In September, the autumn is high and cool, and the cinnamon is fragrant.

"Agar wine, drunken immortals;

Five-flavor dishes, full stomach;

Yuquan rice, strong muscles and bones;

If you ask, you will live in heaven. ”

In the streets and alleys, children with drooping hairs clapped their hands and sang catchily.

Curiously stopped, "Little girl, what are you talking about?" ”

The little girl looked at him with big eyes, shook her head, and was about to answer, when her mother's cry came from the entrance of the alley: "Erya, Erya, come back quickly, dead girl, she only knows how to have fun all day long, and she doesn't know how to help her mother do something." ”

The little girl waved her hand and continued to sing as she ran: "Qiong Berry Wine, Drunken Immortals; Five-flavor dishes, full ......"

If you ask, you will live in heaven.

Heavenly dwelling?

What is this heavenly dwelling?

Passers-by touched the short beard under their chins, shook their heads and left in thought.

The nursery rhyme spread all over Wucheng and spread directly for several days, and on this day, the mystery was finally unveiled in front of everyone.

South Street, on this day, the gongs and drums, the lion and dragon dances, so lively that half of the street people followed to watch.

When they followed to the original Changsheng Restaurant, everyone knew that the Changsheng Restaurant, which had been closed for nearly a year, was about to reopen, and it was still the original shopkeeper Liu, wearing a decent blue robe, energetic and smiling towards the neighbors.

"Shopkeeper Liu, where have you been all these times? I thought that my brother had lost his business and didn't do it, so he went to enjoy Qingfu. ”

"Haha, where, where, it's just a break, no. It's reopened again, and I have to thank you for the blessings of your brothers and neighbors, and you will be patronized and taken care of in the future. ”

"Of course. Since it's just a reopening, is it possible that the name of the store has also been changed? ”

The speaker pointed to the plaque covered in red silk, which drew everyone to look up. Those who do the pù line of shops know that if they just reopen, they don't need to lift the plaque.

Shopkeeper Liu just smiled, smiling a little mysteriously, just when a guy came to inform him that the time had come. Suddenly the gongs and drums were noisy, the firecrackers rang out, and the shopkeeper Liu pulled a corner of the red silk. Pull it down hard.

The red silk slowly fell, slowly revealing a few dazzling golden words.

"Heavenly dwelling?"

Heavenly dwelling.

Someone was talking out loud. Onlookers inhaled.

Yikes! It turned out that the "heavenly residence" that spread all over the streets and alleys and came out after a long time was actually this place, and it was actually the original prosperous restaurant.

"Agar wine. Drunken Immortals; Five-flavor dishes. "There were children dancing and singing beside ...... again.

"Brothers, neighbors, our heavenly residence is not the original prosperous restaurant, the wine and dishes in it have all been changed, the wine is the most famous agar jade liquid in our Wucheng, such a good wine in addition to the agar syrup hall, only our heavenly dwelling can drink. The dishes are invited by Chef Gao Zhongyi, a famous chef in the south, and Chef Gao promises to make a new dish for the first ten guests who enter the restaurant every day, so that you will want to come back after eating. ”

Shopkeeper Liu's words are here. The inhalation sound around is louder, and the elixir jade syrup is not to be said. That Gao Zhongyi is the most powerful chef in the south recently, and won the first place in this year's chef competition.

But the shopkeeper Liu's words were not finished, only to hear him continue: "There is also this Yuquan rice, this is not the ordinary rice we usually eat, this rice is produced in Yuquan Village, it is said that the Yuquan of Yuquan Village was the wine gourd left by the rising immortals, the Yuquan rice watered by this spring water, not only soft and delicious, but also has the effect of strengthening the body, this is not my brother, I boast, it is the result of the research of several Langzhong in Wucheng, there are several Langzhong are also ready to put this rice into medicine, in order to cure diseases and save people, if you don't believe it, you can go to verify." ”

After Shopkeeper Liu finished saying this, there was really a Lang Zhong among the onlookers who said: "Shopkeeper Liu is true, this Yuquan rice can indeed strengthen the muscles and bones, and eating it often is beneficial to the body." ”

Some people still have to ask again, but some people are impatient and shout: "Shopkeeper Liu, don't stop the door, since the heavenly residence is so good, and don't open the door to welcome guests, I still want to grab those ten places and eat the dishes cooked by Chef Gao." ”

"Yes, yes, this little brother is right, blame the old brother I got carried away, hahaha, everyone please, please!"

Shopkeeper Liu stepped aside, and the little brother who had just spoken rushed in first, and behind him, many people rushed in.

The two rows of juniors behind the shopkeeper Liu hurriedly stepped forward to guide and greet them, and introduced the guests into the seats one by one, and in a moment, the lobby was full, and the upstairs box was already fully booked.

In the innermost box at the east end of the second floor, Liu Qin, Jiang Li, and Xiao Wu took Fang Nuo and Xingsheng Ankang around a table.

A man in his mid-thirties stood slightly bent to the side, extremely respectful.

"Brother Gao, you are now the premier chef in Jiangnan, and we still have to rely on your signboard."

"Childe said this, but he killed Zhongyi, if there is no childe, how can there be Zhongyi today, how can there be today's tall chef, the grace of Gongzi, Zhongyi will be difficult to repay in this life."

"Hehe, Brother Gao, just kidding, don't be so restrained, look at a few of them, they are very comfortable in front of me, and they don't take my son seriously at all."

The previous words are well said, why is it so unflavorful when you get to the back?

Prosperity and health looked at each other, what's the matter? How did this fire get to our heads?

Changsheng has always been bold, and immediately retorted, "Childe's words are not right, the conscience of heaven and earth, when do we dare not put Childe in our eyes?" Do we have that much courage? ”

"Really? Then who refuted my words just now, and only listened to Brother Ali? ”

Liu Qin glanced at him obliquely, and everyone realized that they were still unhappy about what had just happened, so they had to make a bitter face, lower their heads, and Changsheng also sat down quietly and stopped talking.

Isn't it because there are too many people, I didn't let me wander around the street, and I need to remember it until now, and I feel slandered.

"You." Jiang Li nodded her head, turned around and smiled at Gao Zhongyi, who was inexplicable and a little apprehensive: "Brother Gao, go get busy, Gongzi is joking, you don't have to take it to heart." ”

"Yes, I'll make a few specialty dishes later, and invite the sons and young masters to taste them."

"Hmm."

Gao Zhongyi retreated, seeing the lobby full of guests, as well as the hot scene in the back kitchen, listening to the respectful call of the chef and the reverence in their eyes, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

He couldn't have imagined that he still had today.

At that time, Changsheng Restaurant declined, there was not even a guest, as one of the assistant cooks also lost their jobs, everywhere hit a wall, could not find something to do, when the food was not good, Liu shopkeeper came to the door.

not only borrowed his money to support his family, but also funded him to go around to learn the special dishes of various places, take the strengths of all families, and knead them together to form his own characteristics.

I have been hobby cooking since I was a child, just because my family is poor, no one to teach, I worked as a cook in the restaurant, and secretly learned cooking.

A few months later, Shopkeeper Liu brought himself to Gongzi, and only then did he realize that Gongzi had been helping him all along. (To be continued.) )
