"Yes! Zai Zai is indeed a bit thirsty!"

Leo took the water that Wen Yu handed him, and drank it "gulp".

This water is the tea brewed in the teapot on the dining table. Old man Cai brewed the tea in advance for the diners to drink.

However, his small shop is empty, and there are not many customers on weekdays.Therefore, the tea made by old man Cai was basically drunk by himself.

Leo took the tea that Wen Yu handed him, and the bright sunlight shone on the teapot, making the ceramic teapot slightly hot.The tea in the teapot is also warm when you drink it, adding a bit of warmth that is incompatible with this small decaying shop.

The taste of warm tea is somewhat similar to the peach tea of ​​"good sour" pickled cabbage fish, but it is different.

"Good Sour" peach tea with pickled cabbage fish has only a pure, light and sweet taste of peaches.The old man Cai's tea not only has the fragrance of peaches, but also has an inexplicable thick taste.

Leo took another sip of the tea, and the tip of his tongue recognized the thickness, which came from the taste of barley.

The old man Cai makes peach barley tea, which strengthens the spleen and eliminates food, and the light sweetness of peaches is attractive.

Leo's tender pink tongue licked his lips, and the cat's eyes suddenly lit up.

A pungent aroma passed to the tip of his nose along the crack of the small door next to the dining table.

Leojean's nose twitched.

The spicy aroma was just right, not as pungent as Leo imagined.

When the spicy fresh fragrance became stronger, with a "creak", the small door opened again.

Old man Cai limped to the dining table with a steaming bowl of pickled fish.

"It's ready, let's eat."

Old man Cai put the sauerkraut fish on the dining table, turned around and dragged his lame leg, and when he was about to go back to the small door, for some reason, he hesitated for a moment.

Old man Cai leaned against the small door, stopped, and turned his head slightly.

"Wow! It's delicious!" The cub cried out in surprise, "It's the first time I've eaten such a delicious fish! It's even better than the yellow croaker wonton made by Aunt Zhao!"

The old man Cai chooses the common grass carp that is local to Shuilanxing.His skill in slicing fish is superb, and the thickness of each piece of fish is just right, and there is not a single bit of fishbone on the fish fillet.

The pickled fish fillets made by Mr. Cai are not like the "very sour" pickled fish. The outer layer of his fish fillets is not coated with powder, so the freshness of the fresh fish fillets can be displayed on the tip of the tongue.Miraculously, Mr. Cai's uncoated fish fillets also retain the same tender texture as the "good sour" pickled fish.

The sauerkraut that Mr. Cai puts in the sauerkraut fish is his own pickled sauerkraut. Compared with the sauerkraut produced by the "good sour" sauerkraut fish in an assembly line, Mr. Cai's sauerkraut is more sour and more flavorful.Old man Cai doesn't have mild, medium or heavy spicy options. He put a lot of chili in the pickled fish.

With the combination of sour and fragrant sauerkraut, when the sauerkraut fish fillet just entered the mouth, the spicy taste was covered by the sauerkraut.When the teeth are chewing carefully, the fresh, spicy and spicy flavor contained in the fish immediately sweeps through the mouth.

This pickled fish is sour and spicy.It is much more exciting than the spicy and sour taste of "good sour" pickled fish.

"Hiss—delicious! Ss—"

Leo's cat's eyes were stained with a thin powder, and he stuffed the sauerkraut from the sauerkraut fish into his mouth while breathing in the cool air.

The sour taste of sauerkraut slightly suppressed the spicy taste in Leo's mouth. He stretched out his fat claws, picked up the peach barley tea, and drank it down in one gulp.

The mellow sweetness of peach barley tea saved Leo's little tongue.Leo blinked his wet cat's eyes, and he swung the spoon again, scooping up the next fillet.

Yuyu is only slightly less spicy than Aunt Zhao's original red oil wonton!But the fish is so delicious!Zai Zai can't bear to stop... Zai Zai wants to eat up all the delicious fish!

The old man Cai, who was leaning against the door, heard the cubs' childish praises of pickled cabbage fish coming from behind him.

Old man Cai turned his head slightly and looked in the direction of the dining table.

He only takes one look to see if the compliment he's hearing is real or illusory.

However, at this glance, Old Man Cai couldn't move his eyes away.

The door of the small shop was half open, allowing enough warm sunlight to shine into the room, and sprinkled on the cub at the dining table, the cub's porcelain-like cheeks turned into a light broken gold.

"Ah!"

Leo put a piece into his mouth, his cat's eyes were bent into two crescent moons, and the dimples on his cheeks were looming.

He seemed to be softened by this mouthful of sauerkraut and fish, and the orange cat ears on his head slowly fell behind his head.

Sitting on a chair, the dangling short legs of the cub swing back and forth rhythmically.

Old man Cai can fully feel the happiness and joy that the cubs radiate from the inside out after eating pickled fish.Happiness and joy are pure, without the slightest distraction.

This is the best medal for a chef.

Old man Cai lowered his head slightly against the sun, and the shadow covered his expression.

Old Man Cai's hoarse voice sounded: "Is it really so delicious?"

"Super super super delicious! Zai Zai has never eaten such delicious fish! But..."

When Old Man Cai heard the word "but", his heart skipped a beat.

Old Man Cai: "But what?"

Leo Fat Claw patted his belly: "Grandpa's fish is so little. Zai Zai only ate for a while, and there is only a small half of the fish left..."

Old man Cai sneered: "I made too much for you. If you can't finish it, you have to waste it."

Leo stared at the cat's eyes: "Who said Zai Zai can't finish it!"

Zai Zai was actually questioned about Zai Zai's big stomach!What a shame!

Leo frowned, with a serious face: "Grandpa Cai, Zai Zai can eat five bowls of big wontons in one sitting at Aunt Zhao's wonton shop for afternoon tea. Say, it’s just the amount between the teeth!”

Leo also raised his fat paw and made a "five" to old man Cai.

Old man Cai knew Zhao Xiulan well, and he knew in his heart how much Zhao Xiulan had in a big bowl of wontons.

Old man Cai didn't believe it: "You can eat five bowls alone? How is it possible!"

"Because of a genetic problem, Zai Zai's appetite is slightly larger than that of ordinary cubs." Wen Yu, who was feeding Zai Zai, explained in time.

Old man Cai was dubious. He looked at Wen Yu and then at Leo.

Leo blinked the cat's eyes: "If Grandpa Cai doesn't believe it, Grandpa Cai can make another sauerkraut fish for Zai Zai, and see if Zai Zai can eat it!"

Enraged by Leo, old man Cai immediately said: "Okay, I'll make you another one right now. If you can eat up all the side dishes and fish for these two servings of sauerkraut fish, I'll give you a free order."

The old man Cai walked into the small door with a cane, and he muttered: "I don't believe it, how much appetite can a small cub have?"

Anyway, it was just a bowl of fish with pickled cabbage. The cub really couldn't eat it, but he could still eat it without wasting it.

Leo watched old man Cai disappear at the door, a little pride flashed in his cat eyes.

That's great!Zai Zai can eat a new sauerkraut fish again!

Wen Yu, who watched old man Cai Zai Zai routine all the time, looked at the closed door and smiled helplessly.

"Dad! You eat a piece of fish, too!" Leo Fat Claw scooped up a piece of sauerkraut fish and handed it to Wen Yu, "Zizai eats it all the time, Dad didn't eat a piece of it!"

Wen Yu lowered his head and bit off the pickled fish that Lio handed him.

Wen Yu had tasted the fish fillets of "very sour" pickled fish before, and when compared with the pickled fish made by old man Cai, the shortcomings of "very sour" pickled fish became obvious.

Mr. Cai's knife skills and his grasp of the temperature of the pickled fish are incomparable to the dishes made by "good sour" pickled fish like an assembly line.

Only then did Wen Yu understand why Leo liked to eat old man Cai's sauerkraut fish.

Great chefs are attracted to each other.Zhao Xiulan recommended it to them. Although it was an ordinary small shop, the taste was beyond Wen Yu's expectation.

But... old man Cai has such cooking skills, even if he is disabled, if old man Cai is willing to work as a chef in any restaurant, or start a pickled fish shop from scratch, he will not be in a situation where no one cares about his cooking.

Wen Yu only had one face-to-face meeting with old man Cai.Wen Yu only had a superficial understanding of old man Cai - old man Cai was quite defensive and not easy to talk to.Leo also hit his heart by mistake, so old man Cai was willing to cook pickled fish for them.

There seems to be something unspeakable about old man Cai, but now is not the best time for him to ask old man Cai about his unspeakable secret.

After Wen Yu took a few mouthfuls of the fish fillet that Leo fed him, he said, "Daddy is full. Give the rest to Zai Zai."

Only then did Leo take back the small spoon and pour the fish fillet into his small mouth.

Old man Cai's speed of making a bowl of pickled fish is neither fast nor slow.

When he came to the dining table with a new bowl of sauerkraut fish, old man Cai found that the bowl of sauerkraut fish he made before had been eaten up on the table except for the soup.

The amount of old man Cai's bowl of pickled fish can't be eaten by an ordinary cub.

He looked at Wen Yu: "Did you eat it?"

"Take a few bites." Wen Yu said, "Leo is right, the pickled fish you made tastes really good."

Old man Cai snorted, and didn't care about Wen Yu's compliments to him.

He knew that if it wasn't for the cub's father to help eat it, a small cub, no matter how big his appetite was, would not be able to finish the bowl of pickled fish he made.

After Old Man Cai put down the freshly cooked pickled fish, he moved a chair again and sat on the other side of the table.

"Eat it." Old Man Cai said, "I'll watch you eat this time."

He thought he had to keep an eye on the cub.

In case the cub ate too much in order to show off his strength, causing gastrointestinal discomfort, he would have to send him to the hospital, what a bother!

"Okay!" Leo said, "Zai Zai will eat up this bowl of pickled fish made by grandpa!"

Old man Cai held the cup in one hand, and he sipped his tea while watching Leo eat pickled fish.

Wen Yu helped Leo put the hot sauerkraut fish in the bowl into a small bowl to cool, while Leo held a bowl of sauerkraut fish that had already cooled down and put it into his mouth spoon by spoon.

The cub's cheeks are filled with pickled fish. From a distance, the cub's small face looks like a white and tender bun, which makes people want to reach out and pinch it.

"Ah woo! Aah woo! Ah— woo!"

The sauerkraut fish in Leo's bowl decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and old man Cai's hand holding the water glass became more and more trembling.

Wait, wait, is this really a cub's real appetite?Two whole bowls of sauerkraut fish were eaten up by cubs that were not as tall as his calves?

The old man Cai looked at Leo's protruding belly, his drooping eyelids showed a trace of worry: "If you continue to eat, won't your stomach be stretched?"

Leo wiped off the oily water next to the crystal lips: "Zai Zai has a big stomach, it won't be broken!"

"That's right! Grandpa, do you have any food here?"

Old Man Cai: "What do you want rice for?"

Leo pointed to the sauerkraut and fish soup: "The soup is spicy! But if you don't drink the soup, it's too wasteful! I want to eat the soup with rice!"

"If, if..." Leo blushed, "Grandpa can make another pickled fish for Zai Zai, that would be even better!"

Old man Cai looked at the big bowl with only soup left on the dining table, and swallowed hard.

He is deaf, right?After eating his two big bowls of pickled fish cubs, he still isn't full?

Until now, Old Man Cai believed that Leo was really edible.Because ordinary people eat a grain of rice after eating, it is very painful for them.

But the cub sitting in front of him always had the joy and happiness of eating delicious food on his small face.

Old man Cai was silent for a while, before he said, "I only bought two grass carp today. So I can't make pickled fish for you."

"Ah... good, good."

The flickering light in the kitten's eyes disappeared instantly, and the cat's ears drooped feebly.

His fat claws rubbed his little belly, as if to comfort him: "No, it's all right! Zai Zai's belly tasted like the sauerkraut fish made by Grandpa Cai, and he was very satisfied!"

"If you like the sauerkraut fish I cook, you can eat it next time." Old man Cai said, "I only receive ten guests a day, and the number of grass carp is limited. If it's late, you won't be able to eat it."

Leo's cat ears stood up, and the round cat's eyes were bright again: "Okay, okay! Next time, Zai Zai must come to Grandpa Cai's shop early to eat fish!"

Old man Cai watched the cub happily wagging the tip of its tail, and the corners of his drooping lips raised slightly unconsciously.

The happiness in the cub's heart infected Old Man Cai.

The cub smiled, as if a beam of warm sunlight had shone into the dilapidated shop, and the shop was full of warmth and vitality.

After Leo finished speaking, a trace of confusion flashed in the cat's eyes: "But, why does Grandpa only receive ten guests every day?"

Hearing Leo's question, old man Cai pursed the corners of his raised lips.

The old man Cai said in a calm tone: "Ten years ago, my family suffered an accident, and I accidentally signed a contract in exchange for 100 million star coins. I only found out afterwards that the content of the contract is that in the next 20 years, I cannot go to other places. As a restaurant chef, if I open my own restaurant, my restaurant can only serve ten guests a day."

"Ah? How did this happen!" Leo wrinkled his face, "Grandpa Cai, can this contract be terminated?"

"The other party is an entrepreneur now, and I have no money, no power, no power, and no connections. How can I get rid of it?" Old man Cai smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's only because I met people unkindly at the time and trusted the other party too much. ..."

If he hadn't been blind at that time and failed to recognize his beloved adopted son as a white-eyed wolf, he would not have been deceived by the other party, signed such an unfair contract, and even been deceived into taking the sauerkraut passed down from generation to generation by his ancestors Fish recipe.

Now, everything he encountered was just asking for trouble, and he accepted his fate.

Leo clenched his fists: "Zai Zai is rich! Zai Zai help Grandpa Cai solve this matter!"

Old man Cai laughed and said, "How much money do you have as a cub? Forget it, forget it, let these old things go."

After several years of hard work, old man Cai lost the slightest interest in "seeking justice".He is now an ordinary old man with no fighting spirit, and he can barely make ends meet by cooking the pickled fish that he is good at.

Old man Cai got up, put away the empty bowl on the table, and walked through the small door.

"After you've finished eating, go straight away. I, Lao Cai, will do what I say, and I'll treat you to this meal."

Old man Cai closed the small door.

Leo Fatpaw tangled together.

Grandpa Cai doesn't want to solve this matter, and Zai Zai can't force Grandpa Cai to solve it, what should Zai Zai do?Could it be that we can only let the bad guy run free and let Grandpa Cai suffer this unfair life?

The little milk cat in "The Adventures of Little Milk Cat" is a helpful little milk cat and the most admired object of Zai Zai.

Zai Zai also wants to help others like the little milk cat...

Leo looked at Wen Yu with cat eyes, and he pursed his mouth and said nothing.

"Eat? We should go."

Wen Yu stood up, and he held Leo's fat paw, but Leo was still sitting on the chair, watching Wen Yu without moving.

Wen Yu: "Don't you want to go?"

Leo shook his little head: "Zai Zai is leaving now."

He jumped off the chair and followed Wen Yu's side.

Old man Cai was standing behind the small door, leaning his back on the door, and the cub and his father could vaguely hear the conversation outside the door, old man Cai couldn't hear it clearly.

But not long after, footsteps sounded, and the father and son left the store.

The whirring sound of the wind passed through the crack of the door to Old Man Cai's ears. He lowered his head and laughed at himself.

He was right.

The cub was interested in his affairs because of the cub's 3-minute enthusiasm, and immediately put his story behind him.

Little Zai Zai, what can I do to help him?

Leo and Wen Yu walked out of "Old Man Cai Pickled Fish".

As the sun sets, the blue sky is filled with red, orange and purple clouds, and the magnificent sunset glow is reflected in the depths of the cub's clear black eyes.

"dad."

The cub gently pulled Wen Yu's big hand, and Wen Yu stopped.

"what happened?"

Leo's white teeth bit his lower lip lightly: "Zai Zai, Zai Zai wants to help Grandpa Cai. Dad...do you have any good ideas?"

-

Today, netizens who have paid more or less attention to Leo received similar pushes at the same time——

"Leo appeared 'so sour' pickled fish, and he ate eight dishes in one meal. Let's count down the 'so sour' pickled fish dishes that are worth trying..."

"Leo has the same style of 'so sour' pickled cabbage fish, don't you really want to try it?"

"You come to Shuilanxing to play, but you don't know what delicious food Shuilanxing has? The 'so sour' sauerkraut fish that can make Leo eat eight dishes in one go is worth a visit!"

For a while, the topic of "very sour" pickled fish caused a wave of heat on Starnet.

【I'm currently queuing up at the branch of "Good Sour" pickled fish on the planet next door to Shuilanxing.On weekdays, the line at the branch is up to an hour. I have been waiting for three hours now, and I still haven't entered. There are huge crowds of people at the door.I'm also not sure if I'll be able to get the "good sour" fish with pickled cabbage tonight! 】

"Mr. Zhang, we have already sent out the topic and content you requested."

"Mr. Zhang, the store is full of customers tonight, and it's difficult for the shop assistants to maintain order. I want to ask Mr. Zhang if he can transfer staff from other places?"

"Mr. Zhang, according to the estimation of traffic and public opinion, I suggest that we extend the store opening hours tonight..."

In the central area of ​​Shuilanxing, the main store of "Good Sour" Pickled Fish.

Zhang En answered the phone all afternoon in the office.

After Leo and Wen Yu left, Zhang En took the time to contact the major marketing accounts, and took advantage of the fact that "Leo came to eat 'so sour' sauerkraut fish today", and released a marketing soft article or advertisement of "so sour" sauerkraut fish, While minimizing the negative public opinion on the Internet about the "good sour" pickled fish, it also pushed the "good sour" pickled fish into the public's sight.

Now most people on the Internet are paying attention to how delicious the "hao sour" pickled fish dish that Leo has been to is delicious. The invited navy was drowned.

As a result, the customer flow of "Good Sour" pickled fish has reached a new historical climax, whether it is the main store of Shuilanxing or its branches on other planets.

Looking at the increasing passenger flow, Zhang En barely breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not completely relax.

Wen Yu and his son are like a timed bomb that can explode at any moment.

As long as Li Ao or Wen Yu happened in the live broadcast room, it would be enough to wipe out Zhang En's reputation that he spent all his money to save.

Zhang Enyuan wanted to exchange benefits after obtaining Wen Yu's contact information, so that the other party would not mention what happened to them at "Hao Suan" Pickled Fish in the live broadcast room today.

However, such an idea was quickly rejected by Zhang En.

Zhang En still vividly remembers the entanglement between the hotly searched "Xiulan Wonton Shop" and food blogger Su Shu.

With the super popularity on the Internet, the money Leo earned during the live broadcast is completely enough for the father and son to live well in Shuilanxing, so they will not be easily tempted.

Zhang En can only find another way and find a new way to solve it.

Zhang En, who started from scratch and opened a small pickled fish shop into a chain store, has a flexible mind.

After a while, Zhang En came up with a good way to solve this matter.

The author has something to say: Leo: Today is not full QAQ
