Chapter 75: Family History
Wen Tingjun smiled, "It's hard for you to keep remembering the business in the store." Let's go, go to the back kitchen, Zhang Da and they are waiting for your guidance. ”
Putting the account books into the cabinet, Wen Tingjun walked out from behind the counter and picked up the curtain leading to the back kitchen for her.
When she followed Wen Tingjun to the kitchen, Zhang Da and the others were very busy.
"Master, you're here. Master, you go to the tea room next to you and sit down for a while, and then I'll come to you when I'm done frying the remaining two dishes. ”
Qiao Jinyu didn't want to smoke in the kitchen for nothing, so she went to the tea room first.
Wen Tingjun is a person with a refined life.
In addition to the previous account books of the restaurant, the tearoom also contains many literary classics and miscellaneous records that reflect the various livelihoods of people in various places.
In the middle of the tea room, a table is placed in a regular manner.
On the table was a pot of flowers that Qiao Jinyu couldn't name, and a set of tea sets that looked some years old.
The material of the tea set should be the best purple sand, and it is the best way to make tea.
At this moment, the small tea stove on the table is boiling hot water, and the hot air is steaming out.
In this increasingly cold season, it makes people's hearts feel warm to watch.
"Sit down, what tea would you like to drink?"
Wen Tingjun's voice was warm, like mellow and sweet green tea, which swept away a lot of the dryness in Qiao Jinyu's heart due to his busy days.
She sat down as she said and smiled lightly.
"Whatever, I don't have much research on tea, and I can't taste good or bad."
Wen Tingjun smiled, took some tea leaves from the tea jar in the middle and put them into the tea cup.
Then wrap the handle of the teapot with a brocade handkerchief, lift the teapot and pour the hot water into the teacup.
Qiao Jinyu saw that his posture of making tea was so elegant and pleasant, and couldn't help but say: "Actually, I'm curious, what did Gongzi Wen do before, why did he come to Xinyang City?" ”
Steward Zhao, who was hanging outside the tea room, couldn't help but quietly prick up his ears when he heard this.
Since Zhao Kuo gave the order, whenever he was free, he was responsible for transporting Qiao Jinyu to and from the restaurant.
Wen Tingjun calmly put the tea bowl filled with tea soup in front of Qiao Jinyu, and then poured a bowl himself and took a shallow sip.
He seemed to be very satisfied with the tea he had made, and his eyebrows showed a refreshing demeanor.
Then he put down the tea bowl and smiled at Qiao Jinyu, his eyes were soft like a spring breeze.
"What do you think I do?"
Qiao Jinyu's heart trembled when she saw his eyes, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
Suppressing the strangeness in her heart, Qiao Jinyu blinked, looked Wen Tingjun up and down, and pretended to be serious: "I see, your family is either rich or expensive, your father is either a big official, or a big business, and his family is as rich as the country." ”
"As for you, you should be the youngest son who is very favored in the family, relying on his father's favor and lawlessness, he dared to run a restaurant in such a remote place as Xinyang City, and he also ran the restaurant so bleakly."
Wen Tingjun was amused by her words, "Your words are only half right. ”
Qiao Jinyu raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Which half is right? ”
"My father is indeed an official, but he is a petty official who is not worth mentioning, far inferior to General Zhao's rank. As for me......"
seemed to remember some unhappy past, Wen Tingjun's face was as smooth as jade, and his smile was a little lighter than before.
"It's not favored at home. My father has many wives and concubines, and many children, my mother does not have any weight in his heart, and I have no weight in his heart. ”
Qiao Jinyu was stunned.
Did she accidentally arouse other people's sadness?
What a sin, a sin.
She shouldn't have been curious about other people's family backgrounds.
But if you say this, it is equivalent to spilling water, and you can't get it back.
What to do?
