When Zhang Wanli was stupidly falling into his own fantasy, Qin Baichuan and Du Bo were talking and laughing and walking towards the back kitchen, Zhang Wanli hurriedly reacted, and smiled all the way: "Brother Qin, Brother Du, please inside-" Zhang Wanli led the way, and when he entered the back kitchen, he was about to say it loudly, Qin Baichuan waved his hand and didn't let him speak.

Pushing open the wooden door of the back kitchen, Qin Baichuan first smelled the smell of meat, and looked at it, this back kitchen was only about ten square meters, and on the left hand side was a row of stoves, three large pots of mutton soup and braised meat, and a few yellowed white Ji buns were thrown in the last mouthful. On the right-hand side, there are neatly placed cutting boards, porcelain bowls, and cleaned vegetables, which is where snacks are processed.

Next to the board, a woman with thin shoulders, hair coiled up casually, and a scarf was talking to a person who looked like a chef, only to hear the woman say: "Master Gu, the guests generally report that our meat sandwich buns are dry in the mouth, and the varieties we operate are single, is there a solution?" ”

Master Gu was a man of about thirty, and when he heard this, he grinned and said: "Shopkeeper Xu, I have never heard of this meat sandwich bun, I can only draw a gourd according to your description, and the taste is difficult to grasp." As for the single menu of the business, in my opinion, it is better to refer to other wine restaurants and add some steaming, stir-frying, cooking and fried dishes. ”

The woman shook her head vigorously: "This meat sandwich bun and mutton steamed bun are said by Brother Qin himself, if I change to other dishes, wouldn't it go against my original intention of opening Xun Qin Ji?" If Brother Qin comes back and sees it, I'm afraid he will be unhappy. ”

"It doesn't matter what kind of dishes you cook when you open a restaurant, as long as you can make money." When Master Gu didn't know how to answer, Qin Baichuan's voice sounded in the back kitchen: "What's even more rare is that Xiu'er can go out of the house and support the façade alone, I can only praise it, how can I be unhappy?" ”

Obviously, she saw that the woman was stiff, and when she turned around, there were fine beads of sweat on her little face without powder, and her bright red mouth was closed, and she saw clearly that Qin Baichuan was in front of her, and the woman's face flashed with ecstasy, and she couldn't care about Master Gu anymore, and ran over in surprise: "Big brother-"

The back kitchen was not very big, Xu Xiu rushed to Qin Baichuan in the blink of an eye, wanting to plunge into Qin Baichuan's arms, but the remaining reason stopped her movements. stared at Qin Baichuan blankly, with bean-sized tears in his eyes, and choked up as soon as he opened his mouth: "Big brother...... You ......"

After a few months of neglect, plus more than a month of separation, seeing that she had lost a lot of weight, Qin Baichuan was a little distressed, he was indeed too cruel to this Nizi: "Xiu'er, are you blaming the eldest brother in your heart for not coming to see you?" ”

Xu Xiu shook his head vigorously, his stupid gaze fell on Qin Baichuan's face, and he was reluctant to leave even for a moment: "What did the eldest brother say?" I know that the eldest brother is a person who does big things, and he is usually very busy, Xiu'er is useless and can't help, let alone share his worries for the eldest brother, where can he dare to blame? ”

"You girl, you'll pick something nice." Qin Baichuan ignored the gazes of others, reached out and touched Xu Xiu's head, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, the meat sandwich bun has encountered difficulties?" ”

"Big brother, Xiu'er can solve these small problems." Xu Xiu's eyebrows flashed with determination.

Qin Baichuan smiled, walked to the cauldron full of white Ji buns, and was about to reach out and take out two, but saw a few hard steamed buns in the basin on the dining table next to him, next to the steamed buns were a few pots of green vegetables without oil and water, and a few pairs of chopsticks were scattered on the table.

Qin Baichuan's eyes suddenly shrank, and he frowned: "Xiu'er, you guys eat these?" ”

"Ahh Xu Xiu seemed to have been glimpsed into the secret, and hurriedly ran to the table, blocking the eldest brother's gaze with his body: "No, eldest brother, it's not this...... These...... These ...... "Xu Xiu would not have lied, but he couldn't say anything after a few words, and he didn't dare to look at his eldest brother's gaze when he lowered his head.

"Zhang Wanli!" In fact, no one needs to say more, Qin Baichuan also understands a little.

"Ah, Brother Qin......" Qin Baichuan's voice was angry, Zhang Wanli trembled with fright, peeked at Xu Xiu and didn't dare to say more.

"I have admired Mr. Qin's name for a long time, I will say it." Master Gu in the kitchen looked ashamed, hugged his fists and said: "These white Ji buns are the waste products we made a few days ago, and they can't be taken out to the guests in such a good condition anyway, and it's a pity to throw them away, so they serve as our dry food." ”

And sure enough, it was!

Qin Baichuan suddenly felt a touch of sadness in his heart, Xu Xiu's approach is not much different from those modern vendors, the vegetable seller will prune and cut the rotten vegetables that can't be sold, and the fruit seller will take the rotten fruit home, and sell the good ones to the guests to earn money, and those that have deteriorated will go into their stomachs.

Qin Baichuan picked up a white Ji bun, and it took a lot of effort to bite a small bite, and when he put it in his mouth and chewed it, it was like wood slag. With a gloomy face, he threw Bai Jibao back into the basin: "Xiu'er, can you eat this kind of thing?" ”

"Big brother ......" Qin Baichuan was rarely angry in front of him, where did Xu Xiu dare to say more.

"Mr. Qin, Lao Gu is talkative." Qin Baichuan's voice was very loud, Xu Xiu was stunned, and Master Gu smiled bitterly: "The shopkeeper Xiu'er is kind by nature, and when he invited me to come, he told me everything." Miss Xiu'er planned to learn storytelling with her husband a few days ago, which can be regarded as a daughter inheriting her father's business. ”

Master Gu mentioned this stubble Qin Baichuan and remembered that Xu Xiu and Wang Tianyue were indeed learning storytelling together at the beginning, why did they come out to make up this search for Qin Ji again?

"The shopkeeper of Xiu'er also told me that when I studied with Mr. and Mr. Xu, I didn't want to disappoint you, so as not to be said to be eating rice at home." Master Gu sighed.

"Master Gu, you ......" Xu Xiu was anxious.

"Shopkeeper Xiu'er, your hard work has been in your eyes these days, and it is just that you can't see Mr. Qin, since you have seen it, there is no reason to hide it." Master Gu shook his head: "The storytelling line should rely on lip and tooth kung fu, and the shopkeeper of Xiu'er is obviously not that material." It happened that the two boatmen of this small ferry port returned to their hometown, and the shopkeeper Xiu'er persuaded Mr. Xu to take this place down. ”

"Lao Gu is not afraid of offending people, but Daddy Xu is really not authentic." Master Gu said with annoyance: "We have all heard that under Mr. Qin's advice, now Father Xu has an income of at least one or two hundred taels of silver per month, and his daughter wants to do something, so he supports it, but the shopkeeper of Xiu'er has asked Father Xu for it again and again, and finally took out three hundred taels of silver!" After taking this ferry, I went to more than 200 taels, repaired the houses, hired labor, and purchased materials, where did I not need money? The shopkeeper of Xiu'er refused to say, but he was afraid that the silver would already be stretched thin, right? ”

"Brother Qin, that's indeed the case...... someone vomited bitterness in front, and Zhang Wanli also had the courage to say: "At the beginning of Xun Qin Ji, including Master Gu and me, there were seven people in total, but the other five people all left when they knew about these situations...... If it weren't for the Miss Meng from Splendid Villa who often came to help, even if there were three heads and six arms, she wouldn't be able to keep busy when there were many people. ”

The more Qin Baichuan listened, the more ugly his face became, Du Bobian listened to the ins and outs, and said with emotion: "Brother Qin, the sister of the Xu family is diligent and thrifty, smart and diligent, you don't have to blame her anymore." ”

"Where do I blame Xiu'er, but hate myself." After a long time, Qin Baichuan came back to his senses, thinking that he was spending all day drinking outside, but Xiu'er was hiding in the back kitchen to eat this kind of food that pigs disliked, Qin Baichuan hated to despise himself fiercely: "Qin thinks he can play this world, but he can die outside and be snubbed and despised, not to mention, he has to burden his sister to abuse herself so badly!" Hate! ”

Qin Baichuan raised his hand to overturn the rice bowl, and the hard white Ji bun fell to the ground, tumbling endlessly.

"Big brother, Xiu'er is wrong, don't ...... like this" Xu Xiu had a little teardrop on her face, and she blamed herself and rejoiced in her heart, blaming herself for accidentally causing her eldest brother to be in a bad mood, and happy that her eldest brother was angry but only because she failed to take care of herself, which is enough to prove that she has a pivotal position in the eldest brother's heart.

"Big brother will spend all the money he earns outside, and you are not allowed to treat yourself badly in the future, you know?" Qin Baichuan restrained his tone and persuaded in a low voice.

"Hmm...... Got it. Xu Xiu whispered sweetly.

"Wanli, clean up all these things for me, then close the door, go to the drunken house to buy good wine and food, I thank you and Master Gu for Xiu'er." Qin Baichuan touched his body, fortunately, he still had a few hundred taels of silver tickets in his hand, he didn't look at it, and slapped it directly on the table.

"Okay, Brother Qin, I'll do it!" Zhang Wanli's youthful temperament, where have he seen so many silver tickets, especially Qin Baichuan's momentum of spending money like earth, which made the young man's eyes shine. Carefully picked up a silver ticket and hurried out.

"Xiu'er, Daddy Xu is scared, and it is indeed difficult to get some silver out of his hand. But don't be afraid, Daddy Xu doesn't support you, but Big Brother supports you. Qin Baichuan stuffed all the remaining silver tickets into Xiu'er's hand: "If you want to do it, make it big, even if you use these silvers, if you don't ...... enough"

Qin Baichuan was halfway through his words, and he was suddenly stunned.

Since his beginning, Qin Baichuan thinks that he has earned a lot of silver, usually eats Quxi, lives in Quxi, and pits others a little from time to time, and he seems to have never lacked silver. But when he was about to enlarge his words, he suddenly remembered that part of his silver was all handed over to Father Xu to invest in Wangjiang Tower; The rest of the money was earned for Splendid Villa, and Qu Xi had not given it to him at all so far - that is to say, the hundreds of taels of silver tickets auctioned out were all of his Qin Baichuan's belongings!

I'm the next Olympics!

Fortunately, Xiu'er didn't see Qin Baichuan's embarrassment, and held the silver ticket to her chest: "Big brother, you don't need to say much, Xiu'er knows." ”

"Forget it, how to find Qin Ji, I have my own way." Qin Baichuan avoided this topic in annoyance: "Go and get a basin of water for the eldest brother to wash his hands, Master Gu, please prepare a little flour, and I will make you a few meat buns to taste." ”

"Brother Qin wants to cook himself?" Master Gu was a little stunned, the famous Mr. Qin wants to make meat buns? Not to mention Master Gu, even Du Bo was a little surprised.

My wife teased me and said, no one looks at it, you are so passionate and dry...... I was instantly emotionally lost. Ya, there are book friends who have seen this chapter and left a message "Brother (or sister) is waiting for more", make up ten messages, and make another appointment tomorrow! If not...... Forget it, Tease than my wife wins.
