Chapter 124: The color and face are equal
After a month, Gu Yuan was finally able to enter and leave the mansion at will. After the daily morning and dusk meditation, she called the maid who was waiting around her and went out.
On the road, she saw a street vendor with men and women, which was completely different from what she knew about the inferiority of men and women, and only after understanding it did she realize that the status of women is no different from that of men, and even because women can breed offspring, their status is higher than that of men.
There are also examples of women being officials in the palace, so it is not surprising that women set up stalls on the streets to support their families.
After wandering around the street for a long time, seeing that the sun was getting more and more poisonous, Gu Yuan sent the maid to buy an umbrella, and stood by himself by himself.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood for a while, he was pushed away by a man with a black face in tattered clothes, and before Gu Yuan could open his mouth to scold, he heard people muttering and scolding.
"Yo! At the foot of this wall is your home! Don't you let anyone stand and rest? ”
The tattered man glanced at her with his cloudy eyes, still muttering something in his mouth, and the sister-in-law who sold wontons next to her said at this time: "Girl, don't stand anywhere, this wall is indeed his." If you don't dislike coming to sit on your sister-in-law's stall, there is an umbrella here, and you can't get it. ”
Gu Yuan didn't expect that he would be admonished, occupy other people's land, and hurriedly responded to the words of the wonton sister-in-law, went to her shop and sat down, and asked for a bowl of ice mung bean soup to quench his thirst.
"Is what my sister-in-law just said true?"
"Girl, don't ask, this matter is also unlucky, you can eat some bean water here with me to cool off." The eldest sister-in-law refused Gu Yuan's questioning and went to take care of herself.
At this time, Cui'er came back from buying an umbrella, Gu Yuan paid the money and forgot the direction of his restaurant with the umbrella, and his belly was a little empty at noon.
"Guest officer, please!" The shopkeeper greeted people loudly as soon as he saw them, but when he saw the people in front of him, he was a little familiar. "Yo, it's Miss, why are you free to come to the store today? What do you want to eat and write today? The villain is going to report to you. ”
Xiao Er obviously knows Hai Donggu, and she often comes here to eat. Gu Yuan took note of his heart and said casually: "Please let the little second brother serve some refreshing dishes, I don't want to eat anything particularly greasy recently." ”
"Well, you go upstairs and sit, the food will be here in a while!" As he spoke, the apprentice on the side led the young lady to the private room, and went to the back kitchen to report the food by himself.
Gu Yuan sat on the collapse by the window, watching the people coming and going in the well market, listening to the shouts of the vendors one after another, as if he was Hai Donggu at this time.
"Not really, you are now." 9133 interjects at this moment.
"Hey, I'm talking about artistic conception, do you understand artistic conception?"
"I don't understand, I withdraw."
Looking at the people who watched the dishes, they came, and there were four dishes, three dishes and one soup. This is the tradition of the Hai family, because they are afraid of hunger in the famine year, so the younger generations are not allowed to be extravagant and wasteful.
Gu Yuan asked Cui'er to reward the waiter who wrote broken silver for the food, and took him to close the door and leave before putting down the shelf and letting Cui'er sit down to eat together.
Cui'er hurriedly waved her hand and said no, you can't break the rules. Gu Yuan said for a long time, and when he didn't see her sit down, he took a bowl and sandwiched some of each dish for her, compromised it, and let her eat it standing up.
At this time, Cui'er no longer shirked, but couldn't stop thanking her.
"Eat, eat, you're all tired after a morning of walking." Gu Yuan knew that being sold to someone else's house to be a slave was something that he couldn't hold up for the rest of his life, although he couldn't change the status quo, it was always okay to be kind to her.
These three dishes are all must-eat in summer, there are cold shredded potatoes, refreshing potato chips, the soup is also chilled, and a small plate of pastries, eating almost Gu Yuan feels that the chef's skills are really good, and a simple cold shredded potato can also make new ideas, no wonder Haijia Restaurant can stand tall in this prosperous area.
There are some real skills in the body!
After eating, he rested for a while, and avoided the hot sun Gu Yuan before going downstairs to settle the bill.
Some people will ask, do you have to settle the bill when you eat in your own restaurant?
Yes, this is also a beautiful character handed down by the ancestors of the Hai family. No matter where you eat, you have to pay the bill, and so do you at home. Because credit will aggravate the work of the account room, it is difficult to reconcile accounts in the later stage.
Gu Yuan also agrees with this point of view very much, and developing good habits should be cultivated from an early age.
Calculating Hai Donggu's age, if nothing else, she should inherit the family property in two years.
But her father didn't seem to have any intention of asking her to learn how to manage the restaurant, and Gu Yuan felt that this was a little wrong.
Usually, people cultivate heirs to let her come into contact with them from an early age, so that she can familiarize herself with the management process as soon as possible, but when she came to Haidonggu, she really grew up spoiled since she was a child and never came into contact with management matters.
Although every time the cheap dad said that he didn't want his baby daughter to work too hard, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that things are not as simple as he said.
It's getting old, so it seems a bit too much to say that, right?
This seed of doubt has been planted in Gu Yuan's heart, I don't know if the previous Hai Donggu also planted this seed like her, anyway, for the current Gu Yuan, anyone is worthy of doubt.
In the afternoon, Gu Yuan led Cui'er to visit the temple fair, it was almost the begging festival, there were a lot of good men and women in the temple, I didn't know, I was startled when I asked, most of them came to ask for marriage, only Gu Yuan, this strange thing, really came to visit the temple fair.
At the temple fair, they also met the daughter of the second uncle's family, Hai Ruoyan, who had been against Aunt Hai Dong before.
This child has been looking at Hai Donggu unpleasantly since he was a child, he has to compare with her in everything, and he is better than her, and he is still the same, and he doesn't like her very much.
But in order to maintain family harmony, the previous Haidong Gu would still get along with her with a pleasant face.
But Gu Yuan is not the kind of peace-loving person, since you don't give me a good face, then I don't need to give it to you, it's not bad that she didn't fight back with a tooth for a tooth, and she still wants her to accompany the smiling face, impossible!
"My sister is here to ask for marriage, right?" Hai Ruoyan came up with a smile in the blink of an eye, and before Gu Yuan could speak, she said to herself: "Oh, look at my memory, my sister is not yet old enough to get married!" How? Sister, is this a time when you can't wait to marry yourself off? ”
After finishing speaking, he covered his mouth and laughed non-stop, Gu Yuan looked at her coquettish posture and was reluctant to roll his eyes to her.
With a pinch of mouth, she replied: "Sister, I'm afraid I'm not joking, right?" Sister, as the heir of the Hai family, I naturally came here to pray for the Buddha to bless my Hai family with prosperity. ”
"It's my sister, and my sister remembers that my sister already has a marriage contract. What is my sister doing here? Could it be ......" Gu Yuan said and glanced at her meaningfully, as if he was saying don't pretend, I don't know what you look like?
The angry Hai Ruoyan interrupted her in a lost voice, "Shut up, don't ruin my reputation!" ”
