Meng Anhui's cooking skills are great, but she has no experience in running a restaurant.

In order to make the eldest sister's restaurant profitable as soon as possible after it opened, Meng Songhai provided a lot of constructive suggestions.

The night before the restaurant opened, at the suggestion of Meng Songhai, Ouyang Zhou and Meng Anhui invited relatives and friends to the restaurant for dinner.

Although it was clear that no gifts would be accepted, many guests still prepared red envelopes.

"Brother Liu, I didn't tell you, I don't accept gifts." The eldest brother-in-law, Ouyang Zhou, resolutely rejected the red envelope given by a friend.

"It's not much, it's just a heart, you can take it." The man surnamed Liu smiled and stuffed the red envelope to Ouyang Zhou.

"Brother Liu, before you came, many people came, but they didn't accept red envelopes." Ouyang Zhou returned the red envelope to his friend, "In the future, when you come to the restaurant to eat, you can get a discount, but it will not be free, I hope you can understand, hehe, and I hope you will bring more friends over for dinner in the future." ”

"In the future, whether I invite a guest to dinner or a friend invites me to dinner, I will come to you." The man surnamed Liu smiled and put the red envelope in his pocket, "I'll go in first, wait a while, let's have a few drinks." ”

"Well said."

After more than ten minutes, Meng Songhai, who was busy in the kitchen, saw his eldest brother-in-law Ouyang Zhou come in, and asked with a smile: "Brother-in-law, have all the guests arrived?" ”

"It's almost there." Ouyang Zhou said, "Now you can serve the food." ”

Ouyang Zhou walked in front of Meng Songhai and saw his brother-in-law making a dish of braised river shrimp, and said with a smile: "Songhai, thank you for your hard work." ”

"Brother-in-law, what is your family's politeness?" Meng Songhai smiled, "If you want to thank me, treat my eldest sister well." ”

"In my family, your eldest sister is Lafayette." Ouyang Zhou said with a smile.

"Eldest sister, is that so?" Meng Songhai looked at the eldest sister who was cooking with a smile and said.

Meng Anhui turned her head to look at Meng Songhai and said with a smile: "Don't listen to his nonsense, in my family, your eldest brother-in-law is the one who makes the decision." ”

Meng Songhai joked: "I know, in your family, there are no big things, and you take the idea of small things." ”

"Nonsense." Meng Anhui smiled, "Songhai, after the braised river shrimp is cooked, you can go to dinner, don't be tired." ”

"It's okay, let's go to dinner together later."

Meng Anhui didn't insist, but said to her husband: "Don't stay in the kitchen, go out to entertain guests, don't drink too much." ”

"I guess it's hard not to get drunk tonight, hehe, I'm going to toast a lot of people." Ouyang Zhou sneered, "You guys are busy, I'm going out." ”

The braised river shrimp was cooked, and Meng Songhai began to roast the pork liver with green peppers.

While stir-frying, Meng Songhai said to the eldest sister: "Eldest sister, have you slept well in the past few days?" ”

"It's good, I'm confident that I can run a good Taibai Restaurant."

The eldest brother-in-law, Ouyang Zhou, is a fan of Li Bai, and can memorize dozens of poems created by Li Taibai, the name Taibai Bailou was thought up by him, and after he said this name, the names that several other people thought of were invalidated.

"Making money is not the purpose of life, enjoying life is the true meaning of life. Sister, don't tire yourself in order to make more money. ”

"Enjoying life is the true meaning of life?" Meng Anhui smiled, turned her head and looked at Meng Songhai a few times, "Do you want to wait until you earn enough money in the future and stay at home every day to play?" ”

"Money, it's so easy to make enough!" Meng Songhai said with a smile.

"So, you're a discontented person?"

"How can I say it......" Meng Songhai muttered, "I am not an easily contented person, I will think about making a lot of money in the future, but I will not let myself be too tired." Let's just run a restaurant, I like to cook food, but I can't stand it when I walk around the stove every day...... If I run a restaurant, I'd rather spend more money and hire a few right-hand men to help me manage the restaurant, so I can make less money, but I won't make myself hard. ”

"You're so young, why are you afraid of hard work?"

"In today's society, people with bright heads are more likely to get ahead than people who work hard."

Meng Songhai took the shovel in his hand, stir-fried the ingredients in the pot a few times, and continued: "For example, let's say farming, if there are no conditions, I will create conditions, buy a cow first, and when the conditions improve, I will think about buying a tractor, and I will not just think about burying my head in a hoe to plan." ”

"You were born in a good era, if you were born twenty years early, even if you have a big idea, you can't make it happen, and if you don't get it right, you will cause trouble."

After chatting a few words, Meng Songhai cooked another pot of dishes.

Meng Anhui said: "Little Wuzi, don't be busy, go out for dinner, you dominate the stove, Master Wang is a chef, I can only give you a hand." ”

Chef Wang is a Sichuan chef invited by Taibai Restaurant, and Meng Songhai has tasted several dishes such as Kung Pao Chicken made by this chef before, and he thinks that this chef's cooking skills are good.

When Meng Songhai heard the eldest sister's words, he said apologetically to Master Wang, who was chopping vegetables: "Master Wang, I'm sorry, I robbed you of your job, you came to cook vegetables, I'm going out." ”

"Your cooking is better than mine." Master Wang said a word in his heart in a respectful tone, he is not a person who is good at words, he rarely makes sycophants, he can feel that the boss Meng Anhui values Meng Songhai very much, and he can enter the Taibai Restaurant to work, or Meng Songhai made a decision.

Meng Songhai walked out of the kitchen and saw his second brother Meng Guoqiang waving to him.

"Little Wuzi, sit here, I have left a place for you."

Meng Songhai nodded with a smile to indicate that he knew, and on the way over, he greeted many people.

Before Meng Songhai could sit down, Meng Guoqiang poured beer into the wine glass he had prepared.

"Little Wuzi, today, you want to have a few more drinks." Meng Guoqiang said with a smile.

"What's the point?" After Meng Songhai sat down, he asked with a smile.

"Without your help, the eldest sister wouldn't be able to open this Taibai Restaurant. The restaurant is not open, and we will not come here to eat. So, we all have to toast you. Meng Guoqiang smiled and raised his glass, "I'll toast you first." ”

Several people who made the same table knew that Meng Anhui opened Taibai Restaurant and borrowed money from Meng Songhai, not many people knew how much to borrow, and most people thought that Meng Anhui also wanted to borrow money from others.

"Don't toast a glass, just take a few sips." Meng Songhai raised the wine glass, touched it, and after two sips, he put down the wine glass, picked up the chopsticks, and began to eat the vegetables.

Drinking and eating while chatting is not a good habit, but in China, many people have developed this bad habit.

At this time, Meng Songhai didn't have much to talk about, but others took the initiative to chat with him, and he couldn't keep his mouth shut, although he was not so active, he still said a lot.

After eating and drinking, most of them did not leave immediately, but continued to sit and chat.

At about half past nine in the evening, the brothers Meng Guoqiang and Meng Songhai, together with their parents, rode four bicycles home together.

When they got home, the four of them were not in a hurry to go into the bedroom to sleep, but sat in the living room and chatted.

After chatting a few words, Meng Dongyao said: "Guoqiang, Songhai, you will take the train to Yundian the day after tomorrow, when you go out, you must be careful, don't be rash, when you encounter something, life safety is the most important, don't give up your life and money." And ......"

"Dad, don't worry, we're not going abroad." Meng Songhai interrupted with a smile, "Our brothers, such a big person, when we go out, we will be careful and pay attention to the safety of our lives." ”

"Hey!" Meng Dongyao smiled and sighed, "Time flies so fast, you have all grown up." Well, I won't say more. You go back to the house and go to bed early, and prepare well tomorrow, everything you should prepare is ready, don't forget to bring it when you go out. ”
