After two or three days of travel, I finally arrived at the destination, during which the woman who always found fault was warned by the flight attendant several times, and finally settled a lot better than before, and the couple had a bad temper, not very hygienic, and their hands and feet were still clean. Anyway, they each lived in their own ways and didn't disturb each other, and Fang Peinan and Shui Yao didn't bother with them in the end.

"Ah Yao, let's walk for half a day when we get out of the station, if you feel tired, let's find a place to rest first, and eat something by the way." Oh, by the way, does the old gentleman know we're here today? ”​

As soon as he mentioned this, Shui Yao couldn't help but sigh at the inconvenience of not having a phone. At that time, I met the old gentleman to help him once, which was originally fate, but the things he proposed later were indeed too sudden, and it was unrealistic to follow him directly that day.

It stands to reason that their family has been doing business for more than half a year, and the money they make is not small, but Shui Yao said that Shui Daquan insisted on not installing a phone first. After all, they don't know anyone else outside, living in this corner of the place, the whole village is looking down and not looking up, where they live, what people are at home, Shui Daquan is simply clear, and the installation of a telephone has to set up a telephone line, the cost is high, and there are few places to use.

But from today onwards, it will be different, once they reach a cooperation with the old gentleman, the business will suddenly expand to other provinces, and this phone will have to be installed if it is not installed.

Seeing that the time was not too early, Shui Yao didn't dare to delay, according to the address left by the old man, after asking around, from the suburbs to the city, he finally found a place for them.

The hotel opened by the old man is called Yundian Four Seasons, which is a chain of accommodation and catering, although this type is very common in later generations, in my opinion, it is definitely an advanced trend. So the first visit, out of politeness, Shui Yao brought some dried bamboo shoots from home as gifts, and the things that were done by himself were always the most sincere regardless of the price.

"Do you want to eat or stay at a hotel?"

As soon as Fang Peinan and Shui Yao entered the door, the waiter came up. The two have been on the road for a long time and have not even drunk a sip of hot water yet, out of the need to fill their stomachs, the two directly ordered a few signature dishes in the store, and the most important thing is that they want to see what level the chef in this store is, so that the old man shook his head again and again when he mentioned it.

"Let's serve these dishes first, and then open two private rooms for us."

Judging from the first floor of the hotel alone, the design here is not bad, the environment is elegant, and the accommodation conditions must not be bad. However, when Shui Yao handed the menu to the waiter, the other party showed a professional smile.

"I'm sorry comrade, there are no two dishes, fried double crispy and peach blossom pan, can you replace them with roasted yuba and tomato scrambled eggs? In addition, the price of this private room is different, there are 299 a day, there are 399 a day, do you want to go to other places to see? ”

Fang Peinan just put the luggage and sat down, and when he heard the waiter's words, he became angry, there is obviously a private room here and let them change places to live, besides, if those two signature dishes can't be made today, they can't be so perfunctory, and they can't change two things with no technical content at all to make up the number, isn't this to see what people are serving? It's too much of a deception!

"What do you mean, do you think we came from a small place and don't deserve to rest in your shop? 399's get me two, don't talk nonsense. In addition, you don't need to burn yuba and tomato scrambled eggs, you can always change to a West Lake vinegar fish, right? Isn't it possible that you can't even get a single fish from the river? ”

Shui Yao sat on the side and said nothing, but his heart blossomed: it feels really good to have a boyfriend, and Pei Nan will stand up for himself from time to time along the way, as if he is a fragile ice cube, which will break when he falls lightly, and melt as soon as the sun shines. Although some fuss is overprotective, for Shui Yao, an old aunt with a girl's heart, she really likes it!

"Heh, a hillbilly with a swollen face and a fat man, anyway, this store is not mine, I can't afford to pay for the overlord meal later, and my legs are discounted!"

Looking at the whole hotel, although the taste is good, but there are not many people scattered and scattered, Shui Yao can't help but sigh sincerely: the old man is a humble and low-key, flexible and business-minded person at first glance, but the embankment of thousands of miles is scarce in the anthill, first of all, even a lobby waiter has an attitude that his nose is eager to go to the sky, from this point of view, their business first failed halfway.

"Ah Yao, now there are more people who see people and talk nonsense, before going out, my uncle is right to let us do a few more outfits, you must not take it to heart, if the knowledge is not enough, you can re-learn, but if the brain is missing a tendon, no matter how much chicken, duck and fish you eat, you can't make it up."

In this regard, Shui Yao thought so, she was not angry because of this, but suddenly felt a little curious about Fang Pei Nan's previous experience in the capital.

"Pei Nan, have you encountered a lot of such things at school?"

Fang Peinan was stunned for a moment, just picked up the water cup and took a sip gently, thoughtfully, and slowly spoke after a long time.

"It was a long time ago, and if I said that real college life might not be as good as you think, would you believe it?"

"That place in the capital is so big that people from almost all over the country gather here. There are those who have money in the family, those who have no money, those who are officials, and those who herd cattle. It's just because of a college entrance examination that those of us who originally didn't belong to the same class had the opportunity to study together. Although most of the teachers are kind, there are other people in a university, such as the uncle standing guard at the door, the aunt who cooks in the restaurant, and so on. When you see those that are pleasing to the eye, you can add two spoonfuls of braised pork to them, but if there are those that look shabby, even if you only scoop a spoonful of cabbage root in your dish every day, you have to swallow it with a smile. ”​

"And, among the classmates, there are not a few gangs, it is enough for people to make a few heart-wrenching friends in their lives, and the rest are all fate, the university is a miniature society, everyone is an independent individual, how to choose, to put it bluntly, it is just to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. But don't worry, now that we're together, I'll protect you and don't let others bully you. ”

In her previous life, Shui Yao was also a person who went to college, how could she not know the truth? And at the end of the 70s, when you are thankful and a little closed, you can meet Liu Beibei and Wang Mianmian in a dilapidated small high school, and when you get to college, or even enter the workplace, what is impossible? But whether it is grievance or happiness, shame or glory, Fang Peinan has never mentioned it in front of him, this stupid and simple man knows to save the food stamps and change, and slowly stuffs his wallet with a brain for himself. Thinking of this, Shui Yao's nose was a little sour.

"Here, West Lake vinegar fish, peach blossom pan, beef tofu soup, two small portions of mixed noodles, two slow use!"

Seeing that the peach blossoms that were not in the waiter's mouth just now appeared on the table at this time, Shui Yao couldn't help but pick the corners of his mouth: It seems that those signature dishes are not without now, there is money to grind ghosts, as long as they can afford it, they still have a good business to do?

The original name of Peach Blossom Pan was "Peach Blossom Rice", which was made by deep-frying rice until golden brown and seasoning sauce. Pick up the small porcelain spoon at hand, scoop up a spoonful of peach blossoms, the color is golden, the pieces are distinct, the top is poured with red and yellow sweet and sour juice, the entrance is crispy, there are a few petals next to the plate to make up the shape, fresh and elegant.

After taking a bite, Shui Yao nodded secretly: Every restaurant has its own magic weapon for survival, no matter what the level of other dishes is, there must always be one or two dishes that can be used, and now this peach blossom pan can get a passing score.

But the next few dishes, to put it nicely, the taste is simply too ordinary, especially the West Lake vinegar fish that should become the signature dish, the vinegar sour taste is there, but the strong fishy smell of the fish itself has not been removed at all, and after careful inspection, it was found that the chef did not even pull out the fish tendons, no wonder it was difficult to swallow.

Following Shui Yao's rhythm, Fang Peinan tasted a few mouthfuls and stopped moving his chopsticks. In this short period of time, Fang Peinan's appetite has been raised, and although many dishes are not ready to cook, as long as you taste them carefully, you can roughly understand what the problem is. Not to mention the fishy West Lake vinegar fish, even if it is just served, the steaming tofu beef soup, which is cut into the size of a small fingernail, is obviously a little rancid after a long time, although this soup is pressed with a lot of pepper, but how can you fool Shui Yao, a ghostly little girl?

"Hahaha, little girl, you're finally here. You don't know, old man, I look forward to you every day, and I have to come to the store every three days to have a look, and I am so anxious that I am about to grow a giraffe. What do you think of these dishes? ”

Shui Yao's arrival made the old man very surprised, in fact, he had already arrived when the two of them booked the room, but he had been staying in the background and quietly observing, the waiter at the front desk did not know, this time I saw that his chairman and the first leader were acquaintances with this little girl, remembering her eyes just now, even the intestines were repentant, if it weren't for the fact that there were other people eating in the store, I was afraid that she would run over to make amends to the old man at the moment.

"These two people are my guests of honor, old man, and this meal at noon is mine; In addition, change the two best rooms for them, and the dim sum fruit bowl is the same! ”​
