Chapter 9: The Secret of Digging People
"Lao Tzu learned from the king of chefs in the capital." The fat cook pointed his thumb at his nose with his backhand, looking proud.
He wouldn't betray Boss Mo easily, he just wanted to see what this young master of the An family wanted to do.
"Oh? I don't know the chef, are you interested in playing to the kitchen of my 'Anping Restaurant'? An Yize asked casually.
The fat cook refused without thinking about it: "Lao Tzu is not going." ”
"It's okay, one day you think clearly, come to Anfu to find me at any time. I can offer a salary of 100 taels. An Yize shook the folding fan lightly, and the confidence on his face was annoying.
He felt that money could solve everything, although the fat cook and the fat three were not his goal.
"Don't go!" The fat cook refused very simply, he knew how many catties and taels he had, and he also understood that only by following Mo Xiaoqi could he learn good cooking skills.
"That generation, I said hello to your Boss Mo, and said that I like to eat her dishes very much." After An Yize finished speaking, his eyes looked past the fat cook to the entrance of the back kitchen.
"Cheng, no problem, I'll definitely tell Boss Mo!" The fat cook's heart was straight-eyed, and he hadn't reacted to An Yize's trap.
Sure enough, the real chef is really that woman.
An Yize smiled slightly, slapped a gold ingot on the table, and then led his concubine Xiaohuan out of the gate.
"What's going on?" The fat cook, the second monk, was confused, he thought that Young Master An was going to take the opportunity to stir up trouble, but no one expected him to leave like this.
Zhao Hongyi and Mo Xiaoqi also came out.
"I can't see it, An Yize is quite generous." Zhao Hongyi took the gold ingot and stuffed it into Mo Xiaoqi's hand
"Hmph, what a generous. He just thought that sooner or later the money would return to him. Although Mo Xiaoqi said this, he was not idle in his hand, and put the gold ingots into his purse.
"That's just as well." Zhao Hongyi does not deny that this is indeed like An Yize's idea.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Hongyi, help me write a notice! I'd like to recruit two maids and three kitchen apprentices. As soon as Mo Xiaoqi finished saying this, another person came in the store.
That person was An Yize, who had gone and returned, and the entourage and concubine Xiaohuan behind him also followed.
"Lord Zhao, why are you here?" An Yize arched his hand.
"This official has come to see the child." Zhao Hongyi is now Shu'er's godfather, and it is natural for him to come to see the child.
"What to look at the children! I think it's clearly a pair of dogs and a man. Mo Xiaoqi, you are so shameless, you got married and gave birth to a baby, and you were bought by the young master and kicked out of the house. A broken shoe still dares to swagger around, and now he is trying to seduce the county magistrate. Concubine Xiaohuan pointed at Mo Xiaoqi's nose, her face full of disgust.
"Hmph, Lord Zhao, don't be deceived by these broken shoes. If you really marry into the door, you may be given a few green hats. ”
"Shut up!" Zhao Hongyi, who has always been mild-mannered, was angry, and it was this roar that shocked everyone present.
"Hey, Xiaohuan, don't talk nonsense about things without evidence. People Zhao and Mo Xiaoqi don't have any intimate movements, how can you say that people are dogs and men? An Yize is going down, obviously waiting to see Mo Xiaoqi's joke.
Zhao Hongyi just wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Mo Xiaoqi with his eyes.
"Young Master An, dare to ask you to go and come back, but just to humiliate me a few words?" Mo Xiaoqi's eyes did not have the slightest wave, and those insulting words went in and out of her ears.
"Young Master Ben forgot the fan here, and came back to get it." An Yize said, Xiaohuan had already taken the folding fan on the table and handed it to him.
An Yize turned around and was about to leave, but Mo Xiaoqi suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”
"Oh? What does Boss Mo have to advise? An Yize raised his eyebrows.
"There's nothing to advise, but I just want to tell you. The way you look is disgusting. Mo Xiaoqi was blunt.
An Yize was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Mo Xiaoqi to directly insult him, and his face was hung at that time.
Xiaohuan was about to open his mouth to give his young master a grievance. But he was gagged by Mo Xiaoqi's next words.
"And you, a maid, no, look at your dress, you are not even a maid anymore. Now at most, it's a piece of bedding for your young master, a bed warmer. ”
Mo Xiaoqi sneered and continued, "I, Mo Xiaoqi, act above board, and I don't have any intimate relationship with Lord Zhao. Even if there is, it is above board. He's not married, and I don't have a husband, so why can't we be together? ”
This is not enough strength, Mo Xiaoqi reached out and grabbed Zhao Hongyi's arm and said, "Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed that there is a wonderful man next to me." ”
"You! Shameless! Xiaohuan was embarrassed, stomped his feet, and couldn't say anything else, "You are a widow and you still run out to open a shop, you are not ashamed." Is there a little bit of shame. ”
"Am I shameless? How shameless am I? I supported myself and ran a business to support my children. What's there to be ashamed of? Mo Xiaoqi glanced at her, "It's you, a piece of bedding, do you still think you are the young lady of the An family?" ”
"You!" Xiaohuan didn't know what to say again, so he was so angry that he suddenly tilted his body and fainted.
But what is embarrassing is that An Yize did not immediately support her, but ordered the attendants to lift her up after she fell.
"Boss Mo, I'll go first. The concubines at home are not sensible, which annoys you. I'll talk about it another day, and besides, you're really good at cooking. An Yize's salty and non-salty words made Mo Xiaoqi vomit when he heard it.
"Xiaoqi, you're impulsive. If you humiliate him like this, he will surely send someone to find trouble. Zhao Hongyi frowned, very worried.
"Even if I don't humiliate him, he'll come looking for trouble. He's here today to make sure if it's me or not, the chef in the kitchen. Mo Xiaoqi tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't laugh in the end.
"That's right, even if you don't trouble him, the trouble will come to your door." Zhao Hongyi felt that he should send more catchers to patrol around here.
"Alright, let's not talk about that. Help me write a notice, Hongyi. Mo Xiaoqi breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.
Zhao Hongyi's words are strong and powerful, and there is an extraordinary bearing between the pen and the dragon.
This kind of bearing does not match his own approachable temperament.
The notice was quickly written and posted outside the store.
"You should be a calligrapher, and your writing is very charming, much more flavorful than yourself." Mo Xiaoqi praised.
"This is complimenting me for my good looks, but not people?" Zhao Hongyi raised his eyebrows, and there was some dissatisfaction in his tone.
Mo Xiaoqi was a little embarrassed: "No, no, the words are as beautiful as people." “
"You just told the truth?" Zhao Hongyi turned his head to stare at Mo Xiaoqi's face.
I saw her nodding like pounding garlic, and affirmed: "Really, it's more true than pearls." ”
"I mean what you said to An Yize." Zhao Hongyi smiled, but his eyes were breathtaking.
