Chapter 300 I Want to Learn to Be a Chef

Sister Gu didn’t say anything. If the eldest sister didn’t want to go back, then she didn’t have to. Anyway, the whole family had to go back.

Her daughter Yaoyao is going to take the college entrance examination this year, and because of the exam, she was afraid that she would feel stressed, so she brought her to Beijing to relax before the exam.

After the third sister Gu left, Chen Juan said to the eldest sister Gu, "Mom, have you told my uncle and aunt that we are staying?"

Sister Gu said, "Not yet. Why are you in such a hurry? I was so busy yesterday and the day before yesterday. I didn't have time to talk about it."

"Don't worry, you will definitely be able to stay."

Chen Juan, "Mom, you didn't even tell me how I knew I could stay."

She felt that it would be useless to tell anyone else about this, no matter her grandma or grandpa, and it would be best to tell her aunt.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zhao Qinglin's aunt was the head of the family.

Sister Gu was annoyed. "I said you can stay if you want. Why are you in such a hurry? We'll go to the bakery later. You two can talk to your uncle and aunt about it."

"At the beginning, your eldest brother and his wife told your aunt in person."

Chen Juan, "How should we start talking?"

Zhao Qinglin: "I'll tell my aunt."

You are all married people with families and careers and are parents of children. If there is anything, you should speak up yourself and not always bring your parents in first.

Chen Juan: "Okay, go ahead."

For some reason, she felt a little...scared when talking to Zhao Qinglin's aunt.

"Mom and Dad, my brother and his wife are such ungrateful people. We are all family members and we are still connected. We have only been here for two days."

"We also saw them at Chang Yi's wedding yesterday. The couple didn't say a word to us."

Zhao Qingyu has disliked her elder brother and his wife since she was a child. Just because of a trivial matter back then, her elder brother insisted on dividing the family property and treated her, his younger sister, worse than an outsider.

When Gu Changyi got married, they gave her 200 yuan as a gift. When she got married, her sister-in-law gave her a pair of pillowcases.

Yes, it was different ten years ago.

But it's not necessary to treat me so differently. After all, she is more considerate and thoughtful.

She is her biological sister and a member of the old Zhao family.

She did have a fight with her parents, but not with her sister. Why didn't she say hello to them when she met them?

It was as if he didn't recognize him. Zhao Qingyu got angry when he thought about it.

He simply doesn't treat her or her husband as a human being.

Could it be that her sister-in-law is still bothered by what happened back then?

Speaking of this, Sister Gu and her brother-in-law were also angry.

It's been a year, so it's time to let it go. Are they someone else? They are my parents!

Make others laugh.

The eldest brother-in-law snorted coldly and said to Sister Gu, "We raised this son in vain!"

Sister Gu, "It was all Zhang Ning's fault for instigating this."

Zhao Qingyu, "My sister-in-law is getting more and more outrageous. She used to at least say a word when she saw us, but now she just ignores us!"

"It's as if I didn't see you."

It was inconvenient for the son-in-law Wu Yong to stay in such an occasion where people were saying bad things about each other, so he took his son out for a stroll in the hotel corridor.

He felt that what his father-in-law and mother-in-law did was wrong regarding the affair between his elder brother and sister-in-law.

Who would ask for two hundred yuan for support? It’s no wonder that my brother and sister-in-law are angry.

But he didn't dare to say it, and once he said it, he was scolded by his wife.

It was rare for Chen Juan not to complain about Qingmu and Zhang Ning. She was thinking in her heart, if she could stay in Beijing.

Compared with my uncle and aunt, my eldest brother and sister-in-law are closer.

Before you gain a foothold in Beijing, you should try to curry favor with this couple.

Brother-in-law Gu and eldest sister Zhao Qingyu, the three of them scolded Zhang Ning and Qingmu for a while, and then they felt better.

Invite everyone to the pie shop.

They woke up late and it was already ten o'clock when they went to the bakery.

Su He went to work in the morning.

There are only four elders and Gu Jianhua in the shop.

Sister Gu whispered to Chen Juan, "Look, I don't know about other shops, but the pancake shop is short of staff."

Last year, Sister Gu stayed there for a few days and she had a good understanding of the staff model of the bakery.

"I told you that when it got busy at noon, the four people in the front hall couldn't handle it."

"There has to be someone to wash dishes in the kitchen."

Chen Juan was puzzled, "Why isn't there any recruitment at the pancake shop? My uncle is the only one running it."

Sister Gu: "I don't know about that."

It’s not that the bakery isn’t hiring. They are hiring. There’s a notice outside the door recruiting waiters to cut knives.

It’s just that we can’t recruit people. We did hire a few waiters, but they didn’t work there long term.

They would leave after working for three months at most. As for knife sharpening, they had never been recruited.

Gu Jianhua thought that it might be because their store was small and people didn't like it.

For a waiter, it might be more troublesome to serve food and beverage, as cleaning the tables is dirty and some customers get drunk and cause trouble.

The little girl didn't want to do that and would rather go to places like clothing stores and jewelry stores.

Chen Juan was happy, "Mom, let's do it."

Sister Gu, "Don't worry, I'll talk to your uncle later."

Chen Juan, "You should also tell your aunt."

Sister Gu said, "Your uncle still has the final say over this pie shop. Your uncle is in charge of the pie shop, and your aunt is in charge of the other shops."

"I think it's better to tell my aunt." Chen Juan muttered.

"Let's eat first."

The meal was of course stuffed buns, and Gu Jianhua also fried two other dishes.

Zhao Qinglin didn't need Sister Gu to ask anything. He quickly finished two pancakes and went to the kitchen to help Gu Jianhua.

He felt that if he wanted to stay, he had to have an attitude.

Gu Jianhua was surprised. "Qinglin, have you finished eating?"

Zhao Qinglin, "I've finished eating, uncle."

Gu Jianhua: "Oh, OK."

There were more and more customers in the store, and Aunt Yu asked for leave again because of shoulder pain. Seeing that Zhao Qinglin was helping, Gu Jianhua didn't say no.

It does make it easier for him to have someone to help him.

Zhao Qinglin asked, "Uncle, what is knife modification?"

Gu Jianhua, "The person who specializes in cutting vegetables in the back kitchen is called a knife cutter."

"The one who prepares the staple food is called the noodle chef, and the one who cooks the dishes is the chef."

Since he started working in this industry, Gu Jianhua has gotten to know a lot of kitchen staff.

Let’s not talk about a small shop like his. In a big shop, the front of house staff is the front of house staff, the chef is the chef, the cutter is the cutter, and the cleaner is the cleaner.

Everyone is separate and has their own duties, just like a billiard hall.

Zhao Qinglin understood, and he asked Gu Jianhua, "Uncle, can I stay here and learn to be a chef from you?"

Gu Jianhua was surprised, "You want to open a store?"

Zhao Qinglin scratched his head, "I have this idea, but I don't know what to do. I just feel that being a chef is not bad."

"Like you, uncle, open a small restaurant of your own."

Gu Jianhua nodded, "That's right, it's better than farming, which has no future."

“I think so too.”

"But if you stay here, what will happen to your wife and son?"

Zhao Qinglin, "They should stay too, Uncle. Is the pancake shop hiring waiters?"

"Yes." Gu Jianhua nodded.

Zhao Qinglin, "Then let her be a waitress. She can read and write the menu."

"My son will transfer to a school in Beijing."

Gu Jianhua, "You can stay, but the only place left is on the second floor of the bakery."

"Uncle, it's very good of you to let me stay with you to learn cooking. I can live anywhere, even in the living room." Zhao Qinglin said in a very positive manner.

Gu Jianhua didn't say anything, "Okay, have you brought your luggage?"

"No, I'll ask my parents to mail it to me when the time comes."

"It's not a big deal even in this hot summer, as long as you have a blanket to cover yourself."

Gu Jianhua said, "Okay, go up to the second floor and take a look. It's quite big, enough for the three of you to live in."

"There are also faucets and toilets in the store, which is very convenient."

Zhao Qinglin, "Okay, I'll go take a look after I'm done."

Chen Juan was still wondering where her husband had gone, so she got up and looked for him, only to find that he was in the kitchen.

"Qinglin, what are you doing?"

The kitchen was a bit busy, so he said to Chen Juan, "You go over first, I'll talk to you later."

Seeing Zhao Qinglin busying himself, Chen Juan wondered in her heart, would her husband tell his uncle, and then could she stay?

She felt so.

With this idea in mind, Chen Juan became diligent. She told her son not to run around and let her mother-in-law watch him.

She followed behind Gu's mother to clear tables and bring food to the guests.

Gu's mother murmured in her heart that Qinglin's daughter-in-law was quite hardworking.

After I finished the work, I found out that these two people were going to stay in Beijing.

Gu's mother pulled Gu Jianhua aside and asked, "Did you decide?"

Gu Jianhua nodded, "Qinglin wants to learn cooking from me."

Mother Gu said, "You'd better talk to Xiao He. By the way, where will they stay? Upstairs?"

"Yes, upstairs."

"She'll come over later and I'll talk to her," said Gu Jianhua.

Normally his wife doesn't take care of the business in the bakery.

Mother Gu: "Well, tell me about it."

Of course you have to talk about it.

When Su He came back from get off work at noon, Gu Jianhua told Su He about this.

"Qinglin wants to learn cooking from me..."

Su He listened and said, "Okay, your bakery is short of staff anyway."
