De Yi Xuan is a time-honored brand in the capital, according to legend, the founder of De Yi Xuan is the famous Jianghu chef Zhuge Rong in the past, legend has it that Zhuge Rong not only has a good swordsmanship, but also a good cooking skill, it is said that a plate of egg fried rice in Zhuge Rong at that time can be sold for ten taels of silver.

As long as people who have eaten Zhuge Rong's food will remember Zhuge Rong and the dishes he cooked, at that time Zhuge Rong thought that he could not improve his swordsmanship, so he put all his mind into cooking, so he has the current Deyixuan.

This was more than a hundred years ago, but there is one thing that will not disappear with time, and this thing is called fame, a kind of fame that spreads ten, ten, and hundred.

It is because of this that the business of Deyixuan Restaurant is so good, but there is one thing that has to be said, that is, the food of Deyixuan is much worse than that of Zhuge Rong at that time, and there is only one reason for this result, that is, the current boss of Deyixuan does not put all his mind into cooking.

However, this does not matter, because the wine and food of Deyixuan are second to none in the capital, so many dignitaries and nobles like to entertain guests in Deyixuan.

But Deyixuan has a rule, which is the rule of Zhuge Rongding in the past, and this rule says this: The restaurant is used to give guests good food, so no one is allowed to charter the restaurant.

Zhuge Rong is a real chef, his whole life is studying food, creating food, in his heart everyone has the right to enjoy food, he is happy and even will pull the beggars on the street closer to the restaurant for the beggars to fill the table with delicious meals.

Zhuge Rong is the founder of Deyixuan, although he is now gone, his words still have weight for the boss of Deyixuan.

This rule is not a secret, as long as everyone in the Deyi Xuan Restaurant knows this rule, so when Da Zhuang said these words, several other big men would show such surprise.

Xiong Yu was not interested in what Da Zhuang said, because it didn't matter who took over the restaurant, because as long as he handed over the silver ticket in his arms to the owner of the restaurant, he would be free again, and then he could redeem his sword and go to the news of Fan Xiuwen in the capital hall.

But the ears and eyes of people who practice martial arts are far more than ordinary people, so Xiong Yu accidentally heard what Da Zhuang said.

Xiong Yu looked at Da Zhuang's cautious expression and said secretly in his heart: Who will this be if the restaurant is going to be chartered? Why is it just a simple name that makes these people nervous like this.

Looking at Da Zhuang's nervous appearance, Xiong Yu couldn't help but be a little curious, although he didn't look interested, his ears couldn't help but prick up.

Da Zhuang rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Brothers, I will tell the name of this big man, don't lose your soul by hearing it." ”

Several big men said with a look of disbelief: "Brother Zhuang, say it quickly, the brothers really can't hold it back, you can say it quickly." ”

Da Zhuang opened his eyes wide and said: "This person is Fan Xiuwen, who has the largest business in the rivers and lakes, the widest way, and countless amounts of silver. ”

It was not only those big men who were surprised, but the most shocked was Xiong Yu who was standing on the side.

The application on Xiong Yu's face was even more exaggerated than that of those big men, and those big men took a deep breath and said, "Brother Zhuang, do you really want such a character to come to our restaurant?"

Da Zhuang nodded and said, "Really, could it be that I still lied to you." ”

Among the several big men, a strong man with a fat head and big ears touched his head and said: "It is said that this Fan Xiuwen still has a close relationship with the members of the dynasty, if I can get Fan Xiuwen's appreciation, then my future must be bright." ”

Da Zhuang slapped this big man in the head, Da Zhuang laughed and said: "You kid, don't daydream, tell me what is there in your body that can make Fan Xiuwen take a fancy to it." ”

The strong man with a fat head and big ears looked down at his body and said, "I weigh two hundred and sixty pounds, Brother Zhuang, do you think this is my strength." ”

Da Zhuang nodded and said, "This can only mean that you eat more than others." As soon as Da Zhuang's voice fell, it immediately caused the surrounding big men to laugh.

Xiong Yu's heart has already rippled, Fan Xiuwen will come to Deyi Xuan to hold a banquet in a few days, just now Xiong Yu was still worried about where to find Fan Xiuwen, but now he knows the news of Fan Xiuwen, the right way is to step on the iron shoes and find nowhere to get it, it takes no effort.

Since Fan Xiuwen is going to come to Deyixuan, then why don't he wait here for the rabbit, besides, now that he is a shopkeeper, he will not make Fan Xiuwen suspicious, and he can also get close to Fan Xiuwen very well.

Thinking of this, Xiong Yu immediately turned around and left, and Da Zhuang suddenly shouted behind Xiong Yu: "Boy, what are you going to do?

Xiong Yutou didn't reply: "No need, I don't have any money to pay back your boss, I'd better go and do chores." ”

Da Zhuang said with a blank face: "Is this kid crazy?" Speaking of Da Zhuang, as if remembering something, he said to a few big men beside him: "Don't forget the daughter of the altar you owe me." ”

A few strong men first smiled, and then a few big men seemed to say it in advance, and a few big men ran away with different legs, leaving only Da Zhuang who stood in place and scolded his mother.

As soon as I entered the back kitchen, I saw the old man Gan who was bending over to wash the dishes, Xiong Yu walked up to the old man Gan and leaned down and said, "Old man Gan, I'm back." ”

Old man Gan looked up and said in surprise: "Bear boy, aren't you already gone, why are you back again?"

Xiong Yu smiled and said: "Because I thought about it carefully, the temptation of burning knives is still greater, so I must drink up your burning knives and go." ”

Old man Gan shook his wet hand and said with a smile: "Then you kid have to drink, there are dozens of jars of burning knives in my cellar." ”

Xiong Yu helped Old Man Gan up and said, "Old Man Gan, you come out with me, I have something to tell you." ”

Old man Gan looked at Xiong Yu and smiled: "Could it be that you have something good to take care of me, an old man." ”

Xiong Yu took Old Man Gan to the back door, then took out five hundred taels of silver tickets from his arms and put them in Old Man Gan's arms and said, "This is for you." ”

Old man Gan hurriedly shirked and said, "This is what you won, and I said that I would score half of it, how can I ask for your this, my old face is not thick to this extent, I can't ask for this silver ticket." ”

Xiong Yu waved his hand and said, "Just think of it as my cost of staying in your house for the past few days." ”

Old man Gan shook his head, took out the silver ticket in his arms and put it into Xiong Yu's hand and said: "My house is not an inn, whatever you want, you can live as long as you want, I won't charge you a penny." ”

Xiong Yu frowned, then he stuffed the silver ticket into Old Man Gan's hand, and then clenched Old Man Gan's hand, Xiong Yu stared at Old Man Gan and said, "How old are you today?"

Old man Gan obviously felt that this question was a little inexplicable, and he thought for a while and said, "I will be sixty-four in two months. ”

Xiong Yu nodded and continued, "How old is your old woman?"

Old man Gan's eyes were full of doubts, but he still replied, "My old woman is fifty-three years old this year. ”

Xiong Yu smiled and said, "Very good, then let me ask you, has your old wife ever had a good life with you in her life." ”

Old man Gan shook his head, and Xiong Yu continued: "Now that you and your wife are old, why bother to look at other people's faces in the restaurant and do things for others, the most important thing for you and your wife to do now is to enjoy it, since you didn't enjoy it in the first half of your life, then enjoy it in the second half of your life." ”

Old man Gan's hand holding the silver ticket trembled a little, he looked at Xiong Yu and said, "That's why you gave me five hundred taels?"

Xiong Yu shook his head and said, "Money is the root of calamity, so I only gave you the source of this calamity to avoid it." ”

Who could hear that this was just Xiong Yu's pretense to let Old Man Gan accept his silver, Old Man Gan understood, so Old Man Gan held Xiong Yu's hand tightly and said three words: "Thank you." ”

Xiong Yu laughed and said, "Go home quickly." ”

Old man Gan was puzzled: "What to do when you go home, I haven't finished the restaurant yet." ”

Xiong Yu smiled and said: "I'll do the things for you, young people need to exercise a lot, as long as you don't gamble, this thousand taels of silver is enough for you to live well for the rest of your life." ”

Old man Gan was speechless, he could only say one more thing: "Thank you." ”

It is a happy thing to be able to help people in need, and there are some things that you don't know why you are happy, but as long as you do it, you will understand the happiness.

Isn't this how Xiong Yu is, his heart is very happy at this moment, not only because he got the news from Fan Xiuwen, but also because he let Old Man Gan live a life where he doesn't have to run for two taels of silver a month, shouldn't a person of Old Man Gan's age live a carefree life?

Looking at the plates and chopsticks as high as the hill in front of him today, Xiong Yu didn't worry, when a person is in a good mood, anything that is not so pleasant will become cute.

When Xiong Yu walked out of the back kitchen again, it was already dusk, Xiong Yu moved, his stiff back finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the darkening sky, Xiong Yu said secretly in his heart: What would Xiaoyaozi think if he saw my current appearance?

The hand that should have held the sword is now holding the rag, and the palm that should have been dry is now white with dirty blisters, looking at his hands Xiong Yu smiled helplessly, but all this is worth it in Xiong Yu's opinion, because in a few days he will see Fan Xiuwen, and see Fan Xiuwen who poisoned Mr. Lan Er's father.

Tonight you must drink a few more cups of the burning knife in the old man's cellar to treat yourself, Xiong Yu thought so and walked towards the back door of Deyixuan, I don't know what kind of appetizer the old man Gan prepared tonight, Xiong Yu's stomach has begun to scream uncontrollably.

Xiong Yu strode towards the back door, Xiong Yu had just taken a step when he saw the old woman hurrying towards her, wasn't this the old woman of Old Man Gan? Why was her face so anxious? Could it be that she was going to do something important?

Xiong Yu stood at the door and looked at the old woman, Xiong Yu suddenly noticed a trace of abnormality, because the old woman's steps seemed to be coming towards Xiong Yu.

As soon as the old woman saw Xiong Yu, she quickened her pace again, and the old woman rushed to Xiong Yu and gasped: "Little brother, it's not good, something is wrong." ”
