Adorable Food Goddess

Chapter 45 Meddling

Ye Jiayao gritted her teeth and paid a hundred coppers for a room with a local name.

Finally got an independent room, no need to mix with men anymore, Ye Jiayao took off her clothes, unwrapped her chest, and took a bath comfortably, it's been almost a month, just wipe it secretly, Ye Jiayao felt that she was It's about to go rancid.

After changing into clean clothes, Ye Jiayao went out to look for food.

Walking to the lobby, I saw some customers arguing with the waiter.

It's so expensive for such an unpalatable food. Are you running a black shop? One of the young men slapped his chopsticks on the table, causing the dishes on the table to shake.

The waiter in the shop seemed to be used to this kind of thing, and he didn't panic at all, and said calmly: I told you, the cook is not here today, so you can't make delicious food, you are the ones who insist on eating here, no wonder who?

You can't fool people casually. Look for yourself, the vegetables are all burnt, the beans are so salty, and this...is this braised pork? The lard residue is almost the same... The chubby guest was very angry .

I'm sorry, no matter how delicious it is, you have to pay for it after you have eaten it anyway. Four dishes and one soup, a total of one tael of silver, here. The waiter stretched out his hand and asked for money.

Do you want money? We don't stay in this store either. Let's go. Several customers packed their luggage and wanted to leave.

Hey...you can't leave, you still haven't paid the rent, if you don't pay the money, I will report to the police. The waiter stepped forward to stop him.

You go to report, we are still looking for a place to reason! What a broken shop, the bedding is dirty, the tea is cold, and the food is fed to pigs. Pay the money, and I will pay it to you. The customer was also very arrogant. .

Ye Jiayao felt that these guests deliberately wanted to renege on the debt. It was a fact that the food was unpalatable, but the room was clean and the tea was hot. Just now she was going to take a bath, and Xiao Er specially sent two pots of hot water over, and the service was not bad. Considerate.

Then I went to ask the accountant who was scared and shrank behind the counter.

How long have they lived in the store, old man?

The accountant said: They have lived here for more than half a month. They have requested two herringbone-sized rooms and only paid a deposit of two taels of silver. Now they still owe six taels of silver!

Then where are your shopkeepers? Ye Jiayao saw that there were only the accountant and the waiter in the shop.

The shopkeeper is not here. If the shopkeeper is here, they can't deny the debt. They just saw the shopkeeper's absence. The accountant said contemptuously.

Ye Jiayao nodded and sneered from the bottom of her heart. She has seen people who eat Bawang meals, but she has not seen people who live in Bawang restaurants.

There was already pushing and shoving, and it seemed that a fight was about to start. Other guests in the inn ran out to watch the commotion when they heard the commotion, and there were also people gathered around outside the inn.

Lu saw the injustice and let out a roar. Ye Jiayao stepped forward to persuade the fight, and said with a smile: Brothers, if you have something to say, don't get angry, anger hurts the liver, it is not good for the body, come here, let's talk inside.

The young man saw a handsome little brother appearing to meddle in his business, they deliberately found fault and quarreled in order to leave, whoever wants to go inside to talk, and talk nicely, calling you a stick. Then he said fiercely: Who are you? What does it matter to you?

Ye Jiayao Shi Shiran said: I also live in a hotel. Just now I heard you said that this is a black shop, so I wanted to ask. If it was a black shop, I would not dare to stay.

The waiter in the shop became anxious: Guest officer, don't listen to their nonsense. Although our inn is small, we provide good service, clearly marked prices, no deception, neighbors can testify.

The service is good ass, you are running a black shop. The fat man muttered with righteous indignation.

It's a black shop, it's a black shop. The two supporting guests raised their arms and echoed.

The waiter's face turned blue with anger: I think you guys want to renege on your debt.

What did you say? That we want to renege on the debt? The young man grabbed the waiter by the neck, his eyes widened.

Ye Jiayao Shi Shiran said: You say this is a black shop, so you have to come up with an explanation, so that those of us who stay in the shop can know it, so as not to follow in your footsteps and suffer a disadvantage, don't you think?

The spectators responded to Ye Jiayao one after another.

The waiter in the shop was very angry. This little brother looked so gentle and gentle, but he turned out to be a shit-stirring stick. He was really mistaken.

The troublemakers were just looking for a reason, but if you really asked him to come up with an explanation, he couldn't come up with it, so he had to talk nonsense.

I won't talk about how bad this store is. The guests who live in this store know it well. The problem is that we have lost something. Only Xiaoer has entered our room. You say, what is it if it's not that they are guarding and stealing? said the fat man angrily.

Ye Jiayao snorted slightly, hey, she can actually use idioms.

The waiter in the shop said angrily: Who stole your things? Which eye of yours saw me stealing your things?

Ye Jiayao said: What about the lost things? We can't say anything without real evidence. Even if we go to the government, there is no conclusive evidence, so we can't just convict people, right? As for you saying that this store is bad, I wonder, since You feel so bad, how can you stay for more than half a month? There are so many inns in Jinling City!

The four guests looked at each other, unable to answer for a while.

Everyone understood, and all laughed.

Being able to stay for such a long time shows that you still like this inn. I just moved in today. I live in a ground-level room, the lowest class, but the bedding is soft and clean, and the tea is both hot and cold. The waiter is warm and thoughtful. , the price...should be fair!

Other customers in the store nodded, thinking that Ye Jiayao was right.

However, I also saw it just now. The food is indeed unsatisfactory, but the younger brother also explained in advance that the cook is not here today, so it is understandable that the cooking is unpalatable. In fact, it is all a misunderstanding. Let’s go, let’s see it this way! I’ll make a new copy for you, and I’ll count it as my treat. How about paying the rest of the house money after the elder brothers have finished eating?” Ye Jiayao accepted it when she saw a deal, and let them go down the steps.

Business Manager Du is a very kind person. He has opened the inn for so many years and has a good reputation.

It's not easy to run a business on a small budget. If there is any misunderstanding, it's fine for everyone to clarify.

Neighbors came out to speak out.

Forget it, let's make money together. Someone persuaded.

Seeing the situation, the four guests were at fault if they continued to make a fuss. They were guilty at first, so they climbed down the pole. Although they hated Ye Jiayao, they could only say: For your sake, this matter will be justified. Forget it, but we can’t make up our minds about this store.”

Ye Jiayao said: Okay, then you should pay the rent first, and I will cook for you.

Then he rolled up his sleeves and asked the waiter: Where is the kitchen?

The waiter pointed to the back hall: It's on the left side of the small courtyard behind.

A dispute disappeared like this. After the four guests left, Ye Jiayao took out a tael of silver and handed it to the accountant, and the little girl said awkwardly, Why is this so embarrassing?

Before, he misunderstood that the little brother was a shit stirrer.

Ye Jiayao said: It's agreed that I will treat you.

Put the silver on the counter and go back to the house.

A tael of silver is not a small amount for her, but she, Ye Jiayao, never does business at a loss, sometimes, a loss is a blessing. Let's see, if you go out for a tael of silver, you will get more than just a tael of silver.

The next day, Ye Jiayao got up early, and there was still a very important task today, looking for a job.

Just as he was about to open the door, there was a knock on the door, and the shop waiter said outside: Brother, are you up yet?

Ye Jiayao opened the door: Second Brother, what do you need from me?

The waiter in the shop laughed and said: Brother, our shopkeeper wants to meet you!

Your shopkeeper is back?

I'm back, I was back last night, but I didn't dare to disturb my brother because I came back late.

Ye Jiayao followed the waiter to meet the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his forties, short and fat, with a smile like a Maitreya Buddha.

Seeing Ye Jiayao laughed so much that she couldn't even find her eyes.

Brother Li, yesterday's incident is thanks to you, I am really grateful. Shopkeeper Du repeatedly cupped his hands in thanks.

Ye Jiayao returned the salute and said with a smile: It's just a little effort, the shopkeeper is very polite.

The guests from Huizhou had already seen that something was wrong with them. In the end, I really wanted to sneak out while I wasn't looking for trouble yesterday. Xiao Yang told me that it was the guests who were blocked by my little brother who couldn't speak. And settled the rent obediently. My old Du is a person who repays every kindness, Brother Li, you take back these two moneys, I can’t let you pay for your help.” Shopkeeper Du returned the money to Ye Jiayao.

Ye Jiayao refused to accept it, so shopkeeper Du forced it into her hand.

Hold it, hold it, or you won't be allowed to stay in the store. Shopkeeper Du threatened with a smile.

Only then did Ye Jiayao take the money.

Shopkeeper Du asked, What does Brother Li come to Jinling to do for a living?

I used to work as a cook in Shandong. I wanted to come to Jinling to find something to do. I just arrived yesterday. No, I'm going out to find a job. Ye Jiayao said truthfully.

When Shopkeeper Du heard this, he was surprised and said, Are you a cook?

Yeah, after studying for a few years, I can cook a few dishes.

Shopkeeper Du became interested: Can you cook Huaiyang cuisine?

Yes! I am good at Huaiyang cuisine. Ye Jiayao was delighted secretly. Shopkeeper Du asked this, is it interesting to recruit her as a cook?

Shopkeeper Du slapped the counter, laughed loudly, and shouted straight up, Er Niang, Er Niang...

A woman lifted the bamboo curtain and came out: What's the matter?

Shopkeeper Du said: Er Niang, what a coincidence, brother-in-law's restaurant is short of a cook, so we have a cook in our restaurant. This is Brother Li who helped our inn out of the siege yesterday. He is a cook. Specializes in Huaiyang cuisine.

The woman looked at Ye Jiayao with a hint of suspicion: Such a young cook?

Ye Jiayao saw that the woman's hands were still covered with fish scales, and guessed that she was the proprietress and cook of the inn, and she couldn't be modest when the opportunity came, Ye Jiayao smiled slightly: If sister-in-law doesn't trust me, you can test me.

Seeing that she is full of confidence, the woman thinks she has two brushes.

Shopkeeper Du said: Don't you still have to go to the restaurant to help at noon? Take him there and let your brother have a look. If he is satisfied, you don't have to look around for someone.

Shopkeeper Du was a warm-hearted person, and Ye Jiayao helped him, so naturally he tried his best to facilitate this matter.

The woman hesitated for a moment, and said: Okay, I'll take him there, but you know my brother, ordinary cooks don't look up to him, Brother Li, it's up to you whether you succeed or not.

Ye Jiayao quickly thanked her. So, it’s always right to do more good deeds, good deeds are rewarded with good deeds, isn’t it? Here comes the opportunity.
