The Culinary Tycoon

In the early morning of the next day, Chang Le got up on time, her eyes were black and black, and it seemed that she hadn't had a good rest.

"Brother Le, did you not sleep well yesterday?" Seeing Chang Le with two panda eyes, Yu Qingze asked with concern.

Chang Le hurriedly waved his hands and gestured twice.

Recently, Yu Qingze learned sign language from Chang Hao, and he remembered the meaning of many gestures. He guessed: "You mean that mosquitoes got into the bed curtain, so you didn't sleep well?"

Chang Le nodded slightly, then quickly lowered his head again.I was so embarrassed when I told the lie, but fortunately Brother Yu seemed to believe it.

Seeing that his eyes were so dark that he felt like he hadn't slept all night, and his face was haggard, Yu Qingze felt distressed, and frowned, "Brother Le, you can rest at home today, I'll go with Xiaohao."

Chang Le shook his head, saying that he was fine and going, very firm.

Yu Qingze said: "You are not in good spirits, the weather is hot, be good, rest at home."

Chang Le insisted on going.

It happened that Grandpa Chang also got up and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yu Qingze said: "Grandpa, brother Le didn't sleep well yesterday, I asked him to rest today, but he doesn't want to, please persuade him quickly."

Grandpa Chang looked at Chang Le's face, and said simply: "Xiao Le, you rest at home today, I'll go."

Chang Le still wanted to fight for it, but Grandpa Chang sullenly said only two words: "Be obedient."

Seeing that Grandpa was about to get angry, Chang Le had no choice but to nod, feeling a little annoyed.

After breakfast and sending them out, Chang Le didn't go back to catch up on sleep and rest. After finishing the housework, he put on a straw hat, took a hoe and carried a dung skip, and went to the field.I've been busy with business recently, and I haven't paid attention to the fields. I don't know how the seedlings are growing.

I went around a few fields at home, and the seedlings are growing well. Grandpa has pulled out the weeds in several fields, and there is only one field left, which may not have had time to pull out.

Immediately, Chang Le rolled up his trousers and went to the field to pull weeds.

After pulling it for about an hour, the weather gradually heated up, and Chang Le was a little out of spirits, so he got up and went back to the side of the field on the path to sit down and rest for a while.

At this time, Wen Li also came over with a dung skip on the small road. When he saw Chang Le, his eyes lit up and he walked over immediately.

"Hey, Brother Le, why are you at home today? Didn't you go out with Aze to open a food stall?"

Chang Le felt a headache when he saw Wen Li, but he still nodded and pointed to the field, indicating that he was weeding.

"Oh, you are pulling weeds." Wen Li put down the dung pan, squatted down in front of Chang Le, and whispered, "Hey, Brother Le, I have a question for you. Did Liao Mei come to A Ze yesterday? Say kiss?"

Chang Le hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Sure enough, it was for A Ze! Oh, I was preempted!" Wen Li patted her leg annoyed, and then asked, "Which family is it?"

Chang Le watched Wen Li pretending to be dead and did not speak.

Wen Li poked him with her finger and said anxiously, "Hey, tell me, which family's brother?"

Chang Le shook his head and didn't tell him.Uncle, if he finds out about this person, maybe there will be some rumors from the outside world, and Brother Yu and Brother Qiao will die of embarrassment by then?

"Hey, you kid, am I your uncle?!" Wen Li scolded, and said, "Well, no matter which one it belongs to, the most important thing is, did Yu Qingze agree to that?"

Chang Le's eyes flickered, not knowing whether to nod or shake his head.Anyway, no matter nodding or shaking his head, nothing good will happen in the future.

He simply pretended to be dead, did not speak, neither nodded nor shook his head.

He looked at Wen Li so angry that he was dying, and said: "Oh, if I wasn't at home yesterday, I don't need to ask you! Tell me, what kind of brother does Aze like?"

Chang Le thought in a trance, I also want to know what kind of brother Yu big brother likes.

"Hey, I guess you don't know if I ask you this question." Seeing that Chang Le didn't answer, Wen Li started talking again: "His food stall business is so good now, there must be a lot of people who come to say kisses in the future. A bit older, but man, the most important thing is being able to make money to support the family."

Chang Le listened to his uncle's broken thoughts, and didn't listen to a single sentence, but heard the phrase "there must be a lot of people who will come to say kisses in the future", and the irritability and depression that had been entangled with him all night suddenly surged in his heart Coming up, let him feel suffocated all of a sudden, and his brows were tightly wrinkled.

Wen Li didn't notice the change in Chang Le's face at all. He bumped Chang Le with his elbow and asked, "Hey, Brother Le, do you think Brother Yue has hope?"

Chang Le turned his head suddenly, stood up, stared at his uncle, frowning tightly.

Uncle, is this crazy? Brother Yue is not yet 15 years old, and he, he, he is lazy, how can he be worthy of Brother Yu!It's not as good as yourself!

Not as good as yourself?

Chang Le was stunned suddenly.

"Hey, why did you stand up all of a sudden? You scared me out of my heart." Wen Li was almost scared to death, and stood up clutching her heart, not giving up on her question: "Hey, Brother Le, you haven't answered me yet?"

Chang Le was still in a daze, blankly without any reaction.

Wen Li yelled a few words, but seeing that he didn't respond, she felt bored, cursed and walked away with her dung pan on her shoulders.

After Wen Li left for a while, Chang Le was still in shock...

Did he just, just think about something shameless?

How could you think of such a sentence!

It's not as good as myself...

What is worse than yourself?

Do you want to be Brother Yu's husband?

Chang Le shook his head vigorously to get this crazy idea out of his mind, but he couldn't hold it down in a small corner of his heart. A small seed called 'expectation' was struggling to break through the ground and protrude out.

He couldn't help but fantasized for a while, if he could become brother Yu's husband...

Thinking about the details of getting along with Brother Yu these days, Brother Yu taught him to write, Brother Yu brushed his fingers on his cheeks, Brother Yu touched his warm palm on his head, and his gentle eyes and smile, generous chest……

Chang Le's face turned red in a flash, from face to ears to neck, it was all red, the temperature was almost scalding to death.

Ashamed and angry, he stretched out his hands to cover his face, and patted hard twice to wake himself up.

Changle!Are you crazy too!

Thinking about something indiscriminately!Brother Yu is such a good person, you can't think of it!You don't want to think about what you are like, with such ugly scars, and you can't speak, maybe you can't even have a child!

With just you, how can you be Brother Yu's husband? !

A basin of ice water was poured down.

All the charm, fantasies, and expectations disappeared without a trace in an instant...

Chang Le stood blankly for a while, touched the scar on his forehead, picked up the hoe and put the dung dustpan on his shoulders, and walked back in a daze.

I feel dizzy, I need a good night's sleep to clear my head.

When Yu Qingze and the others came back in the evening, they found that Chang Le's face was still very haggard, and his bright eyes had lost their former radiance, and they were a little worried.

"Brother Le, are you feeling unwell? Did you have a good rest today?" Yu Qingze approached him, and reached out to touch his forehead, fearing that he might be sick.

Unexpectedly, when Chang Le saw his hand stretched out, his body took a step back suddenly, his eyes looked panicked, and he shook his hands to show that he was fine.

Yu Qingze: ...I feel that I have been rejected.

Chang Hao saw him, walked over, and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? You're very lethargic."

Chang Le shook his hand and gestured, indicating that he just didn't sleep well.

"You didn't rest during the day today?" Chang Hao asked with a frown.

Chang Le nodded and shook his head, indicating that he was asleep, but he didn't.

After confirming that he wasn't sick, it was really just that he didn't sleep well and was out of energy, and the few people were relieved.

But it's hard to handle if you don't sleep well, so you can only go to bed early at night.

After dinner, Chang Hao was writing in the main room, Yu Qingze and Chang Le were making noodles and Liangpi in the kitchen, and Grandpa was making fairy tofu.

"Aze, the jelly fruit on the mountain is at the end of its season, and it's almost gone. I picked all the jelly on the mountain before, and it will probably be gone in a few days." Grandpa Chang said to Yu Qingze while pounding the fairy leaves.

"Well, this is a seasonal food, there's nothing I can do about it. I've already thought of something new to eat. I asked the village head to make a snack cart. I'll go to the blacksmith's shop to order a mold tomorrow. When it's ready, we can roll it out." New food." Yu Qingze replied while pulling the noodles.

Unexpectedly, Yu Qingze had already started thinking about a new food, Grandpa Chang asked curiously: "New food? What is it?"

Yu Qingze replied: "It's a kind of food called 'Oden cooking'. I'll improve it. When I buy some ingredients tomorrow, I'll make it for you to try. The oily gluten left over from our Liangpi can be sold at that time." go."

When making Liangpi, after washing the dough, there will be a ball of gluten left. Yu Qingze fried it and made it into oil gluten.During this period of time, I sold Liangpi and accumulated a lot of oily gluten. I ate some of it myself, and there was still a lot left.

"Okay, okay, what you cook must be delicious." Grandpa Chang listened, praised with a smile, and sighed: "Tell me, how do you know how to eat so much food? You made it that we couldn't even think of. .”

Hearing this, Chang Le quietly glanced at Yu Qingze, then immediately turned her head away.

"I also learned it from my master." Yu Qingze replied with a smile, put the stretched noodles on the clean bamboo pole beside him, and found that the sleeve had fallen off. He raised his hand full of flour and walked to Chang Le, saying : "Brother Le, please help me scoop up my sleeves."

Chang Le put down the plate in his hand, lowered his head and rolled up Yu Qingze's sleeves layer by layer, without looking at Yu Qingze the whole time.

Yu Qingze blinked, always felt that Brother Le was a little strange today, he felt quieter than usual.

Sure enough, he didn't sleep well and his spirit was not good?

"Brother Le, leave these alone. I'll finish making the noodles here later, and I can make Liangpi. Go take a bath and rest, you look very mentally ill."

Chang Le shook his head, saying that he would go after finishing these.He sighed in his heart, even if he went to sleep, he couldn't fall asleep.

Yu Qingze saw that he was taking a plate to put the batter again, and he didn't care that his hands were full of flour, so he grabbed his hand, snatched the empty plate from his hand, and wanted to drag him to wash his hands.

"Go take a bath and rest. I'll finish this Liangpi in a while. Grandpa and I don't feel at ease with you like this."

Chang Le's hand was caught suddenly, he was startled, and he pulled his hand out at once, and felt that he was overreacting and was a little at a loss, so he was pushed out of the kitchen by Yu Qingze's arm.

Chang Le: ...

"Go quickly."

Chang Le had no choice but to wash his hands, pack his clothes and prepare to take a bath. He thought to himself: Chang Le, take care of yourself, don't think about it today, sleep well!Brother Yu, Brother Yu is beyond your imagination!

Grandpa Chang looked at his grandson and sighed inwardly.

The next day, Chang Le's complexion was better than the day before, and he was also more energetic. He didn't want to be at home anymore. something happened.

Grandpa Chang and Yu Qingze couldn't resist him, so they agreed.

When we arrived at North Street, we were ready to open the stall. Since the business was not busy, Yu Qingze was going to the blacksmith shop and the vegetable market, so he handed over the stall to Chang Le. Chang Le also knows how to make cold noodles and cold skin, so it's not a big problem .

When he arrived at the blacksmith shop, Yu Qingze gave the drawing of the mold he drew to the master blacksmith, and then discussed with him for a long time, until the master blacksmith was sure, he went to the vegetable market again.

To make Oden, the soup base is the key.

Yu Qingze went to two vegetable markets in the east and the west to buy the ingredients. If some ingredients were not available, he replaced them with other ingredients. There was no way to make an authentic seafood broth like Oden, but it is still possible to improve it with kelp, shiitake mushrooms, and meat bone soup. Very delicious.

Returning to the food stand with large and small bags of materials, Yu Qingze saw Boss Liu standing by their food stand, probably waiting for him.

Seeing that he was back, Boss Liu handed a plate of fried noodles to Yu Qingze, motioning him to have a taste.

Yu Qingze had no choice but to take it and took two bites, saying: "It tastes better than yesterday's, this fried shredded pork is a bit old."

"Well, I'll do it when I go back." Boss Liu nodded, took the plate, snatched the chopsticks from Yu Qingze's hand, turned and went back.

Yu Qingze: ...Do you want to be so cool? !

After putting the things away, he washed his hands well, and instead of picking up the work in Chang Le's hands, he served the food and went to the cashier.

Chang Le had a wound on his finger, Brother Chang saw it and went to wash the dishes by himself.Seeing this, Yu Qingze was very satisfied, and immediately decided to shorten brother Chang's seven-day probationary period to three days. After today is over, he will be given the treatment of a regular worker from tomorrow.

At noon, Mi Geer came over and said that their young master was leaving for Yunzhou in the afternoon, and asked if the jelly and cold noodles could be packed and brought back. Their young master wanted to take it back for Cai Adults and husbands and wives also try it.

Yu Qingze simply gave them some dry cold noodle cold skin, and packed some chili oil for them, and some other seasonings can be prepared by themselves.The sweet jelly is not easy to pack, and they didn't bring any jelly. The fairy tofu can be brought back by floating in water, but the water still needs to be changed the next day.

After explaining all the things he noticed, Mi Geer took the ingredients back after taking notes.

After being busy all day, Yu Qingze hardly found a chance to talk to Chang Le, but seeing that Chang Le was still quite energetic, he felt a little relieved.

In the middle of the afternoon, the sky turned cloudy, and dark clouds were gathering on the other side of the sky, as if it was going to rain.

Seeing that everything was almost sold out, Yu Qingze decided to close the stall and go back early, so as not to be trapped in the city when it rained.

On the way back, Yu Qingze told Brother Chang about making him a full-time employee, and Brother Chang was very happy, talking and laughing with Yu Qingze along the way, just chatting.

Chang Le dragged the cart and watched from behind, feeling a little uncomfortable, thinking that only a good brother like Brother Chang was worthy of Brother Yu.

Look, they are talking and laughing, how happy they are.And myself...

At this time, there was a loud thunder in the sky, the wind suddenly picked up, dark clouds rolled in, and a sudden shower came without waiting for them to get home.

They hurriedly took out the parasols, but the wind and the slanting rain made it useless to hold the parasols.Moreover, the parasol was heavy, and it was still facing the wind. Only Chang Le and Yu Qingze could hold it up.

"Boss Yu, there is a family in front of us. It's raining so hard, let's go hide first?" Brother Chang hid under Chang Le's umbrella, and suggested a farmer's house not far ahead.

Yu Qingze also saw it, nodded and said: "Okay! Brother Le, go over there to hide from the rain. You go first."

Chang Le nodded, he held an umbrella, Brother Chang pulled the scooter, and the two passed first.Behind, Yu Qingze held the umbrella with both hands, Chang Hao pushed the snack cart, and the two slowly moved over.

When they arrived at the farmhouse, Yu Qingze put the snack cart and cart side by side, put a parasol on top to keep out the rain, and walked to the eaves with Chang Le.

Even with such a short distance, they still got wet. Fortunately, it was summer and they didn't catch a cold.

Several people were wiping their faces to tidy up.

Yu Qingze saw a leaf on Brother Le's hair, and wanted to take it off for him, but just as he stretched out his hand, Chang Le suddenly raised his head to look at him, and hid his head back for a while.

Yu Qingze: ...Why was she dismissed again?What happened to Le Geer these two days?It wasn't like this before. I used to touch my head, but now I'm guarding myself like a pervert?

Inexplicably wronged.

"...Uh, that, Brother Le, there is a leaf on your head, I'll give it to you, take it off?" Yu Qingze paused, not sure about Brother Le's attitude towards him now.

Hearing this, Chang Le blushed a little, turned her head, reached out her hand to touch her head, and got rid of the leaves.

Yu Qingze: ...

In the next two days, Yu Qingze found that such situations became more and more common, and the previously harmonious relationship between him and Chang Le suddenly became awkward.

He found Xiaozhuo and asked, "What happened to your brother these days? Is there something wrong?"

Chang Hao didn't understand either, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Yu Qingze was stunned, was he really hated by Brother Le?Why does it feel like Brother Le is hiding from him?

He didn't do anything...
