sleepless tonight

Chapter 81
Liu Yuan is very pitiful.

In the bleak night, the hazy light, and the occasional car lights that slipped past, Liu Yuan's figure stretched, deformed, and disappeared. I really wanted to say a few words to the past to comfort her.

But I know that what Liu Yuan needs at this time is not comfort, but to think quietly alone.

I hope this cold wind and cold night can dispel the grief in her heart and make her no longer so lonely.

Tang Wan came to my store alone: ​​"That's great, it will cost a lot of money, right?"

"Not much." I played sloppy and didn't elaborate.

"Who did you borrow from?" Logan didn't believe it at all.

"A friend." I said helplessly, simply.

"I know you?" Logan sat on the stool, "There are a lot of seats for two in the store."

"Well, I did it on purpose." Tang Wan changed the topic by herself, and I felt a lot more relaxed, "I remember when we were in high school, we ate steamed vegetables together, and we always sat at the same table with others, and we felt uncomfortable eating."

Logan looked away and looked at me: "I remember you told me this."

I nodded, the seating arrangement of the steamed vegetable restaurant was decorated according to my feelings at that time, at that time I just wanted to have a quiet meal with Tang Wan, without being disturbed by others.

Pour water for her and serve her vegetables.

"You also mentioned these hollowed-out partitions." Tang Wan turned around and touched the wooden hollowed-out partitions beside her, "The first time you went to the steamed vegetable restaurant, you asked the boss if there were any private rooms."

I sat opposite to Tang Wan, and said with a smile: "I was a little silly then, when I saw the shop at the head, I actually asked if there was any private room."

The two get along alone and don't want to be disturbed by outsiders. There are many high school courses, and the time they can be together is to eat, go back to the dormitory, and have free time after self-study next night.

I always want to dominate Tang Wan, Wu Dong often booed with the people in the dormitory, saying that I was ungrateful for sex, went out secretly with Logan on a date, and didn't take him with me, I didn't deny it.

"Now that we have it, couples can talk quietly when eating together." Tang Wan said, and praised again, but her eyes were a little dark and disappointed, "Very good."

I don't know if Tang Wan's very good refers to the well-decorated steamed food restaurant, or it is good for couples to have a quiet place to eat.

"By the way, is the name of the steamed vegetable restaurant ready?" Tang Wan thought of the name of the steamed vegetable restaurant, "When I came in, I saw that there was no sign yet."

"How about Sanchen Steamed Restaurant?" I thought of Chen Chen and Chen Wenjing, and asked with a smile.

Logan looked at me suspiciously.

"I invited two part-time students, both surnamed Chen, and I happened to be San Chen." I explained.

"It sounds very fluent, but it's impossible for the two of them to continue working forever?" Logan's words were exactly what I thought in my heart, but after a while, Logan seemed to think of something, "That's not right, you still have two daughters. , is also Sanchen, a very apt name."

I was stunned, I never thought about what Logan said.

Even if Chen Chen and Chen Wenjing don't work in my shop anymore, it doesn't matter if they call Sanchen Steamed Restaurant. I have two daughters, also surnamed Chen, but I never thought of that before.

Is it because Chen Ke and Chen Le have been away from me for a long time at Tong Wangjun's place, so I don't think of them?

But Logan remembered.

"Forget it." I shook my head, still rejecting the name.

"What?" Logan asked me, "Do you have a better name?"

"How about the name Youjia Steamed Vegetable Restaurant?" I did have a name in my mind.

A name that feels very small and fresh, in line with the decoration style of the steamed restaurant.

"Is there a steamed vegetable restaurant?" Tang Wan read aloud, pondered for a while, and nodded, "It's a nice name, and it fits the decoration style of the steamed vegetable restaurant."

"Okay, then it's settled, that's the name." With the approval, I gained confidence, "Tomorrow, I will find someone to make a name and hang it on it."

After admiring Logan, she left.

Chen Chen didn't come today, Chen Wenjing came alone: ​​"Chen Chen has a class today, and I took an elective course with Xiao Lun."

I understand that the two must go together, Chen Chen can't come.

"It's okay, we just do it." I had expected this kind of situation when I decided to have students, and it wasn't surprising, "You helped me wash the dishes, I had Li Mingzhou's help yesterday, today we will steam and order the dishes ourselves try."

Some things are easy for others to do, but they may be full of mistakes when doing it yourself. I am going to do business, not just play house. I must learn the craft and make delicious steamed vegetables.

After experimenting with Chen Wenjing four times in a row, Chen Wenjing took a sip of the eggplant beans that came out: "Okay, this time, it's not salty or bland, and the softness and hardness are just right, it's a success."

"That's good." I put down my raised chopsticks, and let out a heavy sigh of relief.

"Aren't you going to try it?" Chen Wenjing looked at me.

"You can just eat it." I shook my head, looked at the nearly a hundred steamed vegetable bowls beside me, and thought that I might never eat steamed vegetables again in my life.

Trying food is a hard job, but fortunately there is Chen Wenjing.

"Let's take a break, we'll do it later." Chen Wenjing stood up to clean up the dishes, and I asked her to stop.

"It's okay, just move around and digest." Chen Wenjing put on the smock and rubber gloves, "Don't you want all these things?"

"Keep it for the last time, throw away the previous ones." The previous few times, it was either bland or salty, or it was steamed too much, or it was not steamed, so it is useless to keep it.

As for the latter, I sighed, got up and walked around, picked up chopsticks and tried a little bit.

Very good, one more day to continue to stabilize, and after becoming more proficient, you can open the business: "Let Chen Chen come over tomorrow, and the business can be officially opened later."

"Okay." When Chen Wenjing said this, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

The business license, sanitation permit, and other relevant evidence were obtained and hung on the wall. The plaque in the store was finished and hung up. Some drinks and beer were brought in, and vegetables were bought. The business can be opened.

In the morning, in the shop I went to with Chen Chen, Ge Xiaolun also came out.

"Chen Chen, you can distribute these coupons at the school gate." I handed a stack of coupons to Chen Chen.

With the opening of a new store, there must be promotional activities. These are the discount coupons I made yesterday.

"Couples get a [-]% discount when entering the store, and there is a chance for free meals?" Ge Xiaolun took a coupon and looked at it, "How can you tell if they are a couple? What if someone pretends to be a couple to deceive people?"

"How could it be? They are all students. How could someone do such a thing." Chen Chen shook his head and chuckled.

"How is it impossible? A man and a woman, as long as they come in to eat together and say they are a couple, they can get half the price. Someone will definitely cheat the money." Ge Xiaolun said firmly.

"It's okay, just cheat, maybe you can make a couple." I don't mind at all.

Chen Chen and Ge Xiaolun went to the school gate to distribute coupons, while Chen Wenjing and I prepared steamed vegetables in the store.

Occasionally, one or two people will enter the store, but the phenomenon of full tables has not yet appeared.

I'm a little apprehensive.

"Boss, is this coupon from your store?" Two people entered the store with coupons in their hands and asked me.

"It's from my shop, you guys come over for dinner?" I glanced at the two of them, they were in their 30s.

"We're married, and it says that couples can enjoy a [-]% discount, and there is a chance to get free, can we do the same?" the man asked me.

"Okay, no problem, aren't couples lovers?" I answered thoroughly.

The two were stunned for a moment, then smiled, and found a place to sit down satisfied: "Boss, your store is really new."

"It's just been renovated, and it will take a few minutes for the food to come out. Please sit down first." I said, "There is tea on the table, pour it yourself."

"Boss, you are really particular. Is this bottle insulated?" On the dining table are disposable cups and medium-sized thermos bottles, each of which costs more than 100. There is boiled water in it, which is next to the thermos bottle. Tea leaves are on the other side and paper towels are on the other side.

There are trash cans under each dining table.

"It's such a cold day, hot water is comfortable to drink, the tea is on the table, pour it yourself." I said, and didn't go over to pour the water myself.

The waiters are too attentive, disturbing the tranquility, which is not good.

After waiting for a few minutes, Chen Wenjing and I brought out all the steamed vegetables and put them on the heat preservation table for people to choose by themselves.

After a while, someone came to the store with a coupon.

Chen Chen and Ge Xiaolun returned to the store, and the seats in the store were also full, most of them were students, and a small half were outsiders.

"Someone jumped off the building at the school." Chen Chen walked to me and said softly.
