Qian Duoduo followed Qian Xiang to the state-run restaurant in Shangzhi County. Master Nan and Fatty Wang were much more straightforward than Liu Haibo and Master Jiao. Qian Duoduo also made two dishes with spiced tofu as the main ingredient. Fatty Wang directly ordered two trays of spiced tofu from Qian Duoduo and signed an agreement with him.
Qian Duoduo took out two pieces and gave them to Master Nan and Fatty Wang, immediately winning their favor. She could make delicious food and was so generous. She was also the sister of Qian Mao, the most popular person in Secretary Lu's eyes. It would be good to cooperate with her more!
Seeing that Qian Duoduo signed the agreement so easily, Qian Xiang smiled happily. They drove the oxcart to the next stop, the Bee Commune.
When the head chef saw Qian Duoduo, his expression turned somewhat grim. He still hadn't fully figured out what the secret of that special sauce was.
Their restaurant stopped using their secret sauce, and the other party didn't say anything. But he didn't think it was because the other party was generous. Because he stopped using the girl's secret sauce, he gets scolded every time someone orders Mapo Tofu, which makes him afraid to make the dish now.
Today he encountered a problem. The secretary of the Bee Commune sent someone to reserve a table of dishes, including Mapo Tofu, and he was having trouble deciding what to do!
Seeing Qian Duoduo looking at him with a smile, he felt that she was silently cursing him!
Qian Xiang saw Zhang Yun, the person in charge of the state-run restaurant, pointing his finger at the head chef and yelling at him. But when he saw Qian Xiang appear, he immediately smiled and said, "Comrade Qian, you've finally arrived. Did you bring your secret sauce?"
Qian Xiang shook his head and said, "Because the Bee Commune hasn't needed our secret sauce for a long time, I didn't bring it with me this time."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yun turned around and glared at the restaurant's head chef, his face filled with anxiety: "Is there anything that can be substituted?"
Qian Xiang smiled and said, "No."
The restaurant's head chef glanced at Qian Duoduo, who was smiling beside him, gritted his teeth, and said, "Young lady, I was wrong in this matter. I wonder if you could help me?"
Qian Duoduo laughed and said, "Why should I help you when you've gone back on your word?"
Qian Duoduo's words caused the restaurant's head chef's expression to change, and Zhang Yun's gaze also turned towards her with a hint of hostility. He looked at her face and asked, "Are you Qian Duoduo? Qian Mao's sister?"
Qian Duoduo looked at the middle-aged man in front of her, and after confirming that she did not recognize him, she asked, "Do you know me?"
Zhang Yun smiled and said, "I know your brother Qian Mao. He once told me that he has a very cute and smart younger sister. I also have a niece who is in the same class as you in the county middle school, so I have seen you at her house."
Qian Duoduo nodded, her mind racing. She smiled and said, "You're Zhang Wei's uncle?"
Zhang Yun said with a smile, "Yes, I didn't expect our meeting to be in such an awkward way."
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "It's your turn to be embarrassed, I'm not embarrassed at all."
The restaurant's head chef's expression also changed. He didn't know the others, but he had heard of the name Qian Mao.
A while ago, when Secretary Lu came down to inspect the work with the county committee, they ate here. He was the one who cooked. He remembered that Secretary Lu's secretary was named Qian Mao. He was now filled with regret, having offended someone over the price of a bottle of sauce.
Seeing Qian Duoduo's silent smile, Zhang Yun said, "Little girl, can you help us?"
Qian Duoduo glanced at Zhang Yun and then at the head chef in the kitchen who dared not say a word. Even though the other party was her classmate's uncle, Qian Duoduo did not stand on ceremony and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I don't have confidence in your people. The agreement was signed back then, and you just break it like that. I can't agree to such untrustworthy people. Otherwise, we'll end up like the farmer and the snake, or Mr. Dongguo and the wolf."
We're only losing a small amount of money, but you're losing your restaurant's reputation. Honesty is the foundation of everything.
Zhang Yun blushed slightly at the words, glared at the head chef who was cowering with his head down, and cursed him in his heart. But this Mapo Tofu was specially ordered by the commune secretary, who said that he had eaten this dish at the state-run restaurant in the county town and found it very delicious. Since it could be made here, he would make it as well.
The only person who can resolve this immediate issue is Qian Duoduo, since the head chef has already given up entirely. He has secretly decided that once this matter is over, he will find a new head chef.
Seeing Qian Duoduo's indifferent expression, Zhang Yun pulled her aside and said, "Little girl, I know our master chef has done some unethical things, but this matter has nothing to do with him. I'll give you his solution later, but can you help your uncle get through this difficult time?"
Qian Duoduo saw the urgency in Zhang Yun's eyes and understood that this must be a very important matter. Since she had met Third Brother, she would help him out and make a friend for him!
Thinking of this, Qian Duoduo nodded: "Uncle Zhang, you are Zhang Wei's uncle. She is a classmate of mine who I am quite close to at school. But Uncle Zhang, let's keep things separate. I can help you out this time, but I'm in charge of the dishes this time!"
Zhang Yun immediately nodded: "As long as we have this Mapo Tofu, that's fine."
Qian Duoduo nodded: "Then I'll go check the kitchen now!"
Zhang Yun immediately took Qian Duoduo to the kitchen. Qian Duoduo looked around and saw that there were quite a few dishes prepared, including many kinds of meat. Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Have the side dish preparers come over and help with the cooking. I need to prepare all the vegetables I need."
