Chapter 158 Helper



A week has passed quickly and tomorrow is the Spring Flower Festival.

During this week, Mingyue has accumulated a lot of regular customers on both sides.

Not only that, she even had a new helper - Li Mingzhu.

Li Mingzhu heard from somewhere that Mingyue was driving a food truck, and came over to help for no apparent reason.

Mingyue was a little confused about what she was thinking, but since she was here, she might as well use the free help!

The main reason is that Li Mingzhu is very sensitive about her reputation. She can't hide her emotions at all. When she stands in front of Mingyue, she can see everything clearly. She is like a proud little cat on the roadside, standing obediently in front of you, saying, "Please reach out and touch my expression."

You should all know the rules of petting cats. If a kitten shows this expression, don't ask, just reach out and touch it. If you talk too much or just look at it, you will soon annoy the kitten, and it will immediately change its mind and run away, or kick the hand that is holding it a few times and "scold" you for being ignorant.

But is Li Mingzhu as self-consistent as the kitten? Maybe she will hide somewhere and cry after being rejected.

Look, Li Mingzhu's fingertips are repeatedly stroking the ribbon of the gift box, and the bow of the gift box is now rubbed to the point of having frayed edges.

She was standing next to the food cart, crushing a fallen leaf that had been blown from the park by the wind with the toe of her shoe. The crushed leaf veins seeped into the cracks in the asphalt road under the repeated pressure of the toe of her shoe.

"Here, a gift to congratulate you on your opening."

"I see you're running a food truck by yourself, so you must be short of people, right? I can help you, for free."

When Li Mingzhu was speaking, she didn't dare to look at Mingyue's brown-orange eyes.

Many times, pain begins with awakening, just like when you suddenly discover that you have another choice, but the roots of the past will emerge instead, grow wildly in your consciousness, and entangle you tightly, telling you that you cannot change.

At this time, people will probably be cut in two by their consciousness. The new consciousness shouts to move forward, but the old consciousness repeats that fate is repetitive and cannot be changed.

Li Mingzhu is like this. On the one hand, she wants to change, but on the other hand, she tells herself that she can't do it.

She continued to unconsciously crush the innocent fallen leaves with the tip of her shoes, and secretly glanced at Mingyue's expression out of the corner of her eye, then quickly turned her eyes away.

Finally, a light laugh broke Li Mingzhu's confusion.

"Okay, since it's free, why not take advantage of such a great deal?" Mingyue joked with a smile.

In an instant, a huge stone in Li Mingzhu's heart fell to the ground.

The reason why she chose to stay with Mingyue was very simple. She decided to change her lifestyle and make some new friends.

Among the people of her age she knew, Mingyue was the only one who didn't care about her background and the family behind her. This guy actually dared to order the eldest daughter of the Li family to work on the dining car. If this matter were to be spread, it would probably shock people.

There are some chains of contempt circulating among some people in this world, just like the guys who cook in high-end kitchens look down on food truck chefs, and high-end cuisine always looks down on ordinary cuisine for some inexplicable reason.

But the public doesn't buy it. For ordinary people, what matters most is something that is both cost-effective and delicious.

Having said that, with a background like Li Mingzhu's, she should have a separate central kitchen and a few assistants. Who would have thought that when she came to Mingyue, Li Mingzhu was only on the same level as the orange cat Bread and actually became Mingyue's assistant.

Outsiders all think that Li Mingzhu has suffered a great injustice, but Li Mingzhu herself does not think so. After she came to follow Mingyue, her pressure dropped sharply, and the only thing she needed to do every day was cooking.

After cooking, you can watch variety shows or chat with Mingyue and the two cats.

And the amazing thing is that the orange cat named Mianbao also wants to be a chef. When Li Mingzhu first learned about this, she was shocked. However, Mingyue and Mianbao's matter-of-fact attitude made her confused again, as if it was not difficult to make an animal a chef.

"But is this right? Letting a cat cook, is this right?" Although Li Mingzhu had heard that some animals were close enough to their owners to help them cook, it was a bit too abnormal for an animal to cook on its own.

When Mingyue heard this, she simply said, "But in this world, what is right? What is wrong?"

She held the orange cat high up, just like the action in the cartoon Lion King showing off the next Lion King, except for the voice-over of "Ah, wash the basin, Chihuahua".

“We bread can be whatever we want.”

She was answered by the cat's proud meow.

Xiaoman next to him also meowed in support.

The three of them were too serious, which made Li Mingzhu feel that she was the one who was wrong.

Because she joined a new team, and since everyone in the team thought this was normal, Li Mingzhu quickly accepted it. After all, group consciousness will gradually affect individual consciousness in the team.

Of course there is another reason, which is that it is so interesting to be with Mingyue.

She originally wanted to get close to Mingyue because she thought that she could hone her cooking skills by following a strong person, because from their previous encounters, Li Mingzhu's impression of Mingyue was that she was "strong" and "busy".

Mingyue seems to be always doing something, and he always likes to do it himself.

If other people see Ms. Li, they will squeeze out time no matter what, or shamelessly stick around and seize the opportunity to chat with her more.

But Mingyue was so good. After talking briefly with Mr. Li, she ran away. Li Mingzhu turned around to call her for dinner but couldn't find her. When she asked around, she found out that she had already slipped away.

I heard she even turned down an offer from culinary school and ended up driving a food truck.

If Li Mingzhu had never met Mingyue, just by hearing these stories, she would probably label the other person as mentally ill.

But it was not until she spent time with Mingyue that Li Mingzhu realized that Mingyue was busy with such interesting things.

The first is to open a food truck.

At the beginning, Li Mingzhu actually had the prejudice of a superior perspective, thinking that food trucks were the kind of dirty food stalls. As a result, Mingyue sent her to the number one food truck in the food truck lane to buy spice fried rice and butter chicken. She was stunned after eating them.

"Why? With this kind of skill, shouldn't you open a restaurant and develop it into a chain? Why do you have to work so hard to make money by setting up a food truck here?"

She was amazed at how a small food cart could control spices so well, with the layers of seasoning being even better than those of many chefs in high-end restaurants.

And this is on a busy food truck! How do those people ensure the quality of the food? You have to know that a high-end restaurant kitchen must have at least dozens of chefs. You should also know that many of these high-end restaurants are reservation-based, which means they know the number of dishes in advance and prepare them in advance.

But Li Mingzhu remembered that when she was queuing up to buy, she saw that there were only three employees and one employee in the food cart who maintained order in the queue and helped customers take orders. How could these four people maintain the quality control of snacks while serving so many customers?
