Return To 1998

One evening, Tongdao Xu was cooking in the kitchen. It was hot recently, and the whole sheep feast was not selling well. So about three months ago, he added about twenty home-cooked dishes to the menu of the store.

There are fish and meat, braised dishes, stir-fries and various soups.

But Quanyang Banquet has not been removed from the menu in his store.

Because although there are fewer people who eat the whole whole sheep feast, there are still some people who order one or two dishes in the whole sheep feast.

He just changed the focus from barbecue + whole sheep feast to barbecue + home cooking.

Not to mention, it works great.

As the weather gets warmer and the temperature gets higher, the barbecue business in his store is getting better and better, and customers who order barbecue often also have two more home-cooked dishes or soup.

It is worth mentioning that, after more than half a year of study and practice, Ge Lianghua's barbecue skills have been practiced.

As for the barbecue work, Tongdao Xu basically let Ge Lianghua go.

His business here is already on track.

Ge Lianghua was in charge of the barbecue, and Xi Dongyang was in charge of the cold dishes. When Xi Dongyang was not busy, he helped him with the dishes. When Xi Dongyang was busy, Xu Tongdao prepared and cooked them himself.

If his shop was an orthodox restaurant, he would cook it himself. Given the current business situation in his shop, he would definitely be too busy.

Fortunately, the main thing here is barbecue, and there are not many other dishes ordered by customers, and Xu Tongdao can still be busy by himself.

At this time, he was cutting and serving a portion of Mushu meat.

Xu Tonglin suddenly came to the kitchen and came to Xu Tongdao's side, looking a little sneaky, he shrugged his neck and looked back at the front hall, and at the same time whispered: Xiaodao, that Wu Yali is here again, here! This is her. Just ordered!

With that, he put a small handwritten menu next to Xu Tongdao's chopping board.

By the way, this is not the first time Wu Yali has come to eat at their restaurant recently.

About three months ago, Wu Yali came to their store for dinner every three or five months.

Each time I order not many dishes, just two or three dishes, sometimes I order one dish and one soup, and then sit there and eat for about an hour.

To be honest, she did this, which affected the turnover rate of their store a bit, especially when the business was good,

Some customers were waiting in line for a table, but Wu Yali occupied a table by herself and ate slowly, which indeed affected the business of their store.

Xu Tonglin has long been criticized.

But no way.

After all, when they open the door to do business, they can't drive the guests out, and they can't forbid people to come back just because the guests come to eat alone and the meal time is a little longer?

What's more, when they set up a roadside stall last year, they received calls for a period of time at the newsstand of Wu Yali's mother, Auntie Wang.

Yes! They pay the electricity bill every month, but that's human.

The most important thing... is that Tongdao Xu and Wu Yali had a period of time, although he and Bu Yinghui never knocked on Wu Yali's window again, but...

As the saying goes: one day husband and wife a hundred days of grace.

Can he, Xu Tongdao, not remember any old feelings at all?

Moreover, Wu Yali has often come to eat in their restaurant in the past few months. Tongdao Xu also knows the real purpose.

She is a drunkard, not drinking. Her intentions have been expressed many times, either explicitly or implicitly, over the past few months.

This point, even Xu Tonglin and others could faintly see it.

Otherwise, Xu Tonglin would not deliberately report to Tongdao Xu that Wu Yali was here again.

In the past three months, Wu Yali has entered Xu Tongdao's kitchen and called Xu Tongdao out, and even called Xu Tongdao to accompany her for two drinks when Xu Tongdao left the kitchen once.

On the surface, she thought Xu Tongdao was an acquaintance and friend.

But when she came to the kitchen to find Tongdao Xu, she asked in a low voice if he could help her refill the liquefied gas.

Liquefied gas...

Others don't know about this, can he, Xu Tongdao, not know her meaning?

Another time, after having dinner, she called Tongdao Xu outside the store. Seeing that there was no one around for a while, her question became more straightforward.

Tongdao Xu remembered that night, she asked in a low voice, Why haven't you been looking for me for so long?

Seeing that he didn't answer for a while, she added, I'm already divorced.

That night, Tongdao Xu sighed and told her, I already have a girlfriend.

He asked himself that he was not a good man.

In the few months after he was reborn, he also thought about sleeping more women in this life, and it was because of that thought that he and Wu Yali had a period of time.

But, maybe he is not too scumbag in his bones!

After being with Wu Yali for a long time, he gradually began to really like her and wanted to be with her for a long time.

However, he never expected that when they were together, she was not really widowed.

Her husband didn't even die.

This allowed Xu Tongdao to refresh his understanding of her.

He didn't dare to think about being with her for a long time. Later, when he saw Bu Yinghui, his mind gradually shifted to Bu Yinghui. From then on, he never went to Wu Yali again.

During that time, Wu Yali was probably also dealing with divorce matters. He didn't go to her for several months, and she didn't come to him either.

It was also during this time that his relationship with Bu Yinghui became better and more stable, and he went to the hotel to give her a bath more and more times.

He feels in love.

He was very satisfied.

For Wu Yali...I don't want to continue to be involved.

Although he still misses the happy time with Wu Yali and her style in bed, his reason tells him to cherish Bu Yinghui and not be too greedy.

It was under this idea that he bluntly told Wu Yali that he had a girlfriend.

He thought she would understand what he meant, thought she would stop pestering.

But the truth told him - he was wrong.

After that day, Wu Yali did not come to him again for more than half a month, nor did she appear in his store again, but after more than half a month, she came again.

And he opened the door to do business, and there was no way to keep her from coming.

Like tonight, she's here again, what can he do?

Xu Tongdao glanced at the menu that Xu Tonglin had just placed next to his chopping board. Wu Yali just ordered two dishes and one soup.

A spicy and sour shredded potato, a braised tofu with bream, and a loofah egg soup.

It's what she always ordered.

Got it, go get busy!

Xu Tongdao responded lightly, tilted his head, and motioned for Xu Tonglin to go out to work.

Before Xu Tonglin left, he looked at his expression strangely.

Xu Tongdao ignored him.

When he left, Xu Tongdao let out a sullen breath.

He actually has a headache. Wu Yali's condition for the past three months, he can see that her condition is obviously getting worse and worse, more and more haggard, and every time she comes to his store to drink more and more wine .

Seeing it in his eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
