Chapter 52: The Great Butler of the Soup Shop
"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned, but the Tang Dynasty soldiers are there, and Hu Ma is not taught to cross Yin Mountain."
"On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work."
"This is, this is a poem made by Hou Ye?" Ma Zhou's mouth opened wide in shock.
"This random poem is a masterpiece, even if it is a golden champion, it is rare to make this poem." Ma Zhou picked up the wine bowl and drank it in one go.
"Sir, please bow down to the students." Tao Ran accepted Ma Zhou's apprenticeship with peace of mind.
In this way, he will be accepted as a student. The two people who were still brothers and sisters in the last second became a teacher-student relationship in the next second.
I have to sigh that the world is changing too fast!
"Teacher, the student will go to General Chang's Mansion to say goodbye to General Chang, pack up your luggage, and report to Hou Ye's Mansion tomorrow morning!"
"You should come here tomorrow morning, it just so happens that the shop has just opened, you can help the teacher take care of it for a few days."
"Teacher, the student has an eight-year-old girl who needs to be brought with them. I don't know if it's possible? ”
"It's good to bring it, just study with the big girls as a companion. Du Juan, bring a plate of hot buns that have just come out of the cage to Ma Gongzi. ”
Half an hour later, Ma Zhou hiccuped and said goodbye to Tao Ran at the door.
There is still a long, long queue on Suzaku Avenue for this matter.
The eyebrows who received the buns left with a smile, and the people in the queue were eager to wear them one by one.
Ma Zhou walked on Suzaku Avenue and felt that the sunshine was so beautiful and life was so brilliant for the first time! The long-lost energy and smile spread across his face.
His little sister Ma Fang can also read, which Ma Zhou never dreamed of before.
Such a talented teacher filled him with infinite reverie for the future!
In the morning, Tao Xiaosheng's steamed buns were fully distributed and sent out 5,000 soup dumplings.
When Chu Liang and the housekeeper Hong Xijun looked helplessly at the people who were still queuing and said, "Today is over, come back tomorrow".
A sigh of loss from the crowd!
~~~~
At this moment, many families in Chang'an City have a few more white noodles and buns on their tables.
The old man looked strange, and the child drooled.
The main thing is that it tastes so fragrant that you can smell the rich aroma of meat through the bun skin.
"Grandma, you eat first...", a little girl said to her grandmother very filtily.
"Girl, grandma is old and can't bite anymore, you and your brother can eat......"
"Grandma, it's not delicious, Wen'er won't eat it." The little girl took a bite and said.
Grandma took the bun handed over by Wen'er and took a bite in her mouth.
A smell of meat that has never been felt before stretches the whole mouth.
A line of candle tears slipped down from the old man's eyes.
What a good girl, in order to let grandma eat a bite of buns, and carry out kind deception!
"Good boy, grandma didn't feel sorry for you in vain......" said the old man in a trembling voice.
"Grandma, Wen'er will ask if the steamed bun shop wants an apprentice tomorrow. Wen'er is going to be an apprentice in the shop, okay? ”
"Child, you are still so young, grandma is useless, I can't take care of you......" said as grandma's tears fell again.
"Grandma doesn't cry, Wen'er has grown up, Wen'er will be filial to grandma and take care of her younger brother." The little girl wiped her grandmother's tears with her little hands and said strongly.
A little girl in front of Tao Xiaosheng's bun shop stood quietly at the door, looking so lonely and weak under the moonlight......
There are already a lot of people queuing up to receive free buns.
"Girl, don't cut in line?" Someone reminded dissatisfiedly.
"I'm not cutting in line, I'm apprentice." The little girl replied earnestly.
The crowd burst into laughter! "Girl doll, you're afraid you didn't wake up, right? This is an exclusive secret recipe, how can it be passed on to others? ”
Everyone was talking about it.
The little girl was teary-eyed when she was laughed at by the big guy, and she cried out with a "wow......
Then the little girl knelt down against the doorway.
Ma Zhou led his sister Ma Fang to the door of Tao Xiaosheng's bun shop with simple luggage.
Just saw this scene, my sister Ma Fang saw the little girl crying in pain, and her little hand held her brother's hand tightly. I looked up and saw my brother and said, "Why is the little sister crying?" ”
Tao Ran was woken up by everyone's laughter and the little girl's crying!
Tao Ran opened the door, and a weak and petite little girl knelt at the door......
His eyes were sour, and he knew that he was a poor child again.
He helped the girl up with both hands, "Little girl, get up quickly, it's cold at night, it's not good for your little body to be sick." ”
"Big brother, I'm here to apprentice, I beg the big brother to tell the shopkeeper to give Wen'er's family a way to live, Wen'er will definitely work hard, Wen'er doesn't need to be paid, just ask the shopkeeper to give him food......"
Looking at the little girl's crying face, Tao Ran's heart was like a knife.
"You don't need to tell the shopkeeper, my brother promised you, come and rest for a while, it's still early in the morning." Tao Ran wiped the tears on her face for the little girl and said.
"Big brother, I can't implicate you, I'm afraid that you will be scolded by the shopkeeper like this..."Wen'er said sensibly.
"Haha, what a sensible little girl, the big brother in front of you, is the big shopkeeper here, and my Ma Zhou brothers and sisters also came to join him."
Ma Zhou took his sister Ma Fang's hand and walked over together.
Ma Fang took out a small handkerchief, "Sister doesn't cry......"
"Sir, Ma Zhou and his sister have come to disturb Mr."
"Come, please come in." Tao Ran took Wen'er's hand and welcomed the Ma Zhou brothers and sisters into the shop.
"Wen'er and Ma Fang will go to the room on the second floor to rest for a while, there are still a few empty rooms above." Tao Ran took the two girls to arrange the room for the two.
The two girls who like it cheered.
"Shhhh
"My sisters are still sleeping, be quiet."
"Mm-hmm" The two girls nodded vigorously, and happy smiles filled their faces.
Tao Ran quietly walked downstairs, "Sir, what kind of work has been arranged for the students?" ”
Ma Zhou asked solemnly.
"There is a lack of a steward in the shop, you will be responsible for the overall management of the shop in the future, and you will be a big housekeeper for the time being!"
"Thank you for your support, students should do their best to do things for Mr." Ma Zhou hurriedly stood up and saluted.
I never thought that on the first day I came, Tao Ran would give me the position of big housekeeper!
Butlers weren't just a one-man job, in those days.
Who's housekeeper is a descendant who knows his roots. The rights of the housekeeper are also quite large, including the size of the house, daily expenses, and life procurement are all within the scope of the housekeeper's rights.
Therefore, every housekeeper is the most trusted person in the main family!
