Chapter 51 Xu Youliang's Guarantee
"Brother He, what are you talking about? Sister-in-law, if you have anything to do in the future, just tell me. It is said that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. As long as I can do it, I will do my best!"
Yi Zhonghai picked up the wine glass, clinked glasses with He Daqing, and said with a happy face.
He Daqing was very kind to him. After eating the medicinal food made by He Daqing, he felt energetic every day. If it weren't for his average financial situation, Yi Zhonghai would have wanted to eat this medicinal food every day.
"That's right, Sister Huairu, if there's anything you don't understand in the yard, just ask me."
Tao Huilan also smiled, took a sip of wine, looked up and down at the pretty lady in front of her, and thought to herself, I don't know if He Daqing thinks that Qin Huairu is better in Kung Fu or I am better. Little girl, you will have a lot of trouble tonight.
Not knowing what she was thinking of, Tao Huilan stopped looking at Qin Huairu and covered up her embarrassment with laughter.
He Daqing, on the other hand, took Qin Huairu and walked around the yard one by one.
The chef invited by He Daqing was the chef from Fengzeyuan, and the wine he bought was the top-quality Niulanshan Erguotou. The neighbors enjoyed the delicious food and wine, and the scene was very lively.
The party lasted for two hours before it slowly dispersed.
And over there in the slum.
After dealing with all the crowd, until the banquet was over, Xu Youliang finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked into his wedding room with a tired face.
For so many years, he has always dreamed of finding a wife and getting married, but he didn't expect that he would be so exhausted on the wedding day.
"Xu Youliang, do you remember what you promised me?"
However, Xu Youliang had just entered the room and hadn't even sat down when he saw Jia Zhang staring at him with anger and sullenness.
"Ah? What's the matter?"
Xu Youliang drank a lot of wine and his head was a little confused for a while.
"Xu Youliang, you just said it, and you forgot it right after you said it? We are going back to my place tomorrow. You promised me that you would bring a good chef and good wine to entertain the neighbors!"
Jia Zhang looked at Xu Youliang angrily.
The wedding is over, and now it's time to settle the accounts.
When Jia Zhang thought about how things had gone wrong today and how she had lost face, she became furious.
"Hey, I almost forgot about that."
Xu Youliang slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
"Xiao Zhang, don't worry. I know someone who works in a machinery factory. I heard that there is a chef in their factory who cooks delicious food. I heard that he used to cook for the palace. I ate it once and it was delicious. So, I'll go and invite him back right away!"
The machinery factory had just been established not long ago, and Xu Youliang had a good relationship with Liu Feng from the machinery factory. Liu Feng had invited him to dinner before, and he was deeply impressed by the chef's cooking skills.
And this is also the reason why he dared to agree to Jia Zhang's request.
"Machine factory? Are you sure?"
Jia Zhang was just an ordinary woman who didn't understand the seriousness of the situation. She looked at Xu Youliang suspiciously.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
Xu Youliang waved his hand, took a glass of water from the table and drank it in one gulp, then walked out the door and left on his bicycle.
He did not go directly to find Liu Feng, but went to the Zhengyangmen Tavern first.
"He Laonian, is He Laonian here?"
Xu Youliang shouted towards the tavern.
"Here I am, here I am, Old Xu. Aren't you getting married today? What's the matter?"
Hearing the noise, the door curtain of the tavern was lifted, and Xu Youliang saw a carrot head popping out from inside.
During this break, Xu Youliang also noticed that there seemed to be a girl with twin ponytails sitting in He Laonian's tavern.
However, at this moment, he was busy arranging tomorrow's banquet and did not pay much attention to it.
"Old He, this is what's going on. My wife is coming back tomorrow, so I want to treat the neighbors to a nice meal. I've reserved two large jars for No. 95, Nanluoguxiang. You can deliver them there when the time comes!"
The wine that Xu Youliang drank at the banquet today was from this tavern. It seemed pretty good, so he came here directly to make a reservation.
Originally he wanted to reserve a large tank, which would be enough to deal with the people in the courtyard.
But thinking back to the day when he had caused Jia Zhang to stumble and lose face, he decided to be generous and directly book two large vats.
"No problem, I remember it."
He Laonian smiled and nodded, then patted his chest and made the promise.
The smile on He Laonian's face slowly disappeared only when Xu Youliang's back faded away.
"Wow, this Xu Youliang is so generous that he actually ordered two large jars of wine."
He Laonian touched his nose and his eyes suddenly became bright.
Because Xu Youliang worked at the grain station, he didn't dare to offend him, so what he brought over today was all pure grain wine.
But it’s different when I go back to my parents’ home. It’s just a process. If I add a little water or something, it won’t be noticeable at all.
Well, as for the two large tanks, as long as the proportions are right, no one will notice.
Thinking of this, He Laonian ran to his backyard with a smile and started to work.
After Xu Youliang left the tavern, he went to Liu Feng's house to find the chef.
"Old Xu, you are looking for Nan Yi, right?"
Liu Feng, who was also young at the time, was also very happy to see Xu Youliang.
"It's really unfortunate. A leader is going to host a banquet tomorrow, so I asked Nan Yi to go. I guess he won't be able to come to your place!"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Youliang's face immediately fell.
Jia Zhang cares the most about her face. If she can't hire a good chef, how will she get back at the stage tomorrow?
"Then I'll think of a solution."
Xu Youliang frowned and rode his bicycle to a nearby restaurant to hire a chef.
He thought to himself, He Daqing is from Fengzeyuan, if I find a chef from Badalou, wouldn't I be able to surpass He Daqing's family?
However, the chefs at Badayuan are not ordinary expensive. I have already spent a lot of money on this wedding, so I can't spend money recklessly. After all, after marriage, there are still many places to spend money.
Just when Xu Youliang was feeling worried, he saw a burly man walking out of Xinfeng Tower. No one knew what had happened to him, but there was anger on his face.
"Xinfeng Tower..."
Xu Youliang's heart moved.
Xinfenglou is one of the eight great restaurants in downtown Beijing. The owner of Fengzeyuan where He Daqing worked was actually the chef of Xinfenglou.
Fengzeyuan specializes in Shandong cuisine, and Xinfenglou is also particularly good at Shandong cuisine. Compared with other cuisines, Shandong cuisine is the cheapest.
Thinking of this, Xu Youliang couldn't help but muster up his courage and move forward.
"Master, are you a chef? I'm planning to invite someone to prepare a banquet, and I wonder if you are..."
The man, who was originally angry, couldn't help but raise his head and look at Xu Youliang after hearing this.
"You want to find someone to prepare a banquet?"
"That's right, that's right."
Xu Youliang nodded repeatedly, "There are only ten tables. I wonder how much it costs for one session?"
The fat man waved his hand and said, "I'll take this job. We can talk about the money later."
