Chapter 11
Dou'er and Gong Ping shook their heads and sighed in unison, but Song Cheng didn't pay attention at all. Song Cheng saw Gu Lousheng ran out in a panic, turned around, lifted the curtain and went back to the backyard.Dou'er and Gong Ping mourned in silence, which caused dissatisfaction among the guests who came down from the second floor.
"Get out of the way!" Hearing this, Dou'er scratched the base of her ears, and hurriedly stepped aside with Gong Ping to the side of the stairs, making way for her.
The two of them were whispering to each other on the stairs just now, probably blocking the guests coming down the stairs.The second floor of the restaurant is mostly private rooms, and most of the people sitting upstairs are wealthy owners, so Douer and Gong Ping quickly moved away when asked to get out of the way, not to be offended.Although that voice made Douer feel uncomfortable no matter how he heard it, he was very arrogant.But you are a customer when you come to the door, and it is not easy to say anything when you open the door to do business.
Coming down from the upstairs was a young man of about seventeen or eighteen, wearing a taupe-colored gown, with one hand behind his back, and the other pointing his fingertips to the handrail of the stairs.The Gu family is considered to be a few well-to-do families in the county. Gu Changxin is responsible for the food and clothing of the family. During festivals, Douer also goes to the shop, and knows a lot of good food.But now the fine cloth is worn on the man on the stairs, but it doesn't match at all. Instead, it looks like a fat man with a swollen face, who has no money to wear good cloth and is frightened.
The man raised his eyebrows, looked down at the two of them, and said unceremoniously: "A good dog doesn't block the way. As a guy, why don't you have this quality, and even block the way of customers, why don't you hurry up and get out of the way."
Dou'er felt her eyelids twitch when she heard the words, and when she raised her head, the anger in her heart began to rise.Gong Ping held Douer's hand, squeezed his palm, and signaled, don't be impulsive.Dou'er has a fiery temper, so what to say, if the two of them get into a fight, it will not be easy to end it.
Dou'er is not a clerk in the Gu's restaurant, he is still a junior boss, just to save money for the Gu family, he is also a troublemaker at a young age, so he simply works as an errand boy for the restaurant.Even if he is a buddy, he is a good person, with a rich family and a clean body, so why should he be abused by some messy people for nothing?Both were born to two parents, who is taller than whom?
"What? I'm not right?" The man took out a feather fan from nowhere, fanned it nondescriptly and slowly on his chest, looked up at the restaurant, and said in a bad tone: "Oh, I said, Lin'an is not good either Where are you going? This place is so small and so dilapidated that it’s useless for me to come here from neighboring countries. Tsk tsk, your restaurant can really keep going. Look, this wood, this ground... Tsk tsk! By the way, especially I'm too embarrassed to talk about the food in your house... I guess it's time for your shop to close when the master walks out of here..."
Gong Ping rolled his eyes and turned a blind eye to the man. His remaining rationality made him pull Douer back behind the counter and mutter in a low voice: "Don't be angry, Douer, he is the puppy, his whole family... no, alas, anyway Don't be angry with that kind of person, there's nothing wrong with it." Gong Ping comforted Dou'er in a soft voice, following Dou'er's back.Just now I was almost out of choice and greeted my whole family, my father would scold me if I found out!But as soon as he finished speaking, Dou'er raised his head, raised his neck, and challenged the man.
"Hey! I'm sorry to say it, but don't spit out ivory! You are afraid of wasting your spittle, and our ears hurt! Look at your indecent appearance, with a swollen face and a fat man! You hate me Lin'an is not good, then you go back, I think my food is not good, you have the guts to spit it out for me! Didn't I see you eat a lot just now, like a starving ghost reincarnated! What? Can't spit it out? Do you want me to help you!" After saying that, he was going to go around from behind the counter and give the other person a kick to help him spit it out.
Gu Jiadou'er's temperament is well known in the whole county.Straightforward, eccentric, it is very pleasing to meet elders with sweet mouths.However, if he encounters someone who doesn't like his eyes or has a dirty mouth, or insults people who shouldn't be scolded with unscrupulous words, he will scold you when he is unhappy, no matter who you are, it is very aggressive.
At this moment, the man on the stairs was speaking rudely, being choked by Dou'er, he opened his mouth as if he didn't know how to argue, blushed, and swung his fan to his side, not to be outdone, but he was already in a hurry to slip out He said: "One guy is so arrogant, it's enough to see that if the folk customs of Lin'an are low, you can't even eat a good meal, it's really not worth it, I won't pay the money!"
"Hey! Want to eat the overlord's meal? Let's change an excuse, is it your fault?! Didn't you say it's not delicious, then I'll let you go if I spit it out! How about it? The restaurant is run by my family, What I say is what I say! Since you want to learn how to behave like a bully so much, and you have the ability to eat the king's meal, I have the ability to let you go out sideways and learn how to crawl like a bully!" Dou'er crossed her arms and grinned.
Even if people from all over the world did not know Gu Lousheng, they all knew Gu Douer.Everyone eating in the restaurant also heard that it was a man who spoke rudely, not only to Dou'er, but also to the entire Lin'an Kingdom.Just happened to meet Gu Douer's temperament, and after a while, he felt that the restaurant was full of gunpowder smoke, and knew there was a good show to watch.
"Your restaurant is a black shop! I'm going to find someone to seal it up!" The man's face paled and paled. He looked around and saw that no one wanted to help him. He came alone, and even the people upstairs Stretched his neck to see his joke.Dou'er smiled brightly when he heard that, he was short, but he was not short in imposing manner.He stood below the man and looked up at him, touched the ground with a broom, and said with a smile: "A black shop, right? The young master will let you see what a black shop is. Don't worry, you don't have to go out of the gate of our restaurant." , I can seal you up first!"
Gong Ping watched from the side, sweating silently for the man, Douer was really angry!Tell you to owe!Call you provocative!Dou'er getting angry is no joke!
Song Cheng brought out the sweet-scented osmanthus brew just now, but Gu Lousheng ran away, so he went back to the kitchen, put the bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus brew back into the pot, and heated it up on a low heat, thinking that when Gu Lousheng came back, he could eat it while it was hot up.So when he washed his hands and came back to the restaurant, he saw such a tense look.
Song Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at the person on the stairs, but he didn't pay attention, and walked quickly to Dou'er to ask what's wrong.Douer just opened his mouth to want Song Cheng to step aside first, but when he came to deal with it, someone opened his mouth before him.
"cousin!"
Dou'er trembled all over, his scalp was numb, he was choking on his own saliva, and felt goose bumps.His eyelids started to twitch again, he frowned, and looked up at the man on the stairs with his neck raised, whose cousin was he calling?Gong Ping also wondered, who is this calling?The people in the restaurant were even more puzzled, why they stopped arguing, what kind of relatives do they recognize!Didn't you mean a foreigner? Why did a cousin appear!
Song Cheng looked around, pointed at himself, and asked the man on the stairs, "You called me?" The man straightened his head, anxiously about to come down and stand beside Song Cheng.But Douer glared at him, and he just took two steps before retracting his steps in embarrassment, looking at Song Cheng: "Cousin, you don't know me anymore? I heard that those officers beat you to death and threw you away." Mass grave, you are still alive!"
Douer was still lighting the ground with the broom, looking at the man, he didn't hear the joy of reunion, the joy of knowing that Song Cheng was not dead, but a sense of relief at seeing the savior , and it doesn't matter whether Song Cheng lives or dies.
"Brother Song, do you know him?" Dou'er stood on tiptoe, biting his ear at Song Cheng, while Song Cheng looked blank, he didn't know if Song Cheng of this body recognized the man in front of him.
"I know you?" Song Cheng had regained his life, and he didn't know anything about the previous owner of this body.Although I got acquainted with the villagers when I fled on the road, I didn't ask my relatives at all.The folks probably knew that Song Chenghe didn't have much contact with relatives at home, so they didn't mention it.At this moment, he was also at a loss, not knowing how to react.
Everyone in the restaurant saw that the excitement was gone, sighed, and each buried their heads in eating their own food, regardless of whether he was related or not, he was not interested!When several people froze, Gu Lousheng rushed in at a trot.After he calmed down, he ran in when he found a few people standing at the door, so he frowned and asked, "Why is this?"
Gong Ping leaned over and told the story in a low voice, Gu Lousheng frowned and looked at Song Cheng a few times, then at the man.Gu Lousheng also felt a little uncomfortable, saying that Lin'an is not good, let's forget that his own restaurant is not good, and also said that Song Cheng's cooking skills are not good, if it doesn't taste good, why do you spit it out!But if the man is really Song Cheng's relative, he is really embarrassed to let Dou'er beat him up, so he waved his hand and told everyone to go to the backyard, and don't disturb the guests from eating in front.
"Cousin, I'm Song Qi!" As soon as they arrived at the backyard, the man opened his mouth again, causing Dou'er to feel a chill.He suddenly thought of the booklet of calligraphy and painting that he and Gong Ping saw when they went to the market a while ago, and the characters in it also called others so affectionately, so surprised that he jumped aside. Terrible, I feel that the goosebumps of my life will be gone.
"Um, actually, when I woke up in the mass grave, I forgot a lot of things, and... I don't remember you." Song Cheng also told the truth, but of course he would not be so stupid as to say that he woke up in the mass grave In fact, there is a new person inside the body.If someone finds out about this, they might be caught and burnt to death.
Gu Lousheng and the others all heard Song Cheng say something about him, and they also knew about his "near death".Dou'er saw that Song Qi's face was indifferent, but he didn't have any disappointed expression, so he couldn't help but opened his mouth to doubt: "I said, this is not an excuse you made, right? Brother Song just doesn't remember things, and you want to eat the overlord's meal , I want to use this to renege on my debt!"
Song Qi felt that he was about to be beaten by this boy with a broom just now, but fortunately he saw Song Cheng.He shook his head, and stepped back a few steps in fear, away from Dou'er, then pulled out a jade pendant from his waist, avoiding his eyes and not daring to look at Song Cheng: "Although my relationship with my cousin is not very good, But it is true that there is no random recognition, this is passed down to us by grandpa."
Several people looked at Song Cheng, but they saw him nodding: "I do have a piece on my body, which seems to be able to be put together." Song Cheng also took out a jade pendant, which he didn't pawn when he fled. I just think it should be very important to the owner of this body.
"Well, this is a couple." Song Qi nodded, heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Song Cheng: "It's lucky that you didn't die." Gu Lousheng didn't sound right when he heard this sentence, how dare he say it like Is it like "It's a pity you didn't die"?
Song Cheng didn't care, looked at Gu Lousheng, Dou'er and Gong Ping, and then at Song Qi: "Then you think I want me to go back with you? I'm living well here." Before he finished speaking, Song Qi hurriedly waved his hand and denied it.
"No, no, you don't have to go back with me, I have no other intentions." Song Qi seemed to be relieved, thankfully Song Cheng had no intention of going back, on the contrary, he was very nostalgic for this place.
Gu Douer glanced at Song Qi: "Come on, we know, the relatives are real, but don't you just want to eat the king's meal! Just now you said that the food made by Brother Song is not good, and you don't want to To get involved with Brother Song, I just waived your meal money, you can go away if you have nothing to do!" Dou'er didn't bother to use a good tone to Song Qi, but it was rare that Gu Lousheng didn't stop Dou'er from being rude.
"Cousin, do you know how to cook?!" Song Qi seemed taken aback, and said in confusion, "I remember you used to be unable to tell the difference between soy sauce and vinegar." Gu Lousheng became impatient, and now he cooks It's very good, isn't it?As soon as this kind of thought surfaced, Gu Lousheng was taken aback, why did he defend Song Cheng so well!
Song Cheng heard the other party say that the food he cooked was not delicious, and inexplicably thought of his previous life, he subconsciously resisted, and his voice was very flat: "Although I don't remember much, I shouldn't have much contact with you, you I don’t know that it’s normal for me to learn cooking from others.”
Song Cheng seemed to be able to see the contempt and disgust in Song Qi's eyes.If he didn't feel wrong, this Song Qi should not have a good relationship with Song Cheng in this body, and he doesn't have much contact with him.The contempt that flashed in his eyes when he heard that he was a cook just now did not escape his eyes.That's the best way, Song Cheng didn't want to have anything to do with the previous things, and it happened that Dou'er issued an order to evict the guests, and drove them out without saying a word, leaving a clean slate.
The man wanted to say something, but Dou'er didn't give him a chance, and drove him out with a broom.After the door was locked, Dou'er was still muttering: "If he hadn't suddenly used Brother Song as a shield just now, I would have beaten him long ago, who is this?" Song Cheng smiled and patted Dou'er on the shoulder , I feel that I don't care too much.After being disturbed by this incident, he also forgot the sweet-scented osmanthus rice stuffing that was hot in the pot. At this moment, thinking of it, he hurriedly went to the kitchen to take it out and handed it to Gu Lousheng.
"It's cold, you didn't add any clothes when you went out just now, so drink it quickly to warm your body." Gu Lousheng happily picked it up, and pursed his lips after drinking it, still wanting more, but he completely forgot why he ran out to calm down up!I also forgot all the miscellaneous things I thought about on the road!
Song Cheng smiled and took the bowl back to the kitchen, his mood was so messed up that he almost hummed a ditty.Dou'er and Gong Ping looked at each other, shook their heads, sighed, and then rushed up to ask for sweet-scented osmanthus wine, or said that Song Cheng was partial.For a while, there was endless laughter in the backyard.
