Chapter 8 An Original Sentence Engraved on a Wooden Table
Just when Jiangbei was melancholy about how to bring the farmhouse back to life, Liang Liang behind him suddenly got up.
"Guests!"
Jiangbei didn't speak, but his eyes lit up.
It's not easy, and finally another guest comes to the door.
"But we haven't prepared ingredients for days!" said Liang Liang in embarrassment.
It's a very real thing that you can't cook without ingredients.
"In business, guests must be greeted when they come to the door, and they cannot be turned away. Jiangbei said.
"Got it. Liang Liang nodded and trotted out to greet the guests.
"Welcome to the visit, please inside. ”
When Jiangbei heard the sound, he naturally got up and returned to the table to clean up the food and put it in the back kitchen.
When guests come to eat, it is always bad to see this kind of leftovers.
Of course, one of the more important reasons for coming to the back kitchen is that he has to see what other ingredients can be made in the kitchen and whether he can serve the guests who come to eat today.
"A guest?"
"Hmm. ”
"Okay, will I eat in a private room or in the courtyard?"
"Yard it. ”
"Okay, please come with me. ”
The farmhouse is quiet, so quiet that you can hear the conversation in front of the house in the back kitchen.
It is rare for a guest to come to the farmhouse for dinner, but at the same time, it also makes Jiangbei breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
A small number of people means that guests will not order too many dishes.
There is still a chance.
After putting the leftovers away, I went out with a rag to wipe the table where I had just eaten, and I happened to hear the conversation between Liang Liang and the guests in the courtyard again.
"Here's the menu, you see what you need to order. ”
There was a bit of happiness and nervousness hidden in the cool tone, probably because this was the only guest at the farmhouse for a week, but because there were no ingredients to prepare.
"Do you have any signature dishes that you can recommend?"
"Yes, farmhouse fried pork, crockpot chicken, and five-flavor fish head are all our signature dishes here. ”
"Then I want a five-flavor fish head. ”
"I'm sorry, but the fish head has been sold out. ”
"Sold out?"
The tone of the guest was a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect that such a farmhouse that didn't even have customers during the peak meal period would sell out of ingredients.
"Then a sweet horseshoe mud. ”
"Sorry, this one is sold out too. ”
"What about the ants going up the tree?"
"Sorry, no ......"
"Dried plum cabbage and pork?"
"This one doesn't ...... either"
"Beef stewed potatoes?"
"No... There is no ......"
Then there was a brief silence, and a cool apology.
"So, what do you have?"
The guest seemed to be very talkative, and there was no hint of anger or dissatisfaction in his tone.
"This ...... I need to go to the back kitchen and ask. ”
"Can I ask for two dishes and one soup?"
"I'm going to pass it on, please wait a moment. ”
This was the end of the conversation, followed by the footsteps of Liang Liang hurriedly walking in.
"Brother, what should I do?" Liang Liang came in with a melancholy face.
The business of the farmhouse is extremely bleak, so the ingredients are decreasing day by day.
Avoiding wasting ingredients is one point, and the other is stopping losses.
In fact, even if you reduce the ingredients, plus Tianjiangbei eats at the farmhouse every day, you can still bring a little meat and vegetables back to cook another meal when you go home at night.
The business of the farmhouse is really terrible.
It's so rotten that you don't even need to prepare a single ingredient.
In today's situation, it is really an accident.
But now it's definitely too late to buy ingredients, so you can only use local materials.
Jiangbei remembered that there were still some freshly ripe seasonal vegetables in the yard, including eggplants and tomatoes.
The refrigerator in the kitchen has half a pound of leftover meat from today's cooking, water spinach and eggs that I bought more.
Meat with eggplant can make a meat foam eggplant,
Water spinach can be stir-fried.
Eggs and tomatoes can be made into tomato egg soup, which is exactly two dishes and one soup, and the meat and vegetables are evenly matched.
In this way, there is a dish.
"Ask the guests if they can have eggplant with minced meat, stir-fried water spinach, and egg soup with tomatoes. ”
"Okay, I'll go. Liang Liang hurriedly ran out to communicate with the guest, and soon sent back the message, and the guest said that he could.
The two breathed a sigh of relief and began to act separately, and soon the sound of stir-frying sounded in the back kitchen, and from time to time the waiters could be seen busy in and out.
Sitting in the pavilion wrapped in green bamboo, looking at the scene of picking seasonal vegetables through the green shade, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
This shop is really hot.
It's so hot that you can't even prepare the ingredients.
I don't know if the boss counts the money every day until his hands cramp, and he laughs until his mouth twitches in his dreams.
But then again, the environment of this store is really good, and it is suitable for gathering with three or five friends in your leisure time to enjoy the idyllic time.
The green bamboo courtyard in front of the court, the tree-lined path paved with bluestone slabs, the antique courtyard buildings, the green bricks and white tiles, and the green shade and green bamboo.
The pastoral style is self-contained, and the only pity is that the positioning is not good.
The farmhouse theme is not suited to today's fast-paced market, especially in this area.
"It's a pity. ”
Sighing lightly, Sui Xi subconsciously put his hand on the table.
Accidentally touched some strange lines.
"Huh?"
When I looked down, I saw that there were words engraved on the table.
"The past covered by the years, the white horse passed through the gap, and hurriedly cast a touch of sadness. ”
At a cursory glance, it's a beautiful sentence.
Savor it, the meaning is endless.
The sentences are beautiful, and the words are good, not like they were rubbed, but more like they were carved out by people with carving knives one stroke at a time.
"Which book did this quote come from?"
Sui Xi likes to read books very much, thinking that this sentence must be from the hand of a literati, with appreciation, he took out his mobile phone and put this passage on it to search, hoping to find its source.
But to her surprise, there were no results.
This is an original sentence!
"Your dish is here, sorry to keep you waiting. At this time, the waiter Liang Liang brought the freshly prepared dish and apologized very sincerely.
"It doesn't matter. Sui Xi responded with a smile, but what was revealed between his eyebrows was a reflection on the original sentence.
So much so that even when tasting the dishes, I was a little absent-minded until I ate a bite of eggplant with meat foam.
Rotten but not scattered, oily but not greasy, the meat foam and eggplant flavor are perfectly combined.
It's surprisingly delicious!
Taste this soup.
New Year's Eve picked up a spoon and filled a small bowl of soup, blew it lightly a few times, and drank it.
The sweet and sour tomatoes, the tender aroma of the eggs, and the perfect harmony of chopped green onions make this soup a perfect quality.
Delicious!
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect this farmhouse that was on the verge of closure to have such a good chef, and only a few plates of home-cooked dishes could be so perfect.
It's a pity that the restaurants she invested in are all hot pot chains, otherwise she would have to dig into the wall.
It's hard to find a chef.
This meal is very fragrant, she only eats half a bowl at a meal on weekdays, she rarely eats a big bowl today, and she has eaten more than half of the two dishes, and she has drunk two bowls of soup, and her small belly under her clothes has risen.
Fortunately, today's clothes are more casual and don't strangle the stomach.
Rao was like this, she also felt a little embarrassed, got up from her seat, and was about to take the mobile phone on the table to go to the checkout and leave, but she saw the original sentence engraved on the wooden table.
The ghost sent the gods, and sat down again, and called the waiter, and asked curiously, "May I ask if you carved this passage yourself?"
Liang Liang thought that the guest would have to pay, and the bill and calculator were ready, but it turned out that the guest did not want to pay, so he quietly hid the bill and calculator behind him, nodded behind his back and replied: "Yes, this is engraved by our boss himself, and every table has it." ”
Every table has it?
Sui Xi was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Can I take a visit?"
"Absolutely. ”
