Chapter 354 Another New Dish
Xu Yiyi glanced at him sideways.
"If I'm not mistaken, the contract you signed with Hong Gang didn't go through a brokerage firm, right?"
Fatty Wang chuckled awkwardly.
indeed so.
The two signed a private contract, and because it wasn't handled by a brokerage firm, he dared to leave on that day.
Unexpectedly, this Mr. Xu is quite shrewd.
……
The vermilion seal of the official brokerage firm on the contract was not yet completely dry.
Xu Yiyi folded the document and put it into her sleeve. Wang Pangzi followed behind, holding the contract slip given to him by the brokerage firm in his hand. The rough mulberry paper softened slightly in his sweaty palm.
"Come straight to work tomorrow..."
The two walked down the street one after the other, and Xu Yiyi casually remarked.
Fatty Wang waved his hand, "No need for that. I can start working today."
He's been resting for several days now; if he rests any longer, his skills will become rusty.
Moreover, spending all day at home taking care of the children is making him feel frustrated and anxious.
He usually spends his free time after work playing with the children.
But after a while, it became harder to manage.
After all, both children in the family are boys, and they are at a lively and active age.
He's overweight and gets out of breath easily after running even a little.
After chasing after the two kids for several days, I actually lost several pounds.
It's all thanks to his wife; she takes such good care of the household, and their two little grandchildren are chubby and healthy.
Xu Yi glanced at him and said, "Whatever."
Turning the corner, the restaurant's backyard was already bustling with activity.
Xu Anyang was squatting by the bluestone platform, fiddling with the fresh produce that had just been delivered that morning.
Fresh pork ribs and chicken and duck meat were piled up like mountains.
All kinds of seafood were being carried in basket after basket.
However, Xu Anyang was puzzled by the unusually large variety of vegetables delivered today.
And just now, the tofu stall delivered several baskets of tofu, along with some other things that I don't know what they are.
"Sister Yi, why are there so many vegetables delivered today?"
Xu Anyang held up a bunch of small green vegetables covered in dew; their freshness suggested they weren't cheap.
"We're going to cook a new dish today, so let's move these vegetables inside first, and sprinkle them with water every now and then to keep them from wilting..."
Xu Yiyi gave instructions.
He then walked to the eaves and picked up all the tools.
Old Lu clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction upon seeing this.
"You've been in the water for so long, and now you're out again. Don't you care about your health?"
Xu Yiyi tucked the dagger into her waistband.
A-Yue chased after her from the kitchen and stuffed a package of oil paper into her hand: "Freshly baked sesame cakes, still warm."
"I know what I'm doing; I won't stay in the water for too long."
Xu Yiyi said calmly.
Old Lu shook his head helplessly.
Fatty Wang craned his neck to look: "What does the shopkeeper want...?"
"Don't ask too many questions."
A-Yue glared at him, then turned to Xu Yi in a low voice and said, "The tide is not at the right time. It would be safer to wait two more hours."
Xu Yiyi shook her head and pointed to the faint dark clouds on the horizon: "There will be more wind and rain this afternoon."
Then, with a clanging and clattering sound, they dragged a bunch of things to the dock.
She deftly untied the rope, and the small boat swayed gently with the waves.
Sihai had somehow slipped to the shore, his little hands gripping her clothes tightly: "Big sister, take me with you!"
"We'll talk about it when you can swim across Reef Bay."
Xu Yi flicked his forehead with her finger and slipped a copper coin into his palm. "Go buy some candy, but don't let your brother know."
The waves pushed the small boat away from the shore, gradually moving further and further away.
"What are you looking at?"
A-Yue slammed the cleaver into the cutting board. "Peel the garlic!"
