so many professional machines in the store." Brother Qiang squeezed forward, staring at Boss Yang with burning eyes, and his heart was about to move, he had already After working for many years, now the craftsmanship is more and more mature, and I have long wanted to open a store. What a good opportunity now, everything in the store is ready-made, and there are accumulated word of mouth from old customers.

Lu Ying looked up at him and hesitated. He actually wanted to take over the shop, but he and Brother Yang were too close to speak. Moreover, such a big store also includes all the equipment, and the transfer price cannot be cheap. If he was given a cheap price, he would be even more embarrassed.

"Of course I want to transfer, it's better to take over with my peers. But the transfer fee, equipment, plus rent, all the costs are not cheap. I will put the price on the intermediary later, you guys Anyone who wants to take over can call me and tell me that the price is reasonable." Yang Sigu looked at the time and waved his hand: "That's all I have to say, you can keep busy. I will work on other small things. Group notification."

"Brother Yang, wait!" Lu Ying couldn't help but chased out.

Brother Qiang looked at him impatiently, his face suddenly sank, and he scolded something silently. He looked up at other colleagues and asked anxiously, "What do you think? Does anyone want to take over the store? I don't have much money, so we can partner!"

"It's really a pity not to continue, the business in the store is very good..." A male employee was obviously moved.

Another curious question: "How does Brother Qiang want to cooperate?"

Brother Qiang had a happy expression on his face: "Let's go and talk in detail. Now the question is about the relationship between Lu Ying and Boss Yang, will they be the first to come..."

"He? What kind of bakery does his boyfriend run..."

"Maybe..."

Fei Qiqi felt bored when she heard their muttering. She hoped that Lu Ying could take over the shop, so she would continue to do so, and she didn't have to worry about the reputation of the shop without Boss Yang's reputation. decline. Although Lu Ying was the latest of them all, his craftsmanship is obvious to all. Whoever is better and who is worse, the sales volume will not deceive people.

"Brother Yang, tell me the truth, why did you suddenly close the bakery? Didn't you say you would wait for Xiaolu Kindergarten before moving to the capital? There is no sign at all." Lu Ying was confused He followed behind Yang Sigu.

Yang Sigu said with a smile as he walked: "The plan can't keep up with the changes. I just received an offer from Guanlan University and decided to go back to teach at the university. The education in Guanlan City and the capital is very good, so I simply brought Lao Lu He Xiaolu will go there to live together. I have entrusted Liu Dichuan to take care of the house and shop here, and I will go back to Qixia Mountain to gather after the New Year’s holiday.”

"This, this has been decided?" Lu Ying didn't expect Brother Yang to arrange it so well, it seems that he is determined to move. He was very reluctant and could only sincerely wish: "Congratulations to Brother Yang. It's good to be a teacher in a university, and Xiaolu must be more suitable to live there." Brother Yang has always been very powerful. Now, it is obviously a good thing to go back to the old business for the sake of the children and the family.

Yang Sigu encouraged: "I'm leaving with you, Grandpa Lu, but your life has to go on. Do you want to continue the bakery? It doesn't matter if you don't have money, you owe it."

"...I want to think about it." Lu Ying hesitated.

Yang Sigu sighed: "Your grandfather Lu has always felt guilty for you. He didn't teach you any way to survive, and he didn't leave you property. If you want, it's better to take the cub with us. Let's go together, don't forget we're a family. My house in Guanlan is big enough to live together. Go there, I can help you reopen a bakery, you can be your own boss, trust me, You can definitely do it, even better than me. You're more dedicated than I am. I have a lot of hobbies and it's easy to get distracted and lazy."

"I'm such an old man, and I have cubs. How can I disturb your family. Grandpa Lu doesn't need to feel guilty for me, it's not easy for him to raise me. Thank you Brother Yang Good intentions!" Brother Yang's proposal sounds good, but Lu Ying is very calm. If Grandpa Lu is alone, he will not hesitate to live with Grandpa Lu and take care of Grandpa Lu for the rest of his life. But Grandpa Lu has his own lover and children, so he won't be so ignorant.

Yang Sigu patted Lu Ying's shoulder, "No matter what the decision is, you should consider it carefully. I will leave in half a month. Tell me the answer after you have made up your mind. Before you reply, I won't pass on the bakery to anyone else. Go, get busy."

Watching Yang Sigu leave in a hurry, Lu Ying was very tangled for a while. Depressed, he returned to the bakery, ignoring other people's eyes, and continued to work. Anyway, one day at work, one day must be done well.

My subordinates are busy, but my mind keeps spinning. First of all, this opportunity is very good. Once seized, he is confident that he will continue to operate and will never ruin his reputation. However, if he is the boss, the time he spends with the children will be greatly reduced. Although there is a pick-up and drop-off at Jin Dachu, the two are completely different. Moreover, he is serious about changing Zizai to a good primary school, and the nearby ones have long been excluded. Once you take root here, it will be a problem where the cubs go to read.

And…

His relationship with Qin Zhuopu has reached this point, almost all relatives and friends on both sides know about it. When the two places are separated, Qin Zhuopu can only continue to run back and forth. Sometimes Lu Ying feels guilty when he sees him coming and going in a hurry. Moreover, Qin Zhuopu was involved in so many inexplicable things on the Internet recently, and he was already very upset.

The gang had nothing to do with Qin Zhuopu.

He is clearly the lover of Qin Zhuo, Pu Zhenger!

On the way home from get off work, Lu Ying checked the news on her mobile phone, and the star named Lu Ying couldn't jump up. Netizens were all attracted by Qin Zhuopu's calmness. It's him not her! Such an obvious statement shocked the people who paid attention to Qin Zhuopu.

Netizen a: Damn it, the boss is coming out of the closet!

Netizen b: Dad is worthy of being a dad, he is so magnanimous!

Netizen c: I'm going to buy a lottery ticket! I had long suspected that Qin was always gay, but he actually fell in!

Netizen d: The storm is crying, why do good men like men?

Netizen e: What a shame that Lu Ying's face hurts! Hahaha, if you change your personality, maybe everyone will believe you.

Netizen f: 嘤嘤嘤 I envy that Mr. ly!

Netizen g: Where did the two men come from? Is it adopted? Ask for information! want to eat melon

Netizen i: The boss of the Tangtang Group is actually gay, so disgusting! I wish your stock fell dead!

…

Lu Ying swiped a lot of comments and news on the Internet, and the more she looked, the more anxious she became. He sent a message to Qin Zhuopu: "Is it okay if you say that online? Will it affect your company's stock? Will the company's executives blame you?"

Qin Zhuopu quickly called and smiled: "You care about me so much?"

"Bullshit! Of course I wish you all the best."

"Ha, then what if I go bankrupt and live on the street one day?" Qin Zhuopu asked with a smile, saying that even he felt naive, but he just wanted to hear Lu Ying's answer.

Lu Ying rolled her eyes at the phone, "You underestimate me too much, even if you go bankrupt, you can't live on the street! I would make money without you, but if it really gets to that point, I won't support you at all. question."

Qin Zhuopu sneered: "What if I go bankrupt and still owe a huge sum of money?"

"Should your company's stock really fall? Otherwise, how can you ask these questions..." Lu Ying held her breath nervously.

"You haven't answered me, what if I owe a debt?"

Lu Ying took a breath: "Then what else can I do! I'll help you pay it back slowly! Don't ask any questions, tell me if it has any effect? Otherwise, you should delete the meager account. Well, we can just be happy when we fall in love, there is no need to let others say it."

Qin Zhuopu, who was sitting on the boss chair, turned around and smiled, "Don't worry, a meager piece will not affect the stock. Don't say I choose a man to be with, even if I choose a pig Together, it doesn't bother anyone else."

“…” Lu Ying was silent. What can he say? With him, with pigs, no problem at all! (*^▽^*)

Qin Zhuopu looked at the sunlight and lush green plants outside the window, in a good mood, "I will marry you one day, there is nothing invisible. When we are open and honest, our children will be honest. swing."

Lu Ying was stunned for a moment: "What you said makes sense." If two people are together and flinch and hide, after a long time, the child's heart will definitely change, maybe he will feel His family ties are 'hard to tell' to outsiders. He didn't want his children to be like that.

"Did you sign the document I left you with?"

Lu Ying pulled her hair: "I forgot about that, I haven't seen it yet. I'll take a look when I get home, what is it? You bought me a house again? Actually, two It's enough."

Qin Zhuopu sneered: "You will know when you see it."

"Okay okay, I'm home, I'll video with you tonight."

Lu Ying returned home, closed the document after reading it, and exhaled a long breath.

He didn't expect Mrs. Qin to give such a big gift after she apologized. Although he doesn't know how much the 10% dividend of the jewelry company is, it is definitely a number that he can't reach. As for the farm where Mrs. Qin sent the cubs, he was relatively calm.

Lu Ying told Zaizai about the farm in detail, and the little guy really liked it. Lu Ying smiled and carefully put away the information.

Lu Ying didn't tell Qin Zhuopu that the bakery was closing. In the early morning, he stepped into the bakery with mixed feelings, and everyone arrived one after another. When Brother Qiang saw him, he was obviously nervous and bad.

Lu Ying ignored him with a light glance, and was busy dealing with the membership refund, and sent a message to Brother Yang by the way.

Brother Yang, I thought about it for a night yesterday, and I don't plan to take over the shop. You should transfer it to others as soon as possible, but I advise you to keep your own signboard, it is all your hard work.

Yang Sigu replied immediately. Even if you don't tell me I'm not going to sell the sign. It's okay to tell you secretly, the English abbreviation actually means 'Qianchuan', at least in my mind.

Lu Ying's eyes lit up, and she typed with a smile. I suspected it before, but I didn't dare to confirm it. It turns out that there really is a story, huh, so sweet!

At first, I was called 'deer' because I thought it was too shameless, but I changed it to be more subtle.

Hahaha…

After chatting with Yang Sigu, Lu Ying's whole mood became very clear. He is more and more eager to have his own bakery, choose a name he likes, and make his favorite desserts.

In the evening, Lu Ying had a dream. In the dream, he opened a bakery and named him 'pig', but Qin Zhuopu jumped out and strongly objected, saying that the name was too ugly and tasteless Not in the style of a dessert shop at all!

Waking up in the morning, Lu Ying rubbed her messy hair and wondered what name would be better?

"Cub, if Dad opened a bakery, what do you think would be a good name?"

Lu Zaizai was excited, "Wow, is Dad going to open his own shop and be the boss?"

Lu Ying shook her head: "No."

Lu Zaizai sighed: "Then what's the use of asking. First of all, you must have a shop."

“…”

Cannot refute.

Cold winds quickly moved into December, bringing rain along the way. In an instant, it felt winter, and people put on clothes to keep out the cold. The bakery was deserted, everyone was there, but the atmosphere was very negative.

Lu Ying and Fei Qiqi sat at the front desk and dealt with the members who came and returned their cards from time to time. The others stayed in the workshop and were not in a good mood, because Brother Yang was unwilling to transfer the signboard, and Brother Qiang, who wanted to take over, felt very unhappy, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and found a partner to take over the bakery. Now waiting for the final handover.

Lu Ying buried herself in taking notes, and Fei Qiqi answered the phone.

"By the way, this is Mr. Qin's membership fee, and the balance is one thousand eighteen. Well, now I will transfer it to Brother Lu, pay attention to check it." Fei Qiqi pointed at the information with a smile.

Lu Ying was taken aback: "Did you tell him?"

"Of course, I am responsible for notifying every member. Mr. Qin is also our member, but Mr. Qin told me that the balance can be called directly to you."

Lu Ying helped her forehead. He thought he was hiding it well, but he forgot about it. Qin Zhuopu knew that he was unemployed, but he didn't tell him about it at all... Don't you want to take this opportunity and ask him to go to Guanlan City for development?

What was he thinking...

It was December 10th, and it was still raining, but the bakery belonging to Brother Yang was officially closed.

The old signboard has been taken down and the shop has been fenced off. Brother Qiang can't wait to call the construction team. Anyway, the decoration equipment in the store is ready-made, and he does not plan to change it. Just change the sign and the guests will still come back.

"Goodbye Brother Lu, goodbye Boss Yang!" Fei Qiqi wore her casual clothes, waved her hand with a bright smile, and was the first to leave the bakery where she worked.

"Goodbye Kiki."

Sending Fei Qiqi away, Lu Ying didn't want to stay anymore, picked up her umbrella and walked into the rain with Yang Sigu.

"Brother Yang, I'm completely free now, and I'll take you to the airport the day after tomorrow."

Yang Sigu did not refuse: "Okay, it happens that we salute a lot, and it is inconvenient to hold the child. It would be better with your help. Unfortunately, why don't you come with us?"

"Haha, I don't want to be a light bulb!" In the rain, Lu Ying walked briskly. Although she was no longer working, she was very relaxed.

Yang Sigu smiled like a spring breeze: "You have to remember that in the eyes of Grandpa Lu and me, you will always be your own child." He has done so much, I believe Lu Ying will definitely encourage Have the courage to pursue your own happiness.

“… um! I know!”

Lu Ying nodded vigorously, holding back her tears. How lucky he is, when he was the weakest, Grandpa Lu adopted him and gave him support. Since then, I have had a lot of friends, and everyone laughed at his young age and loved him when he grew up. It was these partners who made him an optimistic person, the most considerate companionship and encouragement, and gave him endless courage.

On the day Grandpa Lu's family left, Lu Ying went to deliver it early, and he didn't turn his head to leave until they passed the security check. Back home alone, Lu Ying was still a little dazed. Such idle days are too awkward for him, and he doesn't know what to do. Sitting on the sofa, watching the news and programs of the English channel, watching for a day, until Lu Zizai came back from school.

"Dad, Grandpa Lu, Uncle Yang, and Sister Xiaolu really left?" Lu Zaizai grabbed Lu Ying and asked with a depressed expression.

Lu Ying nodded: "Yes, they went to Guanlan City."

Lu Zaizai suddenly pursed his lips and wanted to cry: "Why do you want to leave... I miss Grandpa Lu and my sister. Why do you have to go to Guanlan City? Uncle lives so far away!"

"Be good, don't cry. I'll see you in the future. Guanlan City is not far away, just next door."

"Then when are we going to find them?" Lu Zizai immediately looked forward to it.

Lu Ying smiled, touched her son's head and assured: "When you go on winter vacation, Dad will take you there."

"Wow!"

"But you have to promise Dad a condition."

"What conditions?" Lu Zizai asked hurriedly.

Lu Ying squatted down to be level with her son, looked at his innocent eyes seriously and said, "After we go to Guanlan City, we will live with our uncle. In the future, you have to call his father, is it okay?"

Lu Zaizai was surprised, stared at his father's eyes, and asked ignorantly, "Why?"

Lu Ying smiled: "Because he is your father."

Lu Zizai tilted his head, still didn't understand, raised two fingers: "So I will have two fathers in the future?"

Lu Ying nodded and said firmly: "Yes, from now on you have two fathers, one more father than others."

"Wow, it sounds so cool and powerful!" Lu Zizai's eyes brightened, and he asked at any time: "But are you married? You can only call your father when you are married, right?"

"Whether you get married or not, he and I are your dads and we'll love you very much. Just remember that."

Lu Zaizai nodded solemnly and grinned: "Okay, then I'll listen to you. Next time I see my uncle, I'll call his father, right?"

"No no no! No!" Lu Ying immediately told his son mysteriously, and whispered: "We want to surprise him, we can't let him know our actions, so you have to..."

The father and son murmured for a long time, and finally discussed the plan.

When I woke up the next day, Lu Cuizai was still talking about 'secrets, I want to keep secrets'.

Lu Ying smiled and sent her son to school. After returning home, she couldn't be idle anymore. She dug out the oven he bought for more than 400 yuan and prepared to make some desserts at home. pregnancy. Originally, there was a complete range of baking materials and tools at home, all of which he used to practice at home. Although the oven is very simple and the tools are not as professional as those in the store, he does not seek quantity but quality. He slowly enjoys the process, and finally bakes ten six-inch chiffon cakes, and picks out three chiffon blanks to make carefully. Shape, the whole out of two beautiful and delicious cartoon fruit cakes.

Lu Ying was very satisfied with the finished product, put it on the table for decoration, then took a picture and sent it to the circle of friends!

Full score Dad: Two freshly baked six-inch chiffon cakes! Anyone want it? Home delivery as long as it's not far!

There are many customers and residents of the community in his WeChat, as well as former colleagues from all walks of life, but before posting on the Moments, he has blocked Brother Qiang and others.

Soon, there were several messages in his circle of friends.

Fei Qiqi: Wow! Brother Lu is great! Support you!

Lu Ying replied: I call this freelance ^_^

Fei Qiqi: Great! I also want to learn from you to start my freelance career in the community!

Lu Ying: Come on, you absolutely can!

Yang Sigu: Thumbs up! That's fine, I did that too at first,

Lu Ying: Thank you, Brother Yang.

Chunchun Mom: Xiao Lu, I want one!

Lu Ying: Private chat.

Lu Ying quickly sold her first cake, 188 yuan. He took a screenshot of Chunchun's mother's building number, and soon another resident sent him a private message.

their home.

Sold ten cakes in one day, and the money earned was very hot. Lu Ying smiled. Lu Zaizai, who sent cakes everywhere, was happier than him and found it funny.

When Qin Zhuopu was free to look at his mobile phone, Lu Ying's circle of friends made him stunned, and then he smiled helplessly. His lover is really restless all day. But doing it this way is actually more cost-effective than part-time work. Lu Ying must be very happy.

"Hee hee, guess how much money I made today?" In the video, Lu Ying smiled like a lucky cat.

Qin Zhuopu raised his forehead and teased: "I earn so much, do you want to send me a red envelope?"

Lu Ying nodded readily: "What's the problem!" Then he quickly sent a red envelope.

Qin Zhuopu opened it and saw that it was '1314'. He was hit hard in his heart.

"I'll be generous!" Lu Ying was very happy: "I was worried about whether anyone would want it, but fortunately those customers trusted me. It was sold out in one breath today, and there are still some that have not been grabbed. I ordered desserts for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Unfortunately, the weather is getting colder, the equipment at home is not complete, and the fermentation of toast and bread is not good at all, so the cake is better. I plan to cut it and sell it tomorrow. higher!"

Qin Zhuopu said sincerely, "My daughter-in-law is amazing! She looks the best when she is serious!"

Lu Ying blushed: "Calling a daughter-in-law ugly, it's very dirty!"

"What's that called?" Qin Zhuopu asked with a smile.

Lu Ying's face is magnanimous: "Call it baby!"

"Pfft, good baby baby" Qin Zhuopu kept shouting deliberately in a long tone, which made Lu Ying blushed, and only stopped after being scolded.

Lu Ying went to the market the next day to buy all kinds of packaging boxes after delivering the child. When he got home, he started to work. He only baked five cakes that day. I cut three of them, divided them into thirty small cakes, and filled them in sequence. One cup was fifteen pieces. I took a picture and posted it on the Moments. Now it's on sale! Anyway, he has grown the courage to sell as much as he can, even if he can't sell it all, he can eat it! Absolutely no loss.

After losing her job, Lu Ying started a new career like this. It just happened to usher in Christmas and New Year's Day. Lu Ying's orders soared. slip. On the two days of Christmas, he hadn't slept for five hours together. He tried his best to drive out the largest order in history. He was exhausted during the delivery. In the end, Jin Dachu took the cub to help him complete it. deliver goods.

Sleep up and prepare to continue the New Year's Day, Lu Ying's oven is not dry, and she immediately strikes and works.

"...woo!" Lu Ying wanted to cry without tears, she threw away the broken oven without hesitation, and hurried to the supermarket to buy a new one for her home. She couldn't help muttering to Qin Zhuopu at night: "This is a waste of ovens, and household ovens can't last long and have to be scrapped. It's not cheap when you think about it."

"So it's more cost-effective to open a store if you want to expand. Professional large-scale equipment is durable."

"Yes." Lu Ying was moved, but didn't say anything to Qin Zhuopu.

New Year's Day in the blink of an eye, the end of the Year of the Pig in the solar calendar, ushered in the Big Brother Year of the Rat. But the lunar month is still the Year of the Pig. Lu Ying is inexplicably nervous and looking forward to it. He is looking forward to the place where he wants to go before the end of the Year of the Pig.

On the 20th of January, the 12th Primary School officially had winter vacation. A week later, Lu Ying and Lu Zaizai went to school to get their transcripts.

"Principal, thank you for taking care of Lu Zizai this semester."

The principal sighed: "Mr. Lu is very polite, this is what I should do. The library you donated to the school has greatly helped the children, and I will always be grateful to you. Lu Zaizai, If you go to a new school in the future, you must study hard and make progress every day.”

"I will, bye Principal."

"Goodbye."

The two of them pushed their suitcases and left the campus to board the train to Guanlan City.

Lu Zaizai said that he had never been on a train, and this time he happened to experience it.

When walking out of Guanlan Railway Station, Lu Ying let out a long breath. This place, after seven years, no, eight years, he finally came back.

Drag luggage and drag her son through the crowd, called a taxi, and Lu Ying reported the address of the familiar community.

Yes, a very familiar address, always keep it in my heart.

Arrived at the community smoothly, entered the community by brushing face smoothly, and finally stood at the door of the house smoothly.

Staring at the closed door, a nostalgic smile appeared on her face.

Lu Ying stretched out her finger and pressed the password she had memorized in her heart.

It seems to open the door to the mysterious fairy tale world, and the fairy tale will have a happy ending.

A pair of big hands reached out and took him into his arms fiercely.
