Chapter 93 Gambling
Nianfu was so angry that he started to get angry again. He hated such merchants the most. They were not responsible for the goods once they were sold. Why should he?
Young Master Ouyang glanced sideways at the shopkeeper, "I don't know what the restaurants in the whole capital are like, but Master, I have never eaten shrimp without gizzards since I was born. Today is the first time I met you here, and I still have it."
What's the matter with your full mouth of teeth? Do you think you can explain it away with just a few words?"
Seeing the change in the shopkeeper's expression, he said slowly, "Of course, you can rest assured. Master, I did not come from the palace, but I am just a foreigner who has just arrived. Maybe you have never heard of my small hometown.
But I called you here today just to tell you that the capital is not the only place in the world that has good restaurants and good cooks. The world is so big and there are so many talented people, so don’t talk about the palace at all times, as if you have too many
It’s like something extraordinary.”
Ouyang Zhuang felt a little embarrassed when he heard these insinuations. He saw the country brother pick up a shrimp with two slender fingers as white as jade, raised his eyebrows and said, "I know that if you can open a restaurant in the capital, there must be someone behind your back."
There are some tricks, but what I want to say today is that the shrimp cooking is terrible!" After a pause, he sighed again, "This Hongxinglou is nothing more than that."
Nianfu's eyes were shining as he watched the arrogant young master Ouyang throw away the shrimps, and washed his hands with disdain. He wanted to rush forward and shout "Long live the Queen!"
Hahahaha, seeing the shopkeeper's face red with anger and his thick neck, Nianfu felt that this slap was extremely satisfying.
Especially the tone at the end, that pause, that turning point, and that sigh, it's so queen-like that it makes people want to die.
Of course, it was the other party who was aggrieved. As an ally, Nianfu firmly supported her queen, and stepped forward very coquettishly, holding her voice and saying, "Young master, the things here are so poorly made. This sand
It tastes fishy and bitter after eating it, and I don’t know if it will cause diarrhea, so why don’t we go to another restaurant?”
Even though he knew she did it on purpose, Ouyang Kang also trembled unbearably, but he finally said yes and looked back at Ouyang Zhuang and Mulan. "I'm sorry, I've offended my younger siblings, so I'll change this to
Brother Yu, I’ll be your host, please.”
This... I haven't given you the money yet, can you leave? Ouyang Huilan is a kind girl, and she glanced at her second brother uneasily. Does the eldest brother mean to eat the King's meal? He has never done such a thing since he was a child.
Not used to it!
If she's not used to it, how can Ouyang Zhuang get used to it? But no matter what, I can't write two Ouyangs in one stroke, so I bite the bullet and let's go.
But the shopkeeper quit, "Please stay!"
He strode to Ouyang Kang and said, "Young Master said our shrimps are not good. So what about yours? Do you want to refuse the bill with such a few words?"
Ouyang Zhuang was unhappy when he heard this. "Shopkeeper, please open your eyes and see clearly how much we have moved these shrimps? Didn't we call your guys as soon as they were served?"
The shopkeeper clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "But you can't let us avoid this order with just a few words, right? Since this young master said you have had better ones, please sign up and see if it's true.
No matter which famous chef it comes from, we can be convinced."
Ouyang Kang smiled contemptuously, but before he could answer this time, Nianfu finally found a chance to show off, "Why do you need a famous chef to show off your skills? Even a little girl like me knows that you need to pick sandbags to make shrimps. You guys
These restaurant owners have no idea, and it really makes people laugh."
"Okay!" The shopkeeper was feeling aggrieved, but finally found an opportunity and immediately pointed at her, "Since you are so capable, sister, why don't you show your skills so that we can be convinced! Otherwise!
If you say so, you are just looking for trouble and deliberately causing trouble!"
Nianfu's eyes widened, "What are you doing? How did you find her?"
But without giving her a chance to speak, Ouyang Kang squinted at the shopkeeper and said domineeringly, "If you want her to show her hand, she will show her hand. Who do you think you are? You don't want to use provocation to steal the master."
Like this!”
The shopkeeper choked for a long time, and when he looked at Ouyang Kang, he was not only angry, but also a little gloomy, "What do you think I should do, Mr. Yi?"
"This question should be asked of you." Young Master Ouyang said angrily, "If you want to ask someone to teach you, you must show your sincerity first. Otherwise, why would you ask someone to take action?"
"Okay!" The shopkeeper promised solemnly, "In that case, I will boldly invite this lady to have a competition. If the shrimp you make is more delicious than ours, then I will destroy this Hongxinglou restaurant.
Significantly, I will never make this dish again. But if the girl’s cooking doesn’t taste good, sir, how will you treat it?”
Nian Fu looked at him with a fierce look and felt a little scared, but Ouyang Kang followed suit and said, "Then I will also smash her sign, and she will never be allowed to cook this dish from now on!"
It doesn't matter if she doesn't cook shrimp, but Nian Fu blinked in confusion. Does she have a signature?
Young Master Ouyang blinked back, "I'm not afraid of anything. Let's make one now."
Well, even the arrogant Ouyang Mulan couldn't help but feel that his elder brother was a bit shameless. Can the sign of a restaurant be the same as that of a little girl like Sister Mu?
But Young Master Ouyang is determined to be such a rogue to the end. If you can do it, we can do it too. As for the so-called fairness, is that such a crazy thing? Has anyone given it to them? Then why should they give it to others!
Protect shortcomings.
Extreme protection against shortcomings. This is Ouyang Zhuang's redefinition and understanding of his elder brother.
The shopkeeper's eyes darkened and he spoke, "Since the young master said so, it's better than this. If we lose, then I will kneel down in public and kowtow to you and this lady to admit my mistake, and I will never set foot in the capital again.
If you lose, please take back what you just said, admit that you were wrong, kowtow to us and admit your mistake, and you will never be able to set foot in the capital again, how about that?"
This bet is a bit big.
Smashing a signboard or something is a small matter, but if you really kneel down in public, it is a big deal. The man has gold at his knees. If Ouyang Kang kneels down, it will not only be embarrassing for him, but also the entire Ouyang family.
Ouyang Zhuang thinks that his elder brother is not so stupid to do this for a little neighbor girl, right?
But Ouyang Kang just agreed.
"good!"
Young Master Ouyang turned around and looked at Nianfu, "Cheer up and teach them well, don't embarrass me!"
But brother, can you trust me so much? It’s hard for Nianfu to show weakness after being so strongly supported. Anyway, things are already like this. At worst, he will lose face along with Ouyang Kang and hide back in the countryside.
She stepped forward bravely and added a supplementary clause, "Shopkeeper, since you want to compare with me, you have to invite someone to be a witness. In order to prevent you and me from having our own opinions, we have to invite some unrelated talents.
.”
"Okay!" The shopkeeper pointed out, "How about today we do a competition in front of the diners all over the floor. Who is doing well and who is not doing well? Let the guests have the final say!"
Okay. He turned around and looked at each other with Ouyang Kang. They both had the same meaning in their eyes. However, Ouyang Kang said to his younger siblings, "You have nothing to do here, go back first."
Ouyang Zhuang knew that he didn't want to implicate them. Anyway, they were relatively new faces in the capital, and even if they lost, not many people would recognize them.
But Ouyang Mulan refused, "I won't leave!"
Seeing her expression of excitement and waiting for a good show, Ouyang Zhuang somewhat understood his mother's pain. This girl seemed to be born with a missing muscle. Why didn't she know how to be afraid? How embarrassing would it be if she lost?
"Second brother, if you are afraid, go back first. Anyway, I'm not afraid."
After all, they are biological siblings. Even though Ouyang Mulan is missing a muscle, she is terrifyingly sharp, and she immediately pricks Ouyang Zhuang's little heart. But after she said so, how can she let Ouyang Zhuang leave?
Damn it! Second Young Master Ouyang also uttered a curse word in his heart, brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers in battle, anyway, there are already two people named Ouyang who are going to be embarrassed, one more of him is not enough!
"Sister, what are you talking about? We are a family, so naturally we should advance together and retreat together."
"Well done, you are worthy of being my brother!" Ouyang Mulan patted him generously, and wanted to pat Young Master Ouyang, but he dodged him without leaving a trace. This sister seemed to be quite strong, and she didn't
Did you see the woman restraining her distorted expression when she took the photo of Ouyang Zhuang?
Ouyang Kang didn't want to accept such support, "Just wait in the room and we'll come as soon as we go."
Ouyang Mulan still wanted to follow and watch the fun, but this time she was stopped by Ouyang Zhuang, "The kitchen is greasy, what's the point?"
Staying is already a strong support, there is really no need to go out and show off your face and embarrass yourself so completely.
But the shopkeeper seemed to be determined to win back the victory, and directly ordered people to go to the back to move the stove and spatula, "I will invite the young master and sister to come down soon, and we will compete in this lobby!"
No problem. Ouyang Kang acted cool and nonchalant in front of people, but when they left, Young Master Ouyang immediately came closer and asked Nianfu, "How is it? Is it okay?"
It turns out that brother, you are not so confident? Nianfu Hongguoguo looked at him and told him silently, does it make sense to ask this now?
Ouyang Kang withdrew his gaze and thought seriously, "Then get ready. If you need anything done, or if you need any seasoning tools, let me know right away."
"I want that."
With a finger pointing at the blessing, Ouyang Mulan immediately ran over to get it.
"Toothpick? What do you want a toothpick for?" Do you want to pick the shrimp's teeth? Ouyang Mulan looked puzzled.
But Sister Mu decided not to explain, "I can't explain it, you'll know it when you do it."
Miss Ouyang's eyes were bright and she blinked, "Then I'll give you a hand soon."
Do you want to go have some fun? Ouyang Kangqing coughed and said, "Sister, you're a girl, so you'd better sit in the room and watch."
"No!" Ouyang Mulan hugged the toothpick box tightly with a determined look on her face, "We are a family and we must advance together and retreat together." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
