When Gong Jian saw Hu Zi's shout, he actually called out Blacksmith Wang. At this time, it was too late for him to leave, so he could only stand up straight and wait for Blacksmith Wang to appear.
Sure enough, after a while, the door was pushed open, and Blacksmith Wang's burly figure walked out. When he saw that it was Gong Jian standing in the shop, he immediately burst into laughter.
"I asked who it was, and it turned out to be little brother Gong Jian. I said that our tiger is the smartest, and I have long wanted to invite him to have a meal with him." Blacksmith Wang patted his son proudly
head.
"I have looked for Lao Tian several times, but he always said you are not at home. The old boy must be trying to trick me again. My tiger is so powerful that he immediately dragged Brother Gong to my house."
Gong Jian also didn't expect that not only Shopkeeper Tian was looking for him, but Blacksmith Wang was also looking for him several times. He smiled quickly and explained: "Master Wang, what Shopkeeper Tian said is really the truth. I just rushed home from the county yesterday.
Today I originally went to the grocery store to look for him, but unexpectedly, I missed him. While I was still waiting for someone in the grocery store, I bumped into Huzi."
After that, he didn't know what to say anymore. Could it be that he was dragged here to eat good food by a kid of this age?
Blacksmith Wang also seemed to know Gong Jian's embarrassment. He quickly smiled and said: "Haha, that's just right. If shopkeeper Tian is here, the old boy will definitely not let you come to my place. It just so happens that today
Let's have a good meal while the old boy is away. I have a lot to say to you."
With that said, Blacksmith Wang didn't wait for Gong Jian to refuse, grabbed his arm and walked towards the backyard. As he walked, his loud voice sounded like he was shouting from the backyard.
"Hey, boss, second-in-command, you guys all need to take a rest first. Go to the back and tell your mistress and ask her to prepare a good table of noodles. I want to have a good meal with Brother Gong."
At this time, Gong Jian was even more emotional, the father and son were really alike. He was just being dragged away.
The term "boss" and "second" mentioned by Blacksmith Wang should be the names of his two apprentices. Gong Jian did not expect that he would address his apprentices in such a direct and rude way, which really fits the character of Blacksmith Wang.
At this time, he had no doubt that Huzi was definitely his biological son. The styles of the father and son were exactly the same. They would pull away when they saw someone and talk about eating delicious food. This was probably the most sincere way they treated their friends.
performance.
Gong Jian no longer refused at this time. Since he did not wait for Shopkeeper Tian today, it would be a good choice to chat with Blacksmith Wang.
Soon, Blacksmith Wang's two apprentices set up a large round table in the same room where Gong Jian and Shopkeeper Tian came to discuss hotpot making.
Then they brought plates of sliced vegetables and delicacies from the back, as well as plates of thinly sliced beef and mutton.
As soon as he saw this posture, Gong Jian knew that it looked like he could have a good hot pot meal at noon today.
I think that after Blacksmith Wang came back from the grocery store, he had already made a hot pot for his family, and his family's love for hot pot can be seen. Also, in this cold winter, what is more enjoyable than eating hot pot?
.
Thinking of this, Gong Jian couldn't help but feel some resentment in his heart. You must know that if it weren't for the person in charge, he would have packed up the hot pot and took it away before leaving last time. So Gong Jian has been
I think my wish to let my parents have a taste of hot pot has not been fulfilled yet.
It is such a happy and comfortable thing for the family to sit around the table and eat hot and steaming hot pot on a cold winter day. But to this day, Gong Jian has not fulfilled this small wish.
, this can all be blamed on the overbearing general manager.
As soon as Blacksmith Wang pulled Gong Jian into this room, he ran away in a hurry, saying that he was going to find a jar of good wine. Sure enough, at this time, Blacksmith Wang hugged a small porcelain jar and left.
Come in. As soon as he walked in, he saw the dishes on the round table.
He laughed awkwardly twice, and then said: "Hey, I asked them to prepare delicious food, but why did they just bring the hot pot? Hey, isn't this just trying to do what they want?"
Blacksmith Wang was about to call his two apprentices and ask them to change tables to eat, but was stopped by Gong Jian. "Master Wang, there is no need to change. This weather is the best to eat hot pot."
Seeing that Blacksmith Wang was still insisting, Gong Jian quickly added fuel to the fire: "It can't be changed. I've been craving for hot pot for a long time. Won't Master Wang let me satisfy my craving today?"
Blacksmith Wang patted Gong Jian on the shoulder. He felt that the reason why Gong Jian said this was entirely to take care of his own face: "Brother Gong, you are trying to save me, and you have said everything. How could you possibly do that?"
Where's the hot pot? You invented this thing."
Gong Jian showed a wry smile: "Oh, Master Wang, you don't know. It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. The hot pot I asked you to make last time was forcibly taken away by the manager. Since then, I
I really have never had hot pot again. Today I have to ask Master Wang to make me another hot pot so that everyone in my family can eat hot pot."
When Blacksmith Wang heard what Gong Jian said, he gave up the idea of letting his two apprentices reorganize the banquet.
He looked at Gong Jian with some sympathy and hurriedly agreed: "No problem, Brother Gong. These days, the boss and the second are working hard to make hot pots. When you leave, take one back with you."
Although he didn't know the specific content of the business discussion between Gong Jian and the chief steward last time, he also noticed that the last time he had hot pot, the chief steward's eager eyes would glance at the copper from time to time.
hot pot.
At this time, when he heard Gong Jian say that the chief steward forcibly took the hot pot away in the end, he didn't feel strange at all. The chief steward's eyes were too eager that day, and he would do everything possible to take the pot away. He
I actually forgot about this one.
Blacksmith Wang was completely relieved now. "Okay, today I just want to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha. Since getting this good thing, the whole family has fallen in love with hot pot. No matter whether there are guests or not, they will set up a big table.
Let's have a meal together. This hot pot is really good."
Gong Jian was also very happy to hear Blacksmith Wang praising hot pot so highly. The more Blacksmith Wang likes hot pot, it means the better the prospect of hot pot, and the more popular it will be with the general public. And since then, I think,
The income from his cooperation with Tian Ji should also be considerable. (To be continued)
