Year after year

"Xiao Xun, wrap up the fruit plate." Standing in the order room, Lin Yu said to Xiao Xun who was shooting flies at the side of the hall, "At 05:30 people will be here."

"Okay." Xiao searched for the right time and slapped the fly lying on the glass to death, and then swung his backhand, swiftly pushing the dead fly into the trash can next to him, "I'll come right after I wash my hands."

Lin Yu nodded, and said to Pang Hai, who was sitting on a small bench behind him, playing a certain sound, "Stop playing, go, kill that baotou fish in the fish tank, and get ready first."

Reluctantly, Pang Hai stood up, still muttering: "It's still early... No one is there, let me brush for a while—"

"Pang Hai," Lin Yu took Qian Guoxiang's washed green onions to the desk, and asked in a flat tone, "Is the skin itchy again?"

Pang Hai's back felt a chill, remembering the tragedy that happened to him on a cold night.He silently put away his mobile phone, got up, went to the bathroom with his hands and feet to get the fishing net, and walked towards the fish tank.

Looking at Pang Hai's stiff back, Lin Yu smiled and shook his head.Pang Hai, to put it bluntly, is a paper tiger. On the surface, he is stubborn and difficult to deal with, but in fact he admits cowardice at the slightest fright.

"Soft." Lin Yu's father, Lin Hua, once commented on Pang Hai.

In fact, Lin Hua was not happy that his son made such a friend. After all, it would be better for a family who cooks and eats to avoid getting involved with such a prodigal.But the business in the store was so busy, Lin Hua couldn't control all aspects of Lin Yu, and Pang Hai helped Lin Yu a lot when he was sick, so he didn't say anything more.

Lin Yu felt that his father was always worrying.He knows Pang Hai very well. The spoiled second generation ancestor is not as clever as the smart ones.The three elder sisters above, whose family is still in time for demolition, do have the capital to go out and wander.Lin Yu knew a truth since he was a child, there is no need to always envy what others have, it is better to think carefully about what to eat for dinner when you have this spare time.

Lin Yu finished chopping the green onion, and then chopped the garlic.Halfway through, there were two or three tables of guests scattered outside, and they ordered some home-cooked dishes, which were not particularly troublesome to cook.

"Ayu!" Lin Yu had just thickened the tofu and roasted pork in the pot, when he suddenly heard Jing Sui's voice behind him, "Is the business okay?"

"Du Jingsui brother's blessing, it's still passable." Lin Yu changed the pot containing tofu and roasted pork to another burner that was turned off, turned around and replied with a smile, "It's all ready, and I'll serve you soon... ..."

Lin Yu was stunned, he saw Ying Hengnian behind Jing Sui.

Broken, he thought.Last night was too chaotic, he only thought about Zheng Yuyan and forgot about Ying Hengnian.

Didn't even ask for a phone number.

Of course, Lin Yu, who has been in the shop for many years, immediately reacted. He took up the preface and said, "Mr. Help, like this, you and Brother Jingsui have this meal together, then I will invite you; next time you bring your friends to come alone, I will invite you again."

"Don't, don't, don't." Jing Sui hurriedly interrupted Lin Yu's plan to treat guests, and said, "Don't be like this, Ah Nian, you don't know, Ah Nian is a rich man now, you can eat whatever you want. You really have to thank me, today In the evening, the food will be more expensive, and the bill should be settled with a large sum of money, so we will slaughter him hard together."

"Hey Jingsui brother, what are you talking about..."

"That's it, otherwise I won't come next time. Now, let's go out first, Ah Nian, and Ah Yu still needs to do business..." Jing Sui pushed Ying Hengnian out of the back kitchen, and turned to Lin Yu and said , "You are busy with your work, don't come out, you still have food on the stove!"

"Brother Jingsui, wait a minute, ask Mr. Ying to leave me a call..."

"Leave it after eating." Jing Sui said, "Hurry up and cook!"

"Why didn't you talk just now?" Entering the private room, Jing Sui asked Ying Hengnian, "Do you think Lin Yu left without saying hello last night?"

"No." Ying Hengnian immediately denied it, but he couldn't tell why.Indeed, he and Lin Yujia only met three times today, and Lin Yu gave him a different feeling each time.

Especially today, Ying Hengnian felt that Lin Yu, who was surrounded by pots and pans and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, had a different kind of attraction, which made him unable to take his eyes off him.

Thinking of this, Ying Hengnian couldn't help laughing - Am I sick?

"How many tables can Kazuya make a day?" Ying Hengnian shook his head and asked, "Is the business good?"

"It's an old restaurant. Counting his father, this restaurant has been around for more than 20 years." Jing Sui replied casually, "I don't know how many tables there are, and there must be a lot of customers—why did you suddenly ask this?"

"Just curious." Ying Hengnian felt guilty for no reason, pretending to be calm and continued to ask, "What about his dad? He didn't see him when he entered the kitchen just now."

"It disappeared a few years ago." Jing Sui took a sip of tea and said, "It seems to be cancer."

"I see." Ying Hengnian nodded thoughtfully.

Jing Sui looked at Ying Hengnian waving his teacup in a daze, and suddenly figured out something.

"A Nian." Jing Sui put down his teacup, and said seriously to Heng Nian, "Lin Yu is an honest boy, you... think about it clearly."

"You think too much, sister-in-law."

Lin Yu always felt that this was a strange curse, but whenever an acquaintance came to the store, the business would be particularly good that day.Once Jing Sui and Ying Hengnian left, they entered several menus.Pang Hai, who was in charge of the side dishes, had already stepped out of the afterimage, and Qian Guoxiang, who was washing the dishes, also came in to play lotus.Lin Yu took care of the three stoves by himself, and couldn't help but feel lucky that he had prepared Bao Yi's dishes before.

At least Ying Hengnian's dishes won't be too late. Lin Yu fished out the fried river prawns and poured them into the eggplants. It must have been eight o'clock after cooking. I don't know if they were still there at that time.

"Stir-fried three shredded rice in two packs! Xiao Xun serves the dishes! Remember to tell the guests that the dishes are ready!"

By the time Lin Yu finished cooking and came out, it was already 45:[-] in the evening.Lin Yu wiped his sweat with a freshly washed towel, and walked out of the kitchen, ready to go to the inner room to change his soaked work clothes.

"Ayu!" Jing Sui, who was sitting in front of the bar chatting on WeChat, saw Lin Yu coming out, exited the interface and clicked on Alipay, and said, "Come on, I've settled the bill."

"Brother Jingsui, this is just—"

"Oh, don't be like this all the time." Jing Sui scanned the QR code standing on the bar counter, "Do you know that I have a burden for you to do this. If you are free, you understand, if you are always like this, I won't dare to come to you Eat here."

"Forget it." Lin Yu walked quickly into the bar, trying to hide Bao Yi's menu, "And Mr. Ying—"

"The next time he comes by himself, you can solve it yourself." Jing Sui quickly got the menu first, "He hasn't got the money yet, and he's not a rich man, so I'll pay for him. Don't worry, He will have money next time he comes, so if you kill him hard, don't be lenient."

Before Lin Yu caught up, he pressed the menu, and said to Jing Sui: "Brother, you really don't want to pay, it's not good to talk about it like this."

"Ayu, I will definitely not come next time like this." Jing Sui pretended to be angry, and took the opportunity to see the amount on the bill, "I still have something to do."

Knowing that Jing Sui had seen the figures on the bill, Lin Yu had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, okay, you can pay 100 yuan."

"How can 100 yuan be enough? Your fish will cost 400 yuan, right?" Jing Sui smiled and began to transfer the money, "400 yuan, [-] yuan, that's it!"

"No, four hundred is too ugly!" Lin Yu said quickly, "One hundred and fifty! Brother, I beg you, please pay quickly, because such a small amount of money is not worth it—"

"If you are such a mother-in-law, I will pay the full amount." Jing Sui pressed his fingerprints, "You can keep it if you tell me, I know what you want."

Within a few seconds, the familiar electronic female voice remembered: "Your Alipay has received 400 yuan."

"I'm leaving first. I still have to catch up. The people inside will trouble you to take care of it and help me to give you a driver or something." Jing Sui put away his phone and was in a good mood, "Ah Yu's business is booming."

"This won't work." Lin Yu found out 300 yuan from the bar drawer, and caught up with Jing Sui who was about to go out, "Brother, I guarantee that I will send it away. I really can't accept you paying so much."

"Ayu!"

Lin Yu stuffed the money into Jing Sui's pocket, and pushed Jing Sui into the car again: "Don't worry, you still have something to do, you can pay again next time, brother, go slowly! Driver, You hurry up and go."

With that said, Lin Yu closed the back door of the car.The door was locked, and the car started slowly, leaving Nanping Road.

Jing Sui in the car looked at Lin Yu who was getting smaller and smaller at the intersection, and smiled helplessly: "This child."

"Fasten your seat belt." The "driver master" Ying Heng'an spoke, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone, "Why is it taking so long?"

"I know you're in a hurry." Jing Sui finally remembered his previous promise to the busy man Ying Hengan, but he just didn't mention it, but jokingly said, "Then the driver should drive faster."

At 08:30 in the evening, Lin Yu saw off the last table of guests in the hall.

"Xiao Xun, you eat first." Lin Yu waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Xun does not need to stand up, "After eating, we will close the table. There are only one table left. You and Sister Wen Qian will leave after collecting table 5, and we will meet again tomorrow." continue."

Xiao Xun with bulging cheeks couldn't speak, so he nodded to show that he understood.Pang Hai left without eating tonight, it is said that he was going on a blind date.

"See netizens." Lin Yu picked up chopsticks, leeks and eggs, "Three or four times a month, it basically serves as a stop loss."

"Stop loss function?" Xiao Xun opened his eyes wide and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's just that he thinks the other party is too ugly, or the other party thinks he is too ugly." Wen Qian filled a bowl of soup, took a sip and explained, "The latter kind of thing happens a little more. After the contact is broken, he won't Send red envelopes to each other casually."

"Brother Pang Hai is so...generous?" Hearing this, Xiao Xun was a little incredulous. He never thought that Brother Pang Hai, who seemed to be buckled, would "sprinkle coins" on the Internet every day.

Lin Yu and Wen Qian shook their heads at the same time, expressing that they couldn't understand why such a shrewd person as Pang Hai believed in the "photo deception" on the Internet.

After the meal, Wen Qian and Xiao Xun put away the table and went home separately.It just so happened that Bao Yi left the venue as soon as she left.

In fact, Lin Yu doesn't need to take care of this bunch of young and old at all - they are all veterans of the night show, and the next show has already been scheduled.The prodigal sons first took turns to praise Lin Yu's cooking, and then said goodbye together at the door of the store, and then each took the pre-appointed driver in the dark and headed to the next destination.

Lin Yu stood at the door, watching the luxury cars drive away from the narrow Nanping Road.There seemed to be a voice in his heart gently asking him:

Are you envious?

Hurry up and close the booth.Lin Yu patted his face, moved his numb legs, and prepared to go back.

As a result, as soon as Lin Yu turned around, he was taken aback by Ying Hengnian who was sitting in the hall.

Ying Hengnian was looking at him.

"You haven't left yet?" Seeing Ying Hengnian's face, Lin Yu forgot what he was thinking just now in the blink of an eye, "Would you like me...to call a car for you?"
