Chapter 220 A Strange Gift (1)
The corner of Bai Qingli's mouth curled slightly, and he said cooperatively: "Yes, although my master's cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds recently, in order to keep improving, I still need to learn more."

"Oh." Gu Sanlin nodded. He was no longer surprised. Recently, everyone knew that Bai Qingli was thinking about cooking, so it was normal for Bai Qingli to call Gu Xiaobei a teacher.

"Third brother, are you all gone?" Gu Xiaobei approached, asked Gu Sanlin, and helped clean up the dishes.

"Yeah, everyone is drunk. The young men in the village have already gone back to their homes. Among them, they have brought a few employees from our brothers and sisters restaurant to live in their homes. For the rest, your second brother has arranged for guests I’m going to stay, and only Brother Nuomi will clean up for me.” After Gu Sanlin finished speaking, he smiled and said to Brother Nuomi: “Brother Nuomi, the guest room doesn’t have enough sleep, so I’m wronging you to squeeze in with me all night.”

"That's my honor! It just so happens that I still have a lot to learn from the third boss." Brother Nuomi said with a smile.

"That's right, brother Nuomi, you have to learn more from my third brother. I plan to let you be the manager of our second restaurant and manage the daily affairs of the second restaurant." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.

"Really?" Brother Nuomi was pleasantly surprised.

"Yeah, you are honest and stable, and you are quite flexible, which is more suitable. I have already discussed with the other two bosses. You have to work hard and don't let everyone's expectations down." Gu Xiaobei smiled, and she Originally, I wanted Ling Muchen to be the shopkeeper. After all, Ling Muchen was well-informed, smart, and knowledgeable, but Ling Muchen said that taking this year's imperial examination would take time to study, so she didn't say anything. , decided to change Nuomi brother to be the shopkeeper.

"That's great." Brother Nuomi was very happy, but immediately became sad again, and said hesitantly: "But I don't know a few words, and I may not be able to do it well then."

"What does that matter? Didn't I not know a few words at first? Later, in order to manage the restaurant well, I asked Mr. Bai to help me make up for it for a while, and I will gradually improve." Gu Sanlin said with a smile. , "People are motivated only when they are under pressure. If you take on this burden and then want to do it well, you will work hard involuntarily."

Brother Nuomi immediately looked at Bai Qingli who was helping to clear the table, and said earnestly: "Can I also ask Master Bai to help me make up for it for a while?"

"Yes, but you have to be able to accept my high-pressure teaching method." Bai Qingli said casually, smiling flatteringly and putting the bowl in Gu Xiaobei's stack on top of Gu Xiaobei's stack of bowls, seeing Gu Xiaobei cross him With a glance, Bai Qingli smiled even more happily.

"Then I won't worry about it." Brother Nuomi cheered, and said seriously: "Third boss, little boss, don't worry, I will help you manage the restaurant well!"

"Isn't that all right?" Gu Sanlin said with a smile.

Brother Nuomi was even happier, and worked harder to clean up the table.

Gu Xiaobei raised his eyebrows, and said to Bai Qingli in a low voice: "What kind of medicine did you give them? Why do they all trust you so much?"

"Who doesn't believe me here, maybe you are the only one who doesn't believe me." Bai Qingli said modestly.

"Egoist!" Gu Xiaobei unceremoniously rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.

"This is the truth, why don't you admit it?" Bai Qingli shook his head helplessly, with a greasy bowl between his thumb and middle finger, and wobbly stacked it on top of Gu Xiaobei's new bowl.

Gu Xiaobei took the bowl in Bai Qingli's hand before it was folded by Gu Xiaobei. Gu Xiaobei said dissatisfiedly, "Five fingers are dirty, but two fingers are still dirty? Why can't you take care of it?" What about the helper collecting the bowls? It’s not that I won’t wash your hands later.”

"Of course it's different. I can't help vomiting when my five fingers are dirty, but I can still bear it when my two fingers are dirty." Bai Qingli said with a smile.

"What nonsense, if you think it's dirty, go back to sleep quickly, don't get in the way here!" Gu Xiaobei snorted.

"My lord likes being here." Bai Qingli said naturally.

Gu Sanlin watched from the side and shook his head. These two people like to quarrel when they are together, but they seem to be very harmonious. Maybe some people have different ways of getting along?
Everyone started to clean up the dishes on the table. Seeing that it was late at night, they didn't wash them and put them in the basin. Someone will wash them tomorrow.The table is just placed like that, and I don’t want to, anyway, it will be placed tomorrow, so it’s a waste of time to put it away.

After tidying up, Bai Qingli went back to his home not far away, and Gu Xiaobei and the others washed up and went to sleep.

The lanterns in the whole yard are not extinguished, so the whole yard is still bright until dawn, and the atmosphere is warm and peaceful.

The next day, the banquet was normally held in a bustling manner, and it didn't fail because the Gu family invited all the villagers to help. On the contrary, it ran better than the Gu family.

Both the first room and the second room are guests who are relatives, because they felt that the second room's dinner was better than the first room's, so they all went to the first room to have a banquet first.The big room has the advantage of manpower, so it set up the banquet earlier, but because some guests have gone to the second room first, they are not good at grabbing customers openly. After all, this is a very immoral behavior and will be laughed at by the guests, so The dishes in the big room were all fried and cold, and some guests didn’t show up, but the relatives who went to the second room were told that they would come to have a banquet, so the big room couldn’t end the banquet early, so they could only arrange the food. Waiting on the table.

The other relatives on the side of the first room of the Gu family have all left, and the relatives who went to the second room first came late, but the food is already cold. It is cold in winter, and the vegetarian dishes are okay, but the meat dishes are completely uneatable. It became a thick layer of white oil, and it was disgusting to look at. Who wants to eat it?Besides, they just got full from the big house, and the relatives deeply felt that it is not as good as someone who got rich with a little bit of hard work!

After all, it's a big day, and relatives have already entered the house, so we can't let them go back without eating, right?If this is the case, then tomorrow people in ten miles and eight villages will laugh at their Gu family's big house in Nanmen village, so in order not to make the Gu's big house notorious, they will have people take the food that has condensed with fat to heat.

Fortunately, the invited villagers took the money and helped with all their heart. In a short time, more than a dozen tables of meals were cooked.The relatives have all come to the door, and it's not good to lose face. Although I don't know why the Gu family became rich, but they are rich after all. They still need help in the future, and some even have the idea of ​​​​borrowing money. So the relatives sat down to eat the feast with their own minds.

It is said that fresh meals are the best, and those dishes that have been reheated for the second time taste almost the same as leftovers, and these relatives have just eaten from Erfang, so although the meals are hot It is no longer condensed into white grease, but they still can't eat it, and they can't leave the banquet shortly after sitting down, because it means that the relatives are dissatisfied with the banquet at the host's house, so the relatives have to pretend to eat well. It looks very fragrant, that is really too painful!
