The Culinary Tycoon

After Brother Chang passes the probationary period, Chang Hao's boy can go to school.

That night, Grandpa Chang took Chang Hao to visit Yu Xiucai with a gift, leaving Yu Qingze and Chang Le to work in the kitchen.

Yu Qingze has been paying attention to the change of Chang Le's attitude towards him in the past two days, trying to find something to talk about, but at the beginning of two topics, he said a lot, Chang Le just smiled and didn't give him a word Gestures, there is no meaning to connect at all.

I can't even chat awkwardly.

Yu Qingze was a little bit shocked, and rubbed the dough under his hands vigorously, thinking of it as Chang Le's little butt, who disobeyed and was beaten!

In Yu Qingze's previous life, he had never even had a serious talk about love, and his chasing skills were not full, and he didn't know what topic to use to cheer up the person he liked. It was really sad to think about it.

In the kitchen, only the sound of two people working could be heard, and the atmosphere was dull and awkward for a while.

The more Yu Qingze thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, so he simply patted the dough on the cutting board, turned around, and called Chang Le: "Brother Le."

Chang Le turned around, glanced at him, then looked away again, and put his gaze on the cutting board.

Yu Qingze walked over, looked down at Chang Le, and threw a straight ball out: "Brother Le, do you have any opinion on me?"

Chang Le raised his head suddenly, shook his head and hands vigorously, why did Big Brother Yu ask such a question, why did he have any opinion on him, he was just, just...

"Then why are you always avoiding me these days?" Yu Qingze subconsciously shook her head when she saw Chang Le, and said first: "Don't say no, you have. You see, you don't even dare to look at me."

Chang Le stopped shaking her hands and her head, her face was flushed, and she didn't dare to look at Yu Qingze with her head down.

Seeing him bowing his head again, Yu Qingze didn't care about the flour on his hands anymore, he directly held up Chang Le's delicate chin and squeezed it, so that he had to look at him, and then asked again: "Brother Le, do you know what you are doing?" Is something wrong for a few days? You look haggard, depressed, and avoid me. Did I do something to make you feel uncomfortable? Tell me."

The chin was pinched, and this ambiguous movement made Chang Le's face even redder. He didn't dare to look at Yu Qingze when he was dodging his eyes, but now he dared not even move.

It wasn't until he heard the last sentence that he looked up into Yu Qingze's eyes in panic, and shook his head seriously.

"Really?" Yu Qingze asked.

Chang Le nodded.Brother Yu didn't do anything that made him feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, he couldn't help himself to think of those intimate contacts, which made him feel very shameless.

"That's why, tell me, eh?" Yu Qingze said softly, his eyes locked on Chang Le's face, observing his expression.

Chang Le's eyes began to wander again.The secret in my heart must not be known by Brother Yu. If he knows, he still doesn't know how to look at himself. He must think that he is a toad who wants to eat swan meat.

Unaware that he had become a swan in Chang Le's heart, Yu Qingze was about to push him further, but he didn't want to. At this moment, the voices of Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao came from the yard, and they came back from visiting Yu Xiucai.

Yu Qingze also heard the voices of Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao, but he didn't let go until the voices got closer and closer, and he heard Chang Hao's small voice saying, "So Master is so good, I always thought he was very serious." Seeing the frightened and panicked expression on Chang Le's face, and fearing that his grandpa and younger brother would see it, he felt sorry for him again, so he put down his hand and said, "We'll talk again when we're free."

As if being amnesty, Chang Le hurriedly turned around and lowered her head, very "busyly" picked up the plate and poured the steamed Liangpi inside on the cutting board, cut it open with a knife, and put it in the dustpan to dry.

But Yu Qingze's phrase 'we'll talk when we're free' scared him enough.

He doesn't want to talk 'again' with Big Brother Yu at all!

So the next day, Yu Qingze found out that Chang Le avoided him even more, he didn't even dare to meet his eyes occasionally, and didn't even dare to look up at him when he called him.

Yu Qingze: ...

Brother Chang was careful, and found that the two of them were a little strange these days. When Chang Le went to fetch water from Boss Li's shop, he took the opportunity to ask Yu Qingze: "Boss Yu, did you make Brother Le angry? Why didn't he Ignore you?"

He still remembered that Chang Le and Yu Qingze cooperated very well when they came to work on the first day.

Yu Qingze said helplessly, "I don't know either, and he wouldn't tell me even if I asked him."

Brother Chang blinked, seeing that Chang Le came out soon, so he stopped asking.

When I went home that day, another matchmaker came to the house and wanted to match Yu Qingze.This time it was invited by Chang Le's uncle, and he specially found another matchmaker, and the person he wanted to talk to was Brother Yue.

Yu Qingze couldn't laugh or cry when he thought of the boy Yue who was obviously not yet an adult and was following behind Wen Li.

He told the matchmaker again that he already had someone he liked, and then sent him away.

When the matchmaker was sent away, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Yu Qingze's head. He remembered that Chang Le started to become strange. It seemed that after the matchmaker Liao came to propose a kiss to him last time, Chang Le didn't sleep well the next day, and then began to hide. Followed him, until now.

This, what does this mean?

Chang Le is afraid that others will misunderstand, which will affect her marriage?

still is……

Yu Qingze thought of his blushing and shy expressions when he had no intention of flirting with Chang Le before, and he couldn't help guessing boldly, could it be that Chang Le actually liked him, but was shy so he avoided him?

Or, he found out that the person he wanted to kiss was a good buddy, and then felt that he was not as good as him?So low self-esteem, hiding from yourself?

Yu Qingze went over the context and felt that the last possibility was the most likely.

This discovery made him half happy and half worried.

It is indeed a good thing that Chang Le can also like herself.But if he has low self-esteem due to his physical condition, gets into the horns, shrinks into the turtle shell, and dares not approach him, then it will be troublesome.

In short, you have to make sure first.

After dinner, several people were working in the kitchen, and Yu Qingze was making noodles while thinking about how to solve the problem.

Suddenly, someone outside the house called Brother Le.

Chang Le heard the sound and went outside.

Yu Qingze walked to the door and took a look, it turned out to be Dahe.

The two spoke in a low voice, Yu Qingze didn't hear clearly, only saw Dahe foolishly touching the back of his head, his eyes seemed to be dodging from left to right, not looking at Chang Le, and he was talking silly while laughing , while Chang Le looked up at him seriously and listened to him.

Yu Qingze: ...Could it be that he came to pry the corner of the wall again? !

Thinking of the time when he met the gangster before, Dahe looked at Chang Le a little strangely. When Chang Le looked at him, he didn't dare to look at Chang Le. When Chang Le stopped looking at him, he just stared at him.

This, is this secret love for Changle?

Yu Qingze suddenly trembled again, thinking of a very serious problem, there is another possibility for Brother Le to hide from him!

It is entirely possible that he is hiding from himself because he has someone he likes in his heart, and he is afraid of being misunderstood by his sweetheart? !

And that person is Da He?

A bad premonition rose in Yu Qingze's heart, and a sense of crisis rushed into his mind, which made him suddenly wake up.

He made a preconceived mistake. When he heard Wen Li say that no one would marry Chang Le, he thought that no man really liked Chang Le?

Moreover, he never thought about the possibility of Chang Le having a sweetheart!

This is really wrong!

How could no one like a brother as good as Chang Le? !He is in his youth again, isn't it normal to have someone he likes? !

I still want to take my time, and tell Chang Le that I like him after I have made money and solved the household registration problem, so take my time!

Any slower, and the daughter-in-law will belong to someone else!

We must find a good time to tell him first.

When Chang Le came back after talking with Dahe, he pretended to ask casually: "Is it Dahe? Is he busy so late?"

Grandpa Chang also turned to look at Chang Le.

Chang Le began to make gestures.

Grandpa Chang looked at it, nodded and said, "Oh, I know about it, I'll go tomorrow."

Yu Qingze only understood half of it, and he asked Grandpa Chang: "Grandpa, what's the matter?"

Grandpa Chang said: "Tomorrow is the first day of the new year, and next month it's our family's turn to herd cattle in the afternoon. It's okay, I'll go tomorrow afternoon."

It turned out that this was the matter, Yu Qingze calmed down, and said to Grandpa Chang: "By the way, Grandpa, let me tell you something, I went to Liuji Noodle Restaurant this morning, and saw Boss Liu and the others washing the dough. It's cool."

In the morning, he heard Boss Liu’s son say that when Boss Liu was drinking porridge, he found that the skin on the porridge was similar to Liangpi, so he realized that it might be steamed, but they failed to steam it with flour and water. After that, I was testing the method of washing the dough again.

Boss Liu is also quite smart.

Grandpa Chang was surprised: "Boss Liu, they know what to do?"

Yu Qingze nodded: "They have figured out the right method, and they probably have done it now."

Grandpa Chang said again: "Then if they launch Liangpi, our business will be affected."

Yu Qingze nodded, and said again: "Boss Liu, it's hard to say, maybe he will take into account the other ways of eating noodles I taught him and not introduce Liangpi. But it doesn't matter, cold noodles and Liangpi are considered seasonal food after all. If we do it for another month, the weather will get colder in August, and the business will gradually fade away, so we won’t be able to do it for long.”

He never thought about making a fortune by relying on cold noodles and cold skin. The food stalls are only the initial accumulation of capital, and opening a restaurant is his ultimate goal.

"That's true. It's too cold and everyone wants to eat warm." Grandpa Chang said.

Yu Qingze said again: "So, Grandpa, there is one more thing. We can sell Kanto cooking the day after tomorrow, but then there will be a lot of preparations and a lot of work. I guess we won't be able to do it ourselves. I want to divide some of the work. Go out to the villagers, we can hand over time-consuming items like noodles and Liangpi gluten, and then we can buy them from them. We can make tofu puffs, tofu skewers, and meatballs ourselves. Selling these separately can also make money What do you think?"

Previously, Yu Qingze experimented and made an oden. He simply made seaweed knots, tofu puffs, gluten, meatballs, radishes, etc., served with chili sauce and garlic sauce. Chang Le and the others said it was delicious, so they decided to sell it. .

Grandpa Chang thought for a while, they are already very busy making noodles and Liangpi gluten every day, and he has to take care of the fields during the day, so he really can't separate the manpower, so he said, "Okay. Who will do it for?"

To whom, that is indeed a question.

Yu Qingze thought of the gossip he heard on the road when he went to the village chief's house, saying that Grandpa Chang cared about the big and ignored the small, and that if he had a way to make money, he would rather give it to outsiders than to his own son, and said, "Otherwise, give the noodles to Brother Chang's house. Give the cold noodle and gluten to uncle's house?"

Recently, everyone knows that they have made money, and there have been more gossips in the village. They are not in the village during the day, so they don't hear much. Grandpa Chang is in the village all day, so he must have endured a lot of rumors, but he didn't mention it to them. Pass.

On the other hand, recently, Wen Li stopped proposing to Chang Le, and always made excuses to come over at night, always wanting to see how their cold noodle and jelly are made, and it is really inconvenient to be on guard every time. .

Since the Liangpi recipe is no longer an exclusive secret recipe, and this business has been in business for a while, it doesn't matter to Wen Li, and it can stop the gossip in the village; moreover, if Wen Li is busy, she won't bother them all the time up.

People's words are awesome, but Yu Qingze thinks it's worth it to solve two troublesome things with one small recipe for making Liangpi.

Grandpa Chang was silent for a moment, sighed, and said, "Oh, don't worry, I'm not very worried." People in my family are familiar with him, and Wen Li is not an honest and safe person. What's the matter..."

Yu Qingze smiled and said: "Grandpa, if uncle is so smart, he won't spread this method. Besides, it doesn't matter even if he sells the method of making Liangpi, we won't make this soon, when the time comes , we can make this recipe public, and everyone knows it, so it doesn't matter if the recipe is secret or not."

After a pause, Yu Qingze added: "Of course, you have to beat Uncle for this matter. If he can do it honestly, we can entrust him with other jobs in the future. After all, we are a family and we can't make money." It's hard to say it out if you take them with you, and it's not easy for us to do in the village. But if he is ashamed of our trust, then we won't give it to him in the future."

Hearing this, Grandpa Chang was silent for a long time, before he said, "Ah Ze, after all, you are kind."

In fact, the old man is also emotional, as Wen Li said, Chang Sheng is also his son, how can a father not wish for their family well, and how can he not think of them when good things happen.

However, Wen Li, well, he was indeed a little worried.Moreover, although they and Yu Qingze are partners in this business, in fact, it is Yu Qingze who supports it alone, and they are all lucky.

Now Yu Qingze actually took all these things into consideration, no wonder the old man felt very emotional.

Yu Qingze smiled, and half-jokingly and half-seriously said: "Anyway, giving to others is also giving, let uncle be busy, so that he doesn't keep asking me for marriage."

Grandpa Chang also felt that the old face was a bit unbearable, so he hurriedly said, "I've caused you trouble, and I'll apologize on his behalf. I'll go to him tomorrow and make it clear!"

Yu Qingze hurriedly said: "Why do you need to apologize to Grandpa, it's okay, that's it." He glanced at Chang Le and said, "It's true what I told the matchmaker about having someone I like, so I told Uncle not to come again Brother said kiss."

Chang Le's hand holding the batter paused for a moment, then continued.

Grandpa Chang saw Yu Qingze's eyes, then looked at his precious grandson, sighed in his heart, and said, "Don't worry, I'll tell him tomorrow."

After this matter was settled, Yu Qingze finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that being targeted by Wen Li would not be annoying enough.He doesn't have the time to deal with him every day now, he still has to make money, and he still has to find a good opportunity to confess to Brother Le.
