Chapter 124
"Let's eat first." Xiao Yue called a halt and asked them to eat first. …
"Let's eat first." Xiao Yue called a halt and asked them to eat first.
Every time this happened, several young craftsmen would become extremely excited and would immediately stop what they were doing and come over, but they would blush when they got close to Xiao Yue.
The old craftsman in the lead, Uncle Meng, said "Hey" and scolded with a smile: "You work hard, but you eat a lot!"
"It's okay, there's enough food, thank you all for your hard work." Xiao Yue laughed and handed the lunch box to one of the men with dark skin.
“Thank you!”
After a while, everyone had a Yueting self-service lunch box in their hands.
The lunch box is neither too big nor too small, and is divided into two layers. The first layer is full of rice, and the second layer is greasy meat and green vegetables. Even the glass of water that comes with it is extremely cool!
The servant driving the carriage also got a portion and kept thanking Xiao Yue. Seeing that everyone around him was eating with relish, he quickly lowered his head.
The food is worthy of Yueting Buffet!
Xiao Yue had naturally already eaten, so he went inside to take a look around.
In just a few days, the interior of the restaurant has changed drastically, except for the red color.
If I say it was spacious the last time I came here, then this is an exaggeration to say that there is no problem riding a horse or shooting arrows here!
Because all the redundant and removable areas were demolished, the same was true for the second floor.
However, these are the only major changes for now, and everything else, including the kitchen, will take time.
Xiao Yue returned to the back door. Everyone had almost finished eating and started their normal lunch break.
No matter whether old or young, everyone can find a place to lie down or sit for a nap and enjoy it.
"Madam Xiao." However, Uncle Meng didn't rest and took her to a corner to chat: "The day after tomorrow, we can almost make changes according to the drawings you gave us, but what is the extra room on the left side of the first floor entrance used for? This is the first time I've seen it!"
"That's the queuing room." Xiao Yue answered simply, "It's next to Yueting Self-service now."
Uncle Meng still knew this, but he was even more confused: "But when I looked at the drawing, why is there a women's dressing table and a card table... Are these the ones drawn?"
Xiao Yue worked late into the night to draw the blueprint, which was quite detailed. He nodded and said, "These are indeed the things."
"What?" Uncle Meng scratched his head: "Why are you doing this while we're eating?"
Isn't this just killing time?
If she knew what he was thinking, Xiao Yue would probably give him a thumbs up, but at this moment she just smiled slightly: "We'll know when the time comes. Anyway, Uncle Meng and you guys have to come and have a meal."
"How can this be so embarrassing!" Uncle Meng laughed, but he didn't ask any further questions and started talking about other things.
Xiao Yue was originally listening to the story out of boredom, but when he heard something a bit melodramatic, his concentration suddenly increased, and he occasionally made sounds such as "wow" and "is this true?"
Sure enough, it is human nature to love gossip.
After a few more quarters of an hour, the restaurant resumed construction.
Xiao Yue looked at it for a while, and after completing all the necessary explanations, he prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she talked to Uncle Meng, and he said "Okay", and then suddenly seemed to remember something and called her.
"Ms. Xiao, you have to be careful on the road. I heard that there is a thief on South Street who has not been caught yet... No, Ah Cheng, you have to see Ms. Xiao off!"
Ah Cheng, the dark-skinned man, nodded quickly upon hearing this and reached out to help her pick up the lunch box.
Xiao Yue wanted to refuse, but Ah Cheng walked her all the way to the back door, and she felt helpless.
"Really? You can take me to West Street with a carriage, but what about coming back?"
Ah Cheng scratched his head.
Just then, a voice came from behind them.
"Xiao Yue."
Xiao Yue turned around and saw the man in white, handsome and elegant in every move.
"How did you get here?" Xiao Yue raised his eyebrows and took a few steps towards him.
Fu Xunzhou sighed: "You've been running back and forth these days, and I can't even find you to talk to."
say?
Xiao Yue was a little confused and asked him, "What did you say?"
But as soon as she finished speaking, she realized that if Fu Xunzhou didn't want to talk to her privately, he wouldn't have come to her specially.
Xiao Yue looked at the servant in the carriage not far away and Ah Cheng next to him, and was about to add something -
"I was wondering why some people would just throw away a person after using him." Fu Xunzhou approached her, his words sounding dissatisfied, but his expression was smiling.
Xiao Yue was dumbfounded. He could never have imagined that he would say such a thing.
Some people just throw away people after using them?
This someone, could it be her? ?
"What lewd words!" Xiao Yue almost stuttered and looked at him in disbelief.
"Tiger and wolf words?" Fu Xunzhou understood it for a moment, then tilted his head and asked, "Is there?"
Xiao Yue took a deep breath, calmed down and asked back: "Oh, what do you mean?"
This time it was Fu Xunzhou's turn to remain silent.
Which thing?
Is this the most recent one, or the one I helped you buy rouge and powder for last time?
Seeing that he couldn't answer, Xiao Yue couldn't help but snort and laugh.
There seemed to be a natural atmosphere between the two of them, and no one else could interrupt.
But Xiao Yue didn't have this idea, and said to Ah Cheng beside him: "I really don't want to trouble you, otherwise it would take a lot of time to go back and forth."
Ah Cheng became conflicted.
"What's wrong?" Fu Xunzhou looked over, as if he had just noticed that there were other people here.
Xiao Yue casually explained what Uncle Meng had said before.
"So that's how it is." Fu Xunzhou's eyes fell on Ah Cheng, with a smile on his face: "You are naturally worried about Xiaoyue, but I am here, I will send her back, thank you brother."
Ah Cheng was stunned, responded slowly, and then watched several people get on the carriage.
On the way back, Xiao Yue and Fu Xunzhou sat in the car, and the latter asked after they had been driving for a while.
"There are thieves on South Street?"
"I don't know." Xiao Yue leaned lazily against the cushion, and said nonchalantly: "Anyway, I come back early, how can I meet him in broad daylight?"
Fu Xunzhou took in her soft and boneless appearance, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "How about I be your coachman?"
"What?" Xiao Yue was stunned and turned to look at him: "You?"
"Well, the guests who stayed at home finally left, and I have some free time." Fu Xunzhou said this as he peeled the grapes on the table in the carriage.
Xiao Yue looked at it for a few seconds and then looked away first.
guest……
Could it be...
Xiao Yue came back to his senses and continued to lie down: "But I have already hired someone and paid him."
The implication is that you can't just give up halfway. The deeper meaning is, can you drive a horse-drawn carriage?
"How much?" Fu Xunzhou seemed not to understand and put the crystal clear and juicy grape flesh into the plate.
Xiao Yue: "Five taels."
"Then I'll give you five hundred taels."
"......?" Xiao Yue laughed and glanced at him: "I'm leaving the five taels behind and buying you a five hundred taels one to drive the carriage?"
Fu Xunzhou blinked: "I gave it to you."
Xiao Yue: “?”
What's the meaning?
I give it to you?
Is this what Xiao Yue understood? He gave her five hundred taels and then became her coachman?
Fu Xunzhou slid a plate of peeled grapes over to her, lowered his eyes and looked at her and said, "How is it?"
Xiao Yue: “…”
After a few seconds, Xiao Yue silently picked up a grape and put it into his mouth, his voice a little unclear.
But the meaning is clear.
Fu Xunzhou chuckled, the sound was particularly loud in this carriage. Looking at the slightly red ears of the person in front of him, the smile in his eyes deepened.
After a long time, the carriage stopped.
Xiao Yue stretched and got off the carriage, only to see the servant in front walking towards him.
"Madam Xiao, you..."
Xiao Yue was stunned and was about to tell him that he didn't need to come anymore since the money had already been paid in advance.
But the next second, Fu Xunzhou came down from the carriage with the packed grape skins in his hand.
The servant turned his eyes to him, nodded vigorously and firmly, patted his chest and left.
Xiao Yue, who hadn't had time to speak, said: "......?"
She looked at the servant's straight back and looked at Fu Xunzhou in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Fu Xunzhou held back his laughter and shook his head.
Inside Yueting Self-service Room.
When everyone saw Xiao Yue and Fu Xunzhou come in one after another, they didn't act too strange.
Only Duan Lin, who came earlier, noticed something and whispered to Lu Ran, "Are you so complacent?"
Lu Ran glanced at him and said nothing.
Duan Lin touched his nose.
As the sun sets, the aroma of food wafts through Yueting Buffet.
Tonight, Xiao Yue helped Hua Jinjin and Hua Cancan prepare an all-sour banquet. Seven out of the ten dishes were sour, planning a different dinner.
Sure enough, occasionally such a table is loved by everyone, and they will eat their fill even if the food is so sour that it makes them squint their eyes.
Xiao Yue noticed the strange look on Fu Xunzhou's face and wanted to say something, but stopped.
She felt that Fu Xunzhou was so smart that he must have noticed everything.
Because he ate the food cooked by the sisters tonight, but he didn't feel unwell.
Not just this time, but also when Xiao Yue asked the sisters in the store to learn, she was not the only one cooking many times.
Fu Xunzhou has eaten them all. Although the quantity is not much, he can definitely eat it.
Therefore, he must have wondered in his mind, why he could suddenly eat food made by someone other than Xiao Yue?
Xiao Yue was planning to tell him someday that he was not only allowed to eat what she cooked, but could only eat special ingredients.
After all, Lu Ran and the others already knew about it, and as Xiao Yue's friend and patient, Fu Xunzhou also had the right to know.
But this opportunity... I think I have to look for it.
Xiao Yue fell into deep thought.
"Xiao Yue." At this time, Fu Xunzhou approached her and whispered, "It's so sour."
Xiao Yue was stunned, then thought for a moment and said, "Shall I go make some dessert after dinner?"
"Am I the only one who has it?" Fu Xunzhou frowned, "Or does everyone have it?"
Xiao Yue: “……?”
Suddenly I don’t really want to find an opportunity to talk about the special ingredients. Why not kill this guy with green tea?
If she must have it all to herself, she could just send the daily ingredients to his house, it would be so fresh.
Xiao Yue stood up with a wooden face.
Fu Xunzhou raised the corner of his mouth, stood up and followed.
At the dinner table, everyone was still chatting and didn't notice that the two people disappeared one after another.
Xiao Yue came to the kitchen, found the common ingredients, and prepared to make some snowflake crisps.
This is a small dessert with a strong milky flavor and a crispy texture. It is rich in ingredients and sweet but not greasy. It is not only suitable for resolving sour taste, but can also be added to the snack series.
The method is very simple. After Xiao Yue puts on an apron, she adds butter to the pot and melts it over low heat until it is smooth.
Fu Xunzhou asked if he needed help, but was told no. He then turned his eyes to the ingredients on the table.
Red, green, and yellow, the colors are fresh and elegant.
However, there is a very special ingredient in it, which is white, about the size of a thumb, and looks round, plump and soft.
