By the end of July, it was too hot for the dogs to stand it.

Especially at this time, some people would rather go to a small stall to eat cold noodles and cold skins than go to the restaurant.

The business of the hotel is sluggish, and the weather is one of them, and it is also the time when the farm work in the fields is busy, and families are likely to go to the fields to harvest wheat and sow the next season's grain.

Hong Fu returned to Hongjia Village to harvest wheat, leaving Hong Cheng and Parsley in the hotel.

Duan Xiang and Lao Tian have completed the transfer procedures, and Lao Tian no longer has the right to speak in the matter of the restaurant.

In the past few days, the focus of Duan Xiang's life and work is on the restaurant, and for convenience, he eats and lives in Hong Cheng's hotel.

Hong Cheng was also generous, and promised to let Duan Xiang live in the hotel for nothing, and after a week, he would take the posture of the boss and manage Duan Xiang to collect the money.

Duan Xiang found a small decoration company and asked the workers there to redecorate the restaurant inside and out, and he personally supervised the work every day.

In front of the door of the restaurant that is being renovated, there is a pair of old tables and chairs, the tables and chairs are made of wood, maybe it has been used for a long time, and the joints of many tables and chairs have been loosened, and they squeak and creak when they are used.

Looking at these broken things that had nowhere to put them, Duan Xiang had a headache, and he asked the parsley beside him, "What about these tables and chairs?" Sell it to the ragged collectors, right? ”

"It's better to sell those cents than to split them with an axe and burn them as firewood." Parsley said.

When the restaurant is renovated, these broken things will definitely not be used, and Parsley really thinks they are tattered and shabby.

"Shoko, parsley—"

Hearing the voice, Xiangqin and Duan Xiang turned their heads to look together, and they were not surprised to see that it was Lao Tian.

In the past two days, Lao Tian always has time to run here, saying that he is here to remember the old place, but in fact, seeing that the place where he used to do business is being packaged more and more decently, his eyes are very hot.

There is envy in the eyes, and regret in the heart.

If he is willing to give up the capital and give the restaurant a new look, I am afraid that the business in his restaurant will not be so sluggish.

Lao Tian stood still beside Xiangqin, looking up at the busy work of several workers in the restaurant.

There was a pungent smell of paint in the hall, and the screeching sound of drilling machines that came to mind from time to time.

Now the half-pulled walls of the museum have been painted again, and you can't see the holes left by peeling on the wall, and the result is a neat and white place, like snow.

Lao Tian's eyes flashed, and he suddenly spoke, "Xiangqin, do you know your uncle's grandfather's phone number?" ”

Xiangqin glanced at him lightly, thinking that this Lao Tian was really greedy and not enough to swallow elephants, on the day they completed the formalities, Lao Tian's son had already returned to work in the foreign trade company, what else did this Lao Tian want to do?

"I don't know."

"Then you can help me inquire."

Xiangqin was unhappy in his heart, what he said was what, so what did he treat everyone as well?

Suppressing the resentment in her chest, Parsley patiently asked him, "What are you looking for my uncle and grandfather?" ”

"This is our lord's business...... Lao Tian was very dissatisfied with Xiangqin's attitude towards getting to the bottom of it, and turned his face to Xiangqin's annoyed face, and the rest of the words were stuck in his throat like fish bones, and he couldn't speak.

Xiangqin was indeed annoyed, and her tone was not good, "You also know that my uncle and grandfather are the deputy county magistrate, even if I know his contact information, do you think I will tell someone casually!" ”

Duan Xiang was also unpleasant, so he simply picked out the words to him, "Lao Tian, this is not before, you are not the emperor, we are not your minions, we have to do what you say to you." If there is something in your own family, please find a way to solve it yourself, don't always think about relying on others. We can help you once, but we can't help you for a lifetime. ”

Lao Tian's face was the same color as pig's blood, he stared, pouted tightly, and could hear the sound of him grinding his teeth.

"Give me back my shop!" Lao Tian gritted his teeth.

Xiangqin didn't laugh angrily, and stepped on Lao Tian's tail, "Okay, you go and bring the 9,000 yuan, and tell your son not to go to work in the foreign trade company again." ”

Seeing Lao Tian's expression relaxed, Parsley raised her eyebrows, and looked like a god, she knew that Lao Tian was reluctant!

When he eats the meat in his mouth, can he still spit it out?

Duan Xiang sighed with a snort, "These days, what kind of people are there!" ”

At this time, Hong Cheng shouted across the street, "Parsley, the meal is ready!" ”

Duan Xiang's face was happy, as if he was finally liberated, he beckoned to the workers who were working hard in the restaurant, "Several big brothers have worked hard, stop and rest, let's go to eat opposite!" ”

In addition to not wrapping up, the workers are covered with three meals a day, and it is their blessing to meet such a good boss, and they all volunteer to work with 120,000 points.

Hong Cheng waited for Xiangqin at the door of the hotel, and as soon as Xiangqin arrived, he stretched out his arm and hugged Xiangqin's neck, "That Lao Tian is here again?" ”

"I really don't know what he wants to do!" Xiangqin glanced back, and saw Lao Tian walking away with her hands behind her back, and the thin anger on her face gradually dissipated.

"Ignore him, let's eat."

They ate the same meals as the workers, but they didn't sit together.

While eating, Parsley thought of something, "Isn't it time to set the menu?" ”

Duan Xiang was not in a hurry at all, and was very optimistic, "Copy a copy of the menu of Hong Chengjia Hotel!" ”

Xiangqin thought it was funny, and Duan Xiang was really big-eyed and small-bellied.

"You go and look at the menu here, you can cook all the dishes on it?"

"If you don't know how to do it, you can learn!"

Hong Cheng smiled, "You are a small restaurant, not a big hotel like ours, not to mention that the environment is different, and the consumption level is different." If people want to eat high-grade things, they don't all have to go to those high-grade places, who wants to go to your small and broken places? "Although it hurts, Hong Cheng is telling the truth." You can just make some home-style stir-fry in your small restaurant, and how many high-end things do you want to make? ”

Parsley has words in her mouth, "sour and spicy shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, home-style tofu, stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts, ......"

Looking at the ingredients in front of her, Parsley had a way to cook the ingredients, but for a while, the recipes in her head were really limited.

"Otherwise, I'll take a look at another restaurant in the afternoon." Parsley came up with a solution, and that was to "borrow".

Hong Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Are you literate?" ”

Didn't he knowingly ask!

Parsley glanced at him, and then showed a flattering smile, "Isn't this you!" ”

Hong Cheng couldn't hide his smugness, and the corners of his upturned mouth could hang two oil bottles.

In the afternoon, Xiangqin and Hong Cheng did not stay in the hotel for dinner, but ran several streets and randomly found a small restaurant that looked similar in size and went down.

As soon as they sat down, Parsley and Hong Cheng took a menu.

The menu is all dish names, no pictures, not like the illustrated menu of Hongchengjia Hotel.

The waitress who greeted them was a young girl, probably seventeen or eighteen years old, who was supposed to be a relative of the owner.

"What do you want to eat?" The waiters were holding ballpoint pens and were ready to jot down the meals they ordered.

Hong Cheng chattered endlessly according to the names of the dishes on the menu, "Home-style tofu, tomato scrambled eggs, eggplant with meat foam, shredded pork with fish flavor, cowpea with meat foam, shredded pork with green pepper, shredded pork with mustard vegetables, and meat ...... back to the pot."

The name of the dish was written down in the small notebook, and the waiter felt that something was wrong, "How many of you?" ”

She touched the teacups and didn't have enough for them.

"Just the two of us." Parsley said.

The waiter's pupils were stained with a layer of anger, she didn't believe that these two people could eat so many dishes in one go!

She patiently asked again, "What do you want to eat?" ”

"Bring me everything I ordered." Hong Cheng was ready to splurge.

Seeing that Hong Cheng didn't seem to be joking, the waiter was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help reminding, "With so many dishes, can you two finish it?" ”

"If you can't finish eating, we'll pack it and take it away."

Xiangqin kicked Hong Cheng under the table, but smiled politely at the waiter: "He's joking with you, just bring us two bowls of soup and rice."

"Stir-fry the meat and shredded green pepper again." Hong Cheng added two more dishes.

Just now he said the name of the dish, mainly to read it to Parsley.

The waiter went to the back hall to pass the menu, and after a while, he heard the sound of a buzzing hair dryer in the back hall, which was obviously a fire in the back hall.

There was no one in front of him, so Hong Cheng still lowered his voice and asked Parsley, "When Lao Tian gave you the restaurant, didn't he leave the menu?" ”

"Yes." "My uncle said that the menu was basically vegetarian, and I couldn't even smell the slightest bit of meat. ”

Lao Tian always suffers from gains and losses, Hong Cheng doesn't like him very much, when he thinks of Lao Tian's eldest son, he faintly smells a vinegar smell on his nose. That field, looking at Sven, is actually a bird/beast.

"When you had dinner in the box that day, you didn't have anything to do with that lawyer Tian, right?"

"What can I do with him?" Xiangqin asked him in turn, seeing that his expression was awkward, and it was like a nail under his buttocks, he couldn't help but be at a loss, "What are you doing?" ”

"It's okay, I'm just afraid that he'll pester you like his father."

"He's going to work, how can he bother me." Parsley ignored Hong Cheng's twisted face and stuffed the menu into his hand, "Tell me what else is on it." ”

Hong Cheng felt awkward in his heart, but he was still quite happy. He always felt that the way the field looked at Parsley was wrong, but Xiangqin didn't take the field seriously.

The more people like parsley, this makes Hong Cheng feel uncomfortable, but it also makes him feel quite proud, at least it proves that he is still very discerning.

He sat next to her from parsley, holding the menu and patiently explaining to her: "There are home-cooked stir-fries, soups, pasta, and cold dishes on it......"

Parsley tilted her head to read the menu with him, even though she had an identical menu on hand. R1152
