Chapter 155 Invitation
Old Man Yan was rejected and thought he had given too little money. He continued, "For the three taels of silver, I'll only buy half of the crabs. What do you think? This is not a losing deal. It can only make money!"
Ji Zhisui looked at the pair of hands that were trying to secretly reach into the crab basin, tapped them with his chopsticks, and warned, "This isn't a matter of money. Eating too many crabs will cause coldness. As a doctor, don't you know that?"
Looking at Ji Zhisui's serious expression, Old Yan knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter. She was determined not to let him take on too many risks, but he also knew that the other party was doing this for his own good.
He could only sigh heavily, his face showing regret for not being able to eat the delicious food, and his mouth sounded pitiful.
"Ouch, ouch! My old bones, at my age, can't even afford a good meal."
Old man Yan's gentle and sad expression was really pitiful, as if he was someone who had not eaten anything good.
As soon as Song Yujin entered the kitchen, he saw the appearance of his master and couldn't help but admire him. The old man's acting skills were really superb and he could do what he said.
The master has traveled all over the world and has a lot of money. How could he not even have a good meal? He is just pretending to be pitiful when he says this.
He sniffed, smelling the fragrance that filled the yard, and couldn't help but sigh that what Little Mint had made was truly exquisite! It made sense for the master to do so.
Ji Zhisui couldn't bear to see Old Man Yan looking so pitiful and abused, so he finally sighed and said, "Okay, although we can't eat crabs, we still have shrimps here."
After hearing this, Old Man Yan became cheerful again, and even busied himself around the stove, full of energy, not looking miserable at all.
Song Yujin came to Ji Zhisui and invited him, "Little Bohe, are you free during the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days?"
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone visits relatives and friends, or climbs high places to plant dogwood branches, so the restaurant business will not be as busy as usual.
The moment he finished speaking, a cold and gloomy voice sounded, "She is not available."
Song Yujin looked at the person in front of him with hostility. Why was this guy haunting him and appearing everywhere?
If Ji Zhisui knew what he was thinking, he would just interject, after all, Pei Yian was the owner of the restaurant, where else would he be if not in the restaurant!
"Little Mint hasn't answered yet. Master Pei is a little too impatient."
"Our family is going to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together. What does it have to do with an outsider like you?"
Pei Yian exuded a chill all over his body. This guy was really an eyesore. He always pestered Sui Niang for no reason. He asked Sui Niang out during the Mid-Autumn Festival. He must have other intentions. He would not let this man succeed!
Looking at the two people who were about to come to blows, Ji Zhisui didn't understand why the two were so full of tension and wanted to fight each other as soon as they met.
It was obvious that he got along well with these two people. Although An Ge was quiet, he was gentle and patient. Song Yujin was talkative and rambling, but also reliable. However, when the two met, there was a lot of tension.
Ji Zhisui said apologetically, "Mr. Song, I'm really not free for the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you have anything to say, you can talk to me now."
After hearing this answer, Pei Yian raised the corner of his mouth in a playful arc and looked at Song Yujin provocatively.
Being rejected by the person involved, Song Yujin couldn't say anything more. He could only force a smile on his face, "Nothing, it's just that the food you cook, Xiao Mint, is so delicious that my master and I can't bear to leave."
Ji Zhisui looked at the crabs and shrimps in front of him and said, "Mr. Song, why don't you stay and have dinner with Old Man Yan today?"
Anyway, there will be a snack today, and there are a lot of ingredients. Plus, these two people have helped them. Also, she wants to ask Uncle Yan if the poison in An Ge's body can be saved.
The restaurant has been open for half a year and has been bringing in a lot of money every day. We used to make citrus-flavored ointments, which were very popular with the ladies, and we also have fat-reducing meals, etc...
These side jobs allowed her to accumulate a lot of savings, and together with the money she earned from the restaurant, she estimated that she had about a few hundred taels of silver.
It can't always be like this. With a few hundred taels of silver, she is thinking about whether to expand the store or open a store in Huizhou City.
Compared with Qizhou County, Huizhou City definitely has more people flow, cities and markets, and Huizhou City also has a port, so it can continue to buy and sell sausages.
The pan-fried crabs and stir-fried river shrimps made everyone enjoy the meal.
Old Man Yan touched his round belly, with an unconcealable satisfaction in his eyes. It was so nice to be able to eat the meals cooked by Miss Ji every day!
The appetite is fully satisfied, making people feel that life is full of expectations and hope.
"Uncle Yan, I have something to discuss with you. Can we go talk over there?"
Although he didn't know what Miss Ji wanted to talk to him about, after having such a delicious meal, even if she wanted to ask him for help, it didn't matter. Old Man Yan agreed without hesitation.
After arriving at a room, Ji Zhisui didn't say anything polite and went straight to the point, "Old man, is there really nothing you can do about An Ge's poison?"
She felt a little sorry for her spiritual spring water, as it seemed that it could not completely cure the poison, but could only alleviate the onset of the solidified virus.
After spending some time together, Old Man Yan got to know this family better, especially Miss Ji. She was a kind person and her cooking was delicious, so everyone praised her.
If Mr. Pei really gets hurt because of the poison in his body, she will probably be very sad!
He has been a little shaken these days. Pei Xinghai's condition made him find the other party's identity in the medical records. It turned out to be that person?
The Pei family was exiled here for being treasonous to the enemy, but it seems that there is more to this than meets the eye.
He had come into contact with the Pei family and had worked with General Pei on the battlefield for a period of time. He did not think that the other party would go back on his word and do such a thing. After all, he had once cared about life and death and would defend this territory even if it meant losing his own life. He valued this country more than anyone else.
He absolutely did not believe that the other party would collaborate with the enemy and sell out the country.
Mr. Pei is the son of General Pei. Do I really have to watch him die without helping him and live a life of idleness and idleness for the rest of my life?
"Uncle Yan, if you can cure An Ge's poison, I will definitely give you the first one to try when I develop a new dish. You don't have to spend any money."
Old man Yan didn't care about money or anything like that, but he was tempted by the condition above.
The thought of being able to eat the delicious ingredients made by Miss Ji first made him eager to try it. The already tilted balance tilted even more. Maybe he could give it a try.
At worst, he can travel around, and even if those people want to find his whereabouts, they can't do it. If that doesn't work, he can push all these matters to his apprentice. Anyway, once he has trained an apprentice, he, as a master, should let go.
