Chapter 35

Congratulations to the host for winning the bamboo stick

It was not until three quarters past noon that Yueting's people who had gone on their own gradually left.

Xiao Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but when he returned to the front room, he didn't expect that Fu Xunzhou was still sitting there.

"Mr. Fu, you..." Xiao Yue was really surprised this time: "Are you okay?"

It wasn't a sarcastic tone, but a serious inquiry, because Fu Xunzhou's appearance at this moment was not much better than in the morning.

His face was as pale as thin paper in the morning, and now there was only a little blood color on it. Anyone could tell that something was wrong.

Fu Xunzhou stood up upon hearing that. Even though he looked unhappy, he still stood still. When he stood up, he seemed shorter than the person in front of him.

He walked up to Xiao Yue and said softly, "I'm fine, I just didn't eat anything the whole day yesterday."

"All day?" Xiao Yue was shocked. Seeing that Fu Xunzhou was not lying, she became even more confused: "Why?"

Judging from his appearance, he should be a self-disciplined person, although he would deliberately avoid the peak hours of Yueting Buffet when there are many people, and come for lunch later.

But don’t we still have breakfast and dinner throughout the day?

Fu Xunzhou pursed his lips and seemed even more sickly in his white clothes.

Then Xiao Yue saw his lips move, and the sound of his voice was like a clear spring in the mountains.

"I don't know whether you believe it or not, I..."

"Master Fu!"

Duan Lin's voice suddenly came from the door, and then a head popped in: "Why don't we go back together? It's on the way!"

Xiao Yue paused, turned his head and looked over, only to see Duan Lin grinning at him.

She remembered that this person had disappeared after breakfast and had only come for lunch a quarter of an hour ago. Now after lunch, he came back to ask Fu Xunzhou to go back with him.

So convenient?

"Forget it." At this time, Fu Xunzhou sighed lightly: "Next time there is a chance, I will slowly talk to the girl."

"...Okay." Xiao Yue responded, blinked and watched his figure leave without thinking any more.

After all, if a person doesn't eat for a day, it would only be because of an uncontrollable event. Seeing how calm Fu Xunzhou looks, it shouldn't be a big problem.

A quarter of an hour later.

After Xiao Yue and Fang Sanhong cleaned up the shop, they returned to the kitchen to prepare a good meal of rice noodles together.

As long as there is a staple food, the other condiments can be added anytime and anywhere.

Not to mention the meat. Apart from the ham and fried eggs, Xiao Yue had been preparing the rest since the renovation of the front room yesterday until the early morning. He made a big pot of each and cut them into pieces and placed them in the storage cabinet.

This storage cabinet was one of the things Xiao Yue had prepared before. It was not only moisture-proof, but also prevented the aroma of food from escaping. It could store food for about ten days at most.

After all, there was too much meat to put in the rice noodles, and Xiao Yue couldn't finish it in a whole morning, so he could only prepare it in advance and store it.

As for the seasoning, it is even simpler. Just cut some onions, garlic, coriander and mint, and add the bone broth at the end, and you will have a bowl of smooth, soft, delicate and refreshing rice noodles.

Xiao Yue opened his mouth and felt that his body and mind were sublimated. He took another bite of the runny egg and swallowed the rich yellow egg liquid along with the rice noodles.

It’s so cool!

The same goes for Fang Sanhong. The meat she chose was crispy intestines and fragrant liver. The crispness of the two kinds of meat matched with the softness of the rice noodles made it fragrant and layered in every bite.

Before I knew it, the food in the bowl was gone.

Xiao Yue finished the soup and finally felt stronger. She picked up the sour plum soup and sighed, "Luckily, I have Sister Sanhong..."

They naturally had buns for breakfast this morning, but once they got busy they had no time to rest.

Fortunately, except for the time when Fang Sanhong had to take turns to make lunch, Xiao Yue took turns with her the rest of the time, and the two of them were more than enough to handle the situation.

But he was still very tired. Xiao Yue didn't even dare to imagine how busy he would be if he were alone.

"No, helping you is actually helping myself, isn't it?" Fang Sanhong said angrily, picking up the water and clinking glasses with hers naturally.

To be honest, when Xiao Yue asked Fang Sanhong the night before yesterday if she had any old craftsmen who were familiar with the renovation of the courtyard wall, she had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Sure enough, when Xiao Yue directed several veteran craftsmen to break down the wall connecting the kitchen and the front room to make a window yesterday, Fang Sanhong was no less shocked than anyone else.

But her emotions still fluctuated, and finally she chose to support Xiao Yue and believe in all of Xiao Yue's decisions.

Isn’t today the best proof?

Xiao Yue laughed, his heroic eyes rarely moved, and he leaned back to chat, "If the store adds more porridge, do you think we should add five or three kinds first, Sister Sanhong?"

Fang Sanhong naturally knew about the breakfast plan, and said thoughtfully: "Let's increase it gradually, starting with three types. The century egg and lean meat porridge you mentioned earlier sounds good..."

"There is also purple sweet potato and yam porridge." Xiao Yue half-closed his eyes, looking lazy and comfortable.

Fang Sanhong chuckled and couldn't help but tap her head with her finger: "Who would be greedy if there were so many delicious foods every day?"

Who is dying of jealousy?

Xiao Yue shook the chair he had bought yesterday with a few veteran craftsmen, and felt happy.

Of course, it makes everyone jealous!

After Fang Sanhong left, Xiao Yue started to bake the biscuits and dried fruits. But when she pulled out the tray for the last time, she hissed softly.

I raised my hand and saw a blister on the tip of my middle finger, and the skin around it was red.

This was not caused by the scalding just now, but by the hot oil that accidentally splashed on Xiao Yue when he was frying pork skin in the early morning.

After all, the oil pan was burning almost from morning to night, and Xiao Yue was a little tired at that time, so he easily got a blister.

Fortunately, she has gotten used to it, because it's not just the blisters. After working in the kitchen for so long, no one's hands can be smooth and tender.

This is already considered good for Xiao Yue. It is normal that his palms are still a little rough and calloused.

However, the blisters were not pleasant to the eyes after all, so Xiao Yue mixed some light salt water to wipe them, and then found a clean cloth to wrap them.

By the time we finished the work, it was almost dark.

After washing up, Xiao Yue lay down on the bed, yawning all the time.

I didn't sleep well last night, so I have to go to bed early today...

[Ding!] The host's fame progress bar has been detected to have changed. The current fame level is: somewhat famous. Congratulations on the upgrade, please keep up the hard work! 】

[Rewards for upgrading the fame progress bar have been issued: points x10000, random gift package x1, please check! 】

As soon as Xiao Yue closed his eyes, the electronic sound of the system suddenly rang in his mind.

Unlike the last time when it was cold, this time it was full of activity.

Xiao Yue suddenly opened his eyes, and asked in a daze: "... Upgraded?"

[Yes, it’s upgraded!] 】

In the darkness, Xiao Yue's eyelashes fluttered. After a while, he raised his hand and summoned the system panel.

The next second, her eyes reflected the blue light of the system, as if they were brighter, filled with smiles and contentment.

Especially when he saw the remaining points "65,000", Xiao Yue felt it was a matter of course.

Excited, of course excited.

But this upgrade was within expectations, the only difference was coming a few days earlier or later.

Xiao Yue just didn't expect to be upgraded on the first day. It seems that this breakfast worth ten copper coins and the unprecedented kitchen window are very satisfying.

Well, it is expected that there will be more customers tomorrow.

【Host! 】

[Do you want to open the gift package?] 】

Xiao Yue raised his eyebrows and responded simply, then he saw a small gift bag appear on the panel.

She thought for a while, then reached out and clicked.

A few seconds later, a picture appeared on the opened gift package, showing a thin...

Xiao Yue narrowed his eyes, and after he saw clearly what it was, the system's voice rang out.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the "bamboo stick!"]

“…”

Bamboo sticks are indeed very common items in the kitchen. Without them, skewers are not called skewers.

But compared with the oven that came in the previous gift pack, the gap is too big.

Xiao Yue fell silent. The most important thing was that this thing might be used in the future, but right now she couldn't think of what it would be used for.

Shouldn't she have spent those few seconds thinking before smoking? Could she have just tried something else?

[Host, don't be discouraged.] 】

Xiao Yue found it a little funny to listen to the system's dry consolation.

It's nothing in the first place, do you think I'm angry?

Xiao Yue closed the system panel, turned over and closed his eyes, muttering casually: "My heart is as sad as a knife. Unless you give me a good thing next time and give me tens of thousands of points, it would be even better if the mall has a discount or something..."

system:【……】

Met a host who would take what he wanted and wouldn't suffer any loss.

——

Due to the opening of the breakfast shop, the customer flow of Yueting Buffet doubled for two consecutive days.

Rice noodles, in particular, have become the signature dish of Yueting Buffet. Every morning, more people eat them than eat buns.

After all, there is more mint today, less sauerkraut tomorrow, and even the taste will be completely different if there is more soup or less soup, not to mention there is so much meat.

Everyone hates their own stomach, why is it so small!

Facing so many people, Xiao Yue was already adept at handling the situation. Fang Sanhong even quickly became proficient in boiling rice noodles, and the bowls outside were never empty.

The rose bean paste stuffed buns that Xiao Yue specially added today received a lot of praise, especially from Su Xiaoxiao.

"...It's soft, sticky and sweet, so delicious that I can eat eight of them a day! And Sister Xiao, you don't know, my mother praised me for getting up so early these two days! Unlike someone who only says I'm lazy!"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and made faces at Cheng Min beside her while speaking, which made Cheng Min pinch her face.

"Who said you were lazy? Didn't we agree to come together?"

Xiao Yue saw the interaction between the two, but said nothing: "It's fine as long as Xiaoxiao likes to eat it, but don't make your stomach upset."

"I know!"

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao strolling away, Xiao Yue withdrew his gaze and glanced at Fu Xunzhou in the corner again.

Seeing that I was looking over, he nodded and said, "Miss, have you had breakfast?"

It was halfway through breakfast, and Xiao Yue was preparing lunch in the kitchen. There were not many people in the front room, so she asked, "We've already eaten. Mr. Fu, do you still want to sit here all day?"

"Miss, are you not welcome?" Fu Xunzhou tilted his head.

Xiao Yue raised an eyebrow, a little puzzled: "Of course you are welcome. Master Fu is sitting here. I am happy just to see him."

If someone says that the store is popular, which boss would be unhappy or say that they are not welcome?

Fu Xunzhou raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "That's good."

Xiao Yue was also happy to see this, especially when he looked up and saw the endless stream of customers and thought about the points he had saved, he felt even happier.

Until the end of business today, Xiao Yue had a smile on his face.

"What's wrong?" When Fang Sanhong came over, she saw her looking at the two familiar tall figures with emotion.

On the other side, Duan Lin looked at the man beside him strangely: "Sir, what are you laughing at?"

In the kitchen.

Xiao Yue sighed: "When I think about so many customers every day, I want to laugh."

On the bridge.

Fu Xunzhou said modestly: "She said she was happy to see me."

Duan Lin: “……?”

who?
