Full of food and color

Chapter 90
In order to make the half-worn shop look brighter, Baozhu specially bought a bucket of wall powder and repainted the wall. The curtain is a piece of dark blue cloth given by Sangu, and the tables and chairs are specially hired by a carpenter. I ordered six sets, two sets were placed in the house, and the other four sets were placed in the shed outside for use when the weather is hot in summer.

The preparations for the store were ready, and because she was short on time and didn't care about choosing an auspicious day for opening, she decided to open tomorrow.

The business that Baozhu was looking at this time was the fast food industry. Because she was affected by the booming business of restaurants in the county, she had this idea in her mind at the time, but she had little capital at the beginning, so it would be really difficult for her to set up a small restaurant. Difficult.

Therefore, she decided to open a fast food restaurant first. There is still a big difference between restaurants and food stalls in the county. Food stalls also have fast food, which means that the poor can also eat snacks.

The third aunt of Baozhu entered the Liushu alley with the vegetables and pork she had purchased, looked at the words "Chen Ji Fast Food" on the small wooden plaque of the shop from a distance, pondered for a while, then walked into the shop and asked, "Baozhu, what do you want?" What is this sign called?"

Baozhu read it to Chen Cuixi with a smile. Chen Cuixi was puzzled, and asked what fast food was. Baozhu explained to her in this way: "Gu can be understood as a snack bar that is smaller than a small restaurant. It's just the same as the dishes sold in restaurants. It’s just that there are fewer styles, I’ve prepared a few collocations, and I’ll tell you about them in detail later, the prices are different, the lowest starts at six renminbi, and the most expensive one is only eighteen renminbi.”

Chen Cuixi listened to her talk for a long while, then said "Oh", and rolled his eyes to sum up: "How much do you charge for one serving of rice and one serving of vegetables? So cheap?"

Baozhu nodded, "It depends on what kind of dish it is. Meat dishes such as braised meatballs are naturally more than six yuan, while shredded potatoes and Chinese cabbage are cheaper. Customers have a variety of choices. We can mix one meat and two vegetables. Two meat and three vegetables, so the price will be different."

Although fast food is everywhere in later generations, it is really new to an ancient person. The third aunt of Baozhu digested it for an hour before gradually comprehending the meaning of fast food. She patted the table and exclaimed, "In this way , Those customers who have no money to go to restaurants, don’t they want to come to our shop to buy fast food?!”

Baozhu smiled lightly, "First of all, the dishes must be delicious, the portions must be sufficient, and the price should not be expensive. What the guests can eat is the benefits that are not available in restaurants."

Chen Cuixi nodded repeatedly, "What I'm talking about is that if things go on like this, we won't have to worry about no guests!" Then he glanced at Baozhu's small body, took her hand and said, "It's hard for us Baozhu to do so much work. Baby, from tomorrow on, Baozhu will only focus on cooking, don't worry about others, when guests come, I will take care of you!"

Baozhu giggled, and didn't treat her as an outsider, "Even Ligu's vegetable selling work has been delayed, and I will pay Gugu at the end of the month!"

Chen Cuixi laughed loudly and teased her: "Okay, our Baozhu baby is growing up, and we know how to respect Auntie, so Auntie's love for you is not in vain!" She was very optimistic about Baozhu's shop, so she smiled and comforted her: "Now the shop is considered a good place for you!" Once it’s on the plate, relying on your usual skills, the business will definitely not be far behind, not to mention other things, you will be famous in a few days!”

Baozhu still expressed a little worry about this, "Fast food is still a new trick, and I don't know if it can be eaten in the county..."

Chen Cuixi glared at her, "Gu didn't pick a good one. To be obedient, opening a restaurant depends on the craftsmanship. Gu eating the food cooked by our Baozhu baby is better than a big restaurant! Baozhu just don't worry, just in case this If you don’t make it in a month, you still have money, so the shop will be saved for you!”

Baozhu pulled out a wry smile, "I hope it can be as good as Gu said, I will be relieved, and if I make money, my father and mother can live a good life."

On the second day, the three of Baozhu got up early, and the third aunt of Baozhu insisted on buying a lot of firecrackers out of her own pocket yesterday.

Baozhu couldn't resist her, to be honest, she felt that Sangu had taken her heart out of her this time, and since she set up the shop, her aunt has been busy these days to make arrangements for her, and she also made custom-made tables, chairs and plaques , I went to a familiar coal dealer to buy coal, do sanitation, paint the walls, and change the curtains, all of which could not be done without the help of Sangu.If it wasn't for her aunt, it would have been all up to her, and if she wanted to open the business early, it would not have been so smooth.

This time, after all, she has accepted the great kindness of the third aunt. She is not a hypocritical person. She is a little moved and unwilling to express it in words. In addition, the shop has just opened, and no one can predict that she will make money in the future. She can only do it in her heart. I made a promise that from now on, besides her father and mother, her aunt will also be the focus of filial piety. Well, there is also Cousin Jide. Although he has a bad temper, these days, he doesn't even care about his homework in the afternoon because of her shop. , let him more in the future.

Amidst the crisp sound of firecrackers, Baozhu's Chen Ji fast food restaurant has opened.

According to Baozhu's third aunt, the business was very booming in the first day or two of opening. The two aunts and nephews were very happy when they saw that posture. up.Chen Cuixi is more pleasing to the eye the more she looks at the orb, she is smart and capable, her mouth is sweet, and her appearance is beautiful, she likes it very much, and can't wait to treat her as a future daughter-in-law, so naturally she is happy with her.The popularity of the shop is getting higher and higher day by day. Chen Cuixi is busy every day with a smile on her face. Sometimes Baozhu asks her to rest for a while. It was full again.

Due to the shortage of purchasing funds, Baozhu only ordered seven menu items. Vegetarian dishes include fried shredded potatoes, roasted eggplant, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.The few dishes she chose were not all the ones she was best at in her previous life, because it was a fast food restaurant, and the dishes that could be eaten were her first consideration.As the funds gradually accumulate in the future, other new dishes can always be added slowly.

On the first day of opening, many customers just wanted to try something new. Most people didn't expect such a humble new shop to make delicious dishes. Who knew that her signboard would be so delicious on the first day I typed it out steadily, but all those who had eaten once, except for the freshness of the business model of serving dishes with rice, were all full of praise for Baozhu's craftsmanship. On the second and third days, except for the regular customers, Gradually, more new faces were attracted.

As soon as the business was good, Baozhu became a little bit busy, thinking that she must invite an apprentice sometime later, and originally planned to take time to visit Runze in the academy, but now she is busy every day from opening to closing.Tired after tired, thinking about the money in hand, I feel happy again.

Recently, Chen Cuixi didn't allow Jide to come back in the afternoon. Once he came, he couldn't do any work, and he couldn't help when he came. If he came again, it would delay his studies.Originally, she was thinking that she would not force herself to do good deeds, if she got a pass, she would pass, if she didn't, she would learn to run with her father in the future, and since she was literate, it would not be impossible to do it alone if she became familiar with it.But recently she changed her mind, thinking in her heart that Baozhu is so capable, she doesn't know what she is thinking in the future, if Jide wins a scholar again, the marriage of Baozhu in the future must be sure, and she is not treating his sister badly.

Baozhu is happy here, but there is also a happy event in the house. A few days ago, Mrs. Wang said that she would leave for the county to visit Baozhu and Runze. Then word came that Cuifen had just given birth to a baby boy.

As the elder sister-in-law, Mrs. Wang must take care of her sister-in-law for some time while she is in confinement, not to mention Mrs. Chen Liu. Ever since she found out that Cui Fen was pregnant, she has never stopped talking. Because my uncle is disabled, Cui Fen Married to Li Zheng's family, the beauty is only on the face, everyone in the village is chewing their tongues behind, Chen Liushi always has a sigh of relief in her heart, and she talks to everyone, now that the youngest of the Sun family has a queen, her girl is born Baby, it must be healthy.

Because Cui Fen gave birth to a baby, the matter of looking at the orb was delayed. One day, as soon as Mrs. Wang came back from Lizheng's room, she saw Wei Sipei standing at the door hesitating, she said with a smile: "Run Sheng Right now, Yuemo is still in the ground."

Wei Sipei called his aunt with a smile, followed Mrs. Wang into the yard, pursed his lips, and asked, "I haven't seen Baozhu yet. I heard from my father that I went to the county. When will I be back?"

Mrs. Wang let out a "huh", "On the tenth day of June when Baozhu left, she said she would go to your house to let you know. Don't you know when the baby left?"

Wei Sipei opened his mouth, slapped his forehead, and said with some annoyance: "That day, my father and I were invited to Zhao's house as guests, I'm afraid Baozhu didn't see me when he came."

Wang glanced at him, rolled her eyes, and joked with a smile: "It's only been a few days? Miss your sister? It's too early for your sister to come back." She sighed, "I guess it will be around the end of the year." .”

Wei Sipei was still immersed in the remorse of that day, he was going to celebrate Baozhu's birthday, but Zhao's family personally came to invite him, he couldn't shirk it with his father, so he went with him, thinking about having dinner, he rushed back early, Unexpectedly, father drank too much that day, and it was already dark when he left.

Afterwards, he waited day by day for Bao Zhu to come to find him, but he never saw her again, thinking that she was probably angry with him, knowing that she got up early to feed the cows, so he went to the river to wait for people every day, I haven't met him for a few days, and I just wanted to ask, but yesterday I heard Baozhu's father saying that Baozhu had gone to the county seat while exchanging greetings with his father.He thought, after going for so many days, he came to try his luck today to see if she came back, but he got the news that Baozhu didn't come back until the end of the year.

Seeing him in a daze, Wang couldn't help laughing out loud, and asked, "Bao Zhu is eight years old this year, Si Pei is twelve this year too!"

Wei Sipei said kindly, and Wang sighed with a smile: "In two years, we will have a kiss." Thinking of something, he asked him: "Is there a girl you like?"

Wei Sipei blushed, turned around hastily, and answered her in a low voice, "Not yet, uh, auntie, I'll go back first."

Seeing him running away in a hurry, Mrs. Wang smiled and turned her head to her husband and said, "I think Si Pei is a good kid. I will tell Dr. Wei about it, and our two families will get married!"

Chen Tiegui came out from the back room, glanced at his daughter-in-law, and said angrily: "Huh, it's a good idea, brother Wei is a good teacher, unlike you, he is used to our daughter all day long, who knows if the Wei family will look down on her in the future?" eye-catching?"

Mrs. Wang curled her lips, "As long as our Baozhu baby is so beautiful and talented, there may be many people vying for it in the future! Besides, if Runze wins a scholar, even if Baozhu gets married and goes to the county, he will not be considered high-ranking!" After thinking about it Thinking about it, she said happily: "The county is far away, so it's inconvenient. Sipei is better, she has a good temper, and she can see a doctor. The two families are so close!"

Chen Tiegui let out a "ah" and said, "I don't know what will happen then, what's the use of talking about it now? To catch Cui Fen's confinement tomorrow, take some dried sweet potatoes and take them to my third aunt, my baby will be white every day." You don’t have to worry about eating and drinking for free! You don’t have time to talk about your baby’s marriage!”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I'm relieved, Baby Zhu is diligent wherever she goes, it's too late for your sister to be happy!"
