Chapter 137 Does Lao Tzu know the word shy?
“How do you speak!”
Qin Mian raised his foot and kicked him lightly, “You are not weak, you are powerful, are you better than my brother? My husband is fine, you will know if you see him later.”
When Nian Xi saw him mentioning his future husband, he was very happy, and then he realized that he had really put Jiang Yi down. He was too happy, but seeing him so happy and a little bit sour, “Is the third young master of the Shen family really so good?” He is so happy! Also, you haven’t got married yet, and you don’t know how to call your husband so daringly!”
“You brat, do you know Lao Tzu for the first time?”
Qin Mian glanced at him, “What is shame, does Lao Tzu recognize this word?”
Nian Xi: …really not.
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Qin Mian raised his eyebrows triumphantly, and then said: “Okay, don’t talk about me, I will introduce you two people.”
He set his sights on Zhao Chen and Li Wu and introduced them seriously.
When Nian Xi heard Qin Mian say that Zhao Chen’s cooking is delicious, his eyes lit up, and other questions were thrown away instantly, and he looked at Zhao Chen expectantly: “Brother Zhao, can I go to your place for dinner at night?”
Although he had just spoken for Jin Manlou, he was tired of eating Jin Manlou’s food for so many days. Now that he heard that Zhao Chen is good at cooking, he immediately wanted to taste it.
Anyone who knows Qin Mian knows that this person’s mouth is awkward, and the cakes made by the great royal chef in the palace can be picked out by him. It is also because those royal chefs don’t know, otherwise they have to jump off with anger.
But it is such a person who opened a restaurant in partnership with Zhao Chen because of Zhao Chen’s cooking skills. How good is Zhao Chen’s cooking skills?
The young son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Households said that he was going to eat at his own house. Can Zhao Chen refuse?
Of course not.
Zhao Chen doesn’t have any idea of being unafraid of power, as long as he can make what he wants to do smoothly and profitably, without harming others and himself, it doesn’t matter if he touches the bottom line, bends or stretches him.
How can everything go well in the world?
Whatever you want, you have to give something else.
Today, even if Nian Xi made him cook in this restaurant right away with a arrogant expression, he probably wouldn’t have any ideas, so he just did it, let alone the boy just asked politely.
Zhao Chen nodded without any hesitation, and smiled: “Of course, I don’t know what kind of dishes the young master would like to eat. The Caomin is so good for people to prepare it in advance.”
“Any dish is fine, he doesn’t choose.”
Before Nian Xi had spoken, Qin Mian spoke first, and then said to Zhao Chen, “Come on, let’s see the restaurant first, don’t delay, this restaurant will open as soon as possible and earn money as early as possible-you kid, Don’t mess with me here!”
The last sentence is for Nian Xi.
Nian Xi looked aggrieved, “Brother Qin, why do you despise me when I just came here!”
Qin Mian said, “Is this called disgusting you? This is called knowing you, so just talk about what you don’t eat? Braised pork, Kung Pao chicken, steamed sea bass?”
Nian swallowed his saliva, shook his head resignedly, and then said to Zhao Chen: “Well, it doesn’t take too much trouble, just make some small dishes.”
Zhao Chen understands that this is a senior foodie, and he is not picky.
As long as it tastes good, it can conquer his stomach.
This is a good service. Zhao Chen’s thoughts have changed. After all, he didn’t ask too much. He just smiled and said, “Caomin understands, the young master can rest assured, you will definitely be satisfied.”
“Good, good!” Nian Xi nodded in satisfaction.
Nian Xi was afraid that Qin Mian would be upset by delaying them, so he stopped talking and followed Qin Mian to see the restaurant.
The restaurant has three floors. The original design was to entertain ordinary guests in the lobby on the first floor, and private rooms on the second and third floors to entertain distinguished guests.
After the restaurant, there is a large courtyard with three entrances. It is where the back kitchen and warehouse are located, and it is also the residence of the restaurant’s shopkeeper, family members, and subordinates. It is now also bought by Qin Mian.
After reading it, Zhao Chen suggested that all the first and second floors be designed as private rooms, and the third floor is the private room. One yard in the backyard is selected for employees to live in, and the other yards are used to entertain guests.
If anyone has a secret to talk about but is afraid of being heard, he can arrange a yard to talk about it.
At this time, the building materials are destined to not have good sound insulation. The private rooms are only relatively safe, but the yard is different. Ask a trusted person to guard it outside. It is difficult for anyone who wants to eavesdrop.
Of course, those who are originally hiding in the house, or the heroes who have inner strength in the body are exceptions.
Qin Mian listened to his explanation of these arrangements, and found it feasible, so he nodded and let people write it down, so that when the time came, there would be no mistakes in the decoration.
After the design of the restaurant was finalized, the group went to the blacksmith shop.
When I got out of the blacksmith’s shop, it was already sunset and the sky was full of colorful clouds.
There are other things that haven’t been dealt with, but it’s not in a hurry, just take time to do it later.
Zhao Chen returned to the shop with a group of people and found that the two stone mills made by Zazao Shop had been delivered, and they were now in the shop’s backyard.
Li Xiaotang was too young, Zhao Chen did not arrange for her to set up a stall, let her do handicrafts and study at home, and Yang Xuan, Shu Mo, Niu Tao, and Ma Hao will take turns setting up stalls during the following days.
Today is Niu Tao and Ma Hao’s turn to set up a stall, and Yang Xuan and Shu Mo are at home.
When Zhao Chen brought people in, the two were cleaning the stone mill.
Seeing Zhao Chen and his party come in, they stopped to salute.
Zhao Chen introduced Nian Xi to them. After seeing them politely say hello, he asked, “When did the stone mill come in? Did the soybeans soak?”
Previously, he had agreed with Zazaopu that they would send the stone mill after they made it. He didn’t say a specific time, so Zhao Chen ordered the children at home to help them clean it if the stone mill was delivered, and soak it by the way. A bucket of soybeans.
Yang Xuan replied: “My son, the stone mill has just been sent, and the soybeans have been soaked, but they will not be available until tomorrow morning.”
Zhao Chen nodded and asked Yang Xuan and Shu Mo to entertain the guests, while he went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
It was a bit late, and there were many people who needed to eat. He didn’t make it too fine for dinner, but despite this, a group of people still ate very satisfied.
“Brother Qin really didn’t exaggerate!” Nian Xi burped and patted Zhao Chen on the shoulder. “The food you cook is really delicious! When your restaurant opens, I will move to you from Jinmanlou in the future. The restaurant is out!”
“The restaurant hasn’t started to renovate, so I guess it’s not so fast, but the renovation of this shop will end tomorrow, and the grassroots will also invite people to watch the day. The twenty-fifth of this month is a good day to open. If you don’t dislike it, you can often Come and sit down.” Zhao Chen smiled.
“Before it opens, can I come and have a meal?”
Nian Xi asked, thinking about it and adding, “I’ll pay the money!”
“Just know to eat!” Before Zhao Chen answered, Qin Mian knocked him.
“Life is alive, eating and drinking, there are delicious food, and I happen to have silver, why not eat it?” Nian Xi clutched his slightly painful forehead, muttering retort.
Qin Mian was speechless. The Nian family came out from a family of wealth lovers to eat food. They loved it so much. The whole government instilled Nian Xi with money and power. Otherwise, if the emperor accidentally took a breath, he would eat more. I copied it, so I didn’t have anything to eat.
When he was young, he was stunned when he heard the young man tell Nian Xi these ‘major principles’ with a serious and earnest expression.
Later, he learned that the young man was a rabbit and a fox. The court’s loyal ministers were killed one by one, but the traitorous officials and eunuchs were jumping for joy. Those people would point their fingers at whoever was not pleasing to the eye.
But the emperor was blind, and most of the people they targeted were dead, and they were also exiled to the frontier without dying.
Even young adults who meet with a three-pointed smile can be ginsenged in a few books.
If it wasn’t for the young master of the Nian family who was a guard with a sword in front of the imperial court, who desperately prevented the emperor from assassinating several times, it might have been a disaster for the family.
If this year the adults asked Nian Xi to leave the capital, is it really just to attend his wedding with Shen Wenqing? Or the idea of never letting Nian Xi go back again?
Qin Mian felt a little uneasy, and wanted to go to Shen Donghai to ask, so he didn’t stay in the shop more, and took Nian Xi, who had already discussed with Zhao Chen to come and eat every day, and leave.
Zhao Chen closed the door of the shop tightly and continued to teach the children to practice exercises.
The two stone mills in the yard had been cleaned, and Zhao Chen moved one of them to the door of Space Villa in the middle of the night while others were resting.
The next day before dawn, he got up and rubbed the soaked soybeans with a stone mill.
When Chen Jiu got up, he saw steamed buns, eggs, fried dough sticks, soy milk and tofu nao on the dining table on the first floor.
Zhao Chen was sitting at the table reading a book, and when he saw him downstairs, he put down the book, got up and pulled him over to sit down, and smiled: “Soy milk and bean curd are just made, put sugar in, you have a taste It doesn’t suit your taste. If you think it’s good, I’ll do it according to this taste in the future.”
Today Chen Guangren is going to send firewood to the county, and Chen Gui will continue to go to Master Lin to study. Chen Jiu didn’t bother to go out anymore and just washed in the space.
After hearing what Zhao Chen said, he picked up the soy milk in front of him and asked, “Are you going out today?”
“There is no need to go out today, so I won’t go out for the time being. In the morning, I will still teach Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhou to cook hot pot ingredients and barbecue. The afternoon is all arranged. I don’t need to come out. If the young master comes over in the evening, Just go out and cook a meal, the rest of the time will be in the space.”
Zhao Chen saw his eyes lit up suddenly, his heart softened, he leaned in and kissed him, and smiled: “Let’s hurry up and practice qigong and break through to the second level as soon as possible before we get married.”
When Chen Jiu thinks of the peculiarities of the practice, his face can’t help but feel a little hot.
But what Zhao Chen said was right. They really wanted to hurry up and practice qigong.
Chen Jiu sipped the warm soy milk. The soy milk has a strong fragrance and a sweet but not greasy taste. Zhao Chen always knows his taste well, and everything he makes suits his appetite.
In the afternoon, Zhao Chen entered the space as scheduled to practice exercises with Chen Jiu.
In the next few days, Zhao Chen didn’t leave the shop. He left everything to Chen Fu and Li Wu to the children he wanted to buy and order.
Chen Fu and Li Wu are accustomed to making decisions on their own, whether they buy things or do things, they never make mistakes.
The other children were a little embarrassed at first, and made several minor mistakes. After Zhao Chen pointed out that they were more careful and didn’t make any more mistakes.
Time flies, and soon the day when the shop opens.
