Chapter 135: The temple fair is going to see the lanterns
As the sun sets, red light shines on the streets, illuminating the stalls and umbrellas. And people roam in front of the stalls, holding no less than three kinds of food in their hands. The restaurant opposite also took out the chef's best vegetarian food, set up a stall at the door, and solicited customers on the street.
The festival lasts until midnight. Pilgrims go to the temple on the outskirts of the city early in the morning to offer incense, and now, it is a paradise for young people.
I changed into the new clothes I had made at the tailor's shop, took Han's hand, and walked slowly down the street.
I thought I would be so excited about the shops on the street that I was running around, but when I actually got to the crowded street and walked along the flow of people, I felt a little bit of peace in life.
Anyway, Han was led by me, and we walked slowly, and we could always reach the end of the road.
There were people selling peach blossom cakes at the street stalls, and many passers-by ate them very deliciously, which made my appetite move. pulled Han to line up for a long time, but when he arrived, he found that it was the horse cook in the Qinglou who kneaded the dough behind the stall.
The little guy guessed correctly, Chef Ma really secretly sold cakes outside to make money.
Thinking of this, I subconsciously let go of Han's hand and took a step back to stand behind him. My current identity is his maid, and I shouldn't be so swaggering to pull him shopping. Although many people guessed that we were not "brothers and sisters", in front of the Qinglou people, I still wanted to disguise it a little.
Chef Ma glanced at us with his dark eyes: "Yo, the two of you came out to visit the temple fair?" ”
I bowed my head behind Han and was silent.
Han: "yes. ”
Cook Ma looked at the various snacks in Han's hand and said, "The first time I saw the maid walking in front of the little man, and pulling him to buy this and that." ”
I silently took the snack and resumed my identity as a maid.
Han smiled: "We have a new boss, and she gives me a day off." ”
Chef Ma: "What are you talking about?" ”
Changing the boss is also a trade secret, and it is generally not managed well that you choose to hand it over to a more capable person. Liu Jia has obviously been doing business here for many years, and he could have taken it down when the business of Qinglou was in a downturn, so it was in line with the logic of the businessman. And now, the business of the Qinglou is booming, and she bought this stall at this time, and no one knows what she wants.
When Cook Ma heard this, he rubbed the flour in his hand in a panic: "What did you say?" Isn't that old thing an old bustard? This is impossible, she also said that she was born as a person from Huancui Building, and she will dig a grave in the backyard after death! ”
"Hurry up, buy a cake and swallow it slowly!" Someone in the back of the line urged impatiently.
Chef Ma hurriedly mixed the flour of the peach blossom cake, put it in an iron mold and baked it, and then quickly put it into a paper bag. He gave us two pieces of peach blossom cakes, and while working, he pulled us to continue talking: "Don't leave yet, the matter has not been clarified." The new boss takes over, will the old man be fired? If she hears that I am selling peach blossom cakes here......"
Han: "It's going to be fine. If you are interrogated, you will say that the old bustard has verbally agreed to sell bread, and you will naturally be able to excuse yourself. ”
Chef Ma was grateful: "Childe said it wonderfully! ”
We left the horse cook's shop, returned to the crowd and walked down to the temple on the outskirts.
I was puzzled: "Why is Chef Ma so uneasy?" Today is a vacation, and there are no customers in the restaurant, why can't he come out to sell cakes? ”
