    Although this was definitely not a good job, since Wu Chunlai had given the order, Wu Zhong didn't have the guts to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and walk towards Yipinju.  The business of Yipinju was booming. The tables were already full of guests, and there was almost no place to sit. Fortunately, Zhou Dacheng's sharp eyes saw Wu Zhong walking into the restaurant at a glance.  "Hey, Steward Wu, why are you here?" Zhou Dacheng had met Wu Zhong before, and knew that he was Wu Chunlai's steward, so naturally he did not dare to show any slightness.  Seeing Zhou Dacheng's respectful look, Wu Zhong puffed up his chest and said, "I heard that you Yipinju has launched a new dish. My master wants to try it out, so he asked me to give a message to Shopkeeper Yan." "Butler Wu, then.  Please come in and I'll help you lead the way." Upon hearing that Butler Wu wanted to see Yan Yunhua, Zhou Dacheng hurriedly led him towards the back of the lobby.  Zhou Dacheng took Wu Zhong to the side hall of the restaurant, and then walked to the kitchen of Yipinju and told Yan Yunhua and Yan Nantian about Wu Zhong's intention.  After hearing Zhou Dacheng's description, Yan Yunhua asked thoughtfully: "Xiaotian, you said Wu Chunlai sent Butler Wu here to tell us something." "In my opinion, I'm afraid it's for the sake of  Regarding the rent of the restaurant." Yan Nantian pondered for a moment and said, "Grandpa, you might as well go out and see him. I have two dishes that are about to be cooked here. I just want to pack them back for Butler Wu." "That's fine, that's it.  Don't delay anything on either side." Yan Yunhua nodded slightly, then washed his hands, took off his waistband, and then walked out of the kitchen.  After Yan Yunhua walked to the side hall, he saw Wu Zhong sitting on a chair, with a smile on his face and said: "Butler Wu, please wait for a long time." "You're welcome, Shopkeeper Yan, I'm visiting Yipinju today.  "The main purpose is twofold. The first is to pack two dishes for you; the second is to convey a message to you on behalf of our master," Wu Zhong said straight to the point.  "Oh, I don't know, Mr. Wu, if there is anything you want to tell me?" Yan Yunhua asked.  "Our master has told you to move out of the restaurant tomorrow. He will take back the restaurant," Wu Zhong said.  "Why are you driving us away tomorrow? The agreement I made with Wu Chunlai was for seven days, and tomorrow is only the third day." Yan Nantian said.  Although Wu Zhong also felt that Wu Chunlai's behavior was a bit unreasonable, but as Wu Chunlai's housekeeper, he naturally had to stand on his master's side and said coldly: "Humph, this restaurant belongs to the Wu family, let you  Of course, our master has the final say on when to move out. " "Butler Wu, you just said you were going to pack the dishes, and now you are saying you are going to drive us away. Are you willing to burn bridges like this? Pat your chest and have a good conscience.  Is it okay?" Yan Yunhua said angrily.  "Shopkeeper Yan, I'm just an errand boy. I've said everything that needs to be said. It's up to you." Wu Zhong spread his hands and said.  "Butler Wu, what happened? Why did Mr. Wu rush to drive us out of the restaurant?" At this moment, Yan Nantian walked into the side hall and asked.  The back kitchen is adjacent to the reception hall. Yan Nantian heard exactly what the two people said just now, and he was filled with indignation at Wu Chun's change of behavior in the morning and evening.  Thinking that he still had the task of packing dishes, Wu Zhong did not want to anger the Yan family, so he explained: "My master has found a new tenant, and he asked to take over the restaurant tomorrow." "I see." Yan Nantian responded,  He didn't want to deal with the other party, and said to Zhou Dacheng on the side: "Uncle Zhou, bring over the two packaged dishes and let Butler Wu take them away while they are hot." After hearing Yan Nantian's words, Wu Zhong didn't know what the other party was doing.  After driving people away, he was too embarrassed to stay here. He stood up and cupped his hands, saying: "In that case, I'll take my leave first. My master has told me that the money for packing the dishes will be deducted from the rent arrears.  After watching Wu Zhong leave, Yan Yunhua patted the armrest of the wooden chair and said, "Xiaotian, Wu Chunlai will take back the restaurant tomorrow. What should we do?" "Wu Chunlai has found a new tenant and will take back the restaurant tomorrow?"  I'm afraid there's no discussion on this matter." Yan Nantian shook his head slightly and asked, "Grandpa, how much money do we have, can we change to a smaller restaurant?" "Xiaotian, there is a shortage of real estate in Wujiang Town, and it is difficult to find it at the moment.  Renting out the restaurant will definitely delay Yipinju's business, and renting out the restaurant again requires not only a deposit, but also property purchases, which will only cost a lot more money," Yan Yunhua sighed.  "Grandpa, how much money do we still have? Can we make up one month's rent tomorrow? As long as we pay back the rent on credit, maybe Wu Chunlai will continue to rent to us." Yan Nantian said. ?"The monthly rent of the restaurant is one hundred taels. We had forty taels left before. Yesterday we earned twenty taels. Today we have more than ten taels. Now the total is more than seventy taels." Yan Yunhua said.  "Grandpa, today's business is not over yet. I estimate that we can earn twenty taels by evening. If business is good tomorrow, we may not be able to collect one hundred taels of silver." Yan Nantian said.  "Xiaotian, you are right, why didn't I think of it." Upon hearing Yan Nantian's words, Yan Yunhua gained strength again and said, "Xiaotian, let's cook quickly now and try to earn one hundred yuan tomorrow.  Two. ¡°Okay.  " Yan Nantian responded, but he did not relax in his heart. Since Wu Chunlai has found a new tenant, even if he raises one hundred taels of silver tomorrow, it may not be smooth sailing. " However, before he is kicked out of the restaurant, do more  Some business and more money are always a good thing. Even if you really have to move out of the restaurant, you can have more security The Wu family has been rooted in Wujiang Town for hundreds of years.  Wu Zhendong, his father, was good at business when he was young and made the Wu family's property richer several times. In the past two years, he began to take care of the Wu family's property and handed it over to Wu Chunlai. Wu Chunlai was very prestigious outside, but the Wu family was very prestigious.  The person who really makes the decision is Wu Chunlai's father Wu Zhendong. After returning home every night, Wu Chunlai will accompany his father to dine. Wu Zhendong is a man of rules and must eat on time every day. The place where the father and son dine is determined.  , in the side hall of Wu Zhendong's main room. At this time, the sky has not darkened yet, and there is still enough light in the side hall. Wu Zhendong is sitting at the head of the dining table, and Wu Chunlai is sitting beside him.  Why are there so many dishes today? I can¡¯t finish them all and have leftovers.  "Wu Zhendong is on the thin side, but he speaks with a strong voice. "Dad, the restaurant in town has come out with new dishes, so I specially asked someone to pack two of them for you. Do you think they are to your liking?  "Wu Chunlai glanced at it, pointed at the two dishes in the middle of the table, and said. "No wonder I haven't seen these two dishes before.  "Wu Zhendong nodded slightly and said. "Old man, the dish on the left is called Dongpo Tofu, and the dish on the right is called Mapo Tofu.  "Wu Zhong, who was standing aside to serve, quickly bowed and introduced. "Are these two dishes hard?  "Wu Zhendong is old after all, and his teeth are a bit bad, so he can't eat anything too hard. "Dad, it's not hard at all. I've tried it before, so I let you eat it.  "Wu Chunlai said. "Well, you have a filial piety, let me give it a try.  "Wu Zhendong smiled, then picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the Mapo Tofu on the right side. "Dad, what do you think of the taste?  "Wu Chunlai asked with a smile. "It's delicious, numb, spicy, crispy, soft, and chewy like meat.  "Wu Zhendong praised it, and then took another bite of Dongpo meat, and felt that it tasted similar to meat. "Dad, it's delicious, please eat more.  "Wu Chunlai said. Wu Chunlai packed these two dishes with the intention of taking advantage. Unexpectedly, he got it right and made his father quite satisfied. He couldn't help feeling a little proud. "Okay.  "Wu Zhendong responded and said. "Wu Zhendong is a person who loves meat, but he is old and has bad teeth. He can't bite meat even if he wants to. Now after eating two tofu dishes, he found the way to eat meat.  The feeling was that after these two dishes were served, Wu Zhendong must have eaten two bowls of rice, and he also ate more than half of the two tofu dishes, which was twice as much as usual.  ¡­¡± Wu Zhendong burped, patted his belly, and said, ¡°I haven¡¯t felt so full for a long time. These two dishes are very good. I will serve these two tofu dishes tomorrow.¡±  "
