After handing the recipe to Wang Chongguang, he did not shirk anything like ordinary people.

Holding the recipe and scanning it slightly, Wang Chongguang smiled honestly and said: "Brother, give me a grilled **! I've been in Lubei for so long, and I've never eaten an authentic Texas grilled chicken, let's try it!"

After saying this, Wang Chongguang handed the recipe to Zhao Shuihe next to him very interestingly.

Then, he smiled and said, "Meizi, how many dishes do you want to order? Today, August 14, everyone is happy!"

It is impossible for us not to hear the meaning of Wang Chongguang's words, so I also encouraged Shui He to say: "That's it, you can order some dishes, Ge Lingyao's miscellaneous vegetables here, maybe there are dishes from your hometown." ”

Listening to my words, Xiao Shuihe pouted and took the recipe, flipped it left and right a few times, and said casually: "Order three cups **! I used to want to eat it when I was in retreat in Shiqiao, but I don't know if what is made here is to my liking." ”

Zhao Shuihe's words, I naturally complied, but the "retreat" she mentioned made me very puzzled.

Surprised, I asked the waiter to order three cups of chicken, and asked Zhao Shuihe curiously: "Shuihe, what did you just say about retreat? What do you mean?!"

Hearing me ask, Zhao Shuihe told me expressionlessly: "Su Zi is a cook in our two ancestral halls, and when he is ten years old, there will be a selection to lock a person in a base in Shiqiao for special training......

"What is the content of the special training?" I wondered.

Listening to my curiosity, Zhao Shuihe shook his head and said: "I don't want to tell the secrets of the family, anyway, the intensity is quite high, and there are not one out of ten people who can stay." Although the rest of the people can continue to be cooks, it is impossible for them to enter the core of Su Zizuo for the rest of their lives. ”

"Damn!" I was surprised and curious: "Sister, what are you Su Zizuo in the Temple of the Two Ancestors doing? How can you be the same as the assassination organization on TV?

Listening to the question, Zhao Shuihe snorted coldly and told me: "Compared with those cruelties, my ancestors suffered more sins when they started their business, so they left a sentence, called 'Suffer hardship, only then can you become a master'!"

"Oh!" I nodded, listening to Mizuhe's words.

As I talked to Shuihe, Xiaomeizi couldn't sit still, she stretched out her hand, pushed my shoulder, and then whispered to me: "Don't ask, my brother was in a bad mood when he didn't come, you keep asking her about her hometown, is it appropriate?"

Listening to Meizi's words, my face turned red in a hurry, and then I nodded, and said to Shui He, who was like a deflated ball: "Which one...... Let's not talk about the past! Let's eat! By the way......"

As I spoke, I put my hand in my trouser pocket, then took out a small carefully sealed cardboard box, handed it to Zhao Shuihe, and then said: "Shuihe! Today is August 14, tomorrow is August 15, you have come to me for so long and helped me so much, so I want to thank you for this thing for you, just when you are the Mid-Autumn Festival today...... Welfare bar!"

While talking, I handed the small paper bag to Shui He and said, "Open it and take a look!"

I didn't know about buying things, so when she saw my package, she was very surprised, with a face full of curiosity and suspicion, Shui He took the carton, unpacked it, and opened the box.

Then, the little girl's expression was as I imagined, and she was stunned.

Immediately after, she took out a silver hairpin from inside, and asked me in a somewhat incredulous tone, "For me?"

I nodded.

The silver hairpin was bought from a jewelry store next to our store on Heihu Street when I closed the store, flat and wide, with the street scene of cranes and Jiangnan water towns painted on it, I don't know if the water lotus likes it or not, anyway, it's quite expensive, and in my eyes, it's also a ...... One and only.

Staring at this jewelry, I told Xiao Shuihe: "You usually only take a chopstick to pierce your head, although it is convenient, but it is really not good-looking, so I bought you a hairpin, usually on the street can be stinky and beautiful, and you can also defend yourself when you go home at night, I think it is good." ”

After I finished speaking, Xiao Shuihe smiled, with a trace of tears in her smile, and at the same time, she smiled the happiest and heartiest since she came to me.

Gently putting away the hairpin, Shui He told me, "Thank you! This is this life...... One of the most wanted gifts. ”

"What do you want most?" I was surprised, "Don't you have any jewelry?"

In this regard, Zhao Shuihe shook his head and said: "In our hometown, women are not allowed to bring jewelry indiscriminately, because it will affect the making of pastries and easily pollute the ingredients......

Zhao Shuihe's words, listening to my heart sour.

Because it made me feel that Mizuhe's home was not really a place for people, and living there was no different from living in a prison or barracks.

Maybe this is also the reason why Zhao Shuihe became a monk alone and ran thousands of miles from Huaiyang to Lubei......

When Shui He smiled and put away the hairpin, the shopkeeper Tong, who had to follow us to eat and drink, also smiled.

The old shopkeeper put down the wine glass, and shouted at me with a slightly red face: "Boss Huo! You robbed me! I also want to give a gift of water lotus, but I didn't expect you to take the lead." ”

Listening to the words of the shopkeeper Tong, I was curious: "Oh! The iron hedgehog is going to pluck its hair, huh? What kind of gift do you have? Take it out for everyone to see?"

Listening to my coaxing, the old shopkeeper nodded, took out an old small book from his trouser pocket, and then handed it to Shui He.

Immediately afterwards, the old shopkeeper told Shui He: "Shui He, this is an antique secret book! It is a treasure book written by a eunuch in Ouchi! You should put it away and study it carefully!"

Listening to the old shopkeeper's words, all of us widened our eyes, and at the same time asked the old shopkeeper, "Sunflower Treasure Book?"

"Phew! a dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth!" The shopkeeper Tong glanced at me, and then explained in detail: "The author of this treasure book is a eunuch beside Cixi, who pours foot washing water for Cixi all the year round, and is deeply appreciated by Lafayette, and his foot-washing skills are even more first-class......

Between the words, the shopkeeper Tong put on an admiring expression and said: "Later, after he left the palace, he compiled this book of foot soaking according to his experience of serving Lafayette......

Seeing that the shopkeeper Tong's words were getting more and more deviant, I hurriedly interrupted: "Okay! Got it! You have received some kindness, now let's eat! I don't want your money for free!"

With my words, this dinner on August 14 gradually entered the state in an atmosphere of unity and love, and then I made up a few dishes, and everyone ate until about half past eight in the evening, when my chef Wang Chongguang finally couldn't sit still.
