"Ah?" You Bin was stunned by Dong Xunchang's question. He had not really thought about this question for the time being.
He stayed in Tianjin for a few months and saved some money. Although it was not much, he had no expenses at the moment.
The capital was too prosperous for him, and it always made him feel a little scared and resistant.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Dong Xunchang continued, "Hey, nephew, don't blame me.
"You are not that old now, it is not a good idea for you to stay at home all the time.
"It's better to find something to do outside. It won't be tiring and I can still make some money."
You Bin was somewhat tempted by what he said. Now he relied on Mr. Cen for food and drink while living at home, and he didn't have much money on his hands.
Although it was not difficult for Mr. Cen to support him, this was not a long-term solution.
Although Mrs. Ye has made a lot of money now, as the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.
If I want to rely on my daughter for my retirement in the future, I will definitely need to have some money in my hand before I can ask for it.
"But in my current condition, what can I do if I go out to work?" You Bin was a little distressed.
He is in poor health and cannot carry anything with his shoulders or hands, so the only skill he has is cooking.
But if he were asked to work under someone else, he would be quite scared.
Dong Xunchang immediately said, "Come to my restaurant and cook!
"Your craftsmanship is impeccable, and I've also heard from Lao Cen about your poor health.
“You are here with me, you can cook whatever you want and rest when you are tired.
"If you have any problems, just come to me directly. No one from above will tell you what to do. How about that?"
I have to say, when these conditions were put forward, You Bin was really tempted.
Seeing that he was still hesitant, Dong Xunchang pushed him again and said, "I've been friends with your father for so many years, and I've watched you grow up. What do you have to worry about?"
You Bin thought that was right. It seemed that there was nothing wrong in coming over and giving it a try. If he really couldn't adapt, he could talk about it later. They were all people he knew, so there was nothing wrong with asking.
Just when he was about to nod in agreement, Mr. Cen suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Old Dong, you are doing bad things to me again."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Dong Xunchang glared, "I think you, old man, are drunk."
You Bin also quickly helped explain: "Dad, Uncle Dong told me something and wanted me to come work for him."
"You still say you're not doing anything bad!" Old Cen glared, "Why would my son cook at your restaurant?"
"It's your fault that you don't have a restaurant at home!" Dong Xunchang said with a smile.
"It seems you already own a restaurant!" Cen Lao said angrily, "It's just a restaurant, no big deal. If my son wants to do this, I'll open one right away!"
"Oh, you said that yourself, so I'll be waiting for it!"
The two old men, who were over a hundred years old in total, started arguing again as they talked.
You Bin had never seen them in such a state before, and he felt a little at a loss as he stood by.
Fortunately, there are many people in the hall today, and many of them are old friends of the two.
Soon someone came and took the two of them away to drink.
"Today is a happy day, why are you two talking so much? Go drink some wine, we won't leave until we are drunk."
"That's right, we brothers haven't gathered together like this for several years."
"When we were apprentices together, you two were always bickering. How come you're still like children now, even though you're so old?"
"Otherwise why call me an old kid!"
Dong Xunchang said, "Tsk, you talk as if you are still young."
"That's right, although you are fellow apprentices, you are all half-buried in the earth.
"At this age, what difference does a few years make?"
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this.
Someone pointed at them and said, "What did I just say? Senior Brother Cen and Senior Brother Dong are like this.
"When they're alone, they bicker, but as soon as there's someone else around, they immediately unite."
As the old men talked, they started talking about their apprenticeship days, feeling full of emotion, and soon started drinking again.
You Bin couldn't stand crowded places, especially when no one he knew was around. Seeing that someone was about to come and talk to him, he quickly ran upstairs and found a quiet place to stay by himself.
At this time, the guests upstairs had almost finished their meal and began to leave one after another.
After seeing off several groups of guests, Mrs. Ye finally found time to check on Mr. Cen.
When I came over, I saw that several old men at the table were all drunk, and they were arguing with each other, their faces red and ears loud, about who the master was most partial to.
Mrs. Ye hurried out to call in the attendants or coachmen who came with the old men. She felt relieved only after watching them lead people away one by one.
Soon, only Mr. Cen and Chef Dong were left at the table.
As soon as the others left, they started arguing again.
Mrs. Ye quickly called over Chef Dong’s apprentices and asked them to help the man away.
She originally wanted to look for Shi Lei and Meng Yu from Mr. Cen's side, but she couldn't find anyone after looking around. After asking around, she found out that they had both gone to see off a drunk guest.
Mrs. Ye had no choice but to ask her waiter to go upstairs and call down Mr. Ye, asking him to look after Mr. Cen while she had to go and see off other guests.
Mrs. Ye was so busy that she couldn't help but complain to Boss Ye in a low voice: "My dad is really something, I don't know where he has gone.
"It's fine that you can't help see the guests off, but you don't even bother to keep an eye on the old man."
Boss Ye immediately advised: "It's already very difficult for my father-in-law to live a normal life now, what else do you expect from him?
