52. The noodles are undercooked

There was not enough light in the inn, but I could tell if the other party was male or female, and through the dimness of the inn, I narrowed my eyes and looked at the man standing in front of me vigilantly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The man in front of me was not tall, about the same as me, his tattered clothes and shabby pants looked like a beggar disciple, and under his fluffy and messy hair was a blurred face, but his eyes were bright and shiny, and he looked at me and made me feel uncomfortable for a while.

Although I can't see his face clearly, I know that he will definitely not be a ghost, and I am also a good young man who has crossed the new century, and I still believe in the simplest scientific truth.

"Who are you?" I asked, looking at him in the posture of a shopkeeper.

"Hey, hey, hey...... You're the shopkeeper of this inn?" the man asked, looking at me with a strange smile.

"Nonsense!" I glared at him angrily, "I'm not the shopkeeper here, are you?"

"Hey, hey, hey...... If you don't mind, I'd love to take over the inn!" the man said with a strange laugh.

Listening to his words, I couldn't help but be stunned, damn me, what's the situation?

"Who are you?" I asked, staring at him.

The man looked at me and smiled, clenched his fists and said, "Okay, under Zhang Qing!"

"Zhang Qing?" I repeated his name in confusion, who is Zhang Qing? I haven't heard of it, I don't seem to have heard of a ruffian hooligan named Zhang Qing around here!

Looking at my hesitant eyes, the man laughed a few times and said: "In Xia Zhang Qing, nicknamed Caiyuanzi, he also opened a hotel called Xishan Hotel, and you want to say that you are an inn...... ," he said, turning his head and looking around, "...... It's not as good as my Xishan Hotel!"

"Zhang Qing, Zhang Qing, do you mean ......?" I hesitated to look at the man in front of me who looked like a beggar, but my head was constantly thinking about the origin of this name, what did he just say? He is a vegetable garden? And he also opened a Xishan hotel? As far as I know, there is only one person who can open a hotel, also known as a vegetable garden, and that is ......!

"Oops...... , is the shopkeeper back?" Just as I was about to blurt out who Zhang Qing was, a burst of laughter like a green bell sounded, and a delicate figure flashed over from the side, and the figure continued while laughing: "That brother of mine just now also said that the shopkeeper is affectionate and righteous, and for a small piece, take him to teach the bully a lesson, giggle...... , In this world, I'm afraid there is no such a brave hero as the shopkeeper, right?!"

Looking at the figure that came to me like a whirlwind, I couldn't help but be stunned again, the figure in front of me looked neat and smiled and groaned, but it was not a beauty who could be seen, at most it was an aunt-level character, and it was also a rural aunt.

"Are you ......?" I looked at her hesitantly.

"It's easy to say!" the aunt in front of me looked at me with a smile, "They all call me 'Erniang', if the shopkeeper doesn't dislike it, just call me 'Erniang'!"

"II...... Erniang?" I looked at the aunt in front of me dumbfounded, turned my head and looked at the person who claimed to be called Zhang Qing, even buy karma, what's the situation? There was a magistrate urging the judge before, and there was another Zhang Qing and a Sun Erniang in front of me, didn't this old Chen Tou'er plan to give me all the one hundred orders and eight generals before it was finished, right?!

……

Knowing that the people who came were Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang, then I had nothing to worry about, I opened the door of the inn to let Su Daji and Li Yuanba in, and after a brief introduction, they got to know each other, when Sun Erniang heard me say that the beauty in front of me was the legendary Su Daji, Sun Erniang was very interested, took her hand and walked to the side to chat privately.

I don't know when Li Li also appeared, listening to Zhang Qing's explanation, I knew that Li Li noticed something was wrong as soon as he walked into the inn just now, but he didn't know what was wrong, but when he saw Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang, he couldn't help but take the two of them to hide behind to catch up, and directly forgot about us who were waiting outside, damn, this guy who forgets his righteousness!

Li Yuanba, who was standing next to me, looked up at Zhang Qing in front of him curiously, petite and cute, he couldn't see that he was the madman, when Zhang Qing listened to me after introducing who Li Yuanba was, Zhang Qing was suddenly in awe, and he hugged his fists again and again, but Li Yuanba was an ignorant child, and after a simple greeting, he looked at me and shouted hungry.

Since these two people were also brought by Lao Chen, then I can't be lazy, after saying hello, I turned around and walked into the back kitchen, it's not because Li Yuanba, a little kid, shouted that he was hungry, even if he wasn't hungry, I had to cook, because ...... I'm hungry too!

"Shopkeeper, you seem to know that big brother!" Li Yuanba, who walked into the back kitchen behind me, looked at Zhang Qing, who was talking to Li Li in the lobby behind him, and looked at me and asked crisply.

"I don't know!" I replied without looking up.

"But I can see that you've heard of those two people!" Li Yuanba continued to ask without giving up.

"What if you've heard of it?" I glanced at him, stretched out my hand and lit the fire, "Hearing doesn't mean knowing!"

"But why do I think that the shopkeeper is a little afraid of them?" Li Yuanba continued to ask crisply.

Listening to his words, I couldn't help but be stunned, afraid of them? Can I not be afraid of them? Anyway, these two are both well-known characters in the Water Margin heroes, and they specialize in opening a black shop to make human meat barbecued pork buns, and they are ruthless and outrageous, can I not be afraid of them?

I glanced at Li Yuanba with disdain, and said casually: "I said Xiao Li, I'm also a young man in my twenties, don't always call me the shopkeeper, we are all so familiar, just call me Brother Xia in the future!"

"Oh, Brother Xia!" Li Yuanba shouted honestly.

"Let's go out and wait, the beef noodles will be ready in no time!" I threw the prepared noodles into the hot water pot without raising my head.

"Oh!" Li Yuanba responded crisply, turned around and walked out of the back kitchen.

I picked up a pair of chopsticks and gently stirred the noodles in the hot water pot as Li Li did, and as soon as the noodles surfaced, I took the noodles and served them in a bowl, then sprinkled with finely chopped green onions, poured the boiled beef broth, and then sprinkled the cut sauce beef.

"Come on, come on...... Don't talk yet, continue to talk when you're full, and try the beef ......noodles I made!" I walked into the lobby with a bowl of steaming beef noodles and put it in front of Zhang Qing with a smile.

"Shopkeeper...... Belch...... Brother Xia, I want it too!" Li Yuanba, who was sitting on the side, who had long been impatient, looked at the beef noodles in front of Zhang Qing with a blank eye, looked at me with a dissatisfied expression and shouted.

"Your noodles will be here soon!" I said casually, turning around and going back into the back kitchen.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Qing and Li Yuanba had steaming beef noodles in front of them, and as for Su Daji and Li Lima, they would be indispensable when the second pot came out later.

"Try it, this is the beef noodles I cooked myself!" I said with a smile as I looked at the three of them expectantly.

Zhang Qing grabbed the bamboo chopsticks, looked at me and laughed and said, "You're hungry in the lower abdomen, then you're welcome......

"You're welcome!" I replied with a smile.

In response to my laughter, Sun Erniang and Li Yuanba also grabbed bamboo chopsticks and ate them.

Merely...... When Zhang Qing ate the first bite of noodles, I realized that something was wrong, it stands to reason that this buddy should be very hungry, as long as they are hungry, they will not care whether it is delicious or not, because they have only one purpose, that is, to fill their stomachs first, but I saw Zhang Qing stuffing a mouthful of noodles but was not in a hurry to chew, and the two thick eyebrows were slowly twisted together.

"What's that...... Brother Zhang, beef noodles...... Isn't it delicious?" I asked with concern.

"Ah...... Zhang Qing didn't speak, and Li Yuanba, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly spit the noodles in his mouth on the table, and shouted with disgust: "What kind of beef noodles is this, it's unpalatable ......!"......

Sun Erniang, who was sitting on the other side of the wooden table, had also put down her bamboo chopsticks, and it was obvious that she didn't like to eat the beef noodles I cooked.

"It's hard to ...... Eat?"

I looked at the three people in confusion, stepped forward and grabbed the chopsticks and ate a big bite, but as soon as the noodles entered my mouth, I felt a little pinched, I, my noodles...... Not cooked?

It's impossible, just now I was obviously waiting for the noodles to float before they came out of the pot, and the old soup and sauce beef are also the ones that Li Li has been using before, how could it be ......?

"Shopkeeper, beef noodles are not cooked like this!"

Li Li, who was standing on the side, looked at me with a disgusted expression, said coldly, turned around and walked towards the back kitchen.

Looking at his back, I suddenly reacted, I am the shopkeeper of this Yuelai Inn, he is just a guy, who in the world dares to talk to the shopkeeper like this, hey...... , you stop for me, the beef noodles will be cooked later, let's make it clear first......!
