Zhou Shi looked at Zhou Yutong's expression, and guessed her little abacus in his heart, of course, he was not ready to debunk it, but he still cooperated with Zhou Yutong.

"You don't have to be so troublesome, just eat as much as you want."

Zhou Yutong was extremely excited, and pulled Zhou Shi into the seat with a smile: "Brother, you can try Alan's craftsmanship." He beckoned to Alain again: "Alain, sit down and eat together!" ”

Alan sat down a little embarrassed.

Zhou Yutong was very enthusiastic about adding all kinds of dishes to Zhou Shi, and did not forget to let Alan introduce the recipe of the dishes.

Zhou Shi ate silently but responded, and some probably guessed Zhou Yutong's thoughts, which was nothing more than wanting to keep Alan. However, Zhou Shi and Zhou Yutong did not think about the problem in the same way. Alain's craftsmanship is really good, even he is amazed. However, is Alain really reliable?

To use a person who can use it not only with technology and craftsmanship, but if this Alan has any bad intentions, this is a big problem to eat. Zhou Shi silently put a question mark in his heart.

Zhou Yutong looked at Zhou Shi's silent appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little deflated, originally Zhou Shi's surprise at the beginning gave her a lot of confidence, but why did the more she said, the more silent Zhou Shi became? She's just not fit to pull sponsorship?

There was a little loss in my heart, but I didn't show it, thinking that I would find a chance to talk to Zhou Shi alone, and tell him all my thoughts, maybe I could get his approval.

Dinner was almost over, Zhou Shi looked at the time and said to Alain: "Ali's matter, I have already dealt with it for you, you will live your life well in the future, don't provoke Ali, he won't come to trouble you." ”

"Thank you! Mr. Zhou! Alain was finally completely relieved by now. It's finally time to put an end to that nightmarish life.

"Tongtong, I've almost eaten the meal. I'll go back first. Zhou Shi stood up and walked out.

"Brother, I'll send you." Zhou Yutong hurriedly chased after him.

Zhou Shi knew that she must have something to say to him, and the two walked downstairs together.

Zhou Yutong stubbornly said to Zhou Shi: "Brother, I have an idea." ”

"Well, you say."

"I want to stay with Alain." Zhou Yutong said tentatively, not forgetting to look at the demeanor of the beginning of the next week.

Zhou Shi was not surprised. The face is as usual. "What do you want to do with her?" She cooks well, but there are not many people in the family, and Aunt Chen is enough. ”

Zhou Yutong realized that Zhou Shi had misunderstood his thoughts. Hurriedly explained: "I have a little savings over the years, and yesterday I found out that Alan Zushang is the imperial chef of the palace, and her skills are good, so I had an idea. I want to open a Chinese restaurant in the United States. ”

Zhou Shi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he originally thought that Zhou Yutong's sympathy was overflowing for a while. I just thought that Alan would cook and eat, and I wanted to keep Alan to cook, but I didn't expect her to have such an idea, and I couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

"Have you discussed this matter with Alain?"

My brother didn't nod. How dare I go and discuss with people casually? When the time comes, let Jiabai be happy. Zhou Yutong watched his reaction expectantly.

Zhou Shi nodded, "Even if you are still sensible, this matter." I'm still going to think about it. This Alain didn't know much about it in the first place. I don't know if it's a reliable person, I'm a little worried about leaving her with you for the past two days, and I don't know what the situation will be like when we cooperate in the future. ”

Zhou Yutong listened to Zhou Shi say and considered, felt that there was a drama in this matter, and listened to Zhou Shi think about it so carefully, and felt that it could be done, and he was very happy in his heart. "Thank you, brother."

"Don't be too happy, don't tell her about this yet. Ask her at night if she has a place to go, or something. Zhou Shi said.

Zhou Yutong nodded yes.

When he returned home, Alan was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, so Zhou Yutong walked over to help, but Alan stopped: "You have played with the ingots, this little thing, I will do it enough." ”

Zhou Yutong was not hypocritical, hugged the ingots off the stool and asked him to go to the room to play by himself, but she walked to the kitchen and leaned against the door to look at Alain.

"Alain, have you ever thought about how you will live in the future?"

Alain, who was washing the dishes, couldn't help but stagnate, she knew that Zhou Yutong must have discussed her affairs with Zhou Shi when she went out. However, now that Zhou Yutong really asked, she didn't know how to answer.

She didn't want to live like that before, but what could she do?

What was the result of Zhou Yutong and Zhou Shi's discussion of placing her? Are you going to sweep her out of the house?

"I ......" Alan didn't know what to say after thinking about it, and struggled for a long time. I don't know. ”

"My ticket with Yuanbao is scheduled for next week, and if nothing happens, we will not be in China today next week."

Zhou Yutong felt that although she had such a plan, it was still necessary to tell Alan the actual situation. After all, if Zhou Shi refused to help, Zhou Yutong would be useless if he wanted to open a restaurant, and he wouldn't be able to open it at all.

Alan seemed to have been struck by lightning, although she had thought that it was not easy for Zhou Yutong to take her in for the past two days. But when she thought of the unknown future, she still had a deep sense of powerlessness.

Looking at Alain's depressed demeanor, Zhou Yutong also understood that Alain was afraid that he didn't know how to spend the next few days. He didn't force her anymore, but said:

"Yuan Bao and I are no longer in the country, so this house is empty, and it was originally going to be rented out. If you want, I'll lend you a place to live in, you can go out and find a job first, and if you can't afford it, you can give me some rent every month, and if you really can't do it all, you can live there. ”

Alan listened to Zhou Yutong's words, obviously not as depressed as he was just now, and felt a little relieved, at least Zhou Yutong didn't want to sweep her out of the house, and he was still worried about his life. There was less panic in Alain's heart.

"I've found a suitable job, and I'll definitely give you rent every month."

"This is not in a hurry, now I think you still have to hurry up and find a suitable job, no matter how much money you have, you can support yourself first, right?" Zhou Yutong took Alain's hand and analyzed it for her.

Even if Zhou Shi agreed to this matter and asked Alan to go through the formalities of going abroad, she would have to go back to the store to find a pù. Procedures are not something that can be done in a day or two. Let Alain have a job to do and be able to support herself, but it will be beneficial to her.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, or let her learn to be self-reliant first, otherwise she will feel very tired when she opens a store with her in the future.

Alan nodded: "I'll go out tomorrow to find a job!" ”

When I had just left home. Nothing to understand. I feel that following Awen Ali, eating and drinking all day long is more enjoyable. Now after so many years, she's really tired of it. Especially in the days after Awen was imprisoned, Ali forced her to ...... She really just wanted to find a job and settle down.

Zhou Yutong was relieved when he heard that Alan really wanted to settle down. nodded: "You go out to find it first, and you don't have to rush to find a good job." Have a copy that sits up first and then takes its time. ”

Over the next few days, Alain began looking for work everywhere. Zhou Yutong picked a suitable day to visit his godmother and Song Ke.

When Zhou Yutong went to the United States that day, he talked to his godmother about going out for further study. But it didn't go into much detail. Over the years, he and his godmother and Song Ke will also have phone greetings during the New Year's holidays, but Zhou Yutong has never told his godmother about Yuanbao.

this day. Zhou Yutong also wanted to bring the ingots to his godmother.

dressed up the ingots, and brought the gifts prepared in the United States to the godmother's house.

Because it was agreed before. Song Ke and his godmother were waiting for Zhou Yutong at home early in the morning.

When they opened the door and saw the little doll in front of her hand, which looked like a peugeot and carved in pink, they were both shocked.

"Yuanbao, call grandma, call aunt."

"Grandma, Auntie!" Yuan Bao shouted crisply.

The godmother was stunned for a moment, "Come in and sit, come in and sit." ”

Song Ke also reacted, the door was not the place to speak, and put away his surprise to welcome Zhou Yutong's mother and son into the house.

When I came, I had already thought that my godmother and Song Ke would be surprised when they saw the ingots, and Zhou Yutong didn't think much about handing over the gift in his hand to Song Ke.

"Godmother, Sister Song Ke, this is a little thing I brought back to you from the United States."

The godmother pulled Zhou Yutong's mother and son to the sofa, "Come and bring something, sit down and sit down." ”

Song Ke brought tea to the two of them, and brought out a large pot of snacks and put them in front of Yuanbao.

"Tongtong, this kid?" Godmother couldn't wait to ask.

Although he thought that he always had to explain the truth to his godmother, Zhou Yutong found that when it was time to speak, it was so difficult to speak.

In his hand, he gently touched the head of the ingot, "It's my child, when I went abroad, I was pregnant with the ingot." ”

"Tongtong, you...... Is it Xiao Yi's? "My godmother was shocked by the sudden news, there was no news at all for so many years, and she was suddenly shocked to give her such a big surprise!

Zhou Yutong lowered his head with some guilt: "Godmother, I know that you will definitely stop me from doing this." I'm sorry, but I really can't live without ingots, and so far, the least regrettable thing I've done is to give birth to ingots. ”

The godmother grabbed Zhou Yutong's hand, and her face was shocked: "Tongtong, why are you bothering!" ”

"Tongtong, what happened back then? Xiao Yi, that bastard, doesn't care about your mother and son! I'm going to talk to him. Song Ke on the side was also angry, and asked Zhou Yutong to go abroad to give birth to a child, Xiao Yi is simply not human.

Zhou Yutong knew that Song Ke had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Xiao Yi doesn't know, I don't want him to know." Yuan Bao is my child alone, and I don't want anyone to snatch him. ”

"Tongtong, why do you think so? How could Xiao Yi snatch the child? Isn't it good for you to raise children together? The godmother was very puzzled.

"Godmother, you don't understand, I don't want to be with Xiao Yi anymore, between the two of us, it's impossible." Zhou Yutong's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

The godmother took a tissue and handed it to Zhou Yutong: "You kid, why is it impossible?" You guys were so good at the time, I never understood why they broke up all of a sudden? Just started Xiao Yilai to knock on the side and ask about you, I only blame him for definitely being sorry for you, and he refuses to say anything. Later, when I looked at his dejected look, I realized that he didn't let you go, but you didn't let him say it. So what are you two about...... Cough! ”

"Godmother, don't tell anyone about this, I don't plan to return to the imperial capital in the future, and I don't want to have any entanglement with Xiao Yi. If you do. I'll go into hiding, and I'll never see you again, you know, and I do what I say. Zhou Yutong said stubbornly.

"You kid......"

"Mom, don't cry." Immersed in the ingots in snacks, seeing Zhou Yutong shedding tears, he took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped Zhou Yutong's eyes.

"Okay, okay, Tongtong is happy to see you today. Mom, don't sigh like that. Tongtong is also an adult. She has her own ideas, so don't hold on to them. Song Ke persuaded his godmother.

The old lady sighed and said no more.

Zhou Yutong and the old man haven't seen each other for a long time. said a lot of confidant words, the godmother left the mother and son to eat, and before taking away, she found a jade pendant from the room and wanted to give it to the ingot.

Zhou Yutong refused no matter how she refused, so she could only accept it.

Tomorrow, Zhou Yutong will leave the Celestial Empire with ingots. In the evening, Zhou called at the beginning of the week to send the mother and son off tomorrow. affirmed Zhou Yutong's idea and promised her to help Alan go abroad.

Zhou Shi has always been very supportive of her idea of starting a business or buying some industries. In his own right, he is a person who likes to invest very much. I am also very happy to help Zhou Yutong start a business together. Moreover, this is a trivial matter, and it doesn't cost him anything, and he is happy to see it happen.

The initial doubts all came from distrust of Alain. However, after so many days of observation and visitation, the doubts about her gradually subsided.

Although it's only for a week. Alain really looked for a job outside and did it steadily, although it was a tiring and not very expensive job, and he didn't listen to her complaints. Zhou Shi was half of her graduate school entrance examination.

The other half is to let Zhou Yutong tell Alan about this, but during this time in China, he will continue to observe Alain's every move.

Zhou Yutong understood what Zhou Shi meant and agreed very much. At night, he coaxed Yuan Bao to sleep, and went to Alain's room.

Because of Alain's work these days, he had to go out early in the morning, and he was too tired from a day's work, so he went to bed very early at night. When Zhou Yutong went to find her, she was already lying in bed and preparing to sleep.

"Alain, Yuan Bao and I are leaving tomorrow afternoon."

"Well, I know, you told me, tomorrow I will go to work in the morning, and I will come back at noon to cook you a good meal." Alain's face couldn't hide the tired look, but he was still smiling hard.

"It's out of the way, it's important that you go to work, anyway, we may meet again soon." Zhou Yutong said with a smile while observing this Alan's expression.

"When will you be back next time?" Tell me in advance, and I'll pick you up. Of course, Alan didn't understand the meaning of Zhou Yutong's words.

Zhou Yutong laughed: "Good news for you, the next time we meet, you come to see us in the United States, and I have to pick you up and wash the dust." ”

Alain obviously didn't react, and was stunned for a moment.

"My brother and I have discussed that we want to open a Chinese restaurant in the United States, and you have the skills to ask you to help. I don't know if you want to. Zhou Yutong explained.

Alain was even more shocked, and was speechless for a long time. Zhou Yutong waited for a long time and didn't respond, so he shook Alain. "Don't you want to?"

"No, no, it's just going abroad...... I don't know anything, I haven't even graduated from junior high school, can I really go to the United States? ”

"You can rest assured about this, my brother will arrange it for you, but before that, you have to take a first-class chef's certificate, and you also have to learn English on your own and take a language certificate."

Of course, Zhou Shi will not do everything, and what Alan should prepare by herself has to be prepared by herself, which is also one of the tests for her. If these things can't be done, Zhou Shi will not rest assured that he will invest in her.

"Chef's certificate, there is no problem, but the language certificate ......" Alain was a little embarrassed.

Zhou Yutong took Alain's hand: "Alain, people always have to force themselves, when I go back to the United States, I will find time to teach you a lesson every day, as long as you are willing to work hard, it will not be difficult to take a language certificate." My brother said, when the store is opened, it will be divided into three parts, one for each of you and me, and the money earned will be divided in this way, and you will become a shareholder by virtue of your craftsmanship. ”

Rice country, open a store...... Words seemed to have magic in Alain's ears, and from the moment she was kicked out of the door by her uncle and aunt, she didn't dare to think about her future life.

For so many years, sometimes she would secretly go to her cousin's school and take a sneak look, her cousin was the pride of the sky, and the best schools in the imperial capital along the way, the last time she looked at him from behind, she vaguely heard him talking to others, and he was about to go to the United States for further study.

At that time, Alan snorted coldly and didn't take it to heart. However, at this time, when Alan heard the word Mi Guo, his eyes suddenly lit up. Holding Zhou Yutong's hand, he also trembled excitedly.

"As long as I get the first-class chef certificate and language certificate, will I be able to go to the United States?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yutong replied categorically, and said. "My brother also has a condition, that is, he will not give you any financial support until you pass these things, which means that you still have to work to support yourself."

Alan was silent for a moment, "Tongtong, you're not making me happy, are you?" ”

"Why do you think that? Of course not, I do need you, I finally thought of a good way to make money, how could I tease you? When I go back to the United States, I should go to the store for decoration in the next two days, contact materials and so on. My brother said that there is not much time for you, only half a year! You have to hurry. Zhou Yutong said seriously.

"Hmm!" Alain nodded vigorously, as if he had made up his mind. (To be continued) R580
