Chapter 280 Alright, brother is the best!

Mid-Autumn Festival, people reunite when the moon is full.

This is a festival that is celebrated across the country; on this day, people will return to their families, eat delicious food, and enjoy the bright moon.

However, the nature of some industries determines that practitioners in this industry not only cannot rest on this day, but will even be busier. Catering is one of these industries.

Because Xu’s fast food restaurant undertook the meal standard of Nanyuan Community, some employees had to stay to complete this task; Xu’s lo-mei restaurant had to stay and work overtime because people’s demand for lo-mei increased during the festival. .

The holidays have to wait until after the festival is over, which makes everyone complain a lot, but in Xu'an, according to the labor law, they are given three times the salary for the Mid-Autumn Festival and three days for the National Day, and twice the salary for other days. After the payment, all these complaints disappeared.

"Bald Chen, Boss Chen! Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! I brought you some food made in the store, and some local products from Qingyan Province. Eat something fresh!"

"Uncle Lin, this is the lo-mei made by our Xu's lo-mei shop. These are the special crops of Hezibao. Brown rice and arrowroot powder are good for the spleen and stomach. There are also some chestnuts and walnuts that can be eaten as snacks. I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival ah!"

"Uncle Sun, the Mid-Autumn Festival is here, and I have prepared some small gifts for you Disabled Persons' Federation members and staff to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. They are not expensive. They are all braised vegetables from the lo-mei shop and special agricultural products from Hezibao. Let's eat something fresh. , have a good festival!"

"Second Grandpa, every household in Uncle Dongliang's village has them, and they are all worthless. Just eat to your heart's content."

"."

Generally speaking, Mid-Autumn Festival gifts are given out two or three days in advance, or even a week in advance.However, it took a long time for the local products from Hezibao to be delivered, and they had to be packaged and packaged. After coming and going, it was delayed until the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival to send out all the gifts.

It's okay, at least it wasn't sent out on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?

Xu Anan sent them to cooperating bosses and customers, big and small, and even the customers who registered membership cards were not left behind, and each of them was sent a piece of [free one catty of vegetarian dishes (any) 】 Holiday coupons.

Although Ye Ning spent several thousand yuan to activate this function, Xu An was happy to spend the money. After all, without their help, he would not have been able to win the furniture store so smoothly.

I thought it was over like this, but it wasn't!
The online Taobao shop held a [free shipping] event, so that some customers who are interested in the products in Xu's braised meat, but hesitated because the free shipping is only available for more than 28 yuan, have the opportunity to place an order to try and develop new customers. source.

Offline, whether it's the company's employee meals, takeaway orders, or customers who come to consume, they all get a free bowl of Haishi's special salty glutinous rice balls!
Salty glutinous rice balls are a special snack in Haishi. No matter what the festival is, they will be cooked and eaten once, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is no exception.

Kohlrabi, the scientific name is kohlrabi, shredded for later use; pork liver and lean meat are cut for later use; then oysters, fresh shrimps, and crabs, mud worms and other ingredients can be added if possible.Of course, this is the seafood version of salty glutinous rice balls. Others include pure pork version of salty glutinous rice balls, chicken soup version of salty glutinous rice balls, sausage version of salty glutinous rice balls and other versions with different ingredients.

I made money this year. The salty glutinous rice balls made by Xu An are luxurious versions. Fresh shrimps, oysters, crabs, mud worms, etc. are thrown in for free. Grandma Xu thought she was eating seafood stew.
In the afternoon, it’s time to make various Haishi special pastries. The salty ones include taro cake and mille-feuille water cake, and the sweet ones include yellow sugar water glutinous rice balls, thousand-layer red date cake and so on.

Once the water in the cauldron is boiled and the bamboo steamer is put on, baskets of pastries are continuously transported from the kitchen to the heavy and generous table in the main room. Red, yellow, white, and transparent, there are all kinds of pastries. They were all cut into rhombus-shaped cubes and stacked on the ceramic plate with blue strokes, which is really beautiful.

Xu Kang and Xu Le are the most joyful about this. As long as they sit at home obediently, they will have all kinds of different foods to eat, and it is really a festival.

After being busy until the moon sacrifice at night, Xu An was finally free and sat in the small courtyard with his family, enjoying the evening breeze, looking at the bright moon, and chatting some family gossip.

"Grandma, the opening ceremony of the store on Qianjin Street will be held tomorrow. After the opening, I, Heping, and two uncles will go to Hezibao for about three to five days."

While chatting, Xu An remembered that because he was too busy these days, he forgot to tell his grandma about the business trip. Now that he remembered, he quickly made up for it.

"Huh?" Grandma Xu looked at Xu An in astonishment: "Didn't you just go there a few days ago? Why are you going there again? The cooperation over there is not going well?"

"No, there is a new cooperation"

Although Grandma Xu may not understand, Xu An did not hesitate, and told Grandma Xu about the cooperation with Hezibao in detail, and also showed her the photos of Hezibao.

"It's not easy for them to live. Now that you are capable, you can handle one by one. We are also helped by the villagers. Otherwise, it would be difficult to rely on an old woman like me." Speaking of this, Grandma Xu's The words began to increase, and he began to recall the past.

But as soon as this topic started, it was interrupted by Xu Kang and Xu Le.

"Brother, are you going to stay away for many days again?"

After Xu Le realized the meaning of Xu An's business trip, he suddenly felt that the delicious bean paste mooncakes were no longer fragrant. With a flick of his little hand, the mooncakes were put back on the dinner plate, and a little person sat on Xu An's left leg.

The other little guy was not far behind when he saw this, he sat on his right leg before he could put down the pastry, and stuffed the drool-stained pastry into Xu An's mouth obediently, yelling 'Brother, eat'.

Although they are brothers and sisters, those who should be disgusted will still be disgusted. Xu An grabbed Xu Kang's hand, took off the pastry in his hand and put it on the table, took paper and wiped their little hands clean, and then He hugged the two of them and answered Xu Le's question just now.

"That's right, this time at most five days, that is, the time to tear off five calendars, and my brother will be back."

"That will take a long time, one, two, three, four, five." Xu Le showed Xu An his small hand with five fingers spread to the largest extent in surprise, and screamed: "Brother, you have to leave one hand for so long ah!"

one hand
Xu An was amused by Xu Le's adjective, pinched Xu Le's face and said with a smile: "Yes, it takes as long as one hand! My brother went to find delicious walnuts for you. I can make amber walnuts for you guys, sweet amber walnuts, do you want to eat them!"

"If we don't eat, can my brother go home every day?" Xu Kang asked very quickly.

Um.
After these two little guys went to kindergarten, why is it getting harder and harder to fool them?Even the trick of eating delicious food is not working?

"Brother!" Xu Le rolled his eyes, his big eyes were full of naked calculations: "Brother, can you take us to find walnuts together? Let's carry a small schoolbag and help brother pick up walnuts, okay?"

Xu An subconsciously wanted to say no, but he thought that this time he was only going to inspect the quality of crops in other villages, and there were many children of the same age as Xu Kang and Xu Le in Hezibao, so they could experience it with their peers. The joy of picking mushrooms in the mountains, you can also run around the mountains and plains
The more Xu An thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was feasible. This time he also brought Heping and the two clan uncles with him, so he was not afraid to lose sight of these two brats.

In addition, this period of time happens to be during the National Day, and the two little guys don't have to go to kindergarten. Isn't this the right time, place and people?

The two villains seem to have seen Xu An's intentions. At first you talked to each other and acted childishly, and the kisses fell on Xu An's face one after another as if they didn't want money. Xu An's face was full of saliva.
"Okay, okay, how about taking you to pick walnuts, and then take you to pick mushrooms? There are many children of the same age as you over there, and you can play together by then!"

Xu An successfully fell under the offensive of the two, and agreed to their request, which caused them to cheer. Finally, after leaving two big kisses on Xu An's face, Qi Qi fell from Xu An's leg. Going up and down, the two little heads got together, muttering and discussing something.

"Grandma, why don't you go for a walk together? The scenery over there is beautiful, and you can help watch these two little guys, so that they won't run around and find no one when they're happy." Xu An turned to look at Grandma Xu.

"I'll forget it. Last time I heard you said that it's a train, a bus, and a tricycle, and I have to walk for a while to get there. My feet are just right, but I can't walk that far." Grandma Xu said nothing. He waved his hand and refused hesitantly.

Xu An wanted to persuade him again, but when he thought about the traffic situation on the road at Hezibao, and also thought that grandma's leg was not too long, it was not suitable for walking long distances, so he could only hold back the idea of ​​letting grandma go to Hezibao for a walk. .

When will the road at Hezibao be repaired and the traffic will be more convenient, let's think about it again. In my previous life, my grandma was in good health until she was reborn. There is plenty of time and opportunity.

"elder brother!"

The shouts of the two brought Xu An back from his thoughts, and he looked at the two little guys blankly, waiting for their next words.

"Brother, are there many children like us over there?"

"Yes, there are many, many, super many, more than all the children in your class combined!"

"So many!"

"Yeah, what's the matter?"

"We want to bring picture books and toys to play with them, but with so many children, we don't have enough picture books and toys!"

The two boys immediately became distressed when they heard the words, and their two chubby little faces were wrinkled into a ball, just like the big wrinkled meat buns.

"It's like this!" Xu An pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "Then let's go and buy some more painting books and toys for them, shall we?"

"not bad!"

"Okay, my brother will take you to the mall tomorrow night, how about choosing toy picture books for the children over there?"

"Okay! Brother is the best! MUA~"
