Chapter 62: The Foodie's Touch
"This old gentleman, you haven't eaten for a few days?"
As soon as a fat man walked into the hall, he was startled by Cai Shouqing's appearance.
Cai Shouqing's chopsticks kept colliding with the plate, making a crisp sound. The deep-fried golden tofu is wrapped in a rich sauce.
The taste is fresh and sweet, not greasy at all.
Just watching from the sidelines, my stomach was hungry.
"Bring me a piece of tofu. The fat man pointed to Cai Shouqing's dining table and said, "It should be like that." ”
"Okay. Chen Han said, "One hundred and sixty-eight." ”
"What about teasing me?" the fat man was obviously taken aback by the price, "my family lives on the other side, and everyone is a local, so you have to do business with your conscience. ”
"Yes. Chen Han still didn't change his words, "Tofu is at this price, fried rice and fried noodles are cheaper." ”
The fat man's face softened slightly, and he asked, "How much are these two?"
"It's only eighty-eight. ”
"It's all sold for eighty-eight, and it's only?" the fat man turned his head and left, came to the door and spat fiercely, "Black shop!"
But the further I went, the heavier my steps became. The scent of tofu had already aroused roundworms in his stomach.
However, as soon as he walked out, how could he go back.
Forget it and come back later.
In the hall, Cai Shouqing put down his chopsticks, the corners of his mouth involuntarily smiled, he thought of picking wild fruits in the mountains when he was a child, going to fish in the stream, holding the honeycomb honey given by the villagers, and running fast.
Every scene is a sweet memory.
Cai Shouqing's heart was crisp and soft, as if it was placed on cotton wool, floating in the air, the warm sun was shining on his body, and every pore on his body was opened, which was extremely comfortable and comfortable.
That's how it feels.
Good food brings happiness and pleasure.
Cai Shouqing was immersed in the wonderful atmosphere, and his breathing became gentle and long, and he was reluctant to open his eyes for a long time.
"Are you still satisfied with this delicacy?" Chen Han peeled off a piece of mint candy and threw it into his mouth.
It had just opened, and because there was no publicity in advance, the business in the store was relatively deserted.
Cai Shouqing opened his eyes, glanced at the plate that he had eaten, and recalled that he left the Chen family, had no appetite to eat for a day, and lay down in front of the desk to write until one o'clock in the morning, and published the article, his face was getting lower and lower, and he wanted to get under the table.
After a while, he picked up his mobile phone, opened Weibo and browsed to "The Death of Food", which has been commented and reprinted more and more, and this article has attracted attention.
But it's, after all, wrong.
Cai Shouqing deleted the article and looked up at Chen Han: "Thank you, you let me taste the real food, it is much more delicious than the Zhu's tofu in Yipin Kitchen." ”
"I like your words. Chen Han said with a smile, "Only by comparing can we distinguish the advantages and disadvantages." ”
"Yes. Cai Shouqing suddenly clenched the teacup, his fingers turned white, "I apologize to you for this article." ”
The kitchen was open, and when Han Muxue heard this, she plucked out her ears, suspecting that she had heard it wrong. That's a gourmet, and he actually apologized to Brother Xiao Chen.
Chen Han picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water for Cai Shouqing: "It's all over, Cai Lao, your demanding food is respectable." ”
"Oh, I'm ashamed. Cai Shouqing wiped his forehead and drank the water, "Can I go into your kitchen and take a look?"
"Please. ”
Cai Shouqing walked around the kitchen, found some scraps of quimbles in the bowl, wiped his fingers on the bottom of the bowl, leaned over his nose and sniffed, and muttered: "With heart, no wonder you can make a happy meal." ”
Walking out of the kitchen, Cai Shouqing walked up to Chen Han and said very solemnly: "I plan to recommend you to "Late Night Food", please be sure to stick to it." Having such a small shop will add a lot of color to the food and beverage in Linhai City. ”
"You've got a compliment. ”
"Gone, I'll come back. ”
As soon as Cai Shouqing walked on his front foot, Han Muxue jumped happily, jumped a few times holding Chen Han's arm, and said, "Brother, Cai Lao recommends you, then you will definitely be able to be on TV." It's going to be famous soon, I'll go wash the dishes first, don't move, just sit down and rest, your hands are for stirring the spoon, I'll do the rest!"
Chen Han didn't expect that the little sister was even more excited than herself.
However, washing dishes is also manual work, followed by sweeping the floor, wiping the table, throwing garbage and other chores.
In the future, I will continue to look for ingredients, and I will also need to run errands.
We need manpower!
It's still sloppy, drive Zhao Jinhu and them away so early, and before finding the right manpower, they still have to use it.
At noon, customers came to the Bright Candle Cottage one after another.
When I saw the menu, my face was more and more exciting, and some people seemed to be humiliated and thunderous.
"Is it April Fool's Day? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"I've never seen anyone like you. ”
The price excludes the individual customers.
Seeing that it was almost two o'clock, a fashionably dressed man walked into the restaurant.
"I paid attention to the decoration of this store, the design is really beautiful, and the words on the signboard at the door, I never get tired of looking at it!
"Yes. ”
"I'm so young, I'll take a look at the menu. ”
"The stuff in our shop is delicious. Han Muxue hurriedly handed over the menu, her little eyes full of anticipation.
"If it's delicious, I'll come to ...... every day in the future" The fashionable man's voice suddenly froze, and he didn't speak for a long time looking at the menu.
"There are not a few dishes on the menu, little brother, you are not ready, don't open a restaurant. Things didn't suit my appetite either, and I walked away. The fashionable man put down the menu and ran away.
"I didn't eat it, how do you know it's not appetizing. Han Muxue pouted, frowning and a little discouraged.
She knew how delicious Chen is tofu was, and it was impossible to forget that delicacy after eating it.
If customers taste it, they will definitely agree.
This joy can be shared.
Pity...... No diner is willing to try it, and they must feel that the price is too high.
In the kitchen, there was a continuous sound of knives, and the eager rain hit the plantains.
Chen Han made two servings of fried rice.
"Still eating?" Han Muxue rubbed her little belly, "I'm already full." ”
Chen Han looked for the chopsticks at the table and said, "You are resting, both are mine, there is no yours." ”
"Well, it's not. Han Muxue smiled shyly, held a piece of fried rice in front of her, and stopped her with one arm, "You just made one for me." ”
"Nope. ”
"Just, don't lie to me, I know you care about me. ”
The two of them were talking, and in the end, Han Muxue really ate enough, and handed a small half bowl of fried rice to Chen Han: "I have left." ”
Chen Han took it and pulled it into his bowl, "Eat it, you deserve it." ”
"Who made you make it so delicious. Brother Xiao Chen, I borrowed that half bowl from you, and when I'm hungry, you have to remember to pay it back. ”
"Hey, let's make a face. ”
After two o'clock, no more customers came to the door.
The air conditioner was slowly blowing a cool breeze, Han Muxue was lying on the table playing games, and lost in a few minutes, muttering for a while, sleepiness swept over, and fell asleep.
Chen Han turned up the temperature of the air conditioner and cleaned up the ingredients in the kitchen. Peel the green onions one by one and put them away for later use.
"Bang!"
Two shirtless, tendon-clad men burst in, breaking the peace of the restaurant.
"Where's the boss?" shouted the man with broken eyebrows, heading straight for the kitchen.
Han Muxue twisted her body, stretched her waist, and watched the two enter the kitchen irritably, not knowing what was going on.
Chen Han saw the two of them looking around in the kitchen, and asked curiously, "What are you guys in?"
"The Shenwu Regiment does things, don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Broken eyebrows said viciously.
The two didn't find anything in the kitchen.
Broken eyebrows opened the phone, showed the photos inside, and showed Chen Han: "Do you see what this kid looks like? He is very dangerous, if he escapes to your store, it may threaten your life." ”
"Really?" Chen Han glanced at the photo, the man was sitting cross-legged on the bed, the room was simple, he was black and thin as iron, and his smile gave people a rustic feeling.
"I can still lie to you, he's already killed a lot of people. Broken eyebrows said, "If you find him, just go to the martial arts hall diagonally opposite and say it, the clues are useful, and you will be rewarded with 10,000." ”
"Let's go!"
The two of them came and went quickly.
Chen Han walked out the door and saw them searching for the next store. There were five or six men across the street doing the same thing.
"What are they doing?" Han Muxue leaned over, a little curious.
"I don't know, it's none of the business with us anyway. Do you want anything else to eat?"
"If you still eat it, I'm going to die of weight if I eat it like this. ”
"Then I'll buy myself some mangoes, strawberries and oranges. Chen Han walked towards the fruit supermarket not far away.
"I want strawberries too, milk strawberries. ”
"Woman, didn't you say you wouldn't eat?"
"You didn't say you were eating fruit. ”
The two picked the fruit, hooked their shoulders and returned to the store, blowing the air conditioner and eating oranges.
Chen Hanmei raised Erlang's legs, and the sweet and sour grapes were thrown into his mouth, which was very pleasant.
This is life, and it's much more fun than fighting, killing, and killing.
After eating a bunch of grapes, Chen Han called Zhao Jinhu and asked if he had time at night to help out in the store for a while.
"Boss, no problem. In the microphone, Zhao Jinhu's high-spirited voice came out.
"I'll settle your wages for you. ”
"Help the boss, where else can I ask for any salary. ”
"You still have to ask for it, after all, if you don't do it well, I'll have to pay a fine. ”
"Uh...... Can you still punish me for my pants?"
Chen Han hung up the phone, put the peels on the table into the trash, flipped through his phone, looked at the recipes of Yipin Kitchen that had been saved earlier, and pondered what should be introduced for the next dish in the Bright Candle Hut.
An unfamiliar number came in.
As soon as Chen Han connected, he heard a voice inside asking excitedly, "Brother, I'm in Jianglong Town." ”
"Who are you?"
"Wu Baoyang, the one who raced with you. You gave me a nose of motorcycle exhaust, and then I went to the pedestrian street to try to find you for a drag race, and I ended up poisoning your food. ”
It turned out to be the rich second generation.
Chen Han recalled in his mind and said, "There is a new dish in the restaurant, do you want to come and try it." ”
"Yes, absolutely! Give me the address. ”
