Chapter 103 Reassurance
Gu Yunyi said that he just happened to have nothing to do and hadn't been there for a while, so he followed along.
As soon as they arrived, they saw a group of people gathered at the door, mostly children, and the adults were mostly old ladies and men, all of them looked quite happy.
Xu Qingmeng had sharp eyes and immediately saw Xinting and Chen Niangzi standing at the innermost part.
"What's going on? Why is it so lively?" she asked as she walked over.
There was an auntie next to me who didn't know she was the owner. She smiled enthusiastically and introduced, "The snacks made by Jinxiuxuan are so tempting. The kids at home were making a fuss and insisted on eating them. This kind-hearted girl brought some from the kitchen and said she was giving them to us to try. She didn't charge us a penny. You say this... it's really embarrassing."
She said she was sorry, but the lady kept squeezing her way in, stretching her neck to look forward, and she didn't look embarrassed at all.
Xinting also saw her sister-in-law and winked at her, indicating that she should go in first.
Xu Qingmeng nodded, then took Gu Yunyi and walked through the other side of the door while these people were scrambling for cakes.
Liu Zhigang had just finished cooking a pot of mung bean cakes. Seeing Xu Qingmeng coming, his eyes lit up: "Boss, you're here. Xinting said this morning that you were not feeling well, and we were worried. Are you feeling better now? Why don't you take a day off?"
Xu Qingmeng waved her hands: "It's okay, it's just Yun Yi who's making a fuss. By the way, what's going on outside?"
Liu Zhigang smiled and said, "Mrs. Huang sent someone to come this morning. She said that the shop makes a lot of snacks every day for practice. We can't finish them if we take them back. So we decided to give some to the people outside before the shop opens. We won't give too much, just to let the neighbors have a taste. If the taste is good, many people will come to buy them after the shop opens. It can at least increase its popularity."
What Liu Zhigang concealed was that the steward sent by Mrs. Huang in the morning kept his eyes on Zhong Xin while speaking, and even mentioned her by name twice.
Zhong Xin made a scene last night and said so many things about Xu Dongjia and Xu Xinting.
Usually she is the one who loves to take advantage. Xu Dong's family is easy-going. The food they make themselves is not as delicious as that made by Dongjia and Xinting.
But the ingredients used are all real, and the prices are not cheap.
The employers would let them take some home to let their families try in order to avoid waste.
Everyone would also pack some, and they were not greedy.
But Zhong Xin was not happy, because she took the most among everyone.
He eats other people's food, doesn't work hard, and talks bad about others behind their backs, just feeling jealous.
Zhong Xin thought that her boss didn't know about it. As a result, early the next morning, Mrs. Huang sent someone to lecture her.
Having said that, the news spread very quickly, and these people didn't know who Mrs. Huang's spy was.
It is also possible that he was just angry about what Zhong Xin said and went to tell on her.
But it’s better this way, I feel much better.
Xu Qingmeng didn’t know what had happened yet, but even if Mrs. Huang didn’t say it, she was planning to tell her about it.
But in case any problems arise, Xu Qingmeng instructed him to watch the door to prevent any problems from occurring.
The best thing is to have everyone line up, remember their appearance, give each person one, and don't let them receive the same thing repeatedly. Try to make sure that everyone who comes gets one.
Of course, remember not to have any verbal conflicts with others, otherwise the gain will outweigh the loss.
Liu Zhigang agreed and hurried forward to help.
Gu Yunyi had been silent the whole time. Seeing that she had taken care of everything, he smiled and said, "The people that Madam Huang gave you are quite good."
There were many people in the shop, so she didn't have to do much. According to her, the teaching was only temporary.
I have almost mastered the production method, and I just need some guidance on the taste. After a while, I will be able to let go.
By then, you will have a group of people to serve you, which will be much easier than working in a restaurant.
In the restaurant, Xinting is basically fine, and Mrs. Tang is also a good cook. When the time comes, she can be cooked quickly if you take her with you.
This also made him feel a little relieved.
Xu Qingmeng is different now than before, and we can’t let her worry like this anymore.
However, thinking that there would be many trivial matters when opening the business, Gu Yunyi said, "The college entrance examination is still more than two months away. I have already taken two exams. You should take it easy recently. If there are any trivial matters, just let me know. You don't have to rush around everywhere."
Xu Qingmeng was helpless: "I don't have any reaction now, don't make a fuss."
So there is no need to treat her like a baby.
"It's not appropriate. Didn't you hear what the doctor said? You can't be too tired now. You need to rest well. It's not even three months yet!" Gu Yunyi retorted without thinking.
Xu Qingmeng retorted: "...wasn't there anything wrong in the first two months?"
"That's because I don't know. Why would I let you do that if I knew?"
Xu Qingmeng knew she was in the wrong, and she looked uncomfortable. She glared at him and said unhappily, "I told you earlier, do you want me to give birth?"
Having said that, he turned and went to the kitchen.
Gu Yunyi was stunned, shook his head and muttered: "You didn't tell me, how do you know..."
"The boss is here, can you help me take a look at this and see how it's done? I've already cooked several pots this morning, and now it tastes about 70% similar to what you cook."
When someone saw Xu Qingmeng coming, they quickly handed her the finished product.
Xu Qingmeng picked up a piece, tasted it, nodded, and gave a few more suggestions. After receiving the apprentice's sudden enlightenment, he quickly went to try another pot.
Zhong Xin watched this scene anxiously, feeling very nervous.
In the morning, the steward of the Huang Mansion came and scolded her. She was not a fool and could naturally understand the meaning of the words. Mrs. Huang must know what she said last night, but she didn't know whether Mr. Xu knew it.
She, who usually talked the most, was hesitating at this moment and didn't dare to move forward.
After a lot of effort, she made up her mind and wanted to walk over, but she saw a handsome man in a long gown walking into the kitchen. She stared at the tall figure and was stunned for a moment.
"This sandwich is fried. There is too much oil in it. You should eat less." Seeing Xu Qingmeng eating a sandwich, Gu Yunyi quickly reminded her.
The doctor had instructed him to take nourishing food, and now he should eat light and warming food, and try not to eat too much oily or greasy food. He kept this in mind.
Xu Qingmeng shook her head. "It's not too oily, not greasy, and quite delicious. You can try it."
After saying that, she naturally stuffed a piece of sundae into his mouth.
He had eaten Sanzi before, but it was at the provincial festival, and Mengniang made it for him. It was the first time he had eaten it.
It can satisfy your hunger and can also be eaten with soaking water. Talking about the food in the provincial examination, it makes others envious.
