"Wait a moment, I'll go and make a convenience."
Just when they were about to enter Brother Zhang's house, Miss Succubus looked up at the contact number on the small restaurant, and then hurriedly said to Brother Zhang: "Don't leave, I'm a road addict and will get lost. of."
"oh."
She quickly turned the corner and walked into the public toilet in the corner of the alley, but within a minute, a text message was sent from the other card that Xiao Zhang had dual-card dual standby for accepting orders.
"Hello, are you the owner of XXX restaurant? I want to take my boyfriend to have a meal later, and he is already at the door. He is the president of that XXX restaurant, and his taste is very delicious. I heard that you have The things are very good, so please treat him well. Money is not an issue. He is very rich. If you offer a higher price then, if I say I didn’t bring enough money, he will pay."
When Brother Zhang saw this text message, he fell into a very strange feeling, but he didn't say anything, he just thought Miss Succubus was stupid...
Soon, Miss Succubus walked out of the public toilet. When she came over, she took a selfie under the big sycamore tree, and then walked up to the store with Brother Zhang.
There was almost no business at the moment, and the store was empty. Xu Wei was sitting there playing with her mobile phone. When she heard the welcoming bell rang, she looked up and said, "Why are you back so soon?"
When Miss Succubus heard this, she was extremely happy. No matter how she looked at Xu Wei, she found it pleasing to her eyes. She felt that sending this text message was really effective, so she didn't have time to think about the meaning of the word "hui" in return. We started chatting: "Please arrange a better location for us, and let me see what signature dishes you have here."
Xu Wei looked past her towards Brother Zhang, the confusion in her eyes visible to the naked eye.
"Let's arrange it." Brother Zhang sighed: "The signature dish."
Xu Wei was not stupid. She guessed the secret right away. After being silent for less than two seconds, she quickly stood up and said, "You can sit wherever you want. There is no business during this period anyway."
"Why don't you even have a private room?" Miss Succubus looked around and muttered somewhat reluctantly: "But the Fly Restaurant doesn't ask for that much."
When Xu Wei heard what he said, her eyes drifted towards Brother Zhang, who spread his hands to show that he was particularly innocent.
"Okay, okay, I know you're picky about food, but this store has very high reviews. You really have to try it."
In the eyes of Miss Succubus, Brother Zhang's actions became a sign that she disliked this place, so she quickly comforted him, and then started busy organizing things like a regular customer here.
The two of them sat in the back hall, where Brother Zhang usually worked. As usual, there was a cat lying on the counter, and today was no exception.
"Oh, what's going on with you? Why is this dirty fat cat lying in the eating area! Hurry up, get rid of it!"
"Meow?" Dahuang lazily stood up and glanced sleepily at the snoring Miss Succubus, then glanced at Little Brother Zhang next to him, spat, then turned over and continued to sleep.
"I'm sorry, he's the accountant here." Xu Wei came over and took Rhubarb by its tail: "I'm used to sleeping here."
"This is really interesting for you guys. You want a cat to be your accountant and mascot?"
Xu Wei laughed: "It can eat people without spitting out bones."
At this point, Miss Succubus completely settled down, and then introduced to Brother Zhang: "This store is a very famous Chinese omakase. Customers who come here are not allowed to order..."
Before she finished speaking, someone came in from outside: "Weiwei, a piece of fish-flavored shredded pork, please pack it up."
"Ah..." Miss Succubus suddenly turned red, but she was still fighting hard: "Maybe it's because of the epidemic... I have no choice but to compromise. Some time ago, I saw that many five-star hotels have set up stalls to sell box lunches."
Brother Zhang didn't say anything, he just silently pulled out a menu from the shelf under the table and placed it on the table, then gently pushed it towards Miss Succubus.
Miss Succubus slapped the menu with her hand: "Today it must be omakase!"
"Okay." Brother Zhang sighed.
Xu Wei has been here for some years and has already inherited the mantle of Brother Zhang. The things she makes are almost 90% similar to Brother Zhang. The difference is that she has incorporated her own understanding into it, so the taste is The shapes are almost the same, with slightly different details. For example, Brother Zhang likes to use ginger as an ingredient in his roast chicken, while Xu Wei likes to use Yanghe. Old ginger has a more spicy taste, while Yanghe has a milder taste, but both are very delicious.
Of course, Xu Wei knew that Brother Zhang didn't actually have any appetite. He usually ate just to make himself look less strange. After all, people who don't eat or sleep feel very creepy.
But even so, she still planned to prepare a set carefully today, even if it was to let Brother Zhang assess whether her skills had improved during this period.
The first dish is Zhang's Roast Chicken, one of the three signature dishes in the store. Vixen's favorite. During the days when Mr. Pi disappeared, her sister, Coral, basically spent all her salary on eating the roast chicken. When it comes to chicken, it can be said that no fox can resist the taste of Zhang’s roasted chicken.
Take out the roasted chicken from the stove, chop it into small pieces with a knife, remove the chicken head, neck and other unsightly parts. Wrap the chicken legs with tin foil, then add fresh pepper sauce with Yanghe juice and scallion oil. Prepare two dipping sauces with soy sauce and put them on the side. This is the first course.
As soon as the dish was served, Miss Succubus immediately encouraged Brother Zhang to eat it. She also picked up a piece and took a bite elegantly. After eating, her eyes widened: "This is delicious! Chicken is originally It’s pretty cool, but this one isn’t cheap at all!”
Brother Zhang nodded: "Yes."
Originally, there was also a dragon soup among the signature dishes, but that one required a reservation and Brother Zhang needed to handle it personally, so there was no way to serve this dish today. But if there is no dragon soup, what else is there, so the Ananda dragon soup The alternative is vinegar-flavored octopus. Fresh octopus legs are cut off, blanched to remove the mucus, and then simply seasoned with soy sauce, mustard, sauce and vinegar. It is delicious, appetizing and chewy, but the premise is that the octopus must be very fresh, otherwise it will be fishy. taste.
However, you don’t have to worry about the freshness of the octopus legs here. They will still move after being cooked for three years. You have to use Brother Zhang’s kitchen knife to smash them to lose their vitality and turn them into edible things.
This dish really overturned Miss Succubus's understanding of octopus. Although she was unable to absorb these ordinary foods, a girl's natural appetite made her like to eat and eat. She was not ignorant. I have traveled to Baga several times and eaten all kinds of rice cookers, scallop masters, tempura masters and sashimi masters, but I have never tasted octopus with this kind of texture.
You can even feel the abundant juice exploding in your mouth after one bite. Every bite is like crushing a small popping bead wrapped in delicious juice and exploding in your mouth. It really feels like you have eaten a mouthful of March. I don’t know the taste of meat.
"This is so delicious..."
Miss Succubus looked shocked. She couldn't imagine that there could be a restaurant in such an inconspicuous alley that could prepare dishes to this level. This was just an ordinary octopus!
At this time, the third dish also came. This is the only dish that Xu Wei can put Xiao Zhang to shame. It is the braised pork that her grandmother taught her before she was alive. There is no messy presentation, just a plate with twenty A few pieces of thick oily red sauce, three-layered, and crystal clear meat. It is sweet and fragrant with one chopstick. It melts in your mouth. The sweet and salty taste perfectly sets off the aroma of the meat and the delicateness of the oil. It is not like the kind that often appears in restaurants. The feeling of assembly line products is the typical taste of small rural alleys in the countryside. It is the perfect ratio of fire, oil and water under the hands of chefs with decades of experience. It is the magic that belongs to every skilled mother.
It’s delicious and can be talked about. No wonder this dish is one of the three signature dishes here. It even feels like not having a bowl of rice would be a blasphemy to the meat on the plate.
Just as Miss Succubus was thinking, a rice bucket was brought up. There was a lot of rice oil in it, exuding a strong aroma of rice. Although she was still a little reserved and did not show the gesture of wolfing down, there was no food in her hands. Stopping, she first filled a clean bowl with a bowl of rice for Brother Zhang, and then filled a bowl for herself.
In fact, there is an unwritten rule in the catering industry. To judge whether a restaurant is delicious or not, you don’t need to look at its food. You just need to look at its rice first. If the rice and noodles in a restaurant are delicious, the food in this restaurant will definitely not be. Worse still, the rice will be far more attractive than the dishes.
The rice here comes from the Rose Empire. It is the rice that the royal family eats. The yield is very low. The country's annual output is only about 30,000 kilograms, but the taste is not outstanding, with distinct grains. It has a rich flavor and won't have a bad taste in your mouth. Even if you eat it with your mouth empty, it will be full of sweetness.
Two people and three dishes, Miss Succubus fucked more than half of it, but Brother Zhang didn't take two bites as usual. This made Miss Succubus full of curiosity, and she asked: "The food here is so delicious, why not There’s fire.”
Brother Zhang didn't say anything. He just sat there and looked in the direction of the stove. Then he laughed, got up, went to the jukebox and started playing with his favorite little toy...
The melodious singing came out, and the atmosphere of the small restaurant immediately rose. The environment, which was originally criticized as not being luxurious enough, suddenly became a highlight. The sunlight outside shone in mottledly through the glass, and the huge sycamore trees Blocking out the sun and blocking the hot summer air outside, the wind passes through the gaps in the trees, making a rustling sound that becomes the most beautiful chords of soft music.
Old songs, old trees, old alleys, a dim sunset and an old lover are the most beautiful scenery in the world.
The atmosphere became ambiguous, and even without candlelight, there seemed to be light and shadow flickering in Miss Succubus's eyes.
"I'm here! Hahahaha, give me a chicken, and I'll put it on my sister's head."
Just when this beauty was amidst the beauty, a loud roar suddenly came from outside, and then the sound of tables and chairs being pinged was heard. These sounds directly pulled Miss Succubus back from the pink bubble world.
Before she could react, a short man suddenly rushed over and rushed towards little Brother Zhang: "Hurry up and let me hug you!"
But before she could reach her position, Xu Wei suddenly pinched the collar of the back of her neck and lifted her out like a chicken. This scene made Miss Succubus stupid, and Brother Zhang just He smiled and shook his head.
"She's not in her right mind, just keep going."
Xu Wei put her head over and said something, which dispelled her doubts, but this place gave her a really strange feeling, and the domineering president in front of her seemed strange as well.
Whether it was judging from the menu just now or the skillful way he played with the record player, he seemed to be quite familiar with this place...
But it’s not easy for Ms. Succubus to ask now. What if she is a regular customer after asking? Then where should I put my old face? It's a tacit understanding between adults, right?
After eating, it’s time to check out. Ms. Succubus estimates that the price will not be too outrageous, because judging from the prices on the menu, this place is quite popular for public consumption, and an average person in their thirties or forties can eat well. But I'm not sure. After all, today's dishes should not be cheap or cheap in terms of quality or portion, otherwise it would be considered vicious competition.
"Settle the bill."
Miss Succubus called Moon God Xiao Hei over. Xiao Hei had just come to work, but she had already heard the gossip about Brother Zhang. Her eyes flicked in front of Brother Zhang, and then from time to time He glanced at Miss Succubus.
"That's it?" Xiao Hei was filled with disdain: "Succubus... bah."
After the succubus saw the moon god Xiaohei, she felt that her limbs were no longer able to control her. How could such a beautiful woman handle the dishes here? Are there any laws? This product cost more than tens of thousands of dollars a month to chat with people on live broadcasts. If it doesn't work out, I can teach her how to train a dog... It's not as satisfying to make money as it is to serve a plate.
"Eighty-eight pieces of braised pork, thirty-five pieces of that weird foot, one hundred pieces of roast chicken, and eight pieces of rice. A total of two hundred and twenty-eight yuan, and Chenghui two hundred and two."
"Ah?" Miss Succubus was stunned, as if she didn't hear clearly: "How much?"
"Two hundred and two."
Two hundred dollars? Is there any mistake? This price is too inappropriate. This quality and price will even make people doubt that this place is doing charity. In her opinion, there is no way to sell anything here for 388. ,588 are sorry for this quality.
"Pack it up." Brother Zhang suddenly said: "There are still a lot left."
"Isn't this good..." Miss Succubus looked down at the remaining food. Brother Zhang almost didn't use his chopsticks. She ate everything by herself. She wanted to pack it, but after all, it was a little bit. Excuse me.
Brother Zhang laughed at this time and looked up at Moon God Xiao Hei: "Go get two boxes and help her pack them."
"Okay." Xiao Hei quickly walked to the back and took out the packing box. He quickly packed up the leftovers and handed them to Miss Succubus: "Welcome to come again next time."
Miss Succubus carried the food with a confused look and followed Brother Zhang to the door: "It's almost time to go back to work."
"Ah, right, right!" Miss Succubus finally reacted: "I'll take you back to school first."
"No, I have a car." Brother Zhang said and clicked a few times on his phone: "You go back first, my car is here."
Miss Succubus looked around and didn't find the car. It must have been agreed with the driver, and it would be rude to stay here any longer, so Miss Succubus naturally said goodbye and left.
But Brother Zhang really made an appointment with the car. He sent a text message to his little eMule, and the little eMule came by himself...
In the afternoon, Miss Succubus didn't even think about going to work. She just kept thinking about what she saw in that place at noon. The more she thought about it, the weirder she became. Anyway, she felt that something was wrong in that store, it was weird...
The strangest thing is the domineering president. He was fine elsewhere, but when he was in that small restaurant, his whole demeanor changed. Really, my temperament has changed.
But today he seems to be in good condition, which proves that his strategy is effective. Although he was attacked by the beautiful waiter at noon, as a succubus, she is not so easy to give up, so she I started to think about it.
In her opinion, a large part of a man's sense of accomplishment should be obtained by pulling others over. And since the domineering president is so low-key, he must also be someone who likes to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.
If you can create opportunities for him to show off and slap him in the face, then everyone will have a common enemy, and the relationship will naturally get better.
As a result, a carefully planned "conspiracy" quietly arose in Miss Succubus's heart.
At this moment, Brother Zhang has finished work. Today and tomorrow, the students of the school will be closed for training, so ordinary teachers like them naturally have nothing to do. In addition, in the afternoon, he almost let the few people who formed the group of salted fish passersby. I was so annoyed, so I just got off work early today.
He was surrounded as soon as he came home from work. Everyone was asking about the succubus lady, but he had a clear conscience and acted naturally, so he didn't hide anything and told everything.
"This girl can do it, she is really proactive." Xu Wei sighed: "If I were as proactive as her, I'm afraid my children would all go to kindergarten now."
"Is there a possibility that you are the one going to kindergarten?" Dahuang raised his head and said, "Counting the time, this is your fourth year of reincarnation."
"Go, go, go..." Xu Wei was helpless and furious: "How long has it been, and you still bring it up."
"It's okay to talk about it." Brother Zhang leaned over and looked at the sunset outside: "After all, our story begins with you."
Xu Wei has long been accustomed to Brother Zhang saying things that are difficult to understand, such as what he always says, "Our lives are actually other people's stories." So although it was strange now, Xu Wei was still very happy when she heard this sentence.
"Where will it end?" Xu Wei asked Xiao Zhang with a smile.
Brother Zhang was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at the sky quietly: "It ends when another seed begins to sprout."
