Chapter 42: Collecting the Monkeys

When I arrived at the compound, there were already a lot of people at the door of the hotel, and it is estimated that everyone knew about the opening of the hotel, so they all came over at night.

This is all a delay for middle-aged people.

"Hanpi, you're late, you said that the door would open at five o'clock, and now it's ten o'clock. ”

Before he had tied up the cars, a regular customer said.

"I'm sorry for the delay, I'll open the door now. ”

Open the door, put away the things that everyone brought and write them down, and then arrange for everyone to sit down, the hotel has five tables, three ten-person round tables, and two four-person rectangular tables.

Hanpi cooks faster, this is mainly because he is skilled, cutting vegetables and meat is simply smooth, and it is freshly made and cut, which saves a lot of time, stubble after stubble, just go in front, and someone will come in the back.

It can be said that he doesn't even have time to clean up, which is normal, after all, he hasn't eaten a meal made by Hanpi for more than 20 days, everyone is drooling urgently, and now that the door is open, of course the business is good, and it will be easier in the next few days.

"Hey, boy, who are you?"

After everyone left in the end, Hanpi was ready to go out and clean up some outside, but as soon as he got outside, he saw a man who couldn't distinguish between men and women, and was wearing tattered clothes eating those leftovers.

Hearing Hanpi's shout, the person who was eating didn't even look at Hanpi, grabbed a handful of leftovers and stuffed them in his mouth and ran outside.

"Stand!" Hadpi hurriedly chased after him.

"I let you stand and you hear it. ”

It's a pity that he shouted, the faster the person in front of him ran, but no matter how fast he was, he could still run past Hanpi, and soon this person was caught up by Hanpi and grabbed him.

At this time, Hanpi found out that it was a little boy, although the dirt on his face couldn't see what it looked like, but men and women could still see it.

"Let go. The boy said.

"Shout, it turns out that your kid is not dumb, why don't you run away without saying a word. ”

"Oops!" As soon as he finished speaking, this kid actually bit him on the hand. "You kid is a dog, and you bite. ”

"Let go of me, isn't it just stealing a little of your leftovers? ”

This kid is quite stubborn.

"Okay, I don't mean anything, come back with me, I'll make you something hot to eat, what did you say kid run, I didn't want to do anything to you. ”

He was an orphan in his previous life, and he was a wanderer, and of course he knew what it was like to starve, and if he hadn't met his master, a reclusive master chef, he wouldn't be where he is now.

The master took him in and taught him to cook, but unfortunately before he could have the ability to honor the master, the master died, which made Hanpi sad for a long time, and also made him secretly swear that he would become a generation of chefs and carry forward the master's skills.

He did it, became a master chef, and was hired as the head chef of the Beijing Hotel, but he came to this era by mistake.

"You're telling the truth, and you're not lying to me?"

"You kid, what am I lying to you for, let's go, don't be stunned. After saying that, Hanpi let go of his hand, didn't pay any attention to him, and walked to the hotel.

The kid in the back thought about it, and didn't know if he felt that Hanpi was not a bad person, or if he was attracted by the hot meal that Hanpi said, and he really followed.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

"Find a place to cook it, and I'll go cook you some hot food. After saying that, he went into the kitchen.

Hanpi didn't do anything big fish and meat, just made a bowl of hot noodle soup and added two poached eggs, this kid doesn't know how long he has been hungry, big fish and big meat are not suitable for him to eat now.

When he saw that the dishes on the table outside were cleaned up and placed at the door of the kitchen, he knew that this kid had done it, and it was not bad.

"Come, eat. ”

"Thank you!"

"Brother, why haven't you closed the door yet?" Chen Xiao came in from outside.

Hanpi used to close at eight o'clock in the evening, but today has passed and he hasn't gone back yet, so Chen Xiao came out to have a look.

"Hmm! ”

"Brother, who is he?"

Seeing a little beggar eating hot noodle soup, Chen Xiao hurriedly stood beside Hanpi, and then asked.

"Well, by the way, you go back and see if there are any clothes I used to wear when I was as old as him, and then find a set, and I'll take him to the bathhouse in a moment. ”

"Oh, yes, I'll go back and find out. ”

Chen Xiao never cared about what her brother did, and she never asked, because she knew that her brother had his reasons for doing everything.

"What's your name?"

After this kid finished eating, he asked.

"Monkeys. ”

"Monkey? That doesn't seem like a name, does it?"

"It's my name, my mom called me that way I was a kid. ”

I don't know if I feel that there is no malice in the skin, and the monkey talks more and more.

"What about your parents?"

"Dead!"

"Uh! I'm sorry, I don't know. ”

"It's okay, they've been dead for years, and I've forgotten what they look like. ”

After the monkey's story, Han Pi knew that the monkey's parents should have died in the great famine of 59 or 60 years, and he is now fifteen years old, that is to say, the monkey has been a person since he was eight or nine years old, and he is not from the imperial capital, he has wandered all the way and begged all the way.

An eight- or nine-year-old child has not starved to death for so many years, this has to be said to be a miracle, although he was also a street child in his previous life, but that era was different from this era, in that era, even if he asked for food, he could not starve to death.

This era is different, there is no place to ask for food, because the conditions of no one are good, from this you can imagine how much suffering the monkey has suffered and how many sins he has suffered over the years.

"Monkey, would you like to stay?" Han Pi was also moved by compassion, just like his master in his previous life.

"Stay, stay?"

"Yes, stay, stay and learn to cook with me, be my apprentice. ”

"I, can I?"

"Absolutely. ”

"Master! ”

The monkey knelt down with a "plop", called out to the master, and then cried, probably crying out all these years of suffering, all these years of grievance, and all these years of hunger.

"Alright, alright, we don't have this rule here, hurry up. Hanpi hurriedly helped the monkey up.

"Thank you, master. The monkey stood up and wiped his tears.

"Brother, what are you doing here?"

Chen Xiao came in with a few clothes, some cotton clothes and some outer clothes, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he asked.
