Chapter 219: Rushing to Eat, It Tastes Even Better
"Eat quickly, egg custard mixed with rice is delicious." Chu Yue used a spoon to divide the egg custard into Pei Tianci's small bowl.
She has already tasted the egg custard. It must be made by steaming several eggs mixed with hot water. The egg custard is soft and elastic, different from ordinary water egg custard. It avoids children's taste and does not contain chopped green onions. Instead, it adds a few drops of sesame oil, which is particularly fragrant.
"Master Pei, if you don't eat it now, we will eat it all."
Ye Zhaodi also helped to pick up the dishes, picked out another piece of the most beautiful braised pork belly and handed it to Pei Tianci. She didn't dare to eat too much herself, but just tasted the remaining flavor on the chopsticks. She was very happy to taste the pork fat.
Lu Yuanbao also helped to pick up the dishes, "Tianci, why don't you eat? Tell me what you like and I'll help you."
Pei Tianci looked at the three people around him. They were all eating noisily, stuffing rice into their mouths in big mouthfuls. So fast... so fragrant...
Chu Yue has this bad habit developed from her job. She works overtime every day and has very little time to eat, so she has to race against time.
Lu Yuanbao and Ye Zhaodi had this habit from their childhood: it was not easy for poor families to get food, so they had to act quickly and stuff it into their mouths, otherwise the food might be snatched away by others.
When it comes to eating, you have to be quick, decisive and accurate, otherwise there is something wrong with your thinking.
Pei Tianci had never seen such a scene before. In the blink of an eye, one third of the rice in the bowls of the people around him was gone, but he hadn't eaten a single bite.
Lu Yuanbao quickly reminded him, "Tianci, eat quickly, or the food will be gone."
Such a sumptuous meal is enough for even six people. It is impossible that there is not enough. But everyone is in such a hurry that they seem to want to grab and eat all the food.
eat!
Eat quickly!
Otherwise it will be gone!
Pei Tianci held the bowl of rice, opened his mouth wide and ate in big mouthfuls.
Then I discovered...it smells so good!
The egg custard is very fragrant, the braised pork belly is very fragrant, and even the annoying green vegetables become very fragrant.
It seems to taste even better with everyone rushing to eat it.
They finished their meal in no time, and Pei Tianci couldn't catch up with their speed no matter how hard he tried.
Chu Yue reminded, "Yuanbao, you should accompany Tianci to eat. This is her second bowl. Don't give her more after she finishes this one. It's not good for her stomach to eat too much."
"Okay, I'll watch him."
Lu Yuanbao sat next to Pei Tianci and watched him eat.
Pei Tianci ate slower and slower. Firstly, there was no atmosphere for eating, and secondly, he was full. Chu Yue still overestimated him. Pei Tianci, who couldn't finish a bowl of white rice in the past, could now eat one and a half bowls, which was already a lot.
After he slowed down, he stopped moving his chopsticks and just bit the rice in his mouth, chewing it back and forth. As he ate, he began to blush and felt embarrassed to look at Lu Yuanbao.
Lu Yuanbao frowned. Why was he blushing while eating?
He asked quietly, "What dishes do you want to eat? I'll help you pick them up."
Pei Tianci lowered his head, hesitating for a long time, and whispered, "...I can't eat anymore..."
If you can't eat, just put down your bowl, but everyone's bowl was empty except for him, who only had half a bowl left.
Pei Tianci is an emotionally sensitive child and knows that this is wrong.
"So you can't eat anymore," Lu Yuanbao suddenly realized. To him, this was just a small problem. "Give me the bowl."
Lu Yuanbao took Pei Tianci's bowl, poured some of the broth from the braised pork belly, mixed it with the remaining rice, and ate it all in a few bites, leaving not a drop of rice on the wall of the bowl.
He said seriously, "Rice is very precious. I couldn't even eat it when I wanted to before, so we must not waste food. Tianci, from now on, just serve as much as you want to eat, so there won't be any waste."
Pei Tianci watched Lu Yuanbao finish his leftovers with his eyes wide open. After a long time, he said softly, "...I remember, I won't do it again."
at the same time.
Ye Zhaodi was still worried about the hooligans causing trouble this morning, so she whispered to Chu Yue, "Sister Yue, do you think it could be Liu Jinfeng? Of all the shop owners on this street, she's the most cunning and has always been against us."
When talking about Liu Jinfeng, Ye Zhaodi was still angry even though she had slapped her in the face.
Chu Yue shook her head, "I don't think so."
"Why?" Ye Zhaodi didn't understand and was not convinced. "I think it's her. She can't stand our business doing well."
Chu Yue analyzed, "Zhao Di, think about it. How much would it cost to hire those three hooligans and have someone else to help stir things up? Maybe even twenty or thirty yuan wouldn't be enough. Liu Jinfeng is so stingy that she wouldn't even spend five cents. Would she be willing to spend that kind of money?"
"...Really." Ye Zhaodi thought carefully about what Chu Yue said and nodded in agreement. "If it's not Liu Jinfeng, who else could it be? Is there anyone who doesn't want us to keep the store open?"
There is indeed an invisible big hand hiding behind the scenes. The information revealed now is too little, and even Chu Yue cannot analyze it.
"Zhao Di, as long as we do business honestly and treat our customers with sincerity, we don't have to worry about anyone using shady tactics." Chu Yue held down Ye Zhao Di's hand as she tried to help with the work. "I told you to take a break today. Go back to the warehouse, change the water in the hot water bottle, and use it to cover your stomach."
"Sister Yue, my stomach doesn't hurt anymore, I can--"
"No, go back quickly."
Chu Yue was firm in her attitude. Dysmenorrhea was not just a simple pain. It was still the first day for Ye Zhaodi, and she would feel uncomfortable in the next few days.
Ye Zhaodi reluctantly went back to rest, but she was not idle either. Pei Tianci brought some storybooks and toys. Ye Zhaodi had attended elementary school and knew more words than the other two children, so she could still read a storybook.
After a while, Chu Yue heard the clear sound of storytelling in the warehouse and shook her head helplessly.
"Big sister, have you eaten yet?"
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Liu Jinfeng's voice was enthusiastic and flattering, and she walked into the grocery store with her bloated butt shaking.
When she saw Chu Yue, she acted as if nothing had happened, acting like a caring aunt. "Sister, I saw a commotion in your store this morning. Those guys looked like hooligans. Are you okay? You said your husband wasn't home, and there were only two girls in the store. What if something happened? It scared me so much I almost had a heart attack."
Chu Yue was sarcastic in her heart. When there was a commotion in the store this morning, Liu Jinfeng probably hoped that something would happen to her, or even better, the store would be closed so that no one would compete with her for business.
My heart was filled with joy, and my words were sincere and heartfelt.
Liu Jinfeng is truly a master of this skill.
Chu Yue didn't give in at all and asked directly, "Aunt Liu, you know so much about it. You're squatting outside watching the excitement. Is it exciting?"
