The next day at 1 p.m., Chen Zhiyong arrived at the restaurant with Zhang Yongyan and Liu Fang.
Before even entering the door, Chen Zhiyong assured Zhang Yongyan and Liu Fang, "Don't worry, we'll definitely be among the first to arrive today."
Brother Yang and Sister Dong arrived with Uncle Dong this morning, so we definitely weren't as early as them. But Duan Jian and Song Rui definitely weren't as early as us, especially that kid Song Rui; he's probably still sleeping at home.
As Chen Zhiyong spoke, he led Zhang Yongyan and Liu Fang inside.
As soon as the three entered, they saw that everyone else was already there except for the three of them.
Even a group of children were already waiting.
Feng Qifan grinned at Chen Zhiyong, who looked completely bewildered, and said, "Brother Dayong, you're late. You're the last ones here today, so according to the agreement between Dad and us, you'll be responsible for cleaning up after class today."
Lu Yue sidled up to her brother and said, "Big brother is in charge of cleaning."
Besides Feng Qifan, Lu Yue, and Yang Xiaoxi, Lu Yaorong's daughter Lu Shiyi was also in the restaurant.
Lu Shiyi is one year younger than Feng Qifan. When summer vacation started, Lu Shiyi was at her maternal grandparents' house.
However, one night, Lu Shiyi's aunt said she was taking her out for a late-night snack.
Unexpectedly, the restaurant that her aunt brought Lu Shiyi to was actually her uncle's restaurant.
Lu Shiyi saw her aunt and uncle in the restaurant, as well as Feng Qifan and Lu Yue, which made her think that coming to the crayfish restaurant was very interesting.
It just so happened that Lu Shiyi's aunt didn't have much time to spend with her because of work, and there weren't any other children at her grandparents' house to play with. So Lu Shiyi simply told her parents that she wanted to stay at her grandparents' house for a few days.
So, Lu Shiyi was sent to her grandparents' house.
These days, Lu Shiyi has become one of the children at the restaurant.
Lu Yue pulled her older sister along with a grin and introduced them: "Sister, this is the big brother, and these two are the big sisters."
Looking at Chen Zhiyong, Zhang Yongyan, and Liu Fang, who were all much older than her children, Lu Shiyi felt embarrassed to call them "brother" and "sister."
However, after Lu Yue introduced Lu Shiyi to them, Chen Zhiyong and the others took the initiative to greet Lu Shiyi.
"Hello, you can call me Brother Dayong, just like your Brother Fanfan. This is Sister Zhang Yongyan, and this is Sister Liu Fang. You can also call Sister Zhang Yongyan your sister-in-law."
Zhang Yongyan immediately felt embarrassed: "What nonsense are you talking about? We're not even married yet."
Chen Zhiyong said with a grin, "That's just a matter of time."
Liu Fang, standing to the side, laughed and said, "Hey Youyou, my brother, can you two not be so affectionate in front of the child?"
Zhang Yongyan blushed even more and became even more embarrassed: "Liu Fang, why are you joining in the teasing too?"
The children all laughed happily.
When Feng Haidong saw that everyone had arrived, he pointed to the aprons on the table and said, "Alright, one for everyone. There are three left. You three can each choose one."
Hearing Feng Haidong say this, Chen Zhiyong and the others then realized that everyone was wearing aprons.
Moreover, the apron that Feng Haidong gave us was very different; it looked like it was custom-made, not the kind of apron you can just buy on the street.
The apron fabric is all quite thick, and the apron is very wide, enough to cover the entire chest.
Besides the adults, several children also wore similar little aprons.
Even a little girl like Lu Yue was wearing an apron.
Feng Haidong and the others put on aprons, and then said to Chen Zhiyong and the other two who arrived late, "These aprons will be considered part of our work uniforms from now on. The aprons have our restaurant's logo on them, so when you wear them to greet customers, they will be able to recognize who works for our restaurant at a glance."
Chen Zhiyong looked down at his own apron, then at the aprons on the others, and said with a smile, "Uncle Dong, the apron you gave out is really quite nice."
Liu Fang said, "Yes, this girl is very pretty."
Zhang Yongyan said, "Moreover, the apron is very thick and has a very large surface area, which can cover most of the oil stains and prevent them from getting the clothes dirty."
Yang Chengjian laughed and said, "Haha, we've been praising you for ages before you even arrived."
Dong Xia said, "Yes, we all think that Brother Feng's custom-made aprons are fantastic."
Feng Haidong said, "We have a brand now. Even my daughter Shiyi's aunt will come to our house specifically to eat when she takes her out for a late-night snack, which shows that we are already well-known."
Lu Shiyi said, "Yes, yes, Uncle, my aunt told me on the way here that she and her friends have come to eat here many times. Many of her friends come to eat here, and they all think of your house when they think of eating crayfish."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "This is exactly the effect that Uncle-in-law wanted to achieve."
Then, Feng Haidong said, "Alright, alright, is everyone ready? We're going to start learning in the kitchen now."
So almost all the adults and children responded in unison: "Ready!"
Feng Haidong led everyone into the kitchen.
Fortunately, the kitchen was big enough to accommodate so many people.
At Feng Haidong's instruction, the children were protected by the woman in a relatively distant place.
After everyone was in position, Feng Haidong began to explain the cooking method for crayfish in a very serious manner.
"Crayfish itself doesn't have much flavor, so it needs some other flavors added. For example, if you give it a spicy flavor, then crayfish will be spicy; if you give it garlic flavor, then it will be garlic flavor."
