Reborn Farmhouse's Small Restaurant [Wears Book]

Chapter 45

Su Junxia got Du Qingchen's words, and finally let go of his worries. He was afraid that Tao Xiude would lie to him, and he was afraid that Du Qingchen would be angry because of the rumors in the town, but now it seems that he can let go of these two worries, and Su Junxia is relieved , hurriedly said: "I, in fact, came to apologize. I want to apologize to Uncle Du for the previous matter. I didn't mean it. Butler Chen asked me to do it. For this, I brought some supplements."

Tao Xiu De gave him one thousand taels of silver to start him, so Su Junxia is not short of money now, and he buys supplements when he says to buy supplements, and even the clothes and fabrics on his body are much better.

Du Qingchen smiled and called Father Du, but as soon as he went out, he saw Tao Xiude coming to the door.

"Oh! What a coincidence!" Tao Xiude saw Su Junxia as soon as he entered the door, and said with a smile.

Su Junxia was stunned for a moment, then stood up immediately, holding his hands to the side.

"It's alright, just sit!" Tao Xiude greeted Du Qingchen, entered the room with a smile, and sat down casually. This time, he didn't care that the Du's stool was poor, which would stain his clothes.

"Why is Mr. Tao here?" Is there anything else? Du Qingchen especially wanted to ask the last sentence.

"Young Master Tao, Young Master Tao, it's too unfamiliar, I call you Brother Du, you also call me Brother Tao!" Tao Xiude shook his folding fan and said with a smile.

"Young Master Tao is too polite."

"You are too polite. By the way! Where's your brother?" Tao Xiude looked around for a week, "I heard from Liu Tai today that they are going to the provincial capital the day after tomorrow, just in time. I'm going back too, why don't you go all the way with me?" Tao Xiude said, smiling softly, "Stay at my house by the way." "Young Master

Tao... You're welcome, my brother, just stay at the inn." Du Qingchen hesitated. He said, he was a little confused about what Tao Xiude was here for, just to show his favor?

In fact, Tao Xiude was really just here to show his favor. Du Qingchen owed him his life. Even though Du Qingchen didn't want to be the servant of the Tao family, he also wanted to befriend him. Anyway, Du Qingchen would only help Tao in the future. home, and will not harm the Tao family.

"How can I live in an inn? Liu Tai is already living in my house, and there is no shortage of them. They all live there. In this way, we can go to the exam together, so that no one will fall behind and miss it."

Du Qingchen chuckled . , I simply called Du Rulin to come, "Master Tao invited you to live with Liu Tai in the Tao's house, what do you think?"

Du Rulin was about to open his mouth to refuse, but Tao Xiude was already shaking his folding fan, and said casually, "My family has Famous teacher, I can prepare you and Liu Tai for the exam. When he was an official, he participated in the question-setting of the Tongsheng exam. Unfortunately, he resigned from the office and went into hiding after his career was unfavorable. Now, he is at my house and is responsible for teaching my younger brother. Sisters."

Du Rulin silently swallowed the words that came to his lips, and stammered: "Then... Liu Tai, are you going too?"

"Brother Liu Xian is here for this reason, and he still wants to be with me. My master is asking for an article! Brother Du Xian, don't you want to ask for advice?"

"I want to..." Du Rulin replied in a low voice, and in front of the famous teacher, he had to bow his head. Besides, even if Master Liu has bowed his head, he insists, it is meaningless!

When Du Qingchen heard the words, he knew that Tao Xiude's move was right on target, Liu Tai and several other students would definitely not refuse Tao Xiude's invitation, so they stopped insisting, and said with a smile: "If this is the case, my brother will be in trouble. Master Tao took care of him." Du Qingchen bowed his hands.

"You're welcome." Tao Xiude smiled with satisfaction.

"But Master Tao didn't want to go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, why did he suddenly want to go back to the city?" Du Qingchen still remembered the reason why Tao Xiude came here in the first place. Tao Xiude was on his way back to his hometown to worship his ancestors and made a detour to visit Master Liu. of.

"Yeah! It's not that I was stumped by something, so my father has sent the third brother back to his hometown, and I have nothing to do with me." Tao Xiude shook the folding fan and replied.

After sending Tao Xiude and Su Junxia away, Father Du came out. He originally wanted to go to the provincial capital with Du Rulin to take care of him, but now it seems that there is no hope. After all, if Du Rulin lives in the Tao family, he is Decided not to go.

Father Du sighed with his hands behind his back, and returned to the house with a heavy heart. Du Qingchen hurriedly chased after him.

"Father, if Ru Lin wants to live in the Tao's house, you won't be able to follow him." Du Qingchen chuckled.

"So what?!" Father Du glared angrily, don't think he forgave Du Qingchen so easily, what happened before has not been made clear!

Du Qingchen leaned over and smiled and said, "Father, the family is going to build a house, so you can help me grow peppers at home, and then watch the people who build the house! Su Dong and I have to go back to town, we can't get out of here. "

Father Du hesitated, sighed and nodded, "That's the only way."

"By the way, Dad, can you give me the money from before, I want to buy a shop."

"What kind of shop are you going to buy, manpower? Enough! Don't mess around, I think just a restaurant is fine."

"But Dad, I want to buy back our family's ancestral property. I promised you, you forgot?" Du Qingchen said.

Father Du was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered the Chen family who had just been raided and escorted into the provincial capital. The Chen family was raided, and the property under their name would also be sold to fill the national treasury. They finally had the opportunity to buy back their former shop. Father Du's eyes turned slightly red, but he didn't expect that they would be able to get their ancestral property back so quickly.

The existence of ancestral property, even if it is tasteless, even if it is bought at a loss, but for a traditional person like Du Fu, it must be bought. Du Qingchen knew this and thought about buying back the restaurant to resolve the problem. The crux of Du Fu and Du Rulin's hearts. In fact, ancestry or something is not so important to him.

Father Du raised his hand and pinched the corner of his eyes, suppressing the sourness of his nose, and said, "Here it is for you, it's all for you, use it!"

"Thank you dad!" Du Qingchen chuckled.

The next day, Du Qingchen and Su Dong also moved to the town and lived in the firewood house where Du Qingchen and Du Rulin once lived together. Su Dong didn't dislike it, but Su mother couldn't see her only son living such a life. They brought things such as beds, quilts, mosquito nets, etc. These are things that used to be Su Dong, and now it is difficult for Su Dong to go back, so Mother Su asked someone to bring them to Su Dong.

Du Qingchen looked at the familiar quilt, turned and left calmly, pretending not to see it.

However, Su Dong was looking forward to the life in the small restaurant, and even went to the market to buy a piglet, because Du Qingchen had promised him that he could raise pigs in the backyard.

Du Qingchen looked at the daughter-in-law who was standing in the yard holding the pig, and felt a little scalp tingling. He leaned over and asked earnestly, "Do you have to raise it?"

Su Dong was stunned, does Du Qingchen want to go back on it? !

"Okay, okay!" Without waiting for Su Dong to say anything, Du Qingchen confessed himself first, and silently warned himself that this is not a pig, this is a testimony of the friendship between Su Dong and Du's father, for the friendship between father-in-law and daughter-in-law, to be a son Husband's, you have to make concessions, make concessions...

When it's a little older, it will be slaughtered to make braised pork! Du Qingchen thought fiercely.

At present, the pig is only a dozen pounds, not as long as a human arm. It looks cute, and it is white and tender, but it is not big. After it looks so fat and big, it can still be raised for a while. Yes, Du Qingchen also recognized it.

Father Su heard that Su Dong wanted to raise pigs, and happily came over to help build the pigsty. Du Qingchen watched desperately that the pigsty was built in less than one noon. He grabbed the arm of Father Su who was about to leave and asked. "Dad, don't you think there's something wrong with raising pigs in a restaurant?"

"Is there?" Father Su scratched his head blankly, and quickly realized what Du Qingchen meant, waved his hand and said, "Where are you from the countryside? There are so many things to worry about, and you have a lot of things to do. I see that you have potted plants in the lobby, what is the use of that thing, other than occupying space, you can't eat or drink."

Oh, so it's still his, isn't it? !

Du Qingchen continued to sigh, shook his head silently, turned and entered the room.

After Su Dong put the piglet in the brand new pigsty, he also followed into the house. He felt that Du Qingchen didn't seem very happy, um, very unhappy.

Su Dong walked over and said apprehensively, "Don't you really want to raise pigs? Then...or else, forget it, I'll return the pigs."

Du Qingchen was stunned, and immediately waved, "It's alright, alright!" This is Du Qingchen Father and Su Dong worked together to win, he couldn't refuse, otherwise Father Du and Su Dong would be very disappointed, and the war friendship that was finally established before would also fall apart.

"Keep it up, keep it up! Just take care of it diligently!" Du Qingchen said.

"I will!" Su Dong heard the words and nodded hurriedly.

Tao Xiude was about to return to the provincial capital. Before leaving, he visited the Du family restaurant. After eating in Tao Xiude, Du Qingchen specially invited him to go around the backyard, "This is my husband. What do you think of Mr. Tao?" Tao

Xiude looked at the tender and clean piglets in the pigsty for a long time, and finally found his voice and said through gritted teeth, "Brother Du! I didn't know you were such a different person! I thought you were an elegant person!"

Du Qingchen shook his head silently, "No, I'm a layman. I'm busy every day because of the stinky smell, and I can't get up."

Tao Xiude finally ran away and vowed that he would never step into the Du's restaurant again until the pig disappeared. One step further, before leaving, he threatened Du Qingchen, this restaurant has him but no pigs, and there are pigs without him!

But Du Qingchen didn't care. After all, Tao Xiude was going back to the provincial capital. Even if there were no pigs, Tao Xiude wouldn't be able to come.

However, Du Qingchen will soon not have to worry about the existence of pigs, because the Chen family's property has begun to sell, and with the Tao family as support, Su Junxia's acquisition of the Chen family's property in the county is very smooth, and Tao Xiude even left Su Junxia a letter The doorman, specially helping him with his affairs, you must know that Su Junxia doesn't even know a big character.

Du Qingchen also went to Su Junxia specifically for the restaurant outside the private school. He couldn't grab Su Junxia, ​​who had Tao's backstage at the moment. Fortunately, Su Junxia didn't despise Du Qingchen because of his sudden wealth, and treated him as before, even more respectful.

"Don't worry, Boss Du! I will never get involved in the shop you fancy! Not to mention the restaurant outside the private school, it's in the county seat. By the way, are you in the county seat? I'll leave you two restaurants. What?" Su Junxia said sincerely.

Du Qingchen bowed his hands, "No need, I don't have so many people right now, and I don't plan to go that far. I'll just do business in the town first."

"Oh, that's it!" Su Junxia nodded, "Then, Boss Du, If you need my help, you must speak."

"Okay." Du Qingchen nodded and left Su Junxia's house.

Outside the door, Luo Qingzheng came in with Yang Liu in his arms, just in time to meet Du Qingchen, Luo Qing's clothes also changed drastically, and he was also dressed in good fabrics. Seeing Du Qingchen, Luo Qing smiled and greeted him, " Boss Du, what a coincidence!"

"It's not a coincidence! After all, this is Boss Su's home."

Luo Qing understood Du Qingchen's move, and couldn't help lowering his head with a blushing face.

Du Qingchen said with a smile: "Is the good day coming? When will I have to obey! It's just that you don't dislike the light I gave you!

" Treasure!" Luo Qing said quickly, and after speaking, he bowed his head in embarrassment.

Du Qingchen frowned, "You two, it's very strange! Boss Su said just now that he wants to keep two restaurants for me in the county town, you are like this again, what's wrong with me? Why are you doing this to me? It's too much. ?"

When Luo Qing heard the words, he raised his head slightly, and seemed a little embarrassed, "Boss Du, don't worry about it, we have no other intentions, we just want to be friends with you, I know that the Tao family is just using him, don't worry about it. Seeing that he is very beautiful now, but he can't get involved in the real affairs. It is the Tao family's servant who is in charge. I thought, if the Tao family wants Su Junxia to do bad things in the future, I am afraid. At that time, he didn't even have anyone to discuss, so he just thought..."

Du Qingchen sighed, "So, do you want me to give him advice at critical moments in the future?"

"Almost! I know, Boss Du. You have a good mind. Actually, I also know that Mr. Tao looked for you at first, but you didn't want to, so it was Su Junxia's turn. I was worried, maybe things you don't want..."

"Don't worry! I I don't want to be because I don't want to be someone's servant and be controlled by others, it's not that the Tao family is bad." Du Qingchen said.

Luo Qing nodded lightly, "In this way, we can feel more at ease. In fact, we are really afraid."

"Don't worry too much, even though Su Junxia can't manage too many things, he can only delegate power to the disciple of the Tao family, but his temperament is simple and kind, and he has not changed his attitude greatly because of his riches. The rich and the noble cannot be promiscuous, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, he is a good person, and it is his character that Tao Xiude values. Involving the Tao family. A cautious person like Tao Xiude trusts Su Junxia, ​​and you should trust him too, nothing will happen to him."

Luo Qing nodded slowly, feeling a little more at ease.

"Besides, good people have good rewards! Su Junxia has a good reputation now! I reckon, this is a hundred miles away, and now the most famous person is him, I'm afraid there are still many people waiting in line to thank him for saving them. What about his child! His road is going smoothly! Don't worry!"

This is why Tao Xiude chose Su Junxia after him, such unique conditions are not available to anyone. Moreover, Su Junxia is a pure-hearted person, and you can rest assured that he will not do evil things like the Chen family to implicate the master family. In Tao Xiude's eyes, such a candidate is indeed second only to him, and is an excellent candidate.

Having said that, Luo Qing also understood a lot of doubts and felt a lot more at ease. He breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Boss Du, if you need anything in the future, you must speak up, I will talk to Su Junxia. , I will definitely try my best to help you!"

"The two of you are saying the same thing now, you really deserve to be married." Du Qingchen joked.

Luo Qing's face turned red again.

Two days later, the restaurant outside the private school changed its owner. Du Qingchen also asked Master Liu to write an inscription, engraved a plaque and hung it up, and wrote the words 'Dujia Restaurant', which made Master Liu shook his head and sighed, saying that Du Qingchen is no good. Culturally, I couldn't even think of a good restaurant name, Du Qingchen just smiled and didn't refute.

It was originally the Du Family Restaurant, but now it is called the Du Family Restaurant, isn't it just right? At least, Father Du is very satisfied with the name. Every time he walks to the door, he will happily look at the plaque with his hands behind his back and laugh a few times. Although he does not know a few words, among the words he knows, there is a Du So every time I see the familiar Du characters on the plaque, Du Fu is in a good mood.

Du Qingchen left Du Youcai to continue his business in the small restaurant, almost full-time in charge of take-out meals, and recruited several new apprentices to help the restaurant in the restaurant, Du Fugui can now replace Du Qingchen's position as the head chef, and Du Qingchen also I gave Du Youcai and Du Fugui a wage increase and asked them to take new apprentices, while I let go and just supervise the quality, or occasionally teach them new dishes. Most of the time, they stay in the lobby and cook. The shopkeeper's life has become a lot more leisurely in an instant.

Du Qingchen and Su Dong also moved to the room at the back of the restaurant. Well, Chen's house was renovated very well later, and it was very suitable for living, much better than the previous small restaurant.

Obviously living in the backyard of the restaurant, Su Dong still misses the pigs he raised in the small restaurant, and he has to rush to take care of them every day. Even if Du Youcai swears that he will take good care of the piglets in the small restaurant, it will not help. Su Dong must Don't worry if you see it with your own eyes.

In the restaurant, Du Qingchen was lying on the counter and saw Su Dong who had just returned from feeding the pigs in the small restaurant. He said resentfully, "Why do I think you treat pigs better than me?"

Su Dong turned around blankly, Du Qingchen immediately put on a pitiful expression The expression came, Su Dong was amused, couldn't help raising his hand to cover his mouth, looked around for a week embarrassedly, there were customers coming and going in the lobby, and the second was busy, Su Dong walked to the counter, very embarrassed He lowered his voice, "How can anyone compare themselves to pigs! Are you stupid?"

"What's wrong with pigs? In your heart, I'm not as good as a pig! You are thinking about feeding it every day, but you don't even think about feeding it. I, I haven't eaten lunch yet!" Du Qingchen pouted his lips aggrieved, deliberately making fun of Su Dong.

"Really!" Su Dong believed, "Well, let Fugui cook it for you! Or cook a little more for you when cooking, so that you can eat it evenly."

"He's so busy, how can he have that kind of skill! You don't know, and you don't know what's wrong. When the Chen family is doing business here, they lose money every day. I cook!" Du Qingchen pouted and continued to tease him.

"I'm so busy! Then, should I also help run the hall, or go to the back kitchen to help?" Su Dong felt that it was really bad for him to keep thinking about pigs, and he should stay and help.

Du Qingchen waved his hand, "No, there is no shortage of this, it's just a matter of wealth and honor. After all, he is the chef!"

Su Dong looked at Du Qingchen with a suspicious and reproachful expression, "He is so busy, why don't you help him? What to do? You go to the kitchen to help him for a while, and he can take a break, and then you can cook your own meals by the way, so that you can exchange for wealth and honor, and both of you can rest and eat. "

"Uh..." Du Qingchen, who had successfully led him into the ditch, rubbed his nose embarrassingly and said, "Actually, he doesn't seem to be that busy either, he's busy, he's fine."

"You lied to me again." Su Dong is used to it.

"No! It's really busy! Look, are there many guests?" Du Qingchen pointed to the lobby, Su Dong looked around for a week, it was indeed full, and even when he came in, he saw there were guests outside the restaurant wait.

Su Dong asked strangely, "Yes! There are really a lot of people, but the Chen family was here before, didn't they say they have been losing money?"

Du Qingchen smiled proudly, "That's because I intercepted the business of the private school, they Of course, I will lose it, but now! The small restaurant continues to serve the meals of the private school, but there are fresh dishes prepared by me in the restaurant. Therefore, even the restaurant still does not have the business of the private school, but some people come here to try it. Fresh."

The decoration of the Chen family is still very good. The space in the back kitchen has been expanded a lot. All kinds of kitchen utensils are complete, and there is even an oven. It is a pity that the chef of the Chen family is mediocre, and there is no private school. In a small town, the Chen family restaurant can't do it without paying.

But he is different. Although he and Du Fugui's cooking skills are both average, the dishes are novel. Moreover, the cooking skills are not good, so the seasonings come together. Even if the knife craftsmanship is worse, Du Qingchen has done it. A lot of seasonings come out, such as prickly ash, which can be sprinkled on most meals to increase the taste. There is also a stock soup in the kitchen for fresh seasoning. You know, there was no such thing as chicken essence and MSG in ancient times. , all rely on the broth to enhance the freshness, whether there are fresh dishes, the taste can be said to be a world of difference.

Coupled with some miscellaneous things, and taking some easy ways, the food of the Du family has always been delicious. Although it is not comparable to real chefs, it is also proud of most chefs. Naturally, the family is prosperous and business is booming. .

"By the way, let's eat hot pot at night!" Du Qingchen chuckled. "I ground some sauce to give you something fresh."

It's a pity that people here rarely grow sesame seeds, so he couldn't find enough sesame seeds to grind sesame paste. He just made some peanut butter and followed up with him. It took him a long time to mix the seasonings such as peppercorns, and then he found the right ratio. He came up with peanut butter that can be eaten in hot pot, which happened to be eaten in the evening.

Su Dong doesn't know what hot pot is, but Du Qingchen always comes up with some fresh dishes, so Su Dong didn't think too much, smiled and nodded, "Okay!"
