Chapter Seventy-Five: Thanks to Ling Ai......
Early the next morning, there was a guest in Xiangmanyuan who was very annoying to all the guys and felt that it was a bit strange to appear here - the original shopkeeper. Shopkeeper Chen was settling accounts in the lobby, and when he raised his eyes, he saw him. He frowned, not too happy to see his competitor, but still asked the man to find him a good seat by the window.
The original shopkeeper didn't come alone, and Yang Xuan came with him.
Shopkeeper Chen's brows furrowed even tighter. For Chen Yao's sake, he once inquired about what kind of person Yang Xuan was and what he was doing. The conclusion is that this person is the second shopkeeper of Baiweiju, and other people's evaluations of him seem to be all approachable, but Shopkeeper Chen has been in this industry for decades, and hearing is better than seeing, even if Yang Xuan pretends to be good, he can see at a glance that this is not an easy person to figure out.
He was not very happy to let Chen Yao associate with Yang Xuan, but he was really happy to see his daughter with him, and Yang Xuan didn't do anything to be sorry for her, so that's it, he didn't want to meddle too much - Shopkeeper Chen didn't know about Yang Xuan and Caihe, and Chen Yao didn't take the initiative to mention it in order to protect the person he liked, and later Yang Xuan also apologized to her, so she wouldn't say anything.
"Yo, Shopkeeper Chen, are you busy here early in the morning? Xiangmanyuan is really blessed to have a shopkeeper like you. ”
This is insinuating, it sounds very good, but if you think about it carefully, the inner meaning is that Xiangmanyuan has to do everything in person, and there is not even a capable guy in such a big restaurant, which is really cold enough.
Shopkeeper Chen didn't understand the meaning of his words on the smiling face of the original shopkeeper, but his tone was still light, "No way, our family is not bigger than the original shopkeeper's family, besides, some things have to be checked by me, the shopkeeper?" The original shopkeeper is a blessed one, and his men are quite capable. ”
Shopkeeper Chen also said sarcastically, capable? They are all "capable people" who went to other restaurants to dig up, can they do it?
The original shopkeeper listened and listened, looking indifferent. However, he saw that the shopkeeper Chen was not moving, so he no longer dwelled on this topic, and slowly fanned the fan in his hand with a smile - a guy pouted beside him, the day has not warmed up, and he is not afraid of freezing himself by fanning the fan. Shopkeeper Chen glanced at him, and a little angrily slandered in his heart, his face was still unmoved, and he instructed the guy: "Treat the original shopkeeper well, this is a rare guest." ”
The word rare guest bites very hard.
The guys in the lobby responded smartly, and after listening to the original shopkeeper's instructions to try the fragrant specialty dishes, he immediately trotted back to the back kitchen to explain to Chef He and Jiang Yu.
Chef He didn't react when he heard it, in his eyes, if you come to eat, you are a guest, no matter who you are, anyway, whoever comes he cooks the same way. But a brave guy quietly bit Jiang Yu's ear: "Cook for the original shopkeeper, do you think we should add some croton to it?" ”
Jiang Yu couldn't cry or laugh, and people didn't provoke them when they came to eat, although they didn't do it to their families, right? If something really happens to the dinner in Xiangmanyuan, the reputation will be greatly affected.
She shook her head, squatted down to look at the fire burning in the stove, and whispered, "Who's here isn't all the same cooking?" Don't think about it so much, just go about your own business. ”
Chef He also heard this sentence and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yu. He looked at the guys whispering, although he couldn't hear it clearly, but he could roughly guess what they were talking about, after all, everyone had experienced the most depressed period of Xiangmanyuan, and naturally they were more or less resentful of Baiweiju. He thought that Jiang Yu was young and would share the same hatred as them, but he didn't expect to have the same opinion as himself.
The dishes he does are still Chef He's specialty dishes, and the ones made by Jiang Yu have also made a lot of limelight in Nancheng, and it is impossible for the original shopkeeper not to know. It wasn't clear why he came to the door today, and the shopkeeper Chen didn't want to just give the truth, so he asked the guy to ask Jiang Yu to make a spicy chicken. Anyway, this dish has recently been the talk of Nancheng after tea and dinner, and by the way, I showed off to the original shopkeeper.
Plus, there are a little other careful thoughts, the original shopkeeper is not too good at eating spicy people, you can't eat it, I see how you can learn!
Baiweiju's ability to learn other dishes is said to be the second in Nancheng, so no restaurant can be said to be the first. Besides, the broth they drank behind Xiangmanyuan these days was enough for them to make a lot of money, and Shopkeeper Chen was a little uncomfortable when he saw him - didn't he want to learn this spicy chicken? As soon as he changed the recipe, he couldn't wait to come, when he didn't know what he wanted to do?
As soon as the spicy chicken was served on the table, the original shopkeeper was so smoked by the spicy smell that he coughed again and again. Yang Xuan glanced at him and didn't speak, eating and drinking by himself, and responded lightly to the words of the original shopkeeper. He actually didn't want to come, because he had only eaten with Chen Yao once, and this time he came with the original shopkeeper, no matter how you look at it, there is something wrong with it, originally Chen Yao had some opinions about his identity as the second shopkeeper, but ...... The original shopkeeper didn't eat spicy food, and he wanted to come in person, so he could only accompany him.
Xiangmanyuan's craftsmanship is really good, even Chef He's craftsmanship is a little different from before, probably influenced by Jiang Yu, not as regular as he remembers, but a little more casual - he also planned to poach Chef He before, but Chef He refused, and then he thought about Chef He's old-fashioned personality and unchanged cooking style, so he stopped thinking.
The original shopkeeper looked at the back kitchen while eating, but this was what made him feel interesting, otherwise why did he bother to surpass Xiangmanyuan?
Gee. When the incense is in his hands, he has to rebuild this lobby first, and now it looks earthy, and the taste of the shopkeeper Chen is not very good; Those people in the back kitchen can keep a part, if they don't want to stay, he doesn't force it, it's more convenient to replace it with his own people, as for ginger fish...... Since she didn't like to come to Baiweiju in the first place, then don't come, just send it out.
When the original shopkeeper was drinking wine and dreaming, Yang Xuan pushed a plate of fried Ma Lantou in front of the original shopkeeper - this dish was still a dish made by Jiang Yu when they went to the picnic, and the shopkeeper Chen thought it tasted good, and the wild vegetables were fresh and tender in spring, and there were a lot of them, just enough to cook for a few days, so he asked the guy to add this dish to the menu.
"What's so delicious about this wild vegetable?"
The original shopkeeper's mouth is not tricky, he can eat anything, but if the food is not delicious, he is not happy, and he feels that people snub him.
Yang Xuan didn't have any expression on his face, and his tone was still as light as his expression, "Wild vegetables are not your appetite, I just want to tell you to eat more vegetables and drink less, don't play drunk in other people's restaurants at that time." ”
The expression of the original shopkeeper was not very good-looking all of a sudden.
The two of them have been worshipping brothers for a long time, Yang Xuan is originally a thoughtful person, and he doesn't know what the original shopkeeper thinks. He was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to put a long line to catch a big fish, so he ran to the front of others to brush up on his sense of existence, and by the way, he used his sense of superiority - Baiweiju's back to attack the shopkeeper Chen.
Perhaps because of Chen Yao, Yang Xuan has always held a neutral attitude towards this matter. In all fairness, he didn't want to see Chen Yao unhappy, but he still had something to do.
This little girl is just a factor that can affect him, not a decisive factor. If Jiang Yu knew what he thought, he would definitely shout again, it was really unreliable! In fact, in other words, for Yang Xuan, Chen Yao is not important enough to be equal to his career, after all, in his heart, women are only used to pamper. If someone pampers more, he will give in a little more, such as Chen Yao; Some people just have a pastime and change their tastes, so they can pamper less, such as lotus picking.
The two men had eaten and drunk enough, and sat down where they were for a while. The original shopkeeper has a very good amount of wine, and the wine in the fragrant garden is not too strong, but it is soft but with a bit of spicy wine, which is just right to lure the wine worm of the original shopkeeper, and it will not make him drunk, and there is still a lingering fragrance in the mouth. Today's dishes are not bad, Chef He's skills are getting more and more sophisticated, but Jiang Yu's dishes are like having a grudge against them, and the spicy chicken is so spicy that the eyes of the two of them are red.
But if you think so, you really wronged her, maybe in front of this dish, Yang Xuan and the original shopkeeper's characteristics of not being able to eat spicy food have been magnified a lot.
"Shopkeeper Chen, this dish is really good today. That little girl in your back kitchen is really capable. ”
This praise is half-true and half-false, of course, the shopkeeper Chen will not be overjoyed because of a sentence, but he just raised his head from the complicated account book and said politely, "It's good to be able to taste the original shopkeeper." I'm still busy here, so I won't send it. ”
The eviction order is obvious.
The original shopkeeper didn't have the intention of leaving, so he put a small piece of silver ingot on the table in the lobby, although his nose was so spicy that his nose was red, but his smile didn't seem to be affected at all, but he could say it, "We have also learned a lot of skills from you during this time, and we have to thank Ling Ai for helping us a lot in the back kitchen." ”
As soon as Shopkeeper Chen heard this, his face sank. What do you mean? Why did the original shopkeeper suddenly pull Chen Yao?
Yang Xuan was also a little surprised, but he quickly put away his surprised look, stood behind the original shopkeeper, didn't say a word, his face was as heavy as Chen's shopkeeper - he didn't expect the original shopkeeper to suddenly say this, before that, the original shopkeeper had not discussed this matter with him! But they are always together now, and they all represent Baiweiju, he can't dismantle the platform of the original shopkeeper at this moment, he can only endure it.
Shopkeeper Chen didn't say a word, and he didn't know what the original shopkeeper wanted to sell, so he listened to the original shopkeeper continue: "These dishes are really good. Thanks to Ling Ai explaining these practices to our family's second shopkeeper, we can take the kitchen skills to the next level! ”
