Chapter 112
On the second day after seeing the doctor, Gu Xiaobei went to the restaurant again. Now she runs to the restaurant almost every two or three days. It's not that she doesn't worry about Gu Sanlin and the others can't do well, but she has nothing to do and feels too free uneasy.

"Second brother, are these ingredients you just bought this morning?" After lunch, the restaurant was not too busy, so Gu Xiaobei let everyone go to rest, and told Gu Sanlin to watch the wind at the counter. After getting someone close to the kitchen, she dragged Gu Erye into the kitchen to check.

The routine inspection of the restaurant is a rule set by Gu Xiaobei for himself. Although Gu Sanlin and Gu Erye are in charge of the restaurant, they always make omissions, so Gu Xiaobei has to conduct a routine inspection every time he goes to the restaurant. , Check all aspects from personnel to ingredients.

"Yes, what's the problem?" Gu Erye asked doubtfully.

"Have you noticed that some of the fish and shrimp you bought this time are different from before?" Gu Xiaobei frowned and flipped through the fish and shrimp in the kitchen bucket.

"No, it's still exactly the same as before." Gu Erye said with some confusion.

"No, it's different. These fish and shrimp could be kept in a bucket for a whole day without dying before, but not long after noon today, some fish and shrimp have died one after another, which means that these fish and shrimp did not die this morning. They went to catch them, but they were sold to us today after they were caught yesterday.” Gu Xiaobei looked at a few big fish that died with rolling their eyes, and analyzed them in an orderly manner.

"Really, it didn't seem to die so fast before." Gu Erye said angrily: "No wonder some customers have reported that the fish is not fresh in the past two days. I thought it was a problem with the way the fish was cooked. I can't think of the problem. It turned out to be on the ingredients, I blame my carelessness for not noticing this problem!"

"Second brother, you have done a good job. You do so many things every day, and you are not a chef. You are not often in the kitchen. It is normal not to notice such a problem. Just pay more attention in the future." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile .

"Well, I will." Gu Erye nodded.

"A chef cooks these aquatic dishes every day? Or does every chef cook?" Gu Xiaobei asked again.

"In the past, each chef made his own specialty dishes. There were two or three chefs who could cook aquatic dishes well, but it was Master Chen Jiu who did it better, so he asked the third brother to do it himself. After making aquatic dishes, we agreed." Gu Erye said.

"Where did you buy this batch of fish and shrimp? Don't buy from this store in the future!" Gu Xiaobei said decisively.

"This is bought from the relative recommended to us by Master Chen Jiu. It was not like this before. At that time, the fish and shrimp in their family were indeed better, fat and big. It is the same now, but it is unexpected that it is not as fresh as before. " Gu Erye said regretfully.

"No wonder Chen Jiu didn't report it on purpose. It turned out that he wanted to help his relatives cover it up! Anyway, they can't keep their promises, so we can no longer buy from them, otherwise the customers will have bad stomachs if they eat it." Gu Xiaobei said indifferently, "I would rather choose fish that are slightly worse than these fish and shrimp, and I can't choose stale fish and shrimp!"

"Okay, I won't buy from them from now on. I'll find some better ones, but Master Chen Jiu may not be convinced." Gu Datian said with some concern.

"It's okay, you can tell him first in the afternoon, if he has any objections, you can ask him to come to me." Gu Xiaobei said lightly.

"Yeah." Gu Erye nodded, Gu Xiaobei was much smarter than their brothers, and he handled these problems better than them.

Gu Xiaobei looked around, and when he saw no one approaching, he said to Gu Erye: "Second brother, what I asked you and third brother to pay attention to earlier, do you have any clues?" After the spy came out, she began to pay attention carefully, and asked Gu Erye and Gu Sanlin to help pay attention.

"No, we've been paying attention for a long time, but we haven't found anything. Everyone is normal, little girl, do you think we are overthinking?" Gu Erye said solemnly.

"I don't know. Be careful. Ever since I found out about that, I've been worried about what's going on in the restaurant. If it's really like what Huangfutang said, it will be serious if something happens in the future!" Gu Xiaobei said with a frown.

"Indeed, if someone really has a different heart, the restaurant will be very dangerous." Gu Erye struggled and said, "But what should we do? They seem to be all right, and we can't startle the snake."

"That can't be helped. We can only pay more attention. If someone in the restaurant really has a different heart, they will show their feet." Gu Xiaobei rubbed his forehead and murmured: "Maybe we can lure the snake out of the hole."

Gu Erye didn't know what Gu Xiaobei meant, but he didn't ask any more questions. He patted Gu Xiaobei's head with a smile: "No matter what my little sister does, my brothers will always support you."

"Thank you, Second Brother, it's great to have you!" Gu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes happily.

"Of course!" Gu Erye smiled, then seemed to think of something, and said to Gu Xiaobei: "By the way, did Jiantian take his medicine at noon?"

Gu Xiaobei's face was covered with black lines, she suddenly felt unhappy again, and said with a bitter face: "No, the medicine is so bitter, and there is no candied fruit."

"Fool! You have to drink bitterness. If you don't take the medicine, you can't get better." Gu Erye shook his head lovingly, and said with a smile: "Hurry up and fry the medicine, I'll go and buy the candied fruit for you now." .”

"Thank you, Second Brother!" Gu Xiaobei said with a beaming smile.

"Thank you, they are all my brothers and sisters!" Gu Erye patted her head again before going out to buy her candied fruit.

While decocting the medicine, Gu Xiaobei continued to check other problems in the restaurant, but found no other abnormalities. She didn't drink the medicine until Gu Erye bought candied fruit.

In the afternoon, Gu Erye told Chen Jiu that he would no longer purchase goods from Chen Jiu's relatives. Chen Jiu really refused to accept it, and immediately found Gu Xiaobei and came to him.

"Little boss, I heard from the second boss that you have decided that the restaurant will no longer buy from my relatives?" Chen Jiu looked at Gu Xiaobei dissatisfied.

"Wow!" Sitting in front of the counter, Gu Xiaobei put the teacup heavily on the table, glared sharply at Chen Jiu who was standing in front of her, and said coldly, "You have the nerve to say so!"

Gu Xiaobei's anger was fierce, Chen Jiu's eyebrows twitched, suppressing the tension in his heart, he frowned and said, "I don't understand what the little boss means!"

"You don't understand what I mean? Okay, then I will explain to you why you found out that some of the fish and shrimps in the restaurant were not fresh, and you didn't report to the second and third bosses?" Gu Xiaobei stared coldly. Looking into Chen Jiu's eyes, he felt a little guilty, and still refused to let him go.
