90 The family eagerly asks about the date of marriage
Naturally, it is necessary to do it, but the taste in the pot of spicy soup is really heavy, Qin Wuran still made it light, and made some fish balls and shrimp balls, which were sent to the old lady with some commonly eaten dishes and grilled skewers.
So the other side just got angry because of the kitchen, and there was just food to soothe it, and the old man was a little relieved.
It's just that the people who should be punished have been punished, the old lady has been a thunderbolt since she was young, and those who haven't touched the kitchen for so many years are just because Xinzhong can't get over that hurdle, this time Shen Linzhou made sense, so she naturally did it directly.
Shen Linzhou was not surprised when he heard the news, after all, the old lady was able to take charge of such a big family, how could it be a little courageous, and he didn't worry much from the beginning.
So taking advantage of this panicked time, Shen Linzhou personally went to the kitchen and found four experienced cooks, saying that he was going to Shanhe Restaurant to help cook.
Being able to work in the Shen Mansion shows that this person must have some ability, plus because of his age, working as a helper for a thirteen-year-old girl, how can he not get over the diaphragm in his heart, but when he thought of what the old lady said before, saying that they took themselves too seriously, these four people could only look at each other, and then followed their young master.
In this way, the Shanhe restaurant added four more cooks, and when Shen Linzhou brought people over, Qin Wuran was still a little surprised, and heard Shen Linzhou say that he let him call at will, so naturally it was impossible to really do what he said.
Early in the morning, the mountain and river restaurant opened, and invited people to do a vigorous one, and the sound of firecrackers also rang one after another for half an hour, and many people were attracted to come, but as soon as they looked at the battle inside, they knew that this store was not cheap, and the common people were naturally discouraged, and those who were rich naturally had a place where they often went, and for a while, the mountain and river restaurant was not interested, or there were a few people who wanted to come in and try the price, and they shook their heads and went out.
"Are we setting the price too high?" Qin Wuran originally stayed in a small place like Yuanxi Town, so naturally she didn't think that it was just a dish, why could she ask for such a high price, but compared to her, Shen Linzhou had a calm and calm face, and even held a cup of tea leisurely.
"Let the kitchen prepare, there will be five or six tables today, and we are not in a hurry."
Seeing that the proprietors were all complacent, Qin Wuran naturally didn't want to worry too much, so he asked the kitchen to prepare first according to what he said, but only three tables of those ingredients were prepared, and it seemed that he didn't believe what Shen Linzhou said about five or six tables.
Shanhe restaurant reopened, but there were very few people who came to the door, and gradually there was a rumor that it was the owner of this side whimsical, and the price of a dish was dozens of dollars to one or two silver, and over time, there were a lot of people who came to see the excitement, one by one gathered outside and pointed, and it seemed that they were not very optimistic.
When it was almost noon, even those who watched the excitement dispersed one by one, after all, although the excitement was beautiful, but it was impossible not to eat at noon, so at this time, Wang Yuanhong came over with seven or eight brothers and sisters, and the carriage stopped at the door with a burst of fanfare.
The onlookers were still wondering when he would come out, but they didn't expect this group of people to go directly to the shopkeeper.
"Look at your business, it's not doing well, why don't you just make our money, anyway, it's your own brother and you don't have to divide mine, I'll support you, and I can't let you not open today." Wang Yuanhong opened his mouth to say a joke.
Shen Linzhou didn't care, and casually threw him a menu for him to go back and order by himself, and the people outside saw this and found that the shopkeeper was also a young man from a certain family.
Looking at it this way, a purely child's play behavior can be explained.
Wang Yuanhong originally came for Qin Wuran's craftsmanship, and when he went back, he boasted to his brothers and sisters about Haikou, saying that the things he had eaten here were unheard of and unseen, but because he said it too exaggeratedly, no one believed him, and in the end, if it wasn't for Wang Yitong, the eldest sister of the Wang family, to help him say a few words, I'm afraid these people wouldn't be able to bring it today.
"I don't see you have a few dishes here, otherwise I'll give you a copy for the master, and we'll take it back if you can't finish eating." Wang Yuanhong had tasted all the dishes on this menu, and at this time, he couldn't choose any of them, and he brought enough money over today, so he waved his hand at this time, looking very generous.
Shen Linzhou was still reading a book behind the cabinet calmly, and when he heard this, he raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "Didn't you say that you didn't have any pocket money in your hand some time ago?" What's the matter, your grandmother gave it to you again? ”
"Where can it," the seventh sister of the Wang family, who was sitting next to her, covered her lips and chuckled, "Shen Gongzi doesn't know, he made a bet with us before, if the food here is really as he said, then let's pay together, if it's not satisfactory, then he will do it alone, I guess he also took out all the belongings." ”
Shen Linzhou shook his head when he heard this, "Although I would also like to see him deflated, but this time you make this bet with him, you will lose." ”
As soon as these words came out, they were very sure of Qin Wuran's craftsmanship, and these sons and ladies of the Wang family also knew that Shen Linzhou would never tell lies, so they also looked at each other.
Wang Yuanhong looked triumphant and triumphant, as if today's meal was in vain.
However, after tasting Qin Wuran's craftsmanship, he does have this confidence.
Seeing that it was only the end of the hour at this time, although every household had already smoked, there were still pedestrians on the road, and the name of the dish was reported in front of him, and Qin Wuran also started the fire here, and it didn't take long for a stream of halo incense to float out, which made the people passing by around slightly stunned.
How can there be no fireworks in the restaurant? As long as the window is opened, the smell wafts out quickly, but the smell of smoke wafting from other stores will inevitably be a little choking, but the halogen that has just been opened is very tempting, and some people can no longer walk after stopping, and when they come back to their senses, there are already several gathered in front of the counter.
Shen Linzhou is just temporarily acting as a shopkeeper today, after all, he has nothing to do, and when others asked if he could take out those lo-mei, he nodded, and then handed it over to others to entertain.
Unlike other dishes, lo-mei is prepared in advance, so there are more preparations, and there are still ten tables left, and Shen Linzhou is ready to sell them.
Once there were more people, everyone stopped looking outside, and gradually more people came to buy lo-mei.
Originally, it was just cut and loaded, which was not a problem at all, but the kitchen said that they would have to wait a little longer, so these people waited anxiously, until a very domineering aroma directly overshadowed the lo-mei, and everyone saw someone come out with a pot, and the oil soup in it seemed to be still tumbling, and it looked like it had just been taken out of the stove not long after.
"What is this?" Someone couldn't help but ask, and Xiao Er explained it to him.
However, compared to the frequent look-arounds here, Wang Yuanhong didn't have time to explain at all, at the beginning, the young ladies were still reserved, and after tasting the taste, they didn't care about the etiquette on the table, the left and right were juniors, and no one had to care about anyone.
So everyone saw these sons of the family with a glamorous appearance and began to grab food, as if they hadn't eaten a full meal for many days.
"Bring me a pot like the one on the table, and I'll get a taste of what this food tastes like I've never seen before."
Xiao Er naturally hurriedly responded, seeing that there were men and women among them, he couldn't help but push the bottom of the clear soup pot, fortunately, this is also a master who is not bad for money, and at that time, he ordered two pots with a wave of his hand, Xiao Er said that he was giving them ten skewers, and the people next to him were also a little moved.
With this table and two tables, the atmosphere seems to be warm, but the most popular is the pot that tastes very domineering, and few people have tried other dishes, only one table ordered a golden silk anchovy shrimp, purely because the woman saw that the anchovy shrimp on the picture was very good-looking, so she liked it, so she ordered one.
The pots of the guests at the table were quickly delivered, and Xiao Er explained to them how to eat, and reminded them not to burn them, so he put down the freshly grilled lamb skewers and left.
It's just that when I walk, I was a little hurried, as if if I stopped for a longer time, I couldn't help but start to be greedy.
This is something ordered by the customer.
As the pot came up, everyone who smelled the smell felt like a cat scratching in their hearts, and saliva kept coming out of their mouths, so several people walking on the road heard each other's swallowing, and finally a few people gritted their teeth and came in.
Shen Linzhou just didn't want to give Qin Wu too much hope before, lest things didn't develop as he expected, which would discourage his self-confidence.
However, in his heart, in fact, today's ten tables are estimated to be full soon, and sure enough, when they arrive at the table, there are still seven or eight people competing for it.
At least I tasted a little more of the food.
These ten tables are very happy, even if others are hooked by this taste, they can only return with regrets, after all, Shen Linzhou said that ten tables a day are ten tables, and if you want to buy lo-mei or skewers, you can take them away, so you also left more than half of the guests.
From the end of the day to the end of the day, the guests left one after another, this time it was the lunch break, and there was no one outside, Shen Linzhou simply asked people to close the door, and Dayong closed the door to thank the guests.
The people outside looked puzzled, after all, it was closed at this time, wouldn't the business be done?
But no matter how much they doubted in their hearts, Shen Linzhou said that if he didn't do it, he wouldn't do it, as soon as the door was closed, they began to clean up, and only Wang Yuanhong was still here, holding a lot of silver in his hand, it seemed that he didn't want to give it.
I looked a little funny next to me, but after all, this was a friend of the owner, and they didn't want to make fun of it openly, so they all went into the kitchen after they were busy with their work, and Qin Wuran also happened to come out at this time, so she saw Zhang Ruanyang smiled at her and said, "There's a good show ahead, the little boss hurry over." ”
Where does Qin Wuran know what kind of drama to watch? It's just that there are a lot of guests here today, which also makes her feel very happy.
It's just that when she arrived in the lobby, she found that Wang Yuanhong was almost slumped on the chair, and Shen Linzhou was up and down on him, and Wang Yuanhong could still hear Wang Yuanhong's dissatisfied shouts.
Qin Wuran didn't know what kind of expression to put on, so in the end she could only raise her eyebrows, then showed an embarrassed smile, and turned around to leave.
It is said that there is also a good Longyang in the imperial capital, but he didn't expect that Shen Linzhou was also one of them, Qin Wuran only felt that he was in the way here, and he was about to leave subconsciously.
However, her thoughts were like wild horses that couldn't be dragged back, but Shen Linzhou didn't know why he suddenly picked up her thoughts, and hurriedly came over and pulled someone away.
"I'm going to grab the money bag with him."
Qin Wuran was slightly stunned, and then she was a little embarrassed by her previous thoughts, so she could only cough lightly and throw out those thoughts, and then asked, "What are you doing robbing him of his money bag?" ”
Shen Linzhou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that this scene was finally over, "He doesn't want to give money after eating, so I naturally have to come back." ”
Wang Yuanhong only cared about protecting the money bag in his hand, and didn't notice that the thoughts of the two of them were already turning a hundred times, so he just shouted on the side: "Don't say anything else, let's talk about this guest today, is it because I came to you for a meal, so they also came?" If you don't thank me, forget it, how can you still ask me to give money? We're still not brothers? ”
"My brothers are still settling accounts, and I can open the back door for you to line up this table for you, you don't have to make an inch."
Wang Yuanhong snorted directly when she heard this, "You don't talk nonsense, just this early morning scene, if I don't bring our brothers and sisters of the Wang family to support you, you probably haven't opened yet, and now you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" It doesn't make sense. ”
He said that this seemed to be like wanting to be recognized by people, and he glanced at Qin Wuran with righteous indignation, "Miss Qin, did you say it?" ”
Quarrels between friends are not something that they can get involved in, and Qin Wuran can only hand over a helpless glance to Wang Yuanhong, and then shrugged his shoulders and said: "Don't get involved with me in your affairs, I am just a person who uses money to do things for others, and the matter of collecting money is still in charge of our boss." ”
Wang Yuanhong's eyes widened slightly when she heard this, knowing that Qin Wuran would definitely not help herself, so she wailed for a while: "I said Brother Shen, you can leave some for me, I finally saved up so much money, and I am going to buy books in a while, you have hollowed me out this time, how can I spend the rest of my time?" ”
"Don't tell me to buy books, all you buy are those idle books, it doesn't matter if you want it or not, not to mention that the money is not saved by you, but the money you won from your brothers and sisters, and you eat it, you can't let me lose money after all."
"Then take credit first, can't I pay you back later?" Wang Yuanhong obviously said something on credit, but it seemed to be a matter of course, which also made people feel a little funny.
Shen Linzhou's eyes flashed a little shrewdly calculated, and then said with a smile: "It's okay to take credit, but the interest on my side is more than outside, and you can directly double this meal money for me after a month." ”
"Then why don't you grab it?" Wang Yuanhong scolded angrily, "How many years have we been friends, and you didn't even give me this kind of affection?" Do you want to be brothers in the future? ”
"Brothers to brothers, this money is still clear, my family is in business, but I will not help a family like you, now there are only two ways in front of you, either give me the money in your hand, or you come to me on credit, but I count you more interest."
Seeing that the other party was not good at talking, Wang Yuanhong could only grit his teeth, "Then on credit, a little more interest will be more, and my dignified son of the Wang family can still lack this money?" You just wait, in a month, don't say it's double, I can take it out three times. ”
Shen Linzhou nodded when he heard this, "Then it's three times better." ”
Wang Yuanhong was stunned by his words, and finally reacted, and immediately burst into a rage, "If you don't take you to be such a trick, let's say twice as much, but don't add more." ”
The two of them just messed around, and in the end, twice was indeed double, but after the decision, Wang Yuanhong was obviously a little relieved, as if the person who had been cheated on the double interest just now was not him.
Qin Wuran looked at the side and secretly said to herself, although Shen Linzhou said this is not ingenious, but Wang Yuanhong is very good everywhere, and it is worthy of being from a merchant family.
In this way, Wang Yuanhong walked away with his bulging money bag dejectedly, Shen Linzhou looked successful, and Qin Wuran laughed at him.
"Being friends with you has to prevent being cheated out of money by you, but I'm really tired and panicked."
This sentence is obviously a joke, Qin Wuran was even more smiling when she said this, Shen Linzhou's heart was soft when he looked at it, but he also explained to her: "The reason why his grandmother found him a girl for him to look at is also because he is not young, and there is such a sister-in-law in the family, and the older generation of people feel that they start a family first and then start a business, and they always want to find a woman who knows him to serve him, and he is tired of chatting on weekdays, which is actually not a bad intention."
It's just that he is used to being casual, but he attaches great importance to the choice of his wife, and he must like it, and over time, the relationship with the family will be separated. I insisted on deceiving the money from him this time, and I also hope that he will reconcile with the family, after all, you also know that the expenses of our sons and brothers are also very large, and they are only a small official position in the court, and they can't get much for a month's salary, and they still have to rely on the family to maintain at such an age, I told her that if he wants to double the interest, he will definitely reconcile with the family in a short time. ”
Qin Wuran really didn't expect that there was this layer in it, but after thinking about it carefully, Wang Yuanhong always called him "Brother Shen" and "Brother Shen", and he should be younger than Shen Linzhou, so he was also a little curious in his heart.
"I look at him as if he is not as old as you, why is your family not in a hurry, and her family has already declined to this point?"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Linzhou smiled meaningfully, Qin Wuran felt that something was wrong when he looked at his expression, and was thinking about it in his heart, when he heard Shen Linzhou open his mouth.
"If my family is not in a hurry, how can I pull the two of us together in a hurry?"
