I survive by acting like a spoiled child [food]

Ruan Tang didn't expect his small shop to be so popular.

At the entrance of the small store, there are students who are willing to wait in line to wait for the space in the store to be vacant.

The last time the waiter took two desserts from the dessert cabinet before leaving get off work, but as soon as the smell wafted out, the desserts in the cabinet were quickly sold out—then a cabinet of desserts could not be left in the afternoon.

It's just that Ruan Tang finally felt tired.

In order to satisfy the appetite, Ruan Tang must cook very fast.

He tried to speed up the cooking speed by using oil, but the cooking speed still couldn't keep up with the customer's request.

When he returned home on the first day, his arms were completely numb after shaking the spoon all day.

He pouted and acted like a baby to Lu Yunxiao, but Lu Yunxiao helplessly rubbed Ruan Tang's arm all night.

It's just that Ruan Tang persevered with great difficulty, except for occasionally complaining to Lu Yunxiao about being tired.

He closes the stall at [-]:[-] p.m. every day, which is very difficult for many students to accept.

Especially when Ruan Tang came to the front desk one day to replenish the dessert cabinet, but was seen by several students, the students became more enthusiastic about Ruan Tang's shop.

"Boss Ruan, can you extend the evening for another hour, we really, really like your home cooking!"

"I don't eat, can I take a photo with Boss Ruan for 200 yuan?"

"Boss Ruan is really super obedient. If I order a few dishes, can I have a word with Boss Ruan?"

"Just take a look..."

When there are few students, the few lively students who come here always have great enthusiasm for Ruan Tang, the chef.

"Why are the students so lively..." Ruan Tang murmured a few words in a low voice, pouting.

He opened the shop at ten o'clock in the morning and closed at seven in the afternoon. In order to open the shop at noon, he didn't even have time to go home and cook for Lu Yunxiao.

As for Mr. Zhao, Ruan Tang has changed the cooking time to night.

The only thing that worries Ruan Tang is Lu Yunxiao.

——He knew that Lu Yunxiao could only cook simple dishes, but Ruan Tang always felt that Lu Yunxiao had helped him so much, how could he have the heart to keep him from eating good food for such a long time.

"It's okay, I can order takeaway, I won't be hungry." Lu Yunxiao didn't care about it at all.

Since Ruan Tang got busy, the time for the two of them to meet has been greatly reduced, but Lu Yunxiao feels that Ruan Tang has a little more confidence.

——Although Ruan Tang is tired of opening a shop, his income is not a lot.

The two stores together employed four employees, but after excluding the rent and costs, Ruan Tang's monthly surplus even exceeded [-].

And Ruan Tang's contacts also accumulated little by little.

Mr. Zhao liked Ruan Tang's food, and at first he tasted it by himself. Later, when he felt that Ruan Tang had a good personality, he deliberately asked some of his old friends to come to his house to taste Ruan Tang's cooking.

Those old people also liked Ruan Tang.

He looks small, hard-working, silent but polite, coupled with his miserable life experience, it is easy to get the old man's pity.

Those few have a good relationship with Mr. Zhao, and they have a lot of relationships and connections.

They like Ruan Tang, and Ruan Tang's career is stable.

——At least in a short period of time, if Uncle Ruan and Aunt Ruan wanted to trouble Ruan Tang again, they would probably have nothing to do with it.

And Mr. Zhao's birthday came not long after Ruan Tang opened the store.

Mr. Zhao's illness might not last another year, so everyone who attended the birthday party knew that this was Mr. Zhao's last birthday in his life.

Ruan Tang got along with Mr. Zhao for a while, and he heard about Mr. Zhao's illness from many people, and later felt that this old man was quite pitiful.

The cancer was extremely painful at the advanced stage, and Mr. Zhao looked extremely thin because of this.

But Mr. Zhao couldn't see any problems on his face. Even now, the old man who has experienced the war is unwilling to reveal the slightest weakness.

Ruan Tang prepared for a few days and finally decided on the menu for the day.

Mr. Zhao told Ruan Tang in advance the number of people present, and Ruan Tang also decided to cook some big dishes.

A few friends of Mr. Zhao arrived in his small yard early, and his children came early last night.

"Grandpa, is the chef a young man?"

Elder Zhao's little granddaughter asked in a low voice, propping her cheek.

Mr. Zhao likes the lively little granddaughter the most. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the little granddaughter's forehead hair, and then said with a smile on his face: "That little master Ruan is as old as you, but the cooking taste is really delicious."

"Is it better than the chef in Fengju Pavilion?"

"His cooking is worse than that of the chef of Fengju Pavilion. Besides, the chef's cooking has a process of precipitation, and many dishes require heavy oil and salt, so grandpa can't eat it...but I think he is so young. I will definitely be better than that chef in the future."

Although Zhao Lao likes Ruan Tang, he also knows that there are some things that cannot be boasted casually.

He also believed that Ruan Tang could become a famous chef in Yan City one day in the future.

The little granddaughter was a little disappointed.

Until she saw Ruan Tang's appearance.

Ruan Tang has a head of curly hair, soft cheeks like white bread, round and big eyes like cat pupils, a face that is much cuter than a star on TV.

The little granddaughter just wanted to scream.

Her eyes were fixed on Ruan Tang, and she almost wanted to step forward.

Ruan Tang tried his best to ignore the people in the room, he went directly into the kitchen, and started to pack things with the tools in the kitchen.

The discussion on Ruan Tang outside has never stopped. If Mr. Zhao said that Ruan Tang is more afraid of people, I am afraid that a few curious people would go into the kitchen to see Ruan Tang.

Just Mr. Zhao's youngest daughter excitedly discussed Ruan Tang's good looks with her cousin next to her.

"Better looking than the starlet I liked recently."

"Why do you only look at the face? Superficial..."

"You don't look at faces? You just don't look at boys' faces. I like cute and well-behaved boys who can cook."

"The cook must look at the cooking water..."

A smell made them stop talking.

The little granddaughter swallowed, her eyes fixed on the kitchen, and she swallowed for a long time before whispering, "This level is not low."

Ruan Tang's cooking skills are indeed not as good as those of chefs who have been immersed in it for decades, but he also has his own unique way of cooking.

People outside the door don't often go to the big restaurants in Yan City to eat. Ruan Tang's level is relatively high in Yan City. Just his ability to improve his cooking method by smelling and tasting is enough. It's a talented player.

There was tinkling in the kitchen, and after Mr. Zhao finished talking with a few old people, the first course was already served on the table.

In order to take care of the stomach of the elderly, cold dishes were not prepared for the birthday party.

A stewed oxtail with tomato, a thick tomato soup is poured on the stewed oxtail, take a bite, the tendon of the oxtail is very chewy, the crispy tendon is mixed with rich tomato gravy, the taste It doesn't look sour, but very appetizing.

"It's the first time I ate this dish today, but the taste is really amazing," Mr. Zhao said with emotion, shaking his head.

And the old friend next to him also had a good time.

Although they have eaten delicious food many times in their lives, there are too many things that the elderly are forbidden to eat, and there are very few things that they can eat now.

But this dish is surprisingly appetizing and delicious.

"Doing it for the first time? I'm so honored."

Several old people laughed and ate, and Mr. Zhao, the birthday star, ate happily.

And one dish is simply not enough.

Soon the meatballs with rich sauce and thick white stewed pigeon soup were served.

The short and crunchy dried radishes and green bamboo shoots in the pigeon soup are so fresh that you can almost bite off your tongue.Pigeon meat does not have any fishy smell at all, and the thick soup and salty fragrance seep into the pigeon meat. A whole stewed pigeon often has no taste inside, but Ruan Tang hollowed out the inside and stuffed it with other seasonings, and put it in the meat again. Draw a few lines on different positions of the pigeon, so that the whole pigeon is immersed in the rich and salty soup.

Several children ate very happily.

The follow-up dishes are even more appetizing.

The first few dishes are appetizers, and the middle ones are big dishes.

Ruan Tang doesn't know how to make pasta, and although Mr. Zhao is from the north, he can't eat badly digested pasta because of his illness. He is disappointed but understandable.

Everyone was very happy after eating a meal.

Ruan Tang almost never came out of the kitchen, until he finished cooking, he quietly poked his head out of the kitchen, carefully looking at the diners outside.

"Master Ruan cooks really good rice!"

The moment the little granddaughter saw Ruan Tang, her eyes lit up.

She beckoned for Ruan Tang to come over, but her parents patted her arms. The little granddaughter looked at her parents carefully with her mouth pursed in dissatisfaction, and she was a little aggrieved when she spoke again.

"Master Ruan, you look really good-looking."

Ruan Tang's cheeks turned red.

He looked helplessly at Zhao Xu who was sitting on the seat. After being stared at for a long time, Zhao Xu raised his head and looked at Ruan Tang suspiciously.

Everyone looked at Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu stood up hesitantly.

Everyone thought that Ruan Tang wanted to talk to Zhao Xu about some more private matters - after all, Zhao Xu, as a representative of Yanshi's business district, knew a lot of bigwigs who could help Ruan Tang's business.

If Zhao Xu could take care of Ruan Tang's business more, it would improve Ruan Tang's business a lot.

Everyone tacitly agreed, but Ruan Tang was not as expected.

After calling Zhao Xu to the room, he took a deep breath under Zhao Xu's serious gaze, and summoned up his courage to ask, "I haven't paid me the money for cooking a while ago, can we settle the bill together?"

"...Okay, I'm missing a few days..."

"Twelve days, plus today's birthday banquet."

Ruan Tang looked up at Zhao Xu, "It will be calculated according to the price you said before."

Zhao Xu nodded and reluctantly agreed. He took his mobile phone to transfer money to Ruan Tang, then turned around and opened the curtain to go out.

After all the dishes were served, Ruan Tang was ready to leave.

He put his schoolbag on his back, and quickly left the small courtyard in full view of everyone.

And the old people who had heard Mr. Zhao praise Ruan Tang all laughed.

"It's not like what you said... well-behaved child."

"What about it? I expect to come over and chat with you a few more words? That kid has a soft temper and is afraid of seeing people. You will know it in the future. "
