Chapter 69: The Strange Beggar

The carriage led the ox cart full of goods all the way back to Fumanlou, Fan Tong beckoned the goods in the store to unload the goods, and Yun Geng Geng returned to the store first after a few words.

As soon as I entered, I saw that the entire hall was already full of customers, and it seemed that there were too many people who came out to buy during the rainy season, so the business of the restaurant should not be bad recently.

Thinking of this, she wanted to go to the back kitchen for a turn, turned to the counter and calculated the account book with the bookkeeper, and before the abacus knocked a few times, she heard the loud greeting of the second child in the store.

"Isn't this the son of the Sifu? Long time no see, please come in. ”

Hearing this, Yun Genggeng's fingertips, which were originally fiddling with the abacus, suddenly stopped, his heart tightened, and he didn't dare to look up at the door at all.

The bookkeeper next to her didn't know how much she was in her heart, so when he heard the words, he shouted at the source of the sound, "Master Si, I haven't seen you for a long time, why didn't Master Si come with me today?" These guys around you are a little bit of a face. ”

"These are my brothers, and I specially brought them over today to try our signature dishes of Fumanlou."

Yun Genggen looked up a little stunned, only to see Si Yi standing not far away with a few men he had never met, and the familiar figure he had been avoiding did not appear.

This made the apprehension in her heart disappear suddenly, but while breathing a sigh of relief, there was a faint sense of loss creeping up in her heart.

Seeing that there was only Si Yi, she felt that there was no need to continue to hide, put down the abacus in her hand and walked out sideways, raised a smile at Si Yi, and said, "Didn't you say that you have been working in Luo Shi Caoyun these days, how can you be free today, did Luo Dazhou let you go?" ”

"In the recent rainy season, Luo has been busy transporting goods recently, and Luo Dazhou also personally took people to Qingzhou, and the son called me to go back to the house first."

Hearing him mention Si Linche, Yun Geng's fingers hanging down his side moved slightly, touched his nose and asked as if inadvertently, "Then what has your son-in-law been doing lately?" ”

Hearing this, Si Yi, who was originally smiling, immediately took a little sadness, "There have been a lot of problems in the Sifu recently, first Si Ling, since the last time he held a clan meeting to elect the patriarch, he has closed the door to my son-in-law, and made it clear that he will no longer support my son-in-law as the patriarch." ”

After saying this, Si Yi was obviously a little angry on his face, frowned and said in a deep voice, "That's it, and our house bought a batch of goods from Huainan before, but today's rainy season is coming, the Si family's Cao Yun can't go at all, and the only one who dares to take the waterway is Luo Dazhou, but two days ago, somehow, he actually shipped goods to Si Wenyuan, and he completely ignored the cooperation with us, so Gongzi is worried about this batch of goods now." ”

"Now that the water is rising in all rivers, and there are heavy rains every day, no matter what, your son-in-law is not allowed to transport this batch of goods himself." Ying Geng Geng said to Si Yi with a solemn face.

As soon as these words came out, the original displeasure on Si Yi's face disappeared, and he raised his eyes to look at her and said with a smile, "Sister Geng Geng, if you care about my son-in-law, go to the house to visit him, wouldn't it be better for you to tell him these words in person?" ”

"Didn't you bring these little brothers to eat today, so I won't bother." Yun Genggeng's face did not change and he diverted the topic, turned his head and ordered the work that had just called everyone to lead them upstairs.

After sending Si Yi away, several guests walked in outside the door, one of them was dressed in rags, looking very embarrassed, like a beggar.

The work in the store was not treated differently at all, and he stepped forward with a smile to lead people to his seat, and Yun Geng was relieved to see this, and was ready to return to the back kitchen to continue researching new recipes.

But before the person had gone far, he heard the beggar order all the signature dishes on the menu, and Yun Genggen stopped and looked the man up and down with a vague look.

Ordinary beggars are not so generous, she is not worried about this person eating overlord meal, after all, the recent rainy season has come, many places have been flooded, and there are many refugees in the county.

It's just that this person orders so many dishes, can he finish it?

But she just thought about it, it was not a bad thing for her to order more food, so after thinking about it, Yun Geng stopped paying attention to that side and walked into the back kitchen by herself.

The beggar did not react at all to the gaze around him, and after ordering the food, he drank tea casually and waited for it to be served.

Soon a table of dishes was served, and he was hungry for a long time, so he picked up the chopsticks and began to eat, but he didn't want to be as rude as ordinary beggars.

He picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks, and then put it in his mouth, his originally gray eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and shouted at Xiao Er, who was busy not far away, "Who is in your back kitchen?" Is all the dishes on this table created by him? ”

The taste of this braised pork is completely different from that in other stores, it seems that this person has some real skills, no wonder this Fumanlou is so famous.

"The recipes for all the signature dishes you just ordered are from the hands of the cloud shopkeeper." When the diner next to him heard this, he stopped his chopsticks and said this.

The strange diner's words made him hook the corners of his lips, and at this time, the little second he called also came over, he raised his eyebrows and said to the little er, "I want to see your cloud shopkeeper here, you go to see her and call her." ”

The little second put the tray in his hand on the empty table on the side, and his tone was a little displeased, "You beggar want to see our shopkeeper?" It can't be a disciple from nowhere. ”

The beggar was not annoyed by his attitude, got up and said indifferently, "If you don't want to call her, I'll find it myself." ”

As he spoke, he was about to walk to the counter, and the young man would let him pass, so he immediately raised his hand to stop the person, and shouted, "I can see a lot of homeless people like you, I just want to take advantage of our shopkeeper, if you go further, I will not be polite." ”

The beggar just snorted coldly when he was stopped, turned around to the other side and was about to leave, but when he saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

For a while, the people in the hall were attracted by the entanglement of the two, and Si Yi upstairs began to pay attention to the beggar when he heard the sound.

Although this beggar looks ragged, but after careful debate, his facial features are good, I am afraid that he is not an ordinary beggar, if he wants to rob his son-in-law of Sister Geng Geng, it will be bad.

Thinking of this, Si Yi jumped down from the upstairs at once, walked directly to the beggar in three or two steps, and started to do it without saying a word.

The beggar didn't seem to expect someone to make a sudden move, and was almost hit by Si Yi, he took two steps back, dodged his attack, frowned and asked, "Who are you?" ”
