Chapter 86
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Xiao Yue felt that there were many unusual figures in the store today...
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Xiao Yue always feels that there are many unusual figures in the store today.
They are all new customers, they all come to eat normally, and they are keen to do it themselves.
For example, mango sago, shaved ice, chicken shredded cold noodles...
Even though they were accompanied by one or two maids or servants, one could guess that they were all rich young men and women.
This group of people did not come at the same time, and when one or two of them occasionally met each other, they looked a little awkward.
Xiao Yue wondered, could this group of new customers know each other?
It was time to order more dishes, so Xiao Yue walked over and took a closer look at the man and woman in front of him who were dressed in luxurious clothes.
The two of them must have just happened to meet at this food pick-up point, and they were trying to be polite with awkward looks on their faces.
Man: "Ahem, Miss Lu comes first!"
The woman said: "No, no, Mr. Liu, you don't have to be polite, you go first!"
Someone came over behind him to line up, and Mr. Liu, who was a little closer to the front, coughed lightly and had to pick up the food first.
As if to ease the awkwardness, Master Liu said, "The dishes at Yueting Buffet are really good. I didn't expect to run into Miss Lu today!"
"It's really good, much better than the one on South Street." Miss Lu kept smiling: "I don't know who spread the word that Yueting Buffet is so-so, misleading so many people. If I had to see him, he would..."
Before she could finish her words, Miss Lu stopped talking and coughed lightly.
Xiao Yue clearly noticed that Master Liu's ears had turned red and his smile was awkward.
"Yes, I almost believed it. Fortunately, Miss Zhang wrote to tell me..."
"You received the letter too?" Miss Lu's tone rose, and then she seemed to realize something, her face flushed: "I mean, that..."
A man and a woman looked at each other, and suddenly they understood.
Master Liu stopped talking and silently quickened his pace in picking up the dishes.
Xiao Yue raised his eyebrows until the two of them left one after another.
It is certain that the group of people coming to the store today are the young masters and ladies from the wealthy families of Liuyun City. From what they said, it seems that they all thought that the food at Yueting Buffet was not tasty before?
But somehow, they received a letter from a "Miss Zhang" asking them to try it out in the store?
Xiao Yue boldly guessed that this Miss Zhang was Zhang Feiyun.
Although the Zhang family is not as big as the Su family and the former Si family, it is also a big family in the city, so this group of young men and women came. But because they believed the rumors before, they would inevitably feel awkward when they meet each other now?
Xiao Yue felt that he had finally understood something and found it a little funny.
But no matter what, she had to thank Zhang Feiyun for "debunking rumors" for Yueting Self-service and attracting so many new customers.
Just as he was thinking, Xiao Yue saw a figure coming in through the door.
The other person moved slowly, with a self-possessed expression, one hand habitually placed in front of his body, and he was talking to the nanny beside him with his ear tilted.
It’s Zhang Feiyun!
Zhang Feiyun seemed to have seen Xiao Yue as well. He raised his eyebrows, smiled, and nodded.
The two people were neither far nor close to each other, and there were many customers walking between them.
Xiao Yue tilted his head, curled the corners of his mouth and nodded in response.
It was a busy time in the store and the other party wanted to eat, so Xiao Yue naturally didn't want to go and chat with him.
So the two of them nodded to each other, then one went back to the kitchen and the other went to the food area.
When most of the customers had left the store, Xiao Yue came to the first floor and looked around, but he could no longer see the figure.
Sure enough, he had finished eating and left.
Xiao Yue laughed in his heart, thinking that it was a good thing this way, there was no need to deliberately make friends, but if one day they wanted to go further and become friends, it would probably just be a matter of a few words.
…
After closing, the store has a lot of inventory to prepare.
Xiao Yue counted them carefully and found there were dried fruits, rice noodle ingredients, Bobo chicken skewers, and things from the cold drinks section.
After all, apart from the fresh meals every day, the rest of the food can be stored for a maximum of three days to maintain the best taste, and today is the time for collective replenishment.
Xiao Yue called Lu Ran and others and assigned tasks one by one.
Now everyone is very familiar with the store's furnishings, so she feels confident handing it over to them.
They were busy until almost dark. Fang Sanhong prepared dinner, and Xu Qingwu was helping her. She shouted as soon as the dinner was done.
"Sisters, it's time to eat!"
Just as Xiao Yue and the others had finished their work, they tidied up the yard, relaxed their muscles, and sat around the dining table.
Dinner was the same as usual, with everything from food to drinks, very rich.
In Xiao Yue's words, no matter how hard a day you work, you must reward yourself well.
Therefore, the dinner at Yueting Buffet is never monotonous and most people always finish their meals.
Sun Wen burped, rubbed her belly and said, "If I keep eating like this, my sister will make me lose weight... Although I haven't heard it yet, I will eat more rose bean paste buns for breakfast tomorrow to make up for my broken heart!"
This made several people laugh.
Then everyone cleaned the table and washed the dishes amid laughter, and then went home.
Fang Sanhong stayed for a while longer and asked Xiao Yue how the meal was.
"Is there a dish that's overcooked and a little fuzzy?"
In addition to Bobo chicken, braised food, drinks, etc., all the stir-fried dishes and soups on the table tonight were made by Fang Sanhong herself.
Since Xiao Yue asked them to learn how to cook, Fang Sanhong has taken it very seriously.
Xiao Yue knew that she was trying to relieve her stress. After all, as things became more and more, there were more things to do.
She smiled and said, "Yes, a little, but it doesn't affect the overall taste. Did Sister Sanhong put too little oil?"
You need to control the amount of oil when cooking. Too much oil will make the dish greasy, and too little oil will inevitably cause the dish to get burnt.
Everything else Fang Sanhong cooked was good, except for the lack of control over the amount of seasonings such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
She nodded, "Okay, let me cook dinner tomorrow too, and improve it a little bit... How about I try to make some of the dishes you've made before?"
"sure."
Xiao Yue naturally agreed, and took the opportunity to chat with Fang Sanhong about the cooking steps. However, when she saw Xu Qingwu squatting and playing with Xiaoju nearby, she slapped her head.
"No more talking. I'll write down the steps and quantities later. It's too late today. You guys should go back early. I..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a knock on the back door.
Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment, went over to open the door, and saw an unexpected person at a glance.
"Fu Xunzhou?"
The man outside the door was dressed in white, tall and handsome, and looked the same as the last time they met, but upon closer inspection, one could see that his eyes and brows were cold and filled with indifference.
Coupled with the faint moonlight tonight, this gloomy feeling is even more obvious.
Not only that, Xiao Yue also saw some fatigue on Fu Xunzhou's face, so he asked with doubt and moved aside to let him in.
Fu Xunzhou didn't say anything, but one could feel that the coldness on his body disappeared a lot after he entered the door.
"Have you eaten?" Xiao Yue asked this question as she led him inside, because she really felt that this man seemed like he had not eaten.
As expected, Fu Xunzhou shook his head, but did not continue. He only said, "I went out to do something and passed by here, so I came to take a look."
"Just taking a look?" Xiao Yue raised her eyebrows and looked back at him.
Anyone could tell that Fu Xunzhou was not in good condition, and his voice was lower than usual.
Fang Sanhong on the side was obviously more confused about his arrival, but she didn't ask much and walked towards Xu Qingwu.
Fu Xunzhou was silent for a few seconds and said, "Regarding Xu Qingwu's matter, the government has already made a follow-up."
Fang Sanhong stopped.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yue stood up straight and looked at Xu Qingwu who turned around after hearing the voice.
She was obviously a little confused about hearing her own name.
Fu Xunzhou said calmly, "Since Tao Li and her two brothers were no longer able to raise Xu Qingwu, the government allocated her a place to live near the school, provided her tuition after she turned five, and sent a wet nurse to take care of her until she reached adulthood."
In fact, the government does not need to go to this extent. At most, they can just give some money and be done with it.
But the government not only arranged a place for Xu Qingwu to live, but also assigned her a wet nurse because of her young age, and even took into account her studies in a year...
The fact that Fu Xunzhou could say this in front of several people showed that the decision had already been made.
The yard was somewhat quiet.
When Xiao Yue saw Fang Sanhong's eyes moistened, she felt relieved and touched, and her heart was touched.
Xu Qingwu will have a future no matter what. Even if there is darkness for a while, the road ahead will be bright.
Fu Xunzhou shifted his gaze from Xiao Yue to the quiet girl in the courtyard, and suddenly said, "The nurse who will take care of you has not been decided yet. Duan Lin will bring a few people here tomorrow, and you can choose by yourself then."
These words were spoken to Xu Qingwu. Although the girl was young, she was able to understand what was going on.
Fang Sanhong came back to her senses and pursed her lips.
Xiao Yue thought that this was a good idea, so that he could let his people take a look at it, and ask the nanny to pay more attention to it in the future...
Unexpectedly, Xu Qingwu suddenly stood up and ran into Fang Sanhong's arms, holding Xiao Yue with her other hand.
"I, I want Sister Fang, I want Big Sister, I don't want..."
Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment.
This means...
"Xiao Wu." Fang Sanhong squatted down and hugged her tightly without blinking: "Are you trying to say that you want to be with me in the future?"
Xu Qingwu nodded, tears rolling down her face, her voice choked but clear: "I don't want my mother, I want my sister!"
I want a sister.
This sentence was enough to make Fang Sanhong laugh. While wiping her tears, she said gently, "Okay, okay, I want Xiaowu too."
The tears in her eyes finally fell.
Xiao Yue watched from the side, feeling shocked and emotional, but in the end, he just smiled.
She looked at Fu Xunzhou and asked, "Let Xiao Wu choose the person she wants to live with in the future, should this be okay?"
Fu Xunzhou nodded and said "hmm".
That's good!
Xiao Yue felt even more emotional.
For a moment, I forgot one question: how did Fu Xunzhou know this news?
The smile on Xiao Yue's face did not disappear until Fang Sanhong took Xu Qingwu away.
It’s great that Xiao Wu chose Sister Sanhong. Sister Sanhong now has deeper companionship, and a little figure can be seen more often in the store in the future.
Everyone is happy!
After closing the door, Xiao Yue returned to the backyard and saw Fu Xunzhou.
He did not leave with them. When Xiao Yue sent Fang Sanhong and the others out, he stood in the backyard waiting for her to come back.
The moonlight tonight is indeed not very good. Even with candles lit in the store, the light is not that bright.
Fu Xunzhou was standing at a junction, with light on one side and darkness on the other.
