58 cooks

After Xiao Nan and Xiao Fang discussed the "conspiracy", about two hours later, someone reported that the military master of the Marshal's Mansion was here again.

There were not as many people as there was last time, only an adjutant came, with his own secretary. This adjutant is a person next to Major General Dong, surnamed Li, who looks crepe, wears gold-wire glasses, and should be from a literati background.

Xiao Nan pushed a wheelchair by Ah Cheng and personally went to the courtyard to greet him, very enthusiastic, but Adjutant Li said that he still had military affairs, but he was only here to carry out tasks, so it was inconvenient to stay for a long time.

It seems that Major General Dong is strict in governing the army, and Adjutant Li does not dare to slack off at all, let alone take the opportunity to accept any "benefits". Major General Dong, a warlord, does have two brushes.

Adjutant Li's mission this time was to send Xiao Nan a car promised by Major General Dong, and this car was parked outside the gate, because the real garage of the Xiao Mansion was far away from this side gate, so it could only be parked on the alleyway outside the wall.

Xiao Nan then went out of the door to see his new car, the car was almost open-topped, a boxy canopy was like a cover on the car, there were several support rods below, there were no doors, windows at all, only curtains hanging from the canopy.

The size and format are similar to those of the 21st century illegally operated self-modified tuk-tuk.

Except for the driver's seat, the rear seat barely accommodates two people crammed together.

Looking at the style of this car, you will know that it is actually not much better than the three-wheeled battery car of the future.

I have a car after all. Even this kind of car is enough for ordinary people to envy to death.

The driver of the car called Ah Cheng over and taught him casually, even if he told him how to drive, he didn't care about teaching him more than a driving school.

But Ah Cheng was overjoyed, and a group of subordinates also came around to see the excitement, and they all felt very novel.

Xiao Nan then said to the adjutant: "I am a short-sighted person, and there are few who can drive, so why don't you let the driver stay in my house?" Even if I asked Major General Dong for a favor. ”

Adjutant Li thought to himself: "Hey, you young master is really insatiable, similar to what the major general said. So he said: "The major general has long expected this, so the driver sent today will be your full-time driver in the future." But you are responsible for his monthly salary. ”

"That's easy to say." Xiao Nan said.

But this car can't always be placed outside, and he really has no conditions or power to tear down the wall of the Xiao Mansion and change the garage, so he simply bought the house opposite the side door, changed the wall, and the courtyard inside was leveled to serve as a temporary garage.

And what he bought was just the right to use the house opposite, and he had to pay rent regularly, because the final ownership of the properties near the Xiao family's mansion actually belonged to the eldest master.

Xiao Nan's successive major events have begun to spread in the Xiao Mansion, and they have spread widely. Since that afternoon, there have been more people who have come to visit, but Xiao Nan has not received them, saying that he is recuperating.

And Xiao Ci's shelf became bigger, saying that he was not free and wanted to make an appointment with Xiao Nan for another time.

Ten years from Hedong to Hexi, now she is no longer the maid who had to quietly go through the back door before.

The first to respond to him turned out to be the dessert chef who is said to be the number one in Xiao Mansion, as a chef with excellent skills and super high cooking talent, his personality is quite stinky, but because his skills are so good, he has been appreciated by the old man, but after offending many people, he still sits firmly on the throne of the back kitchen.

However, he has been unlucky recently, and the third young master used to like to eat the dim sum he made, which also gave him a lot of benefits. As soon as the third young master died, he was also implicated, and the person he offended sued the chief housekeeper, saying that he was the third young master's group.

The chief housekeeper didn't bother to disturb the master with this kind of thing, so he directly ordered the chef to belittle all the way and send him to the kitchen, and asked him to take a large sum of money to "eliminate the punishment", otherwise, he would have to suffer a lot of boards like Xiao Nan.

Because of this incident, the chef can be said to have gone bankrupt and lost face, and the huge amount of money accumulated by working in the Xiao family came to naught overnight, and now he is very depressed.

I don't know how Xiao Fang persuaded him, he actually agreed to come to Xiao Nan's yard to be a private chef, but he made a condition. He heard that Xiao Nan had just gotten a car, so he asked Xiao Nan to take him home in the car to save his relatives, and asked Xiao Nan to give his father a new gadget, so as to show the people in his hometown that he had not lost his position.

After hearing this, Xiao Nan felt that this condition was not unacceptable, but what is a "new thing"?

Xiao Fang said: "He said that he didn't know either, so he asked Thirteen Shao to think about it himself." ”

"This minion ......" Xiao Nan scolded.

After taking a breath, he said, "Okay, you tell him that I will buy a gramophone for his family, so that he can play records for his fellow villagers every day." ”

The truth is the same as the villagers who first bought color TVs like to ask their neighbors to come to their homes to watch them.

"Gramophone! Is that the one who can listen to the play at home? Xiao Fang said, "I saw my aunt's room have it." But I don't think there's much fun about that thing. It's better to go to the theater in person. ”

"Then you don't understand, the old man and the old lady like this kind of thing that can listen to dramas." Xiao Nan said, "Especially the kind that you carry with you." But not yet. ”

Xiao Fang was confused.

As a result, Xiao Nan was still injured and had difficulty moving, so he called the driver and Xiao Fang to drive to the cook's hometown in the nearby countryside, and gave his parents a hand-cranked gramophone in the shape of a large trumpet flower and a large number of records he bought from a department store.

His parents were very happy, and after Xiao Fang taught them how to use it, they immediately called almost the entire village of neighbors to their yard to listen to the play.

This is more than 60 years earlier than asking everyone to watch color TV! Of course, it caused a sensation, and fortunately the gramophone was of excellent quality, otherwise it would have been quickly broken.

Because he satisfied the vanity of the cook, he finally agreed to be a private chef in Xiao Nan's courtyard, of course, this person is very tricky, he doesn't cook meals at all, just desserts.

For him, Xiao Nan had to ask someone to prepare a pastry kitchen for him.

Finding problems and solving problems is a common academic research method for scholars, and for Xiao Nan, the long march of thousands of miles is finally a small step forward.

At the request of Xiao Nan, he was allowed to go out to practice often accompanied by the driver, driving a small car around the city, showing off all kinds of shows, and helping him continue to collect information in the city.

Those people from the Wang family really don't dare to move now. After the patriarch died, they finally understood that they were ruthless but the Xiao family, and the Xiao family couldn't provoke anyone.

Even if it's a cripple like Xiao Nan.

After a drive around the city, Xiao Nan's car became the focus of passers-by, after all, it was also a car, and it was quite eye-catching when you heard it on the side of the road.

Although Xiao Fang is a little younger than Ah Cheng, he is sophisticated, once he goes out, he is like a big brother, Ah Cheng sees that he has been favored by Xiao Nan recently, and the other party is indeed smarter than himself, so he has no opinion.

When they came out this time, they were originally going to give Meilan a new dessert made by the chef, but Xiao Fang went out and said, "Brother Cheng, I heard that you were bullied by the landlord very badly before?" Now that you're developed, how about going back to your hometown? ”

"I don't have a home anymore when I go back, and our house has been changed to another use by the landlord." Ah Chengdao.

"Hey, then go back and see the old neighborhood! Your family lives on the other side of the canal, right? Let's go there and have a look. Xiao Fang grinned and told the driver to turn around.

Their cars are nothing in the rich areas, but they are a real rarity in the slums, because almost no one drives here.

As soon as the car entered the street of the slum, it became the object of onlookers, and the children chased after it and screamed - the speed of this kind of car is actually not fast, which is equivalent to the power of a small battery car.

Sitting in an almost open-top car, Ah Cheng in new clothes was quickly recognized, and in such a crowded place, people looked down and did not look up, and the information spread quickly.

The car finally stopped at the door of Ah Cheng's original house, and now the small courtyard has become a grocery store, and the shopkeeper saw that the uncle who drove was coming, and followed a large group of neighbors to watch, so he hurriedly came out of the store, not knowing what happened.

"Brother Xiao Cheng! It's really Brother Xiao Cheng! A neighbor's child shouted, Xiao Fang jumped out of the car first, and said, "Ah Cheng, whom you know, is now the housekeeper of the Xiao family, and I came with him to see the old neighbor." ”

So he went into the shop, took a large bottle of candy, and gave the boss two oceans.

At this time, prices have not yet been inflected, and two oceans are half a month's salary of a poor worker, and it is a waste to buy a jar of sugar. When the shopkeeper saw that he had given so much money, he smiled and immediately nodded to them.

"Come on, this is Brother Xiao Cheng's treat, please eat candy." Xiao Fang grabbed a few handfuls of candy and gave it to the children who gathered around, and the onlookers who were still in shock finally reacted and behaved extremely enthusiastically.

In short, it is all kinds of patting Ah Cheng's ass, and many people insist on pulling him to their own house for dinner.

Ah Cheng is now the little housekeeper of the Xiao family, and even the car is on the road, what kind of status is that?! Who doesn't know the benefits of talking to him?

So Ah Cheng, who was so poor that others walked around when they saw him, and his relatives didn't dare to come to the door, suddenly became a fragrant dumpling among neighbors.

What made him laugh and cry even more was that there were still many people clamoring to introduce her husband to Meilan, who was only ten years old!

The landlord, who didn't even have time to put on his clothes, was late, he shouted and squeezed through the crowd, and as soon as he saw Ah Cheng, he knelt down and hugged his thigh, crying: "Ah Cheng! You're back! In the past, Abel couldn't stand you! Abel's family is short of money so he has to let you leave here temporarily! You see! You are developed now! Thanks to Aber's care for so many years, isn't it! If Abel hadn't helped you protect Meilan, Meilan would have been sold a long time ago!

You don't remember villains! Come home with me for dinner! Let Abel treat you well! ”

Ah Cheng looked at his flattering appearance, and felt disgusted when he thought of how he had bullied his brother and sister before, and without waiting for him to speak, Xiao Fang smiled and patted the charter man's shoulder and said, "I said you uncle, do you have points in your heart?" How did you treat Brother Xiao Cheng and his sister before, do you think people have no bottom in their hearts?

Do you know whose housekeeper Brother Xiao Cheng is now? Thirteen less! The one who served the Wang family with the major general yesterday! I think you're getting impatient!

Do you know the fate of more than 100 men in the Wang family? ”

"Ten, thirteen less!!" When the charter public heard that there was still flattery, the whole person froze.

"Ask for ...... Beg...... Beg to be spared...... Our Family...... I am willing to be a cow and a horse!! Be a cow and a horse!! The charter man was so frightened that he snorted for a long time, and suddenly kept kowtowing to Ah Cheng.

Seeing him like this, Ah Cheng was half angry, and when he thought of the usual behavior of the thirteen young people, he said: "Okay, I'm just like Xiao Fang said, adults don't remember villains, I don't care about what you treated my brothers and sisters before, but you are not allowed to bully the neighborhood in the future!" If I knew you were bullying everyone again, I wouldn't spare you! ”

The people around him couldn't help but applaud Ah Cheng, now his image was even taller and more brilliant, not only a successful person who returned to his hometown, but also a good man who stood out for everyone by the way, and those children looked at him with admiration.

"Don't get out of here!" Xiao Fang kicked the charter man's ass, and the charter man ran away quickly.

People laughed and cheered at the appearance of the chartered man running away, and then Xiao Fang patted Ah Cheng's back, and Ah Cheng also grabbed his shoulder, only feeling like he had an extra brother.

"Brother Xiao Cheng, you see, the thirteenth young man is a little developed, you and I have a glow on our faces, and those guys who look like dogs are scared. I think Thirteen Young is a person who does great things, and in the future, the three of us will definitely be able to make a career. "Xiao Fangdao.

"Hmmm! You're right! The young master will definitely be able to do something great! Ah Cheng looked at the scene in front of him and said happily, at this moment, there was a pride and ambition in his chest that he didn't have before.
