The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 214 The old man was asked

Lao Tan came to the pastry processing room.

Yaru just came back from his hometown a few days ago.

The child is on summer vacation, so take advantage of this time to go back and visit his parents.

Everything is fine at home, her parents are healthy, and her son has excellent academic performance. This makes her very satisfied and at ease.

My son is fifteen, and he is in the second year of middle school. The third year of school starts, and it is time for the senior high school entrance examination next year.The son said that he would definitely be admitted to a key high school, and she promised to buy a laptop for her son.In fact, if you fail the exam, you will buy it, that is your own son.

Her parents are still worried about her, and what they mean is that they can't live alone, and find another one when they meet a suitable one.Said that Inner Mongolia is too far away from home, and see if I can find a job near home, so I don’t care about earning less, at least I can go home often and see my children often.

Yaru understands the old man's mood, but she is living well now and doesn't want to change anything.

She is happy with the current status quo.The job is stable, food and clothing are not worrying, and there is nothing to do at home. The two elderly people are healthy and healthy, so don't worry about it.The only son he cared about is also sensible. Although he can't be by his side, his grandparents are taking good care of him, so he can rest assured.

As for my own affairs, it depends on fate, don't come in a hurry.What's more, I still don't want to find someone to marry and start a new family.This is not to say that there are still shadows in the marriage in the past, but I just feel that life is good now, with free hands and feet, why should they be restrained?

When I came back from my hometown, I brought Lao Tan a barrel of Sangou Baijiu. I wanted to send it to him in the past two days, but I didn't have time to pour it out.It happened to be today, Lao Tan came and asked him to take it home by himself.

In addition to Yaru, there are two younger brothers in the pastry room, and there are also two stuffing masters for Mr. Wang's shop.Five people greeted Lao Tan one after another.

"How many days have you been back?" Old Tan asked Yaru.

"It's been almost a week." Yaru replied.

"Everything is going well at home?"

"Well, it's all good."

"Is your child in junior high school?"

"It's the second year of junior high school, and the third year of junior high school will start again."

"It's already the third grade of junior high school, so fast." Lao Tan couldn't help but sigh with emotion when the little guy was only five years old when he saw Yaru's son.

"Isn't that fast? We're all over forty—" Yaru smiled.

Old Tan saw the wrinkles in the corners of Yaru's eyes, and thought to himself that there was nothing wrong with it. The little girl at that time was now a woman, and he had also changed from a spirited boy to a greasy uncle.

The ruthless years make people old.

"I brought you a bucket of white wine, don't forget it when you leave later." Yaru said.

"Okay, thank you. It just so happens that there is a drinking party today, so I'll drink it." Old Tan said happily, looking at Yaru with grateful eyes.

Yaru was a little annoyed, this is the good wine she entrusted someone to make at the Sangou winery, it weighs fifty pounds per catty, and she is going to ask Lao Tan to take it home and drink it himself, but he is good, he wants to share it with everyone.

"I shouldn't bring it to you. It's good wine. Take it home and drink it yourself." Yaru said angrily.

"Oh—" Old Tan said in a long voice, "Okay, you have to drink it yourself."

"I really shouldn't bring it, and I don't know what to drink with that wine—"

Women, it's weird, they obviously don't want to make men drink, but they still buy them, and they are good.To put it bluntly, there is still that friendship in my heart, if I don't like it, I don't want to buy wine.

It's just that this liking is often fettered by reality. I have it in my heart, I can't let it go, and I can't show it, but I am willing.Sometimes I even want to go all out and commit myself to the man I love, even if I don’t have a name or a point, but after calming down, I tell myself that this is impossible.

In our reality, few people can love and go crazy easily and freely without considering the eyes of outsiders and their families.Even cheating is frightening, and the anxiety after the joy tortures the soul.

Although lovers are extremely common in today's society, no one dares to show them off blatantly.

We can imagine a scene: Lao Tan and Lin Yan are at odds and have almost lost their relationship.As the general manager of Aqiao, he is out of town, working with his first lover.The two of them had nothing to do during the day, and slept in the same bed secretly at night, living a life like a husband and wife.

No matter how powerful you are and how prestigious you are, the employees will look down on you behind your back without saying anything. After all, you are a man with a family and business, a wife and children, and it is obviously morally wrong to do so.

Having said that, no matter how beautiful Yaru is and how popular she is, once she does, people will say that she is not decent, that a third party is involved, and she is a random woman.

Even if the two don't care about these things for the sake of love, is it possible?

Unless Lao Tan divorced.

In any case, when a person's position can affect a company, he needs to pay attention to his every word and action. When his personality collapses, the company will be impacted and the fate of many people will be implicated, or It's a matter of feeding the family.

Such examples are too numerous to mention.

It is said that it is not easy to stand upright in front of others with a clear heart.As a normal person, how can he not have the seven emotions and six desires?It is normal for a man to have sex with a woman, who can stop it?

There is a ghost in the heart, thinking and not wanting and doing and not doing are two different things.The rise of desire is natural, and suppression and guidance are also inevitable. When the word of love is broken, love may be more true.

It is a kind of torture of the heart to wait and see and to be relatively speechless. Only those who have gone through the torture know the preciousness of love and the rareness of love.

Lao Tan came out of the Central Kitchen Store to see if there was enough time, and then went to the Jinqiao Store.

The Jinqiao store has just opened, and it is the time when the new store is busy every three months, and it is full and overturned every day.

As soon as he entered the store, Li Yanjing told Gu Yi that he was having a drink with his friends in the private room, and asked Lao Tan if he would come to say hello.Old Tan asked who was drinking together?Li Yanjing said it was a friend from Suzhou, and Zhou Xiaomei was also there.

Since he was a friend from afar, Lao Tan thought he should go to say hello, and also give Gu Yi a strong face.

Maybe Li Yanjing was negligent. He didn't say that Sun Yucong, the chairman of the chamber of commerce, was also there. When Lao Tan entered the private room and saw him, he was a little surprised.

"When will the president come back?" Lao Tan stepped forward to shake hands with Sun Yucong warmly, and asked kindly.

"The plane getting off in the afternoon." Sun Yucong was also very enthusiastic, and after letting go of Lao Tan's hand, he introduced three men and two women from Suzhou.

Lao Tan shook hands and greeted them one by one. Zhou Xiaomei prepared tableware for Lao Tan and filled them with wine.

"If you don't know, don't blame me. I don't know that five friends came from afar. I'm sorry." Old Tan said, holding up his wine glass, and continued: "Toast to everyone, I hope you can forgive me."

Everyone said Mr. Tan was polite one after another, and drank the wine together.

Let me talk about Sun Yucong, the boss of Sun Yucong. Since the stock market failed, he has paid more attention to antiques. After a year of hard work, he has made back the money he lost on the stock market.This time, after listening to Gu Yi's suggestion, I bought a shop at the east gate of the Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou, leaving two to open an antique shop, and rented out the rest for rent, and started to work steadily.

When I met Lao Tan at the beginning, I didn't take Lao Tan seriously, thinking that a small restaurant can have a lot of promise, let alone a cook.It's just that I didn't expect Lao Tan to open the restaurant to such an extent in a few years, which is a bit impressive.

This time when I came back from Suzhou, the few friends who came with me are all business customers. Now is the most beautiful season in the grassland, and I am going to take them to the grassland to play.After getting off the plane, I asked Gu Yi to arrange a hotel for the evening, and Gu Yi led him here.

Sun Yucong drank a glass of wine with Lao Tan alone, put down the glass and said, "Brother Tan, your dumpling restaurant is doing well."

"It's okay." Old Tan replied politely.

"Your family can take this form to the south. Southerners love to eat our northern dumplings." Sun Yucong said.

"Well, the line of the Yellow River will be exhausted until the line of the Yangtze River." Old Tan said realistically.

The lady from Suzhou said, "Mr. Tan, this is the best dumpling I've ever eaten. If your family opens a store in Suzhou, the business will definitely be booming. There is no decent dumpling restaurant in Suzhou yet."

Several others followed suit.

"Thank you for the compliment. We will develop to the south when Hohhot is stable." Lao Tan said with a smile.

"Okay, dumplings are our Northeast specialty, and the people's delicacy should be carried forward." Sun Yucong said.

Sitting next to Sun Yucong, Gu Yi saw that the boss expressed his approval of Lao Tan's dumpling restaurant, and said to the camera: "Boss, how do you think I am the general agent of Tan's dumpling restaurant in Suzhou?"

"You?" Sun Yucong looked at Gu Yi with strange eyes, and asked in disbelief, "Can you still do business?"

"Why can't you? You don't know. You only need to pay for the cooperation with him, and you don't need to worry about the rest. They will take care of everything." Gu Yi said.

Sun Yucong turned to Lao Tan and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Old Tan saw Sun Yucong's serious expression, so he briefly explained the cooperation method.Sun Yucong thought about it for a while, and asked Lao Tan a few more questions, and Lao Tan answered them one by one.

"This way, Mr. Tan, if you go to Suzhou to develop, you must find me, and I will cooperate with you." The lady just opened her mouth before Sun Yucong could speak, and she seemed to have fallen in love with Aqiao Dumpling Restaurant.

Sun Yucong smiled and said, "Mr. Qiao, there is no one like you."

The lady surnamed Qiao smiled gracefully and said, "Brother Sun, a restaurant is a small business, you can't do it."

"Haha——" Sun Yucong smiled heartily, and said, "I have a ready-made house. It is better to rent it from others, and it is better to rent it from my brother. Mr. Qiao, don't forget, my old brother is the general agent in Suzhou. If you do You have to establish a good relationship with him first, isn’t it Brother Tan?”

Sun Yucong stopped Lao Tan.
