Cute Beast Food Garden

"Good little bird, eat more."

The man smiled softly, and threw small melon seeds to himself sitting in the cotton bird's nest.

"Guji... Guguji..."

Little Wings was holding the round melon seeds, and the little beak was pecking them.The small melon seeds are fragrant and crunchy, and the taste is really delicious when chewed.

"This is the restaurant's latest signature nut set, and the little bird is the first to taste it."

As he ate and ate, the more the little fat bird pecked, the more he felt something was wrong.Why do these melon seeds become softer the more you peck them?And, still move?

The little bird looked down and was stunned.What is held in the little wings is not a melon seed, but a chubby little bug!

"Guguji—!"

With a loud cry, Qi Yan opened his eyes, only to find a pair of dark and narrow pupils close at hand.Frightened and dazed, he hastily waved his short wings.

slap--!

After two slaps, the little bird opened its big light blue eyes and stared blankly at the two symmetrical wing marks on the face of the man in front of him.

Being hit on the cheek by the bird that woke up suddenly, Si Dongmo was not annoyed, but held it in his hand with a smile and lifted it up.

"Little bad bird, as soon as you wake up, you will slap people."

"Guji..." I didn't mean it!It was just a nightmare.Seeing the man looking at him tenderly, the little bird scratched its hair with the tips of its wings and muttered embarrassingly.

It moved its feet, turned to face Si Dongmo, folded its wings together in the middle, leaned its fat body forward, and made a gesture of bowing and bowing.

"Guji Guji." Handsome guy, I'm extremely sorry.

Seeing the little fat bird imitating others and making an apology gesture, Si Dongmo laughed: "You little guy, you are too cute!"

cute?Am I cute?The little bird stopped bowing, and its two small wings arched and stuck to the sides of the waist, making it like an akimbo.

"Is the little bird akimbo?" Si Dongmo looked curiously at the round "waist" of the bird, and couldn't help saying, "Your waist is so round."

"... Gu Gu Ji!!!"

The man who accidentally told the truth suffered a terrible blow, and his slender fingers were pecked several times by the sharp beak of the bird.

However, this honest man still didn't change his nature. He raised his pecked finger and said frankly: "The finger is so itchy from being kissed."

"..."

The bird who was hit by the critical attack kicked his legs and passed out again.

"Qi Yan! Qi..." The man shook the little bird gently, seeing the furry little guy's eyes closed and his body softened into cotton, he shook his head half helplessly, half amused.

Putting the little bird back under the quilt in the rest room, the man went out, only to find Boss Lan sitting quietly on the wicker chair in the yard, sipping hot tea.

"Boss Lan."

Seeing Si Dongmo walk outside, Boss Lan's eyes flickered imperceptibly, and asked in a gentle tone, "Brother Mo, are you okay?"

"Thank you, Boss Lan, for your concern. I'm fine now." The man pursed his lips with a relaxed smile, "I was probably too tired before, and I fainted for some reason."

Boss Lan looked at him slowly, with a calm expression on his face.

"I saw something strange on your back before you passed out. Has this happened to you before?"

"Ah?" Si Dongmo looked a little confused, and unconsciously stretched out his hands to the lines on his back, "Ah, that's right--I used to have needle-like pain in my back, but like today It was the first time that I fainted suddenly."

Boss Lan thought about it for a while, and asked, "Are the lines on your back from your birth?"

Si Dongmo was slightly taken aback.He looked into Boss Lan's eyes, and only heard the other party say: "I have seen similar-shaped lines on a certain person. He has carried these lines since he was born, and as he grows older, the appearance of the lines There will be changes."

Si Dongmo frowned, and recalled: "It seems that the lines on my back have existed since I can remember. Over the years, they have stayed on my body peacefully, and they rarely feel tingling."

Boss Lan scratched his chin and narrowed his eyes.

"Brother Mo, what do you think makes you special compared to other people?"

"Excellence?" Si Dongmo scratched his hair in embarrassment. Seeing Boss Lan's serious expression, he also began to think seriously, "Probably...more strength, more capable of farm work, and cooking. ?"

"Forget it. But I'm more curious... where did you learn your kung fu?"

"Kung Fu?" Si Dongmo lowered his eyes, looked at his fists, and laughed, "Actually, I have figured out the skills in boxing and kicking myself, and I have never learned from anyone. The Le family used to be quite wealthy. At that time, the nursing master taught me two-handed kung fu.

Later, the Le family fell into disrepair, and we were bullied by gangsters in casinos in the village.In order to protect my family, I often fight with gangsters. After going back and forth, I have accumulated experience in long-term actual combat. Coupled with my strength, many people think that I have practiced kung fu. "

"Oh, that's how it is." Boss Lan thought thoughtfully, "So, in terms of fighting, Brother Si, you can be regarded as 'taught without a teacher'."

"Maybe! Haha..."

After chatting for a while, Si Dongmo heard gurgling noises coming from the room.He nodded to Boss Lan and said: "Qi Yan seems to have woken up, I'll go get him some tea."

"Okay, I'm going back to the front hall too."

Walking slowly towards the front of the house, Boss Lan frowned.

"Si Dongmo, could it be that you are really..."

……

After the farce in which the beggar gang kicked the restaurant, the Fourteen Restaurant was not only not weakened, but became even more famous because of its excellent response ability and the full support of Mr. Su, the supervisor of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.Not only has it become a famous restaurant most frequently visited by residents and businessmen in the town, but the dispute over the beggar gang blocking the door has also become a topic of discussion after dinner.

This morning, in the rare shade in the town, many people sat on the street with small stools, chatting in twos and threes.

The boy in plain clothes was walking hurriedly on the street with a big paper bag in his hand.He has an outstanding handsome appearance and a tall and slender figure, which attracted the attention of many passers-by when he was walking on the road.

Qi Yan walked quickly towards the restaurant.Pushing the door open and entering the room, he saw a familiar figure sitting beside the table in the hall.

"Brother Ah Jin!"

"Hey, Qi Yan!"

Ah Jin was chatting with Boss Lan, when he suddenly heard a clear shout from the young man, he immediately turned around, and the young man who rushed over waved his hand: "You are here! Long time no see, seems to have grown a little taller?"

"Really?" The boy smiled crisply, and put the paper bag in Ah Jin's hand.

When Boss Lan saw it, he asked, "Is this specially bought for Ah Jin?"

"Haha, this is not for me." Ah Jin picked up the paper bag, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, "Well, it's a good roast chicken. This is the favorite of Master Zhao, the former chef of Shanhuo Shop. He just loves the roast chicken from this restaurant in the south of the city."

Just as he was talking, Si Dongmo also came out from the back room, carrying his and Qi Yan's luggage on his shoulders.

"It's time to go." Looking up at the dim sunlight outside the window, the corners of Si Dongmo's mouth easily lifted, "Go to Maozhu Mountain to visit Master Zhao, and ask him for his unique recipe for cooked food from the mountains."

"Yes, with it, our restaurant can take care of both dinner and snacks at the same time!" Qi Yan was full of confidence.

Restaurants in the town usually only serve meals, and snacks and snacks are almost monopolized by snack shops and mountain goods stores.Now they are looking for the secret recipe of snacks. If the development is successful, it will be of great help to the establishment of the restaurant in the town, and the revitalization of the restaurant will allow Si Dongmo and him to share more dividends.

Previously, the restaurant had received a large order from the government, and because of the beggar gang kicking the restaurant, it accidentally set off a craze for delicious noodles. Just relying on the commission, Si Dongmo's account has already received thousands of copper coins.I believe that as long as this momentum is maintained, before the end of this year, Si Dongmo will definitely be able to pay off all the family's debts, and maybe take the opportunity to make a fortune as the principal of his future fortune.

As his partner, Qi Yan also got half of the profits.However, he didn't have any place to use the copper plates for the time being, so he deposited all of them in Yinzhuang in his name, in case of emergencies.

While driving, Ah Jin introduced them: "This time the place we are going to is called Maozhu Mountain. It is a small hill between Luoxia Town and Lezhuang. It is quite remote, and there are not many residents in the mountain. This Mr. Zhao is very old and has no children, living alone on the mountain all year round is quite hard."

Qi Yan felt some clues, and asked: "Brother Ah Jin, since this master Zhao was the former master of the Shanhuo shop, why did he live alone in such a remote place? Is he not very rich and living a bad life? "

"You guessed it right, Master Zhao accidentally broke his arm more than half a year ago, and he can no longer help the shop make snacks. The few apprentices he taught by hand are not things, so they took this opportunity to join hands with him from the shop. Because he was thrown away by unscrupulous apprentices, he felt ashamed, and he had nothing to do with them, so he took his savings and hid in the mountains."

Ah Jin rubbed his chin, and shook his head with the expression of telling a story to a child: "However, masters and apprentices usually keep a hand. Master Zhao kept the unique secret recipe of snacks and did not pass them on to those evil-minded disciples." .I think his 'Shanshui Baxian' was all the rage in the past, and it is a well-deserved signature snack of Shanhuo Shop! But now that he lives in seclusion in the mountains, it is difficult for us to eat authentic 'Shanshui Baxian'."

As Jin said, he sighed sympathetically, "Master Zhao is kind and honest. When he was still in the store, my brother and I went to sell goods together. When it was hot, he would give us mung bean soup. After he moved to Maozhu Mountain, we sometimes went to see him on the mountain. Alas, although it is not so miserable that the house is empty, but it is very inconvenient for an old man to live there alone. When we went, he pretended Acting as if he didn't care, he even cooked for us and invited us to dinner."

After listening to his narration, Qi Yan suddenly felt distressed.The master worked hard day and night, teaching skills, but he was eventually framed by a shameless and bad apprentice. He was forced to leave the mountain goods store where he made a living, and lived alone in the mountains. I don’t know if the master’s broken arm better.

Seeing the sad expressions of Qi Yan and Si Dongmo, Ah Jin patted them both on the shoulders: "Hey, don't worry. If the old man knows that someone is willing to go to the mountains to see him, he will bring his favorite food, which he is reluctant to part with. He will be very happy."

He continued: "Before, there were some restaurant owners who were interested in the secret recipe in Master Zhao's hands. They went up to the mountain to ask for advice with generous rewards. However, Master Zhao was already scared by the white-eyed wolf apprentice, so he said nothing. They are willing to easily give the secret recipe to people they don’t know well, and they don’t accept money or property, so the bosses have no choice but to leave empty-handed.”

Seeing that Qi Yan and Si Dongmo looked a little confused, Ah Jin waved his hands again: "But, don't worry. Master Zhao is very kind and gentle. He is just afraid that his secret recipe will fall into the hands of unscrupulous people. If If there is a chance, he will definitely be willing to wear the secret recipe, after all, it is what he has devoted his whole life to it! If it can make his life better and his unique snacks flourish, he will definitely not begrudge him, and give his Pass on the secret recipe."
