Reborn Little Chef

A few days after the Chinese New Year, Ye Ning came back from selling boxed lunches in the afternoon, and Gao Meng came to him.

Said that he opened a door on the wall facing the street at home, and planned to open a shop for decoration business.

There is still a place next to the door to open a small house, but it is very small, so I asked Ye Ning if he wanted to open a shop.

Ye Ning sells boxed lunches very hard, wind and rain come and go, and sometimes when the business is good, he will be squeezed out by others, so he has been working hard to save money to settle down and open a store.

Of course, opening a shop is not without crowding out, and you have to deal with various industrial, commercial, tax, urban management and health departments. The most annoying thing is that there will be hooligans making trouble. He has heard this from the master who was in the chef school before. The master's relatives opened the shop. .

The place Gao Meng mentioned is in their house, and no one dares to bully him.And there are several communities over there with a lot of people, so it would be nice to open a small restaurant.

But Ye Ning felt that he might not be able to pay the rent, because he had only been here for two months and did not earn much money.

Gao Meng waved his hand: "Anyway, it's my house, what kind of rent do you pay? You are Zhang Tan's friend and my friend. In the future, when I don't have time to eat, I'll just eat a couple of bites at your place. Don't worry, I won't be overwhelmed." your!"

Gao Meng laughed out loud.

Ye Ning also felt very warm in his heart, Gao Meng is really a nice person.But as long as he earns money, he will definitely pay Gao Meng rent.

The entire wall of Gao Meng's house faces the street. He opened a door and built a house in the back yard, which became the office of the decoration company. He still went out to do some work every day.According to Gao Meng himself, the business is very good, the profit is very high, but it is troublesome to run out all the time, and he hasn't had a few meals at home for several years.

Ye Ning separated a small room in the house he built, about a dozen square meters, not too big, it can be used as a small restaurant.

But this place is full of residents and poor people. It is not easy to open a restaurant, because they still like to eat at home, and no one will run out to eat every day.

So what to do?Ye Ning thought about it, and decided to open a steamed stuffed bun shop. A drawer of steamed buns costs a few dollars, and anyone can afford it, and it's okay to eat all at once.

Gao Meng is a local, an old resident, familiar with everything, he is in charge of decoration, so the decoration of this small shop is done by himself and Ye Ning, many decoration materials and paints are given to Ye Ning for free , and drove a small truck to accompany Ye Ning to the second-hand market to buy tables, chairs, pots, stoves, drawers and other kitchen utensils. In short, he helped a lot.

Zhao Anping also came to help when she was free, and now she is more affectionate with Ye Ning.

Ye Ning himself is thin, and he can't move many things, so Gao Meng can handle them all with one hand.Later, Gao Meng also helped to apply for the business license and other certificates, and it went smoothly.

Ye Ning thought in his heart, Gao Meng is really a good person, and he must repay him if he has the opportunity.

Spring is here, Doubaner spreads its wings and basks in the sun every day, and when there is a moon, it basks in the moonlight.

Ye Ning asked him what he was doing, and Doubaner said that he was practicing kung fu, and if he could recover, he would go back to Xianshan, bring some things back, and prepare to stay in the world for a long time.

Ye Ning was just joking, he could become a fairy by basking in the sun, so why doesn't he feel a little bit of basking in the sun every day?Farmers bask in the sun and work in the fields, and they have never heard of anyone becoming a fairy.

Anyway, this guy's food is indispensable, so he can do whatever he wants.

"Ye Ning Steamed Bun Shop" has been renovated, the first drawer of steamed buns came out, Ye Ning tasted it, it's average, not as bad as the ones sold in the market, but it can't be called outstanding, he hasn't practiced the amazing craftsmanship yet.

Ye Ning didn't hire anyone, and he did it by himself, because the labor cost is too expensive now, and the small shop makes a small profit, so he can't afford it, and the big deal is to do less.It sold 380 on the first day, and the neighbors who finally came to eat steamed stuffed buns said it was not bad, and Ye Ning felt very relieved.

This requires a lot of practice. The noodles of the buns need to be chewy, and the stuffing of the buns needs to be tender, juicy and delicious. Neither can be done in a day or two. He only learned it when he was in the chef school but never really made it.

Unexpectedly, the craftsmanship has not been lost after several years.

Zhao Anping saw that he didn't rest from morning to night every day, and felt very distressed. She came to help whenever she was free after get off work.

After working for about half a month, gradually the daily turnover can be fixed to about 600 yuan. Ye Ning felt that the rent could be paid, so he forced 1000 yuan to Gao Meng.

Gao Meng desperately stuffed the money back, blushing like dripping blood, almost annoyed, Ye Ning was surprised and couldn't compete with him, so he had to take the money back.

Zhao Anping came to the store every day to help, Ye Ning suddenly said: "Auntie, why don't you go to work in the supermarket, come to my place, I will give you 2000 yuan a month, okay?" He now earns two to three hundred yuan a day. , I could afford more money but I didn’t dare to say more, for fear that she would not accept it. If we could be together every day like this, we might have a closer relationship, and we would have the opportunity to tell her the truth in the future.

Zhao Anping liked this kid more and more, and she agreed immediately after hearing what he said.Originally, she only earned 2000 yuan in the supermarket.

In fact, being able to help this child would make her feel at ease even if she earns less than the supermarket.Anyway, she is desperate in this life, so she might as well do something that makes her happy.

So every morning, both mother and son go to work in the store together.

Although I was a little tired than in the supermarket, I was in a better mood.Zhao Anping has someone to relieve her boredom every day, and the neighbors who come and go often talk to her when they buy buns, which is very happy.

Ye Ning even has work in his eyes, and often does the work secretly by himself, trying to make her work as little as possible.

One afternoon in March, the weather was fine and it had warmed up recently. Zhao Anping came back from the steamed stuffed bun shop and wanted to do some laundry and tidy up the house.

At this time the door suddenly knocked.

Zhao Anping asked in the room, it turned out that it was Zhang Tan's grandmother, her own mother.Zhao Anping quickly opened the door.

Mrs. Zhao led a ten-year-old girl standing outside the door, with a big bag hanging from her arm.The girl was Zhao Zhenzhen, the youngest daughter of her elder brother Zhao Anmin's family.The old lady came here with her granddaughter in her arms.His elder brother also has three children. This Zhenzhen is the youngest, and the eldest is two years older than Zhenzhen. He is married and has children.

Zhao Anping quickly took the things over and asked: "Mom, why are you here at this time, and you still have Zhenzhen, no one is following you?" She stretched her head and looked out.

Mrs. Zhao's expression was not good, she came in and put down the big bag, changed her shoes, sat on the sofa and said, beckoning to the girl: "Chenzhen, come here."

Zhao Zhenzhen ran over and sat down with the old lady Zhao and said, "Grandma, I'm going to go shopping in the city tomorrow to buy some clothes. I'm going to work in a big hotel, so I can't dress too poorly."

Zhao Anping hurriedly asked her which restaurant she went to work and why she didn't go to school.

Zhao Zhenzhen said that she couldn't get into university even if she went to school, and she didn't get a job even if she did, just like my cousin, who went to university for half a day, and was still in the finance department of S University, didn't he become a chef?

Zhao Anping's face is not very good-looking.

Zhang Qin's grades were very good at the time, but because her family had no background, she was rejected from a bank job after being admitted. This has always been Zhao Anping's heart disease, and she hated herself for not being able to find a good job for her son.

But her son is very sensible, and he doesn't want to be ambitious at all. Later, he went to the culinary school to learn his craft and was admitted to that big restaurant.

Although the reputation is not very glamorous, at least the salary is good, and it is no problem to support the family. He has even been planning to open his own shop to earn money.

Such a sensible son passed away in such a violent way, Zhao Anping almost couldn't stand it, and now she often wakes up crying at night, how can she resist Zhao Zhenzhen's heart-pounding words?

She felt a pain in her heart, so she stopped what she was doing and went into the den to lean against the head of the bed to take a rest.

Mrs. Zhao followed up and said, "Anping, Zhenzhen's father asked someone to find her a job as a waiter in a hotel in the city. The salary is good. Although the accommodation is in charge, the accommodation fee is deducted. I want her to temporarily If you live here, you don’t have to deduct the money. If you don’t want to adopt a child, it’s good to let Zhenzhen be your company.” Mrs. Zhao felt that she was very reasonable.

Zhao Anping was a little unhappy, and wanted to let her in without her consent.She also thought about letting Ye Ning live in for a while.

Zhenzhen is careless and lazy. She doesn't like to study but also likes to eat, wear and dress up. The pocket money her second brother gave her is all for food and clothing. What can she do here except cause trouble?Besides, if something happens to her, can she, as an aunt, afford it?

What's more, the fact that the second brother tried to force the child to her last time made her feel cold towards the Zhao family, and she, as an old lady, also helped her son.

But in the current situation, it is impossible to drive them out directly. In fact, she really doesn't want to sever ties with her natal family. As long as they don't go too far, it's okay to suffer a little bit.So he agreed.

Mrs. Zhao stayed all night and then left. Zhao Zhenzhen went to the hotel to report and came back to sleep at night.

Zhao Anping also only asked Zhao Zhenzhen not to go out at night and come back early to avoid accidents.But she is such a big girl, it is difficult to listen to the adults, and sometimes she comes back very late.So Zhao Anping always had a string hanging in her heart, fearing that something might happen.

Something was on her mind, she was a little distracted at the steamed stuffed bun shop during the day, Ye Ning noticed it all at once, and immediately asked what was going on, if something happened at home, Zhao Anping said it was nothing, just a relative from her natal family came to live.

Ye Ning didn't say anything after hearing this, it's hard for him to say anything now.

But he was a little anxious and wanted to find a chance to tell his mother the truth.So I discussed with Doubaner.Doubaner was also worried that it would scare people, but Ye Ning insisted that he couldn't wait any longer.

Doubaner thought for a while and said, "Then you find a place where no one is around, and don't shout so that others will know."

After noon, when they sold the buns and returned home, the two of them went back together and walked to a place a little away from the crowd. Ye Ning said to Zhao Anping, "Auntie, I have something I want to tell you."

Zhao Anping smiled and asked: "What's the matter, you can tell. Is there anything else we mothers can't say?" She really regarded this child as her own.

Ye Ning hesitated, looked around, no one passed by here, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Auntie, do you believe that a person can come back to life after death?"

Zhao Anping's complexion suddenly changed: "What do you mean?"
