From the moment Xiaoguo entered the door, she kept exclaiming, "They are awesome!"

I didn’t expect that Xiaoguo only drew a rough shape on paper, but Ruyi and Qin Anming were able to copy it completely!

“You guys are awesome!!”

Xiaoguo turned around and excitedly held Ruyi's hand, with excitement in his eyes.

"Hey, that's all done by Brother An Ming. I was just helping out."

Ruyi said this humbly, not forgetting to pull Qin Anming along to share the credit together.

After Xiaoguo left, the two of them did not rest. They took the drawings and went to order furniture, including cabinets, wooden basins, tables and chairs. Then they prepared the ingredients. In order to make the food richer, the two of them added a lot of vegetables and meat to Xiaoguo's list.

Before the two of them prepared the ingredients, they went to buy another maid. This time the maid was a little older and she had found out all the details.

The girl's name is Xiao Cui, she is 17 this year. There are many girls in her family, but only one precious son. For the sake of their son, Xiao Cui's parents sold her, the oldest one.

Ruyi bought the guy because he looked good. She has observed him doing quite well in the past two days.

Ruyi and Xiaoguo were talking about what had happened in the past few days. It was Uncle Xu at the counter who reminded them that they were on time and went out with firecrackers in hand.

Xiaoguo took Zhuangzhuang from Qin Anming's arms and carried him to the door. Qin Anming pulled the red cloth on the plaque, while Ruyi held firecrackers hanging on a long stick.

Xiaoguo covered his thick ears, fearing that the sound of firecrackers would scare him.

The strong hand covered Xiaoguo's hand, and his two big eyes looked at the firecrackers excitedly.

Ruyi and Qin Anming looked at each other and silently counted to three, two, one. When the time was up, they moved at the same time. Ruyi lit the firecrackers, and Qin Anming pulled off the red cloth with force to reveal the plaque inside.

The sound of firecrackers crackled, and people passing by stopped to watch. Xiaoguo saw the words on the plaque following the smoke from the firecrackers.

Italian spicy hotpot.

Six large, powerful characters appeared before people's eyes, and people pointed at the plaque and guessed what it was selling.

At this time, Ruyi seized the opportunity and stood at the door to introduce the situation in the store to everyone.

After listening to Ruyi's introduction, people were all interested.

People who haven't eaten yet come in to try it out of curiosity, and it's not expensive anyway.

Among them were old customers who came to show their support and entered in an orderly manner.

At this time, the soup base in the kitchen had already been boiled, and the aroma wafted out, tempting the people outside the door to try something.

People who had already eaten came in for the smell, and if they didn’t eat much, they ate less.

Everyone has returned to their positions. Ruyi, Linglong and Fu'er are cooking ingredients in the kitchen. Uncle Xu is weighing and collecting money at the counter. Xiao Cui is cleaning the table and washing the dishes. Qin Anming is preparing ingredients and replenishing what is missing.

The division of labor was clear, and everyone stood at their positions and started to get busy at the first moment.

Seeing that many people came in the morning, Xiaoguo also started to get busy and asked Zhuangzhuang to follow Uncle Xu closely and not come out of the counter.

I followed Xiao Cui to clean the table, wash the dishes, and help wherever there was busy.

The first day of operating under this model was a good start. The business went well in the morning without any chaos. People were able to accept the new model and adapted well.

After a busy period, people gradually left and everyone stretched their backs to relax their muscles.

Qin Anming ordered some ingredients and found that a lot of them were gone. However, they had anticipated this situation and prepared a lot of ingredients, which would be enough to last for three or four days.

Xiaoguo knew that now that the busy morning was over, it would be busy again at noon, and then there would be the evening. Xiaoguo was really worried that they couldn't handle it.

But looking at their appearance now, there should be no problem. Everyone's face is full of positive energy, without a trace of fatigue.

Xiaoguo was in no hurry to leave. She packed up with them and prepared to welcome the lunch crowd.

Soon it was time for dinner, and people started to come in. Some came because of its reputation, some were recommended by friends, some were just passing by and saw the novelty, and some were eating there for the first time to try it...

The group cheered up and continued to work.

Just as Xiaoguo had collected the dishes on the table and was about to take them to the kitchen, a tentative voice was heard.

"Xiao Guo?"

Xiao Guo turned around and looked at the person who came, "Su Hui!"

The person who came was Su Hui, who was somewhat surprised to see Xiaoguo here.

"What are you doing here?"

Xiaoguo didn't elaborate, just said that he knew the shopkeeper and came over to help out for a day when the business just opened.

Su Hui nodded, and then Xiao Yi's voice rang out, "Auntie, is Zhuangzhuang here?"

Xiao Guo realized it was him, so she told him where Zhuang Zhuang was. After Xiao Yi left, Xiao Guo realized that Tang Zhu was there too. The main reason was that he didn't say a word. Although he looked strong, his presence was not very strong. If you stood aside, you wouldn't notice him unless you looked closely.

Xiaoguo also greeted him. It was not a good time to reminisce about the past. Su Hui's meal came out just in time, so Xiaoguo left and moved the dishes back to the kitchen.

It was the peak time at noon, and there were obviously more people than in the morning. Xiaoguo was so busy that she had no time to rest. But even so, she still kept an eye on the movements of Su Hui's family because she had to give them the preserved eggs before they left.

The reason why Xiaoguo gave them the preserved eggs was that they gave them the sawdust for free last time. Although it was a worthless thing that would be thrown away, Xiaoguo still wanted it after all and he didn't want to use it for nothing.

On the other hand, I was thinking about what Su Hui said about Confucius setting up a college, so I wanted to build a good relationship with her so that I could keep her informed if there was any progress in the future.

Thinking of this, I came out from the kitchen and saw them put down their chopsticks.

Xiaoguo quickly called them over, came to the counter, and asked Zhuangzhuang to hand her the smaller oil-paper packages, six of which were just enough for one meal.

Zhuangzhuang followed Xiaoguo out. Xiaoyi first pulled Zhuangzhuang up and talked to him.

Su Hui took the oil-paper package from Xiao Guo and asked, "What is this?"

Xiao Guo said, "This is the preserved egg I pickled a few days ago."

Su Hui heard this new word, opened it and said in surprise, "This, this is sawdust?"

This thing called preserved egg is actually wrapped in sawdust!

Hearing this, Tang Zhu came over to take a look, also with a look of surprise on his face.

"Yes, there are duck eggs inside. After processing, the duck eggs inside are transparent and black. After peeling, cut into pieces, then add minced garlic and ginger, and mix with vinegar. "

Su Hui looked down at the duck egg in surprise, she didn't expect that this could be done.

After thanking Xiaoguo, he called Xiaoyi, who was with Zhuangzhuang, to leave. After hearing this, Xiaoyi grabbed Zhuangzhuang's hand reluctantly.

Seeing this, Su Hui explained to Xiaoguo with some sadness.

"Our Xiao Yi wandered around with us and didn't have many friends, so...when he was at home, he thought about Zhuang Zhuang every day."

Xiao Guo nodded in understanding. So that was the case. He did not rush the two children and let them talk alone.

Zhuangzhuang led Xiaoyi to the door and watched the three people return to the carriage. Only after they walked away did he follow Xiaoguo into the house.

After watching Zhuangzhuang return to the counter, he turned around and went back to the kitchen to get busy.

After the lunch crowd left, the restaurant regained its brief peace. A group of people worked hard to clean up, and then everyone had a portion of spicy hot pot, which was lunch.

It was Zhuangzhuang’s first time to eat it, and he ate a lot, more than a big bowl.

Xiaoguo and Ruyi were talking on the side.

“There shouldn’t be so many people at night.”

After listening to Xiaoguo's words, Xiao Ruyi nodded in agreement. Nowadays, more people go to restaurants at night. After a busy day, they drink some wine to relax and most of them will not come to eat noodles.

Xiaoguo was getting ready to go back because he had a lot of things to do.

Before leaving, Xiaoguo handed the preserved egg to Qin Anming, then turned to Ruyi and said, "This is the duck egg I made myself. Just add some minced garlic, ginger and vinegar when you eat it."

The two nodded. Qin Anming looked at Xiaoguo and Zhuangzhuang reluctantly and assured them, "I'll go back when I'm free."

"Uncle must come back!"

Zhuangzhuang was talking on the side, and afraid that he might not keep his word, he stretched out his finger to pull the hook.

Qin Anming smiled dotingly and reached out to hook Zhuangzhuang's hand.

After bidding farewell to the two, Xiaoguo drove away holding Zhuangzhuang in her arms.
