Delayed by auspiciousness, when Ye Feiyang arrived at the restaurant, everyone inside was already in full swing. The kitchen was steaming, and several cooks were shirtless kneading noodles. Thin and uniform pickles are piled up in several large bowls, and the aroma of steamed buns is revealed in the thick two-plate steamer next to it. Several large pots are placed under the shed in the backyard, and the flowering rice is constantly rolling inside. with.By the well water at the other end of the yard, several aunts were washing the fresh vegetables that had just been delivered, and Liang Shuang was chopping firewood with his sleeves rolled up.Ye Feiyang took a deep breath, greeted everyone with a smile, rolled up his sleeves and went to help.

Auspiciously followed Ye Feiyang like a little tail. Ye Feiyang turned around and almost knocked the little guy down. Only then did he realize that the little guy is not safe here, so he went down and put a small stool on it. In the middle of the yard, I went to get another jujube cake for him: "Auspicious boy, can you eat jujube cake here by yourself?"

"Not good!" Jixiang refused very simply, pouted his mouth: "Jixiang wants to work!"

Everyone couldn't help snickering, and went to look at the exquisite and beautiful young master while doing things.Ye Feiyang was also speechless. Looking at Ji Xiang's serious expression, he could also think about what to do, help the aunts with food?There are many insects in that dish.Pick up firewood for Qi Shu and Liang Shuang?This doesn't work, it's easy to cut your hands.After much deliberation, he finally came up with an idea, turned around and moved a small table, took a few bowls of chopped pickles, took some small plates, spread them out in front of Jixiang, and washed his hands clean: "Good boy, Would you like to share these pickles? Put three slices of each in each small plate, and put a piece of meat on top."

Jixiang watched Ye Feiyang put it on and did it again, and it would be done immediately. He nodded his head and was in a very good mood: "Jixiang will do it well."

Ye Feiyang kissed Jixiang, praised a few more words, and finally couldn't help but tell him: "This can only be eaten when eating, and Jixiang will share it first, and then give it to Jixiang when eating later. Okay?"

Jixiang who was told was very unhappy to be suspected, so he pouted his lips: "Jixiang doesn't steal food!"

There was another snicker all around, Ye Feiyang rubbed Ji Xiang's little head, looked at him for a while, and then went to do other things.

Opening a restaurant in the capital is not an easy task. Just talking about breakfast, steamed buns, fried dough sticks and noodles are the most basic. Dumplings, wontons, noodles, and clear soup are a must. Even the porridge you have to cook several types, Otherwise, you will be sorry for your huge signboard!When you meet some rich and picky people, you have to prepare some light and refreshing stir-fries.

After working like this for a while, it was almost auspicious time. Ye Feiyang hurriedly asked the big guys to move the prepared breakfast to the shed that was built early in the morning at the entrance of the restaurant. There were many figures coming and going on the street. Many shops are preparing to open.After everyone set things up, Qi Shu took out two firecrackers and set them off. The sudden sound of firecrackers attracted the attention of passers-by.Ye Feiyang covered Jixiang's ears, waited for the sound of firecrackers, and took Jixiang's little hand to pull away the red cloth covering the signboard, which was regarded as opening the door.In another hour, a lion dance team will come and dance in front of this gate for a whole day.

Last night, Ye Feiyang became nervous, looking forward to the first business coming to his door, Jixiang was in Qishu's arms, and stared at the stall without blinking, but it was not for the first time because of greed!

Ye Feiyang's expectation was soon fulfilled. The first person who came to the door was a pedestrian who seemed to be in a hurry. When he came up, he asked if there were any steamed buns. Ye Feiyang nodded immediately: "Yes, there are! How many do you want?"

The man seemed taken aback by Ye Feiyang's enthusiasm and politeness, and he was stunned for a while before saying, "How many?"

"One cent for one penny." Ye Feiyang said, and opened the steamer beside him a little, revealing the big steamed buns inside.

The man glanced at it, and then he was relieved, and took out two copper coins: "Give me two."

Li Xiao who was on the side immediately picked up two steamed buns with chopsticks and handed them to the man. Ye Feiyang bowed with a smile and said, "Welcome to come again next time."

There was a little embarrassment on the man's face, he nodded hastily and strode away as if fleeing.

Qi Shu looked amused, leaned over and said: "Feiyang, if you are so polite, the guests will be scared away by you."

Ye Feiyang was happily putting away the two copper coins. Hearing what Qi Shu said, he couldn't help saying: "Why? This is the way of doing business in our hometown." Buyer complained!

"This is the capital city. You don't need to be too polite, let alone salute. If you are so modest, it will make them feel uncomfortable."

Ye Feiyang was about to speak, when someone came to the door again, Li Xiao smiled and asked: "What do you want, the guest officer?"

"Three buns."

"Okay. Two copper coins and one copper coin, a total of six copper coins. Take it, sir." Li Xiao packed three buns and handed them to the man, took the copper coins, and the deal was over.

Jixiang immediately urged: "Father, copper coins!"

Ye Feiyang accepted the six copper coins in Li Xiao's hand dumbfoundedly, and said to Qishu: "I know what to do, you can go to the backyard to help, I'll be fine here."

After a while, the number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and Ye Feiyang's stall business was surprisingly good. Perhaps no other restaurant would set up a shed at the entrance without regard for its image, and the price was not expensive, comparable to small shops. The price is generally the same, and the size is not as chilling.

However, no matter how good the business is at the entrance, few people step into the restaurant. Ye Feiyang wonders, doesn't anyone want to eat something soupy?But he didn't know that the big guys were just waiting and watching, such a luxurious restaurant, it would not be cheap to have a meal, and it was better to wait for others to go in and taste it.

When the second batch of steamers were brought out, Xiao Lei and the emperor came slowly. It is said that it was because someone finally remembered that today was his cashier day!Ye Feiyang was about to let him in, but Xiao Lei's eyes lit up, and he leaned over to stand beside Ye Feiyang: "I'll help you!"

Sensing the aura behind him that cannot be ignored, Ye Feiyang wanted to cry but had no tears, Xiao Lei, do you want to "show your face" like this!If this continues, the emperor will kill him, for sure!

With the arrival of the emperor, the restaurant ushered in a peak period, batches of customers walked straight inside without even looking at the shed outside, Ye Feiyang smiled and sent Xiao Li to the restaurant immediately to meet the customers, He just needs to stay here by himself.

Hearing the sound of food being called inside, Ye Feiyang's eyes glowed with gold, and he felt that the copper coins were flying into his arms one by one, it felt great!Jixiang was also very happy, dragging the emperor's uncle and running into the building, in fact, he wanted to watch the fun by himself.

Not long after, the old doctor came with Fang Zhengjie, and the little Zhengtai's eyes lit up when he saw Ye Feiyang, and immediately trotted in to play with Jixiang after being touched on the head.

After a while, Xiao San came over shaking his fan, followed by Xiao Mu, but Xiao Mu seemed to be looking for something, looked around Ye Feiyang, and immediately entered the restaurant again. Leaning over, pinch Jixiang's little face: "Hey, come on, call me Uncle!"

Jixiang blinked his eyes, and called obediently: "Uncle!"

Xiao Mu smiled and turned his peach blossom eyes: "As expected of my little nephew, so good!"

The emperor on the side raised his eyebrows silently, wondering if he could also coax Ji Xiang to call Father Emperor, the little guy's childish voice must be the best!

There were more and more guests, and Ye Feiyang finally realized that something was wrong. Why did it seem that all the court ministers came?Otherwise, why would they be so polite to Xiao San.However, no matter what, on the first day of opening the door, it is good to be able to flourish!

Xiao Mu on the other end was still teasing Jixiang, looking eagerly at the snack in Jixiang's hand: "Jixiang, my uncle wants to eat too."

Jixiang looked at the dim sum, then at the handsome uncle, put the dim sum in Xiao Mu's hand, and took another piece by himself.

Seeing this, Xiao Mu immediately looked over eagerly: "Auspicious, my uncle wants to eat this too."

Ji Xiang frowned slightly, and after hesitating for a while, he still gave it to Xiao Mu.

But for the third time, Xiao Mu said shamelessly again: "Auspicious, this uncle has never eaten."

Ji Xiang got angry, threw the dim sum in his hand into Xiao Mu's arms, and even pushed the plate: "I'll eat it all for you!" After speaking, he turned his head away, "Fang Fang, hug, let's go to the backyard to eat. "Fang Zhengjie nodded, picked up Ji Xiang, and the two went to the backyard, leaving Xiao Mu facing a plate of snacks in front of him with the look of an abandoned puppy.

Xiao San looked funny, but ignored him, turned around and sat beside the emperor, hesitantly said: "Brother Emperor, Jixiang..." Ever since Xiao Mu inadvertently tricked out Jixiang that night, it turned out to be Xiao Lei and the emperor's child, Xiao San was in a struggle, should he tell the emperor?If you say so, you are afraid that the emperor will charge Ye Feiyang with the crime of deceiving the emperor in a fit of anger.But if you don't say it, you will feel uneasy. Xiao San knows better than anyone how much the emperor misses that child, otherwise he won't be so kind to Jixiang.Now that I know who the child is, I shouldn't hide it from him in public or private.

But the emperor didn't seem to hear Xiao San's hesitation, turned his head and said, "You also know that Jixiang is my child?" Seeing Xiao San's frightened expression, the emperor smiled slightly, "So in the eyes of the emperor, the emperor Is it so scary?"

"Where!" Xiao San wiped his face: "I'm just a little surprised, since Brother Huang knows, what?"

"Auspicious is still young, it's not safe to put him in the palace. Now that I can see him every day, it doesn't matter if I say it or not."

Xiao San turned around in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "Then Feiyang..."

The emperor looked at him with a half-smile: "You've got your hands on Xiao Lei's younger brother, are you still thinking about others?"

I don't know who got involved with whom!Xiao San, who has always been thick-skinned, somehow remembered something, and actually blushed slightly: "No way, I just care about my friend."

The emperor was surprised and said after a long time: "Feiyang has a good heart, let him teach Jixiang. Jixiang is still young and not suitable for the palace. What's more, Xiao Lei and I just got together. He doesn't want me to know. I don’t know, maybe there will be another prince.”

Xiao San couldn't help sympathizing with Xiao Lei, he really didn't know if it was good or bad to be favored by his black-bellied emperor brother!

Xiao Lei became the waiter in the back shop, and returned to the emperor's side contentedly, holding the auspicious gift in his hand, in an extremely good mood, completely ignoring the little guy's wrinkled face.

The emperor poured a bowl of tea slowly, rescued Jixiang from his arms, wiped the sweat from the little guy's forehead, coaxed him a few words and fed him some tea again, and said abruptly: "I see that you also like Jixiang very much." , why don’t we adopt him as a son.”

"Pfft!" Xiao Lei sprayed the tea all over the floor.Yoshiko!It's over now!How angry the emperor would be if he knew the truth! ! !

Thinking of the future, and hearing Xiao Lei and Ye Feiyang whispering together again, the emperor felt inexplicably happy, and even the intense heat dissipated a lot.

Jixiang seemed to understand, but raised his head and asked, "Uncle Emperor, what is a foster son?"

The emperor smiled and said, "Uncle likes Jixiang, and Jixiang also likes Uncle, so Jixiang is Uncle's adoptive son. Would Jixiang like it?"

The innocent Jixiang nodded without hesitation: "Yes!"

Even the brows of the emperor were tinged with a smile, and he gently kissed Ji Xiang's forehead, and coaxed: "Father, come and listen to that call."

"Father!"

Xiao Lei, who had recovered his breath just now, heard the crisp voice, and almost slipped under the table. When he raised his eyes, he saw the emperor's smiling eyes, no matter how he looked at them, he had the air of a fox!Xiao Lei turned his head to look at Ye Feiyang who was still happily counting copper coins at the counter, and secretly decided that it is better to be afraid than to worry alone, and he will definitely tell Ye Feiyang as quickly as possible that the emperor has recognized Ji Xiang as his adopted son!
