Chapter 131 Chapter 131 Mr. Wen...
After hearing what Mr. Wen said, he really picked up a piece of roast suckling pork and dipped it in sugar.
This taste! Mr. Wen fell in love with it the moment he took one bite. The crispy pork skin and the sweet sugar blended together to create an amazing taste in his mouth. The oily aroma mixed with the sweet fragrance became more and more fragrant the more he chewed. This bite was simply the ultimate enjoyment.
When Mr. Wen saw Old Master Wen's expression, he said, "What? I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"Not bad." Old Master Wen stroked his beard and showed his first smile since coming here today.
However, the purpose of Old Master Wen's visit today was naturally not the roast suckling pig, but the candied pork elbow that he had tasted at home and could not forget. The father and son loved the pork elbow skin the most, so after eating a few pieces of suckling pig meat, they both reached out their chopsticks to the pork elbow skin covered with oily soup.
Master Wen said, "Dad, the doctor told you to eat less greasy food. Just give it to me."
Old Master Wen was displeased when he heard this and ruthlessly exposed the issue, "I remember the doctor also told you to eat less."
However, Master Wen did not feel the slightest bit of shame at being exposed. Instead, he became even more confident and said, "I'm young and need to replenish my body."
Mr. Wen refused to give in. "I'm old, so I need more supplements."
Master Wen was speechless. "Okay, then half for each of us?"
"good."
Then the two men cut the elbow skin in half and started eating it.
The pork elbow skin melts in the mouth, soft and sticky, and still warm. After taking a bite, both of them felt that they had no regrets in their lives.
The father and son ate so much that their mouths were drooling. In the end, there was some leftover food, so they asked someone to pack it up and take it home to continue eating.
Apart from the two of them, everyone else who came to the restaurant today was also very satisfied with their meal. The price was cheap, the taste was good, and there were also exciting and novel stories to listen to. In less than a day, the name of Su Ji Restaurant spread throughout the small Qinghe County. The number of people who came in the evening was twice as many as at noon. How great!
Among them were Lin Jing and others who were unable to come at noon. They had witnessed with their own eyes how the Su family members gradually moved from setting up stalls to opening food stores, and now they were watching the Su family open a restaurant. In addition to their special feelings, they also felt a sense of pride in watching the Su family's lives get better step by step.
This time when he came, he specially prepared gifts and congratulated Chen and Su Li.
Chen waved his hand and took them directly to the backyard, where they were treated as VIPs.
After sitting down, they were not idle. They chatted with each other and ordered a lot of dishes.
When the dishes arrived, they didn't say a word and just buried their heads in eating. They looked like they hadn't eaten for several days. Chen was frightened by their behavior. After asking, she found out that some of them were going to the provincial capital to take part in the provincial examination in August this year. Therefore, the teachers in the county school were very strict with them during this period. If they didn't write well in essays, policy papers or poems, they would be kept in class until they could do it well.
Lin Jing had become thinner due to hunger these days. Not to mention, he looked a lot more handsome, but the dark circles under his eyes made his face look more haggard. However, all these were swept away when he saw the food on the table. As expected, only delicious food can soothe the heart.
“Delicious, delicious…”
"Brother Liu, eat this..."
“You eat too…”
While the meal was in full swing here, Su Li and Chen were so tired that their heels ached, especially Su Li and Chef Qu. Their arms were about to smoke from swinging. There was nothing they could do, they were too busy. As soon as the waiter came to announce the names of the dishes, another waiter came next. Before one dish was finished, another one had to be cooked. It was really a test of one's brain, eyesight and arm strength.
Fortunately, after the hardships of the past few years, Su Li has enough food and clothing to keep up with nutrition, and is no longer as easily tired as before, so she has persevered from beginning to end.
Her appearance made Old Man Qu beside her look at her with admiration. You know, men and women are born with limited strength, which cannot be changed, but Su Li relied on her perseverance to persevere, which is really admirable. Not only that, Su Li's cooking skills are the most important thing that really impressed him. You know, he used to think that the other party could only cook some home-cooked meals, but when discussing the dishes of the restaurant these days, Old Man Qu discovered that Su Li's cooking skills were so good. No matter what dish she was talking about, she knew how to make it. She was really a hidden talent.
What is even more commendable is that the improvements made to these original dishes have given new vitality to the originally monotonous dishes, which is something that Old Man Qu can never compare to.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's true that the Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves ahead! It's a pity that he has been cooking for so many years, but he can't even compare to a little girl.
Su Lilu's move completely conquered Wen Liu and the others who had originally looked down on Su Lilu. You know, they had always thought that Su Li's cooking skills were definitely not as good as theirs, so they often pointed fingers at Su Li while she was cooking. They even felt that it was a waste of their talents to let them prepare the dishes, and they were a little dissatisfied. However, thinking about it now, all the things they had done in the past seemed like they were just showing off their skills in front of Guan Gong.
Several people winked at each other, pushing each other, their eyes full of admiration for Su Li's skillful cooking.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and cut the meat out!" Old Man Qu couldn't help but shout when he saw that several people were gathered there doing nothing.
Seeing this, Wen Liu quickly turned around and left. Seeing that Wen Liu had it, the others also left, leaving only Old Man Qu and Su Li behind.
Old Man Qu looked at Su Li's movements with appreciation in his eyes. At the same time, he asked Su Li to take a break before continuing and not to get too tired. However, Su Li only wiped the sweat from her forehead and face with a towel, but did not stop her hands.
Not to mention Su Li being tired, almost everyone was exhausted today, from the waiters, cashiers, cooks, serving dishes and washing dishes, no one was not tired. Later, Su Li even called people from the food store to help, and the situation was a little better, but she was still very busy.
But the benefits were also obvious: today's revenue, including the tips from the customers, was almost five times what the shop had made before. When Su Li calculated it, she was almost shocked by the number. She had actually made so much today! Su Li couldn't help but think, if she could make this much every day, wouldn't it be over a thousand taels a month? Of course, this was just Su Li's imagination. After all, the shop had just opened, there were a lot of people, and she didn't know what would happen in the future. Moreover, this calculation was not accurate, as it hadn't yet deducted the capital. Once the capital was deducted, that was the real profit.
While Su Li was thinking this, she was preparing a reward for everyone's hard work today, 300 coins per person.
On this side, no one expected that there would be some rewards on the first day of the restaurant's opening, before the end of the month when they would receive their wages. Everyone was a little confused when they received the 300 coins.
Especially Lin Da, the excitement and joy on his face could not be concealed.
