From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Luo Qing and Liu Fangyou made an appointment, and Feng Zhengming and others went to the law firm where Liu Fangyou was currently working.

Liu Fangyou was waiting for Feng Zhengming and the others downstairs.

I met Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing, and they brought their daughter with them.

The family of three all dressed up, as if they were dressing up to attend some important event.

Not only Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing were dressed very formally, but even the little girl Feng Nuanyu was dressed very beautifully.

"Brother Feng, Sister Luo, you are here."

Liu Fangyou took the initiative to step forward and looked down at Feng Nuanyou: "Oh, Xiaoyouyou is here too."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "It's been many years since we last met. I suddenly remembered that both you and our Youyou have the word 'You' in their names."

Liu Fangyou: "This is our fate."

Luo Qing smiled at the side: "If someone doesn't know, they would think there is some kind of relationship between you two."

This made Liu Fangyou's face change immediately: "Sister-in-law, we don't have it."

Luo Qing: "Oh, I was just kidding. We named our daughter You because we hope she can live a carefree and leisurely life."

Liu Fangyou smiled: "This is a beautiful blessing from parents to their daughter."

Feng Zhengming: "Did Grandpa Liu give you your name?"

Liu Fangyou: "Yes, it was my grandfather who gave it the name. My grandmother told me that when I was born, my grandfather smelled a faint fragrance of flowers wafting in from outside, and it lingered for a long time.

My grandfather gave me the name Fangyou, which means the lingering fragrance of flowers. "

Luo Qing couldn't help but praise: "It's so beautiful, I didn't expect your name, Fangyou, to be so beautiful."

Liu Fangyou felt a little embarrassed: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Luo Qing held Liu Fangyou's arm and said, "You don't have to call me sister-in-law. You can still call me Sister Luo. Let's talk about our own affairs and not discuss them with him."

Liu Fangyou smiled and agreed: "Okay Sister Luo, let's go up first."

Led by Liu Fangyou, Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing followed and took the elevator to the law firm where Liu Fangyou worked.

When they entered the law firm, the receptionist saw them but did not recognize Feng Zhengming.

So he just greeted Liu Fangyou: "Xiao Liu, are you receiving customers?"

Liu Fangyou smiled and responded: "Yes, he is my fellow villager."

The receptionist nodded and told Liu Fangyou about a reception room.

Liu Fangyou agreed and led Feng Zhengming and the others inside.

After Luo Qing walked into the law firm, she asked softly, "Is your receptionist quite arrogant?"

Liu Fangyou: "She seems to be the sister of a big lawyer, so she is more arrogant. It's not directed at me, but to everyone."

Luo Qing: "It seems that he didn't recognize you, Brother Feng. That's good."

Feng Zhengming was walking behind and heard it, so he gently reminded him, "Stop talking, or you'll attract other people's attention. Go into the living room first."

Luo Qing immediately stopped talking, and the family of three walked into the living room together.

To many people in the law firm, it seemed not surprising at all that a family of three brought a child.

Liu Fangyou poured water for Feng Zhengming and the others and prepared various things by herself, and it seemed that no one was helping her.

Feng Zhengming sat down after Liu Fangyou had been busy for a long time, and couldn't help but ask: "No one is helping you here? Do you want to go to another place?"

Liu Fangyou: "Brother Feng, that's not necessary. All big law firms are like this. I was mentally prepared before I came here. I can accumulate more experience here."

Feng Zhengming: "Actually, you don't have to work so hard. It won't be difficult for you to get into the court if you go back."

Liu Fangyou: "I'm still young, I want to go out and try my luck first, gain some experience, if I can't stay out there, I'll go back and take the court exam."

Feng Zhengming: "Not bad, it broadens my horizons."

Luo Qing took out the information she brought and handed it to Liu Fangyou.

"These are some of the current information about Zheng Luxing. Take a look first. There are 24 Zheng Luxing restaurants in the entire province of Qilu, four in Shanghai, and another high-end restaurant is about to open."

Liu Fangyou nodded, and then began to look through it carefully.

"Sister Luo, there is no problem with your business in Zheng Luxing. Most of the property rights are yours. Only some of the stores have been divided into shares for others. It is quite clear and definite."

Feng Zhengming: "I came to you this time because I hope you can help me make a shareholding contract. I want to reconfirm the shares of Zheng Luxing and divide them between my senior brother and my grandfather."

Liu Fangyou was a little puzzled: "Why did Brother Feng want to divide the shares?"

Feng Zhengming: "I haven't paid attention to this matter over the years. My senior brothers have helped me a lot, as well as Jiang Chengzhe and the earliest veterans who followed me.

Since we are going to set up a formal catering company, I should distribute the shares to everyone. I can’t let them work for me for nothing all these years.”

Luo Qing: "Yes, the brothers have worked very hard these years. Your brother Feng is out there, and the stores in Qilu rely on his brothers. In addition, the stores in Shanghai are also supported by the store managers of each store.

So we should give them shares, so that they can get dividends more easily, and the shares of Zheng Luxing will also become clear. "

Liu Fangyou looked at the information carefully again: "Brother Feng, is this the restaurant in the old house? Are you planning to hold shares independently?"

Feng Zhengming nodded: "That restaurant must be run by me independently, so it is not among these stores."

Liu Fangyou understood that Feng Zhengming wanted to give up the profits from other stores and give the dividends to his senior brother and the outstanding young chefs who followed him.

After all, his stores do make a lot of profit every year, and distributing some of the dividends can help retain the chefs.

As for the restaurant in the old villa in Shanghai, Feng Zhengming wants to run it independently and does not want to be constrained by others. He wants to run it according to his own ideas.

Liu Fangyou understood the situation clearly and gave some suggestions from a legal perspective.

She said that if Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing were willing to let her be their legal advisor, she could follow up and handle the subsequent matters on their behalf.

Luo Qing smiled: "We came here to find you as our legal advisor. We are relieved to leave the rest to you."

Liu Fangyou: "Then Sister Luo, we need to sign a commission contract."

Luo Qing looked at her husband, and Feng Zhengming nodded.

The next step is to go through a series of procedures.

After signing the agency contract with Feng Zhengming, Liu Fangyou sent them away.

The big lawyer in the law firm asked Liu Fangyou to go to his office to meet him.

Liu Fangyou did not hide anything and told him everything directly.

The barrister was a little surprised: "You actually know Feng Zhengming? He is the famous national culinary champion? I heard that he also bought an old house in Shanghai and is planning to open a restaurant?"

Liu Fangyou: "Yes, Mr. Feng's Old House Restaurant is ready to open, and he has entrusted me to be his legal advisor to help him handle some legal affairs of his restaurant company."

"I didn't realize that you, Liu Fangyou, have such powerful connections. It seems that your future growth ceiling is immeasurable."

Liu Fangyou smiled: "Thank you, I will never forget the training you gave me."

Feng Zhengming and Luo Qing went to Liu Fangyou Law Firm and asked her to be their legal advisor.

In the final analysis, it was to raise Liu Fangyou's status so that she would not be bullied in Shanghai.

In fact, it really worked. After the contract was signed, the news quickly spread within the law firm.

The way colleagues looked at Liu Fangyou suddenly changed.

In the past, when people looked at Liu Fangyou, they would more or less think of her as a country girl.

Now some colleagues even take the initiative to chat with her, invite her for coffee, and even ask her to go out with them after get off work.

Liu Fangyou was indeed a little surprised at the change in her colleagues' attitudes.

She really didn't expect that everyone's expressions would change so quickly.

When she returned home in the evening, Liu Fangyou called home and told her parents what had happened.

Father Liu Jiasheng was immediately moved: "I didn't expect Feng Zhuangyuan to be so righteous. After so many years, with his current status and position, and the money his stores make every year, what kind of lawyer can't he find?

He still remembers you and is willing to help you gain a foothold in Shanghai. Dad should go over and visit him."

Liu Fangyou: "Dad, why don't you and mom bring grandpa and grandma over here? Brother Feng mentioned grandpa today."

Liu Jiasheng smiled: "Okay, Dad will get ready, and we will go with your mom, grandpa and grandma."

My mother's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Have you found a boyfriend over there?"

Liu Fangyou was helpless: "Mom, can you please not mention this?"

The mother was even more helpless: "Look at you, you didn't have a boyfriend in college, and you still don't have one after graduation."

Liu Fangyou: "Mom, how long have I been here? How can I have such thoughts now?"

Liu Jiasheng also spoke up at this time: "You, don't always think about urging your daughter to find a boyfriend and get married. Our daughter is so outstanding, we should support her career."

The mother was somewhat worried: "I heard that many women with successful careers have a hard time finding a partner nowadays."

Liu Jiasheng: "You really are, can you please stop thinking about your daughter so much?"

In the end, Liu Fangyou's mother had no choice but to stop talking about finding a partner.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Fangyou lay in her rented room feeling a little emotional.

She didn't tell her parents that she already had someone she liked.

This person is not Feng Zhengming, but Jiang Chengzhe.

Feng Zhengming was surprised to hear from his wife the speculation that Jiang Chengzhe and Liu Fangyou liked each other.

"No, really? How many times have they met each other?"

Luo Qing smiled and said, "This is called love at first sight. You may not know that when Liu Fangyou and Jiang Chengzhe met, they looked at each other. I think they were definitely interested in each other."

Feng Zhengming still felt strange: "How could I not notice anything like this?"

Luo Qing: "You have been busy with the restaurant opening recently. You probably don't know that Liu Fangyou goes to the store every weekend, right?"

Feng Zhengming was very surprised: "Really? Are they really that close?"

Luo Qing: "I asked Xia Hui, and Xia Hui said that she secretly observed that there must be something going on between the two of them."

Feng Zhengming: "You asked Xia Hui to observe? Can Xia Hui see clearly?"

Luo Qing reached out and patted her husband's arm: "What are you talking about? Xia Hui and Sun Hai have a good relationship, why can't she observe?"

Then Luo Qing presented a very strong piece of evidence.

"Let me tell you, Liu Fangyou always sits at a fixed position facing the edge of the bar in the back kitchen when she goes to the restaurant on weekends. Sitting there, she can look Jiang Chengzhe in the back kitchen in the eye from time to time, but at the same time, she won't affect the food being served in the back kitchen."

Seeing his wife talking more and more confidently, Feng Zhengming decided: "Okay, I'll take a look this Saturday."

Luo Qing: "Don't just watch, you have to find a way to help break the window paper."

Feng Zhengming: "That's easy. Just bring them together, have them participate in an event, and then we can expose the truth."

Then Luo Qing asked: "What activities are there?"

Feng Zhengming: "We will all take a break at the end of the month. You can invite Liu Fangyou along, and we can have a picnic together. Wouldn't that give them a chance to be together?"

Luo Qing: "This is a good idea. It allows everyone to take a break."

Suddenly Luo Qing said, "You know what? I heard that Liu Fangyou went to the store every weekend. I thought she was interested in you and wanted to see you."

Feng Zhengming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You really have a tendency to let your imagination run wild."

Luo Qing: "Then I thought, you are busy with the Old House Restaurant every day, and you rarely go to the store during this period. It is impossible for Liu Fangyou to go to the store just to see you."

Feng Zhengming: "How can your husband be so charming? You really think too much."

Luo Qing hugged her husband: "Who said that? I think my husband is very charming."

Feng Zhengming hugged his wife and said, "That's what you think. I still know myself. In terms of looks, Jiang Chengzhe is still more handsome than me, although compared to me, he looks smaller and a little thin."

Luo Qing blushed: "I still like strong men."

Feng Zhengming was aroused by his wife's thoughts and he immediately hugged her and prepared to take further action.

Suddenly at this moment, my daughter started shouting.

"Dad, Dad, Mom."

The couple smiled at each other instantly.

Luo Qing whispered in her husband's ear: "Let's put our daughter to sleep first."

Feng Zhengming smiled and nodded.

Then the couple began to coax their daughter to sleep together.

But little Feng Nuanyu took a nap in the afternoon, so his parents had to wait until midnight to fall asleep.

However, although it was already midnight, Feng Zhengming and his wife still went to the next room to go to Wushan together.

When it was just dawn in the morning, the couple hurried back to their daughter's room.

In the next few days, Feng Zhengming handed over the share issues of each store to Liu Fangyou, and he still focused all his attention on the Old House Restaurant.

But on weekends, he would come to the Western restaurant on the street.

Want to see if it is what I said to my wife?
As a result, Feng Zhengming actually saw Liu Fangyou arrive at the branch on time around noon.

And it was obvious that she had dressed up specially.

It looks like the clothes she is wearing might be newly bought, making her look more fashionable, a bit like a white-collar beauty.

After entering the door, walk to the bar outside the kitchen and sit down at the side.

The next moment, Feng Zhengming finally saw that Jiang Chengzhe approached Liu Fangyou very enthusiastically, and the two of them soon started chatting with smiles on their faces.

After seeing this scene, what else do we need to guess? This is already confirmed.

Feng Zhengming waited for Jiang Chengzhe and Liu Fangyou to chat for a while before returning to the kitchen. Only then did he change his clothes and go into the kitchen. (End of this chapter)
