pastoral wedding

Chapter 34
Su Shuang was reprimanded by Mrs. Liu because she didn't want a maid, and then she stopped talking. Mrs. Liu glanced at the remaining three, and pointed out one of them that would be better for needlework, knowing that she was good at needlework. I'm impatient with things at work, which is just right.The remaining two are for Su Tang. She is going to marry into the Han family. She can't do without a personal maid, and the maids of the Han family don't know whether to listen to her orders. Do they have to do things by themselves?That wouldn't make the Han family laugh anymore, it's better to have two close-fitting maids.

Ask the maids' names again, but they are all in a mess, they can be called anything. The second girl is very popular, and the Liu family thinks it's ugly, so she gave them four simple names. Su Tang's two maids, one is spring, and the other is late summer. , Su Shuang's is Qiuliang, and Su Jin's maid is called Dongmei, Su Jin is not happy, Dongmei is too earthy, so she simply changed her name to Dongzhi.

Liu Ya'er looked envious for a while, Liu Shi looked at it and smiled and said to buy two more maids for Ya'er, Jiang Shi was so frightened that she hurriedly shied away, the situation in their family couldn't even afford to support themselves, Brother Yi even It's too ridiculous to have a daughter-in-law without mentioning it, and still have a maid.

The sisters of the Su family led the maids to continue working, and the efficiency of these four people's work has increased significantly. By noon, they were already busy. It happened that Mrs. Zeng came over from the kitchen to say that the food was ready and asked where it was placed. , everyone just paid off their work, talked and laughed, and went to eat.

Su Wenshan's family and Liu Shumin's family sat around the table. Mrs. Zeng brought four maids and began to arrange the food. Su Jin tasted them one by one, and couldn't help but her eyes lit up. It's really a good skill. It's strange that someone framed it. Such an honest couple with such good craftsmanship should not be excluded.

The others praised it again and again after tasting it, thinking that Mu Lin and his wife deserved to be chefs, and the business of the restaurant would definitely be very good.

After dinner, there are still things to do. First of all, there is a notice posted at the door. Naturally, the waiter is recruited. The restaurant in front and the inn in the back need manpower, so more people need to be recruited.Jiang's face was a little unnatural when she saw it, and Liu asked when she saw it, and she asked hesitantly if she could let brother Yi come to run errands.Mrs. Liu laughed out loud when she heard the words, took Jiang's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, you really are asking me such a thing. We recruited a waiter from the shop. What is Brother Yi doing?"

When Jiang heard the words, she thought it was a failure, so she forced a smile on her face, "If it doesn't work, it won't work. I'll ask Brother Yi to find another job."

Mrs. Liu pushed her lightly, "What are you thinking? Our third girl said that she wants to let brother Yi be the accountant. She said that her father can't read, and she doesn't feel at ease looking for outsiders. It's just right to find her cousin Yi."

Jiang's hanging heart suddenly let go, and it would be nice if he could give brother Yi a job, "This kid is sure to work hard, so don't worry if you leave it to him." Thinking of her son, she couldn't help sighing, "Brother Yi is a good boy. All the teenagers in the village at this age are married, but he hasn't even settled on a marriage. It's because our family is poor that it hurts him."

"Don't worry, brother Yi is a good boy, he will definitely be successful, and I'm afraid he won't be able to find a wife." Liu Shi wanted to talk about lending her money, but thinking of her elder brother's temper, she decided to forget it. He was very angry, if he wanted to say so bluntly that he would lend him money, he would never enter his house again.

After a whole day of busy work, the work in the shop is finally finished. Thinking that the opening will be opened in a few days, the Su family is very excited, and they don't feel tired at all.In the evening, when most of the shops on the street were closed, they remembered a very serious matter.They can't take the Mulin couple and these four maids back. First, doing so is too eye-catching and will cause gossip. Maybe they will say that their family was established by relying on the betrothal gifts of the Han family; A broken yard can't accommodate so many people; three things, when a restaurant opens in the future, it's not a problem to run back and forth all the time, so buying another yard near the restaurant in the town has become the general trend.

"You sisters don't go back tonight." Mrs. Liu gave the order bluntly, "Live in the backyard first, and let's go to the yard tomorrow. Mulin and you two can live in the shop and look after the shop. .”

Mu Lin and his wife agreed that they would live wherever the host asked them to live, not to mention that the Liu family had already vacated a room for them in the backyard, and it had already been tidied up, so they could have a room of their own. The couple are already very grateful.

"That's not allowed." Jiang was born to object, "It's not safe for the three of them to live here."

Liu Shumin simply waved his hand, "Let brother Yi live here to accompany them, and let him go back and tidy up the bedding before you open."

As soon as he opened his mouth, no one dared to speak, only Liu Ya'er said softly: "Father, mother, I also want to stay and help."

Mrs. Jiang disagreed, "Not this time. Didn't Aunt Wang next door say that she wants you to meet her nephew? You go back first, and when the restaurant opens and gets busy, you will never stop me if you want to help. "

"Mother, I don't want to see you." Liu Ya'er lowered her head awkwardly and rubbed her fingers.

"Auntie, are you too impatient?" Su Jin and Liu Ya'er are the same age, and they have always had the best relationship. Hearing this, she stepped forward and joked, "How old is Ya'er, so you let her go on a blind date." .”

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu pulled Ya'er and hugged her in her arms, "That's right, my Ya'er is growing so well, what are you worried about, but Ya'er listens to your mother, go back first today, your sisters live in There's no way here, I can't live at home, I'm still worried about this, I can't keep you anymore, when my aunt finds a suitable yard, I will definitely pick you up and live with your sisters for a few days."

"Auntie, is it true?" Liu Ya'er laughed immediately, she is the only girl in her family, and it is boring to be with her mother all day long, it is better to stay here with the aunt, the older sisters are nice to her She is also enthusiastic. She was very happy when she heard that she was going to her aunt's house since she was a child, and her mother said that she was cast in the wrong baby and should be cast into her aunt's belly.

Mrs. Liu nodded, "When did my aunt lie to you?" After she finished speaking, she looked at Su Jin, "Did your elder sister finish the clothes that mother made for Ya'er a few days ago? Take them back to Ya'er."

"Mother," Su Jin couldn't help laughing, "Elder Sister is ready, I saw it, but it's not at home, where can I get it?"

When Liu heard this, she smiled and patted her forehead, "Auntie is an idiot." She also said that she would give her some new clothes when she was picked up, so Liu Ya'er happily followed her parents back home .

Liu Yi laughed and said, "It's strange that my mother always said that my sister was born in the wrong baby, and she should be cast in my aunt's belly." Everyone laughed, and after laughing, they wentssip for a while, and Su Wenshan chased Liu Shi away. Back to Liushu Village with the ox cart.

After dinner in the evening, everyone went to their own business, Su Shuang took Qiu Liang to the eldest sister's house to help her make the dowry.Taking advantage of her free time, Su Jin took Dongzhi to the kitchen. Mu Lin and Mrs. Zeng were cleaning, and when they saw her coming, they all bent down and stood up, "Hi, Miss San."

Su Jin was not used to it, so she smiled and said, "Uncle Mu, Aunt Zeng, you don't have to do this, our small family doesn't like this."

Mu Lin rubbed his hands honestly and laughed, "I don't know what order the third girl came here for?"

"I don't dare to order." Su Jin smiled back, "I just know a few recipes, and I want to discuss them with Uncle Mu and Aunt Zeng." She wants to tell them a few recipes from her previous life that she knows, which can be used as special dishes of the restaurant to attract guests.

"Recipe?" Mu Lin looked at her in surprise, "Let's hear it, girl."

Su Jin told him how to choose a few dishes that she thought tasted good, and Mu Lin tried to make them, and the taste was really unique. After making several dishes in a row, Zeng and Dongzhi all said tasty.Su Jin was relieved now, and asked him to practice more, then went out of the kitchen to find her cousin Yi, and beside her Dongzhi was carrying a small basket, in which was a plate of purple taro rolls made by Mulin, and a Plate of green tea cakes.

Liu Yi is practicing abacus in the room at the moment. He has learned it before, but if he doesn't practice for a long time, he is afraid that he will forget it, so he takes it out to practice his hands when he has time.

"Cousin Yi." Su Jin knocked on the door.

When Liu Yi heard it, he went up to open the door, and when he saw her, he smiled and said, "Haven't you rested yet? You should rest early after you've been tired all day."

"My cousin hasn't slept yet." Su Zhen jumped over the threshold playfully, and walked to the table to ask Dongzhi to take out the dessert, "This is made by Uncle Mu. I tasted it and it was good. Cousin will also try it." .”

Liu Yi wanted to say that he doesn't like sweets very much, but thinking that his uncle loves sweets, Cousin Jin might not have imagined that there are few men who love sweets, so she couldn't bear to refuse her kindness, so she picked it up and tasted it. He has another level of confidence in the future of the restaurant.

"Cousin, I'm here to ask you to write a menu for me." Su Jin took out a few pages of paper from her sleeve as she spoke. The handwriting on it was very delicate, and it looked like it was written by a woman.

"Menu?" Liu Yi didn't understand.

"I think our restaurant can't cook the same meals for morning, noon, and evening. In the morning, we only prepare four kinds of rice porridge, millet porridge, pumpkin porridge, and black rice porridge, plus a few seasonal side dishes, and a few other dishes. Pickles; steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, and oil cakes are all ready; at noon, it is naturally the same stir-fried vegetables as other houses; at night, it is mainly pots, with less stir-fried vegetables, and even if there are some cold dishes and desserts, there is also wine. It is natural to write clearly which ones are only coming, so that guests can order by looking at the list when they come.

This is a good idea. Liu Yi took the list and looked at it. There were quite a few new terms in it, and there were many dishes he had never eaten before. "It needs to be written in a big way, and when it is written, it will be framed and hung in the lobby."

"Cousin Yi is really amazing, you will understand as soon as I tell you." Su Jin smiled and stood up, "Then cousin is busy, so I will go back first."

Liu Yi sent her to the door, looked at her figure and shook his head with a smile. This cousin has so many tricks, he has never seen such a smart girl.
