After regaining my luck, I became a boss in the 80s
Chapter 265 Sour Plum Soup
"Royal chef?!"
Pan Jie couldn't close her mouth in surprise, and the look of admiration on her face became even stronger, "It's so amazing!"
"No wonder your cooking is so delicious!"
Gu Qiaoxi smiled and joked with her, "My delicious cooking has nothing to do with the imperial chef. It's because I have talent!"
Pan Jie couldn't help but giggle and looked at Gu Qiaoxi like a little girl, "You're right, Qiao Xi, you are the best!"
It will take time to verify whether Mr. Pan has really recovered from his illness. No one will bother him for a short time.
The weather is getting hotter, so Gu Qiaoxi has improved the menu a lot, including a lot of cold dishes and cold noodles. She also prepared some ingredients to make sour plum soup this weekend.
Black plum, hawthorn, tangerine peel, licorice, dried mulberry, osmanthus...
The sour plum soup of later generations was highly commercialized, but most of it was blended and not tasty. Gu Qiaoxi’s sour plum soup was learned from a master during a fast-traveling trip. It is brewed using ancient methods and is sour and sweet, especially Relieve summer heat.
The first time I cooked it, I just wanted to taste it to the store staff, but I didn’t expect that someone looked at me as soon as I took it out of the refrigerator.
"Is this... sour plum soup?"
It is a thirty-year-old woman named Jiang who has been coming to the store these days.
I live in a nearby community, so I accidentally came to eat at their restaurant. I was attracted and have been coming here every day for the past few days.
"It's sour plum soup. Aunt Jiang has good eyesight!"
Gu Qiaoxi smiled and nodded.
She had just taken it out of the refrigerator and was about to taste it, but she was seen unexpectedly.
"How much? Give me a drink!"
Ms. Jiang's eyes gleamed when she looked at the sour plum soup. She was still holding the cup in her hand, so she just found a place and poured the water in the cup quickly, "Just put it in this cup for me!"
Gu Qiaoxi was dumbfounded by her straightforward action.
Ms. Jiang is a capable person and extremely neat, otherwise she would not have poured the water in the cup before she could stop her.
She did not refuse, took Ms. Jiang's cup, and filled her with sour plum soup while saying: "Aunt Jiang happened to be lucky. It's the first time I made it today. I just wanted to let the employees in the store taste it first. I didn't plan to sell it. Aunt Jiang Since you like it, I’ll pack some for you and taste it, no charge.”
"That won't work. I'll give you whatever you want!"
Ms. Jiang was not one to take advantage, so she immediately waved her hand and refused.
Gu Qiaoxi laughed again, "Aunt Jiang, you bought it without even tasting it, and you weren't afraid that it tasted bad. You were fooled. To tell you the truth, I haven't tasted it either!"
"If you cheat me, that's mine too!"
Ms. Jiang patted her chest and didn't care about it at all. "After eating so many dishes in your store, can I still believe the taste of it?"
As Ms. Jiang spoke, she recalled the past and couldn't help but sigh: "I was really hungry for this sour plum soup, so that's why I spoke!"
"My hometown is in Kyoto. Although it is in the countryside, it is also at the foot of the emperor. The person who married into our family moved here. It has been many years. Every time I rush home, it is mostly during the Chinese New Year. At that time, I couldn’t even drink the sour plum soup!”
"Then I can't even charge you!"
Gu Qiaoxi also shook her head again, "Aunt Jiang, you must have been drinking it since you were a child, and you know the taste best. I also expect you to give me some opinions after drinking it. How dare you charge money?"
"Aunt Jiang, try it quickly and see if the sour plum soup I made tastes right?"
Ms. Jiang was amused, but when Gu Qiaoxi said this, she didn't mention collecting money anymore. She took her cup and took a sip.
The sweet and sour taste, with a hint of osmanthus aroma, made her sigh with satisfaction after drinking it. "Cool!"
Ms. Jiang slapped her thigh heavily and couldn't help but feel excited, "It's so refreshing. It's so refreshing. This sour plum soup is still ice-cold. It tastes exactly like the one I've had before."
Ms. Jiang was very excited because of the sour plum soup. She held the cup and started talking to Gu Qiaoxi, "When I was a kid, I drank sour plum soup. When it was too hot, I put it in the well to chill for a while and then took it out to drink. This is the taste!"
"Oh, after all these years, I've finally gotten this sour plum soup!"
Ms. Jiang said, tears actually appeared in her eyes.
She is an extremely tough-tempered person. When she first got married, her parents opposed it, but she got married as always. After marrying so far away, it was difficult to even go home, but she never said a word about hardship or tiredness.
And she was married to the right person, with a loving husband and filial children.
But the bitterness of so many years was brought back by this bowl of sour plum soup.
She was married so far away, but she missed home, but she couldn't return home even if she had one.
Gu Qiaoxi watched silently and said nothing, while Ms. Jiang was just weak for a moment, quickly wiped away her tears and put a smile on her face.
"This is how you sell your sour plum soup. That's right!"
And soon, he asked again: "Boss Gu, your skills are really amazing, you can even do this!"
Ms. Jiang gave a thumbs up and was full of praise for Gu Qiaoxi.
Gu Qiaoxi no longer concealed the fact that she was the owner of the restaurant, which resulted in the regular customers who came to the restaurant basically knew that she was the owner of the restaurant. After a series of questions, they all raised their eyebrows at her no matter what they ate. Thumbs up.
Gu Qiaoxi was bottling sour plum soup. Hearing this, she curved her lips and said, "Aunt Jiang was so complimentary. It's not difficult to make sour plum soup!"
Ms. Jiang shook her head like a rattle, "It's not like I haven't cooked before, so how could I not know? Boss Gu's hands are so skillful..."
Gu Qiaoxi accepted a series of compliments, packed the meals that Ms. Jiang needed to pack, and sent her out of the hotel.
Ms. Jiang is holding a lunch box in one hand and a cup in the other, but that cup is precious!
After returning home, she put the lunch box on the table and put her cup in her room.
She planned to drink this sour plum soup herself.
Ms. Jiang put it away and went to the kitchen to cook.
Naturally, it is impossible for everyone in a family to eat in a restaurant. She packed up two meat dishes and fried two vegetarian dishes, and the family's meals were ready.
The restaurant also brought packed meals, and the rice was free. She bought two meat dishes, so of course the meal was also delivered.
Ms. Jiang didn't say how many people were eating at first. After all, she only bought two dishes and asked the people in the store to prepare meals for several people, which she couldn't do.
However, this restaurant is really grand. When I was serving dinner, I specifically asked several people in the family how many meals were served. This was always the case, even if someone else was serving the meal.
It's no wonder that a restaurant like this has such good business.
While she was cooking, Ms. Jiang's husband came back with his children. Before he even entered the door, he heard several people laughing.
"Wash your hands and get ready to eat!"
Ms. Jiang said this without even showing her head.
