Tongzhuang

I only found out later that since Ji Liang and I were going to pay the bill smoothly, Tongzhuang lost a lot this year, unprecedentedly big.It's not about how much money you lost, but how much face you lost.

I also know that they dare not mess with Biyao Palace, of course they will come to us to find bad luck.Pooh, it's not a thing to bully the weak and fear the strong!I recalled the situation that day, and I did not know how many times I cursed inwardly.

The shopkeeper ran to the kitchen several times, urging me to go back every time.I said, "It's fine to go back, you can change the name of Piaoxianglou back."

"How can I do that?" He shouted, shaking his head resolutely, "This signboard is just like you, it is our lucky treasure! Han Chun, don't even think about it."

I was so angry that I couldn't speak, and angrily threw a piece of firewood into the stove, and sparks shot out.

"What's wrong with Zhongyi Building?" He softened his tone and put on a smile, "You are not afraid of hardships, and you have to pay from Tongzhuang. You are a loyal person in the first place, what's wrong..."

"You still mention it!" I was so angry that I didn't care that he was in charge of my wages, so I drove him out, "Let's go!"

The shopkeeper changed his face, "Han Chun, you... well, it's okay if you don't go, the salary can only be paid according to the fire, if you want to take the big man's money, it's a dream!"

"You promised me five taels of silver if you want to return the account, but you haven't paid it yet."

"You—" he was about to yell, opened his mouth to inhale the smoke, choked a few times, and quickly covered his nose with his sleeve, "cough cough... well, just follow everyone's calculations, isn't it okay? You think about it again, As long as you are willing to go back to the waiter, I will add..."

"Get out!" I chased him out of the smoky kitchen.

I don't care if I'm a big guy or not, and neither does the salary. I'm all alone, and it's enough to eat.Although the anger in the chest is hard to dissipate, it is worth it to think that our Piaoxiang Building can finally be kept, even more prosperous than before.

--------------------------------

On this day, the shopkeeper came again, with a smiling face as usual. "I'll apologize to you about the signboard."

I was overjoyed: "Are you willing to change?"

"Haha... I'll talk about this later..." He smiled more attentively, "Han Chun, don't be angry, go upstairs... just once, okay? Look at my old face..."

"You tell others to watch!" I was greatly disappointed, replaced by resentment.

"Just take it as me begging you!" The shopkeeper wailed, "The customer asked you to serve us by name... We can't offend this customer, so just go once, okay?"

I subconsciously thought of Tongzhuang, "Is it the group from last time?"

The shopkeeper was obviously taken aback, "Ah...ah no, no..."

I stared at him warily, "Really?"

The shopkeeper swears by it. "Of course not! Don't worry, it's absolutely not!" He said again: "Han Chun, just go there!"

If he is in such a difficult situation, he must have a difficult guest. If he really wants to offend him, I'm afraid our Piaoxiang Building will not be peaceful.I nodded, "Okay, I'll go."

As soon as I got in front of the guests at that table, I regretted it, and I was shocked and regretted it—the vermilion clothes, the proud demeanor, who else would it be if it was not Qi Feng? !

Looking to the side, the shopkeeper disappeared.A sound came into my head, damn old fox!

Different from last time, Qi Feng was alone this time.He looked at me impatiently, "Why so slow?"

Before I could answer, he frowned again, not hiding the disgust in his eyes, "Go and wash your face! It's so dirty, do you want to lose your appetite?"

I remembered that I had just finished burning the fire and ran upstairs with soot all over my face. I couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and turned around and hurried to find water to wash my face.

When I took a photo in the bucket, my face was really black and dirty, as if I had just crawled out of the ashes.After washing my face and coming back, Qi Feng glanced at me, still dissatisfied, "Washing my face is so slow." I knew he was picking on me, so I could only agree: "I'm sorry, Master Qi. sorry.

Tolerate!Now is not the time to settle accounts with the old fox!If you agree to serve, you have to serve well, and it's not too late to send the plague god away! "Small one, I will definitely correct myself next time. What kind of dishes will Master Qi bring?"

Qi Feng randomly selected a few items, and stopped me when I was about to leave, "Come up all within a quarter of an hour."

I am surprised.During the meal time, there were many people in the building, the guests were crowded, and everyone was waiting. "I'm afraid..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" His eyes turned cold.

It was useless to argue, I gritted my teeth, picked up the list and ran to the kitchen.

When Master Zheng heard my words, he really disagreed, "How can that be done! First come, first served, this is the rule. There are more than a dozen dishes ahead, so I will cook for him first? The guests outside urged me several times, and only this one is the master. ?”

I begged and begged, and then I told how Qi Feng couldn't be provoked, "...the book also said that it is better to betray a gentleman than a villain. If you offend him, I am afraid we will not have a good life in the building!" It was because I offended him that I was repeatedly bullied.

Tongzhuang lost face, Qi Feng just came to vent his anger; when he got bored, naturally he would not come again.It's not good to be head-to-head. A person like Qi Feng can do anything, and then the building will really suffer.I just beg for mercy.

Seeing how pitiful I am, Master Zheng finally agrees.The dishes are coming out one by one, and I think it will be a quarter of an hour. While helping Master Zheng, I asked the waiter A Feng to bring out the finished dishes first.

Filled a large bowl of fish soup, carefully moved it to the tray, and was about to take it out.Ah Feng came back, and the two dishes in his hand remained intact.

He looked at me with embarrassment: "Qi Zhuang wants you to serve..."

Qi Feng!I tightened my hand holding the plate, paused for a while, and said to A Feng: "You put it here, I'll do it."

Ah Feng gave me a sympathetic look, put down two dishes and went out.

Eat, eat, eat, I'll salt you to death!I picked up a jar of salt and prepared to fall down, so I could see the expression on that kid drinking the soup, believe me, I couldn't let it out!

I raised my hand and stopped in mid-air, and I hesitated again. ...Forget it, he is no longer a thing, but also our guest, how could I do such a thing?Isn't it the same as him?Laughing at myself, I put down the salt shaker, picked up the soup and walked upstairs quickly.

After that, I went back and forth twice like desperately, and finally the dishes were served.

I put a small bowl of soup on the table as usual, "Master Qi, use it slowly."

"stop."

"Is there any order?"

"You," his beautiful and slightly feminine eyes swept over me unpredictably, pointing to the soup bowl on the table, "drink."

"Huh? The little one is just a buddy, there is no such rule..."

"Drink." He cut off my words coldly, "...so you don't have to mess with it."

I was speechless.The surname Qi judges others by himself, he is insidious and despicable, thinking that the world is as insidious and despicable as him!I came to the table, picked up the bowl and drank it. The fish soup was still hot, which caused a burning pain in my mouth; The chopsticks also stuffed the fish pieces inside into the mouth.

I lit the bottom of the bowl, "Master Qi, the soup is good, can you believe it?" I was secretly glad that there was no impulse in the kitchen just now.Qi Feng really has a lot of eyes.

He looked at me and said, "I'll drink a bowl."

I was just about to scoop, but he stopped me. "Who told you to use this? Get another one."

I am a little ashamed.It was my negligence. How can the bowl I drank be given to the guests?What's more, this "guest" is still Qi Feng, he looks down on me from the bottom of his heart, and even more loathes me.

I brought another small bowl and made another bowl of soup, thinking I could finally quit, Qi Feng asked again: "Will you serve me?"

I didn't know what was wrong and looked at him puzzled.

He glanced at the bowl of soup.

I'm not his subordinate, and I haven't reached the point where I can understand him with just a wink, so I can only ask, "What else can I order?"

He frowned, as if he couldn't bear my stupidity, "Blow me cold! Is it so hot that I can drink it?"

And this one?No tavern clerk ever did it!Fortunately, it is not difficult.Since he said it, it doesn't matter if I follow suit.I picked up the bowl and blew it slowly, the soup noodles rippled in circles.

This young master must be used to being served by others in Tongzhuang, and he has to ask others to do everything for him. Will he still need me to feed him later?

Hmph, it's better for me to drink the soup for him, that will save trouble!

Just as I was thinking, he had already glared at me, "Okay! How long are you going to blow it? Let me blow it to the cold? Will you blow it?"

Only then did I realize that the soup in my hand had become warm, and it would be cold if I blew it on. Even now, it was not very palatable, no wonder Qi Feng yelled at me.I'm really not very good at serving people, but I've never done such a delicate job before!

I had to apologize again.

Qi Feng snorted, but didn't ask me to do it all over again, took the bowl and started to drink.His posture for drinking soup is quite gentle, unhurried, and quiet, probably because of his upbringing from a wealthy family.I couldn't help but think of the benevolent and trustworthy old owner Qi that Ah Fu said, and wondered how he would feel when he saw his son behave like this in the spirit of heaven.

"Hello." My second distraction was awakened by Qi Feng, who pointed at a dish with chopsticks, "You eat."

I didn't say anything else, and continued to "test the poison".

This dish of crispy crab roe rolls really lived up to its reputation, delicious and crispy, full of fragrance, no wonder customers ordered other dishes and leftovers, this dish has never been leftover.I tasted it for the first time.So delicious!I just couldn't bear to swallow it.

"Sit down." Qi Feng raised his chin to the side.

I was surprised, Qi Feng said impatiently, "I don't want to keep looking up at people. Sit down."

right!Knowing that you look up at me and feel uncomfortable, it is better for me to squat on the ground, lie at your feet, and let you look down!I kept silent, pulled a chair and sat down.

There has never been a practice for a guy to sit at the same table with a customer. After all, I was uncomfortable. After sitting for a while, I pushed the crab roe roll in front of him.

He took a chopstick, raised his eyebrows and looked at me arrogantly, and said, "Do you want me to eat what you have eaten?" Pushing the plate back, "Eat it by yourself."

There is a feeling in my heart, this feeling is different from the humiliation last time, but it seems to be a little more uncomfortable than it.Like a thorn in my body, longing to stand up and leave this table.

Qi Feng glanced at me, pointed at the chopsticks: "Eat."

I looked at the fragrant smoked duck.This time I learned to be smart. I took another pair of chopsticks and put them in the bowl before eating.

Qi Feng casually ate a piece too.He raised his eyebrows at me while eating, "Go ahead."

When I saw that there were still four or five dishes left, I felt tightness in my chest. Why did Qi Feng order so much by himself?

After eating a few chopsticks, Qi Feng didn't make things difficult for me. My appetite gradually improved, and I devoured the plate of crab roe rolls.

Qi Feng said: "Is it delicious?"

I nodded: "It's delicious." Master Zheng's craftsmanship has never been mentioned, and it has always been the signature of Piaoxianglou.

"It seems that you are not doing well here?"

I could hear his voice, "Fortunately... the little one has no other skills, only doing odd jobs."

"Where's the good?"

"...Fortunately, I have something to eat, and the shopkeeper is nice to me." I told the truth.

"It's just these?" Qi Feng looked at me and raised a mocking smile, "Is it because of the sign of loyalty that you are willing to work hard?"

My chest swelled, and my blood surged up. The word "loyalty" has become a heart problem for me, and I will say it as soon as I mention it.Facing his malicious gaze, I knew that the defense would only make him continue to ridicule, so I endured it for a while and said, "Master Qi thinks so, then let it be!"

Qi Feng's face darkened.

He coldly handed me the half bowl of soup left in his hand.

I don't know what it means, "You want to..."

"Will you serve me?" He glanced at me impatiently, "It's cold! How can I drink it?"

"I'll give you another bowl." I said hastily.

"No, I want this bowl!"

I knew his temper of finding fault, so I said, "Then, I'll warm it up for you."

"Need not!"

"That……"

He stared at me coldly, raised his jaw, "Blow it up for me."

……

Nearly an hour later, this "distinguished guest" finally finished serving him.I packed my things and went downstairs, but the oncoming guys didn't dare to come forward to say hello to me.I also know how ugly my face is now.

Walking quickly to the kitchen, I saw the shopkeeper hiding by the pillar, about to flash past me, so I took a step ahead and stopped him. "...Isn't he the one from last time? Tell me no!" I gritted my teeth and glared at him.Qi Feng's appearance is very eye-catching, and I will never forget it once I see it. I don't believe that the shopkeeper will be so old and dizzy.

The shopkeeper grinned, and his two mustaches trembled. "You're asking about the group of people last time, and there's only one of them, so it's not the group of people last time."

It took me a lot of effort to hold back the leftover soup bowl in my hand from hitting him in the face.
