Survival rules for restaurants: cooking and eating melons at the same time

During the Chinese New Year, whether in modern times or ancient times, whether children or adults, their faces are involuntarily filled with joy.

Many children put on their new coats and ran around the streets and alleys of Kyoto Prefecture, looking fair and tender.

Qi Ning'an also braided a Lingxu bun. This hairstyle is like clouds coiling back and forth, hanging on the top of the head, shaking without falling off.

Normally, Qi Ning'an hated having her hair done, but today, everyone had their hair done and if she didn't she would seem out of place, so she simply sat in front of the bronze mirror and let Jin Xi do whatever she wanted.

"Young lady, you are so pretty. You are almost nineteen years old, but you look so cute even with your hair done like this."

Jin Xi now always makes jokes about Qi Ning'an, and it is visible to the naked eye that everyone around Qi Ning'an is in high spirits.

"You are getting better at making fun of me now."

Qi Ning'an smiled and turned back, pinching Jin Xi's belly, "Look at you, you've only gained a little weight after being with me for half a year. Be careful that you won't be able to get married in the future."

Jin Xi immediately hid back with a smile, her bell-like laughter could be heard even outside the door, "Oh...Miss, please stop teasing me, I won't marry you."

Now, many little girls around Qi Ning'an have said this: they don't want to get married or anything like that.

As a result, everyone followed suit. Whenever this matter was mentioned, everyone said that they would not marry and would stay with the young lady for the rest of their lives.

Last time, Qi Ningliang said that his sister and everyone else were unwilling to get married.

Many diners were extremely disappointed. After all, they saw these beautiful young ladies coming in and out every day, and they all felt that they seemed to be getting more and more beautiful, but no one was willing to get married.

A few days ago, there was a scholar who often came to have dinner. He was determined to marry Yu Shui. Wherever Yu Shui went, he followed her and kept showing how much he loved her.

Frightened, Yu Shui kept looking for Qi Ning'an frantically, hoping that the young lady would save her.

Qi Ning'an didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He blocked the eager scholar with a serious face, "If you like her, just say it with your mouth. Why do you keep chasing her? She is so scared that she dares not come out. Besides, our Yu Shui is still young. Please don't come here to pollute the future flowers of our motherland, okay?"

Scholar: Motherland? Flowers? Why can’t an unmarried man or woman ask for marriage? ! !

Before he could finish his words, Qi Ning'an pointed at the door and signaled him to leave quickly. "Come and eat, you are welcome anytime, but don't chase after our rain."

The scholar looked back every few steps, his face full of grievance.

He really didn't understand where he was wrong.

Yu Shui also really didn't understand why she was liked. It was really scary.

Everyone still laughs when they think about this now, saying that Yu Shui has grown up and is being pursued by someone.

However, Yu Shui has been avoiding the scholar since that day, fearing that he would suddenly appear and chase her with questions.

……

After an hour, Qi Ning'an was finally released back into the restaurant by Jin Xi.

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

The snow on the ground was neither thick nor thin, and it made a crackling sound when stepped on. Qi Ningan was a southerner in his previous life and usually stayed in the south, so he had rarely seen snow.

Since I traveled through time, I can see snow every year, and suddenly I understand the joy of brewing tea around the fire.

There was warm tea and steam inside, and snow was falling outside, which was really intoxicating.

Another whole year has passed, and everyone is asking each other "Happy New Year", as if they are full of expectations and hopes for the new year.

Even those people on the street who have not had a good year are full of hope for next year. Everyone is in high spirits, watching the changing of seasons.

Qi Ning'an stood in the restaurant and suddenly became full of hope for next year.

The temple in Tianyuanju has been almost completed, and Master Daoqing can move in before the beginning of spring every year.

In addition, many monks who practice Buddhism from all over the country have also signed up to practice Buddhism in this temple next year.

Here, the place has not been built yet, but people have already moved in.

This made Qi Ning'an feel more stable.

There were more important people attending this year's New Year's Eve dinner than last year, and the servants were lined up almost the moment Qi Ning'an announced the news.

Therefore, many of those who failed to book a table this year were ordinary people, and many of them were diners who had been eating in the restaurant for a long time.

Seeing them leaving disappointed because they failed to reserve a table, Qi Ning'an felt a little embarrassed.

After all, many people save up for many months just to eat a lot of delicious food on the New Year's Eve dinner. Although it seems more economical to cook at home, it is never too much to have a good meal at the end of the year.

Moreover, restaurants in Kyoto are not expensive, so many people are looking forward to it.

Qi Ning'an was also very anxious. After all, he didn't want everyone to miss out on delicious food.

So in the end, Qi Ning'an called a few young chefs over and discussed, "There are too many people for the New Year's Eve dinner. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for those dignitaries to come to the restaurant. Why not let their servants take the dishes back and let them eat in their respective mansions. Then we can free up the seats in our restaurant and reserve them for others."

Lixia nodded, indicating that she could accept it. Lixia has been getting better and better this year. She cooks quickly and well, and the taste is almost exactly the same as Qi Ningan's.

Lidong also thinks it’s okay.

Even Guyu had never fought such a fierce "battle" before, and was a little nervous. "Will I be too busy and mess up both sides?"

Qi Ning'an frowned and thought, it was just afraid of this, otherwise, there was nothing to worry about.

"How about we book a few less tables? Or put up a notice, and those who have already booked tables can take the food home if they want. There are definitely some people who don't want to go home, so we can add a few more tables when we have the spare capacity."

Lidong lowered his eyes and thought about it, and finally came to this conclusion.

Qi Ning'an's eyes lit up. It turned out that it was best to raise children in a multi-faceted way. When they first came, everyone was timid and didn't dare to say a lot of things. Now, everyone feels smart, brave, and powerful.

"Sure! I think Lidong's method is very good."

Everyone nodded in agreement. As long as they weren't preparing a hundred or eighty tables, they should be able to handle it. After all, for festivals like the New Year's Eve dinner and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, more than half of the dishes are pre-prepared.

That is to say, you have to start preparing the dishes in the morning, and in the evening you just need to add some sauce or do some slight processing.

After getting a unanimous answer, Qi Ning'an immediately wrote a notice and posted it at the entrance of the restaurant.
