Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Helper
In Shu Nuan's action, he quickly put the last dish on the pot, bent down and scooped a scoop of water into the hot pot, and then turned his head to look at Li Juanjuan beside him.
At this time, the other party was lifting the lid of the pot and checking the chicken stewed in the pot.
Shu Nuan looked at the other party quietly for a few seconds, and then asked out loud, "How is it?" Is it cooked? ”
"Almost."
Li Juanjuan replied softly.
Shu Nuan nodded lightly, took the dishes on the stove, and said in a low voice: "Okay, just put it up, I'll take the dishes out first." ”
It's still bright, but it's not too early.
Li Juanjuan bowed: "Okay, I'll be here soon." ”
Shu Nuan got the other party's response, and went out of the kitchen directly with the dishes.
Today's dishes are mainly spicy, and the smell is pungent, but it is very fragrant.
When Shu Nuan came out with the dishes, Shu Hao had already placed the tables and stools in the relatively open courtyard.
Seeing this, Shu Nuan hooked the corners of her mouth slightly.
Shu Hao saw her come out and walked over quickly: "What did you do today, so fragrant?" ”
"That's all ......"
Shu Nuan answered the other party's question with a smile, and slowly put the plate in his hand on the table.
When the dishes were served one after another, the three of them sat around the table.
"Okay, let's see if the food I made tastes good for you?"
With a shallow smile in Shu Nuan's eyes, he said softly to the two people beside him
Shu Hao looked at the dinner table and said in surprise: "It's so rich!" ”
"Eat the vegetables and eat the vegetables."
After Shu Nuan greeted again, the other two began to move their chopsticks one after another.
The spicy incense pot has the most pungent fragrance and the most mouth-watering fragrance.
When Shu Nuan was making this dish, because of the ingredients, he could only make a simple version, but the taste was good, which can be seen from the actions of the other two people who frequently stretched out their chopsticks.
At the dinner table, the conversation box of the three suddenly opened and began to chat.
Meal.
It was getting dark, and the air was getting cooler.
When Shu Nuan and Li Juanjuan were cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Shu Hao suddenly remembered that he used cold water to ice the big watermelon next to the well.
"By the way, the watermelon is still chilled over there, I'll go get it now."
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and get a knife to cut the melon."
Shu Nuan chuckled and nodded, and entered the kitchen with the dishes and chopsticks.
Li Juanjuan took the apron hanging aside, took the initiative to wrap it around her waist, and turned her head to Shu Nuan and said, "You go and rest for a while, I'll wash the dishes." ”
Shu Nuan saw that the other party had begun to be busy, and replied with a smile: "Okay, if there is something to call me, it will be done." ”
"Well, go ahead."
Li Juanjuan didn't reply without replying, and continued to clean the dishes and chopsticks.
And Shu Nuan put away the rest of the meal and put it in the cupboard next to it.
This wooden bowl and chopsticks are placed in the corner of the wall in the shade, so they will not be exposed to the sun, and it has a good storage effect.
Shu Nuan cleaned up the kitchen briefly, then took a clean knife and walked out of the door.
At this moment, Shu Hao was standing at the table, pressing a big round watermelon under his hands.
When Shu Hao saw her, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Come, give me the knife." ”
"Click......"
With a crisp sound, the knife edge touched the green and faint skin of the watermelon, and it suddenly exploded.
"The skin is quite thin."
After Shu Hao sighed, he quickly cut half of it into pieces, and the other half was put aside without moving.
After Li Juanjuan washed the dishes and came out, the three of them sat together, taking advantage of the evening breeze, eating melons and chatting.
Shu Hao wiped the watermelon juice from the corner of his mouth, and turned his head to look at Shu Nuan beside him: "Nuan Nuan, your store is about to open, and the small stalls at the farmers' market will not be placed, right?" ”
Shu Nuan was staring at the stars in the sky in a daze, and suddenly heard Shu Hao's inquiry, paused slightly, and then slowly answered the other party's question.
"Master Zhang said that the renovation will be completed tomorrow, but I think the newly renovated house still needs to be ventilated, and the opening of the store will have to be postponed for another two days. As for the stalls, I'm going to set them up for two more days, just in time to inform my regular customers about the opening of the new store. ”
In the case of having to do everything yourself, you can always find that there are many places that you are not prepared for, and the opening of the store is also delayed again and again. However, there is no way to do this, and if you don't prepare in advance, it will be even more troublesome to deal with it afterwards.
Shu Hao never interfered with her decision, so naturally he wouldn't say anything.
"Okay, you make up your own mind, if you need help, remember to let me know."
"Thank you...... Then I will invite you to dinner. ”
Shu Nuan knew that no matter how much she said thank you, it was useless, and the other party would not accept the expensive gifts she sent, but she would never refuse her invitation to dinner.
Shu Hao listened to her proposal, and really showed a light smile: "Okay, I'll wait." ”
Li Juanjuan, who originally planned to go home tomorrow, suddenly changed her mind after hearing the conversation between the two people next to her.
"Nuan Nuan, why don't I stay here for the next two days to help you deal with this matter?"
When Shu Nuan heard this, she smiled: "Okay, then I'll trouble you." ”
It's not much to talk about opening a store, but it's quite cumbersome to deal with, and with someone to help, she can also find time to do her own thing.
After all, whatever you want to sell after opening the store, the recipe of the dishes, all need to go through her hands.
In the following time, the three of them slowly sorted out the follow-up arrangements.
With the help of the other two, Shu Nuan's pressure dropped sharply.
The next day, Shu Nuan set up a stall as usual in the morning, and by the way, he told the customers who came to buy things that he was about to open a store.
And the aunts who often come to her to buy things nearby are very enthusiastic to ask her for detailed information, which once caused her to be tightly blocked in front of this small stall.
At noon, she naturally closed the stall early, and in the afternoon she went to the bank and withdrew money to Master Zhang to settle the project payment.
After the decoration of the store was completed, there were all kinds of small bits and pieces of small objects, which she also needed to buy in the market by herself.
Because she wasn't sure what the style would be after the renovation was completed, she just inquired in advance where to buy it, but didn't buy it.
But now with Li Juanjuan's help, these small things are much easier to deal with.
When Li Juanjuan decided to stay and help, she called home the next day to go back, and it was also the afternoon of the next day, Shu Daniu specially sent a quilt and clothes over.
Shu Nuan originally wanted to leave Brother Niu for a meal, but the other party was in a hurry to go back to patrol the mountain, so he had to make an appointment next time.
After Shu Nuan didn't go to the farmers' market to set up a stall, he retired the stall there. And Sister Hu, who was very talkative, didn't say much, just said a few words of encouragement to her, and helped with the formalities.
Everything was going in a good direction, and soon it was time for the store to open.
