Back to 1996

"You really dare to think about it!" Xiao Zijun said bitterly: "You can try it! You think I will take care of you, and when you become an adult, I will be liberated, and then I won't bother to take care of you!"

"Of course, you can't break the law, otherwise don't blame me for not giving you face!" Xiao Zijun added.

Shen Zexiu: ...I always knew that Ms. Xiao was free and easy, but I didn't know that she was so free and easy!

"You're dishonest!" Shen Zexiu said with an old-fashioned look, shaking his head.

"Since I can grow freely, why can't uncle? What crime did he commit?" Shen Zexiu raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Zijun: ...

"This matter is not up to me, the key lies in your grandparents!"

"Then your attitude was not clear from the beginning. What I have seen is that you disagree and stand on the opposite side of uncle!"

This sentence made Xiao Zijun fall into deep thought, recalling her attitude, she seemed to have this meaning, she glanced at her son and said, "Got it, it's towards your uncle!"

The Shen family, Shen Moyan, and Xiao Zijun arranged business trips one after another. Shen Zexiu became interested in the summer camp after returning from the Xiao family, and after negotiating with Gu Yi, he planned to participate together!

In fact, Gu Yi's summer vacation is very full, not only to study new recipes, promote the development of Hutong restaurants, but also pay close attention to reading the remaining high school textbooks, but Shen Zexiu's insistence made him helpless, let him go alone, on his own There is nothing to do this holiday, just worry about it!

In desperation, he had no choice but to accept such an arrangement.

It was such a coincidence that recently there were many opponents on the opposite side of the alley restaurant. Gu Yi took advantage of the fact that there was still a week before departure, and he spent nearly eight hours a day in it.

Mr. Shen found that he was just sitting in the room reading a book at home, and he didn't have any entertainment, so he didn't stop his behavior.

Therefore, the guests who came to the Hutong restaurant that day could see a familiar scene. Mr. Shen was leisurely lying in a rocking chair drinking afternoon tea. The window of the back kitchen was open, and the young man inside was waving his thin but powerful arms to flip through the ingredients.

Some of the old customers were not surprised when they saw this scene, and said with a smile: "Mr. , I’ll have to send some over to try later!”

The old man nodded: "It's easy to say!"

Some unexplained customers saw this scene as a novelty, but they heard that the young man was an apprentice, so they imagined a blockbuster about the difficulty of life!

And those people who were sent to find out among the diners watched quietly, and finally took down the clues silently.

In the middle of the afternoon, the stewed beef that Gu Yi recently researched was out of the pot!At this time, the smell in the restaurant had already permeated, and the guests in the lobby began to get restless, and they all looked at the back kitchen.

Mr. Shen also moved from the yard to the kitchen, passing through the hall and received entrustments from several old friends.

In the kitchen, Master Yang and Yuan Yuan couldn’t wait to move their chopsticks after Gu nodded. The taste of stewed beef is different from that of braised beef. Long, this taste and taste, can't stop.

Gu Yi brought the prepared bowl to Shen Zexiu in the backyard. When they came back, the two of them had already eaten several yuan. At this time, Mr. Shen walked in. Before asking, the two kept nodding their heads. , he also understood.

"How much more, I'm waiting outside!" Mr. Shen asked helplessly, he was assured of his apprentice's craftsmanship.

"It's a bit more marinated this time, and there's still a lot left. You can slice it up and give it to each table, or you can see the opinions of the guests!" Gu Yi pointed to the big iron pot in front of him.

This kind of task naturally let Yuan Yuan take over.

The response to this wave of stewed beef was not very good. Many customers were not satisfied with the food and asked to order on the spot, but they were told that it was only a new product and the menu would not be available until next week, and they regretted it.

At this time, under Gu Yi's suggestion, Mr. Shen also proposed that there is a limited amount of stewed beef every day, [-] servings for lunch and [-] servings for dinner, and they will not be sold during the rest of the time. Everyone is gearing up and waiting for tomorrow!

After the goal was achieved, the grandparents and grandchildren returned to the courtyard.

Xiao Zijun recently helped Mr. Shen order a few more sets of clothes at the tailor shop at the intersection of the street. The stipulated time had come, and he happened to drop in to pick them up. He had just come out of the tailor shop when a person walked towards him.

Gu Yi just glanced at the other party inadvertently, but the next moment he walked into a restaurant not far away. Gu Yi knew about the restaurant. He heard that it had just been bought by a big boss. Not long ago, the renovation was done vigorously , It has aroused everyone's curiosity before it opened.

If he remembers correctly, that person was the guest at table seven just now. He did not expect him to live here. In fact, he has encountered this kind of opponent's bottoming out. It should be an open secret in the catering industry, but in the end It still caught his attention.

The main reason is that he always felt that he had seen the other person's face somewhere before, and he felt familiar and uncomfortable at first glance, but he just couldn't remember it.

"Master, you go back first, Shen Zexiu and I went to the canteen in front, and suddenly wanted a drink!" He gave Shen Zexiu a hand.

Shen Zexiu looked at him with puzzlement in his eyes!

Mr. Shen didn't think much about it, he absolutely agreed with Gu Yi's rare desire: "Go, buy whatever you want to eat, do you have any money with you?"

"Bring it!" Gu Yi pulled Shen Zexiu and was about to leave. Normally, he would never pull other people along, but it is too difficult to deceive Shen Zexiu. This is what he has told him from the experience of getting along day and night in the past few years.

Inexplicably, Shen Zexiu was dragged by Gu Yi for a stroll on the West Street, and was stuffed with a bottle of Coke in his hand. When he passed by the newly renovated restaurant for the third time, he finally found out that something was wrong with Gu Yi.

The setting sun had already set, the sky was getting darker, finally someone came out from the restaurant, the two of them were discussing something while walking, the faces of the two people in the dark hall gradually became clear, one of them was that person just now, and The other one... that face looked at Gu Yi's blood was boiling all over his body, but his brain was throbbing and hurting as if he lacked oxygen.

Sensing his discomfort, Shen Zexiu quickly stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

He didn't hear the answer for a long time, and followed his gaze. His excellent memory made him immediately recognize that the man on the left was the customer of the Hutong restaurant just now, while the other one was a complete stranger, dressed as a middle-aged man. , well-dressed, slightly formal attire, which is a bit out of tune with the image of a restaurant.

At this time, the strange man also found the two teenagers standing at the door of his house. He frowned, and the expression on his face was not kind. He was about to speak, when the man next to him listened to him and explained a few words, and then his expression Returning to normal, he looked at Gu Yi with probing eyes.
