Zhao Huanyu didn't expect Gao's reaction to be so big. He hurriedly took the hare from her hand, then reached out and patted her back to make her feel better.
After Gao Shi vomited for a while, Zhao Huanyu asked: "Grandma, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I just couldn't hold it back. Now I feel better when I spit it out."
Mrs. Gao patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
The grandfather and grandson went home together and found that Zhao Dafu had come back to cook. Only then did Zhao Huanyu realize that they had been delayed for a long time in going to Wang's house.
She went to help in the kitchen, and Zhao Dafu asked her to go out, saying that he could handle it all.
Zhao Huanyu did not fight with him, but carried a pot of vegetables to the yard to wash.
While eating, Zhao Dafu changed from his normal behavior and hesitated to speak.
Zhao Huanyu glanced at him and said, "Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"hey-hey."
Zhao Dafu laughed dryly, took something out of his pocket, took out a few taels of silver and put it on the table.
Then he explained: "This is the money I got from collecting herbs and processing them with your uncle and aunt during this period. Most of the money is spent at home, so you can use it."
Zhao Huanyu never thought that Zhao Dafu would give her money.
During this period, Dr. Zhao's legs and feet were almost in good condition, and he had been following his uncle's family to help collect herbs and prepare them. Zhao Huanyu supported it and thought that instead of sitting idle at home, it would be better to find something to do.
Looking at the few taels of silver in front of her, Zhao Huanyu was stunned for a moment, then pushed the silver toward Zhao Dafu and said, "You can spend the money yourself when you earn it. I have money."
"I know, I know." Zhao Dafu nodded repeatedly, "I know you are a capable child, and you are not short of money, but this is what dad wants. You are still a child, and you only need food at home.
You spent all the money, and I feel bad about it. I can make money by following your uncle and aunt, so I also want to do something for this family."
Recently, he was working with his second brother's family to get medicinal materials. Only then did he realize how profitable this business was. A few trips to the mountains could earn him more than what he had earned in a whole year by working hard for others.
Zhao Huanyu also patiently said to him: "Dad, I understand what you mean, but I will definitely go out to see people in the future, and I am often not at home. If I am not here, there will suddenly be money at home, and you don't have it."
What to do with the money? You should keep the money yourself and use it whenever you need it."
After hearing this, it seemed that this was true. Zhao Dafu suddenly hesitated. The money was originally meant for his daughter.
It was Mrs. Gao who said, "Just keep it if Xiaoyu tells you to."
My mother had already spoken, so naturally Dr. Zhao couldn't say anything more. He put the money away properly and thought about buying meat for his family next time.
Soon the day came for Zhao Huanyu to go to the county town. Zhao Huanyu simply packed two changes of clothes and went out.
Before leaving, Mrs. Gao confessed that this was Zhao Huanyu's first time traveling alone.
"I know, grandma, the carriage is already waiting at the entrance of the village, I'll leave first!"
Zhao Huanyu waved and trotted to the entrance of the village to take a carriage and leave.
This is not the first time that a carriage has come to the village. Even if everyone sees it, it is not as novel as it was at first. They just sigh once again that the Zhao family is prosperous.
Because he left early, it was in the afternoon when he arrived at the county seat. The driver took Zhao Huanyu directly to the door of a restaurant. As soon as he got off the bus, he saw Duan Kuo sticking his head out from upstairs and waving to him.
Zhao Huanyu smiled, but she didn't expect that Duan Kuo would come to pick her up in person.
Zhao Huanyu and shopkeeper Qi went upstairs together. Duan Kuo had already laid out a table of wine and food, and said casually: "Sit down and eat. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after we finish."
Zhao Huanyu patted his shoulder happily and said with emotion: "You are such a good boss, you know how to be considerate of your subordinates."
"That is!"
Duan Kuo raised his chin proudly. After losing weight for so long, his double chin was still so obvious. Zhao Huanyu frowned with dissatisfaction.
"Did you not follow my method to lose weight?"
Duan Kuo felt a little guilty for the time being. He had never really thought about losing weight. Although he had been losing weight with his father on the surface during this period, he was secretly eating.
"Well...I have lost weight, maybe it's just not obvious."
His eyes were a little erratic. After all, it was Duan Hong who was sick. He couldn't empathize with her, so naturally he had no determination to lose weight.
"You're lying!" Zhao Huanyu exposed it unceremoniously, "If you follow my method, the effect will be very obvious. You can hardly see any change, tsk tsk tsk..."
Zhao Huanyu didn't want to say anything more, but just kept eating her own food.
After traveling for such a long time, I was really hungry.
In front of Zhao Huanyu, Duan Kuo didn't dare to eat too much, so he tasted a little of each dish, and then deliberately found a topic: "What is your new recipe this month?"
"I gave it to shopkeeper Qi, you ask him for it."
Zhao Huanyu rolled her eyes, knowing that Duan Kuo must be greedy again. It would be strange for a greedy person like him to lose weight.
Duan Kuo thought she was confused, and he didn't know how to cook, so why did he need a recipe? Is that what he wanted?
But now he must be embarrassed to speak, so he hurriedly changed the subject: "I made it clear in my letter that the theme this time is cooking new dishes. It shouldn't be a problem for you, are you sure?"
"definitely!"
Zhao Huanyu made an OK gesture. Although she knew Duan Kuo couldn't understand it, she didn't mind.
In order not to be indifferent and to divert Zhao Huanyu's attention, Duan Kuo added: "The chefs from this restaurant will also participate in the competition. You can try some of each dish and feel the other person's bottom."
"Then I have to taste it."
Zhao Huanyu nodded repeatedly. If someone can open a restaurant, it means that the cook must be capable, and the taste is indeed good. Zhao Huanyu likes to eat it.
But what they were comparing was a new dish, and Zhao Huanyu was actually very sure of it. She said it would taste good, but in fact it was just like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, and he couldn't bear it after a while.
Duan Kuo looked like he hated iron and asked, "You are quite confident in yourself."
"That is required!"
Zhao Huanyu patted her chest and said very proudly: "I'm not good at these traditional delicacies, but if I'm comparing new ideas, they will definitely not be able to compare with me, so don't worry!"
Duan Kuo nodded and smiled, thinking that this competition was originally designed for her, and it must be based on her strengths.
After dinner, Shopkeeper Qi began to report his income to Duan Kuo. Listening to the calculations that Shopkeeper Qi made for him, Duan Kuo couldn't help but look at Zhao Huanyu frequently.
With such a high income, it would not be in vain for me to put all my efforts into organizing such a competition for her.
While we were talking about business, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the waiter from the restaurant came in. He smiled and said to Duan Kuo: "Master Duan, my shopkeeper said that since your cook is here, why not let her and Duan Kuo first?"
Our chefs have a competition, look at your side..."
