Rebirth Ninety's Fat Wife Should Be Self-reliant

Chapter 104 A family of three

That night, the chef took a total of five orders.

Zhou Huilan was very leisurely, but while she was leisurely, she also noticed something was wrong.

After finishing the last menu, she wandered out of the kitchen out of boredom. Looking at the empty front hall, she always felt that the bustling scene of the opening seemed like it happened a lifetime ago.

"Look, we've lost so many customers in just a few days."

Zhou Huilan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Zhang Yongqiang, she smiled politely and said, "Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Yongqiang waved his hand and handed over an open bottle of beer, "Master Zhou, although your cooking skills are good, your ability to lead apprentices is still far behind..."

Zhou Huilan admitted this, she took the beer and took a sip, "Master Zhao's craftsmanship will not lead to losing so many customers in just a few days."

Zhang Yongqiang smiled and said, "Indeed, this matter has nothing to do with him, it's Niu Guangde."

After Niu Guangde stabilized, he sent an invitation letter to each of the old leaders who liked to eat his stir-fry dishes. He made some kind of copper pot shabu-shabu at his Niuji Restaurant, which he said was a popular way to eat in Beijing.

, called hotpot.

"Hot pot?" Zhou Huilan looked at the grand hotel lobby and felt that they couldn't learn this method. After all, Donghua Restaurant was not very close to the people at the beginning. "They make hot pot, so we don't have to follow suit. I'll prepare some medicinal food."

I can keep up."

"That's not the point." Zhang Yongqiang smiled mysteriously, "There is a document coming from the capital city, which requires a wide selection of local delicacies. Our city leaders said they want to hold some kind of food competition. I'm thinking about it.

We can't lag behind, but if you are busy with the food competition, what will happen to the kitchen?"

Although the master doesn't have to do a lot of work, there are some things that really cannot be done without her.

Before Zhou Huilan could speak, Zhang Yongqiang continued: "Why don't you take this opportunity and bring a few apprentices?"

It is the tradition of a chef to be a master and lead an apprentice.

But after all, Zhou Huilan did not learn from the master step by step, and she never thought about having an apprentice.

But after all, she had her own shares in the Donghua Restaurant, so it was understandable that she and Zhang Yongqiang worked hard to make things better for him, so the next day, she also took the matter of taking on apprentices seriously.

When she got off work, Zhou Huilan came out of the restaurant as usual, but she saw Lu Changqing holding Yaoyao, standing under the sycamore tree at the door, waving to her happily.

"Mom!" Yaoyao trotted excitedly and threw herself into Zhou Huilan's arms.

She was a little confused, and looked even more at a loss when facing Lu Changqing's doting smile, "You, why are you here?"

After he was discharged from the hospital, Lu Changqing dropped off her early and picked her up late, taking Yaoyao as his own business. In the evening, he would come to pick up Zhou Huilan from get off work, but he only took Yaoyao with him. This was the first time today.

"It's not because she's naughty and refuses to sleep. If you can't get up tomorrow morning, your uncle will definitely spank you!" Lu Changqing said, raising his hand as a gesture.

Yaoyao was so frightened that she screamed and hid behind Zhou Huilan, laughing loudly, "I will sleep with my mother at night, and Uncle Lu can't fight me!"

One large group and one small group treated Zhou Huilan as a pillar and made a fuss. When the colleagues who came out from behind saw this scene, they all smiled and greeted Zhou Huilan.

"Master Zhou, these are your lover and child, they look so alike!"

Zhou Huilan was about to answer, but Yaoyao grabbed her arm and almost fell to the ground. When she wanted to deny it again, the colleague who greeted her had already left.

Yaoyao and Lu Changqing were still arguing, as if only Zhou Huilan heard the casual words of their colleague just now.

Yaoyao, who was tired from running, suddenly threw herself into Zhou Huilan's arms, "Mom, let's go home quickly!"

Zhou Huilan nodded and held her daughter's little hand. Lu Changqing directly took the child's other hand. As Yaoyao said "take off", the two of them worked together to lift Yaoyao's little arm and let her

The whole person flew up.

Along the way, there was the laughter of children.

In such a scene, Zhou Huilan could not control herself and fell into it.

Not only her, but even Yaoyao has never enjoyed such joy. She even couldn't help but think about whether they could live happily and openly in the future if Yaoyao was really Lu Changqing's daughter.

The next morning, after arriving at the hotel, Chow Huilan seriously considered taking up an apprenticeship.

The youngest chef is Su Xiaoliang. He is 24 this year and is not yet qualified to cook on the stove.

Next up is Zhang Shaokun, 30 years old, but he is already Master Zhao's apprentice.

The rest are all over 35 years old. Zhou Huilan wants to be their master. Not to mention Zhou Huilan's own awkwardness, it is impossible for these masters to agree.

There are already many people working as cooks, so it is unrealistic to find people from outside. Moreover, young people these days are all pursuing making quick money. Cooking, which requires hard work, is obviously not popular anymore.

After much deliberation, Zhou Huilan chose Su Xiaoliang.

I found an opportunity to mention it tactfully. Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoliang agreed readily.

"Originally I was not qualified to be a master, but I didn't expect that I got a big advantage." Su Xiaoliang said and was about to kneel down and kowtow to Zhou Huilan.

How could Zhou Huilan, who was only two years older than him, dare to accept such a big gift from him? She hurriedly helped Su Xiaoliang up, turned around and saw Zhang Shaokun.

"Master Zhou is going to accept Xiao Liang as his apprentice?" Zhang Shaokun looked a little lonely.

Zhou Huilan didn't understand what was wrong with him, so she smiled and nodded, "It will save you the trouble of something happening in the kitchen if I'm not around."

Zhang Shaokun smiled awkwardly, turned around and left.

However, within two days, Master Zhao and Zhang Yongqiang voluntarily resigned.

He didn't tell anyone about this, but Zhou Huilan knew it. It was because of Zhang Shaokun that he approached Zhou Huilan and said he wanted to learn cooking from her. Only then did Zhou Huilan notice that Master Zhao hadn't come for several days.

Zhang Shaokun was originally a famous person, so teaching him would definitely be faster than teaching Su Xiaoliang. Besides, Zhou Huilan had promised Granny Duan to promote the Xu family cuisine, so she definitely couldn't do it alone. After a little struggle for two days, she accepted Zhang Shaokun.

However, she had never studied with a master and relied on self-study. It was inevitable that she would be a little confused when leading a disciple. She was taught too much and too little for a while. Although she stumbled, she was moving forward steadily.

Half a month later, the results of the paternity test came out.

Zhou Huilan struggled internally for many days, but when she actually saw the report, she still couldn't control her emotions.

The probability of father-daughter relationship in the samples submitted for testing is 99.99%.

As Zhou Zhenhai's daughter, she might have been doomed to misfortune when she was born, but all the misfortunes were magnified after the night when Zhou Zhenhai became so insane that he drugged her.

Lu Changqing said that the night he was at Ning'an Hotel was before New Year's Day.

But she clearly remembered that it was the twelfth lunar month before the New Year. Was the description wrong or someone between them remembered it wrongly.

In front of this paternity test, it doesn't matter anymore.

Zhou Huilan bent down and picked up the appraisal report. When she stood up and walked out, her steps were frivolous and she accidentally bumped into a person walking towards her.

She staggered back two steps and leaned against the wall, but the other person seemed to be more serious than her. He bent over and lay on the ground, holding his stomach in pain.

"Are you okay?" Zhou Huilan was about to step forward when she saw the dark red liquid dripping from the side of the girl's legs.

She was startled, and while helping the girl, she shouted, "Doctor! Doctor, help!"
