The story of a cook

Chapter 256 Buying a Motorcycle for My Brother-in-law

The second child bought a mobile phone, Nokia 3310, for 100 yuan.

After the second child bought it, he said to me: "The third child, you also bought one, and the fourth child also bought one, so you have to make one too."

I said, "Look, you still have to support your family."

Zhang Jun said: "Master Tan, you really should buy one. You are the boss of the kitchen now, so you have to have a mobile phone to make it look good."

Zhao Gang said: "Master, let's buy one, it only costs more than 1000 yuan, and it is convenient to make calls."

I said, "Think about it."

Zhou Ming said: "Brother Tan, you really should buy a mobile phone. It will be convenient for us to call back if you buy it, and it will save you having to travel a long way to answer the call."

I said, "Okay, then buy one."

When I got home, I told Lin Yan about buying a mobile phone. Lin Yan said, "Old Tan, buy one. It doesn't look good if you don't have it. Besides, the mobile phone is something you are using. Buy one."

Seeing that Lin Yan also agreed, I asked my second child to help me buy a mobile phone, which was a Nokia 3310 just like his.It is indeed much more convenient to make a phone call after having a mobile phone, and there is no need to look for a phone everywhere to return a paging.Although the mobile phones at that time did not have these functions like the current mobile phones, they could only make and receive calls and send text messages, but I still think that the mobile phones at that time were good, at least there would be no such thing as drinking at a party and neglecting to drink because of playing with the mobile phone.The functions of mobile phones nowadays are too powerful, so powerful that you can not use your mobile phone without eating. You have to hold your mobile phone even to go to the toilet, otherwise you will not be called to the toilet.

It has been more than two months since I came to Heyuxuan, and I have almost lost contact with the outside world.

I've been busy with the restaurant business, so I don't have time to go out.

During this period, I talked with Master Chen on the phone. He has been working in a restaurant in Dadong and is very stable.The fourth child is still working in Shengmei, so he is probably coming down soon.Wang Xiaodong is in Dadong, Li Changqing is in Xiaoheyan, senior brother Zhang Tao no longer works at his original place, and works not far from his home, which is a restaurant opened by his classmate.Master still went to his house to pay New Year's greetings to him during Chinese New Year, but he hasn't been there since. It is estimated that this season will start fishing again.

The restaurant business has stabilized at more than 70.00, and customers are very appreciative of new dishes, smoked flavors, and chilled small seafood, and the attendance rate has reached [-]%.The dumplings have been adjusted accordingly, and now they are all finalized. The six kinds of filling dumplings are selling very well, especially the three delicacies filling and pickled cabbage filling, which have been recognized by many customers, and other dumpling restaurants have come to learn, explaining The adjustment of the dumplings was a success.

Boss Cao's lover came once in June.

Since coming to He Yuxuan, he has never seen Boss Cao's lover, and this is the first time he has seen him.

Boss Cao's lover is tall, with a sharp face, and looks widowed, that is, a very mean kind.It is said that her family is very powerful, and Boss Cao developed by relying on his wife's strength.

Boss Cao's lover didn't say anything when he came, just went into the kitchen to have a look, ate a fish head and mashed potatoes, told Boss Cao that the taste was okay, and then left.

For some reason, seeing Boss Cao's lover felt very uncomfortable. I couldn't explain the discomfort, it was just uncomfortable.

It seems to be similar to what people often say about "off-face". Looking at Boss Cao's wife, I feel that I am "off-face" with her.

When I got home, I told Lin Yan about seeing Boss Cao's lover. Lin Yan said, "Boss Cao is afraid of his wife, so he listens to his wife for many things."

I said, "Really? If so, his family's work will be a bit difficult."

Lin Yan said: "Isn't his daughter-in-law not in the restaurant? She has a job, and her job is quite good. She is also a leader in the unit. She doesn't go to the restaurant very much. It was the same in Turtle City. It's not bad to go there every two or three months. .”

I said, "Looking at her makes me feel uncomfortable, I don't feel good about it, I'm having trouble with her."

"You don't need to worry about her, we will do our own work." Lin Yan said: "We will do it if we need it, and we will withdraw if we don't need it. It's not about making money."

I said, "That's right, it's just that this kitchen has put a lot of effort into building it, and I'm reluctant to quit."

Lin Yan said: "Didn't his wife say nothing? There's no use worrying about that."

I said, "I'm not worried, I just feel uncomfortable."

Lin Yan said: "You, Old Tan, you can figure it out on your own if you have nothing to do, don't worry about it."

I said, "It's annoying."

"It's useless to think too much." Lin Yan said, "Let me tell you, Zhihao has finished his driver's license and is planning to buy a motorcycle."

"Buy it, buy it if you have money." I asked, "Is it necessary to buy a motorcycle?"

Lin Yan said: "We all have motorcycles with him on the street, and he doesn't look good without one."

I said, "Why, you can't be a daughter-in-law without a motorcycle,"

Lin Yan glanced at me, apparently very angry at what I said.

I went on to say, "I'm not against him buying a motorcycle. I don't think it's the right time to buy it until he gets engaged."

Lin Yan said: "Zhihao said to buy a second-hand bike first, because you don't have the money to buy a new one."

As soon as Lin Yan said to buy second-hand ones, I thought of the National Day. Now the National Day should have passed the driver's license test and started driving.

I said, "Second-hand ones, can big boats work? If so, give Zhihao the National Day ones."

Lin Yan said: "Can someone sell it for the National Day? What would he ride if he sells it?"

I said, "Now the national day is for his uncle, and his uncle told him to drive, so what kind of motorcycle does he drive?"

Lin Yan said: "It's really okay, you can ask National Day, if he doesn't ride, he will sell it to Zhihao."

I said, "You'd better ask Zhihao if big boats are okay, in case he doesn't like big boats."

Lin Yan said: "Then I'll call him tomorrow and see if he wants to, and you can also ask about National Day."

I said, "OK, I'll ask tomorrow."

I don’t think it is necessary for Zhihao to buy a motorcycle. We know what our family is like. It’s not the time to ride a motorcycle. Riding a bicycle is the same as going on the road. There is no need to compare with others.

I really don't know what they were thinking.

When she was about to go to sleep, Lin Yan said, "Old Tan, there is someone next door to our house."

I asked, "Anyone rented it?"

Lin Yan said: "No, it's assigned to a family of three in the factory."

I said, "Really, depending on how good they work in the factory, they will be given a house. When will the Communist Party give me a house?"

Lin Yan said: "Don't think about dividing the house for the rest of your life."

"Hey, work hard to earn money and try to buy a house as soon as possible—" I said.

"Today I saw a woman bring a little girl over to clean up the house. I asked them if they were renting a house. They said no, and said that the house would be theirs from now on." Lin Yan said enviously.

I said, "That's good, because the unit gave them the house."

Lin Yan said: "That little girl is really fun. She is three years old and her name is also He He. She has the same name as her second sister's little He He."

I said, "Really, there are quite a lot of people named He He."

Lin Yan said: "When their family moves in, our building will be full of people."

I said, "No, it's all full."

Although I don’t approve of Tong Hao’s purchase of motorcycles, I have to deal with the matter after I have said it. I called Guoqing the next day. Guoqing said that he started driving now and kept the motorcycle at home. I asked him if he could sell it. He asked, "What's up, third child, do you want to buy it?"

I said, "I don't want to buy it, but my brother-in-law wants to."

Guo Qing said: "I still think about whether you want to buy it. If you can't buy it, just take it and ride it."

I said, "I don't know how to ride. Besides, I don't like it. Riding it is worse than riding my [-]th bar. It's even good for exercise. Motorcycles are not allowed in the city now."

Guoqing said, "Yes, we won't allow you to ride." Then he said, "Your brother-in-law wants to buy it, give me some money."

What's the matter, what's the matter, I feel comfortable to be able to say this on National Day.But relatives are relatives and wealth is wealth, and brothers still settle accounts clearly, and everything has to have a price.

Human affection is human affection, and money is two different things.

I said, "Tell me the number."

Guo Qing said: "You can just give it as you see it. They are all buddies. How much more can you ask for?"

I said, "Don't you have to count it?"

National Day said: "Give me a thousand, okay?"

I said, "Okay, if my brother-in-law wants one at that time, I can ride directly to your house."

Guo Qing said: "Okay, call me when the time comes."

Just after talking with National Day here, Lin Yan called over there, saying that Zhihao wanted a big boat for National Day, and I told him to come and ride, anytime.

The next day Zhihao came over and rode away the National Day boat, of course it was the money given by Lin Yan.

I told Lin Yan that I still rode [-] big bars, and you bought a big boat for your brother, which is a bit unreasonable.

Lin Yan didn't say anything, she seemed a little annoyed.

If you are angry, just be angry, just talk, if you don't talk, you will feel unhappy.

At that time, my heart was not very balanced. Lin Yan always took care of the family. Our family had no savings, and she even bought motorcycles for his brother. No one would be angry about this matter.

I mean just talk and finish. When I get to the restaurant, I forget everything and get back to work soon.
