Escape after crossing

He was worried that if the two bosses delayed any longer, he would not be able to eat anymore, so while greeting the two bosses, he secretly glanced at Jiang Ziluo and the others.

I was shouting in my heart, eat slowly, leave some for me, I haven’t eaten yet.

Although Jiang Ziluo hadn't eaten it for a long time, she tasted it now, but she only ate for a while and then stopped. Seeing everyone eating vigorously, she felt very happy.

She was of course happy that the fresh food was accepted and welcomed, especially when Manager Liu said that it was so delicious. It was as if Jiang Ziluo had seen Xiao Qianqian waving at her.

Mingyue saw Jiang Ziluo smiling and asked, "Miss, aren't these the same dishes we had yesterday? Why don't they have that fishy smell? And the meat inside these shellfish is so tender."

Jiang Ziluo looked at Mingyue's expression at this moment, as if he saw Mingxi's greedy look. If Mingxi were here, he would probably have finished eating all of it by now.

"Is it delicious?" Mingyue kept nodding her head. "Then eat more. You won't be able to eat such delicious food when you return home."

"Girl, I haven't told you how to make this yet, and it doesn't smell fishy?"

"Why? Do you want to learn?"

Mingyue immediately shook her head, but the chopsticks in her hand and her mouth never stopped. She took a bite and said vaguely, "Let Mingxi cook it. She's delicious."

Speaking of delicious food, Jiang Ziluo has indeed witnessed Mingxi's foodie nature in the past two days, but what surprised Jiang Ziluo is that although Mingxi can eat a lot and loves food, he doesn't gain weight at all.

"Hehe, do you think Mingxi will be angry when she comes back and finds out that we ate such delicious food while she was away?"

"No, she will just pester you to do it for her again."

"Haha, then let's wait until we get back and let the chef cook for her!"

Right after Jiang Ziluo finished speaking, Shopkeeper Liu came over anxiously. When he saw that half of the crayfish had been eaten, he sat down and started eating without caring whether there were any more customers coming.

Jiang Ziluo looked up at the restaurant. The waiters had already come out of the kitchen and were greeting the guests. Boss Zhang and Boss Li, who were the first to enter, would look at Manager Liu from time to time.

Look, the two of them were talking in private. But Jiang Ziluo didn't know what they were talking about. However, several guests came in later, some of whom were familiar with Manager Liu. Seeing that Manager Liu was eating so happily, they couldn't help but tease him.

After a while, everyone was discussing the so-called crayfish, and Manager Liu announced that this new dish would be served in the evening when there were the most people.

There was a buzz of discussion in the lobby. Those who arrived first knew what was going on, while those who came later who didn't know were asking around, and those who knew would repeat it.

Manager Liu did not explain. He went behind the counter, took a pen and paper, and wrote a notice stating that Huajianfu would launch a new dish in the evening, and the quantity of the new dish was limited, so it would be on a first-come, first-served basis.

Then Manager Liu called the waiter who went to catch crayfish in the morning and asked him to find someone to catch crayfish now and then send them back so that this dish could be served in the evening.

The reason why Manager Liu dared to talk about the launch of new dishes without saying hello to Jiang Ziluo was that when he was watching Chef Huang frying crayfish, he suddenly remembered that there were rumors that new dishes were launched almost every month, and the recipes of these new dishes were provided by a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old.

When Shopkeeper Liu saw that Jiang Ziluo had handed the recipe directly to Chef Huang, and combined with the content of the secret letter that Leng Chenming had given him before, he concluded that Jiang Ziluo was the girl who came up with the new recipe.

After tasting the delicious crayfish and the fresh fish, he couldn't help but admire Jiang Ziluo. A little girl in her teens could have such skills and talents, which was something many people envied.

After giving the order, Manager Liu came over to Jiang Ziluo and asked in a low voice.

"Girl, the master doesn't know the recipe yet, right? Should we send a message to him?"

"Well, spread it. This crayfish is only available in the south, so there's no need to spread this recipe to the north."

"Yes, girl."

Shopkeeper Liu is a shrewd man. He got everything ready before he remembered that his guesses about Jiang Ziluo's identity were all his own.

But he had already said it, so he changed his words to talk to Jiang Ziluo. Jiang Ziluo didn't think too much about it. Leng Chenming had already written a secret letter to the shopkeeper, so she thought the shopkeeper already knew her identity.

After lunch, Jiang Ziluo took Shitou and the three children to her room, and Mingyue naturally followed as well.

"Do you three have names?" Jiang Ziluo asked.

One of the older boys, imitating everyone else's way of calling, said, "Girl, we don't have a name."

"How old are you, do you know?"

"I don't know."

Jiang Ziluo asked the three children to come over. She took their pulse one by one and knew their physical conditions clearly, but she did not prescribe any medicine for them.

"Do you know anyone or are you on good terms with? Would you like to follow me and I will teach you how to read and learn medical skills?"

The three of them looked at each other for a while, and the smallest one spoke timidly. "Then, can we have enough food?"

The older child pulled the younger one and said, "Girl, we are all the lowest class of people. We may not know other things, but there is one thing I know.

When we were begging, we heard a saying that there is no such thing as a free lunch. We had just had a full meal, and the girl hadn't said anything for us to do.

Now you want to teach us to read and learn medicine. How can such a good thing happen? Please tell me everything you want to do in the future!"

Jiang Ziluo had a different impression of this child. He was very smart and quick-witted. Jiang Ziluo liked him very much.

"You're right. There is no such thing as a free lunch. I am willing to teach you how to read and learn medicine, but of course there are conditions.

After you have learned the medical skills, you have to earn money for me for ten years. Of course, after you have learned the medical skills, you have to sign a ten-year contract with me."

"Really only ten years?"

"Of course. If you agree, don't even think about leaving halfway. Even if you can escape, I can still catch you back. But by that time, I don't know if you can bear the consequences."

Jiang Ziluo cannot look after them personally, so naturally some of these people will want to escape, so Jiang Ziluo still has to say something in advance.

"Will the girl teach you?"

"Of course not. Someone will come to teach you in a few days. If you want to learn martial arts while learning medicine, you can do that too."

Jiang Ziluo saw that the three of them did not answer, but looked at each other. Jiang Ziluo did not let them agree immediately, and then said to Shi Tou.

"Is there anyone in your alley who wants to learn to read and study medicine? I can do it for free, but the conditions are the same. After you finish your studies, you have to sign a 10-year indenture with me."

"Girl, are you serious? For a poor family like us, it is a great blessing for us to be able to let our children learn medicine."

"Are you willing to learn?" Jiang Ziluo asked Shi Tou again.

“I can learn it, too.”
