After things were settled, Xiao Yue arranged the store's affairs first. For example, home

After things were settled, Xiao Yue arranged the store's affairs first.

For example, in a home-style restaurant, she kept the steps for two dishes that were later rotated, and also added wolf tooth potatoes, which many customers missed, to the flavor series.

There are not many changes in hot pot restaurants. The way of eating is still there. What’s important is that the soup base, ingredients and dipping sauces are attractive enough.

Xiao Yue arranged everything within one day. In fact, there was nothing too important to do. After all, the round trip was expected to take less than half a month.

After finishing the shop business, Xiao Yue began to pack the things he needed to take, except for some necessary items - food and drinks.

She made some lazy bibimbap and pickles. There were four of them in the group. Except for Xu Qingwu who had a special lunch box, the others were quite interested in getting blind boxes.

As long as food is taken care of, nothing else matters.

As for Fang Sanhong and Fu Xunzhou, they naturally packed up their things and gathered at Xiao Yue's house. The former loaded many bags onto the carriage, while the latter... took nothing with him either.

Xiao Yue didn't have anything to say about this, and only said: "There are lunch boxes on the way. When we get to Qingyun City, we may not know what the meals will be for the first few days."

I guess as soon as I get there I'll be busy selecting a site, contacting local craftsmen, choosing furniture, etc., mainly because I don't have a kitchen yet.

"It's okay." Fu Xunzhou said calmly, "I can make it for you. My skills have improved recently."

Xiao Yue: “……?”

An anorexic patient who usually just helps out and can make noodles at best, now says that his cooking skills have improved?

Xiao Yue was skeptical.

"Is there anything else you want to take?" Fang Sanhong came over expressionlessly and interrupted the two of them: "If you don't have anything, go to the store and tell the sisters, pick up Xiao Wu and set off."

Xiao Yue coughed lightly, picked up Xiaoju and got on the carriage at the door.

Fang Sanhong put the things in her hand on the car and was about to move to the driving position when Fu Xunzhou was already sitting there steadily.

"Sister Sanhong and Xiaoyue, please rest together. I will take care of the rest of the journey."

“…”

Fang Sanhong sat back with a sullen face.

In the early morning, the red sun slowly rose and the rotating wheels stopped at Yanting Bridge on West Street.

Xiao Yue got off the car first and prepared to go to the store to say goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao and others.

Fang Sanhong was going to the dessert shop across the street because Xu Qingwu was going to leave with her and she was reluctant to let her go, as she had slept with Xiao Lian last night.

Unexpectedly, as the two men came down one after the other, footsteps sounded from the opposite side, from far away to near.

"Sister Xiao, Sister Fang!"

It was Xiao Lian, holding Xiao Wu who had just woken up in her arms. She smiled when she saw them, and then said, "Are we leaving now?"

"Well, you got up so early?" Fang Sanhong took Xiao Wu and asked.

However, Xiao Yue saw some hesitation on Xiao Lian's face, and then she glanced at the carriage and pursed her lips.

"Some things have happened in the past few days, but don't worry, sisters. It will be dealt with soon. Make sure you have a safe and smooth trip to Qingyun City!"

The person Xiao Lian's eyes were looking at just now was Fu Xunzhou, but her eyes were not filled with any emotions, but were clear and calm.

Xiao Yue recalled that she didn't show up for the barbecue the day before, and couldn't help but wonder what happened.

But Xiao Lian didn't say anything, and Xiao Yue didn't know how to ask, so he just said, "Okay, I'll bring you some local specialties when I come back."

"Uh-huh!"

Xiao Lian nodded happily, then said goodbye and left, but she did not go back to the shop across the street, but left in a hurry.

Fang Sanhong also noticed something was wrong. She glanced at the sleepy Xu Qingwu, thought for a moment and asked, "Xiaowu, you said before that Sister Xiaolian has been very busy these days?"

"Hmm?" Xu Qingwu said in a daze: "It seems so. Sister Xiaolian said that someone is sick and she wants to visit..."

Before she could elaborate, Su Xiaoxiao, Sun Wen, Lu Ran and two other sisters came out of the store after hearing the noise.

They said goodbye reluctantly and took Xiaoju over.

Humans can adapt to the environment and water and soil quickly, but kittens may not be able to do that.

Xiao Yue was worried that Xiaoju would have a stress reaction if it was in a hurry to get there, so he had to leave it behind.

"Meow~"

Xiaoju tilted his head to look at her in confusion, then the cat stared at the carriage as it went farther and farther away, and its tail gradually stopped wagging.

——

Qingyun City is located near the mountains and the sea, and has a strong local flavor. In the past few years, the road between the two cities had not yet been repaired, and a round trip was arduous and time-consuming.

Now the road was smooth and although the carriage was shaking, Xiao Yue felt that he only needed to take a nap and eat a few meals before arriving at his destination.

At that time, the sun was rising in the east, and Xiao Yue could see from afar a small number of stalls set up at the city gate.

Dried salted fish, coconut water, various handicrafts...

The carriage needed to be inspected before entering the city. Fu Xunzhou stopped at the city gate for a moment and continued to drive inside.

After entering the city, Xiao Yue had a deeper feeling about the different aspects of this place, and he pulled Xiao Wu to look outside the car curtain.

The buildings in Qingyun City are mainly high-rise buildings. Due to the rapid development in the past two years, the houses on the main streets are painted with colorful lacquer, and colorful laces are hung under the eaves. The stalls on both sides of the road are also some novel things...

Compared with Liuyun City, a small city full of worldly affairs, it is quite different. Even when passing by a pier, you can see a beach extending like a crescent moon!

The sea water is light blue and the beach is golden. It is a nice place, but no one is walking there at the moment.

It’s not that Xiao Yue had never seen the sea before, but he quickly looked away and focused more on eating.

She looked around as the carriage moved along.

The food sold here caters to the local people's tastes, mostly seafood, but there is a fishy smell in the air. The rest of the food is relatively common, and are all common street snacks.

They all have one thing in common – the average price is no less than four hundred and fifty copper coins.

Even a glass of coconut water.

Xiao Yue suddenly felt like she was back in time, as if she had come from the "village" to the "big city."

Not only has the place become larger and the buildings more distinctive, but the prices are also eye-opening, even more outrageous than Liuyun City.

Xiao Yue silently lowered the car curtain and exchanged a glance with Fang Sanhong on the other side.

“…”

“…”

Soon after, the carriage stopped in front of an inn.

When they first arrived, Xiao Yue and his friends had a plan while eating on the way. They would first stay in the hotel to rest and refresh themselves, and put off other matters until later.

The rooms are naturally the best ones, numbered Tian, ​​of which there are three in total.

As Xiao Yue went upstairs, she said to Fu Xunzhou, "You should go and have a rest soon. You must be tired after driving the carriage for so long."

Fu Xunzhou didn't look tired at all, but he still nodded obediently and separated from her at the door.

"My bones are all stiff." Fang Sanhong stretched his body and took Xu Qingwu to the farthest room.

There were not many people living on the huge third floor. Seeing that both of their doors were closed, Xiao Yue stretched and went back to his room.

This is the best inn in Qingyun City. The interior is very distinctive. The patterns on the teapot are all fish patterns. The overall style is fresh and elegant.

But when Xiao Yue walked into the inner room and saw the big bed shaped like a clam shell, he stopped in his tracks.

"Here comes your hot water!"

Just then, the waiter knocked on the door. It was the hot water that she had asked the store to deliver to the room before she came up.

Xiao Yue went to open the door, and then watched the waiter carry hot water behind the screen and pour it into a bathtub with conch shells pasted all over the body.

“…”

Half a minute later, Xiao Yue, who was soaking in the bathtub, fell into silence, which he later realized was a little funny.

I know that Qingyun City is unique because it is by the sea, but isn’t this a bit too unique?

Xiao Yue didn't soak for long. She quickly got up, changed into underwear, and lay down on the bed to rest.

The weather in Qingyun City is much better than that in Liuyun City, and it seems as warm as early autumn.

When Xiao Yue woke up, the sun was shining brightly at noon and she could feel some warmth even when she opened the window.

She looked at the hustle and bustle downstairs, changed her clothes, and went downstairs to ask the waiter if she could use the kitchen.

The waiter was the one who had just delivered the water. He was serving a customer from the No. 1 room and he immediately said it was no problem.

Xiao Yue was taken to the kitchen. It was already after noon and the busiest period was over. There were only two chefs here making simple meals.

"Please feel free to use it. We have all the ingredients here and they are guaranteed to be fresh!" said the waiter, and then he gave instructions to the chef before leaving.

The two chefs looked honest and dutiful. Xiao Yue nodded to them and went to the empty stove.

It is worthy of being the best inn in Qingyun City. The kitchen is clean and tidy, the ingredients are well laid out and there are many varieties.

Unfortunately, some people on this trip had special physiques, so Xiao Yue could only pretend to bend down to select the ingredients, but actually replaced them with those produced by the system.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been so “sneaky”.

Fortunately, the stove was facing away from the two chefs, and the two chefs were concentrating on cooking and didn't pay much attention to this side.

Xiao Yue didn't plan to make any big dishes, but prepared some simple soy sauce seafood fried rice and seaweed egg drop soup.

First, process the rice. You need to add soy sauce and dark soy sauce and mix them evenly until it turns brown and the grains are distinct.

Then prepare the shrimp, squid tentacles and corn kernels, fry them all in hot oil, simply add seasonings, then add the prepared rice and stir-fry evenly, finally sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve.

Next is the seaweed egg drop soup. Boil water, add ginger slices, sesame oil, seaweed and small shrimps, then beat a bowl of light yellow egg liquid, stir evenly in circles and let it fall slowly.

The moment the soup began to boil again, Xiao Yue scooped it out and divided it into four small bowls.

There was a tray in the kitchen. She put all the food on it and took it out quickly.

The whole process takes no more than a quarter of an hour!

The waiter was about to come in to check on the situation, but when he saw this, he quickly took it and helped to deliver it.

The soy sauce seafood fried rice and seaweed egg drop soup were just out of the pot and the taste was at its most delicious, with the fragrance lingering wherever they passed.

The waiter took a few glances at them when he put them down, swallowed his saliva and went downstairs. Unexpectedly, someone asked about them as soon as he reached the stairs.

"Hey, what was that food?"

"Do you have a new dish?"

"It smells so good, give me one!"

“I want one too!”

The waiter was stunned and quickly waved his hands to explain, feeling a little embarrassed.

"...We never thought that such a girl with excellent cooking skills would live here. It's really an honor for our restaurant!"

The customers on the first floor sighed with regret, feeling that the food in their mouths no longer tasted good.

Small hall on the third floor.

Xiao Yue naturally had no idea what was happening downstairs. He was just about to call Fu Xunzhou and Fang Sanhong, but unexpectedly the former had already come out.

He changed into loose clothes, making his features look more lazy.

The two of them went together to call Fang Sanhong and Xu Qingwu. The latter came out, smelled the fragrance, and ran over immediately.

When Xu Qingwu took the first bite of fried rice, she exclaimed, "It's so delicious!"

Xiao Yue laughed.

It’s just a simple bowl of fried rice, but when the eater gives the cook enough emotion, that feeling is naturally very pleasant.
