“There shouldn’t be a problem if we just go like this.” Yuan Zhou lowered his head and looked at the clothes on his body, feeling that there shouldn’t be any problem.
Only then did she notice that Yuan Zhou’s clothes were different from the usual Han Chinese clothing in the restaurant, and also different from the leisure and comfort he wore when he went out for a date with Yin ya or when he went out to taste the dishes. He was dressed simply, the kind that could be used to do work at a glance.
He was wearing a simple T-shirt and a pair of faded jeans, looking like a university student who had just left school.
Although he wasn’t familiar with the place, Yin ya did her job very well. Without much effort, Yuan Zhou soon found the correct route to the place he was going to with the hotel he was staying in as the central axis.
Once again, it proved that Yin ya had prepared very carefully and saved Yuan Zhou a lot of time.
After walking along the road for about 15 minutes, Yuan Zhou finally saw his destination, a small restaurant called the kitchen of life.
When he said “small shop,” it was really small. It didn’t mean that the place was small, but that it was running a small business. This time, it was real.
From a distance away, he could see the big LED sign outside the door.”Free to cook, help with cooking, two meat dishes, one vegetable dish.”
The restaurant was a small two-story building. According to the information Yuan Zhou had obtained, this building was the territory of the boss himself. Otherwise, the price wouldn’t be so low. It didn’t even have enough for water, electricity, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, let alone rent. Naturally, it couldn’t be maintained.
At the very least, they could save on rent by living in their own house. All they had to do was to cover the other expenses.
Of course, even so, the boss almost couldn’t maintain it. It was only recently that some officials noticed this place and allocated funds to repair the site for the boss. They also allocated some money to maintain the daily operations. The boss’s life kitchen could be considered to have survived with difficulty.
It was Yuan Zhou’s target this time, the small restaurant surrounded by several hospitals.
“Ta ta ta”
......
Yuan Zhou walked a few steps and arrived at the entrance of the restaurant. It was probably still early at the moment and there were not many people in the restaurant. Standing at the entrance, he could see that the lobby outside was very small. There were only four tables placed against the wall and there was a small space left in the middle.
The most eye-catching thing was definitely the kitchen inside. There were rows of coal stoves, and on each stove was a pot for cooking. There were roughly about 20 stoves. On the other side was the long kitchen counter, which had a few thick cutting boards and a few shiny kitchen knives. One look and you could tell that they had just been ground and were definitely sharp.
Yuan Zhou had only stood there for two minutes before he attracted the attention of a middle-aged woman. She was short and chubby with short hair. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with tiny flowers, a pair of black trousers, and a pair of black cloth shoes. At first glance, she was obviously dressed for work.
“Young man, what’s up? Are you here to cook? the requirements are all written there, feel free to read. ” Then, she pointed at the board outside.
Although it was an LED brand, Yuan Zhou could tell at a glance that it was different from the one in his restaurant. It didn’t light up at all, most likely because it had been used for too long.
“No, I just want to come here to help. I don’t know if I need people here, but I only have a few days. Is that okay?” Yuan Zhou said in a low voice.
“Oh my, you’re such a kind-hearted young man. It’s okay, you’re just in time. Dunzi and Xiao Li can’t come for a few days because they’re busy. You’re just in time. But dunzi has to know how to cut vegetables. You know how to cut vegetables, right?” On hearing Yuan Zhou’s words, the Auntie smiled with her eyes narrowed. Obviously, she was really happy.
“I know how to cut vegetables. I’ve been practicing.” Yuan Zhou said.
“That’s good. Young man, since you’re here, you must know what we do here. We serve everyone. It’s busier and tougher during mealtimes. ” The Auntie was clearly someone who would say the ugly things first and would be direct if she had something to say.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said,”I know. I will work hard. May I know your name, Auntie?”
“Hahaha, my surname is Wu. You can call me Auntie Wu. It’s still early now, so it’s nothing much. If you’re staying nearby, you can come over in an hour.” Auntie Wu said directly.
Judging from his attitude, he seemed to be very familiar with the process. He had probably received many people like Yuan Zhou before. Therefore, he was very familiar with Yuan Zhou.
As expected, after Yuan Zhou expressed that he would help clean the table and tidy up the kitchen, aunt Wu became a Chatterbox and said a lot to Yuan Zhou.
Other than the help from the government, there would be volunteers coming over to help every three to five days. Although they didn’t stay for long, they were all good children who did practical work.
“Little Yuan, you’re so nimble and clean. Your future wife will be very lucky.” Looking at the kitchen that had become very comfortable and clean after Yuan Zhou cleaned it, aunt Wu gasped in admiration.
Originally, she didn’t think Yuan Zhou was a person who would do such things. She didn’t expect that one couldn’t judge a book by its cover and that he was so capable.
Although the kitchen was cleaned every day, she was not a professional chef after all. It looked clean, but in fact, it was very messy. Of course, this was definitely compared with the result of Yuan Zhou’s cleaning today. Aunt Wu had never known that the kitchen could actually look so comfortable.
“No, I’m used to it. As long as Auntie Wu thinks it’s good, it’s fine.” Yuan Zhou said.
“It’s really good. Although I can’t tell what’s good about it, it makes me feel comfortable. Those people will definitely like it when they come.” Aunty Wu said as she looked around.
Following that, Yuan Zhou briefly explained to aunty Wu some tips and tricks for cleaning the kitchen as per her request. At that moment, Yuan Zhou didn’t look like the Chinese chef King whose cooking skills were the best in Asia, but just like an ordinary chef.
“It turns out that little Yuan has a small restaurant. That’s really amazing.” Aunty Wu had always admired ambitious young people.
She especially appreciated a modest and hardworking boy like Yuan Zhou who was not impetuous. Even if she didn’t know how famous master chef Restaurant was, her favorable impression of Yuan Zhou still rose steadily after only a short interaction with him.
“Aunty Wu, I’d like uncle Wang to make some chicken soup for me today.” When it was almost time for dinner, a woman in her 30s came in.
Her long hair was tied up behind her head, and she looked a little tired. However, she had a smile on her face, which made her look a little relaxed.
“What’s the matter? your husband’s condition has improved and he can eat meat now?” Aunty Wu was obviously very familiar with the person and asked directly.
“This morning, the doctor said that it’s time to add some protein. It’s ready to be eaten after making some soup.” As she spoke, the woman’s smile widened, and the fatigue between her brows seemed to have dissipated a little.
“That’s great. It’s only the initial stage, so it’ll definitely get better. Don’t worry. ” Auntie Wu consoled him and then shouted at the stairs,””Old Wang, come down quickly. It’s already noon. Xiao Li wants to make soup today.”
“It’s coming, it’s coming. ” Not long after, a deep voice came from upstairs.
“Dong Dong Dong”
After a while, there was a rustling sound from upstairs. Then, a ball rolled down the stairs. It was really a ball.
At least, in Yuan Zhou’s opinion, it was more fitting to the name “Yue ban” than du Yueban himself. Of course, although it was a ball, its movements were agile and didn’t seem clumsy at all. It wasn’t an exaggeration to call it an agile fatty.
