Chapter 103 Jinjiang Debut
The charcoal was heated, and Que Ge took out the skewered lamb, lined them up on the grill, and took out a large palm-leaf fan, fanning the grill vigorously. After a while, the surface of the skewers was cooked. Que Ge skillfully picked up a handful of cumin and sprinkled it on the skewers, then took out a can of brown seasoning from his bag. After sprinkling the seasoning on, the aroma of barbecue came out immediately.
Several people were watching on the side, drooling with greed. Lame Brother didn't keep them waiting for long. He quickly grilled the first kebab and distributed a few to everyone. Little Yang took a bite as soon as she got it and burned her lip, leaving a small blister.
After the skewers had cooled down a little, everyone started to taste them. Xiao Yang used sign language to praise Brother Que's cooking skills. Even Weng Xuhua and Gao Jin asked Brother Que to grill a few more skewers. Brother Que smiled proudly.
Bai Mian asked, "What did you sprinkle on it just now? I feel like the taste of this skewer is a little different from the outside."
Lame brother patted his chest and said: "Of course it is my secret seasoning, which cannot be passed on to others. What do you think? I still have something, right?"
Bai Mian nodded: "It's really good, it tastes very unique. Since you are so good at cooking, why don't you open a store?"
Lame Brother sat on the grass and smiled awkwardly: "Haha, opening a store requires initial investment. My family is not rich and can't afford hundreds of thousands of dollars to open a store for me."
Bai Mian wanted to say something, but Weng Xuhua stopped her immediately: "Hey, little apprentice, please stop poaching my employees. Xiao Yang has already left, are you going to empty my store?"
Lame brother smiled and said, "Boss, since you are so reluctant to let me go, shouldn't you give me a raise? After Xiao Yang leaves, I will have to do the work of two people, which will definitely not be easy. How about this, you give me Xiao Yang's salary as well?"
When talking about salary, Weng Xuhua immediately started coughing: "Ahem, well, I'm telling you, you're so young, don't always focus on money, you should also look for the meaning of life like Xiao Yang."
The lame brother held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and said: "Oh, what is the meaning of my life? I am a lame man, already over 30 years old, and the only thing that matters to me in this world is a salary increase, that's... that's all."
I don't know what he was thinking about, but Lame Brother's mood suddenly became low. Weng Xuhua understood his thoughts and said to him with a smile: "You, it seems that you have someone you like. If you like her, go after her! If you don't take the initiative to say it, how can the girl know your feelings?"
Lame brother said dejectedly: "With my body, how could she be interested in me..."
Gao Jin immediately comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Love is all about fate. When fate arrives, everything is possible. How about this? Let Mian Mian take your pulse, then she'll know everything, right?"
Que Ge's eyes were evasive and he didn't answer. Bai Mian stretched out his hand, but Que Ge retracted it all of a sudden. He refused, "No, no, I absolutely won't let you feel my pulse. I've already said that love falls from the sky. If you spoil the plot for me in advance, won't there be no surprise at all?"
As he said that, Lame Brother stood up, went back to the oven and continued to grill the skewers skillfully, as if nothing had happened just now.
Looking at his back, Weng Xuhua muttered: "I usually see this boy as fearless, but I didn't expect him to be so shy in relationships. He's just like an unmarried girl!"
Brother Lame placed the prepared ingredients on the table one by one. The tendons and squid were brushed with barbecue sauce and made a crackling sound on the grill. The hot peppers were hollowed out and stuffed with meat and roasted until slightly burnt, emitting a spicy aroma. The potato chips were roasted until golden and shiny, still retaining a hint of crispness... All the skewers that passed through his hands were delicious.
Bai Mian and others were feasting on the food while Que Ge was sweating profusely as he grilled the food beside the rack. He only had time to sit down and eat something after everyone else had eaten their fill.
The drink tonight is ice beer. Under a bright starry sky, several people sit on the grass, drinking beer and chatting. The moonlight shines gently on everyone. The evening breeze blows, and large patches of grass sway in the wind, like a concerto.
This was the first time Bai Mian drank alcohol since coming to the human world. After drinking a few glasses, she realized that alcohol had no effect on her at all. On the contrary, Sister Yang next to her drank a lot, and there was a pile of empty bottles lying at her feet.
Under the influence of alcohol, Sister Yang rushed over enthusiastically, hugged Bai Mian's neck tightly, and frantically signed to her:
"Thank you, it's you who gave me all this, it's you who saved me, I will always remember you!"
Bai Mian had no choice but to let her hug him. After a while, Sister Yang finally finished her story. Bai Mian gently touched her head, and she smiled foolishly.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Weng Xuhua and Gao Jin also drank half a glass of beer. They were not drunk, but just felt cool and refreshed. The two old men linked their hands in the evening breeze, seeming to recall some past events from their youth.
After a long while, everyone realized that Brother Lame was motionless. Bai Mian turned around and found that Brother Lame had fallen on the grass and fell asleep quietly.
"How much did he drink?" Bai Mian frowned and walked over to him to check, but only found a small cup with a lot of beer left in it.
Weng Xuhua laughed, pointed at the lame brother and said, "I've never seen this guy drink before, it turns out he gets drunk after one glass of wine!"
Lame Brother was drunk, so everyone had to carry him back and let him stay in Ci Xin Hall overnight.
Sister Yang took a train at 4 a.m., and after returning to the store, Weng Xuhua gave her this month's salary and said to her via WeChat:
"Girl, don't worry. As long as we are still here, Ci Xin Tang will always be your home. Remember to come back when you are free. We don't have much time left. Don't let us only see you on TV."
Sister Yang's eyes were red and she bowed to Weng Xuhua and Gao Jin again. After a brief stop, she hurried to the train station with her luggage.
Bai Mian returned to her room. Today she had awakened her new skills in advance, so the system voice did not sound as usual. She picked up her mobile phone and saw that the number of fans had reached 500,000. It seemed that today's "bridal chamber" live broadcast was really a sensation.
Just as Bai Mian was about to fall asleep, she received a WeChat call from the third client of the day, Mu Tianxue. Bai Mian picked up the phone and Mu Tianxue on the other end of the phone said excitedly:
"Master, you are truly amazing. You are right about everything!"
Bai Mian did not speak, but waited quietly for Mu Tianxue to continue. Mu Tianxue described it with great excitement:
"Master, I listened to you and went home immediately after leaving Cixin Hall. I didn't go to the rehearsal. Then Cui Mingyue kept calling me, one after another. When she saw that I didn't answer, she changed her number and called me. I was so upset that I simply turned off my phone. I didn't turn it on again until their wedding was over."
"Master, guess what? During this period of time, I actually had more than a hundred missed calls! Our mutual friend told me that the best man with a buzz cut got furious when I didn't show up at the rehearsal and smashed everything at the wedding. Cui Mingyue was so scared that his face turned pale. In order to beg him not to make trouble, the groom knelt down to the buzz cut man!"
"They both promised the man that I would show up at the wedding, and he finally calmed down. Before the wedding started, Cui Mingyue called me frantically, and the other bridesmaids noticed something was wrong. Since I didn't answer the phone, the groom even rushed to my door and banged on it. Of course, there was no way I could open the door for him."
"So, until the wedding time came, they still couldn't find me, so they had to randomly pick a relative to be the maid of honor. When the bride came on stage, the man with the short hair found that I was not among the bridesmaids. He flew into a rage and overturned the dining table. In front of all the relatives and friends, he dragged the groom off the stage."
"The relatives and friends were all terrified. They had never seen such a scene before. The man with the buzz cut took off his suit, revealing his tattoos. The other groomsmen followed suit. They pulled off the groom's pants and stuffed a lit firecracker into his underwear."
"Just think about that scene. Hiss, after a loud bang, the groom's thing was blown to pieces. He stood there howling with blood flowing from his legs. I think he is useless. But that's not the end. They also dragged Cui Mingyue off the stage and threw her into the swill bucket in the hotel kitchen. The whole wedding became a farce!"
"Because this incident was such a big deal, the loan shark company called to recall the crew cut group. After they left, the relatives and friends at the scene dared to call the emergency number and the police. The bride and groom were sent to the hospital. The bad things they did were also spread by their relatives and friends. Now everyone knows that these two people are worthless. They have become a joke in Qingshui Town and are too embarrassed to stay here. I heard from a mutual friend that the two of them plan to divorce quickly, move to other places, and never come back!"
"How are those debt collectors doing?" Bai Mian asked.
Mu Tianxue said: "Of course they were taken away by the police. The police found them based on clues and wiped out the company. The crewman and his men have been detained and are awaiting sentencing!"
"That's good." Bai Mian nodded. It seemed that this divination would benefit more than just Mu Tianxue.
Mu Tianxue said gratefully: "Master, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would be in trouble. I can't believe that you are so accurate in your calculations and it only costs ten yuan! I feel really bad. I want to transfer ten thousand yuan to you as a thank you fee..."
Bai Mian interrupted her hurriedly and took a long time to reject her.
As night fell, Bai Mian felt sleepy after hanging up the phone. She simply washed up, changed into pajamas, and fell asleep hugging the quilt.
