"Hachimatsu, let's go."

"Seventh brother, here." Obviously, it was Chi Lingmiao who carried Meng Mingyi in, but now Qi Basong has brought people out again.

"Bastard, put people down, what kind of mess." Chi Lingmiao chased after him, glared at Qi Basong, and then hugged Meng Mingyi back.

"Don't worry, Qizhu and Jiuli, the eldest aunt will be optimistic, by the way, let Shixiang stop working at noon, and let the three of them come to the house for lunch." Chi Lingmiao explained, and then urged Qi Jiuli and the three of them to leave quickly.

Meng Mingyi looked at Qi Jiuli with a blank eye, Qi Jiuli smiled and waved his hand, and promised, "I'll pick you up in the evening." ”

Meng Mingyi smiled when he heard this, and nodded.

"Jiuli, why are you alone?" As soon as Qi Jiuli entered the Qiuwei restaurant, he saw himself looking behind him, "What about Mingyi?" ”

"At home." Qi Jiuli replied.

"Eh, why don't you bring it, I made him a sticky bean bun today." Wang Heitu felt a little lost.

"Then I'll go back in the evening and bring the sticky bean buns back, I'll say that his black soil brother specially made it for him." Qi Jiuli said with a smile.

"That's done." Wang Heitu replied, "But bring it back to Re Re, don't eat it and spoil your stomach." ”

Leaving a word, Wang Heitu went back to the back kitchen, and the people around him also dispersed, Qi Jiuli was a little surprised, covered his heart and said sadly, "Xiaoyi stayed for a long time yesterday, and now his status in Qiuwei Restaurant has surpassed me, and I feel unfair." ”

"Come on." Su Dazhuang sighed, "It's embarrassing to eat with the child when you're so old." ”

"Hahaha-"

The atmosphere of the restaurant in autumn early in the morning is extraordinarily harmonious, except for Gu Youzhi, his whole person is gloomy, even more than before, but he used to integrate into the topic, but today it seems that the whole person is a little lost and depressed, and he has no response when others take care of him.

However, Gu Youzhi is Gu Lao's nephew, and people who have been in the autumn restaurant for a long time always remember the old feelings and take more care of Gu Youzhi.

The people here do not include Qi Jiuli, since Wang Heitu was not close to Gu Youzhi, Qi Jiuli obviously felt that this person had a grudge against him, although he didn't show anything, but the eyes that looked at him were always disliked, but she didn't care about it.

Until Qi Jiuli saw Gu Youzhi and Qin Ziming walking together.

It's also a coincidence that the two of them are walking together, and Qi Jiuli is going to go to the toilet.

The most embarrassing thing about working in Qiuwei Restaurant is to go to the toilet, people have three urgency, Qi Jiuli always has to take time to solve it every day, but for convenience, Qi Jiuli is going to the house he bought in the town, no one lives, how can a person be comfortable, and there is only one thatched toilet in Qiuwei Restaurant, there are many people, and it is somewhat too busy, Qi Jiuli goes outside to make it convenient for others.

Today, too, Qi Jiuli took the time to go to the house in the morning, and he came out comfortably, and then he saw his fourth cousin-in-law, talking to people at the mouth of the alley, Qi Jiuli instinctively took a step back and covered his figure.

Qin Ziming was facing Qi Jiuli's direction, and the other person was facing back, but this back was very familiar, but Qi Jiuli didn't think about it for a while, and the two didn't talk for long, when they saw that the person with his back to himself handed Qin Ziming an oiled paper envelope, and Qin Ziming handed him a small silver horn, and then the two quickly separated and left.

After the two left, Qi Jiuli walked out slowly, and when he walked to the mouth of the alley and looked at the street on both sides, he couldn't see people clearly, and he walked really fast.

If it was in modern times, she was very suspicious that she was doing something bad, but at this time, Qi Jiuli really didn't understand what the people here had just bought and sold.

When he returned to Qiuwei Restaurant, Qi Jiuli saw the back as soon as he entered the door, and the back of his waist was obviously tied by a rope, which was also the reason why Qi Jiuli could identify it for the first time, and when the person turned around, it was Gu Youzhi.

Qi Jiuli's expression suddenly became solemn, how could this person have anything to do with Qin Ziming, if this is the case, then the contents of the oil paper envelope are likely to be......

Qi Jiuli took advantage of Gu Youzhi's presence in the front hall and went to the back kitchen by himself.

"Jiuli, let's try the new dishes I made later." Jiang Houchun was wielding a spatula, and the whole kitchen was filled with aroma, with the characteristic spice smell of autumn restaurants.

Now the guys in the kitchen are mainly busy chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients, Qi Jiuli took a look, and his last eyes fell on the place where the seasonings were placed, and there was only one kind of spice outside, that is, the pretzel for making potato cakes, and all kinds of spices ground into powder were mixed together, if it weren't for Qi Jiuli knowing what to mix it with, she wouldn't be able to tell what it was made of.

But if it is discovered, then the various spices are not a secret, Qi Jiuli is not sure how many times Gu Youzhi has done this, and how many people he has sold it to.

But to be honest, he didn't see anything in the oil paper envelope with his own eyes, and Qi Jiuli couldn't be sure that it was spices inside.

Qi Jiuli looked at the jar full of salt and pepper, walked up to Jiang Houchun and asked, "Uncle Jiang, has there been a shortage of salt and pepper recently?" ”

"Huh?" Qi Jiuli's inexplicable words, Jiang Houchun didn't react a little.

"Is the use of salt and pepper less than the amount used alone?" Qi Jiuli asked in a low voice.

Jiang Houchun understood at once, this is a suspicion that someone in the kitchen is stealing the seasoning, this is a big deal, Gu Youzhi is responsible for the seasoning every day, but the pepper and salt are made by himself, and he knows the amount of money he uses best, as long as there is no less, the rest of the seasoning is not a problem.

"What's missing?" Jiang Houchun asked, "I personally pour the salt and pepper every day, and I know how much I use, and there is no shortage of salt and pepper." ”

Qi Jiuli was a little surprised, there was no shortage of salt and pepper? Wasn't that the one before? "Isn't it powdered?"

Jiang Houchun smiled when he heard this, "You don't have to worry about this, in order to ensure that it is not leaked, I bought all the spices, and I brought them back after grinding." ”

Qi Jiuli was a little confused, could it be that she misunderstood someone.

"Jiuli, Shopkeeper Yan asked you to go upstairs, and he was waiting for you in the study." Guizi came to the backyard to call someone, and Qi Jiuli went when he heard the words.

When he opened the door, he found that in addition to Yan Chengtao, Gu Youzhi was also inside.

"Jiuli, you're here, Youzhi reacted to one thing, I want to hear your opinion." Yan Chengtao asked Qi Jiuli to sit down, and then glanced at Gu You.

"In the past few days, a lot of people have come to me, the purpose is very clear, they want me to bring the seasoning of the autumn restaurant to them, not too much, I want to make a pretzel potato cake, I didn't agree, and then the bid is getting higher and higher day by day." Gu Youzhi said in a low voice, "They knew that I was in charge of the seasoning in the back kitchen of the Autumn Flavor Restaurant, and they all found me." ”
