I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 143 Not as Convincing as a Bowl of Egg Noodles
"Don't talk about it, I live a good life in this school cafeteria, why do I have to go back and face the empty room alone?"

Jia Dequan shook his right hand vigorously, and said with an unhappy face,

"Don't forget, I'm your father, not your son, why do you have to listen to your arrangements? I can do whatever I like, you don't care!"

"Oh dad! We don't want to control you, the main reason is that this place is too far away from home, even if you get closer, we won't say that we will stop you!"

Standing opposite Jia Dequan was a middle-aged man in his forties who was a little bit fat. His face was three points similar to that of Lao Jia, with a pair of rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his expression was a little anxious and helpless.

He raised his hand and scratched his hair vigorously, and continued,

"Now that you have traveled so far, the key is that your health is not very good. If something happens to you, we won't even be able to catch up!"

"What can I do? You stinky boy, wish I could get my hair up sooner?"

When Jia Dequan heard this, he suddenly became hairy again, and he said,
"I've already said, don't worry about it!

You guys, do what you should be busy with. I live here alone and no one is bothered. I can eat and drink well every day. I don’t know how happy I am! "

As he said that, he didn't bother to argue with his son, so he turned around and walked into the cafeteria.

"Hey, Dad! You are already quite old, can you stop being so childish?"

When Xiao Jia saw that his old man started acting like a rascal again, he was speechless, and hurriedly chased after him.
"Don't think about me, you have to think about our restaurant, right?
Now I have to be busy with the restaurant business all day long, and I have to worry about you, even if I split myself in half, I won't be able to do it! "

"You want to play tricks on me again, don't you?"

Jia Dequan turned his head and glared at his son, then sneered,
"I handed over the restaurant to you a few years ago, and it was agreed at the beginning that I would not interfere again, so you just gave up on that heart, even if you screwed it up, it's your business, I'm sure I won't care.

I'm already so old, I spent the first half of my life supporting my family and building up a family business. Isn't that all for you?
Why, now that you are over 40, you still want to gnaw on your father's old bones?

I tell you, no way!

For the remaining few years, I have to live a good life for myself, as happy as I am, and none of you want to interfere with me! "

"..."

While talking, the father and son got into the cafeteria.

It was already past lunch time, and there was still some time before dinner. The cafeteria hall was empty, and the students who came to line up had not come so early.

Only Chen Fugui and his part-time boys were left in the hall, still mopping the floor with a mop.

As for Jiang Yu, Lu Shuwu and the others, before Lao Jia and his son turned back to the cafeteria, they sneaked back into the kitchen.

You can't let the father and son find themselves waiting for someone to hide and eavesdrop, otherwise, it will be embarrassing to death.

Judd Quan walked through the cafeteria hall in a few steps, opened the door leading to the kitchen, and turned back to remind with a serious face:
"This is an important place for the kitchen, idlers are not allowed to enter!
You two, don't barge in. If someone beats you out, don't blame me for not reminding you! "

Xiao Jia and the middle-aged woman following him were startled, and subconsciously stopped.

But Jia Dequan ignored them, ran straight to the operating room, found a place and sat down, hid there and sulked.

Seeing Jia Dequan's unhappy face, Lu Shuwu quickly made a cup of tea and brought it over, and said with a smile:

"Old Jia, why are you so sullen? Come on, have a sip of hot tea and let your breath flow. No matter what happens, it won't affect your mood.

When you are in a bad mood, you will lose your appetite, and if you lose your appetite, others will eat the delicious food, thanks to that! "

"You can talk, boy! If my son is half as clever as you, I'll be thankful!"

Jia Dequan took a sip of the tea and couldn't help shaking his head.

Lu Shuwu smiled "hehe": "It's definitely not suitable for me to be your son, how about I call you a godfather?"

Jia Dequan quickly waved his hand and refused: "Don't! I'm still worried that Lao Lu will kill me from Tanzhou and make trouble for me!"

Lao Jia and Lu Shuwu were chatting in the kitchen. On the other side, Jiang Yu thought about it and walked out of the kitchen. At a glance, he saw Lao Jia's son and daughter-in-law guarding outside, looking around anxiously.

Jiang Yu opened the door and went out, met the doubtful eyes of Lao Jia's son, walked over, smiled and said:
"I'm Jiang Yu, the owner of this cafeteria. You are from Mr. Jia's family, right? What's your name?"

"You are Boss Xiao Jiang?"

Lao Jia's son was obviously a little surprised, but he quickly realized, and said quickly,
"My name is Jia Qianxin, and this is my daughter-in-law Yang Yeli.

Boss Xiaojiang, my dad is so good at running, he said he went downstairs for a walk, but he came to Jiangzhou in a blink of an eye, I was so scared that I thought something happened to him, and I searched for it for many days. I didn't find it.

If he hadn't held back later and called an old friend secretly, I didn't even know he came here alone, and even rented a house to live in!
This, this is really worrying! "

"Yeah, these days we don't even care about the business in the restaurant, just worry about what happened to him."

Yang Yeli also nodded, sighed and said,

"Tell me, at such an old age, can't you just stay at home? If you have to come out and run around, isn't this making trouble for us children?"

Jiang Yu didn't interrupt too much, and stood there quietly listening to their "complaints" with a faint smile on his face.

To put it bluntly, this is a matter between Jia Dequan and his son, and it is not easy for him as an outsider to intervene.

Of course, he didn't intend to intervene at first, he just wanted to see if he could find a compromise and let Comrade Jia stay here for a few more days.

When they were almost done talking, Jiang Yu raised his hand and said with a smile:

"Brother and sister-in-law, I see you have come all the way here without resting for a moment, you probably haven't eaten much at noon, right?
Are you hungry?Why don't you sit here for a while, and I'll go back to the kitchen and boil two bowls of noodles for you, fill your stomach first, and then we'll have a good chat when we're full. "

"Huh? This, wouldn't this be inappropriate?"

"No, no, wait a moment."

With that said, Jiang Yu turned around and went to the kitchen, took some dried noodles and two eggs, and it didn't take long for him to prepare two bowls of fragrant egg noodles and bring them out.

As soon as the egg noodles were put down, the steaming hot noodles mixed with the tempting aroma went straight to the nose, making Jia Qianxin's Adam's apple squirm up and down.

"Eat it quickly, the noodles will be lumpy when it gets cold."

As soon as Jiang Yu said something, Jia Qianxin and Yang Yeli couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed their chopsticks and started eating.

"Hey! This noodles are better than the old man's. They are smooth and chewy, and the soup is thick. It's really delicious!"

"Husband, this poached egg is also fried well. It's burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. It's crispy when you bite into it. The egg white inside is not old at all. Add it to the soup, it's full of flavor, it's delicious!"

"..."

"Hurrah! Hurrah!"

The couple sat there, burying their heads in eating for a while. After a while, they ate up two bowls of egg noodles, and even drank up the soup without a drop.

After eating the noodles, the two of them still had something to say, they licked their lips and looked at Jiang Yu, as if they wanted to have another bowl, but they were really embarrassed to speak again.

Jia Qianxin also seemed to understand something, shook his head, sighed and said:

"I said the old man refused to leave no matter what, I just ate such a bowl of noodles, and now even I am a bit reluctant to leave!"

"Brother Jia, you should be happy. The old man has worked so hard all his life. He finally found something he likes to eat, and he is happy here. It's better than locking himself at home and watching TV, right?"

Jiang Yu smiled and said,

"Besides, since he likes to eat the food I cook, he will definitely not run around like before. It's just a little far away from home. If you are really worried, you can come and see him at any time. No need Worried about not being able to find him.

He is willing to stay in one place for a long time, which is much better than him running around. After all, he is already so old, and running around is still very hard. "

"Husband, I think Boss Xiaojiang is right."

Jia Qianxin was still hesitating, but Yang Yeli reached out and poked her husband, and whispered,
"Let the old man stay here if he wants to. We can visit him anytime. Besides, this is a school, so there is no danger."

Jia Qianxin understood as soon as he heard it. His wife deliberately emphasized the word "at any time".

Doesn't this mean that she is also greedy for this bowl of noodles?

If the old man really went back with him, why would he have any reason to come to the Seventh Canteen to eat delicious food in the future?

well!After all, it is not as convincing as a bowl of egg noodles!

At this moment, Jia Qianxin already knew that he could not persuade the old man to go back with him.

After struggling for a while, he and Jiang Yu exchanged phone calls, and asked Jiang Yu to help take care of his father and call him in time.

After that, he hurried back with his wife Yang Yeli.

It's better to have Jiang Yu to help take care of him than to let his father run to an unfamiliar place and hide alone. Moreover, as long as he stays here, he and his wife can come and have a look whenever they have time.

The most important thing is that as long as you come here, you can have a delicious meal, what a great thing!
After finally sending Jia Qianxin and his wife away, Jiang Yu heaved a sigh of relief. After returning to the kitchen, he saw that Jia Dequan was still angry, like an old child, and couldn't help talking about it. Tell him again:
"Your son and daughter-in-law have already returned, Lao Jia, you don't have to be angry, they are really worried that it's not safe for you to stay here alone, they don't want to gnaw at the old man.

I've already made friends with him just now, as long as you don't run around, you can stay here, and it will save them from worrying all day long.

But don't worry, as long as they are free, they will still come to see you.

Speaking of which, your son and daughter-in-law are much stronger than many people! "

"They left? Don't ask me to follow them back?"

After hearing this, Jia Dequan's eyes lit up, and he stood up from his seat. He couldn't help showing a triumphant expression on his face, and whispered,

"Brat, he still has a little conscience!"
