Chapter 18: The Wandering Uncle
Upon hearing this, Ye Shuyi shook her head and said, "It's getting late. If Young Master Chen has nothing else to do, could you please arrange for someone to take me back?"
She was a little worried about what was happening at Ye's and wondered if they could handle it well.
"Okay, I'll ask Butler Xue to take you there. He will also help me get food in the afternoon." The young master was helpless.
"Uh-huh!"
"You should leave after you finish your meal. It's getting late." Chen Nanfeng was afraid that she was hungry.
"Oh, then I'll go eat with the aunts." Ye Shuyi turned and left.
"Turn over here." Chen Nanfeng said, "Sit down and eat with me."
Anyway, there is a lot of food, enough for two people.
"Is this appropriate?" He is the young master and I am just a chef.
There is no reason for the young master and the chef to eat at the same table.
"Nothing inappropriate."
So, Chen Nanfeng asked Aunt Li to serve another bowl of rice.
The food on the table smelled delicious, but Ye Shuyi's eating manners smelled even better.
But Ye Shuyi didn't think so. She felt that the gaze from the other side was too hot.
She was on pins and needles.
After quickly finishing her meal, Ye Shuyi got on the return bus.
The wiring of Ye Ji Cuisine has been reconnected.
There are just some broken and damaged items that need to be replaced, and I have to buy new ingredients tomorrow morning.
At this point, many things in the market have been picked out.
Not fresh.
The next day, it reopened.
There are fewer people than yesterday.
After the store encountered this kind of thing, many people are now reluctant to come.
Of course, there are also many people who don’t care about these things and come just for the hand-shredded chicken.
Sales are okay.
"Alas, the store business is not as good as I imagined." Ye Junhui sighed.
I thought I could take off, but I didn’t expect to be so unlucky!
"Dad, don't be so pessimistic. You have to believe that good wine needs no bush. Our food is delicious and will definitely become more and more popular!" Ye Shuyi comforted.
Beep beep beep——
Phone call.
"Ms. Ye, the perpetrator has been found. He stole from a nearby restaurant out of jealousy and is requesting mediation. Do you want to see him?"
"Meet me. Is tomorrow okay? Three o'clock in the afternoon." Ye Shuyi said.
"Can."
She wanted to see who was so damp!
The reason she wanted to meet him was not because she wanted to mediate, but to beat him!
However, with the police watching, it shouldn't be easy to catch him.
Well, a scolding would be good too.
Ye Shuyi put aside these unpleasant things and concentrated on making her hand-shredded chicken.
"Ruoxin, come here and watch me do it and see if you can learn it." Ye Shuyi called out.
"Ah! Me?" she couldn't believe it.
"Yes, it's you. Come on, take a good look at every detail and try it out later."
"Okay." He agreed crisply.
"Hey, prepare the seasoning first, then you can pour it on..."
"Be careful with your technique. Don't throw away these internal organs."
"If you twist the lemon like this, you can squeeze out the juice perfectly..."
Ye Shuyi taught step by step, and Shi Ruoxin learned step by step.
"It's not difficult, but there are a lot of details to pay attention to." Shi Ruoxin said.
I don’t know if I have learned it.
She operated carefully and there were no problems at the beginning, but when it came to the critical part, she became a little unsure.
Ye Shuyi reminded her from the side.
"This way... and this way... understand?"
"good."
When guests come, Ye Shuyi cooks for them first.
She could do two things at once, mainly because she was very familiar with these dishes, so she could cook for the guests and remind Shi Ruoxin at the same time without affecting her speed.
Why choose Shi Ruoxin?
Because this little girl looks very well-behaved and able to endure hardships.
Teaching her to cook is to see if she has talent, and secondly to see if the other employees will be dissatisfied.
She didn't say how many people would be hired after the assessment.
In fact, several people will do, but they must be screened and have good intentions.
If it is malicious competition, she will definitely fire him even if she hires him.
"Sister Shuyi, I'm done. Can you take a look?" Shi Ruoxin said nervously.
She didn't know if she could do it well. If she didn't, would Sister Shuyi be disappointed in her and leave her?
"Let me try." Ye Shuyi took a bite. "The process should be good, but the taste is not well grasped. It's a bit too salty. Maybe there are too many ingredients? Also, the chicken is overcooked and not tender enough. I'll pay more attention to it next time."
Overall, he's quite talented.
It’s my first time making this, and it’s already amazing.
"Okay, I understand." Shi Ruoxin said, "Sister Shuyi, thank you very much!"
"You're welcome!"
While I was talking, someone came into the kitchen.
It’s Xie Yanfei.
He glanced at the freshly cooked dish on the plate, curled his lips and said, "Sister Shuyi is teaching Ah Xin how to cook?"
"Yes! The dishes the customer just ordered are ready. Please serve them out." Ye Shuyi's tone was the same as usual.
"Oh, okay. There's one more thing. Just now, there was an old beggar outside the door asking for food. I wanted to chase him away, but I felt sorry for him, so I wanted to ask Sister Shuyi what to do."
"Oh?" Ye Shuyi became interested. "Take me to see it."
Hong Kong Island is luxurious, with all kinds of luxury cars and beautiful women, and its economy is at the forefront of the world.
But Hong Kong Island is also poor. There are many homeless people on the streets, begging for food without any support.
They may be too old to work, or have incomplete limbs, or have mental problems.
In short, this city is small, but it is full of stark contrasts, with a huge gap between the rich and the poor. The rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer and poorer.
Ye Shuyi would sympathize with them.
"Look, that's him, standing at the door!" Xie Yanfei pointed. "If we chase him away, he'll look pitiful. But if we don't chase him away, it'll affect the business."
There was indeed a hunchbacked old man at the door, dressed in shabby clothes and wearing army-green Liberation cloth shoes with torn toes, and he had a mat on his back, ready to spread out and sleep.
There was a small local dog following beside it, sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail like a windmill.
The old man didn't come in, and the dog lay on the doorstep, looking into the store and at the old man from time to time.
A well-behaved puppy.
"Uncle, why are you standing here?" Ye Shuyi stepped forward. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Can you give me a glass of water?" the old man asked embarrassedly.
"Sure! Uncle, you must be hungry. Come in and sit down!" Ye Shuyi greeted him.
"A Fei, go pour a cup of boiling water for Uncle, and steam some spareribs, and get a bowl of honey, watermelon, and tortoise jelly."
Boiling water, in Cantonese, means boiled water, not the current hot water at 100 degrees Celsius.
"Oh, okay." Although he didn't understand, he did it.
"Uncle, is this the puppy you raised? You look so proud!" Ye Shuyi touched its head.
The cute little tail wagged even more happily.
But he would not take the initiative to lean on Ye Shuyi's trouser legs.
"A Rong, pour a glass of water for the paparazzi." With his tongue stretched out so long, he must be hot and thirsty.
"Thank you very much, boss." The old man said with emotion.
