Cheng Shaoyuan pursed his lips, put the things away silently, and then thought about what dishes to cook next.
"Brother, what did you cook for lunch?"
Cheng Shaojie simply ignored him and didn't say a word.
Cheng Shaoyuan was furious and didn't want to ask any more questions. Except for the chicken mushrooms and wild crucian carp, he moved all the other things to the warehouse and refrigerator.
After putting the things away, he began to clean the crucian carp and chicken mushrooms.
He plans to make crucian carp and tofu soup and chicken and mushroom soup.
When lunch was ready, there were five dishes on the table: a boiled chicken, a stir-fried vegetable dish, a chicken and red mushroom soup, and the remaining two were soups cooked by Cheng Shaojie.
Chen Yunzhao carried Yaoyao downstairs, who had just woken up. Before he could even sit down, he heard Cheng Shaojie slap the table and yell at Cheng Shaoyuan, "Are you crazy? Why did you cook so much soup?"
Cheng Shaoyuan pursed his lips, suppressing his anger. "I asked you what you cooked, but you didn't tell me. Besides, the crucian carp and chicken mushrooms are fresh. If you don't cook them this time, they won't be fresh for the next meal."
"Are you blind? Can't you see what I cooked?"
"Cheng Shaojie, today is Dragon Boat Festival, I don't want to quarrel with you."
Cheng Shaoyuan said this coldly and hugged Yaoyao.
Yaoyao was not scared. Instead, she looked at everyone curiously, sometimes at Cheng Shaoyuan, sometimes at Cheng Shaojie.
Cheng Shaoyuan calmed down, thinking that further quarreling would only scare Yaoyao.
No matter what Cheng Shaojie said next, Cheng Shaoyuan remained silent and didn't want to pay any attention.
Cheng Shaoyuan's attitude made Cheng Shaojie lose interest in continuing the argument, so he simply shut up.
The meal was tasteless.
After dinner, Shen Yunzhao was about to wash the dishes, but Cheng Shaoyuan stopped her, "Don't go. Go back to the room and pack your things, we'll go back now."
"So soon?"
Shen Yunzhao was stunned. It was not even half past 12. Wasn't it too early to go back?
"What's the point of staying here?" Cheng Shaoyuan smiled bitterly, "Someone is deliberately picking a fight with me. I'm afraid Yaoyao will be scared if I stay any longer."
"What's wrong with your brother today? Why did he deliberately pick a fight with you?"
Shen Yunzhao also saw that Cheng Shaojie was clearly trying to anger Cheng Shaoyuan and find fault.
"Maybe it's for money!"
Cheng Shaoyuan sighed and told the story.
It turned out that there were recent rumors that their Liushu Village was going to be demolished.
Liushu Village is on the outskirts of the city, but it is actually quite some distance away from the city center, and it takes half an hour to drive there.
But recently, there have been rumors that Liushu Village is going to build a high-tech industrial zone and the entire village will be demolished.
The Cheng family’s homestead, farmland and private plots total 5 mu.
"Then why is your brother deliberately looking for trouble?" Shen Yunzhao was very confused.
"He called me yesterday and asked me to give him all the land. He offered me 50,000 yuan, but I didn't agree."
"Ah, he called you? How come I didn't know?"
"This kind of thing is not a good thing, I don't want to talk about it."
Shen Yunzhao glared at him. Cheng Shaoyuan was just like that, only reporting good news and not bad news.
"Don't worry, our Liushu Village will not be demolished. The high-tech industrial zone has been built somewhere else, not here."
Shen Yunzhao recalled what happened in his dream and said.
"Oh." Cheng Shaoyuan reacted calmly. He had already done research and knew that it was impossible for the high-tech industrial zone to be moved to Liushu Village.
As a government employee, he is quite sensitive in this regard.
Firstly, transportation to Liushu Village is inconvenient. There is no highway exit nearby, and it takes 20 minutes to drive to the nearest highway.
Secondly, although Liushu Village is large in area and has flat terrain, it has a very big disadvantage: it is low-lying and often flooded, and it has to fight floods almost every year.
After listening to Cheng Shaoyuan's analysis, Shen Yunzhao suddenly realized, "No wonder the High-tech Industrial Park was not built here, but somewhere else. If it weren't for these two shortcomings, our place would actually be quite suitable for building an industrial park."
Cheng Shaoyuan smiled and changed the subject, "Why don't we just go out for dinner tonight? It saves Mom from having to cook. It's too tiring for her to cook for a whole family by herself."
"Alright."
Shen Yunzhao planned to try the 8888 set meal offered by the Xingguang Restaurant. He had been working hard to make money recently, so it was time to enjoy himself.
She immediately called Zhou Xingyu, but the call took a long time to get through.
Just as she mentioned ordering the Dragon Boat Festival set menu, Zhou Xingyu smiled bitterly, "Yun Zhao, don't join in the fun. All four set menus are reserved today, and many people can't make a reservation. I'm dealing with this!"
Shen Yunzhao was quite surprised. "It's fully booked? Business is so good?"
"Haha, not only are the orders for the evening full, but the orders for the lunch are full too. Enough said, I have to get busy. Yun Zhao, will you be in the county tomorrow? I'll treat you to dinner at the Xingguang Restaurant."
"Forget it then. I have something to do tomorrow. Maybe next time!"
After hanging up the phone, the two discussed and decided to eat at home.
…
Huahui Restaurant.
Liang Zhenhua looked at the data coming from the front desk with a rather unhappy expression.
He followed Zhou Xingyu's example and launched four set meals. He thought Huahui would be packed at noon and in the evening, but reality slapped him in the face. Only 70% of the private rooms were booked, and the remaining 30% were still empty.
This number is even lower than last year.
He called Fatty Xu over and asked, "How's the Starlight Restaurant? Is it crowded?"
"Probably not many."
Fatty Xu thought for a moment and said, "The price is too high. No one is willing to spend so much money."
Liang Zhenhua nodded. The price of the set meals launched by Huahui this year was much higher than in previous years, resulting in a lot fewer customers.
"Okay, go get busy!"
Fatty Xu ran out immediately as if he had received grace.
He is a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds, but he runs faster than a rabbit.
I don't understand what Mr. Liang was thinking. There were a lot of things going on in the kitchen, but he actually called me over to say some meaningless things.
He is the head chef, he is so busy, how can he have time to chat!
After complaining, Fatty Xu flew back to the kitchen.
…
Starlight Restaurant.
Yang Lili looked at the restaurant's huge sign, took pictures of the restaurant's exterior with her mobile phone, and chatted with fans.
"Hey guys, I'm at the Xingguang Restaurant, the one that had over 10 kilograms of wild crucian carp on display. They've launched four Dragon Boat Festival set meals, and today I'm here to try them... Haha, I bought the cheapest 6666 set meal. I wonder how it tastes..."
After finishing the exterior shoot, Yang Lili went into the lobby and first took a picture of the spot where the crucian carp used to be. It was completely empty; even the fish tank had been moved away.
After introducing herself to her fans, she took the elevator to Box 58.
The waiter came over quickly, asked about the set meal she ordered, and then left quickly.
"Hey babies, I'm so excited! I wonder if the 6666 combo is delicious? Ahhhh, so excited and curious!"
