The people of Lao Zhou's family hung up the plaque and covered it with red cloth. On the twentieth day, they prepared all the ingredients and drinks. Liu Lang also took two nephews and a niece to stew a lot of things and kneaded them.
There are few steamed buns and a large pot of soup stock is simmered.
Early on the morning of the 21st, the aroma of the broth wafted out, and the aroma of their ingredients was wafting from the three or four shops around.
Zhou Lijun had prepared pens, ink and abacus at the counter early. This was a job she had snatched from her brothers. Even Wu Lang himself did not snatch it from her, and finally decided that she would be the accountant.
Then according to the order of seniority and youth, Wu Lang became the shopkeeper, and Liu Lang was naturally the chef. Zhou Lizhong and Zhou Liwei could only serve as waiters and help the cooks part-time.
Zhou Zuolang felt that Zhou Liwei and Zhou Lijun looked like members of the old Zhou family in other aspects, except for their talent in cooking, they all looked like the second sister-in-law. Unfortunately, Zhou Lizhong was not like the elder sister-in-law in this aspect.
But among the short ones, Zhou Lang went back and forth to choose between the tall ones, and finally chose Zhou Lizhong to stay in the kitchen and help him more.
After Man Bao found out, he volunteered, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Brother Six, I'm busy that day, so I can help in the kitchen."
Liu Lang looked at her for a while and said: "Forget what you say, you can also make a fire."
"What's wrong with the fire? Do you look down on those who make the fire? You must know that a good fire is required for cooking and cooking."
Bai Erlang said: "I can also light a fire."
"Then are you here to help?"
Bai Erlang immediately recovered and shook his head, "Forget it, I'll help you greet the guests in front, but I can help you serve the dishes, I'm good at this."
That being said, Lao Zhou's family doesn't really ask guests to serve food and water. In fact, they are indeed busy enough with so many people, so it doesn't matter if the speed is slower.
Early on the morning of July 21st, the backyard of Zhou Ji Restaurant became busy. Man Bao and three others jumped out of the carriage and waved to Daji. They rushed into the backyard like calves. After taking a deep breath, they said: "Okay.
It smells good."
Zhou Lang smiled, opened a steamer and said, "I made big meat buns, do you want to eat them?"
Although they had already eaten breakfast, the three of them still swallowed and nodded.
Liu Lang served them a bowl of soup and picked up six large meat buns and placed them on the table.
The buns are still warm. When you take a bite, the juices will overflow slightly. The minced meat and the soft flavor of the white noodles are mixed together. It is particularly delicious.
Man Bao exhaled a sigh of satisfaction and asked: "Brother Six, don't we sell breakfast?"
"It's too late today. We won't sell them until tomorrow. The big meat buns are for guests today. How do you like them?"
Man Bao nodded fiercely, "It's delicious."
Liu Lang didn't pay much attention to Man Bao's opinion. He wanted her to say that whatever she ate was delicious. He looked at Bai Shan and Bai Erlang.
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang also nodded, "It's really delicious."
Saturday Lang became more confident and said happily: "That's good, our store will use this to send customers off today, and we will start selling breakfast tomorrow."
Mr. Zhuang calculated the auspicious time and arrived a little earlier with Liu Gui and others. As soon as they sat down on the second floor, shopkeeper Zheng came with a group of people, including Doctor Gu and Doctor Tao.
Only Doctor Ding was left on duty in the drug store, and shopkeeper Xiao Zheng also came.
In addition to them, shopkeeper Zheng Da also invited several of his friends to help them warm up the scene.
Manbao was very happy and invited them to the second floor.
Mr. Zhuang hasn't met shopkeeper Zheng Da yet, so it's a good time to meet him this time.
Shopkeeper Zheng Da had already known from Doctor Ji that Man Bao had a teacher, and she listened to him very much, so he had long wanted to meet her. This was indeed one of the purposes of his coming to Nuanpu this time.
The two of them smiled, bowed their hands to each other, got to know each other, and then sat down to talk together.
After Man Baocai greeted them, new guests came downstairs. She looked down and saw Bai Erlang leading his classmates in.
I was still invited to the second floor...
Bai Shan only invited Feng Zongping, Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo. They came a little later, but they also came at an auspicious time.
All the distinguished guests were invited to sit on the second floor. Shopkeeper Zheng Da did not expect that they would also invite students from the Imperial College. After saying hello politely, he saw Wu Lang, who was downstairs, continuing to greet the guests in the lobby.
There are vegetable farmers he has met in the past few days, butchers who specialize in killing pigs and selling meat, and shop owners on the same street...
As soon as the auspicious time came, the sound of firecrackers rang out, and a group of people stood under the door to watch the excitement. Man Bao was so happy that his palms turned red, and he screamed along with the onlookers.
Wuwulang was about to look for her, but turned around and couldn't find her. He found her when he heard the sound, pulled her forward and said, "Manbao, you are lucky, you are about to pull the red cloth."
Man Bao stretched out his hand and grabbed the red cloth and pulled it down hard, revealing the plaque. Everyone cheered, Wu Lang stepped forward and said to the onlookers: "Today our Zhouji Restaurant is opening, and everyone who comes in to eat will get a free gift."
A big plate of meat buns..."
The onlookers returned the favor one after another. Those who wanted to eat went into the store, while those who didn't want to eat turned around and left.
Many people like to go to newly opened restaurants to eat, because the newly opened restaurants will deliver food on the same day, which is cheap and affordable.
But there are also many people who are not so confident about the newly opened shops.
Wu Lang introduced some guests who were willing to come in for dinner and guided them to their seats. Zhou Liwei then ran to entertain them, reported the names of the dishes, and took a pen to write down the menu.
There was no way, his memory was not that good, so he could only take a note and write down the serial number.
Man Bao ran to the kitchen to help. Liu Lang prepared the food and put it on the table. Zhou Lizhong brought it out in the same way. The speed of serving was pretty good.
After all, Liu Lang had worked in Zhiwei Restaurant and was very familiar with the kitchen work. He quickly got used to this kind of busy work. Zhou Lizhong and the others were a little slower, but they always remembered Liu Lang's words, it's better to be safe than to rush, so they didn't worry about it all the way.
Something went wrong.
Food was also delivered on the second floor. Mr. Zhuang greeted shopkeeper Zheng Da and others on behalf of Manbao, Bai Shan greeted his friends, and Bai Erlang also greeted his classmates.
It's just that everyone is a student of the Imperial College, and they are divided into two tables, so they just get together to talk now.
Feng Zongping and the other three were seniors, and the topic quickly revolved around them.
Feng Zongping was always an acquaintance, but now that someone was talking to him, he talked even more, and soon he became familiar with everyone at the two tables.
Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo are both a bit introverted, and they didn't expect Bai Shan to invite them. The main reason is that Bai Shan seems to be more introverted than them and doesn't like talking to others in the class.
But the three of them were together after all, and had the same circumstances when they entered Guozixue, so even if they were not familiar with Bai Shan, they would come as soon as he invited them.
Only when I arrived did I realize that, except for the three seniors Feng Zongping, the two of them were actually the only classmates invited by Bai Shan. They didn't show it on their faces, but they were a little happy in their hearts.
