When it came to the marriage contract between the two, Qin Wuran naturally blushed, after all, in her opinion, it was actually just a casual remark from the elders, and the two people involved really didn't need to care too much.

However, in recent times, perhaps because Shen Linzhou was too good to her, she sometimes felt a little embarrassed when facing Shen Linzhou.

It's just that after this, Qin Wuran quickly calmed down her emotions, and in the face of Shen Linzhou's sudden question, she just replied: "Our marriage contract doesn't count, when I mentioned it in front of Uncle Shen some time ago, didn't he say that he didn't force it?" So you don't have to joke with me about it. ”

Originally, it was an explanation sentence, but when he heard it in the ears of others, he felt a little bit of rejection, Shen Linzhou felt a little depressed inexplicably, but after that, he also felt that his emotions were inexplicable, so he forced himself to suppress it, and continued on the topic they just said.

"The Wang family has been a scholarly family for many years, and the people in the family are more traditional, and they only think that men should give the marriage before the crown, and it is not too late to do it at any time. After all, you also know that inheritance is a big deal for the family, and his grandmother is so old, she wants to hold her grandson, and she should be eager. ”

"As for why I don't persuade ...... at home," Shen Linzhou said and shrugged his shoulders, "Actually, the old lady is also ready to persuade her, but I am not happy, so she didn't say anything more." ”

Listening to him as an old lady, it seemed that from the time she first came into contact with this, Qin Wuran had never heard Shen Linzhou change her words, so she asked again: "Why don't you call her grandmother, but call him old lady?" ”

When he said this, Shen Linzhou was a little awkward, although he didn't support it, but in the end, he didn't say a reason.

After all, he is such a big person, and it is not good to tell Qin Wuran that the reason why he is not called the old lady's grandmother is completely because of the previous gamble, so he insists on opening the relationship between the two.

Fortunately, the old lady didn't bother with him at all, sometimes she called her grandmother, sometimes she called the old lady, she sounded harmless, and she never even mentioned it.

It can be seen that among so many grandchildren, her favorite is Shen Linzhou.

It's just that this is someone else's family matter after all, since she can't ask it, Qin Wuran didn't pursue the answer, and this question was quickly left behind by her.

Most of the people in the kitchen were cleaned up, and at this time, the division of labor returned the pots and pans to their original places, and the kitchen returned to its original cleanliness for a while.

However, after this exclamation came out, Shen Linzhou was not very satisfied, "One day I will take you to the back kitchen of the Shen family restaurant to have a look, and you will know what it means to be orderly." ”

Growing up in the back kitchen of Li Ji Restaurant, Qin Wuran thought that she knew a lot about the things in this kitchen, but in such a big place as the Shen Family Restaurant, what kind of kitchen did it look like, Qin Wuran really couldn't imagine it, so she was inexplicably looking forward to it. ，

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, otherwise let's go to observe and observe today, which can be regarded as letting me see for a long time."

Originally, it was just a casual remark, asking Qin Wuran not to have such low requirements for these people, otherwise it would be difficult to manage in the future.

However, at this time, seeing that she seemed to be really interested, Shen Linzhou thought about it, so he nodded, "It's early for the end of the day, let's go and have a look." It's just that you can only look in through the window, and if you go in, you're afraid you'll disturb them. ”

It's already a good thing to be able to go, how can Qin Wuran ask for too much? So he nodded quickly, cleaned up himself, and pulled Shen Linzhou to go to the back kitchen of the Shen family restaurant.

It's just that it's not evening yet, so Shen Linzhou proposed that she make preparations for tomorrow first, and it's not too late to go when business is good.

Qin Wuran didn't raise any objections, and went to the new kitchen to get busy again, this time people who were interested in cooking all gathered around, some people just watched a lively, and some people wanted to ask for advice, Qin Wuran also took the trouble to teach them, and in the end, she really found a few people who were proficient in cooking.

"There won't be so many people to entertain you for the time being, so a few of you will follow me in the kitchen in the future, if you do a good job, we will calculate it according to the cook's salary."

As soon as these words came out, those people were naturally very happy, after all, for entertaining guests, although the work in the kitchen was a little tiring, but the monthly income of the cook was also high, and for a while, these people wanted to show it immediately.

The others were also a little eager to try, Shen Linzhou saw that they all had the heart to go to the back kitchen, and it was not okay for no one to entertain in front, so he added: "If you do a good job in entertaining guests, I will also give you monthly money, in short, no matter what your identity is in our Shanhe restaurant, as long as you are loyal to the owner, you will be rewarded for doing well." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to be afraid that these people would think that they were just talking big, and he gently tapped the folding fan in the palm of his hand, looking a little childish and extravagant.

"After all, you also know that the mountain behind the Shanhe restaurant is the Shen family, and the Shen family is rich, not to mention anything else, I still pay your wages."

After these few promises, a group of people seemed to have hope, and the work after that became even harder.

However, at this time, there were these people in the kitchen to help, and the things to be prepared were quickly prepared, Qin Wuran rested for a while, and was about to ask Shen Linzhou what he had to do next, when he saw the person who was still closing his eyes and recuperating stood up and raised his chin towards her.

"Let's go, I'll show you the world."

It's not too late now, and only those who have an early dinner will go to the restaurant at this time, but even so, the business in the Shen family restaurant is still very good, and the entire lobby is almost full, just by looking at it like this, Qin Wuran can't help but sigh in her heart.

It's really a first-class restaurant in the imperial capital, and it's the first time she's seen such a battle.

However, after looking at it from the front, Shen Linzhou did not bring people in, but directly detoured through the back door, and then said to the person guarding the door, and entered through the back door.

The back door leads directly to a large courtyard, where a lot of things are dried, and there are people who wash dishes and dishes working outside, and it is estimated that they are too busy to stand on their feet.

Qin Wuran took a closer look, and saw that although the dishes and plates in front of them were all piled up into a small mountain, they did not slack off in the slightest in terms of cleaning, ensuring that every place was clean, and several people also performed their own duties, cleaning while washing, and their actions were not dragged into the water.

However, this was only the tip of the iceberg, and when Shen Linzhou took her to a window in the back kitchen, Qin Wuran was first shocked by this huge space. Sure enough, to be able to supply such a large restaurant, the kitchen must not be a small place, and Qin Wuran is really upset this time.

The little two who passed the dishes in front of him had to report from time to time, and after reporting the name of the dish in a slip, he put the list in his hand next to him, and naturally someone sorted it out, while the cooks were concentrating on the pot in their hands, and their eyes did not look elsewhere at all, and there were also people who helped the cook next to him to prepare everything, just waiting for the cook to give an order, and he could quickly hand the corresponding things to him.

The whole kitchen was in full swing, but so many people were in one place, and they were busy with different things, but they seemed to be in order everywhere, at least Qin Wuran had watched it for so long, and she had never seen anyone accidentally bump into others when she turned around, or hindered other people's movements.

"See? Everyone in our mountain and river restaurant is still far behind, and in the future, praise them in front of them, otherwise if you think you are good, it will be difficult to grow, and you should not be small After this, a group of people will be difficult to manage. ”

Qin Wuran nodded, and she had to say that her knowledge in this matter was indeed shallow, otherwise she would not have praised them for keeping the kitchen clean.

However, she also felt that appropriate encouragement was conducive to enhancing the relationship between the two parties, and she listened to Shen Linzhou's words and maintained some of her own opinions.

When I saw a pillar of incense outside, even if the people inside were curious about who Shen Linzhou was with him, they just glanced at it casually, and concentrated on what was in their hands, as if they could be distracted no matter what happened outside.

Qin Wuran felt a little ashamed when she looked at it, after all, she was not a person who could be very attentive, sometimes even if she was still frying vegetables in her hands, she couldn't help but look at it when there was a little movement outside.

So not only those long-term jobs, but also a lot of things to learn, even she herself has a lot of deficiencies, and Qin Wuran was also a little confused in her heart for a while.

Fortunately, Shen Linzhou didn't notice her thoughts, just reached out and rubbed her head, and then said: "We've seen the market too, you just have a number in your heart, don't care too much about what you see today." Let's go. ”

The things that these people do in the kitchen are almost the same, but they all seem to be busy and become a habit, so they will appear orderly, Qin Wuran knew that the mountain and river restaurants for a while and a half must not be like the Shen family restaurant, so she didn't continue to look at it.

It's just that she already has a general direction in mind.

That is, she must push the Shanhe restaurant to the same spirit as the Shen family restaurant, and let her grandfather see that she is also a person who can make a great cause.

has her own pride and ambition in her heart, and the momentum of Qin Wu's body seems to be a little enough, Shen Linzhou feels a little funny when he looks at her with her head held high, but he thinks she is more cute.

So he reached out and pinched a small face that she was deliberately holding solemnly, and it was soft and slippery, which was a little different from what he imagined, but it seemed to feel better.

Qin Wuran blushed a little because of his action, just like a little beast with teeth and claws, but she didn't grin and warn him not to move.

Shen Linzhou accepted it when he saw it, but the fingers behind his back twisted slightly, as if the residual warmth and touch were still in his hands.

"We have to go back to the Shen family, we went back a little earlier today, I guess there must be someone waiting at the gate of our yard, don't care, just hide behind me."

Shen Linzhou had already guessed that someone would definitely go over to say cool things today, and Qin Wuran also knew what he meant, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that there were many things in this big family, but he couldn't help but be a little curious about whether it was the Zhou family or the Yang family who would go today.

Sure enough, as the two of them expected, when the two of them just walked into the courtyard, they heard a chuckle from behind, so they followed the sound and saw Zhou, who had not seen him for several days, with a smile on his face, and Shi Shiran walked towards them.

"I heard that the shop I bought before Linzhou happened to open today, and I invited my friend to come over to talk about it, which is really gratifying. It's just that if you invite friends and don't invite people from your family to come over as guests, you can't erase this face, right? ”

The meaning of schadenfreude in Zhou's sentence is very obvious, Qin Wuran and Shen Linzhou are not fools, they can easily hear it, at this time, the former pouted and did not show it very obviously, but the latter just looked at her, as if waiting for the following.

Zhou was looked at by him like this, and he originally felt a little calm, and even a little happy in his heart. However, such a gaze was too obvious, so that she didn't know how to respond for a while, and even the smile on her face gradually became a little unnatural.

"What are you looking at me like that? Strange and cautious. Zhou finally couldn't hold his breath and asked.

Shen Linzhou replied to her at this time: "I thought that the third aunt would say something congratulatory, but I didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, there were only these cool words, which was really disappointing." ”

The expression on Zhou's face was a little unbearable all of a sudden, after all, judging from the relationship between the two courtyards, it was already incompatible, even if he really came to congratulate him, it was not necessarily not sincere. But Shen Linzhou mentioned it like this, so that she should not and can't, so she can only say a few words of joy against her will, which made Shen Linzhou a little satisfied.

"Then borrow the third aunt's auspicious words." He said that he was about to leave, and Zhou only felt as if he had been insulted, and he only felt angry.

"Stop me." Zhou had obviously forgotten about being threatened by Shen Jing'an before, and at this time, even if he knew that Shen Jing'an was not his opponent after cheering up, he still instinctively wanted to give Shen Linzhou a few colors.

"Do you really think you can make a big business by buying a shop outside? I can tell you, there is nothing so easy in this world, I heard that you even got ten tables together today, and I guess business is not very good. Linzhou might as well listen to the third aunt's advice, let's not want this shop if it's a big deal, and go back to the Shen family restaurant to help, why is it not good? ”

The Shen family restaurant was originally managed by Shen Jing'an, and after that, although Shen Linzhou went to help, and these two were father and son, Shen Linzhou was just a little experienced, and no one could say anything inappropriate.

However, now this Shen family restaurant is no longer in the hands of Shen Jing'an and his son, but the eldest son of the Zhou family, Shen Liao, who is not learned and has no skills, can only mess around, and the old lady has already mentioned his mistakes several times, and the Zhou family is estimated to be desperate to let Shen Linzhou help.

But although her abacus was loud, it couldn't help but make people feel a little whimsical, Shen Linzhou felt that Zhou's brain seemed to be bad, so he also turned to face her, and the mockery in his tone was not concealed at all.

"Our Shen family is such a big family, even if the family property is still a lot, there is always one person who can get the position of the next head of the family, so although we are relatives, we are also opponents. How can the third aunt conclude that I can help my eldest brother by going to someone's restaurant, instead of taking his place and sitting on it myself? ”

"After all, don't forget, third aunt, if it weren't for my mother's death, my father and son would have fallen into a downturn, the eldest brother wouldn't have been able to manage such a Shen family restaurant, and now my father has cheered up, and I have returned to the Shen family, maybe the old lady will remember it one day, and she will hand over the Sheng family restaurant to our father and son to take care of?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou's face became even more ugly.

It's really good that the eldest son can't support the wall in the mud, but all she can rely on is these two unsuccessful sons, so she thinks she helped them.

But she didn't think that her methods were too clumsy, and she wanted Shen Linzhou to help Shen Liao, but the former was not a person without ambition and strength, and even as long as he wanted to, the Shen family restaurant would not have Shen Liao's share at all.

So seeing her blue and red face, Shen Linzhou knew that she must have understood, and then smiled slightly and said: "Seeing that the third aunt is probably figured out like this, then I won't continue to say more, lest if I stimulate the third aunt, I will get the old lady to sue again, saying that I don't respect the elder." ”

"But the third aunt also has to remember that if you want the eldest brother to have a good time for another two years, you don't come to provoke me, otherwise I will have to plead with the old lady."

The old lady has always favored Shen Linzhou's grandson the most, but Shen Linzhou has been strong since he was a child, and he has never been willing to ask the old lady for anything, which is also a point that the old lady feels very sorry for.

The Zhou family has been in this family for twenty or thirty years, and if they are not completely familiar with the old lady's thoughts, they can at least guess seventy or eighty percent, so at this time, there is no doubt that as long as Shen Linzhou asks for something, the old lady will definitely give it and ask for it, and there will definitely be no hesitation.

So she almost bit her silver teeth, but in the end she couldn't help it, but she didn't dare to shout at the door, so she could only leave with heavy steps.

"Why don't you think they're angry at all?" Looking at the back of the man who left angrily, Shen Linzhou sighed lightly and even shook his head.

Qin Wuran, who witnessed the whole process on the side, only felt very happy, although she felt a little underwhelmed by Shen Linzhou's practice of obviously making people popular but not admitting it, but I have to say that she was also very happy to see the Zhou family return from defeat, so she patted Shen Linzhou's shoulder and said seriously: "It's only us who are broad-minded, don't worry about these things with them, and will be busy with ourselves in the future, so why bother with what they say?" ”

Shen Linzhou thought to himself that Qin Wuran was really not a broad-minded person, for example, when the two of them met before, they accidentally saw her bathing, and Qin Wuran remembered this matter for a long time, if it wasn't for the fact that he really helped her a lot later, I am afraid that the name of "Dengtuzi" would not be able to come down on his head.

But if you think about it carefully, you are not a broad-minded person, and if anyone provokes him, he will definitely not let it go.

So neither of the two has to say anyone, they both have the same grudge character.

"But I'm also a little curious, you said that your family has such a big property, how can you have your share, why did you still manage the family's business before, but now you have put down everything and started again?"

This is indeed what Qin Wuran has always puzzled.

After all, just looking at this person's family background, you know that even if he doesn't work hard in his life, he has thousands of family wealth for him to squander, not to mention that he is also a self-motivated person. But it's really strange to be such a proud son of the sky, but to let go of everything at his fingertips and start from the most basic things with peace of mind.

However, in the face of her question, Shen Linzhou really thought about it deeply, and then pulled the corners of his lips a little funny.

"In fact, my mind was very simple at the beginning, that is, my mother's death made me feel that none of the Shen family was a good person, so I would entrust all the power in my hands and not want to touch everything about the Shen family."

Qin Wuran had indeed heard some things about Shen's mother, but she didn't know enough details, let alone ask, just listened quietly on the side.

"But after I left the Shen family, I wandered outside for a while, and when I calmed down and thought back to what I had done, I felt a little naïve. It's just that the Shen family's business is inseparable from people for a while, after I leave, someone will naturally take my place, which is also one of the reasons why there will be no shortage of people in the big family, I thought to myself that it has reached such a point, why should I go back and annoy people? Simply with a little bit of broken jars, he was ready to buy a shop by himself, completely leaving the Shen family, wanting to see how far he could go. ”

"Is that still the idea of breaking the jar?" Qin Wuran couldn't help but interject and asked.

Shen Linzhou shook his head, "I think I can win a glory on my own, even if it is a small fight for the Shen family, it is a very happy thing for me." ”
