Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

"Grandma, how does this roast suckling pig taste?"

"Is it to your taste?"

Seeing the old lady eating the roast suckling pig, Xu Ziqi asked.

Putting down her chopsticks, the old lady nodded and looked at Xu Ziqi, "Well, it's very delicious. Where did you buy it?"

Xu Ziqi patted his chest, with a little pride in his tone, "I didn't buy it. I made it early in the morning."

The old lady couldn't believe it and asked Xu Ziqi with her eyes wide open: "Did you really make it?"

Before Xu Ziqi could speak, Xu Gaoyi spoke first: "Mom, you forgot, I told you before that Ziqi opened a restaurant, and he was the chef in the restaurant."

The old lady remembered that her son did mention this when he called before.

But her memory is not very good.

There is no way, this is how old people are.

Not only can't hear, but also can't remember, it's almost impossible to take care of yourself.

"I didn't expect my grandson to be so good. Grandma has never eaten such delicious roast suckling pig."

Stretching out a wrinkled hand, the old lady smiled and took Xu Ziqi's hand and praised him.

"This is nothing."

Xu Ziqi also held her hand with his backhand, picked up another piece of roast suckling pig for the old lady, and continued: "If you want to eat it in the future, I will make it for you every day."

After that, he picked up a piece for the old man, "And you, grandpa, too, eat more."

"Well, you eat too." Seeing Xu Ziqi put the roast suckling pig into his bowl, the old man also smiled with satisfaction.

Usually he lives with his wife, and there are very few opportunities for three generations of grandfather and grandson to sit together for dinner like this.

So he cherishes and enjoys this simple but happy family atmosphere.

Not long after, the family finished their meal.

Xu Ziqi helped to clean up the dishes and went out for a walk.

The air in the countryside is very good. Walking on the country road and breathing the fresh air, he feels very comfortable.

Occasionally, he would see some cats and dogs playing, and he would follow them and watch with interest.

When he saw something exciting, he would throw a few stones over, and then the small animals would scatter, and then he would laugh.

It's a pity that he didn't buy firecrackers, otherwise he might take firecrackers to find some big cow dung and hit them hard like he did when he was a child.

The cow dung flying all over the sky is also a special childhood memory.

While walking and looking on the road, Xu Ziqi also met some neighbors.

When the neighbors saw him, they didn't recognize him at first, after all, Xu Ziqi hadn't been back for a long time.

When Xu Ziqi took the initiative to say hello, they realized that the young man in front of them was the college student from the old Xu family.

Then they all greeted him enthusiastically.

"Our college students are back."

"Are college students back to visit the graves?"

"How is your job? How much do you make a month? Do you have a girlfriend?"

...

Faced with the enthusiastic neighbors, Xu Ziqi also responded politely.

He answered some insignificant questions truthfully, and laughed off some more personal questions.

The neighbors did not ask more questions, as it was just a casual courtesy.

When he left, the neighbors were talking behind him.

"Tsk tsk, look at the child of the old Xu family, he is really good-looking."

"What's the use of good-looking? I just heard him say that he opened a restaurant. He studied in college for four years and came back to do this kind of work. It's like he went to college for nothing. It's just a waste of money and time."

"That's right. It doesn't require a high level of education to open a restaurant, right?"

"It doesn't need it, but you don't look down on people who open restaurants. I have a relative who also runs a restaurant and can make hundreds of thousands a year. So it still depends on the person."

"Forget it. Whether they make money or not is their business. It has nothing to do with us. Besides, people in this era pay attention to not showing off their money. Maybe they are making a fortune quietly."

...

When Xu Ziqi returned home, it was already past three in the afternoon.

Dad, Mom, Grandpa and Grandma had finished their nap. At this time, they were sitting on the wooden sofa chair in the living room and chatting.

Seeing Xu Ziqi coming back, Liang Sufen took the initiative to say hello.

"You're back. Your grandma made you some glutinous rice balls. They're on the table. Serve them yourself."

After hearing what his mother said, Xu Ziqi noticed that there was a small electric rice cooker on the table.

At this time, his grandma also came over and opened the lid of the electric rice cooker. The old lady looked at Xu Ziqi kindly and said, "Eat it while it's hot. It's just been made."

"Yeah." Xu Ziqi nodded and declined his grandma's kindness to help him serve the glutinous rice balls. He took the spoon himself.

The small glutinous rice balls jumped gently from the electric rice cooker into the bowl with Xu Ziqi's movements.

After scooping the glutinous rice balls,Xu Ziqi scooped a few more spoonfuls of soup, then took the bowl and found a chair to sit down.

After sitting down, he looked at the glutinous rice balls in the bowl.

Each small glutinous rice ball was snow-white, and through that layer of snow-white, you could vaguely see the black filling inside.

From here, it can be seen that this should be a sesame-filled glutinous rice ball.

Xu Ziqi scooped up a glutinous rice ball with a spoon and put it in his mouth.

Then he tasted it slowly.

First, he felt its soft and glutinous texture, and as his teeth gently bit it, the filling inside slowly flowed out.

After biting it a few times, he could feel its sweet fragrance.

"Grandma, this glutinous rice ball is so delicious!"

After eating a glutinous rice ball, Xu Ziqi nodded and said to his grandmother with a smile.

Although the taste of this glutinous rice ball is not perfect, and it is a world of difference from what he made, it is not bad.

And this glutinous rice ball is made by grandma.

In any case, what you eat is this familiar taste in memory.

And this kind of taste is sometimes more moving than some delicacies from land and sea.

"Well, if it tastes good, eat more."

Seeing her grandson wolfing down the glutinous rice balls in the bowl, the old lady also laughed happily.

A bowl that was eaten up was the greatest recognition of her craftsmanship.

Although this kind of craftsmanship may be ordinary, it is enough to make her family satisfied.

After eating the glutinous rice balls, the family sat and chatted for a while.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Xu Ziqi also said goodbye to his grandparents.

He and his parents should go back.

Today is a day off, and tomorrow we have to continue working.

"Grandpa and grandma, my parents and I will go back first."

After saying goodbye to his grandparents, Xu Ziqi took the things and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." Grandma called him again.

Xu Ziqi turned around and didn't ask what was going on.

The old lady suddenly took out a stack of money and put it in his hand, "Take this money and buy yourself some clothes and some delicious food."

Xu Ziqi was stunned for a moment and quickly refused, "No need, grandma, I have money, you can spend it yourself."

The old lady was very stubborn, "No, take it, grandma can't use this money, you just started working, there are many other places to spend money."
