Chapter 21 In the Restaurant

One day slipped away quickly, and before making dinner, Su Wei followed Aunt Tian into the kitchen, and Uncle Tian and Xiao Ning were not allowed to follow up. He said he wanted to surprise them at night.

Aunt Tian looked at Su Wei throwing so many chili peppers into the soup, and looked worried: "Miss, there are too many oil and chili peppers!" What kind of dish needs so much oil and pepper for this stir-fry? "Can you still eat it when it's fried?

"Not much, not much. I've put very little of it. As he spoke, he poured in the other anise ingredients. knew that Aunt Tian and the others must have eaten hot pot for the first time, so Su Wei didn't make it too spicy this time.

After stir-frying the spices, pour in the bone broth that had been boiled in advance. For a moment, the smell of the kitchen fills the nose.

After boiling the hot pot base, pour the cut beef, meatballs, pork, chicken, and some small cabbage into it, and after a while, all of them are placed in a large iron basin.

There was no vessel for hot pot here, so Su Wei had to cook it and put it in an iron basin.

The two carried the hot pot into the dining room together, and Uncle Tian saw it and hurriedly came over to help.

Everyone sat down together and looked at the big pot of meat and vegetables.

"Bang Bang, surprise, this is a super delicious thing that your young lady made in the afternoon. I'm sure you'll want to eat it again! "Su is the only one who proudly recommends to a few people.

"What is this doing, Miss?" Xi'er held the chopsticks and asked suspiciously.

"Miss said this is a hot pot, it's delicious." Aunt Tian repeated what Su only said.

"Then why does Aunt Tian put so many chili peppers, can this still be eaten?" Xiao Ning looked at the spicy and reddened soup and deeply doubted whether she dared to eat it.

"Miss said it was delicious, it shouldn't be bad!" Aunt Tian was still a little uncertain.

Looking at the obviously disbelieving eyes of several people, Su Wei put a chopstick into his mouth and chewed it twice: "Don't believe it, it's really fragrant, you taste it." This tastes really good, the original, although it is worse than eating in modern times, but there are no additives at all, it is completely natural food!

Xi'er saw that the young lady was enjoying it, swallowed her saliva greedily, and couldn't help but put a piece of meat in her mouth, and the whole meat aroma and numb and spicy fragrance filled the taste buds.

Xi'er chewed twice, swallowed like a jujube, and stretched out her hot red little tongue: "It's a little spicy, but it's really fragrant, Xi'er has never eaten such delicious meat, Sister Xiaoning, Aunt Tian, you taste it."

Uncle Tian also took a pair of chopsticks and nodded while eating: "Well, it's really delicious, you can taste it."

Seeing that Miss and Xi'er were both eating with relish, Xiao Ning couldn't help but take a piece and taste it, and the meat in her mouth became more and more vigorous the more she chewed. The more you chew, the more fragrant it gets.

Everyone ate one piece and then the second, and everyone ate crimson with a red face.

Uncle Tian said excitedly: "Miss, my Uncle Tian has never eaten such a delicious and special dish when he traveled from south to north!"

Su Wei said with a smile: "Uncle Tian, when the restaurant is bought, we will sell hot pot, this weather will not be long before autumn, and the business will definitely be very good at that time."

"Yes, when the weather is cold, eat this hot pot. Spicy and hot, no one doesn't like it. "It's still the young lady who is smart enough to come up with such a method.

On the second day, Su Wei packed up and came to East Lane with Uncle Tian. There were people on the street, and the restaurant was not open today, so Uncle Tian stepped forward and knocked on the door.

A shopkeeper opened a door, and said directly without waiting for Uncle Tian to speak: "Don't do business today, the two of you want to eat and come back another day!"

"This little brother, we are not eating, are we looking for your shopkeeper?" Uncle Tian asked.

"Is there anything you have to do with the shopkeeper?"

"Of course, there is something important to discuss with your shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper looked at the two of them, and they didn't look like bad people, so he said, "Come in!"

The two entered the store, and the shopkeeper put down a stool on the table, cleaned it up, and poured a pot of tea for the two: "The two days of being harassed by those splashes have been endless, and the shopkeeper's health is not very good, the two of you will sit for a while, and I will help you go and talk to the shopkeeper."

"Okay, then it's going to be troublesome."

Su Wei didn't speak on the side. Keep a smile on your face. Waiting for Xiao Eryi to leave, he glanced at the restaurant.

The restaurant has two floors, the second floor is a private room, and the downstairs is a hall, and there are about ten tables in the hall, which is not too much but not too little. The whole restaurant is antique, and it is an old object here, but it is obvious from some places that the owner of this restaurant has been carefully decorated.

Half a tea time, the shopkeeper of the restaurant walked over with a haggard face under the leadership of the shopkeeper, looking about forty years old, not much older than Uncle Tian: "I don't know what the two of you are looking for me?"

"That's right, shopkeeper, my son-in-law got the news that your restaurant is going to be resold, so I came here to discuss it with you."

The shopkeeper's expression lit up, and then it darkened again. It's been nearly ten days since I heard the news, and I haven't seen anyone come over to say that he will buy the restaurant, seeing that the restaurant is about to drag on, and he doesn't want to sell the restaurant to Lin Wei, but this person said that he wants to buy his own restaurant, and they don't look like people with money and background, they shouldn't know about Lin Wei, if they buy it, then Lin Wei will definitely not let go of these two people if he knows it.

"You two should be outsiders, I won't sell this restaurant to you, you better leave quickly!"

Uncle Tian was stunned, such a good opportunity, this person is not in a hurry to sell the restaurant, why didn't he sell it when he came!

"Hey, shopkeeper, we are kind enough to buy this restaurant with you, and if you don't sell it, you will drive us away. You won't look down on us as outsiders, will you? ”

"If you don't sell it, I won't sell you, this restaurant is mine, and I can sell whoever I want." The shopkeeper said willfully. It's clear that it won't be sold to you.

Uncle Tian was also in a hurry, and he had told his son that he would not sell it without discussing it.

Su Wei guessed a little: "The shopkeeper is worried about the surname Lin."

"You know?" The shopkeeper thought that the two didn't know, but now that he knew that these two people still came to buy? Aren't you afraid of offending that Lin Wei?

"If I want to buy your restaurant, I must understand things clearly before I come to buy it, so the shopkeeper can rest assured." Su Wei explained to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper still didn't feel at ease after thinking about it, and reminded Su Weiwei: "This son, then Lin Wei is a distant relative of Lord Lin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, aren't you afraid of offending him?"

"I'm afraid, I'm definitely afraid, but I'm afraid of Lord Lin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, his distant relatives don't know where he went, why should I be afraid." Su Wei half-jokingly.

Knowing that the shopkeeper was still not at ease, Su Wei gave the shopkeeper a reassuring pill: "Besides, far water can't quench your thirst, I dare to buy your restaurant, naturally I have my way not to let that splash skin harass." If the shopkeeper is willing, make a price first! ”

The shopkeeper thought about it, anyway, what he should have said has already been said, this person insists on buying, and when something happens, he will be considered benevolent and righteous, and the money will be sent to the door, how can he not make money: "Okay, but this son, I think you should also know that this restaurant has been passed down from generation to generation in my family, and it is also an ancestral thing, and it is still some years." If I hadn't had no choice, I wouldn't have sold it. So I hope that after the son buys it, he will also maintain this restaurant. ”

"Okay, there's no problem with this, Su Jin will definitely agree to the shopkeeper." Su only promised.

"Well, but if Su Gongzi wants this restaurant, the price will be at least two thousand taels of silver." This price is actually not high, I am not low, after all, this restaurant is big, the terrain is good, the only bad thing is Lin Wei's trouble. If it were someone else, he would definitely use this to push down the price of the restaurant and buy it at a low price.

However, Su Weiwei admired this shopkeeper very much, and didn't say a word: "Okay, then it's two thousand taels of silver!" After speaking, Uncle Tian took out a stack of silver tickets from his pocket, exactly ten, each worth a hundred.

"Shopkeeper, this is a deposit, you take it first, and I will pay you the rest of the money when the matter is confirmed."

The shopkeeper accepted a thousand taels of silver tickets and put them in his arms: "Just according to what Su Gongzi said, but Su Gongzi should not call me at the shopkeeper's shopkeeper, now I am no longer the shopkeeper of this restaurant, if Su Gongzi doesn't mind, just call me Uncle Chen, I will take advantage of it."

"I don't know what Uncle Chen plans to do next?"

Uncle Chen sighed: "I'm going to take my family back to my hometown and live a quiet life in the countryside." That being said, it sounds a bit sluggish.

"Then I wonder if Uncle Tian is interested in helping me take care of the restaurant? We can negotiate the monthly salary. Su Weiwei had a smile on his face, but there was a seriousness in his eyes.

"What Su Gongzi said is true?" Uncle Chen couldn't believe it, and his words trembled a little.

"Of course it's true, it depends on whether Uncle Chen is willing or not."

"Willing, willing, Childe is simply my old Chen's lucky star!" Uncle Chen said excitedly.

Uncle Chen didn't expect that he would be able to stay after selling the restaurant, after all, too many of his memories are carried in this restaurant, and the meaning of this restaurant to himself is also different. Now that I can stay, my heart has changed from that disappointment to a feeling of hope.
