Although this is definitely not a good errand, since Wu Chunlai has already ordered, Wu Zhong does not have the courage to refuse, so he can only walk towards Yipinju.

Yipinju's business is booming, the table is already full of guests, and there is almost no place to sit, but fortunately, Zhou Dacheng's eyes are sharp, and he saw Wu Zhong walking into the restaurant at a glance.

"Yo, Steward Wu, why are you here?" Zhou Dacheng had seen Wu Zhong before, and knew that the other party was Wu Chunlai's butler, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

Seeing Zhou Dacheng's respectful expression, Wu Zhong straightened his chest and said, "I heard that you have launched a new dish from Yipinju, and my master wants to try it, so let me bring a message to the shopkeeper Yan by the way." ”

"Steward Wu, then please come in, and I will help you lead the way. Hearing that Steward Wu wanted to see Yan Yunhua, Zhou Dacheng hurriedly led the other party and walked towards the back of the lobby.

Zhou Dacheng took Wu Zhong to the side hall of the restaurant, and then walked to the back kitchen of Yipinju and told Yan Yunhua and Yan Nantian of Wu Zhong's intention.

After hearing Zhou Dacheng's description, Yan Yunhua asked thoughtfully: "Xiaotian, you said that Wu Chunlai sent Steward Wu over, do you have something to tell us?" ”

"In my opinion, I'm afraid it's still for the rent of the restaurant. Yan Nantian pondered for a moment and said, "Grandpa, you might as well go out to see him, I also have two dishes to come out of the pot here, just pack them back for Steward Wu first." ”

"It's okay, so that things on both sides don't delay. Yan Yunhua nodded slightly, then washed his hands, untied the girdle on his body, and then walked out of the back kitchen.

Yan Yunhua walked to the side hall, and sure enough, he saw Wu Zhong sitting on a chair, with a smile on his face, and said, "Steward Wu, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"You're welcome, I came to Yipinju today, mainly for two purposes, the first is to pack two dishes at your place, and the second is to convey a word to you on behalf of our master. Wu Zhong said straight to the point.

"Oh, I don't know if Wu Yuanwai has anything to tell me?" Yan Yunhua asked.

"Our master said that if you move out of the restaurant tomorrow, he will take back the restaurant. Wu Zhong said.

"Why do you drive us away tomorrow, I agreed with Wu Chunlai before that it would take seven days, and tomorrow is only the third day. Yan Nantian said.

Although, Wu Zhong also felt a little inauthentic about Wu Chunlai's approach, but as Wu Chunlai's housekeeper, he naturally wanted to stand on his master's side, and said coldly: "Hmph, this restaurant belongs to the Wu family, let you move away, naturally our master will say." ”

"Steward Wu, you just said that you wanted to pack the dishes, and now you say that you want to drive us away, do you have someone like you who crossed the river and demolished the bridge? You patted your chest, can you have a good conscience?" Yan Yunhua said angrily.

"Shopkeeper Yan, I'm also an errand runner, I've said everything I need to say, you can do it yourself. Wu Zhong spread his hands and said.

"Steward Wu, what happened, why is Wu Yuanwai in a hurry to kick us out of the restaurant?" At this moment, Yan Nantian walked into the side hall and asked.

The back kitchen is next to the guest hall, what the two of them said just now, Yan Nantian heard it in 1510, and his heart was also full of indignation about Wu Chunlai's change of order.

Thinking that he still had the task of packing the dishes, Wu Zhong didn't want to anger the ancestors of the Yan family, and explained: "My lord has found a new tenant, and the other party has asked to hand over the restaurant tomorrow. ”

"I see. Yan Nantian responded, and he didn't have the heart to perfunctory the other party, and said to Zhou Dacheng on the side: "Uncle Zhou, bring the two packaged dishes and let Steward Wu take advantage of the tropics." ”

Hearing Yan Nantian's words, Wu Zhong didn't know that the other party was driving people away, and he was embarrassed to stay here, so he stood up and arched his hand, and said:

"In that case, then I will take my leave first, my lord has instructed, the money for packing dishes should be deducted from the arrears of rent. ”

After seeing Wu Zhong leave, Yan Yunhua patted the armrest of the wooden chair and said, "Xiaotian, Wu Chunlai will take back the restaurant tomorrow, what should we do?"

"Wu Chunlai has found a new tenant, and the matter of repossessing the restaurant tomorrow is probably not negotiable. Yan Nantian shook his head slightly and asked, "Grandpa, how much silver do we have, can we change to a smaller restaurant." ”

"Xiaotian, the real estate in Wujiang Town is very scarce, and it is difficult to find a rental restaurant temporarily, which will definitely delay the business of Yipinju, and the new rental restaurant not only requires a deposit, but also a household belongings, and the money required will only be a lot more. Yan Yunhua sighed.

"Grandpa, how much silver do we have, can we make up a month's rent tomorrow, as long as we pay back the rent on credit, maybe Wu Chunlai will continue to rent to us." Yan Nantian said.

"The monthly rent of the restaurant is one hundred taels, we still have forty taels left, yesterday we earned twenty taels, today there are more than a dozen taels of silver, and now a total of more than seventy taels of silver. Yan Yunhua said.

"Grandpa, today's business is not over yet, it is estimated that we will be able to earn twenty taels by night, and if the business is good tomorrow, we may not be able to scrape together enough one hundred taels of silver. Yan Nantian said.

"Xiaotian, you're right, why didn't I think of it. As soon as he heard Yan Nantian's words, Yan Yunhua had the strength again and said, "Xiaotian, then let's hurry up and cook now, and strive to earn a hundred taels tomorrow."

"Good. ”

Yan Nantian responded, but his heart did not relax, since Wu Chunlai had found a new tenant, even if he raised a hundred taels of silver tomorrow, it might not be smooth sailing.

However, while you haven't been kicked out of the restaurant, it's always a good thing to do more business and make more money, even if you really want to move out of the restaurant, you can have more protection.

......

Wujiang Town Wu Family Compound.

The Wu family has taken root in Wujiang Town for hundreds of years, Wu Chunlai's father Wu Zhendong, who was good at business when he was young, made the Wu family's industry several times richer, and only began to raise it for a thousand years in the past two years, and handed over the Wu family's industry to Wu Chunlai to take care of.

Wu Chunlai is very majestic outside, but the real person in charge of the Wu family is Wu Chunlai's father Wu Zhendong, and every night after returning home, Wu Chunlai will accompany his father to dine.

Wu Zhendong is a person who talks about rules, and he has to eat on time every day, and the place where the father and son eat is in the side hall of Wu Zhendong's main room.

At this time, the sky had not yet darkened, and the light in the side hall was quite sufficient, Wu Zhendong was sitting at the head of the table, while Wu Chunlai was sitting aside.

"Spring, why are there so many dishes today, I can't finish eating them and have leftovers. Wu Zhendong is thin, but he is full of energy when he speaks.

"Dad, there are new dishes in the restaurant in the town, so I specially asked someone to pack two dishes for you, do you want to taste them?" Wu Chunlai glanced at it, pointed to the two dishes in the middle of the table, and said.

"No wonder, I said these two dishes, why haven't I seen them before. Wu Zhendong nodded slightly and said.

"Old lady, this dish on the left is called Dongpo Tofu, and the dish on the right is called Mapo Tofu. Wu Zhong, who was standing on the side and serving, hurriedly bowed down and introduced.

"Are these two dishes hard?" Wu Zhendong is old after all, and his teeth are a little bad, so he can't eat anything too hard.

"Dad, it's not hard at all, I've tried it before, so that's what you can eat. Wu Chun said.

"Well, even if you kid has filial piety, I'll try it. Wu Zhendong smiled, then picked up the chopsticks and ate a bite of mapo tofu on the right side.

"Dad, what do you think of the taste?" Wu Chunlai asked with a smile.

"It's delicious, numb, spicy, crispy, soft, and chewy. Wu Zhendong sighed, and then took another bite of Dongpo meat, and felt that it was similar to the taste of meat.

"Dad, it's delicious, you can eat more. Wu Chun said.

Wu Chunlai packed these two dishes, just with the intention of taking advantage, but he didn't expect it to be crooked, which made his father quite satisfied, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

"Good. Wu Zhendong replied and said.

Wu Zhendong is a person who loves meat, but he is old and has bad teeth, so he can't bite if he wants to eat meat, but now he has eaten two tofu dishes, but he has found the feeling of eating meat.

Goodbye to these two dishes, Wu Zhendong should have eaten two bowls of rice, and he also ate more than half of the two tofu dishes, which was twice as much as the usual amount of food.

"Clam ......"

Wu Zhendong burped, patted his stomach, and said, "I haven't eaten so full for a long time, these two dishes are good, and these two tofu dishes will be served tomorrow." ”
