Qin Shen's Inn

Qin Shen took a deep breath indiscriminately, walked a few steps and sat down cross-legged naturally, followed his father step by step without moving, and leaned on his body when his father sat down, half of his body was hidden behind his father , Probe curiously looked at the man sleeping on the boat coming with the waves with innocent eyes.

Qin Shen took Diudiu's arm and pulled the child in front of him, letting him sit on his lap.

"Your son?"

"Well, my name is Qin Shiyi, nicknamed Diudiu. Diudiu's name is Uncle."

"The one who is older than Dad is called Uncle." Diudiu corrected Dad seriously.

Zhang Tenghai is a resident of Huyue Hotel Huxin Yaju. When Qin Shen drove him there, he was said to have lived there for more than half a year.He doesn't look very young, about 35 or [-] years old, with small fine lines at the end of his eyes, long and thick eyelashes that move slightly with the blink of an eye, and the calmness and indifference in his gentle eyes that have gone through the vicissitudes of life. Fade in and out.

When you look at him, the depth in your eyes can drown you in it, you can't figure it out, you can't see it through.

There are many legends about Mr. Zhang in Huyue Hotel. Some say that he is a son of a family from the capital, some say that he is a Buddhist monk who sees through the world of mortals, and some say that he is a big boss who came on vacation...Without exception, there are all kinds of people around him. Money, high status, and great power, the kind of person who would shake the entire Dongzhou City with a light stomp.

It's not that Qin Shen has never seen someone who racked his brains and struggled openly and secretly in order to get Mr. Zhang at a glance. He wanted to save 20 years of struggle and climb higher branches. He could understand, but he disagreed.

With a sigh, at least those girls can still express their thoughts clearly, even if it is for money, power and status...

Mr. Zhang chuckled, "Yes, the one who is older than your father is called Uncle, and I am older than your father."

Diudiu glanced at his father with a "that's it" look, and then called obediently, "Uncle."

The voice had the softness of a child, and there was a little milky sound. The smile on the corner of Zhang Tonghai's mouth deepened, and his heart fluttered, as if he had been looking forward to this sound for a long, long time.There was a moment of dissatisfaction in my heart, and a voice said in my ear, it's not just that.

So what?

Zhang Tenghai didn't explore the emotions at this moment. He looked at the big one and the small one in front of him, and looked at himself with the same eyes. good.

The sun that was sinking in the west was still dazzlingly white, shining on the man's face, his face was so pale that it was almost transparent, his health was not good.

During Qin Shen's driving for Zhang Tonghai, he drove the car into the hospital three or four times.

There was a slight pain in my heart. The man had a brain tumor, and the tumor was in a bad place, so he couldn't be operated on.Contrary to what others thought, his purpose of coming to Dongzhou City was not for vacation, but the old dean of Dongzhou City People's Hospital was a top expert in this field, and he came to reduce the pain.

"Mr. Zhang, it's too hot outside, let's go in."

Zhang Tenghai raised his hand to cover the top of his eyes, facing the sun and squinting his eyes to look at the sky. The environment in Dongzhou City is very good, the sky is very blue, there is no wind, and the white clouds are still in the sky, which is very beautiful.

"Mr. Zhang?"

"Well, let's go in."

Diudiu walked in front, Qin Shen and Zhang Tonghai walked behind side by side, the distance was not long, and soon entered the room, sat down on the sofa next to the sliding glass door, Diudiu didn't want to stay here any longer, and Dad walked out after saying that, and then he will have a whole summer vacation to explore many places with Chongyuan.

Qin Shen asked Zhang Tenghai to sit down, and he went out to the kitchen to bring some snacks and hot water. Qiu Baocheng was trying to make a batch of snacks, including sweet jujube cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, red bean cakes, and salty scallions Cake, crystal cold rice dumpling, mille-feuille pastry.

When hot water is brewed into the teapot, the tea leaves in it stretch out, and the fragrance of the tea is emitted.Qin Shen didn't buy any famous tea. The only thing in the inn was the mountain white tea that his father picked from the mountains in early spring and kneaded it himself. It is mainly bitter and astringent. Drinking it in summer can clear away heat and relieve internal heat.

The tea set I took out was purchased at a discount from a porcelain shop in the town. It was said to be blue and white porcelain, but in fact the brushwork was not delicate at all, and the paintings were also roosters of different shapes.

"It's a bit crude, don't mind Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Tenghai picked up a cup of tea and put it in his mouth. The bitterness in the mouth was so bitter that it made people frown. After swallowing, the whole mouth was full of bitterness. After a breath, the mouth was full of fluid and sweetness.

"It's all about suffering." Zhang Tenghai frowned unobtrusively.

Qin Shen suppressed a smile, and pushed a plate of red bean cakes in front of the man, "Eat a piece, and suppress the bitter taste in your mouth."

Zhang Tenghai shook his head with a wry smile, "I still can't suppress the matter, this tea is really bitter."

"Plucked from an old tea tree in the mountains, the tree has a history of hundreds of years, and there are experts in the city who have come to see it, but unfortunately the tea produced is not very good, otherwise it would not be our turn to drink it. "Qin Shen took a sip, sticking out his tongue so bitterly, "The old people in the town like to drink strong tea. The teapot is filled with tea leaves and brewed until it is strong, and some is poured out when drinking. I took a sip, It’s so bitter that people feel their intestines are bitter.”

Zhang Tenghai poured himself another cup, and Qin Shen put a little bit of tea leaves in the teapot, floating in the teapot to count, and the bitter taste was reduced a lot.In the mouth, after the bitterness, it is naturally refreshing and refreshing. Drink a few more sips, and after you get used to it, you can taste a little of the wildness.

"You came here after you left Huyue Hotel?" Zhang Tenghai asked.

Qin Shen swallowed the mille-feuille in his mouth, took another sip of tea to make sure that there were no crumbs when he spoke, and then he nodded, "Well, after coming out of Huyue Hotel, I went back to town, this is me My hometown, Hongye Town, the river we saw is the source of the Qinghe River. The inn was left to me by my grandfather, and it has been open for less than a month."

"It feels good."

"It's pretty good. The inn has been around for a while, and it doesn't have all the things. The business hasn't stabilized yet. When it stabilizes and makes money, I'll add things to it." Qin Shen turned his head and looked around, "Look at it now. It's all pretty shabby."

Even the place where he, the boss lives, has only the most basic furnishings. There is no refrigerator, color TV, or stickers. It is clear at a glance.Looking at it this way, it is not difficult to imagine how the guest room looks like, and the word simple is the most appropriate to describe it.

"Career comes step by step, start slowly and steadily. You are still young and have a bright future."

"Haha, I will work hard."

The two haven't seen each other for a long time. Qin Shen is casual and acquainted, and can basically chat with anyone.Zhang Tenghai is open-minded, calm and introverted, and he likes to see Qin Shen's vigorous and energetic appearance.Their social status, age and background are very different, and they basically have no overlapping topics to share, but they can chat for a long time.

From the chat, Qin Shen learned that Zhang Tenghai was lying on the boat in the afternoon, and the wupeng boat was tied to the shore of the island in the middle of the lake.Somehow, the tightly fastened rope came loose, and he, who was asleep, didn't know it.

Drifting with the tide, drifting dozens of kilometers, just came to the outside of the inn.

He woke up slowly smelling the fragrance of flowers. When he woke up, he saw a little doll squatting above him, looking at him curiously.

Then, the little baby ran into the house, and when he came out, he was followed by an adult, and the adult was Qin Shen.

…………

Zhang Tenghai didn't bring his mobile phone with him, and he didn't remember his assistant's phone number. Fortunately, Qin Shen had been Zhang Tenghai's driver and had frequent contact with his assistant Le, so he had his contact information.

He gave the phone to Zhang Tonghai, and after connecting it, Qin Shen went outside. It was late, and it was almost dinner time. He was going to cook some dishes for Zhang Tonghai himself.

It will take a while to wait for someone to pick him up, it's not easy to let him wait for someone on an empty stomach.

Qin Shen has also been with Zhang Tenghai for a while, he knows that Zhang Tenghai mainly eats light food, and because of his illness, he put an end to heavy taste.

He went to the kitchen with a bowl of sky green rice, and Qiu Baocheng was also preparing today's dinner in the kitchen.

The inn staff had more meals than the guests, and the total of the two was no more than six people. There was no additional staff in the kitchen, and Qiu Baocheng was completely busy alone.

Take out a piece of chicken and shiitake mushrooms braised in soy sauce, pork ribs with cartilage and yam soup, fresh small crucian carp caught in the river and then topped with special sauce, freshly picked water spinach from the ground to make garlic Yes, the scallops that Lin Xiaoning sent yesterday were made into garlic, and the whole small potatoes were steamed and eaten with salt and pepper, and the first batch of tomatoes that turned red on the branches were mixed with sugar.

It was a very rich meal, but it was a pity that Zhang Tonghai couldn't eat it. What he ate was the sky green rice porridge cooked by Qin Shen.Tianqing rice porridge is used as a base before meals, and Qin Shen also made several dishes, such as fried fungus with small green vegetables, oily pork ribs and sliced ​​Coprinus comatus for cooking soup, green eggplant cut into cubes and The side dishes made from fried minced meat, stir-fried green beans, steamed small potatoes and yam segments.

"Xiao Qin, who are you making this for?" Qiu Baocheng, who was sprinkling sugar on the tomatoes, asked Qin Shen.

Qin Shen lifted the casserole and glanced at the condition of the blue rice in the pot, and answered Qiu Baocheng's question, "A friend came over and made it for him. He ate lightly, so I made some extra."

"Xiao Qin, you are a master of craftsmanship. It looks delicious."

"It's not because you teach well, Brother Baocheng. When I was in school, I learned a few things from you, and I benefited a lot."

"That's because you are talented. None of the boys I specially brought out have the aura you have. They are all idiots. I don't know what they are doing now. The proportion of salt in the cauldron has always been poor. "Qiu Baocheng stopped his hands, stood up straight, and looked far into the distance, full of memories.

"It's all on its own, Brother Baocheng, don't worry, drink plenty of water if it's salty, and add a spoonful of salt if it's too salty."

"Haha, it makes sense." Looking away, Qiu Baocheng laughed and continued, "By the way, there is a large empty space in the northeast corner of the kitchen. Xiao Qin, how about asking someone to build an old stove? Using an old stove to stew old goose, boil mutton, braise fish, and cook rice, tsk tsk, that tastes better than gas."

Qin Shen looked to the northeast corner, seeing that he still couldn't fully grasp the size, so he put down the knife in his hand and walked over to measure the distance, "The size is just right. You can cook rice with an old stove, and you can still have crispy rice."

"Fry the rice crust once more, and then I'll make a sweet and sour topping and pour it on, blah!"

Qin Shen almost swallowed his saliva, "I'll call my dad later, and ask if there is a master who builds an old stove, and ask someone to come over and make it."
