Chapter Eighty-Three: Liuxian Building
Su Miao was stunned for a moment, looking at Tong Ran's face, there was no trace of jokes, he was serious.
"Don't." She replied.
It was too straightforward, without the slightest hesitation and excuses, and rejected it bluntly.
"So, how about joining Yipinlou?" Tong Ran was not surprised by her answer, and continued to ask with a smile.
"I refuse."
"Miss Su's craftsmanship is good, such a small restaurant can't let you play to your full strength, but my restaurant is different, I have a lot of financial resources to back you up, a spacious and complete kitchen, well-trained apprentices, and high-status guests, I can provide everything you want. If you are willing to come to Yipinlou, you don't have to worry about anything in the future, you only need to study your craft to make a menu, only such an environment can match your craft, isn't it? โ
If you are a businessman, you can really lobby.
"I don't want you to be my boss." Su Miao looked at him and said slowly.
Tong Ran laughed, with a little contempt and a little condemnation of her childishness:
"Is Miss Su planning to deny me the great opportunity I offered to the girl because of her misunderstanding of me, so as to erase her talent in cooking? In my opinion, the girl has inherited Ling Zun's craftsmanship very well, this soft and comfortable feeling is not eaten in other places, I am because Miss Su is a pity in such a small place, so I said this, if the girl is willing to come to Yipinlou, about Ling Zun's private recipe The girl wants it very much, I can give the recipe to the girl for free, as long as the girl is willing to join the first store. โ
"Honestly. I didn't really want that cookbook. Su Miao looked at him for a while and said lightly.
Tong Ran was slightly stunned, thinking that this was just a pretext for her hard mouth. Said with a smile:
"Miss Su doesn't have to lie to me because of me, I have no ill will towards the girl, I just want to help the girl." He spoke in a loud tone and was selfless.
Su Miao frowned and said seriously:
"This and that are two different things, I said I didn't want that cookbook because it wasn't with me right now, I never felt like I was similar to my father's style, although my father was more free. But there is still a feeling of being tense all the time as a self-taught elitist, and I am completely freewheeling, doing whatever I want. So my father's suit didn't suit me. When the chef cooks, he will put a qiฤ into the dish, and the resulting thing will seem to have a soul, with a unique taste that belongs only to that person, and his father's recipes are integrated into his heart and soul. The taste of the production is also unique. And I just like to make my own taste. โ
The people around were embarrassed again, although everyone spoke the same language, and she spoke authentic Yueliang Chinese, but she didn't understand a word of what she was talking about.
Tong Ran had never heard of such a statement, and was slightly stunned, looking at her serious face, stunned for a moment, and burst out laughing. Standing on the long table with his elbows and his hands loosely clasped. He stared at her with crooked eyebrows, and chuckled:
"What Miss Su said is really interesting."
Su Miao always felt that he was being ridiculed by him. But she didn't care, touched the back of her neck, and said:
"That's it, so I refuse, and you don't have to lobby me anymore. Besides, you and I are enemies in the final analysis, and since we are enemies, we should not talk face to face. Tong Gongzi will not come again next time, the atmosphere of this store is very incompatible with Tong Gongzi, and characters like Tong Gongzi are sitting here, which greatly affects the business of our store. โ
Tong Ran was unimpressed by her rejection, and laughed softly:
"I'm nothing, the one in the girl's kitchen, that's a terrible character, although not liked by anyone, but the bloodline thing......" He didn't finish, but there was a little contempt and indignation in his chuckle.
Su Miao was stunned for a moment, and came back to her senses to understand that he was referring to the aftertaste, Tong Ran really recognized the aftertaste, but before she could ask, Tong Fei had already put a piece of silver with white flowers on the table, Tong Ran stood up unhurriedly, turned around, and laughed lightly:
"I am very much looking forward to the day when Miss Su returns to Fengzhou."
Su Miao was shocked, and looked at his back in astonishment, why did he know that she had plans to return to Fengzhou, and still dismantle her so bluntly and rashly?
Don't you take her in your eyes?
This man ......
Be on one's high horse! High! ็ฎ็ฉบไธqiฤ! Wily!
Su Miao stared at him and walked away, these words flashed in her mind, and her big eyes sank.
Tong Ran was about to step over the threshold, and at this moment, a crisp and pleasant laugh like a yellow oriole nightingale suddenly came from behind him, which was a standard leather smile:
"Thank you Tong Gongzi for your patronage, if his Japanese store can be opened in Fengzhou, it will definitely improve the style at that time, and I hope that Tong Gongzi will come to give you more advice."
Tong Ran's footsteps stopped, his ruddy lips hooked up like a smile, and he said lightly without looking back: "Definitely." "Cross the threshold and walk away.
"Hey, why did you tell the plan so quickly, is that good, maybe you will be used by some means!" Su Xian leaned over and said disapprovingly.
"He has already guessed it, if I don't accept it, I will look petty, he obviously doesn't take me seriously, thinking that I can't make any big waves." Su Miao looked at the already empty doorway, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she snorted coldly, "Arrogant young master!" Saying that, he turned his head, looked at the closed kitchen, and then looked at Ning Le, who was eating pumpkin balls with bent eyebrows, the frequency of the eldest young master next to her seemed to be a little higher, could it be that she had a special physique?
Aftertaste stood in front of the small window and looked at her, her eyes flashing slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the end of the year has been a lot milder than usual, and it has not snowed for a long time.
When the Spring Festival is approaching, there is a holiday.
Su Miao slept until three o'clock in the morning, yawned and came out of the house to go to the bath room to wash, only to step out of the threshold and saw aftertaste wrapped in a blue large-sleeved cardigan cotton robe sitting on a rocking chair in the courtyard, like a waterfall of three thousand green silk soft and obediently draped on the body, black and shiny as if smeared with osmanthus oil. This person is reluctant to tie his hair up except when he is working. The thick long hair covered his forehead, and his complexion became fairer and fairer, and his face was as handsome as a star. He clasped his hands in his sleeves. Ren Xiaohu rolled and tossed on his knees, and when he heard the door knock, the man and the fox turned around together.
"Isn't it cold when you sit in the yard in the winter?" The corners of Su Miao's eyebrows twitched, every time she went out to wash her face, she could always see him sitting in the yard, and over time she still wondered if he had a special habit, and she liked to see that people didn't wash their faces.
The little fox jumped out of Aftertaste's arms. A smoke slipped onto Su Miao, Su Miao picked it up, and the little fox rubbed her chest happily with her fluffy head.
"It's too hot in the house." Aftertaste said lightly. Walked over, ignored the little fox's struggles, retrieved it from her arms, and asked her, "Have you eaten?" โ
"What to eat?"
"I made chicken noodle soup. Simmer on the stove. Do you want to eat it? โ
"I want to eat!" Su Miao immediately replied that it was a beautiful thing to be able to eat a hot and delicious breakfast in the groggy morning after a month of continuous work in the kitchen.
Aftertaste turned around and went into the kitchen, Su Miao went to wash her face and came back, looked around the rooms, and asked suspiciously:
"Why is there no one? All out of the house? โ
"Grandma and aunt went to the next street, whose little grandson washed three today. The eldest sister went to visit the door, and Brother Yan's classmates celebrated their birthdays, and he went to give gifts. Sister Chan said that she went out if she had something. Chunniang and her uncle went out early in the morning, and the eldest mother said that today was the death day of their relatives. I want to go to the riverside to worship. Aftertaste stood in front of the stove and said, and put a bowl of fragrant and hot shredded chicken noodle soup in front of her.
"Huh? It's just the two of us? I still want to go out and do some shopping today. Su Miao flattened her mouth and said.
"You're just thinking about it." Huiwei sat opposite her and handed her a piece of paper, "The list that the eldest mother gave you wants you to buy New Year's goods." โ
Su Miao took it lazily, wrinkled her nose, and complained: "How can I take it alone after buying so much!" โ
Looking at her without saying a word, Su Miao turned her head and looked at him, for a long time, she sighed and said helplessly:
"Why do I have to be with you even on my vacation?"
Aftertaste turned his head and said coldly: "You are talking too much." โ
"The two of us are together from morning to night every day, no matter how beautiful your face is, I still have aesthetic fatigue."
"I didn't say I was bored with your face when it wasn't 'beautiful' at all, and you were embarrassed to dislike me."
"You're so vicious." Su Miao opened her eyes and said.
"Each other, each other." Aftertaste said with a face.
A small wind swirled between the two of them.
Su Miao rested her chin on the table, lazily sucked the noodles, and pouted: "It's a rare holiday, and I want my family to go shopping to buy New Year's goods!" โ
"Are you an unweaned child, and you want to do everything as a family." Aftertaste glanced at her and frowned, "Sit up and eat well, that's too unruly!" โ
"Are you my daddy?" The corners of Su Miao's eyebrows twitched, and she said speechlessly, but sat up obediently.
Aftertaste rubbed the little fox's head, and after a while, he looked at her and said, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to try the dishes of Liuxian Tower?" โ
"Hmm." Liuxian Lou is docked in Changle Port after a sailboat refurbished into a restaurant, it is said that the ship is an abandoned warship bought from the imperial court, docked in the most pleasant place in Changle Town, attracting many dignitaries and nobles, followed his father to rub Ning Le came back and said that the dishes made there are super delicious, Su Miao has always wanted to go, but unfortunately there is no spare money to waste, and she also recently learned that Liuxian Lou is actually Tong Ran's capital...... No wonder that man looked down on her, it turned out that his hand had already reached out to Changle Town, but she didn't know it, he made high-end dishes, she opened a small restaurant, he naturally looked down on her, and it made people angry when he thought about it!
"Go buy New Year's goods first, and then I'll invite you to Liuxian Tower." Aftertaste said to her.
"Huh? How can you be rich? Su Miao was stunned and asked.
"Didn't you ask me to report my safety to the family before, and then the housekeeper sent all my things over." He didn't want to think back to the look on the fat butler's face when he learned that he had to live here.
"How did I not know? Send your things over, is your father going to kick you out? Su Miao was slightly stunned and hurriedly asked.
Because the explanation was too troublesome, I didn't bother to answer: "I didn't think you were too keen before, I thought you were talking casually, but the person from the Tong family has been here, and Liuxian Tower is his, you should really want to go and explore the details, I'll take you there." โ
"But, it's better for you to save some money for retirement, right?" After so long, not only did he not ease up but was driven out, what did he do wrong?
"You don't have to worry about that. To go, or not to go? Aftertaste asked flatly.
โโฆโฆ Go! Su Miao finally couldn't resist the temptation of someone to treat her, and since he insisted, she gritted her teeth and nodded in agreement.
After eating, Su Miao and Huiwei changed their clothes to go out, because they were going to a high-end restaurant, Su Miao also specially borrowed Su Xian's fat powder to put on a light makeup, and ordered the little fox who twisted his butt and shook his big tail to follow him to watch the house, locked the door and went to the street, first according to the list given by Hu Shi to buy New Year's goods, in the afternoon, Su Miao followed a stack of New Year's goods to the front of Liuxian Building.
It is also a port, but here is exclusive to Liuxian Building, a wooden trestle bridge connects the hull and the embankment, it is this trestle bridge that separates people and people invisibly, ordinary people can only stand on the embankment and look at it with excited eyes, but dare not approach.
From a modern point of view, this Liuxian Tower is at least a four-star hotel.
Su Miao is very calm, she often worked in five-star hotels in her previous life, and she is used to all kinds of luxury. In the aftertaste, he is very calm about everything, Su Miao often thinks that even if he meets a ghost in the middle of the night, he can go around calmly and continue to do what he wants.
The two came to the door of Liuxian Tower along the trestle, and a guy greeted them enthusiastically and received the position with good training. Although the two people who came were only dressed ordinary, ordinary people did not have the courage to come to Liuxian Tower, and there were many kinds of rich people.
The restaurant is carved and painted, beautifully decorated, fragrant, and warm like spring.
Su Miao picked a window seat and sat down, Liuxian Lou has a menu, the menu is made of paper-thin bamboo chips, there are not many dishes, but each one is cooked with expensive ingredients and complex processes.
Huiwei sat across from her without saying a word, letting her order her own food, absentmindedly sipping the Pu'er tea that the guy had given him earlier, as if he was not interested in Liuxian Lou just to accompany her.
"Shall I order it casually?" Su Miao showed him the menu, pointed to the amazing amount on it, and asked.
Aftertaste supported his cheek with one hand and nodded nonchalantly: "Order." โ
Su Miao was still not at ease, cautiously ordered a few signature dishes that were not too expensive, and was a little impatient with her trembling, pulled the menu in her hand, and said lightly to the buddy:
"Fresh pepper rabbit, boiled shrimp, stewed duck with cordyceps, roasted river eel in a deboned pot, soft-shelled turtle stewed with ham, and bird's nest."
The guy responded with a smile on his face.
Su Miao's jaw is about to drop: they won't be left to wash the dishes, right?
"The Seven Star Gang killed the official of the third grade, this time the emperor was finally furious, and sent Rui Wang Ye to suppress the bandits, I heard that he will be in Changle Town soon!" Someone at the next table suddenly whispered. (To be continued......)
