Chapter 128: Treachery Must Live
"What do you say about these things?!"
Wei Shen opened his mouth, unable to speak, his face was bitter as if he was about to wring out bitter juice.
How could he have stolen any of these things?
Shopkeeper Tang covered his head beside him, "I really can't imagine that I, Tang, am blind and recruit such a cook for Shixianglou!" If this is known to the owner, where will I put my old face! He said, hating Wei Shen, "Your family was difficult back then, such a big thing, who helped you get through?!" ”
At the mention of the events of that year, Wei Shen trembled.
Back then, Shixianglou had just settled in Anqiu County and wanted to poach him to be a chef. He flatly refused.
The old owner of Song's restaurant, Mr. Song, is his master. The master selected him from the young men who worked back then, not only because he had a certain talent in cooking, and that the first-class tofu he made was a few points better than everyone else, but also because he was honest and did not cause trouble.
At that time, Yipin tofu was the signature dish of the Song family, the signature dish of a family restaurant, which was passed down from generation to generation by blood, but the master's son Song Biao was useless and had no spirituality at all, and his grandson Song Liangxing was young and had to be handed over to him.
As long as he is on the top for ten years, he can pass on his skills to Song Liangxing.
The master promised him the dry shares of the Song family, which was impossible for many people to get. When he heard that Master was like this, he couldn't believe it.
The master patted his hand and said, "Shen'er, Master believes in you, I believe that you can keep the signboard of the Song Restaurant, and you can teach the grain well!" ”
He knelt on the ground and said that he would definitely be able to do it, so when Shixianglou first appeared to poach him away, he didn't even think about it and refused.
Next, Shopkeeper Tang came twice more and promised gold and silver shares, but he still refused.
It's just that he didn't expect the change to come so quickly.
The master went not long after, and before the filial piety period was over, his own old father also fell ill. My father is an old farmer who farms the land, and his body has always been strong, how could he suddenly get sick?
Wei Shen took care of the collapsed Song Restaurant, and on the other hand, he took care of the old father's body, not wanting that at this time, his son would make a big incident!
That bastard didn't know how to get drunk, and hit the old man next door, and it was nothing, and I didn't want the old man to start vomiting blood the next day, so I looked for a doctor, and it actually broke the inside!
The neighbor came to ask for money, if the person died, the money was indispensable, and now the person is not dead, but he is bedridden, and he has to eat ginseng every day to nourish his qi, Wei Shen took out the money again and again, and he couldn't even take care of his father's medicine money.
After the death of the master, the Song restaurant was completely indefinite to resist the suppression of the Shixiang Building, and the income was getting less and less day by day.
And Wei Shen no longer has a fixed monthly money like a chef because he has dry shares, and the situation of Song's restaurant is not good, and he can't open his mouth to ask the Song family father and son for money.
At this time, the shopkeeper Tang came over and asked him if he wanted to come to Shixiang Building.
Wei Shen's answer was naturally no, but the shopkeeper Tang told him not to speak in a hurry, "Think about your father's illness, and then think about the illness of the old man that your son broke down, and then answer me after thinking about it." ”
One disease is a disaster from the sky, can two diseases be man-made at all?! It's even more wrong at such a coincidental time!
Wei Shen finally understood, and looked at the shopkeeper Tang and shook his hands.
Shopkeeper Tang slowed down his voice and said to him, "You listen to me, follow our Shixianglou, I promise you a lot of money, no less than the Song family's dry shares!" You're an honest man, but an honest man has to eat! You're so difficult, did the Song family help you? Isn't it a restaurant that takes care of their family? Old Man Song's move was originally to repay the favor, and you have been supporting their family for a long time! It's time to move the nest! Is your surname Wei or not Song, and when you teach his little grandson, is your skill still valuable?! You are different from me, Shixianglou is dependent on you! ”
Wei Shen didn't listen to these words, but he was afraid, afraid that if he didn't agree, there would be another patient number by his side to make money.
Shixianglou has such a plan, he and Song's Restaurant can't do it, it's better to go with it.
If you turn your back on your teacher and betray your trust, you have to live, don't you?
......
Shopkeeper Tang is still talking about the events of the year.
"How did I invite you here? I promised you a lot of money and hired you to come over! Now it's just that your skills are not good, and you are compared to others, you don't want to hone your cooking skills, but do this kind of stealing and touching dogs! ”
Shopkeeper Tang said this, "How can Shixianglou keep you?!" ”
Wei Shen raised his head violently, he looked at the shopkeeper Tang, and the corner of his eyes swept over Liu's account.
So the cunning rabbit died, the lackeys cooked, and Shixianglou finally stretched out his feet and wanted to kick him out?
He was a little clear in his heart, but also a little numb, he leaned down to collect his scattered baggage, the two pieces of meat wrapped in lotus leaves and the shining silver bars, which he carefully placed aside.
"These are not my ......" He couldn't help but defend himself, and was interrupted by Liu Shufang before he finished speaking.
"Shixianglou has always been kind to people! I think you'd better get together in the same building today! There's no need to get into trouble to the point of being an official! Boring! ”
Wei Shen was stunned when he heard this, and then saw that the shopkeeper Tang snorted heavily, turned around and left, and the young men also ran away, but he couldn't say what he wanted to justify.
There was only Liu Accounts left in the courtyard, and Liu Accounts looked at him for a while, "You go, Shixianglou will have nothing to do with you in the future!" Where to go! ”
Even Liu's account room has to leave.
Everything came too fast, Wei Shen couldn't hold back in the end, and took a diagonal step to block the way of Liu Shufang, "I, I'm leaving, what should I do with a product of tofu?" ”
Liu Shufang laughed directly, "No one can make tofu without you?" ”
Wei Shen thought of the clever young man sent to him by the shopkeeper Tang before, and listened to Liu's account room again: "A single cup of tofu in Song's restaurant can be sold for a year, so it can be seen that without you, it will be the same!" ”
After saying this, Liu Shufang rubbed his shoulders and walked past Wei Shen. Wei Shen was knocked by him and staggered a step, and the burden almost fell.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly, looked down at the green bricks on the ground, his nose was a little sour, his eyes were a little hot, and his back couldn't stand up because of the burden, so he opened the back door and left.
When he came home like this, his wife was startled, and Wei Shen didn't want to say more, but his wife started crying.
"My father-in-law is gone, the old man of that family is still alive, you have raised him for so many years, and he has always kept this breath when he lies on the bed. But now that you've lost your job, how can we continue to pay for it?! ”
Wei Shen didn't know if it was a bottomless pit or a bottomless pit that had to be filled, but what could he do now?
The son in the family is not motivated, and there was originally a shopkeeper Tang who arranged to do the work, but later he was punished for a mistake, and now he is only mixed at home.
The family eats, drinks, and chews all on his own, and now he has lost his job, and he has no income.
"Ming'er, I'll go to the restaurant next to me and ask." Wei Shen said in a low voice.
"How can there be a restaurant next to it to make money now? If it were you, it would be nice to be still in the Song family! ”
Wei Shen was stunned and lowered his head.
