Chapter 39: 10 yuan to cook 20 dishes
Meng Shuyue sneered in his heart, but agreed readily.
She stretched out her hands in front of Song Shijing and Song Shiyu, "If you want me to cook, then pay me!"
When Song Shijing saw that she readily agreed to cook without asking him for help, his face instantly turned as gloomy as ink.
Song Shiyu was very happy, thinking that it was because of his persuasion and his great charm that Meng Shuyue was so obedient.
So, he also took out five dollars from his pocket and put it in her palm, smiling and said: "Cook it carefully, it would be best if each bowl is like the meat dishes in the state-owned restaurant. Everyone is spoiled in the yard and has a picky mouth. You have to let everyone see your cooking skills, so that someone is willing to marry you, right?"
Song Shiyu blinked and looked at Meng Shuyue, the meaning of his words was obvious.
That's because if you cook delicious food, maybe he will marry her without caring about the bastard in her belly.
Song Shijing on the side reluctantly took out five dollars for her after a long time. His thin red lips were like a sharp knife blade, and he said coldly: "Yanyan likes to eat chicken feet, so you should braise more. If there is any money left after cooking, remember to give it back to us!"
Meng Shuyue looked at the ten yuan in his hand and laughed angrily.
Twenty dishes, they want pork elbows, pig intestines and pig tongues, and you only give them ten dollars?
These ten dollars were not even enough for them to order a plate of Chinese cabbage and steamed fish in a restaurant, and they actually wanted her to prepare a main dish?
They have all been to restaurants, don’t they know how expensive meat is?
Or are they all spoiled brats who don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, and think that everything is cheap if they cook for themselves?
Meng Shuyue curled the money into his palm.
Unexpectedly, those young masters and young ladies who had just mocked her in a sarcastic manner began to name their favorite dishes again.
"I love eating Fuqi Feipian."
"You should also buy some braised pig ears and pig heads."
"Stir-fry the pork liver, make sure it's tender, not too overcooked."
“…”
Meng Shuyue held ten dollars in her hand and listened to the idle young men and women talking nonsense to each other, asking her, a pregnant woman with a big belly, to prepare so many dishes. She sneered in her heart.
Is this a collection of all the pig's organs?
Finally, these twenty people finished reporting the names of the dishes and urged her to go buy them quickly.
Meng Shuyue's heart was finally at peace. He didn't even look at them and hurriedly went out with the basket of vegetables.
After being abandoned by the two brothers of the Song family at the door of the police station, she walked for a full hour before returning home.
Her feet had been sore for a long time.
But when she thought about curing the mouths of these playboys, her legs and waist pain were no longer sore.
In less than five minutes, Meng Shuyue arrived at the state-owned restaurant with the best business on the street.
She went in carrying a large basket of vegetables, and the waiter inside led her in to eat with an expressionless face.
Working in a state-owned restaurant is considered a stable job, so these waiters receive a fixed salary of only 50-odd yuan, and they are not very enthusiastic when serving customers.
Meng Shuyue grabbed the waitress who was leading the way and took out the five dollars she had prepared in advance from her pocket.
"Comrade, here are five dollars for you. Can you..."
The waitress' eyes lit up, and her originally droopy face instantly smiled, "That's easy, just wait two hours, and I'll prepare what you want for you right away!"
Meng Shuyue drove out of the restaurant with a happy smile, strolled around the street, and then went home carrying the empty basket covered with a cloth.
As soon as she got home, she pretended that the basket was very heavy and carried it to the kitchen step by step with difficulty.
She glanced at the people in the hall who were playing cards happily.
No one noticed her busy pregnant belly.
Only Su Yanyan still remembered her. She looked at her proudly, with her head leaning on Song Shijing's shoulder, as if provoking her.
Meng Shuyue was speechless. She didn't care about the two of them making love together, so why would she care about them leaning on each other's shoulders?
Ignoring them, he finally used a sleight of hand to carry the basket back to the kitchen.
Meng Shuyue did not light a fire or burn coal.
She just sat in the recliner and started reading the book on difficult and complicated diseases in traditional Chinese medicine that she had not finished reading last night.
Two hours passed quickly.
Meng Shuyue went directly out the back door and went to the state-owned restaurant.
The waitress who had just collected the money hurriedly handed her a big bag which was divided into many small bags.
"There are exactly twenty dishes, all prepared according to your requirements. I accumulated them with the leftovers from several guests."
Meng Shuyue nodded, understanding her difficulty, "Of course I understand, how can customers leave such delicious meats?"
That is to say, some really rich bosses will have leftovers when they are tired of eating.
So, it is really not easy for the waiters to save so many leftovers.
Meng Shuyue opened the bag and checked.
Sure enough, they were all the hard dishes she wanted.
She looked at the waiter, a little puzzled, "With so many delicious foods, why don't you take them home to eat?"
“We don’t dare to eat it!”
The waitress waved her hands quickly, looking at the dishes in her hands with disdain, "We have all seen the appearance of those diners. Some have yellow teeth, some cough, and some have abscesses on their mouths. How dare we eat the leftovers stained with their saliva? It's better to be greedy than to get sick!"
Meng Shuyue couldn't help but agree deeply. Indeed, no one could tolerate eating the saliva of a stranger, let alone seeing customers who looked sick. They would be even more afraid to eat it.
However, when she heard the waiter talk about the disgusting looks of the customers who were eating there, she couldn't help but smile.
Those greedy cats and dogs at home want to have a big meal, so this time, let them eat enough of other people's saliva and taste how delicious the leftover dishes of all kinds of people are.
She returned to the kitchen with the basket of leftovers and started heating them up.
Light a fire, heat up the pot, pour in the pork elbows, which are enough for a plate of food from who knows how many tables, and stir-fry them.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the kitchen door.
Meng Shuyue quickly covered the basket of leftovers with a cloth and then went to open the door.
Song Shiyu squeezed in from outside, looked her up and down with his peach blossom eyes, and a faint smirk at the corner of his lips.
"This is pork elbow, it smells so good. My future daughter-in-law is so virtuous. Thank you for your hard work."
In the narrow kitchen, he sniffed, moved closer and wanted to put his arms around her, but Meng Shuyue slapped his restless hand away.
"Get out now, don't delay my cooking."
Meng Shuyue frowned. Not wanting him to find out that she was using leftovers to deal with them, she urged him to get out quickly.
However, Song Shiyu thought that this was just the interest of a young couple, so he held back his smile and walked away with a sweet look on his face.
She had completely forgotten how he had scolded her for being vicious and for forcing a pregnant woman like her to walk home in the afternoon.
Seeing Song Shiyu leave the kitchen, Meng Shuyue quickly closed the kitchen door and sped up the heating of the leftovers.
She heated up twenty plates of leftovers together with the small stove behind the stove. By pulling the bellows, she had heated up all the dishes in less than twenty minutes.
The aroma of meat was already filling the air outside the hall, making everyone drool.
Dishes were served one by one and placed on the big table in the hall.
