The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 261 busy

Han Qianluo was instructing Hua Botao to prepare various seasonings, when he heard Xiong Li's enthusiastic voice from the hall: "Butler Zhang, please sit inside, what do you want to order today?"

"I heard that the chef of your restaurant was taken into the palace by the empress dowager, so can the food in your restaurant still be the same as usual?" Butler Zhang didn't hide his doubts.

Han Qianluo was a little worried when he heard what this man said, so he asked Hua Botao to continue chopping vegetables, while he went out, just in time to hear Xiong Li's promise with a smile: "Don't worry, there is still time for the apprentice to leave." As for the master, it is guaranteed to be more delicious than usual, so you can order with confidence."

"Then I don't worry," Zhang Butler felt relieved, opened the menu and ordered a bunch of dishes, "I want these dishes today, and my master will come over at four o'clock in the afternoon, you have to remember clearly." Close it, and leave.

Xiong Li took out a brush and recorded the dishes ordered by Butler Zhang in detail. Seeing this, Han Qianluo was a little surprised and said, "You can write?" Difficulty, but I didn't expect this Xiong Li to be able to write.

"I learned to write some simple characters before." Xiong Li said modestly.

Han Qianluo naturally knew that this was modesty, so she said that. Just now, Steward Zhang ordered a lot of words for the dishes, and the words were well written. It can't be practiced in a short time, so she thinks she must have learned it. It took a long time, but these things didn't have much to do with her, so this guess stayed in her mind for less than a breath before she was thrown away and concentrated on preparing the dishes ordered by Butler Zhang.

After a while, she suddenly heard a young woman's voice in the hall, then Xiong Li walked in with a piece of paper, handed it to her and said: "The shopkeeper, this is the dish that the girl just ordered, she said Do it now, and she will take it away when it is done."

"Okay, I got it." Han Qianluo said as he took over the paper and looked at it. Fortunately, it was not complicated. It was just some stir-fried vegetables, and it didn't take much time, so it was done quickly.

While Han Qianluo was cooking for the girl, a few more customers came outside to order food, but these people were all ordering for their masters, and after a while she was holding several dishes in her hand. A list, although the dishes on each list are not particularly many, but there are not many, enough to keep her busy for a while.

The busy time soon came to noon, and the people who came to eat at this time came one after another. Of course, not only those who had ordered before, but more customers who ordered after they came .

Han Qianluo didn't know that the shop would be so busy before, but now she realized how good the business is after practicing it herself. She was almost overwhelmed by cooking alone. But I am very happy in my heart. If the business is good, I am naturally happy, even if I am a little tired.

After all the guests had left, she finally had time to rest. She didn't feel much when she was busy before, but when she was free, all the strength in her body seemed to disappear in an instant. She was so tired that she sat down. I don't want to move in the chair, and I don't even want to eat.

Feng Zhi noticed her strangeness, and asked worriedly: "Sister Liu, what's the matter with you, is there something wrong with your body?" She shook her head weakly, and said softly, "I'm just a little tired, just take a rest and you'll be fine." After speaking, I felt a little thirsty, so I stood up to drink water.

"Shopkeeper, just let me know if you have anything to say." Xiong Qiang said hastily.

Han Qianluo thought for a while, pouring a glass of water was nothing, besides, she really didn't want to move now, so she sat down again and said, "Pour me a glass of water." Xiong Qiang quickly poured a glass of water Putting it on the table in front of her, she picked up the tea and said habitually: "Thank you." Then she drank the glass of water in one gulp, completely oblivious to the surprised expressions of the guys next to her.

"There are more guests today than the previous few days. I don't know if it's because of yesterday's incident." Feng Zhi said with some uncertainty.

Han Qianluo wasn't here at noon a few days ago, and he didn't know how many guests there were at noon, so when he heard what the little uncle said, he quickly asked: "Today's guests are more than a little bit more than the previous few days. There were only two or three people who asked the servants to order in advance, but today there are many more, and there is not even a single table in the hall that is vacant."

"Business is good, that's a good thing." Han Qianluo said with a smile.

After resting for a while and having lunch, she went back. For the next ten days, she was in the shop, teaching apprentices while cooking. The business in the shop was getting better and better. She was so busy at noon every day. After all, I didn't even have the energy to eat, so naturally I didn't have the energy to think about other things.

However, such days finally came to an end after half a month. Hua Botao had almost learned it, and Han Qianluo only needed to stand aside and watch, giving guidance from time to time. She just stood there in a daze.

Suddenly, the conversation in the hall outside reached her ears, and a man said mysteriously: "Have you heard about the Qin family?" After hearing this, she suddenly became interested, because Han Shui'er She was still in the Qin Mansion, so she quickly pricked up her ears to listen to what the people outside continued to say.

"What's the matter, tell me quickly?" Another man asked quickly, very curious.

The man who spoke before suddenly lowered his voice, as if he was worried about being heard, but in fact he was just pretending to be mysterious, because Han Qianluo could hear it even in the back kitchen, but his voice was slightly softer: "The Qin family a few days ago You know the daughter-in-law who just walked in, right?"

"I know, but it doesn't seem to be very good. I heard that she is just the daughter of a merchant's family. She looks just average, nothing special. I don't know why the Qin family let such a girl in."

"You don't know that. I heard that the most precious grandson of Mrs. Qin is dying. You understand."

Although there is no direct reason for this sentence, anyone who is not a fool can understand what it means, and the other man naturally understands it, so he said a little puzzled: "This kind of thing is normal, and there is nothing strange about it? "

"The precious young master died a few days ago, but that's not the most important thing. Do you know what happened afterwards?" The first man who spoke said deliberately.

The other man was aroused by his curiosity, and kept urging: "Tell me quickly, what happened, don't keep it a secret."

"Well, let me tell you, after the fifth young master Qin died, that woman immediately hooked up with another young master in the mansion, but she was unlucky and was caught and raped in bed."

"Hey, why are you here? You really don't want to be lonely." The other man said lewdly, and then talked about other topics.

After listening to Han Qianluo, there was a wave of turmoil in her heart, but most of them were happy and gloated. Han Shuier would be unlucky this time, she couldn't help thinking, and then put this matter behind her, and didn't go any further. She thought, because she felt that after what happened last time, it was impossible for Han Shuier to come back to ask for help with such a thick skin, so she was not worried, on the contrary, she was still in a good mood, what to do.

After noon, Han Qianluo was about to go back, so he walked over to Feng Zhi and said, "Little uncle, there are no guests for dinner, so I'll go back first." After speaking, he planned to go out.Feng Zhi quickly stopped her and said, "Sister Liu, wait a minute."

"Little uncle, is there anything else?" Han Qianluo stopped, turned around and asked.

Feng Zhi came over, stood in front of her and said: "Sister Liu, the business in our shop is really good now, just these few people are too busy, do you want to find two more people?"

Han Qianluo thought for a while, these days she has been in the shop, the business is indeed very good, the guys are very busy, there is no time to stop, especially the cook here, he is very busy, now he is here Fortunately, I can still help out, but I can't stay here all the time. It seems that I really need to find two buddies, especially a buddy to help the cook.

"Okay, I see. I'll go to the prostitute now to see if there is anyone suitable." Han Qianluo left after finishing speaking, and went straight to the prostitute.

She had just walked to the door of the prostitute's shop, and before she went in, the prostitute greeted her warmly and said, "The shopkeeper Han is here, how many people do you want this time?"

"I haven't spoken yet, how do you know I'm looking for someone?" Han Qianluo said casually with a smile, walking into the shop while speaking.

The matchmaker also walked in, pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down quickly," and then she sat down and said, "Now who doesn't know the newly opened restaurant, I heard that it's hard to eat at your place now." You have to queue for a long time to be late, and with such a good business, the few people you were looking for at the time must not be enough." While speaking, he had an expression of "don't try to hide it from me".

Although Han Qianluo was very happy and proud, he couldn't show it. He pretended to deny it and said, "Where, these are all rumors. There is no need to line up, but there is indeed a lack of manpower now, so I want to find three more people. The requirements are the same as before, preferably able to read and write."

"No problem, several people have come to register to find work these days, and your restaurant business is so good now, you can choose whatever you want." The matchmaker said and took out a booklet, opened the booklet and introduced the restaurant. A guy who can be picked for the second time.

After listening to Han Qianluo, she picked three good ones, and it was better to come to see them tomorrow morning, because she was in a hurry to ask for someone, so she agreed to come to see them tomorrow, and if it was suitable, she could lead them to work tomorrow.

After the matter was settled, she went home, but she had just returned home, and before she had time to enter the door, she heard a familiar and annoying voice.
