Ji Qingzhi's family has an ancestral restaurant, but she yearns for the entertainment industry.
In her words, she is so beautiful, of course she can't waste this face. However, after ...
Chapter 47 Beer Duck Invitation
Although there was a cheat with the well water, Ji Qingzhi was very proud of the vegetables she grew, so after seeing the netizens' suggestion, she quickly told Xu Yu'an about this idea, asking him to keep more footage of the backyard when editing the video next time.
Xu Yu'an nodded in response. After replying to the message, he heard the familiar melody in his ears. He couldn't help but glance at Gu Jingsi next to him: "Brother, how is it, my editing is not bad, right?"
“Well, it’s okay.” Although he said this, Gu Jingsi’s hand continued to click on the next video. For the first time, he felt that food videos could also be healing.
"If you dislike it, then just stop reading it." Xu Yu'an said as he took his phone away. He lowered his head and saw that his phone page was stuck on the comment page. Almost all the comments on this page were praising Ji Qingzhi. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Are you also infatuated with Sister Ji?"
"Also?" Gu Jingsi raised his eyes to look at him.
"Yes, there is no one around me who doesn't like her, so you better be careful not to be attacked by her fans." Xu Yu'an reminded warmly.
"It's because I told the truth. Besides, calling her a vase is also a compliment to her looks, isn't it?" Gu Jingsi was very annoyed by Yan Si and the company behind her at the time, so when a reporter asked questions, he took the opportunity to explain why Ji Qingzhi was not suitable, so that those people would calm down a little. Now it seems that he seemed to have been too direct at the time?
What he said seemed to make sense. Xu Yu'an didn't know how to refute it for a moment, but thinking of what he was hiding, he immediately stood up and said, "I'll ask Shan to send the meat sauce to you on Sunday. If you need something from me next time, just let me come over. You don't have to come to school to find me."
"How much?" Gu Jingsi raised his eyebrows. He knew that since he didn't refuse at that time, it meant there was a chance.
"Twenty-five bottles, this is the maximum, and there won't be a next time." Xu Yu'an said with a sigh.
"Can't there be a little more?" Gu Jingsi glanced at the chat history in the group. Everyone was very interested in meat sauce. It can be seen that they are operating it well.
"Brother, do you know what twenty-five bottles means? You think it's too little?" Xu Yu'an's tone was full of helplessness. Does he know what limited edition means?
"Okay, you can have someone deliver it when the time comes." Gu Jingsi thought, "After we finish eating, let others make reservations."
"Well, I'll go back to school first." Xu Yu'an waved at him and left the cafe.
After he left, Gu Jingsi was also quickly called away by a phone call. After hanging up the phone, he finished watching the video he had not finished watching before getting up and leaving. When he turned off his phone, he couldn't help but think in his mind, if he went to Ji's restaurant again, would he be kicked out by Ji Qingzhi? Soon, he was amused by his own idea, but maybe he needed to apologize first?

After listening to the opinions of netizens, Ji Qingzhi spent more time photographing the backyard, which in disguised form added "work" for Old Ji. Since he knew that the backyard would also be included in the border, he has been busy every day, either taking care of the chicken coop or clearing the weeds beside the fish pond. With something to do, he became more energetic, and Ji Qingzhi did not stop him from doing these chores. The camera would occasionally capture his busy back. Ji Qingzhi looked at Old Ji in the camera and felt that such a life was not bad.
When Jiang Yan and the others arrived, Old Ji was changing the nest for the chickens and ducks. If chickens and ducks could take a bath, Ji Qingzhi would have suspected that he was going to give them a bath. When they heard Ji Qingzhi's words, the chickens and ducks next to Old Ji started to chirp, as if to say that they were finally liberated and that Old Ji wouldn't have to bother them today. Even from a distance, Ji Qingzhi could feel their joy.
"You're here so soon. Let me change my clothes." Ji Yuanfu actually attached great importance to this meeting with Jiang Yan, so he naturally paid attention to his appearance.
"No hurry, take your time." Ji Qingzhi said and went to the front hall. Looking at the things the three of them brought, he couldn't help but feel a headache: "Actually, you don't need to bring these."
"This is what we give to Uncle Ji, not to you," Yun Xiangrong retorted.
"Yes, these are all for uncle's health. Teacher Ji, you can't refuse." Huo Yubai also nodded seriously.
Although Jiang Yan didn't say anything, his eyes conveyed the same meaning. Ji Qingzhi held his forehead and said, "I know you mean well, but you don't have to bring so much, right?"
"It's just one month's amount, not much." Yun Xiangrong waved his hand.
"Okay." Ji Qingzhi's tone was helpless. Mainly because she had the well water, she really didn't need these things. However, meeting their eyes, she could only accept them and treat them as a snack for Old Ji.
After Old Ji came out, Jiang Yan stepped forward to introduce himself and extended his hand to him at the end. The two of them seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.
Yun Xiangrong was still thinking about the flower wall in the backyard, so she went to the backyard with Huo Yubai and Ji Qingzhi. The vines of the roses had already climbed up, so it would probably take some time for them to bloom.
"When the flowers bloom, I will definitely come here to check in." Yun Xiangrong said, pointing at the flower wall.
"You're welcome anytime." Ji Qingzhi nodded with a smile.
"Sister Ji, can you fish here?" Huo Yubai's tone was full of surprise.
"My dad is killing time." You don't have to guess to know that Lao Ji's fishing gear was forgotten here.
"I'll go take a look." Huo Yubai looked eager.
"Go, go," Yun Xiangrong waved her hand, telling him to hurry up. After he left, she looked at Ji Qingzhi and said, "Director Jiang's new play has a new role. Are you interested?"
Ji Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, I think acting is something that still requires talent. I'm probably not suitable for this job."
"Uncle Ji's condition has improved. What are your plans for the future?" Yun Xiangrong had expected her refusal.
"Let's run the restaurant with him first. I'm quite satisfied with this kind of life for now." Ji Qingzhi really hasn't thought about future plans yet.
"Okay, feel free to come to me if you need anything." Yun Xiangrong's eyes swept across Ji Qingzhi's cheek as he spoke. Her current condition was indeed the best in recent years, and her choice was probably the right one.
The lunch menu was prepared by the two of them last night. Ji Qingzhi didn't expect that Old Ji would cook by himself. Thinking of how he had been busy in the yard recently and increased his exercise, it turned out to be for this. She curled the corners of her lips and gave up her seat: "Okay, I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time."
This was not the first time that Ji Qingzhi watched Ji Yuanfu cook, but it was the most attentive time. After three dishes, Ji Yuanfu was a little exhausted. He did not force himself, but turned back to signal Ji Qingzhi to take his place. When Ji Qingzhi took the pot from him, he did not forget to glance at the score board on the light screen. He realized that there were only 20,000 points away from 100,000. After tonight's late-night poison series came out, tomorrow's points should reach 100,000, and he could exchange them for Qingming Pills again.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. Ji Yuanfu and Jiang Yan got along surprisingly well and even exchanged contact information. After they left, Ji Qingzhi joked, "Great, Old Ji. Now we even have Director Jiang's personal contact information. If we tell others about this, I wonder how many people will be envious."
"Are you envious?" Ji Yuanfu asked softly.
"I'm not envious, because I have it too." Ji Qingzhi raised his eyebrows.
"Let's divide the work of cooking the dishes together from now on." Ji Yuanfu knew how tiring it was to work in the kitchen, and he wanted to help her share the burden.
"Okay, but we have to agree on three rules." Ji Qingzhi said as he stretched out three fingers.
"I know. I will do what I can and won't try to be stubborn." Ji Yuanfu knew what her three rules were without her saying anything.
"You said it yourself." Ji Qingzhi smiled. The breeze caressing her cheeks made her feel that the world had become lovely.
The next day, just as Ji Qingzhi had guessed, she earned a total of 26,000 points. She quickly exchanged them for Qingming Pills, dissolved them in water, and added them to Old Ji's breakfast.
With Old Ji's help in sharing the burden, Ji Qingzhi feels more and more relaxed every day. She spends almost all of her free time taking care of the backyard. Netizens also witness the changes in the backyard based on the backyard clips in their videos.
Old Ji returned to normal after taking Qingming Pills three more times. At this time, buds appeared on the rose wall in the backyard, and the chickens and ducks changed from their original baby forms to edible food.
So in the new video, the ingredients for the beer duck come from the backyard. The ingredients in these videos basically all come from the backyard. For a while, the popularity came again, and it became increasingly difficult to get reservations at the restaurant. Even Xu Yu'an couldn't help asking Ji Qingzhi if he wanted to open a branch.
"No need, just wait until the heat is over." Ji Qingzhi shook his head. It would be great if he could run this business well and pass it on.
She originally thought that everyone’s curiosity was only because the ingredients came from the backyard, so she didn’t edit more footage of the backyard. Unexpectedly, two months later, the number of reservations remained the same, so she threw this question to Lao Ji.
"Let's stick with the current number. We won't be able to handle more people." Old Ji glanced at her while speaking. What he didn't say was that he had a new idea of finding an apprentice. No matter what, the Ji family's recipes had to be passed down. If Qingzhi was willing, it would just be an extra helper. If she wasn't willing, someone could take over her and she could do what she liked.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Ji Qingzhi grinned. She actually thought so too. Therefore, the reservation for Ji's Restaurant remained the same as before, so the reservation spot became more and more precious.
On this day, Ji Qingzhi was filming the live feed of the flower wall for Yun Xiangrong in the backyard. Li Yuanyuan came in with a guest. She thought they were here to borrow the backyard for filming again. Before she could say no, the guest said, "Hello, Miss Ji. We are from the Gourmet Food Program Team. We would like to invite you to the program."
