Chapter 640: Nine to Five



"Of course I'm just joking with you. If you weren't with me, who would you be with?" Rong Zhen looked at him lovingly. Gu Yunru pretended to be in deep thought and nodded. "Maybe I'll end up alone. I'd rather be alone than be with someone who doesn't like me. I'm not like some people who just keep saying slogans."

After saying that, she looked into Rong Zhen's eyes, held his face and said, "You, you look like this now, you can be said to be an old uncle, but you can still attract so many women. I warn you, if you dare to do anything to let me down, then you can forget about seeing me and Yaya again!" Gu Yunru's words were full of warnings, but in Rong Zhen's eyes, they were full of fun.

"Okay, don't worry, I wouldn't dare do anything behind your back."

"That's better!" Gu Yunru couldn't help but have a headache as she thought about the chef. She yawned lazily and fell asleep on him.

The next morning, Xiniang brought Ma Zi to Gu Yunru. They looked like they had something to say to them.

"What's wrong, Xi Niang? Is there anything?" Xi Niang nodded and winked at Ma Zi, asking him to come closer. Ma Zi raised his eyes and said, "Boss, I heard that you have been worrying about finding a cook these days. In fact, Qiao Er's spirit has almost recovered.

Why not let him take charge of the cooking?"

"How can we do this? What if he puts some weird things in the guests' meals?" Cai'er said unhappily at the side. However, this was also what Gu Yunru was worried about. After all, he was a madman who had just recovered from schizophrenia. If he was allowed to cook and something went wrong, who would everyone hold responsible?

"Actually, shopkeeper, Qiao Er's spirits have almost recovered these days, and he would go to the kitchen to make some noodles in the middle of the night. Ma Zi and I both tasted them and they tasted very good. You can try this lotus cake he made."

Gu Yunru brought the hibiscus cake close to her nose and sniffed it gently. It tasted quite fragrant. She even tasted the sweet core when she took a bite.

"You call Qiao Er over first, I have something to ask him." If you want to see if a person has been cured of schizophrenia, the best thing is to ask him a few questions.

Since Qiao Er came to Lin Lai, he has never dared to talk to women face to face. He is somewhat shy and timid in front of women. Gu Yunru looked at him and said, "Qiao Er, did you do all these things?"

He nodded and pointed to the other pea yellow and mung bean cakes on the table, which he had made last night. Gu Yunru took a small bite and thought they tasted very good.

He looked at Qiao Er and said, "Do you really want to be a chef?" Qiao Er nodded with a gleam in his eyes, which showed that entering the kitchen was indeed a very important thing for him.

"Well, I'll give you a chance. You will be in charge of everyone's meals these few days. If nothing goes wrong within these fifteen days, I will order you to be the chef of Huajianlou. What do you think?" Gu Yunru gave him a chance. Xiniang was extremely happy, and she and Mazi looked at Qiao Er eagerly.

Qiao Er nodded. Although his speech was not very clear at the moment, he understood very well that the woman in front of him had given him a very precious opportunity.

During this period, the meals that everyone ate were much richer. Rong Zhen tasted the mutton bone soup and found it very delicious. He looked at Gu Yunru and said, "I remember that the new cooks in our Huajianlou didn't seem to know how to cook these things. How did they get rid of this mutton smell?"

Gu Yunru put down the spoon and said, "We have to ask Qiao Er. He has been in charge of everyone's meals these days. If everyone thinks it's good, then it's fine.

He can be the cook of Huajianlou. Qiao Er was originally a cook. He is just returning to his old profession by doing these things. "

The bridesmaid nodded her head in agreement. When it was time for dinner, everyone gathered around a large stone table and had a great time. Gu Yunru also enjoyed this time very much. Suddenly, she thought of something. There were a few special ingredients that had to be picked up by someone in person on the mountain. Otherwise, there was no way to cook them.

"Husband, I will accompany you to the mountain every day. I drew a picture to tell you what these ingredients look like, but I'm afraid you've made a mistake. This herb looks very similar to a poison called paraquat.

So I have to go with you in person." This is a Chinese medicinal herb that can be used as food. If you can grow some of it in your backyard, it can treat many diseases.

"no problem!"

Rong Zhen held his hand tightly. Gu Yunru looked at Xi Niang and asked with a smile, "By the way, Xi Niang Mazi, do you know any men around here who are talented, handsome and knowledgeable? It would be best if they are about the same age as Xiaoyu. It would be fine if they are three or five years older than her."

"Um... well, Boss, we haven't been out of Huajianlou in the past few years. Qizhou City has changed so fast that we are still a little uncomfortable with it."

"Yes, yes, boss, you can go to the notice board and take a look. There are many scholars or talented people on the list..."

Everyone gave her some advice. Gu Yunru poked the chopsticks with her chin, seeming to be thinking about something.

"My wife, this matter cannot be rushed." Rong Zhen looked at Gu Yunru. Gu Yunru seemed to have put all her thoughts on finding a future husband for Xiaoyu.

"No, how can we not be impatient? A girl's youth is only a few years long. Everyone should be alert. If anyone comes to Huajianlou for dinner these days, pay close attention. If there is anyone who is good-looking and well-spoken, please leave your name and address!"

Gu Yunru knocked on the bowl and chopsticks and announced this important news to everyone. Everyone looked at each other and the bridesmaid couldn't help but lean over and asked, "Ask for someone's address, isn't this a bit exaggerated?"

"It's not an exaggeration at all. Let's say our restaurant is going to hold a prize contest and select three lucky diners. The winner will receive a hundred taels of silver notes, as well as delicious lotus cakes and crab roe cakes!"

Rong Zhen couldn't help but coughing. He was choked by the food. He didn't expect his wife to be so generous and use this method.

"Everyone needs to be alert! Do you understand?" Gu Yunru looked at everyone and reminded them again and again, and everyone nodded.

The next morning, Gu Yunru packed her things and looked at Yaya who had opened her eyes. She couldn't help but give her a kiss on her little face. This little thing with a milky fragrance was just like a small meat dumpling.
