After they all left, this restaurant is just me, Jordan, Xiaolan and the three, this Jordan is a middle-aged man in his thirties, looking at the tall and honest people, I said to him: "Brother Jordan, you are Brother Jin's person, since he left you, he must value you very much, this restaurant needs people to live here for a long time in the future, I don't know if it is convenient for you?" If it is impossible for Rong to agree to me living here, the restaurant must have a reliable person to watch, Jotun is the most suitable, Jotun replied: "Listen to the son's orders", I asked again: "Are you familiar with the capital?" Jotun smiled: "Of course, there is no place in this Beijing city that I don't know about Jotun", I said: "That's good, in this way, I will also give you a day off today, go back and pack your things, and you will live here from tomorrow!" I'll give you the key, come early tomorrow", I put a sign in front of the store that said "closed for rectification", locked the door, handed over the key to Jordan and left with Xiaolan, I also gave myself a holiday today, because I will be busy from tomorrow.
When I got home, I was just in time for Rong Yao to leave, and when I saw me go home, I turned back again, Aunt Xiao brought tea, came to my side and whispered: "Girl, you opened a store, tell the young master!" , After speaking, he went down, Xiaolan and Qingtong also retreated, and suddenly there were only me and Rong Ruo in this living room, I looked at Rong Ruo, I saw him for the first time since I was killed, he was still so gentle and elegant, he picked up the teacup and handed it to me: "Is it cold?" See your nose is frozen red, drink some hot tea to warm up your body", I took the tea in my hand but the circles of my eyes were red, he came these few times I was not there, the first thing I said when I saw me was not to ask what I was doing, but to care about whether I was cold or not, so I was so moved, I choked up and said: "Not cold", Rong Ruo saw me crying and asked nervously: "Silly girl, why are you crying, is it uncomfortable?" , Hearing him ask, my tears fell more and more uncontrollably, he hurriedly took a handkerchief to me, and I didn't know what to do, just looked at me blankly, I looked at Rong Ruo's cute appearance and couldn't help laughing again, and said: "I'm fine, Rong Ruo, you sit down, I have something to tell you", when Rong Ruo sat down, I took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Rong Ruo, I, I have a shop, I want to do some business" Rong Ruo asked: "Pan shop?" Where is it? What business is Qingqiu going to do? I told Rong Ruo how to find it, how to deal with it, and what happened today, and Rong Ruo was silent thoughtfully for a while before saying: "Qingqiu, do what you want to do!" It's just that you don't have to do everything yourself, don't be tired." I said happily: "Thank you Rong Ruo, I know, by the way, Rong Ruo, I don't need the two shops you gave me, you better take it back!" As he spoke, he took out two thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms and put them on the table and said: "This is the two thousand taels of silver tickets that I asked Aunt Xiao to take yesterday, and you can bring them back with you, I can support myself in the future", Rong Ruo picked up the silver ticket and looked at it and stuffed it into my hand and said: "You keep this silver ticket in case you need it, as for the store, I will let someone take care of it for you first, and you can concentrate on doing what you want to do."
I won't say anything more, I'll keep this silver ticket first, and I'll talk about it when I have a chance later! I asked Rong Ruo, "Rong Ruo, are you doing anything today?" , Rong Ruo said: "It's nothing, what's wrong?" I smiled and said, "Let's stay and eat!" Good no good? Today I am a chef, please eat hot pot", Rong Ruo smiled dotingly: "Okay! It's been a long time since I've eaten Qingqiu's dishes! I said: "You drink tea here, I'll go to the kitchen to see what's there", came to the kitchen to see all kinds of dried vegetables, and mountain goods and game (this is Rong Ruo usually sent over) seasonings are only a few common things, now there are about ten o'clock less than eleven o'clock I decided to go out to buy, I first let Xiaolan soak the dried vegetables and wild mountain mushrooms, Xiao Auntie stewed the chicken, because the game is smoked, let Xiao Auntie put it on the cage to steam, and then returned to the living room to tell Rong Ruo that I want to go out to buy something, Rong Ruo has to go with me, Qingtong helped light the fire in the kitchen, and Rong Ruo and I went out to the market to buy vegetables.
Out of the door from my residence not far from a vegetable market, did not go long after a while we arrived, the market is sparse, not a lot of people, although the weather is still very cold, but the market also has out-of-season vegetables, are some green leafy greens are not much, I and Rong Ruo turned around, also bought a lot, there are spinach, coriander, rape, cabbage at home, I even saw cucumbers also bought some, into several dry goods stores did not have the pepper and pepper I wanted, not nothing, It's not the kind of hemp that is not produced in Sichuan, there is no way to ask for some first, and the store has to find a way, looking at Rong Ruo's curiosity about everything, he laughed secretly in his heart This is probably the first time Rong Ruo has entered the vegetable market to buy vegetables in his life! What a life! It's just that you have to try everything.
When Rong Ruo and I returned home, Aunt Xiao and Xiaolan did everything I had confessed, I gave them the vegetables to choose, and then prepared to fry the hot pot base, after the base was fried, I put the stewed chicken and soup and meat of Aunt Xiao into the red copper hot pot with good carbon, put some of the base material in, and let Qingtong bring it to the living room, and then put Xiaolan's soaked dried vegetables and wild mountain mushrooms on a plate, and slice the steamed bacon on a plate, and the beef and mutton I just bought were also cut into thin slices, but my knife skills are not good, and the cut is too thick, Aunt Xiao washed the dishes and saw that I cut so hard here, so I asked for the knife over, I told the lady to cut thin slices, the thinner the better, I didn't expect the lady to cut really well, comparable to the chef of the star hotel, and so all the dishes are served on the table, my stomach has been rumbling, I used to like to eat hot pot, I think a group of people around the crowd is very lively, I feel that the distance between people is very close, and I especially like the feeling of eating hot pot in summer while eating and sweating.
Rong Ruo Manchu should like to eat hot pot, I brought the prepared ingredients over to Rong Ruo and said, "Okay, Rong Ruo, let's eat!" Rong Ruo sat down and asked me, "Qingqiu still makes hot pot?" I said mischievously: "Of course, I don't know if you eat spicy or not, I didn't dare to put so many chili peppers, you can taste it quickly", said and gave Rong Ruo some chicken in the bowl of noodles, Rong Ruo took a bite and praised: "Well, it's delicious, Qingqiu, you can eat it!" Don't worry about me", I put mushrooms, fungus, and mushrooms into some and sat down to eat, I let Aunt Xiao they all use the meal, no need to serve us, I eat a meal is sweaty, this winter to eat hot pot is the most cold, after eating Rong want to go, said that I was afraid of disturbing my lunch break, was stopped by me, this sweat out and then the cold wind to flutter is not good, there is still the sun in the morning, the sky changes when eating, now it is even more gloomy, afraid of snow, sure enough, not much for a while, The sky was sprinkled with snow, and Xiaolan brought tea in and said, "Sister, it's snowing!" I said, "Let's go! It's good that it's raining heavily, and the people are looking forward to a heavy snowfall! Xiaolan put down the tea and withdrew, Rong Ruo looked at me and said, "Yes! It's good to get bigger. ”
I poured a cup of tea for Rong Ruo and asked, "Rong Ruo, what is your dream?" , Rong Ruo took the tea and was silent for a while before slowly saying, "Dream? What is my dream...... and what is it? I said, "That's what you want to do the most!" I even dreamed about it. Rong Ruo lowered his head and took a sip of tea and said, "That's it?" What about Qingqiu? What are your dreams? I sat down and replied, "My dream when I was a kid was to be a soldier, and I thought girls in military uniforms were cool, and they were bigger!" I just want to be a star, I can make a lot of money, I can wear beautiful dresses, and now my dream is still to make a lot of money, and then I can go around and play in the mountains and rivers, how chic! Rong Ruoxiao asked, "Can you take me?" I turned my head to look at Rong Ruo and smiled, "Yes!" However, I take you, you have to bring silver" Rong Ruo smiled: "Okay!" I asked, "Rongruo, where do you want to go the most?" Rong Ruo said: "Jiangnan, what about you?" Where do you want to go? I thought about it and said: "I want to go to the grassland the most", I originally went to the grassland to travel, and I came here before I had a good time, the Inner Mongolia prairie of the Qing Dynasty has not yet desertified, it must be very beautiful, "we will go to the grassland first, and then go to the south of the Yangtze River, and then travel all over the north and south of the river, whether the three mountains and five mountains are good", Rong Ruo smiled: "Good".
Not only does the snow not stop the rhythm but is getting bigger and bigger, there is already snow in the yard, Rong Ruo called Qingtong to prepare the carriage to prepare for going back, I said: "It's good to go back early, lest it will be dark and the road is slippery for a while, and it is not good to drive", Qingtong went out not long before he came back and returned to the door: "Young master, the carriage is broken, and it is being repaired!" Rong Ruo said: "Okay, I know, you go and see when it can be repaired", Qingtong went out again, I asked Xiaolan to change the tea again, and added some carbon to the stove and smiled at Rong Ruo: "The wind and snow stay in the guest sky, you can sit for a while!" After a while, Qingtong said back and forth that the car was repaired, and Rong Ruo instructed me: "Don't be too tired, pay attention to your body, I'll come over if I'm fine, and let Aunt Xiao find me if you have something, you know?" I stuffed the hand warmer into Rong Ruo's hand and smiled: "Got it, let's go!" It will be dark in a moment".
After sending Rong Ruo away, I went back to the house to put the window up to see the snow, the goose feather snow sprinkled non-stop, the cold wind with snowflakes poured in from the window, I shivered in the cold, I quickly put the window down, I used to go to school in Guangdong for a few years, at that time I especially missed the hometown of the four seasons, the warm breeze in spring, the heat of summer, the coolness of autumn and the biting cold of winter, unlike the four seasons in the south are not very distinct, when the weather is humid, after dinner, I let Xiaolan rest early, Come with me to the store tomorrow morning.
