Chapter 65 Attraction



At this time, the people arranged by Su Chenyu to go to Xujia Village to buy vegetables also arrived, and Wang brought her family with her.

Mr. Xu asked, "Why are you all here? Isn't there anyone at home?"

Wang said, "I heard from the people Chenyu sent to pick up the vegetables that the barbecue restaurant will open tomorrow. I was worried that you would be too busy, so I came to help. I have arranged everything at home, and I have asked Chunsheng to look after the greenhouse! I have handed over the workers' meals to the village head's wife."

Qibao smiled and said, "It's good that Grandma and the others are here. It's a good opportunity for our family to witness the opening of the barbecue restaurant, right?"

The whole family smiled and nodded.

The group all entered the barbecue restaurant. Wang and the others had already been attracted by the paintings on the wall and praised them, "Wow, this painting is really beautiful! I have never seen such a painting before! It's so cute!"

Li also said with emotion, "Yes, this is the first time I've seen such a painting! Look, not only are the people painted beautifully, but even the leaves next to them look so real, and the colors are beautiful too."

Xu Laosan said, "This calligraphy is also interesting and really fun!"

But the mother was still attentive and pointed at the girl doll on the wall and said, "It looks like Qibao to me. Mom, sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, do you think it looks like Qibao?"

After a closer look, they found that it really looked like Qibao...

Uncle Xu said, "This is Qibao! These paintings were all painted by Qibao, and there are also some in the box. They are very beautiful. Qibao even wrote a poem for it!"

Everyone admired each box again and praised it highly.

After everyone had finished reading, Qibao said, "Grandma, Aunt, Second Aunt, and Mother, you must be tired after riding in the carriage all the way. Go to the backyard and rest. The servants are here to take care of the dishes. My eldest brother and his family have already returned and are reading in the backyard!"

The family came to the stone table in the backyard again, and Qibao said, "Brother Chenyu, Brother Jingchen, let's eat at the barbecue restaurant tonight. How about trying these things? You can also taste them yourself first."

Su Chenyu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

"As for the grand opening tomorrow, Uncle will set off the firecrackers. Grandpa, you will stand at the door and greet the guests tomorrow. Aunt, if the waiter is too busy tomorrow, you can just help serve the dishes. Grandma will take care of the accounts!"

Xiao Liu said, "What about me? What should I do?"

Qibao said, "Sixth Brother, you don't have to do anything, just stay in the backyard!"

Xu Laosan said, "You little bastard, how can you help me? Go learn how to read from your elder brother! Your elder brother is often praised by the teacher at the academy. You should learn from him!"

Xiaoliu pouted in dissatisfaction and ran to find his elder brother reluctantly.

Mr. Xu said with some embarrassment, "But Qibao, I haven't spoken in front of so many people yet. If I say something wrong, it will become a joke!"

Qibao smiled and said, "Master, what are you afraid of? You are the head of the family! If you don't speak up, who will? Just show your energy as the head of the family. This is just a small scene, so just treat it as a training session."

Mr. Xu said awkwardly, "Isn't your grandmother the head of the family?"

Wang cursed, feeling both amused and helpless. "You old fool! There's no matter how big or small the family matters are, we haven't consulted you, and now you're trying to frame me! Qibao asked you to do something, but you're making excuses!"

Mr. Xu said, "Okay, okay, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that I can't do it well. Then I'll try my best!"

Qibao said, "Grandpa, you can do it, come on!"

Su Chenyu said, "Grandpa Xu Qibao is right. You are the oldest here, so of course you should speak for everyone!"

So in the following time, everyone saw Mr. Xu put his hands behind his back, stand up straight, cough, and start to figure out how to speak.

Wang and the others went to the kitchen and brought the ingredients for tonight's meal to the front hall. The waiters helped to get bowls and chopsticks. Qibao said to the shopkeeper, "Uncle Zhang, please ask the waiters and cooks to come and eat. They can sit at any table. We have to know the taste of our own food, otherwise it will be embarrassing if customers ask us. Take whatever you want to eat. Don't waste it. You can eat as much as you want!"

Shopkeeper Zhang said happily, "Thank you, Miss. I haven't eaten barbecue like this before. It must be delicious!" After that, he gathered all the workers in the store and explained Qibao's intentions to everyone. After hearing this, their faces were full of smiles. They all bowed to Qibao and thanked him, "Thank you, Miss and gentlemen!"

Qibao nodded and said, "Go prepare the food and try it. If you have any comments or suggestions, please tell me. We will strive to make our Iron Triangle BBQ restaurant the best!"

"yes!"

Everyone started taking their favorite dishes and found a table to sit down. Since one table was not enough for everyone, they had to share several tables before they could sit down.

Several brothers sat at a table, watched by three sisters-in-law to prevent them from getting burned.

The charcoal stove under the table was already burning brightly. Qibao poured a little oil, took an eggplant and started to roast it, and put some mutton and chicken legs on the side. After a while, the oil began to sizzle. Qibao took a pair of tongs to turn the meat over. The meat was cut thinly and cooked quickly. Sprinkle it with chili powder and cumin powder, flip it a few more times and it was ready to eat.

Everyone tasted it and found it delicious. The cumin and barbecued meat were absolutely amazing. Everyone gave a thumbs up. Su Chenyu said, "Business will definitely be good tomorrow. This barbecue is so fragrant."

Qibao opened the roasted eggplant, sprinkled some minced garlic, cumin and chili pepper on it, and roasted it for a while until the eggplant was bubbling. He said, "Everyone, try this roasted eggplant. It tastes very good."

After hearing what Qibao said, everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate some food. Wang said, "I didn't expect that not only the meat tasted good when roasted, but even the vegetables tasted good too. They're soft and very much to my taste!"

Qibao said, "If grandma likes it, just bake it. Everyone can do it themselves and bake whatever they want."

The food on the brothers' table was all baked by the three sisters-in-law. Except for the eldest and second brothers who were older and ate more politely, the others didn't bother to talk while eating. Their mouths were burned and they sucked in air, but they were unwilling to slow down their chopsticks. They were scolded by their mother several times because they couldn't bake as fast as their brothers.

The aroma of barbecue gradually wafted out the door. Passersby on the street, heading home, caught wind of the aroma, their empty stomachs growling. They followed the scent to the entrance of the Iron Triangle BBQ restaurant. A middle-aged man dressed in a dark green satin suit said, "Isn't this the old Yipinxian? Are they selling barbecue now?"

An old man replied, "Master Qian, this store has been under renovation these days. It looks like it's finished. I guess the aroma coming out now is the smell of barbecue! It smells really good."

"Yeah yeah"
