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

When Eunuch Wei and Xiao Pingzi returned to the palace, the food in the food box was still hot and exuded a fragrant aroma. "What is this?"

Xiao Pingzi answered truthfully, and then said, "I don't know if it tastes good or not. I just asked for some fried food when I went in. After all, I didn't know what kind of fried food they had, and there was not even a menu. The shopkeeper went in and made it. When he came out, he introduced it to me, and I came out with the food box."

"How do we order food without a menu?" Eunuch Wei asked in surprise.

"There's no menu. They seem to just tell us what they like, or order based on the dishes." Xiao Pingzi stared at the food box. There was nothing he could do about it; it smelled so good.

When Eunuch Wei saw his disciple like this, he couldn't help but said with disdain, "Hurry up and get some plates to serve the food. I'm afraid you'll drool on my food."

Xiao Pingzi smiled innocently, turned around immediately, took the plate, picked up all the food from the takeout box, and just like usual, took out a small portion with a small plate.

"Try it quickly." Eunuch Wei took a silver needle to test the poison, and when it was found to be OK, he said.

Xiao Pingzi immediately couldn't wait to take a bite of the fried chicken.

Maybe it was because it had been in the food box for a while, so it was not as crispy as when it was taken out, but it was delicious enough. It was drizzled with honey, and it tasted great when I bit it.

The outside is crispy and the chicken inside is tender and delicious. The taste of oil and honey spreads in the mouth. After chewing, I feel full instantly.

Paired with a sip of passion fruit juice, it is both refreshing and not astringent.

In fact, I bought this passion fruit from a merchant in Qiongzhou after searching for a long time. It is not as fragrant as the passion fruit nowadays. It is small and wrinkled, and even a little astringent and sour.

Every time she got the fruit, An Qiao would first put the pulp into a sugar jar, marinate it with sugar for a while, and then make the juice with honey.

I don't know if it's a matter of time and space, but in the original world, passion fruit appeared relatively late. But in the Dayan Dynasty that An Qiao came to, it seemed that everything could be found, especially pineapples, which were so delicious that they were delicious without the use of sugar to make syrup.

Eunuch Wei took a bite of the sweet potato ball. It was soft and sticky, and there seemed to be some red bean paste or some other filling inside, which was particularly warming to the stomach. The outside was fried crispy, and I had no idea what the texture inside was like.

"What is this?" Eunuch Wei asked as he picked up a French fry.

"These are French fries, made from potatoes." Xiao Pingzi quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "There is a tomato sauce on the side. The shopkeeper said that it tastes better when dipped in it."

Eunuch Wei picked up one and put it in his mouth. Compared with the sweet potato balls and fried chicken, this French fry seemed to be inferior, and the taste was not particularly unforgettable. It just magnified the original aroma of the potato.

Eunuch Wei picked up another French fry and dipped it in ketchup. The French fry seemed to be activated at this moment. The ketchup was sour and sweet, with a moderate taste, and it was a perfect match with the French fry.

The two of them quickly ate up all the food in the food box, not even a drop of passion fruit juice was left.

Eunuch Wei said contentedly, "It's really good. It's fresh and delicious. No wonder many people say that this restaurant is delicious."

Eunuch Wei thought silently, I hope the Dali Temple can solve the case quickly, and next time he goes to announce the imperial edict, he will buy some other food.

Xiao Pingzi thought so too. When he arrived at the store today, he saw some people eating something around a pot. It also smelled delicious. However, due to his status, he could not stay there for long, otherwise he would have wanted to try what the pot tasted like.

After An Qiao finished her work here, she had to rush back to the farm. The soap factory had already started operating for a few days, but she didn't know how the progress was. If she didn't keep an eye on it, she would always feel a little worried.

There is also the pastry chef from the milk tea shop, but I haven’t figured out where to poach him.

The Monopoly game that Anqiao had thought of yesterday was drawn overnight and Koi was asked to take it to the carpenter's shop to be made. Anqiao was confident that within a few days, it would become one of the most popular games in Kyoto Prefecture.

Tong Yiyi hadn't seen Tong Shan and his wife for a long time. It happened that no one was driving the carriage today, so An Qiao asked Tong Yiyi to go along.

The grocery store was left to Shuanzi to look after for a day.

It was at this time that An Qiao remembered what Tong Shan had asked her to do last time, asking her to help Yi Yi find a wife.

As soon as the carriage left the city, An Qiao opened the curtain. Tong Yiyi was startled, "Young lady, if you have anything, just call me directly."

"Yes, but I have to speak quietly." An Qiao said seriously.

Tong Yiyi went over it in his mind. Have you done anything wrong recently? Is the account correct? Did you fail to ship the goods? Did you forget to ship the goods out of the warehouse?

"Your father and mother think that you are old and it is time for you to get married. You are working in my shop now, and you are a little far away from your parents. Your father wants me to remind you a few things." An Qiao paused and said, "Don't feel any psychological burden. I am only asking for your father, but don't be frivolous with other young ladies outside."

An Qiao stopped at that point and let down the curtain without caring what Yi Yi was thinking.

In fact, An Qiao shouldn't have told this matter, but Tong Shan and his wife lived far away from her, so he brought it up to An Qiao.

Tong Yiyi can only worry about herself.

Tong Yiyi's face was flushed at this moment. After all, before today, he had never thought about this matter. He thought that this matter should have always been just the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words.

I never thought I would have to consider this myself.

But fortunately, the young lady told him in advance, otherwise he would not know what his parents would ask him when he arrived at the farm today.

By then my mother will start nagging me again, saying that she won’t be able to think about me if I’m not around and how I can build a career without getting married.

The two of them had a bumpy journey to the village. Tongshan was very excited to see that it was his son who came, as he hadn't seen his son for some time.

Tong Yiyi was also very happy. When she walked into the house, she felt that even Tong Yao had grown up a lot, even though it was only a few months.

An Qiao followed Tong Shan to the fields and the soap factory.

Tong Yiyi stayed in the house to accompany her mother and little Tong Yao. As soon as the young lady left, Aunt Tong asked, "How are you, Yiyi? How are you doing recently?"

He nodded one by one, and couldn't help shuddering when he thought of the young lady's reminder just now.

As expected, the mother and son didn't ask about each other's well-being for a few words. Aunt Tong went straight to the point, "Has the young lady mentioned your marriage to you? You are already an adult, and we don't have any foundation. Unlike other families who have their mother's family to introduce you, if you don't trouble the young lady, I don't know who will choose a suitable wife for you. But the young lady is still unmarried after all, so this matter should not be done by her. Don't you have to be careful yourself?"

Tong Yiyi's originally awkward mood disappeared instantly. Her mother was right. Her family was not the kind of family with a large family. If she didn't take care of it, the young lady would have to worry about it. And the young lady was still unmarried, so it really shouldn't be like this.

Tong Yi nodded, and the mother and son smiled at each other and began to talk about their recent life and interesting things.
