Chapter 374 I’m just greedy
Liu Nanshan is the kind of person who can’t sit still.
After being busy all my life, I suddenly have some free time, and everything feels awkward.
When he first settled in Taojia Village, he was busy with the house and vegetable garden. Later, he went to take care of Liu Wangxue's uncle who had a car accident. After he came back, he had so much free time that he was afraid that he would get sick from being idle.
When he followed Liu Wangxue to the old village committee to see the branch of Jingshan Technology, he asked about the chef. He really wanted to work there, not for the money, but just to find something to do.
Later, his family decided to build a two-story house. He was happy because he finally had something to do.
On the day Du Yunkai moved in with his employees, he, Tao Huayu's father and other villagers went to watch the fun. Then they found that Du Yunkai brought two chefs with him, so they gave up the idea.
However, sometimes when he invited Xu Qingsong to come over for dinner, they would unconsciously talk about the arrangements after the house was completed - there were no arrangements, so he was a little worried, and he felt uncomfortable all over when he was idle.
Xu Qingsong listened and kept it in mind, thinking that when Liu Wangxue came back, he would discuss with her and see how to make arrangements to enrich the elderly's daily life and keep Liu Nanshan "busy".
A few days later, the employees in the group started to complain about the food, especially Jin Zhaofei. This guy is from Northwest China. He said that his soul is branded with the imprint of Northwest noodles. If he doesn't have a bowl of noodles in three meals a day, his whole spirit will definitely be depressed.
Not only does Jin Zhaofei like to eat, he is also picky.
There was a chef in the canteen of the studio who was from the northwest, not far from Jin Zhaofei's hometown, and his cooking skills were really excellent. Jin Zhaofei went to the canteen every noon without fail, and first went to the chef's window to order a bowl of noodles, and then wandered around other windows.
Jin Zhaofei joked that one of the reasons why he was so devoted to Jingshan Technology was because of this master chef, because the taste of his hometown was really hard to find outside the gate of Jingshan Technology.
So, when Jin Zhaofei found out that the chef would not come with them to Taojia Village, he was heartbroken. He immediately ran to the cafeteria and ordered three bowls of noodles. The noodles were very generous, and the chef was afraid that he would get sick from overeating.
Not satisfied with the food, they felt like rebelling. Jin Zhaofei encouraged several others to write a joint letter, requesting Du Yunkai to hire a noodle chef from the northwest, or to settle for the next best thing, just some kind of noodles, such as oil-splashed noodles, belt noodles, biangbiang noodles... anyway, any kind of noodles, as long as it was delicious.
Du Yunkai actually asked someone to find a job, but most of the chefs were unwilling to come. The place was far away, in the village, and the salary was just the market average, which was not very attractive.
It’s only been a few days since they moved here, but these grown men are already listless at mealtime, especially Jin Zhaofei. Xu Qingsong is almost annoyed by him.
He asked, "You secretly came here and lived here for so long, didn't you eat rice and cook vegetables almost every day? Why didn't I see you looking desperate?"
"It's different," Jin Zhaofei said, "There was nothing to eat during that period, but I knew clearly that I would be able to eat it when I returned to Hai City. This time, I came here again, knowing clearly that I would not be able to eat it in a short time, no, in a long time. Boss, you don't understand, for people like us who have the love of our life, the more we can't eat it, the more we want it, the more we want it, the more we want it, the more uncomfortable we feel, and the more uncomfortable we feel, the ..."
"Okay, shut up." Xu Qingsong pinched his eyebrows, turned around and went to find Du Yunkai, asking him if he could ask Liu Nanshan to come over and help for a while, as an emergency.
Du Yunkai had no objection, but he felt he had to ask Liu Wangxue first.
So when Xu Qingsong went to Hai City to confess his love, he planned to discuss this matter with Liu Wangxue on the way back, but they were so caught up in their love that he forgot about it.
I just remembered it when I was eating scallion pancakes this morning. My whole family was there, so I mentioned it.
Liu Wangxue nudged Xu Qingsong with his elbow and said, "If you want to invite my dad to come out, the training fee can't be less."
Xu Qingsong nodded repeatedly: "Of course, of course, give uncle the highest treatment."
"Can you two respect the wishes of the parties involved?" Gu Xuelan smiled and said to Liu Wangxue, "Your father hasn't even said whether he wants to agree or not, and you're already talking about money. How can you be so kind?"
Liu Wangxue picked up the scallion pancake with chopsticks and brought it to her mouth. Hearing this, she said with a smile, "Of course we have to talk about it. We can't let my dad work for nothing."
Xu Qingsong picked up a fried dumpling for her and united with her: "That's right, facing a capitalist like Du Yunkai, we must not let him exploit us, we must do everything we can to gain benefits for ourselves."
Knowing that they were just joking, Liu Nanshan was still very happy after hearing this: "What's the money? Anyway, the house will be completed in ten days at most, and I will be free by then."
He agreed: "Qingsong, you ask the master first. If he is willing to learn from me, I will go over. Don't go if he is not willing. It will not look good if I go over again."
Xu Qingsong picked up a piece of tofu and ate it with the porridge, and said, "Uncle, I can't ask you this without asking you."
Xu Qingsong told them about the situation. After that, he drank the remaining porridge in the bowl and picked up a piece of scallion pancake: "The two chefs in the canteen are almost fed up with them. I heard that you can go, and I am so happy."
"That's great." Liu Nanshan picked up the dishes with heroism.
Gu Xuelan looked at him and smiled: "Are you relieved now? You don't have to worry about having nothing to do after the house is finished?"
Liu Nanshan smiled and said, "I'm not like you. I spend a lot of time on a cross stitch. I can't even hold the needle."
Gu Xuelan picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in the bowl: "Okay, use the big spoon, it's easier to hold it."
The four people at the table laughed together. Liu Nanshan lifted the lid of the casserole, holding a spoon in one hand and reaching out to Xu Qingsong with the other: "Give me a bowl, I'll give you some more."
Xu Qingsong protected the bowl: "No, no, thank you uncle, I'm full, I'm just greedy, I want to eat more cakes."
"Okay," Liu Nanshan stopped trying to persuade her. "There's plenty here. You can eat as much as you want."
Liu Wangxue handed the bowl over: "Dad, half a bowl."
Liu Nanshan scooped a spoonful for her, just enough for half a bowl.
Liu Wangxue took it and said, "Dad, you've found a place to make use of your remaining energy this time."
"Of course not," Liu Nanshan was happy when he thought about it, "I had discussed with your mother about doing something else, such as setting up a snack stand in the town, but your mother thought it was too tiring and didn't let me do it."
Gu Xuelan finished her meal and put down her chopsticks: "Am I tired? I'm just worried that you'll get tired. You've been busy for most of your life and finally have some free time. Instead of enjoying yourself, you insist on finding something tiring to do."
Liu Nanshan poured himself a bowl of porridge and said cheerfully: "I can't sit still——"
