Chapter 364: The New Guy
Qi Rui didn't doubt it. He thought the red sauce was spicy, but he didn't expect it to taste sour and sweet.
"I've never eaten it, but it tastes good. What is it made of?"
"Big brother, this is made from cherry tomatoes. There are a lot of them planted in the vegetable garden, but they haven't turned red yet. We can eat them when they turn red."
Zhou Minghua took over the conversation.
This is one of her favorite fruits.
After pouring the oil from the pot into a porcelain bowl, they packed their things and took a donkey cart to the restaurant for lunch.
"Sir, where are you eating? Do you want to go to the restaurant with us?"
"I'll go back to the camp and not disturb you from eating."
He felt embarrassed to always eat in restaurants and trouble the whole family to take care of him.
After harnessing the donkey cart and locking the door, the few people started on their journey, and Qi Rui escorted them along the way on horseback.
Before parting, Zhou Mingshu did not forget to give Qi Rui a portion of fried mushrooms.
Qi Rui went back happily with a bag of hot mushrooms in his arms.
When Rufeng saw his master coming back, he hurried to prepare lunch for him.
Seeing the master's happy face, I knew he was in a good mood.
"Rufeng, pour this bag of mushrooms onto a plate and serve it up."
Rufeng took the cloth bag, opened it and smelled it. It smelled so good~
This must have been given by the young lady from the Zhou family. No wonder the master is so happy.
It seems that they had a very pleasant conversation this time.
Rufeng was also very happy in his heart. After all, he followed his master. If his master was happy, he was happy. If his master was sad, he would not be much better off.

Towards the afternoon, a bullock cart stopped in front of the restaurant.
When Zhou Laosan took a look, he saw that it was his uncle and Xiaofan.
"Uncle, Xiaofan, please come in and sit down. I have been waiting for you for several days. If you don't come, I will go to your house to invite you."
A few people went to the backyard while chatting and laughing.
When everyone saw Chen Fan coming, they all came over to say hello.
"Big sister, Xiaofan is now in your hands. If this child says something wrong or does something wrong, you can beat and scold him. His mother and I will not feel bad. This kid is very tough and will not do if we don't discipline him well. I was worried about him coming here because I was afraid that he would cause trouble for you."
"Hey, Old Chen, where did you go? How can I beat or scold our own child at will? Don't worry, Xiaofan is smart. The things you worry about will not happen."
Chen Fan's room was cleaned up for him early in the morning.
He just spread out the bedding he brought and went to sleep.
The room is fully equipped with tables and cabinets.
"Xiao Fan, you have to work hard. If you can't do it at your aunt's house, you will be hopeless. I will never care about you again."
Old Chen hopes that his son can work honestly and steady himself so that he can support the whole family in the future.
When he can't work anymore, we'll have to rely on this brat.
"Dad, don't worry, I will do my best." Chen Fan assured again and again.
Old Chen and Old Mrs. Zhou sat in the yard and talked for a while before they got up and prepared to go back.
This journey will take quite some time, and it will be dark if we don't move on.
Boss Zhou put the wrapped roast duck and braised meat on the ox cart and asked his uncle and aunt to go home and eat.
Old Chen waved his hands and refused.
"Don't spend money, you still have to sell it to customers."
"Uncle, just take it. There are many things in the store. Let me show it to my aunt when I get back."
"Okay, I'll take it. You guys are busy, so you don't have to see me off. I'll be back soon."
Everyone still saw them off.
Chen Fan and Boss Zhou and others are cousins, so they naturally have a good relationship. Working here is as comfortable as being at home.
"Chen Fan, I think you should have come earlier. Let's work together as brothers to make our restaurant bigger and stronger."
"That's right. There are more and more workers in this mine, and we brothers are really a little overwhelmed. It's just right that you came. If you didn't come, we would have to hire someone else."
"Brother, don't worry, I will work hard with you and save money to marry a wife."
Chen Fan has long wanted to live a stable life, and he doesn't want his parents to worry about him all the time.
But things did not go as planned. His previous job was getting worse and worse. He could not earn any money, and naturally could not save any money. He really could not stay there any longer, so he had to ask his aunt for help.
Fortunately, his cousin's family runs a restaurant, otherwise he really wouldn't know what to do.
After packing his clothes, shoes and other things, Chen Fan tied on an apron and started to work.
His aunt and cousins did not assign him any work, but he could choose to do some things that he was capable of doing first.
Anyway, they are all his old professions, so any job is easy for him to do.
"Uncle Xiaofan, this restaurant is a bit remote. Except for the miners getting off work and the soldiers' camp taking a break, there are usually few people. I wonder if you can adapt to it?"
"Don't worry, San Ya. It's better to be quiet. I'm a little annoyed by the noise in the town. Now it's good to be with the birds and animals in the mountains. It's quiet."
"Hahaha, okay. If you feel bored, you can come and live in the village with us. Grandma has prepared a bed for you in the village."
"Okay, I'll go with you guys if I want to go back to bed."
-
Chen Fan first familiarized himself with the place inside and out.
I feel that the procedures of this restaurant are different from those of restaurants and hotels in town.
Other places accept cash, but here we only accept meal tickets.
It's really strange.
The miners were busy scrambling for food and queuing up for dinner, but they also noticed that there were new people in the restaurant.
"Brother Zhou, is your restaurant hiring waiters?"
"Haha, this is my cousin. He will help out in the restaurant from now on. Please take good care of him, brothers."
"It's easy to talk about."
Everyone was laughing and looking for an empty seat to eat. They had been busy all day and were almost exhausted and starving.
For them, having enough food to eat is the top priority.
Chen Fan took a storage basin and a泔水桶, and he would collect the food from whoever had finished eating.
Everyone ate very fast, as if they were fighting a war.
Just leave after eating, without any delay.
Compared with those idle people in the town, they are two completely different situations.
Carrying two buckets and packing things, Chen Fan only worked for a quarter of an hour before his arms began to tremble.
He finally understood why San Ya said she was tired.
This is really a bit tiring.
Before, he just talked a lot, flattered the customers, served a few side dishes and collected a few plates from time to time, and didn't feel tired at all.
Now he has been cleaning the table, which is really a hard job.
It was such a big restaurant, and he wasn't the only one cleaning the tables.
Zhou Mingshu was cleaning up on the other side.
She is young and weak, so she can only do as much as she can.
If there is more plates in hand than can fit, send them to the backyard for the dishwasher to wash.
