Chapter Seventy-Eight: Clear Soup and Rice Noodles
Good people have good rewards, this sentence is really applicable where to put it.
Since opening the restaurant, Han Chuan has not been so comfortable and beautiful - clearing the accounts every night is simply bald!
After clearing the day's accounts, Han Chuan felt that his eyes were right, and his hair fell out a lot, when to clear the accounts and when to start falling out.
Han Chuan thought very fearlessly that when her hair fell out, she would be able to devote herself to the great food business without distraction, and she would never be disturbed by these three thousand troubles again.
Thanks a thousand thanks, Mama Zhong cut off this possibility.
Hanchuan's hair was saved.
The restaurant's clean ledger was also preserved.
Mama Zhong appeared behind the counter in meticulous dress every day, with clear speech, accurate bookkeeping, collecting money and looking back, very quick hands and feet, greeting guests, with just the right amount of respect and comfortable greetings in the palace.
Mama Zhong stroked her hair and stood behind the counter, not saying anything, just like the silent Dinghai Shenshen needle in the restaurant.
The same day as the day with the burden, sad and desperate, it is like two people.
Xiao Shuang'er said in awe, "Mama Zhong is really like an official. ”
Han Chuan laughed, "What kind of official?" ”
Xiao Shuang'er had never seen any big officials, so he held back for a long time, "Like the official of Jing Zhao Yinli who used to patrol the eastern suburbs market, wherever he went, the vendors everywhere hurriedly arched the meat and vegetables, and there were once vendors who handed a big bowl of milk to the official to quench his thirst." ”
Hehe.
Yo.
Hu Wenhe turned out to be so rowed!
Han Chuan knocked on Xiao Shuang'er's head, "Don't underestimate Mama Zhong, go forward, Mama Zhong is the head of a whole Huanyi Bureau in the court, and there are hundreds of palace people below - whoever sees it must respectfully call Mama." ”
Little Shuang'er said "wow".
Just after the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, there were fewer diners in the restaurant than in the previous two days, after noon, Mama Zhong was used to taking a nap, pulled out the door to hang out, Han Chuan asked Xiao Shuang'er to go to sleep in the back room, Xiao Shuang'er insisted on watching the door, the hall was so quiet that only the sound of snow falling could be heard.
The persimmon tree towers in the southeast corner, the branches and leaves sweep on the green tile eaves one by one, Han Chuan dragged the beauty couch to the middle of the courtyard, leaned against the old well, spread a thick cashmere blanket, covered with a warm and warm big quilt, squinted and listened to the sound of the "rustling" of leaves.
There is still a lack of a baking kiln in the yard, take bricks to build a small pond by the well, which raises live fish and small shrimp, and can also raise a cage of chickens next to the persimmon tree.
Han Chuan squinted, and his feet in leather boots clicked with the rhythm of the wind.
After a while, he squinted.
The wind chimes of the "Shixian" restaurant were swept above the heads of the visitors, and the little Shuang'er was lying on the wooden table in the hall and sleeping soundly, and suddenly woke up, and when he raised his eyes, he was a man with light eyebrows and thin lips tightly pursed.
Shuang'er raised her hand and rubbed her eyes in a daze, "Guest officer, our restaurant is open for lunch and evening, and now it's closed." ”
The person who came was Xu Yi.
Taking advantage of the rest of the country's eunuch, bring your entourage to see the mansion in Dongtangzi Hutong.
The mansion is not very large.
Three in and three out, there is a two-acre garden in the back, which is the mansion of Cai You, the former court's criminal minister, which has not been taken care of for a long time, overgrown with weeds, and even a few wild cats with bright hair and strong bodies make nests in the garden.
Xu Yi took a cursory look and roughly counted it in his heart.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will definitely send someone to renovate it, but the furniture and furnishings inside still need to cost some money.
Xu Yi took his entourage around the mansion a few times, and only after turning around did he realize that he had missed a little bit of lunch, so he walked through an alley and walked to the restaurant where Zhang Saburo brought him last time - "Shi Xian".
The little girl slept in a daze.
The whole courtyard can't wait to engrave the word "lazy" on the door of the brain.
Xu pursed his lips and looked at the dim and quiet hall, "Since it's closed, I'll come back the next day." ”
"What do you want to eat?" Han Chuan heard the sound in the courtyard, put on a bib and came out to greet the guests, most of the diners who had not had lunch at this hour had encountered something, Grandpa Bai taught her at the beginning, a meal she made casually, maybe it was a precious meal in someone else's life, she forced herself to fall asleep, and opened the door curtain, Han Chuan was stunned in place.
Xu Yi wanted to turn around and leave, but he was tripped by a crisp voice, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was the little lady.
Xu Yi unconsciously hooked his lips, "Can you still order food?" ”
Han Chuan can't wait to bite his tongue off!
What a precious meal!
What an important meal in someone else's life!
What's so important!
Eating delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, what does it matter about such a meal?
Han Chuan buried his head, "It's closed." But when he said that, Han Chuan exhaled deeply, and since he saw it as if he was looking at it and looking down, he would treat him as an ordinary diner! No one can deprive others of the right to order and eat.
"You can't order food, you can only say what is in the kitchen, and I will make you something to cushion your stomach."
Han Chuan raised his head and looked at Xu Yi with a clear gaze.
There was a little pain in my chest.
The eye sockets are also inexplicably sore.
Han Chuan blinked his eyes and forcibly hid the sourness.
Xu Yi nodded, put off his robe, and sat in the private room where he and Zhang Sanlang had sat before.
Han Chuan buried his head in the stove house, there were still some mushrooms, green vegetables, and a small bowl of crab roe lion's head that had not been used up, Han Chuan looked at the cold water tank in the corner soaked in the rice noodles made two days ago, thought about it, stir-fried the noodles in a hot pot, put soybean oil, dried seaweed, ginger juice, and a little green garlic into the bowl, hooked a spoonful of clear soup that had been hanging, and washed away the seaweed and other ingredients.
Blanch the rice noodles in boiling water and pour them into a bowl, and the mushrooms and vegetables will cook for a little longer.
The shallow oil flowers forced out by the hot oil float on top of the turquoise of the vegetables and the yellow-brown of the mushrooms, the rice noodles are milky white and translucent, and the last part of the bowl is sprinkled with a handful of chopped green onions, and the bowl is turned off the heat.
"Clear soup rice noodles." Han Chuan put the sea bowl in front of Xu Yi, "Before you eat, you have to explain the rules clearly." Our restaurant, whether it is a complete meal, four cold and four hot, eight hot dishes, one soup and one rice, or the bowl of clear soup rice noodles in front of you now, are charged according to the table, if you think it is not cost-effective, you will not be charged. ”
Han Chuan thought that Xu Yi would have a cold face.
After all, he doesn't like other people to pay money in front of him, and he doesn't like her calculating in front of him to save him money.
Who would have thought, but Xu Yi smiled, and nodded while laughing, "Okay, follow your rules." ”
Han Chuan glanced at it again and confirmed that the guy was laughing.
An emotion called "unhappy" inexplicably rose in my heart.
So to the proprietress of the restaurant, can he laugh?
Facing the side concubine in his mansion, he won't smile?
