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

"Hey, have you heard? There is a Tianshi sect in this city. The Tianshi performs rituals in front of everyone. It's amazing." In recent days, many people have been talking about the Tianshi sect.

The Tianshi Sect was originally only popular in certain areas of Kyoto City, but for some reason, many people in Kyoto City have known about it in the past few days, and it has been spread as a miraculous religion.

"Is it true? I saw it at the bridgehead yesterday. Someone was claiming that if you join the Tianshi sect, you will be free from all diseases, have a lot of money and become wealthy." Another person standing behind that person couldn't help but interrupt when he heard it.

"How could this be false? The day before yesterday, this Heavenly Master taught a disciple, who spit out five-colored water at the South Gate on the spot. Many people saw it. Green, red, black, white, and yellow, five colors. After spitting, the disciple happily ran back to the city, saying that he wanted to thank the Heavenly Master for saving him. After he left, some people said that this person could not stand up for the past few days, but since he joined the Heavenly Master's sect, all his illnesses have been cured." The man who spoke at the beginning said again.

Everyone around was amazed, and many people questioned the truth of this matter.

"Isn't this some trick?" someone couldn't help but ask.

"If you say that the five-colored water is a trick, then he can't stand up. But many people say that if the disease can be cured by a trick, then that's fine." Someone refuted him.

For a while, there were different opinions in the restaurant.

An Qiao couldn't help but shook her head and reminded the people in the store again not to believe in the Tianshi Sect easily.

She didn't know anything else, but this five-colored water was in the ancient magic encyclopedia she had read in her previous life.

But they are all made from medicine, nothing special. If someone has been ill for a long time, drinking a little of this water will make him recover, but An Qiao doesn't believe it.

Probably just some little tricks.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and An Qiao went to the grocery store to send out the gift boxes according to the pre-ordered quantity and categories.

Without further delay, he left the restaurant.

Yu Dong had already opened the door of the grocery store, and An Qiao skillfully placed the sign she had written yesterday at the door.

【Mid-Autumn Festival gift boxes have arrived, those who have made reservations can pick them up first. 】

The only regret about this Mid-Autumn Festival gift box is that there is no ham flavor, but Anqiao has made other flavors.

Most of those who pre-ordered gift boxes were from wealthy families, and those who came to pick them up were maids and servants.

Many people came before the sun got too high.

"From the residence of the Minister of Industry, three boxes of flower-filled gift boxes, four boxes of reunion gift boxes, and five pairs of smiling jade rabbits..."

"From the Ministry of Revenue's family, two boxes of flower-filled gift boxes, four boxes of reunion gift boxes, the Jade Rabbit is about to fly to the Moon Rabbit, four pairs..."

"..."

Many people came in the morning, and the people in the store could only keep moving the gift boxes out. By the time they sold them to individual customers in the afternoon, only half of the gift boxes were left.

"Boss, what's the difference between this cluster of flowers and this reunion?" a man asked, looking at the various gift boxes.

"The fillings in these Huaqunjinchuang are mostly sweet, and the Tuantuanyuanyuan have a lot of meat fillings. So every box contains both sweet and salty, but they are slightly different." An Qiao replied.

The man nodded, not quite understanding. "Then bring one of each. We have a boy and a girl at home. One likes meat, and the other likes sweets. I don't want to argue with them when the time comes."

The man's words were rude, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

An Qiao skillfully wrapped the gift box for him and quickly served the next customer.

After a busy whole day, all the gift boxes were sold out and then they took a break.

An Qiao also left a lot of gift boxes in the store today. One is to give to the employees, and the other is to keep some for herself. Tonight is Mid-Autumn Festival anyway, even if there is no family reunion, you should still have a good meal.

"Stop working so hard. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. Go back early and we'll make something delicious." An Qiao said with a smile.

Actually, it was delicious, but nothing special. An Qiao just planned to stir-fry some vegetables and some firewood chicken.

This is more convenient and faster.

Heat the pan with half lard and half rapeseed oil. Add more oil than a dry pan. When the oil is hot, pour in the washed chicken and stir-fry for a few minutes.

Add chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, bean paste, onion, ginger, garlic, pickled ginger, and pickled peppers in turn and stir-fry until fragrant, sprinkle some salt, add a bowl of water, cover the pot and cook for a quarter of an hour.

Then add the lettuce, bean sprouts, tofu, lotus root slices, potatoes, mushrooms, garlic sprouts, bean curd skin, and eggplant in turn and simmer for a quarter of an hour.

At the same time, place a circle of corn tortillas around the edge of the pot.

I took another big pot and stir-fried the vegetables, and today's dinner was ready.

Because it was Mid-Autumn Festival, we didn't plan to serve midnight snacks. There were not many people eating dinner, so the Kyoto restaurant closed early.

"Everyone, eat quickly while it's hot. There will be mooncakes later, so don't overeat." An Qiao poured out the brewed pine leaf tea and gave some to everyone.

For a moment, the only sound that could be heard was the collision of chopsticks and bowls.

......

The Marquis's family also bought some mooncakes to try, and the whole family sat together, watching the little girl open the exquisitely designed box, full of curiosity.

The eldest princess and the old marquis are already regular customers of Kyoto Restaurant's takeout, but the rest of the people, except Gu Qingyun, have never eaten at Kyoto Restaurant.

Everyone was very curious.

The princess picked up a piece of snowy mooncake and put it into her mouth. "This mooncake is so delicious. I wonder what it's made of?"

It is soft and sticky, but not sticky at all. Although it doesn't have a rich taste, it is not too sweet, and you will want to eat it one bite after another.

"Is it so delicious, grandma?" asked Gu Qingyun's eldest brother Gu Qingpei.

Gu Qingpei is not like Gu Qingyun. He is the eldest son and has been reserved and polite since he was young. He has always had his own demands when it comes to food.

"Si Ze, it's delicious. If you trust your grandma, try it." The eldest princess smiled.

The whole family was amused by the little one behind the old man's back, and even the old marquis took a piece and took a bite. In fact, the old marquis never liked sweet things. Like Gu Qingyun, he loved the spicy food in Kyoto restaurants.

"Hey, this is the snow skin mooncake. The filling inside seems to be egg yolk." The old marquis chewed a few more times.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" asked the eldest princess.

"It tastes good, but the egg yolk is a bit too much and makes my throat burn." After swallowing it, the old marquis drank two sips of milk tea before he felt better.

"Oh, this young lady is really a genius. I don't know why it tastes so good when eaten with milk tea." The old marquis exclaimed.

Lord Gu, Madam Gu, and Gu Qingpei also picked up a piece and put it in their mouths.

After a while, everyone's faces were filled with surprise. They didn't expect it to be so delicious.

I have eaten mooncakes before, but they were either too sweet, too greasy, or the fillings had a strange taste. However, the mooncakes in Kyoto restaurants do not have these problems at all.
