The story of a cook

Chapter 274 Met a friend who runs a restaurant

The eldest sister called me and told me that the [-]th day of the lunar calendar is good and it is the day of marriage.

Forget it, October 11th of the lunar calendar, November 24th of the Gregorian calendar, there is still half a month to go, it seems that the time is tight and the task is heavy, so we must hurry up.

I set a date for taking wedding photos with Lin Yan, she and the boss set a date for taking leave of absence to get married, and I set a date for my family to go home.Then I asked Lin Yan who was in her family when she got married. Lin Yan said that her mother couldn't make it through, and her younger brother couldn't make it through school, so only her elder brother Zhihao could go.

"My mother said that we are getting married, but she is not at home to make arrangements. There are still pigs at home and I can't leave. Ask Zhihao to come over when the time comes. Even if it is to see off relatives, she will represent her mother's family." Lin Yan said.

I said: "That's okay, but there are a little few people who send relatives off."

Lin Yan said: "I have a classmate who will also go."

I said, "OK, it happens to be a man and a woman."

Lin Yan asked: "We need to buy some clothes when we get married."

I said, "Buy it, I have to dress you up nicely."

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Let's go northbound to buy it. It's cheap. We wear red clothes when we get married, and we don't usually wear them. Just buy something similar. It doesn't need to be too expensive."

I said: "That can't be too bad, the quality is better, and it can be worn normally."

Lin Yan said: "Let's talk about it when the time comes. Let's see what it looks like. If the style is good, I will buy it."

I said, "Okay, listen to you."

Lin Yan is very reluctant to spend money. Buying clothes for herself is always cheap, and rarely buys hundreds of dollars. In addition, she doesn't wear makeup, and she doesn't like beauty. Her cosmetics are a bottle of cream.No lipstick, eye shadow, body lotion, etc., all without makeup.Even the bicycle I ride to work is forced to change by me, otherwise I still ride her Xiaokun bike, which can no longer be ridden.

When we got married, we had more than 2000 yuan in our hands. Lin Yan said that it was enough, and we could get married with the 2000 yuan.

When I heard her say that there was only 2000 yuan, I felt a little angry. I felt that my family had to have 5000 yuan, but who knew it was [-] yuan. This was my last month's salary in Heyuxuan.

It is estimated that all the money in the family was taken home by Lin Yan.

Fortunately, Boss Cao gave me an extra 2000 yuan in the red envelope, otherwise the money was really not enough.

Thinking about how tight life was at that time, getting married for more than 2000 yuan, no one would believe it now, but getting married for more than 2000 yuan at that time was also very good.

I don't have any complaints about Lin Yan, she has worked hard enough, and it is difficult for her to be able to live with me ups and downs for several years without complaining.

After taking the wedding photos, Lin Yan still has to go to work. I have nothing to do at home to clean up the house, wash clothes and cook, and be a qualified housewife.

The second child and National Day are here.

National Day is now working at his uncle's, and there is no work at home in winter. After contacting the second child, he knew that I was laid off and was at home, so he and the second child came to see me.

"Staying so honest at home, why didn't you go out to find a job?" Guo Qing asked.

I said, "Don't look for a job now, go home and get married."

National Day was a little surprised and asked, "Married? Why, you plan to get married."

I nodded and said to him: "Yes, it's not just time, go home and get married."

"That's fine. Marriage is a good thing. You and my third sister-in-law have been together for several years. It's time to get married."

I said, "Yes, it's time to get married. Sooner or later, I will be thirty in two years. If my children are all grown up at home."

Guoqing said: "That's not true. We get married early in the countryside. Generally, we get married on the 21st or [-]nd. Children in their [-]s should go to elementary school. We are all late."

The second child asked, "Third child, are you going to go back to your hometown to get married?"

I said: "Yes, it's not a big deal to go back to my hometown, but the people in my own house are lively and lively."

The second child asked: "After finishing it in my hometown, I will go back to the provincial capital to do it?"

I said, "Look, I'll do it when I have time."

Guoqing said: "You have to do it when you come back from your hometown. Friends and brothers in the provincial capital can't go to your hometown with you, so you have to do it in the provincial capital. Everyone gets together to have fun. Marriage is a big event. You can't do it. When the time comes come."

The second child said: "Third child, you have met many friends over the years, and you know that you have to come over when you get married, so you have to do it when you come back."

I said, "Let's do it, it's lively and lively."

Guoqing said: "Anyway, I'm fine now, and I'm idle at home. You go back and marry my third sister-in-law. I will prepare it for you at home. When the time comes, the hotel will be booked for you. I will also clean up your house. You can do whatever you want." It looks like a new house, leave these to me, and I promise to make you stand at attention, and when you come back, we will go to the hotel to have a good time."

I said, "Then I will trouble you."

Guo Qing said: "Brother, at this time, the brother has to rush to the front, knowing that he is not the third child, otherwise why would he be called a brother."

National Day has always been a warm heart, I am very moved by what I said.

The second child asked: "The third child, how far is your home from the provincial capital?"

I said, "Six hundred miles."

The second child said: "When the time comes, I will go to your house and see what you are like."

I said, "Okay, I hope you will go."

Guo Qing said: "Second child, don't just drink when you go, the third child will not need to find a chef, you cook."

The second child said: "Otherwise, what would I do? I would just cook."

"Second brother, you are doing a personnel job, which is enough for a buddy." Guo Qing gave the second child a thumbs up.

"Fuck off, when did I become uninterested." The second child scolded National Day with a smile.

I asked my second child, "Second Brother, have you been to Xiao Wan's house?"

"I went, I just came back from her house." The second child said, the expression on his face should be fine.

"How is it? What did her family say?" I asked, always concerned about him and Xiao Wan.

The second child said: "It's pretty good, I didn't say anything, his parents are very nice, and he's easy to talk to. He's a good-for-nothing person."

I said: "That's good, didn't you say when you will get married?"

The second child said: "It's the Chinese New Year, I just met this year, and I got married earlier."

Indeed, the second child is Xiaowan whom I met at Heyuxuan with me. It has only been half a year, which is a bit short, just in time to get married during the Chinese New Year.

Guo Qing said, "Second child, I heard that your girlfriend's father is the village chief?"

The second child said: "Well, it's the village head. What's the use of a village head? If I'm the village head at her house, I won't go to her house."

Guo Qing said: "Why don't you go to her house? My father-in-law is the village head, isn't he rich? I won't give you more when you get married."

The second child said: "I still have a kid, and if you have money, you have to keep it for the kid."

Guoqing said: "What's wrong with you, brother-in-law, you can't fix my brother-in-law." Guoqing began to give the second brother a bad idea: "Your brother, tell your brother-in-law to give all the money to your sister, and beat your sister if you don't give it to her." Your sister, clean up your sister every day."

The second child said to the National Day: "Fuck you, it's fine if his sister doesn't join me, and I dare to beat him."

It was noon when we were talking, and the National Day said that we wanted to eat hot pot, so the three of us went to a hot pot restaurant to eat hot pot.Coincidentally, I ran into Santaizi Zhang at the hot pot restaurant. She and a woman were also cooking hot pot. When they saw us coming in, they asked us to eat with them, and they sat together if they had no choice.

The woman who is with Sister Zhang is about 40 years old, her surname is Wu, she is prettier than Sister Zhang, very charming, giving people a very delicate feeling.It's not as wild as Sister Zhang, and it's a little quieter.

Sister Zhang introduced that Sister Wu runs a mid-range restaurant in Tiexi, and the business is still very good.

Sister Zhang asked me: "Xiao Tanzi, if you quit this job, where are you going to go?"

I said, "I'm going to go home and get married, and I'll find a job after I get married."

Sister Zhang asked: "When will you get married? You must tell me when you come back to do it."

I said, "Well, I promise to tell you."

After the question, my sister Zhang asked the second child: "Second child, Tan Zi is married, when will you get married?"

"Chinese New Year, wait for Chinese New Year to get married." The second child said.

"Hold on tight, you're just fooling around, the first wife is so good, and she looks pretty, so don't say anything." Sister Zhang asked, "How is this one now? Where is it?"

The second child said: "The current one is very good, and it is in the same area as the third child."

Sister Zhang said: "It's fine as long as it's fine. This time, live a good life with others, don't act foolishly."

The second child said: "I didn't mess around with the first one, but we can't get along together, there's nothing we can do."

National Day and the second child joked: "Why can't we go together, the second child, you just want to pick up little girls. You haven't missed little girls in the past two years."

"Get out, you're only dating girls." The second child scolded with a ruthless smile.

After drinking for a while, Sister Zhang's friend Sister Wu asked, "Are you all working in restaurants? Are you all chefs?"

I said, "My second brother and I are chefs." Pointing to National Day, he said, "He is not. He used to do it, but now he does decoration."

Sister Wu said, "It's not easy to operate restaurants now, there are too many restaurants, unlike the first two years when there were few restaurants, and they can make money."

"Yes, there are too many restaurants now, no matter how big or small they are all over the place, it's not easy to make money." I said, "But if the management is good, the restaurants will still make money, and there will still be many popular ones, and they will all make money."

Sister Zhang said to Sister Wu: "By the way, don't you run a restaurant? Let me tell you that Xiao Tan is a good person, and the dishes are also good. If you don't go to your stir-fry, if you use him to cook, you will save yourself Don't worry, you don't need to worry about anything, I will straighten you to attention."

Sister Wu looked at me and said, "My hotel is about to be relocated, that's what happened a few years ago."

"Yes, you're going to be relocated. I told me that I forgot." Sister Zhang said, "If you open a restaurant again, you can find Xiao Tanzi, and I promise you that the restaurant will stand at attention."

Sister Wu asked me, "Where have you been?"

I said: "I didn't do a few, I just came down from Heyuxuan."

Sister Wu's eyes lit up, and she asked, "You just came down from Heyuxuan? Is that the one on Yalujiang Street?"

"Yes, that's the one."

Sister Wu said: "His house is very popular. I even took my chef to eat at his house and imitated that fish head."

"Really, when did you go there?" I asked, and I was very proud to hear that she led the chef to eat.

"I went in July, and I went again in August. I didn't know you back then. I wish I knew you." Sister Wu said with a little regret.

I laughed and said, "Yes, we didn't know each other at that time."

Sister Wu said: "The fish head is very good. I took my chef to learn it twice, but I didn't learn it. It didn't taste like that. I started to prepare it. Then I didn't see it, so I didn't do it."

The second child said, "The fish head was made by the third child."

Sister Wu asked, "Are you the head chef?"

I said: "Yes."

Sister Wu asked, "The business is so good, why don't you do it?"

I said: "The boss is going to change the taste and find a new group of chefs."

"That's nonsense. If you change the chef properly, the restaurant is afraid that it will always change the chef. If you change it, you will kill yourself." Sister Wu said.

"Not necessarily, there are also job changes." I said, although I said so, I still agreed with what Sister Wu said in my heart.

Sister Wu said: "Look at it, if I don't change you, why change the chef if the business is so good." Then asked: "Is it because you are given a low salary and you don't want to do it?"

I laughed and said, "No, how could it be."

"I don't know you, I wish I had known you earlier." Sister Wu said, "Give me your phone number in a moment. My restaurant has to be relocated this year. After the relocation, I have to work in the restaurant. When I work in the restaurant again, I will find you. Let me do it, let's cooperate."

"Okay, if my sister makes a fuss about the restaurant, I guarantee it will be in place."
