Chapter 43: Cooking

Xiao Er looked around, and then said: "Originally, the business of our restaurant was better than that of Hongyun Restaurant, so the Chen family bought Hongyun Mansion and poached all the chefs in our store to him. ”

Gu Yunjie listened to Xiao Er's words and felt that the owner was really a little miserable.

A fat old man came out with a grin, a blue apron hanging from his body, and his hair wrapped in a blue hat.

Xiao Er, who still wanted to say something, stood up: "The owner." ”

The fat old man sat down at the table between Gu Yunjie and Chu San, and looked at Gu Yunjie with a smile: "Girl, are you okay with this meal?" ”

Gu Yunjie had just barely eaten a few bites, and she really had no appetite, and shook her head: "It's not very to my taste." ”

"Uncle, how long have you been running a restaurant?" Gu Yunjie asked.

Generally speaking, people who can open a restaurant also have some ability. This uncle, if he can open a restaurant, he must not be able to point to others, and his own craftsmanship must also be possible.

"Before, my wife and I opened a noodle restaurant for more than ten years plus stir-fried vegetables, and after saving some money, we opened a restaurant, and it has been more than 20 years. You must think that I have been running a restaurant for so long, why don't I have any back-up at all? I was ashamed to say this, I had an illness after the death of my wife, and after I got better, I lost my sense of smell and taste, and I habitually tried the taste, and I felt that I would add seasoning again if I felt that it was tasteless, so that the dish must be unpalatable, and after a long time, I doubted that I would not stir-fry. ”

"The Chen family must have known that I have this problem, so they dare to poach all our chefs. If my own sense of smell and taste were still there, I would have been able to sustain this restaurant myself without them. The fat old man looked pity: "You have also seen the current situation, few people eat during the day and night, at most we will last another month, and we will close the door." ”

"The owner, it's really not good, we sold the restaurant, it's better than now." Xiao Er has been following the fat old man for many years, and now he is not happy when he sees the situation of the owner in a bad situation.

Gu Yunjie just wants to eat, as for the other party wants to sell the restaurant, she has to eat a full meal before thinking about it: "Can you go to your back kitchen to have a look?" ”

"Girl, do you want to?"

"Look at what ingredients you have, I'd like to make a few dishes myself, okay?"

The fat old man looked at the dishes on the table that hadn't moved much, and stood up embarrassedly: "Naturally, it's okay, girl, please come with me." ”

The kitchen is clean and spacious, and the fat old man is doing a good job in hygiene.

Cut a few pieces of tofu and make a braised tofu. There was cut beef on the side, and I made a poached beef fillet.

After a while, Gu Yunjie prepared three dishes.

"Eat, taste what I made." Gu Yunjie laid out the dishes: "I like spicy, I can't eat it without spicy, this one is not spicy, you eat this." ”

Gu Yunjie moved the braised tofu to Chu San.

Chu San looked at the red soup beef slices in front of her and swallowed his saliva: "You look good." ”

"You're not in good health, this one is too spicy, you can't eat it."

The fat old man looked at the two of them, remembered that he and his wife were young, and laughed: "The two of you are newlyweds." ”

Chu San replied: "Yes, I just got married a few days ago." ”

"I can see that the two of you are also an interesting couple."

Gu Yunjie quickly finished eating, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and began to look around seriously: "The old man just said that he wanted to sell this restaurant, is it true?" ”

"The girl has a crush." The fat old man was not surprised, and he had to accompany Gu Yunjie to walk around: "I'll show you around, there is a courtyard behind here, and there is no problem for a family." There is also a well in the yard for easy access to water. ”

The restaurant has a total of two floors, plus the area of the backyard, there is about 300 square meters.

"I had that idea. I definitely don't have time to take charge of the chef myself, and if I buy it, does my uncle have a chef in charge to recommend it for me. ”

"Girl, Xiao Er must have told you about my situation, if I can find a suitable leader, I won't be so pressed to death. I offended the Chen family, and some people with some abilities didn't dare to come over. ”

"Uncle, don't you have a few apprentices with you or something?"

"I brought up the few people who were poached by the Chen family before. Their wings are stiff and they want to fly away, what can they do. Girl, I think you have a good hand just now, if you run it yourself, it may not be bad. ”

Gu Yunjie turned around and looked at the fat old man.

"What are you watching me do, you just tasted my cooking, you can't eat it yourself, let alone use it to entertain guests." I think that back then, his cooking skills were also unique in the county, who would have thought that one day, his cooking skills would become what they are now.

"Show me your hand, and I'll take your pulse."

"The girl will also see a doctor."

"Yes."

The fat old man stretched out his hand, Gu Yunjie took it, and let the fat old man stick out his tongue again.

It seems that she expected it right, the fat old man's illness was not accidental, he ate something he shouldn't eat, and hurt his sense of smell and taste.

"Girl, I lost my sense of taste and smell suddenly, and I have seen many doctors, but there is no way to cure it."

"It's not impossible."

"Do you have a way?" Hope rose in the fat old man's eyes: "You didn't lie to me? ”

"What's there to fool you about this kind of thing?"

"Girl, if you can cure my sense of smell and taste, I'll give you a spoon."

"I haven't eaten your craft, I'll taste it when you're ready. If your skills are really good, I can partner with you, and the apparent owner of the restaurant has been replaced by me, and the actual manager is still you. ”

The fat old man barely thought about it: "As long as the girl can cure my illness, I will listen to the girl." But the girl also knows that Chen Gongzi wants my daughter to be his aunt, and I definitely don't agree. Is the girl sure that she will face the Chen family? If you're not sure, think again. ”

"I have also been in contact with Chen Gongzi." remembered that he had asked Chen Guangshi for three hundred taels of silver, and he had already offended people.

"The girl knows Chen Gongzi?"

"Uncle, if I rent the restaurant, I will naturally deal with these things. Now it's important to get your illness cured. ”

"That's the reason, when is the girl going to start treatment."

"I'll give you some medicine in a while, you take it according to my instructions first, and three days later, I'll come back to give you injections."

The two talked again, and when Gu Yunjie went to the thatched house, she took a few plates of medicine from the laboratory, grinded them in the laboratory, and put them in paper bags.

When I opened a small packet, it was powdered inside, and I couldn't see what these medicines looked like.
