The surrounding crowd looked at the man who ran away like a gust of wind, looked at each other for a while, and then looked at Gu Lang who was standing calmly and unharmed at the door.

"What happened just now? Didn't that young master teach him a lesson?"

"That's right, how do I see him running as if he was fleeing for his life?"

"Let me just say, no matter how arrogant he is, he can't beat people in the street! He just ran away."

Among the crowd, there were those who were regretful, those who were curious, and those who were after the fact, but they all looked in Gu Lang's direction at the same time, staring at him with various prying eyes.

Facing all kinds of gazes, Gu Lang stood there silently, looked in their direction and smiled, raised his volume slightly, and said softly:

"Everyone also saw it just now. Anyone who wants to come to our restaurant for dinner, please follow our rules. We only accept [-] tables of guests a day, and we will not accept any guests who exceed this number. After that, no matter what kind of people you are No matter what status or status, we will not make exceptions!"

Hearing Gu Lang's words, the people below only felt that his tone was so loud, a little unconvinced and even wanted to taunt, but before they were about to open their mouths, they thought of the nephew of the county master who was running so fast just now, and what he wanted to taunt again Swallowing back, looking at Gu Lang's eyes became a bit more complicated.

Gu Lang saw that the people below had almost listened to what he said, and continued: "The visitor is a customer, and we welcome everyone to visit from now on!"

After speaking, Gu Lang no longer cared about the reactions of those people, turned around and entered the shop.

Qiu Jiu glanced at the people who were still discussing Gu Lang's words, then looked at Gu Lang who had turned and left, and hurriedly chased after him.

Looking at Gu Lang who had returned to the backstage, Qiu Jiu didn't return to his post immediately, but struggled for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking: "Master, why did you do that just now?"

Gu Lang flipped through the ledger casually, and asked without raising his head, "Are you talking about me teaching that young master a lesson, or about what I just taught in person?"

Hearing his young master's question, Qiu Jiu knew that he was going to answer her, and immediately said, "All of them."

Gu Lang glanced at today's accounts, and was very satisfied with today's income, then raised his head to look at his stupid subordinates, and explained:

"Teach that person in public. Firstly, it is to make an example to other people, so that more people will come to make trouble later. Second, it is to give the people around watching the excitement something to talk about, and also to spread the reputation of our store farther. .”

After hearing this, Qiu Jiu showed a look of enlightenment on his face, gave Gu Lang a thumbs up, and sincerely praised: "Young master is still brilliant."

The corner of Gu Lang's mouth curled slightly, looking at the subordinate who left with a look of admiration, he lowered his eyebrows and looked at the account book in his hand.In fact, there is another reason he didn't say just now. The reason why he chose such a tactful way to dissuade the troublemaker instead of using a more radical method is because of his uncle, who is now the magistrate of the county.Seeing that the magistrate had helped him so much, he still decided to let him go.

Just for that reason, Gu Lang felt that he didn't need to explain clearly to Qiu Jiu, he only needed to know the first and second items.

With a look of admiration on his face, Qiu Jiu devoted himself to serving the guests again. He didn't have time to stop and rest until all the dishes for the last table of guests were served.

Gu Lang sat leisurely behind the counter, looked at the remaining two tables of customers in the store, thought for two seconds, waved Qiu Jiu, who was standing next to him, looking a bit idle, and asked him to stand beside him. He collected the money at the seat, followed him slowly to the counter, and walked towards the back kitchen.

Looking at the direction Gu Lang left, Qiu Jiu shook his head in disapproval, "Master, it's true, I went to see Chen Xing again, and I will see you soon."

Gu Lang didn't know that Qiu Jiu was muttering about himself behind his back, even if he knew, he didn't care.

Gu Lang walked to the back kitchen, bypassed the helpers who were sweeping the floor, and the helper who was cleaning up the dishes, nodded when they greeted him, and then saw him sitting on a deck chair under the corridor, beating himself in pain Chen Xing in hand.

Gu Lang's walking steps paused for a moment, then his steps quickened a lot, and he came to Chen Xing's side in three steps at a time.

Xu Shi heard the movement, Chen Xing turned his head inexplicably, and a happy smile appeared on his face the moment he saw that it was Gu Lang, and the beating movements with his hands subconsciously stopped.

Seeing the smile on Chen Xing's face, Gu Lang came to his side, moved a small bench and sat beside him, looked at him and asked with concern: "What's wrong with your arm?"

Facing the close Gu Lang, Chen Xing replied with a bit of coquettishness that he himself hadn't noticed, "I ordered too much food today, I can't handle it, and now my hands hurt."

Gu Lang looked at the grievance on Chen Xing's face that he didn't even notice, pulled his hand under his suspicious eyes, and gently massaged him, "Let me massage for you , it will be more comfortable when you press it."

Feeling Gu Lang's movements, Chen Xing was a little embarrassed. When he wanted to withdraw his hand, Gu Lang didn't know where to press it. He pressed it hard, and he cried out all of a sudden, "ah !"

Hearing his cry, Gu Lang turned to look at him, with a bit of doubt in his eyes, as if he didn't quite understand what was wrong with him.

Chen Xing was also a little embarrassed by the yelling just now, with tears from the pain just now in the corner of his eyes, he looked at Gu Lang with a blushing face, and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "It's just that a little pain, I did not do it on purpose."

Gu Lang looked at him and raised his eyebrows, wondering: "It hurts? But I remember, it will be fine if you press it!"

Chen Xing shook his hand, and just wanted to tell Gu Lang that it hurt, but suddenly found that his swollen hand suddenly became much easier for some reason, and now he didn't feel much when he shook it.He stared at Gu Lang with wide eyes, full of shock, as if he didn't quite understand why this happened.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's silly face, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and said warmly, "How?"

"I, I don't seem to be as sore as before!" Chen Xing knew that massage can relieve fatigue, but he didn't expect that massage could relieve fatigue so quickly.

Seeing his silly appearance, Gu Lang didn't say anything more, but asked him to give him the other hand, and he pressed it as well.

Chen Xing nodded obediently, and passed his hand over.He watched Gu Lang seriously massage himself, and saw his drooping eyebrows, and ripples began to appear in his heart.

Until Gu Lang finished massaging him and put down his hand, he still hadn't recovered.

"All right."

Gu Lang's voice was like a foreign object dripping into the calm lake, stirring up ripples in it.

When Gu Lang raised his eyes to meet his gaze, Chen Xing suddenly came back to his senses, withdrew his gaze all of a sudden, and said as if he was in a hurry to change the subject: "Why do you know how to massage and press so well?" good?"

As soon as he uttered this sentence, Chen Xing suddenly remembered Gu Lang's previous experience that he had heard before, and suddenly thought of whether he learned skills while he was outside to make a living.

In just a split second, Chen Xing imagined a lonely child struggling to survive, had to learn to flatter and please others, and he had practiced such a skill so well.

At this moment, Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang with loving eyes, as if seeing a child who had suffered for many years.

Gu Lang didn't know what Chen Xing was imagining, because he was lowering his brows and eyes with some complicated emotions, as if he had fallen into some kind of long-term memory alone, and then he gently He laughed, and in Chen Xing's inexplicable eyes, the eyes were gentle, and he said softly: "Because, I used to flatter my father like this all the time."

Chen Xing: ? ? ?

Why is this answer completely different from what he imagined.

Gu Lang looked at the astonishment in Chen Xing's eyes, the smile on his face widened, and the expression on his face was extraordinarily gentle, so gentle that Chen Xing wondered if Gu Lang had ever shown such an expression on weekdays.

Gu Lang seemed to be looking at Chen Xing, but he didn't seem to be looking at him anymore. He seemed to be looking at some kind of scene from a long time ago through him. His voice was very soft,

"I am the youngest child in my family, and I am also the youngest one in my family. I grew up under the doting of my parents. At that time, I could be said to be in the family at home, so my personality also developed. It’s a bit domineering. What I’m not allowed to do on weekdays, I insist on doing it, teasing cats and dogs, and destroying porcelain are common things.”

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang's state of being lost in memory, and never imagined that such a gentle-looking young man would be so mischievous in the past.

Gu Lang didn't pay attention to Chen Xing, and continued: "At that time, my mother and grandmother doted on me very much. As long as I admit my mistake and act coquettishly, I can be gently let go. Only my father has always treated me Very strict. Whenever I find out that I have done something wrong again, I will be spanked or asked to go to the ancestor's spiritual tablet to repent.

Although I was young at that time, I also felt a little bit ashamed. I felt that if my father continued to beat me like this, I would lose face.But I'm young and I can't resist, but I can't do it if I don't touch those things.

So, I went to my grandmother's personal maid to learn such skills. Whenever I did something wrong, I would first go to my father to please me, and then even if my father knew what I did wrong, he couldn't bear it. Set your mind to too much criticism. "

When Chen Xing watched Gu Lang say these words, the smile on his face never faded, what's more, there was a little light on his face that he couldn't understand.

Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang must miss that time very much.After all, to be able to shape an urchin into the present silent appearance, that child must have experienced many things along the way.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing's nose suddenly became a little sour. Before he came here, he was spoiled by his family since childhood.Even after coming here, I quickly adapted to the environment here, and I didn't suffer much.It's not at all like Gu Lang, who grew up lovingly, but later had to bear the hatred of his family being wiped out, and still needs to go out to make a living at such a young age, it's really pitiful.

Gu Lang didn't know what Chen Xing was thinking. When he pulled away from the memories, he looked at his flushed eyes, thinking that his hands were still hurting, and said softly to him: "It's not good for your body to work so hard every day. Great, why don't we think of other ways together to lighten your burden."
