Chapter 376: Getting pickier, I can't stand the small restaurant's dishes

Xu Damao furrowed his brow and said:

How about it, Eldest Uncle, going over there to hang out?

Yi Zhonghai lifted his eyelids, glanced at him, but remained motionless and didn't speak.

Xu Damao didn't bother with that anymore, put his mobile phone on the table, sat down, and said:

"My wife has already gone back to get the dishes and drinks, and you still won't let me sit?"

Yi Zhonghai gave a muffled grunt and shifted over a bit.

After sitting down, seeing that nobody was speaking, Xu Damao glanced at Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt, then at Yan Bu Gui and Yi Zhonghai, and asked:

"No, this, elders, what's the situation?"

Huaihua: "Oh, those three already made a bet before you came back."

"Before my Sha Shu returns, whoever speaks first is a puppy."

Xu Damao smiled and said nothing.

On the other side.

Shazhu came out of the back kitchen with a dark face.

He had secretly gotten his apprentice to cook several dishes, but the manager kept sitting in the dining hall.

He couldn't take them away.

Seeing that the restaurant was about to close, he reluctantly left.

"Yo, Head Chef, going home?"

The manager was sitting in the dining hall, saw Shazhu, and quickly said:

"Yes, going home."

Shazhu gave a muffled grunt, nodded, and said:

The manager asked: "You didn't bring any dishes back today, did you?"

Shazhu looked sullen: "No, what's with that look of yours?"

"I have empty hands, how could I have brought dishes?"

The manager laughed: "I didn't say you brought them."

"I'm just asking you, aren't I?"

Shazhu: "No need to ask; since it's the boss's rule, I won't break it."

Manager: "Should say won't do it again."

"Because you already did it before."

Shazhu flared: "Are you gonna die if you don't rub salt in people's wounds?"

Manager: "Yo, you're getting angry now?"

"Sure enough, the Head Chef has a short temper."

Shazhu: "Good that you know."

"If you make me angry......"

"I'll tell you, even a desperate dog will jump over a wall."

The manager laughed: "Head Chef isn't a dog, so he won't jump over a wall."

Shazhu: "No, what are you talking about?"

"Who are you calling a dog?"

Manager: "I'm saying you're not a dog, is that wrong?"

Shazhu let out a cold snort, said nothing, and left with a dark face.

Arriving at a small restaurant, Shazhu looked left and right, let out a long sigh, and walked in with his hands behind his back.

After about half an hour.

Five dishes were cooked; Shazhu opened the lunchbox, frowned involuntarily, and asked:

"Boss, you only cooked dishes like this?"

Boss: "What? Got an opinion?"

Shazhu: "Plenty of opinions; for a good dish, color, fragrance, and taste are most important."

"Your dish lacks color and fragrance, so how could it have taste?"

The boss laughed: "Comrade, if it had flavor, the dish would have spoiled."

Shazhu: "......"

Boss: "If there's nothing else, comrade, please leave; we're closing."

Shazhu: "No, you're still kicking me out?"

Boss: "Not kicking you out; I just said we're about to close."

"With you coming now, we'll have to close a bit later."

"Now the dishes are cooked and packed, you've paid; if there's nothing else, can you go?"

"Of course, if you want to eat here, I won't stop you."

Shazhu glared at the boss, walked out while cursing in his heart: "May your closure be prosperous!"

Siheyuan.

Yu Haitang took the side dishes and drinks, and also grabbed a bottle of five-grain liquor.

"five-grain liquor, still okay?"

Yan Bu Gui and Liu Haizhong looked, and their eyes lit up involuntarily.

Liu Haizhong casually picked up the alcohol, glanced at it, then put it back down.

Seeing everyone silent, Xu Damao frowned and asked unhappily:

"Hey, old guys, can you say something?"

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, yet still no one speaks.

Xu Damao then said: "If you don't speak, I'm leaving."

Qin Huairu hurriedly said: "Hey, Xu Damao, the San Da Ye aren't targeting you."

"Huaihua just said that, they're placing a bet."

Xu Damao: "I think it's aimed at me."

"The bet is fake, targeting me is real."

"Well, we can't afford to accompany."

After saying that, he stood up, picked up the five-grain liquor on the table, and then said:

"Can't afford to accompany, we're leaving."

"Willing to bring alcohol to drink with you, yet you won't give us this face."

"Hmph, Haitang, let's go."

Xu Damao and Yu Haitang just left, and Shazhu immediately carried Xiao Dang, holding several lunch boxes, walking into Zhongyuan.

Just now at the door, he met Xiao Dang.

Xiao Dang insisted on letting him carry him inside.

"Three uncles, it's fine, not giving Xu Damao this face is right, ah."

"Come on, today's dishes are cooked by a newly accepted disciple, might not be tasty."

"Everyone, just make do."

"Next time, next time I'll personally cook, today I'm too busy."

Shazhu said, placing the lunch boxes on the table.

"Open them all, you're all hungry, right?"

"Xiao Dang, should you come down now?"

Xiao Dang shouted: "No, no, carry me to the end."

Shazhu grinned foolishly, carrying Xiao Dang while walking to the opposite table, and said:

"Okay, okay, carry to the end, carry to the end."

"Is this okay, little girl?"

Huaihua: "Sister, you're really something, Sha Shu is already tired enough for a day, yet you still make him carry."

Shazhu put Xiao Dang down, gave a silly laugh, and said: "It's fine, it's fine."

Xiao Dang, with a proud and pouty look, said: "I'm just like this, what can you do?"

Yan Bu Gui: "Hurry up and open them, our bellies are starving flat."

Shazhu walked over to Yi Zhonghai's side and said:

"How about it, three uncles?"

"As the Eldest Uncle, I came late, are you anxious?"

Saying this, Shazhu let out a sigh and sat in the seat Xu Damao had just occupied.

He felt bitter inside.

These dishes were still packed by him borrowing money from his disciple at a small restaurant.

Upon seeing the dishes' appearance, he immediately thought of Qin Huairu's family and those several uncles.

Their mouths have become increasingly picky, I don't know if they can stomach it.

He was a bit worried.

"No, Shazhu, this newly accepted disciple of yours should be expelled."

"Can this dish be eaten?"

"The stir-fry isn't as good-looking as your Second Aunt's cooking."

Liu Haizhong looked at the lunch boxes and said.

"Just make do, it's a newly accepted disciple, nothing can be done."

"Today the restaurant's business is too good, we really can't split ourselves."

Yan Bu Gui: "I say, Shazhu, you're trying to starve us to death, right?"

"No, this meat is a bit tough to eat."

When Yan Bu Gui picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, his brow involuntarily furrowed.

Shazhu: "San Da Ye, your mouth is getting pickier and pickier."

"As said, a newly arrived disciple cooked it, just make do."

Qin Huairu: "It's all your fault, you've made everyone's mouths increasingly picky."

Shazhu: "Again, it's my fault?"

"Fine, fine, it's my fault, it's my fault."

"Where's the wine? Huaihua, why are you just standing there? Hurry up and get the wine."
