Chapter 383: Transaction
Gao Dian received the news of Wei Lianzhang's death at night, he had just returned from work, and when he was washing up and preparing to go to bed, he received a call from Wei Qiaoyi.
She cried and told Gao Dian the news of Old Man Wei's death.
When Gao Dian rushed to the hospital, there was no one left, only Wei Qiaoyi was in the ward, silently packing up his things.
"Teacher...... Let's go? Gao Dian asked.
Wei Qiaoyi raised her head, her eyes were red, she didn't speak, just nodded slightly.
Gao Dian also fell silent, he was already mentally prepared, but when he learned the news of the teacher's death, he still felt sad.
After Wei Qiaoyi packed up her things, Gao Dian said, "I'll send you back." ”
Wei Qiaoyi nodded and said nothing.
Coming to the outside of the hospital, Gao Dian asked, "Where are you going back?" ”
"Just go back to where I live." Wei Qiaoyi said.
She had been tired in the hospital for several days, and with grief, her mental state had reached her limit, and now she just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
"Okay." Gao Dian responded.
Sending Wei Qiaoyi to her house, when Wei Lianzhang was about to leave, Wei Qiaoyi suddenly said, "Can you not go?" I...... One is afraid. ”
Gao Dian was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You go and rest, I won't leave." ”
Wei Qiaoyi nodded.
At night, Gao Dian slept on the sofa in Wei Qiaoyi's living room, in fact, she still had a room here, but the bed was not made, and Gao Dian was too lazy to get it, so she simply slept on the sofa.
Wei Qiaoyi slept in the room, and Gao Dian didn't bother.
Soon, the night passed.
In the morning, Gao Dian got up, made some breakfast for Wei Qiaoyi, and then went to work.
Dianxinlou can't leave people casually, otherwise it is easy to have problems.
Wei Qiaoyi slept until late and got up, she walked into the living room and found that Gao Dian had left, she felt a little hungry and came to the kitchen, and found that Gao Dian had made breakfast.
………………
At the funeral, Gao Dian came to attend and deliberately locked up the Dianxin Building.
He found that many people came, some Gao Dian knew, and some Gao Dian didn't.
He's just the inconspicuous one of them.
Looking at the black-and-white photos, Gao Dian sighed slightly in his heart, and ...... in the future I will never see my teacher again.
Wei Qiaoyi's family stood there and bowed to the guests who came to attend the funeral.
…………
A few days after the funeral.
Wei Qiaoyi finally came to work in Dianxin Building, her state was much better, and she was not so sad.
When Wei Qiaoyi came back, Gao Dian's position as the head chef naturally gave up.
During the afternoon break, Wei Qiaoyi called Gao Dian aside and said, "This is what my grandfather asked me to give to you." ”
Gao Dian looked at a book that Wei Qiaoyi took out, and on the cover of the book, it was blank and there was no name.
"What is this?" Gao Dian asked.
"Just open it and see." Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian took it, opened the cover, and saw the contents inside.
"It's ...... Menu! Gao Dian was surprised.
"Yes." Wei Qiaoyi nodded.
Gao Dian looked at the recipe in a daze, and was a little speechless for a while.
The teacher gives himself a cookbook.
Suddenly, Gao Dian noticed that something was wrong with the recipe, and he flipped through it and found a letter sandwiched inside.
Wei Qiaoyi said: "I'll hand over the things to you, you can take your time." ”
With that, she left.
Gao Dian stood in the corner, took out the letter and opened it.
[Gao Dian:
When you read this letter, you think that you must have reached the top level of a first-class pastry chef.
This is a recipe that I have summarized all my life, and now I am handing it over to you in the hope that it will be helpful to you.
I didn't teach you too much pastry before, for fear that you would be too deeply influenced by me, which is not a good thing for you to get out of your own way.
When you get to that level, I think I can teach you these things and maybe help you get out of your own way faster.
What I hope is that you don't learn from the book, I want you to turn this into your own.
Come on, boy, the future is yours. ]
Looking at this short letter, Gao Dian felt mixed feelings.
He said silently in his heart, teacher, don't worry, I will.
Then, he put away the recipe with great care.
………………
The Appreciation Building has not been open for business for several days, and no one who knows the situation is to blame.
On this day, in the Appreciation Building, Wei Xu and Du Dawei were drinking.
The restaurant didn't open the door, but the two of them were inside.
"Drink less." Du Dawei persuaded.
Wei Xu shook his head and continued to drink, without speaking.
Du Dawei was helpless, so he could only accompany him to drink.
After a while, Du Dawei couldn't help but say, "How much more do you want to drink?" ”
"I don't know, I'm panicking." Wei Xu said.
Du Dawei was silent for a while, and said: "Master is gone, we are all very sad, but people live and learn to look forward, and Master must not want to see you like this." ”
Wei Xu took a glass of wine and said, "I know." ”
"You know you're still drinking like this!" Du Dawei said.
Wei Xu didn't reply, just drank to himself.
After a long time, Wei Xu suddenly said: "I have lived up to my father's hopes since I was a child, and he hopes that I can inherit him and become a pastry chef like him." But I don't have the talent for it, I prefer to do business. ”
When Du Dawei heard this, he was silent, he knew these things.
"I still have a bit of talent in business, and after my dad passed on the Appreciation Building to me, I took the Appreciation Building in another direction, which also made my relationship with my father fall to the freezing point."
Wei Xu said.
After he took over the Appreciation Building, he turned the Appreciation Building into a more commercial hotel. But what Wei Lianzhang hopes is that Appreciation House is a relatively pure hotel.
The father and son did not agree on their own ideas, which also led to a deterioration in their relationship.
"Master's character is like that, don't blame him, in fact, he has forgiven you later, but for the sake of face, he hasn't said it." Du Dawei said.
"I know." Wei Xu nodded, "Later, my dad suddenly apologized to me for some reason, and our relationship returned to the way it was before." ”
This Du Dawei didn't know that his master's personality was very strong, and it was rare to take the initiative to submit to softness.
"At that time, I was suspicious, I knew my dad too well, he was not that kind of character. Later, I found out that my dad was sick, but I still pretended not to know. I didn't stop my dad from drinking when it was time to drink, just like he wasn't sick. ”
Wei Xu said.
This made Du Dawei a little surprised, he always thought that the master was hiding from everyone, but he was wrong, the master did not hide from everyone.
"Then why don't you let Master receive treatment?" Du Dawei asked.
"I've thought about it, and I've struggled too. With treatment, my dad might have a few more years to live, I asked the doctor. That kind of illness will endure inhuman pain at every moment to the end. I was thinking, but was that really what he wanted? ”
As he spoke, his business became sluggish.
"In the end, I made a decision, I want my dad to live his last days well, without regrets, without pain."
When Du Dawei heard this, he didn't know what to say.
He couldn't blame Wei Xu for the decision he made, because it was also the decision his master wanted.
If his master wanted to be healed and wanted to live a few more years, maybe he wouldn't choose to hide it from everyone.
Since he chose to hide it, perhaps he was thinking about living his last days instead of living in pain.
For Wei Xu, making such a choice is to respect his father, but at the same time, it is extremely difficult to make this choice.
"Am I doing something wrong, you say? Maybe I should get him to be treated so he can live a few more years. Wei Xu asked.
Du Dawei sighed and said, "You are not wrong, this is the master's choice in itself, you just respect his choice." Master is going to be strong for a lifetime, maybe he doesn't want to be hard and miserable in his last days, and lose his decent life. ”
Wei Xu poured wine cup by cup, and this time, Du Dawei did not stop it.
These days, he has been blaming himself, if he chose to let his father receive treatment, would his father still be alive now.
Seeing Wei Xu's appearance, Du Dawei didn't know how to persuade him, maybe he could only come out when he figured it out himself.
After drinking for a while, Wei Xu suddenly said, "Tomorrow...... Let's continue to open the restaurant, although my father is gone, but the appreciation building he left behind cannot easily fall. Senior Brother Du, ...... in the future I'll leave it to you. ”
Du Dawei said: "Don't say this, don't worry, one day with me, the Appreciation Building will not fall." ”
Wei Xu responded.
………………
"Dad, you can eat some."
Hu Zheng said.
"Put it down, I don't have much appetite." Hu Dekun said.
Hearing this, Hu Zheng sighed softly and put the thing down.
Hu Dekun sat in front of his father's tablet and said softly: "Dad, senior brother has come down to find you, you must beat him up at that time, so that he insists on leaving at that time!" ”
"He was ahead of me in everything, he was like this when he was learning to cook, and now he is ahead of me even when he walks." Hu Dekun sighed.
"Senior brother is an irresponsible person, he just walked away, left his students and granddaughter to me, let me help him take care of it, I don't want to help him take care of it, how troublesome.
However, this was the last thing he asked me to do, and I was not allowed to refuse. For his sake, I'll take care of him reluctantly. ”
Hu Dekun was thinking in pieces, although his mouth kept saying that he was dissatisfied with Wei Lianzhang, but his tone was full of sadness.
Hu Zheng watched from a distance and sighed heavily, his father has been like this for a few days.
Since the death of Old Man Wei, he has been like this, he has very little food, and always says that he has no appetite.
Looking at his father's appearance, Hu Zheng knew why, but he didn't understand.
Obviously, the two are so incompatible, but one is gone, and the other is so sad.
………………
As the days passed, after the death of Old Man Wei, some people grieved, but as time passed, this grief was much less.
Those affected have gradually returned to their normal lives.
Recently, Gao Dian noticed that Wei Qiaoyi was a little strange.
Her recent performance has been a bit unusual.
Wei Qiaoyi before was very low-key and hardly in the limelight.
But recently, Wei Qiaoyi has been in the limelight like crazy.
That's right, in Gao Dian's opinion, she is just in the limelight.
For example, Wei Qiaoyi began to be interviewed by Flavor, and invited many food critics to taste her pastries.
With these moves, Wei Qiaoyi's reputation in the industry has increased rapidly.
This incomprehensible move in Gao Dian's eyes is taken very seriously in the eyes of some people.
At this moment, Dianxin Building ushered in two unexpected guests.
Gu Tongzhou took Zhang Yafei to Dianxin Building and named Gao Dian.
When Gao Dian saw the two of them, he was stunned for the first time, he knew why Gu Tongzhou came to find him on purpose.
As for Zhang Yafei beside him, Gao Dian forgot about it.
Although he and Zhang Yafei have been together for a few days, he really doesn't have a deep impression of Zhang Yafei.
"Old Gu, did you come to me this time, is there something wrong?" Gao Dian asked.
"I'm here to ask you to do me a favor." Gu Tongzhou said.
"Help?" Gao Dian was a little puzzled, "What can I help you?" ”
Gao Dian is still grateful to Gu Tongzhou, he learned a lot from Gu Tongzhou, and ramen was learned from him.
"Let Xiaofei stay with you for a while, huh...... Just stay under you and learn from her, and teach her how to cook when you have time. Gu Tongzhou said.
Zhang Yafei winked at Gao Dian, but there was doubt in Gao Dian's eyes, who is Xiaofei?
However, Gao Dian was not stupid, and quickly reacted that Xiaofei should be referring to the young girl beside him.
"The younger generation has low cooking skills, why should the younger generation come? Gu Lao, shouldn't it be better for you to teach in person? Gao Dian asked.
Gu Tongzhou said with a smile: "You kid pushes three things and resists, do you know why I taught you noodles in the first place?" ”
Gao Dian shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"I owe your teacher a favor, and he came to me to return it to me, so I will teach you something." Gu Tongzhou said.
Gao Dian was even more puzzled, and said: "Since you are returning my teacher's favor, it shouldn't have anything to do with me, right?" ”
Gao Dian means, you are the one who taught me back the favor, and now you want me to teach you, why?
Gu Tongzhou smiled: "I haven't finished my sentence yet, you kid is a little anxious." ”
Gao Dian smiled and said, "Old Gu, you continue." ”
"Your teacher's favor is only enough for the things I taught you. But at that time, your teacher asked me for another thing, which can be regarded as a transaction.
He asked me to teach you how to make dragon beard noodles, and the price is for you to pay. Now the price I make you pay is to teach Xiaofei and let Xiaofei learn in your hands for a while.
Whether you want to complete the deal or not is up to you. Gu Tongzhou said with a smile.
When Gao Dian heard this, he said: "Since the teacher said it, then I naturally agree." ”
Gu Tongzhou glanced at Gao Dian and said, "Don't look reluctant on your face, you took advantage of this deal." If it weren't for your teacher, I wouldn't have agreed. ”
Gao Dian immediately denied it: "I am not reluctant. ”
