Chapter 260: Visiting Son-in-Law
Seeing that the business of the restaurant is becoming more and more stable, Guoer's sense of accomplishment has increased to a higher level. These days, there are many colleagues who come to inquire after smelling the smell of mutton. But as soon as they found out that this is Yao Ji's property, they all called again. Retreat. Although Silence is still far away from the Beirong battlefield and cannot come back, the deputy commander Changling made this sign still firmly suppressed those who wanted to compete for a piece of the pie.
Guoer regretted that she had sold the recipe for her favorite and best pickled fish and fish in soy pot to Juxianglou. If she had known it, she would keep it for herself. It would be another excellent signature dish.
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, but can she try to make the two dishes of old bowl fish and boiled fish?
Although I have never cooked these two dishes in my previous life, I have eaten them many times. The cooking methods are actually the same. If you really put some effort into it, there should be no problem.
There are also fish balls. You can also try this. As long as these fish dishes can be served, you don’t have to worry about the guests not liking it.
Only when a restaurant has its own signature dishes can it stand out from the crowd of peers. When the time comes, build a fish pond on the farm. As long as the ingredients needed in the restaurant are provided by yourself, you can do your best to save money and trouble.
Guoer has even thought about the dishes to be launched in spring and summer. In spring and summer, it is getting hotter day by day. At this time, whether there is air conditioning or not, not many people eat the hotpot mutton.
When it comes to dishes suitable for spring and summer, Guoer also has a lot of dishes in mind, such as authentic Shaanxi Liangpi, her favorite in the previous life; cold noodles, double pepper chicken noodles, corn flour battered fish, cold fish, and All kinds of cold dishes can be properly presented.
Let’s serve some desserts after the meal, which should not be too elaborate. For example, cakes. In my previous life, I used flour to make the soft and sweet honey cake. You can also use cornmeal to make it. In comparison, the honey cake made from wheat flour is softer and softer. The cornmeal ones are a little rough and dry, but they are all equally sweet and delicious.
Yu Guoer was thinking in her mind and writing down it quickly with her pen, and her saliva dripped onto the paper unknowingly.
The first snow this year has not arrived yet, and the weather is dry and cold.
It wasn't until she returned to Laiyang that she realized that there had been no significant rainfall or snow in Laiyang since the autumn harvest.
Father Yao watched the sky at night with his hands behind his back: It seems that this year is a drought year.
There have been several snowfalls at this time in previous years, but not one this year. Normally, the old man wouldn't be so worried, but this year is different. Winter wheat is planted in the ground, and I don't know if it will be affected.
Yao Tiezhu didn't know how to do it anymore, so he had to ask Guo'er. Guo'er knew that wheat fields should be watered in winter. I remember that the older generation called this winter irrigation.
Guo'er: "It definitely needs to be watered, but be careful to choose it during the day when the temperature is higher. You can't water it after the sun goes down and the temperature drops."
As for why, Guo'er didn't remember clearly. Anyway, it would be fine if he just followed what he had experienced in his previous life.
Yao Tiezhu now trusted his niece very much. Hearing this, he nodded and hurried out to make arrangements.
After they came back, the restaurant in Laiyang City was also in good condition in the hands of Yao Sanzhu. The Pleasant Goat signboard was hung up, waiting to be opened at another date.
Guoer followed Bao to the shop on Dongliu Street first. After Xiaohong got married and became pregnant, it was difficult for her to earn money anymore, so now the manager of the shop is Sun.
Guo'er had a good or bad impression of Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Sun was gentle and polite to everyone she met in the village, and spoke very kindly. However, she was always shrewd. She knew that the mother-in-laws of the two families would not deal with her, but she still behaved in front of others.
You won't be offended by either side of the Eight Directions Linglong.
Guo'er felt that Mrs. Sun's temperament was somewhat similar to that of her mother, Mrs. Bao. If used well, such a person could become a powerful assistant.
Mrs. Sun seemed to be adapting well to the shop. Seeing Guo'er and her daughter coming over, she quickly put down her work, served tea and poured water, and waited attentively. Without waiting for them to ask questions, she told them everything about the business of the shop.
Ten said it again.
Guo'er secretly looked at Mrs. Sun. In such a short period of time, it seemed that Mrs. Sun had really worked hard to achieve this step. Guo'er had the same idea as Mrs. Bao. As long as she didn't steal from women, she would be happy to help her.
After sitting in the shop for a while, Guoer decided to go to the restaurant and take a look.
There were still some unprepared places. Mrs. Bao was sitting there chatting with Ms. Sun about the latest gossip in the village. She didn't want to go out any more, so Guoer simply went out alone.
Arriving at an open space in front of the new shop, Guoer asked the driver to stop and was about to get out. When she lifted the curtain, she saw her father and two middle-aged men walking out of the store, arm in arm. Guoer took a closer look and saw
They were two people they didn't know, so they sat in the car and didn't move, planning to wait until the two people left before going out.
Yao Sanzhu sent his two friends outside. The three of them were laughing and chatting very affectionately. One of them had a very obscene smile on his face and winked at Yao Sanzhu:
"Yao Sanye, you are not interesting enough. Brothers are enjoying the blessing together. Let's go to the Peony House to have a good time. What's wrong with you? You are not interesting enough."
The other one also patted his chest and said, "That's right, my treat today, brother, is just a gift to Yao Sanye for the opening of his new restaurant. How about the girls from Peony House compete with each other in their understanding and understanding? I guarantee that you will go to the next one."
I still want to go back."
The two of them laughed meaningfully as they spoke. Yao Sanzhu also shook his head and said:
"Brothers are not as lucky as you two. With the elders in the family and the tigress keeping a close eye on you, how can you dare to go to such a relaxing place? Besides, the restaurant is about to open, and I am busy all day long. Waiting for the business to open
The last two must come to support me."
The three of them talked and laughed for a while before the two said goodbye and left.
Guo'er got out of the carriage with a sullen expression. Just now they spoke without hesitation and their voices were loud. It was difficult for Guo'er to pretend not to hear.
Yao Sanzhu was about to go back to the store, but when he turned around, he saw his daughter getting out of the carriage, and said with a busy smile:
"Hey! My daughter didn't say a word when she came over, and I didn't bother to look over here. Who did you come with, your mother?"
Thinking of what he had just said to his friend, Yao Sanzhu couldn't help but look at the carriage with guilt, but he didn't see Mrs. Bao coming down.
Guoer stepped forward with a straight face: "My mother didn't come, it was just me."
He raised his chin and asked rudely in the direction of those two people, "Who are they?"
Yao Sanzhu hurriedly explained: "Dad's two friends are business owners nearby and acquaintances."
The two of them walked towards the shop as they talked.
Yao Sanzhu pointed at the surrounding furnishings and said in a seductive tone:
"Since my daughter is here, let me check and see how dad has organized this restaurant. If there is anything that I am not satisfied with, I will change it. Last time your second uncle came over, he walked around and couldn't find anything bad."
Yao Sanzhu looked around at the newly decorated lobby with satisfaction, and looked at his daughter as if she was waiting for praise.
Guo'er came here for the second time. He took a quick look around and said nothing. The decoration here is consistent with the style of the one in Changling, just like those chain stores in later generations, such as the facade, signboards, and the clothes of the store clerks.
Everything is exactly the same, so when customers go to other stores, they will know it is the same owner.
Guoer's black grape looked at her biological father, raised the corner of her mouth and asked:
"What is the Peony Building they are talking about?"
Yao Sanzhu was startled. His daughter actually heard it. He leaned closer and said in a low voice:
"Children, stop asking about messy places."
Guo'er: "Dad has been there? How else would he know it was a mess?"
"Nonsense! Where have I been?"
Yao Sanzhu quickly denied it.
Guo'er looked unbelieving: "If Dad wants to go, don't go with this group of people. They don't look like good people. How about I go talk to the eldest uncle and the second uncle and let them spend time with me?"
you go?"
Yao Sanzhu almost jumped up: "Who said you are going? You girl, don't talk nonsense. Dad has never been to that place. When you go back, don't tell your uncle and others. And your mother, don't hurt me!"
Guo'er looked at her father's nervous expression and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "That's good, I'm afraid that Dad wants to go, so I need to find a companion for him."
Yao Sanzhu was so angry that he glared. This girl was not considerate at all. She was never vague when reporting her father's case. If this was really just nonsense to the boss and the second child, the old man would know it. Then there are other things.
What's good about him? The old man has such a temper that when he gets angry, he will take off his shoes and slap him in public. He can't afford to embarrass that person.
And the tigress at home, I feel chills on my back just thinking about it.
He put on a flattering smile and said to his daughter:
"Dad knows that my daughter is joking with him. Don't worry, your dad is sober. He will never get involved in those messy things. Besides, you don't know how much money your dad has? How can he spend time and alcohol outside?"
"
If you think about it, it's true. When my father was asked to take charge of the shops in the city, we were afraid that he would go to places he shouldn't go if his mind got crazy, so he was only given management rights, but he couldn't see or touch financial matters.
.
So regardless of Mr. Yao's majesty in front of others, apart from the fixed amount of monthly silver in his pocket, he has no place for extra money.
Guo'er blinked at her father with a trusting look on her face: "I believe in you, Dad."
Yao Sanzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Returning to Dongliu Street to pick up Mrs. Bao, the two were about to get on the carriage and go back when Mrs. Bao suddenly remembered and said:
"etc."
Turning around, she returned to the shop and walked to the counter where the cloths were displayed. She selected several muslin materials of different colors and asked Mrs. Sun to cut a few feet of them for her and take them away.
Guoer came over and asked in confusion: "Mom, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Bao stared at Mrs. Sun as she quickly cut out the fabric and explained: "Your cousin Shuanzi is getting married soon. Mom will pull a few feet of floral cloth for him and send it over."
Sun also knew Shuanzi who worked in the workshop and knew that he was He's nephew. After hearing what Bao said, she couldn't help but ask:
"This young man Shuanzi is quite nice. I wonder whose daughter you are talking about?"
Mrs. Bao: "You have also seen that girl. She is June, the daughter of Carpenter Chen, the master of our carpentry workshop."
Mrs. Sun suddenly realized: "It turns out it's that girl from June. Shuanzi has good taste. I've met that girl several times. She's very pretty and speaks in a refined manner. She's pretty good."
Mrs. Bao curled her lips and said, "That's the only thing about whether it's good or not. The son-in-law who comes to visit me can be nice or not."
Ms. Sun was a little surprised: "Son-in-law coming to visit? Then sister-in-law He is also willing?"
Mrs. Bao curled her lips again and said, "My own father didn't say anything. My sister-in-law is just Shuanzi's aunt, so how can she take care of so much? Besides, Shuanzi is quite happy with this, and he should tell his sister-in-law himself."
