The firecrackers exploded, flying red pieces, and Bai Wei stood in front of the restaurant, looking happy.

Eight years, since his father passed away, the Bai family restaurant has been closed, and it is not easy for him and his sister to redeem the former restaurant with enough silver, and have the opportunity to continue to pass on the family business.

"Everyone," Bai Wen arched his hand and said, "Baijia Restaurant is reopened, and I hope you will take care of it."

The gongs and drums are rising, the lions are dancing, and the people who come to cheer are pouring into the "Narcissus Pavilion".

"Uncle Lu" Bai Wen said enthusiastically, and personally led the person to the private room on the second floor.

"Bai Xian's nephew has finally come out" Lu Zhengcheng was pleased, took a sip of the tea handed by Bai Wei, and praised, "Yes, yes, the tea is overflowing, all of them are of high quality, I think back then, your father also arranged it like this." ”

Bai Sanshan is honest in business, attaches importance to quality, and has a good reputation in the Hangzhou business district, and Lu Zhengcheng, who is in line with his philosophy, naturally makes friends with him.

Bai Wei saw that Lu Zhengcheng's expression had changed, and he should have remembered the past, so he didn't bother, and stood aside and waited quietly.

"When you are older, you have to think about the past unconsciously, don't mind the virtuous nephew" Lu Zhengcheng smiled and said, "Today is a good day, let's not mention those sad things, my uncle can't be stingy when he comes to this trip, try to serve good wine and good food, let's get off to a good start." ”

"Thank you Uncle Lu" Bai Wen thanked, and was about to go downstairs to order Xiao Er to pass the dishes, but was stopped by Lu Zhengcheng.

"Don't worry, let them be busy with others first, it's okay for me to wait" Lu Zhengcheng beckoned people to his side, and asked hesitantly, "Will Narcissus come over today?" ”

"Sister will come over later in consideration of her identity" Bai Wen looked at ease, not paying attention to the change in Lu Zhengcheng's tone.

Lu Zhengcheng nodded, and didn't continue to ask, as if he felt guilty.

Seeing Lu Zhengcheng's appearance, Bai Wen sighed in his heart, but his face was still light, and he comforted, "Uncle, you were able to help my sister and brother keep the family house and restaurant, so as not to be robbed by the Xu father and son, you have done your best, even if you have a heart, you are powerless, don't worry about yourself, my sister has never complained about others, you should look away." ”

"Well, it's come to this, it's come to this" Lu Zhengcheng sighed, "It's just that I was weak back then, otherwise..."

"Uncle, the tea is cold, I'll go and change it for you"

"Go ahead, go ahead of your business, just call the guy, leave me alone"

"Yes"

Bai Wen exited the private room and stood on the second floor, holding on to the railing, watching the hustle and bustle downstairs.

The diners are noisy, the guys are busy, the sound of passing the dishes is constant, the aroma of wine and vegetables is mixed, and the door is ushered in, in and out, which is quite lively.

Bai Wen walked downstairs, instructed a young man to change tea and pour water for Lu Zhengcheng, walked around the banquet, thanked and dotted, and then turned around and went to the back kitchen.

"Brother Wang, it's hard work" Bai Wei said to Wang Fugui, who was on the plate, and picked up a handful of spinach and pinched the leaves to remove the roots.

"Owner, you are here" Wang Fugui said with a smile, wiping the surroundings of the plate with a cloth towel in his hand, and passing a plate of oily Dongpo meat to Xiao Er, who came to serve the dishes, then brushed the pot, changed the water, heated the pot, stir-fried again, and talked to Bai Wei while holding the shovel and spoon.

The hot oil is stinging, the green onion and ginger are stir-fried, and the green shredded vegetables are put into the pot for a trip, and they are fried a few times, and this is another plate.

"Brother Wang, you take a break, I'll fry a plate too" Bai Wen saw that his hands were itchy, just in time for someone to order a new dish yesterday, so he couldn't help but give it a try.

Wang Fugui happily handed over the spatula, made way for Bai Wei, wiped sweat, drank tea, and observed carefully.

"Owner, you give me more to fry, and a few of us can take the opportunity to try your craft" Wang Fugui asked, and a few people next to him also meant it.

"I'm stingy with only one portion, I'll make double portions of a few dishes later, everyone is just taking a break to eat lunch, and I'll be a handful of people to enjoy it," Bai Wei said with a smile.

He looked at the menu just now, and it was not a big dish that took a lot of effort, so it didn't hurt to fry a few more plates.

"That's good," Wang Fugui smiled honestly, grabbed the dishes and chopsticks and waited aside.

Bai Wei is good at cooking, but his stature is thin and his strength is insufficient, and he looks like a weak scholar at first glance, and he can't do it for a long time. He is aware of his own shortcomings, and he is not obsessed with cooking, but focuses on the study of dishes, which is rare when he actually does it.

"Boss, your craft is really not a cover"

"It's just, it's delicious"

"Brother Wang, less clipping, I haven't eaten yet"

••••••

After making up four dishes and one soup, Bai Wei did not continue, at this time he was already a little exhausted, and he was not able to hold the iron pot. returned the position to Wang Fugui, and he also served a meal, and ate with a few guys, a few people talked and laughed, and the atmosphere in the back kitchen was just right.

Xiao Liu, the head of the "East Family", ran over and said hurriedly, "Xu Shimei has come over for dinner, you go to the front to have a look, lest he make trouble for you." ”

Xujia Restaurant is opposite Baijia Restaurant, once when Bai Sanshan was alive, the two were opposites, and now Baijia Restaurant is reopened, and the enemies of the past will inevitably come to see it. Xiaoliu is the child of the neighbor of the Bai family, and he knows how the father and son of the Xu family once fell into the well when the Bai family was in danger, the so-called "weasel gives the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he is uneasy and kind", so as soon as he saw Xu Shimei enter the door, he came to find someone.

Bai Wen knew a lot about the character of Xu's father and son, and understood Xiaoliu's worries, so he immediately went with others.

They are open to do business, and if there are customers, they have to continue, and they can't do anything to drive people away, only to see the moves.

Xu Shimei is already a middle-aged person, her appearance has not changed much, except for her slightly bulging belly, the whole person is still in good spirits, she looks mature and stable, however, the obscene temperament between her eyebrows has not changed much. At this time, he sat at the table in the center of the lobby, crossed Erlang's legs, and pointed to Xiao Er, who was waiting to order food next to him, looking like he was a guest and rich was a master.

Bai Wen frowned slightly, suppressed the disgust in his heart, and took the initiative to step forward and greet him with a smile.

"Young Master Xu, you came to cheer in your busy schedule, Bai Wen and I feel very honored" Bai Wen greeted, neither humble nor arrogant, ordinary, without the slightest intention of pleasing the guests.

Xu Shimei pretended to shake the folding fan in her hand, with arrogance, shook the menu in her hand, and said lightly, "Boss Bai, you're too worried, I'm just stopping by to have a meal, see the new restaurant opened here, come in and taste the freshness." ”

"Then you eat, I won't bother you" Bai Wen was still smiling, and ordered Xiaoliu to give Xu Shimei a pot of wine, and he didn't go far, just stayed in the hall, and looked at Xu Shimei's reaction from time to time.

Xu Shimei didn't order many dishes, she didn't order four vegetarian dishes for half an hour, and she picked three or four when she was done, urging the dishes to be served again and again, calling the little guy to her side several times, ordering someone to wipe the table for a while, and ordering someone to change chairs for a while.

Bai Wen was afraid that the ordinary young man would not be able to stand Xu Shimei's troubles, so he left Xiaoliu here to deal with Xu Shimei alone.

The people around have heard of the grievances of the Bai and Xu families, and they are not surprised to see Xu Shimei's style, just to see the excitement when they are eating, and they are indispensable in their words to compare the two.

Let's talk about the appearance and demeanor first, Bai Wei is elegant and clear, courteous, gentle as the wind, which makes people comfortable, and there is a degree of advance and retreat in the words, although he is young, but he can see the style. Xu Shimei is middle-aged, pampered and pampered, he is a little greasy, and his mind is not right, his eyes are cloudy, this trip is designed to provoke trouble, just say that this Baijia restaurant is similar to his Xu family restaurant scene, how can it not be described by a small restaurant, the words are often mean, and the demeanor has lost a lot, which is not comparable.

Not to mention their ability, the two sisters and brothers of the Bai family have been dormant for eight years, and finally re-propped up the Bai family restaurant. On the other hand, Xu Shimei is still a young master at home who is taken care of by her father Xu Changtu, except for the constant romance, I have never heard of anything else, that is to say, such a big person is still an old moth, if there is no family business behind him, he may not know what it will look like, and this can't be compared.

People chatted after drinking, and their voices grew unconsciously, and these words inevitably slipped into Xu Shimei's ears.

Xu Shimei suddenly felt humiliated, but today he was ordered by his father to come to investigate the depths, and it was not easy to make other things, so he had to settle the account on Bai Wei's head, eat vegetables and wine with a stomach, and leave with a black face. As for how the food tasted, he couldn't eat it, not to mention that he couldn't eat it himself.

Xu Changtu's thoughts were in vain, it was better to go on a trip by himself.

"Boss, don't let him in next time, look at his face, as if we owe him" Xiao Liu complained while wiping the table.

The dishes on the table are empty, there is not a drop of the wine jug, and even the tea is drunk, what is not satisfied, who does he Xu Shimei show his face.

"Forget it, you have to bear some grievances in the door's business, and there may be someone more difficult to serve him in the future," Bai Wei soothed, and secretly stuffed Xiao Liu with some copper plates. Xu Shimei just called, Xiaoliu was not less angry, and it was normal for her to feel unhappy.

Xiao Liu won the reward, so he didn't say much, he worked hard to polish the table, and quickly went to the next table to serve.

Sending off the last table of guests is already a long time coming.

In the kitchen, Wang Fugui took the kitchen to prepare the dishes for the evening, and a few guys on the side brushed the dishes and dishes. In the hall, the old shopkeeper counted the money and settled the accounts, and the small sixth floor went up and down to clean and scrub.

Bai Wei looked inside and out, and was quite satisfied, chatted with Xu Zhengcheng for an afternoon, learned some business principles, and when he sent people away, it was already getting dark.

"Owner, there is someone outside, I have to order the dishes you cooked, so I can't say no, I'm sitting on the ground outside," Xiao Liu said with a bitter face.

Who are the people I met on this day, Xu Shimei forget it, it's a grudge from the past. But this stranger can't find fault, although there is no shortage of money, but it is dozens of dishes, how can their host's small body stand it.

"It's a guest, you can't fail to take such a big order" Bai Wen took a deep breath and got up and went downstairs.

Xiao Liu's grievances followed behind, and he felt that Bai Wen's whole person was shaking, and eighty percent would be paralyzed.
