Chapter 86 The Chef's Candidate

Lingcao was very happy about this, and he was waiting for Xu Chengmiao to completely hate him, kicking him out like Su Qingyao.

A few white hairs grew out of Uncle He's anxious head. Among so many people accompanying him, he was probably the only one who was really worried about Xu Chengmiao and had real plans for Xu's family.But Xu Chengmiao didn't appreciate his painstaking efforts at all.

In fact, after Xu Chengmiao was eunuched, his mind changed drastically.He became extremely selfish and always felt that everyone in this world owed him.He didn't think about anyone at all, not even his father.Do everything your own way, regardless of the consequences.He always felt that if he lost the joy of being a man, his life would be worse than death.

Supported by such thoughts, he desperately plundered, wanting to get everything to make up for his loss.

Lingcao observed all this silently, calculating in her heart when it would be better for her to leave.

During these days, Su Qingyao took Xiaohua to work hard, which also aroused the enthusiasm of Erdong and Master Li.After ten or so days of busy work, it has finally seen results. This Juxian Building is no longer the old and decayed look it used to be.The windows inside are bright and clean, and everything is completely new. On the surrounding walls, there are many ink paintings that Su Qingyao drew when she was free. They are all very simple words, but the artistic conception is so meaningful.Su Qingyao's hanging is actually a decoration.

The inside of the counter was also clean, and simply put an abacus and a ledger. Su Qingyao imitated the appearance of a modern restaurant, and installed a cabinet with many grids inside the counter, which contained all kinds of wine she bought.The drawer under the counter is still empty, but Su Qingyao has already prepared a lot of change, waiting to be used when the business opens.

There are more than a dozen large round tables for eating in the hall, which are cleaned every day to reflect people's shadows, and there are teacups and teapots that Su Qingyao bought newly on them.A circle of red-lacquered chairs is arranged neatly under each round table.Looking upstairs, Su Qingyao hangs a few paintings on the wall in the corridor that are the same as those on the first floor. Of course, those are also her masterpieces.

Push open the door of each private room, and you will see that it is very elegantly organized inside.Su Qingyao finally stopped worrying about money, and bought some pretty good paintings in the calligraphy and painting shop to hang on the wall.I don't know what was sprayed in the room, but there was a faint floral fragrance.Some of the furniture here are from the past, and some were bought by Su Qingyao.But overall, there seems to be no sense of incongruity.

Come down from upstairs, let's go to the backyard to see the kitchen.This is a four-room tile-roofed house with two small wing rooms.These two wing rooms became the resting place for Er Dong and Master Li.The main room is the kitchen.In fact, Su Qingyao was a little reluctant to use the whole house as a kitchen.But she changed her mind, she would still live here after Lingcao came back, and besides, she would recruit some buddies to come in.

Where to live is a problem.But the clever Erdong has already solved this problem for Su Qingyao: "Shopkeeper Su, how about this, the guy you hired can just rent a room for them in the residential area behind our restaurant. This is for the homeless." For those who return, if the guy you recruit is local, let him go back to live. You can just let him eat. Master Li and I will stay in the shop at night to look after the shop."

Su Qingyao thought about Erdong's proposal carefully, and finally nodded.

Erdong saw that Su Qingyao was in a good mood, so he boldly said something he wanted to say before: "Shopkeeper, there is one thing I want to ask you, aren't you recruiting a buddy? I There are two candidates here, and I can assure you of their character, they are definitely not those lazy, slippery, deep-minded people."

Su Qingyao became interested: "Who are they, please tell me first?"

"Okay!" Erdong coughed lightly, and began to chat with Su Qingyao: "This first one is Xiao Zhao from our village. His mother left early, and now there is a sick grandmother and a sick grandmother at home." Injured father, his father accidentally fell down while cutting firewood on the mountain last month, and now he just wants to find a job to earn money to see a doctor for his family."

"I was thinking, last time the shopkeeper said that our wages doubled, which is forty copper coins, which is enough for Xiao Zhao's grandma and his father to buy medicine for three months! I just wanted to let Xiao Zhao is here with us."

Speaking of this, Erdong bowed his head in embarrassment.He was taking advantage of the proprietress' soft-heartedness.

Su Qingyao sighed and said, "How is Little Zhao?"

Er Dong's eyes lit up, and Su Qingyao's words were most likely to be accurate. He said happily: "Xiao Zhao is a careless person, but he is very serious in his work, and he doesn't have any tricks. I can guarantee this!"

Su Qingyao smiled slightly and said, "What about the second one?"

Although Su Qingyao did not give a clear answer, the clever Erdong had already guessed five points from Su Qingyao's expression.

"The second one, that's my elder brother Da Dong." Er Dong said.

Su Qingyao was surprised, because Erdong never said that he had a second brother.But she still said with a good temper: "Er Dong, I have never seen you say that you have a big brother?"

A wry smile appeared on Erdong's face: "My eldest brother is a prodigal son. He only knows how to spend money, but never earns money. He is too old to marry a wife. He is lazy and stupid. The shopkeeper, you want to marry a wife." Forget it, and find another one for you.”

Su Qingyao asked suspiciously: "Erdong, what will your elder brother do?"

Er Dong said: "He used to be a shopkeeper in a silk and satin village, but after he stole the money from the cabinet, he was found out and kicked out. He kept yelling that he didn't move the money, but who would believe it! Shopkeeper, this one Don't spread the matter to the outside world!"

Su Qingyao was even more confused. When Erdong introduced Xiao Zhao, he praised him throughout the article, but when he came to his elder brother, he said so much that he was not here.What is the reason here?
Erdong looked at Su Qingyao's probing eyes, and beads of sweat fell on his forehead. Don't look at Su Qingyao as a female shopkeeper, I heard that she is still a concubine, but she can support such a big restaurant by herself. Su Qingyao didn't worry about it?Swept by her beautiful eyes, Erdong immediately felt like a cold wind swept over him.Heart-shattering.

Su Qingyao thought for a long time, and finally said: "Hurry up tomorrow, you should come in with two people and show me!"

Er Dong quickly agreed.

Su Qingyao said, "Come with me." Then she got up and walked towards the kitchen.

Erdong didn't know why, but he still followed Su Qingyao's footsteps.After entering the kitchen, Su Qingyao pointed to a smooth radish on the table and said, "Slice it into shreds."
