"Merry Christmas everyone!"

As soon as Aunt Phil entered, she immediately shouted Merry Christmas to everyone in the restaurant.

Every Christmas, Aunt Phil's family is the first to come to eat, and Aunt Phil's family is different from other families, others are American-Chinese food, while Aunt Phil's family is a Chinese-style Christmas dinner, especially what they want to eat, and provide materials.

"Merry Christmas, Auntie".

Zhang Wen and Zhang Chi both greeted Aunt Phil.

Zheng Huai also followed Zhang Wen and called Aunt Phil.

"Yo, yo! Look at how good this girl looks, not only in terms of appearance, but also in temperament! Aunt Phil pulled Zheng Huai up, looked up and down, and then began to praise.

"Thank you, auntie" Zheng Huai was a little embarrassed.

"Dawen, you really have a vision, when will you have a happy event?" Aunt Phil asked.

Aunt Phil watched Zhang Wen grow up, so it was not abrupt to ask, and the two families were considered to be good families, so as Zhang Wen's elder, Aunt Phil spoke a little casually.

If it were a foreigner, no one would ask such a question, because it is a more personal matter.

"Next year, find a time next year," Zhang Wen said.

"Okay, good, such a good girl has to strike first" Aunt Phil likes a girl like Zheng Huai, who obviously has a Chinese temperament.

Aunt Phil likes Chinese girls, doesn't like those foreigners, and thinks that foreign girls are not as good as our Chinese girls who can take care of the family.

Gu Ying and Zhang Youliang in the back kitchen heard the movement outside and walked out.

The two families exchanged Merry Christmas.

"You really came in time, the roast suckling pig over there is just right, and you can eat now?" Zhang Youliang asked Aunt Phil's family.

"Eat, eat, any later will delay your business."

As soon as they said this, Zhang Chi and Zhang Wen began to set the table dishes.

Zhang Youliang directly brought up the suckling pig that had been roasted in the kitchen for several hours.

The suckling pig is roasted quite well, and the whole little pig is lying on the plate, and the whole body is the color of the burnt sauce, and the oil is shaking and looks like a great appetite.

Zhang Youliang took the plate and began to cut the suckling pig, as soon as the edge of the plate touched the skin of the suckling pig, there was a soft clicking sound in everyone's ears.

The pork skin is crispy, the pork is tender and fragrant, and it is dipped in several dry ingredients, each of which has a different rich flavor.

Zhang Chi and Zhang Wen acted as waiters, and Aunt Phil not only ate by herself, but also got some for the Zhang Wen brothers from time to time.

I've gotten used to it since I was a child.

As for why not two families eat together? To know what time it is? During the busiest time of the year, even takeout is not delivered today, where is the time to accompany Aunt Phil's family to eat.

Besides, when can't the two families eat, they have to come to eat on Christmas Day?

Aunt Phil's family's dishes are quickly served, according to our Chinese habits, four cold dishes and six hot dishes, cold dishes include preserved egg tofu, dry cut beef, peanuts and salted duck, hot dishes are also home cooking, what loofah scrambled eggs, small fried beef and the like.

Of course, let's have a holiday meal, how can there be less fish, there is fish every year, this auspicious is not to be displeased, so in addition to the roast suckling pig in the center of the table, it is a steamed cinnamon fish.

Aunt Phil's family ate half of it, and the restaurant began to be on people, and everyone is on holiday today, and they all know what the state of today's Chinese restaurant is, so those who can come early will naturally come early, and they don't want to queue up for the official meal if they don't want to wait in line for the official meal.

Foreigners' dishes are actually very easy to make for Chinese chefs, and they all like sweet and sour dishes, like what kind of silk dishes are even more appealing to them.

Zhang Youliang and Gu Ying were busy in the back kitchen, Zheng Huai was helping to hand over things or something, and Zhang Wen and Zhang Chi brothers were doing the work of running the hall.

The dishes came out quickly, and the brothers Zhang Wen and Zhang Chi almost kept shuttling between the kitchen and the guests' tables.

At eleven o'clock, the queue began in the restaurant, and soon the line was outside.

I have to say that these foreigners are really frost-resistant, in such a cold weather, throw a bench outside, these guys can sit for half an hour.

As the owner of the restaurant, he can't let the guests sit like this, Zhang Youliang and his family, as usual, prepared ice water and sour plum soup for these people.

It's all cold! But most of these old beauties don't have the habit of drinking hot water, so sitting outside in a temperature of more than ten degrees below zero, drinking sour plum soup, may surprise people who are new to this place.

Zheng Huai now has a new job, which is to serve these customers queuing outside.

Zhang Chi was busy almost without touching the ground, and looked out the window, originally wanting to see how long the line outside was, but who knew that he actually saw Li Qiao's family at this glance.

So Zhang Chi took advantage of his free time and walked out.

"What are you doing here?"

Zhang Chi asked with a wry smile at Li Qiao.

Li Qin said: "We don't have anything to do today, and we don't want to cook, so we want to come over and eat something, who knew that when we got here, there was such a long line."

"You really know how to pick the time, come over at this time" Zhang Chi really doesn't know how to say these two people, where will the average Chinese choose this time to come over for dinner, just get a bite at home to deal with, run this ice and snow lined up in the line.

Li Qiao said: "Okay, you are busy with your going, I see that you are busy in it and are about to become a flash, your uncle is really good enough, this serving speed."

Zhang Chi smiled: "No way, it's practiced." I won't talk to you anymore, if we continue to talk, my brother won't be able to hold on."

After saying a few words to Li Qiao's family, Zhang Chi re-entered the house and got busy.

Taking advantage of the time when he was a little free, Zhang Chi took some snacks and gave them to Li Qiao's children, fried broad bean curd, spiced beans or something. Of course, it is impossible to give it to Li Qiao's children alone, and the American children have also shared some.

There was no hurry to ask the children if they were delicious, Zhang Chi turned his head and went into the house to continue his work.

I was so busy until half past two in the afternoon, when all the guests in the restaurant were waiting for me, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and found a place to sit, and no one wanted to get up for the time being.

Zheng Huai's work is lighter, and she still has the strength, at least the strength to speak.

"Are you so busy every year?" Zheng Huai asked.

Zhang Wen nodded: "Well, it's so busy at this time of year."

"Uncle, aunt, you still have to pay attention to your body, what can you do if you are so busy, young people can't hold it," Zheng Huai said.

Gu Ying smiled when she heard this: "It's okay, that is, it's a little busier during the festival." Now you let the two of us do nothing, but feel panicked in our hearts, this work, I can't think of anything, and my heart is very steady."

"Mom and Dad, I think it's better to invite someone, you can also be more relaxed," Zhang Wen said.

Zhang Youliang said: "Who are you looking for, how many people want to do this job now, and even if they want to do it, they have to take it for a while, otherwise this taste will change, and the old customers will not recognize it."

What Zhang Youliang said is also true, few people want to do restaurants now, even if they do, many people also come to learn, and when they learn to open their own restaurants, maybe they will still be nearby, and when the time comes, they will not talk about grabbing business, and they will be angry.

In this way, it is better to open the restaurant if you are in good health, and sell the restaurant if you are not in good health.

Everyone chatted for a while, and when they had some strength, they were ready to eat.

After eating, the next step is to prepare the dinner for the evening.

Naturally, it was another busy day.

It was more than nine o'clock, after eating, the restaurant was closed, and Zhang Chi was ready to go home.

As soon as I went out, snowflakes began to fall outside.

Zhang Wen said to Zhang Chi at this moment: "Xiao Chi, don't go back tonight, it just so happens that your little martial brother hasn't come back, you can live at home."

Zhang Chi said: "No, I'd better go back, I still have to see the cattle at home, and I'm about to return to China, and some things have to be sorted out."

Zhang Chi doesn't like to live in other people's houses very much, although he has a close relationship with his uncle's family, but he can go home as soon as he takes a step, so why should he live in his uncle's house.

"Don't forget to go to my house when you leave, I have something to bring to my uncle, aunt and uncle."

"I see, you said it last time."

Zhang Chi replied with a smile, turned around and walked towards the car, got into the car and waved his hand to the uncle's family, and then drove the car home.

The snow fell, and the ice was directly frozen, and the road was better than in the morning. Zhang Chi's car naturally increased a little speed.

The journey was quite smooth, only encountered a group of bison, and a group of deer, stopped a little, and waited for these road tyrants to pass, Zhang Chi continued to walk.

When he was about to arrive at the entrance of the town, about two or three miles away from the town, Zhang Chi suddenly saw a light in front of him.

Slow down and walk slowly, for fear that there is a big car or something in front of you, and you will crash into it if you are too fast.

When I got to the side, I found that the two cars were stuck in the ditch, and I don't know if they slid into it or the driver drove in, anyway, now I see that the two cars are unable to move.

As soon as I looked at the license plate, Zhang Chi knew that the two cars were outsiders, obviously not very familiar with the road here, this side is mountainous, although there is no cliff, but there are a lot of small sharp turns and small snake bends.

Normally, it's fine, as long as the speed doesn't get too fast, but at this time, if your speed is a little faster and the tires lose their grip, then you will be in trouble.

Zhang Chi carefully parked the car on the side of the road and walked out to see what was going on.

"Hey, man".

As soon as Zhang Chi got out of the car, he heard a voice.

"Hello, what's wrong".

Zhang Chi greeted the few people standing next to the car in English.

Before these people could answer, Zhang Chi was happy.

Because he heard an all-too-familiar interjection.

"Oh, that's unlucky," a figure grumbled.

"Chinese?"

Zhang Chi asked happily.

The opposite side was obviously stunned, and immediately became enthusiastic: "Brother, you are also Chinese?" ”

Chinese on both sides, even the air is a little hotter.
