Hou Yu arranged the photos in a row, edited the text, and then posted them on his Weibo.
Because it was already very late, very few people saw the Weibo post that had just been posted, and there were also very few likes.
Hou Yu, on the other hand, was very experienced and didn’t care about it. He continued to look at the photos.
On the other side, Yuan Zhou had a good sleep all night. He slept until his biological clock rang and then got up to exercise.
After the exercise, Yuan Zhou began to prepare for the opening of the restaurant. This time, however, he didn’t put the glowing board outside the door directly. He planned to put it on after the breakfast time.
In this case, he could help to answer the questions. Otherwise, when he got busy, he wouldn’t have the time to explain the specific rules of the vegetarian banquet.
As he had just learned Yunnan cuisine and Guizhou cuisine, Yuan Zhou only had a rough understanding of them. Would they be eating the specialty snacks of Sichuan Province for breakfast? what he prepared today was an especially simple and plain combination of plain porridge and a side dish.
Of course, even if it was just a bowl of plain porridge and some simple side dishes, the taste was still not simple as it was cooked by Yuan Zhou.
As the time wasn’t up yet, the system didn’t remove the smell. Thus, the fragrance of the cooked thick rice was smelled by Wu Hai who was lying on the door. He was currently intoxicated.
“It smells so good. I’m so hungry.” The customers sighed with emotion. Xia Yu, who had just settled down, was among the crowd.
That’s right, Xia Yu only had the time to come over today. Because she lived nearby and was an athlete before, even though she was in poor health and couldn’t exercise, she still got up very early and made it in time for breakfast.
Moreover, this time, there were more seats in the queue than before, among the first batch of diners.
“How delicious is this?” Looking at Wu Hai, who was said to be a famous young artist, Xia Yu was speechless.
According to what she had heard, Wu Hai’s painting was worth millions of Yuan. However, she really couldn’t tell that he was lying at the door of the restaurant.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhou didn’t make them wait for long, nor did he make Xia Yu curious for long. The door of the restaurant was opened.
As usual, Zhou Jia stood at the door and asked people to line up to get a number. Fortunately, Xia Yu’s parents didn’t change her nationality, so she still had an ID card. Thus, she got the number successfully.
“Although I have an ID card, it’s too much for a foreigner to pay us dollars.” Xia Yu looked at the instructions on the queuing machine and frowned in dissatisfaction.
“This is simply a kind of a kind. Forget it, let’s see how it tastes. Otherwise, it’ll be a little embarrassing.” Xia Yu looked at the wide-open store door and felt a little dissatisfied.
Xia Yu wanted to say that this was an invisible form of discrimination against foreigners, but she couldn’t bring herself to say it when she recalled her experience of being discriminated against by white people overseas.
Due to the history of the Republic of China, the Chinese people didn’t discriminate against foreigners. Instead, they worshiped them blindly. They even gave special treatment to foreigners in China. It was because of this that Xia Yu didn’t dare to say that Yuan Zhou’s rule was actually discriminating against foreigners.
Besides, Xia Yu was thinking that it would be a form of pride if the food was delicious, but if it was not, such a rule would be a disgrace to oneself.
Therefore, Xia Yu didn’t say much and just waited to try Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship.
Five minutes passed very quickly. Standing at the door, Zhou Jia directly started to greet him,””The first 14 customers, please come in for your meal.”
As soon as he said that, Wu Hai was the first one to rush into the restaurant and directly sat down at the place near the partition of the long curved table. From there, he could watch Yuan Zhou cook and also eat the dishes immediately. This place was Wu Hai’s favorite.
Although Xia Yu was the first to eat, she only had her turn at one of the four-seater tables.
Fortunately, sharing a table wasn’t unacceptable to her, so she sat down quietly and prepared to order.
“Today’s breakfast is a plain porridge set. It costs 69 RMB per serving. You can pay by cash or bank transfer. ” Zhou Jia talked about the breakfast that day directly.
As soon as Zhou Jia’s voice fell, the customers who had just sat down all took out their money very actively. Only Xia Yu looked at Zhou Jia with puzzlement and didn’t take out her money immediately.
When Zhou Jia received the money from Xia Yu, Xia Yu said,””Is there any other breakfast besides this?”
Xia Yu didn’t really like porridge for breakfast. After all, she had already eaten light food when she was an athlete. When she returned to Sichuan, she wanted to eat something spicy and forget about plain porridge.
“We only provide one type of breakfast every day. Today, we only provide plain porridge and side dishes.” Zhou Jia explained seriously and gently.
“Only one? What about the menu?” Xia Yu naturally noticed the menu behind her and raised her eyebrows.
“Those dishes are only available during lunch and dinner. As for the desserts, they are not available at a fixed afternoon desserts time.” Zhou Jia said.
“Alright, one serving of plain porridge.” Xia Yu wanted to leave, but when she turned around and saw the many diners staring at her covetously, as well as the matter of the queuing machine, she sat down again.
“Okay. Cash or bank transfer, please?” Zhou Jia nodded the head and said.
“Bank transfer.” Xia Yu had learned how to make electronic payments ever since she returned to the country, so she naturally chose this simple method.
“Please wait for a moment. Your food will be served soon.” After confirming that she had received the money, Zhou Jia immediately said.
“Yes.” Xia Yu nodded slightly and did not speak.
In a short while, Zhou Jia carried the food Xia Yu ordered. It was a small white porcelain bowl, slightly bigger than the ordinary small bowls used at home, but only slightly bigger. There was also a small shallow plate on the side with a thin brownish-red color inside and some shredded vegetables with white sesame seeds on it.
Normally, a bowl of rice congee would be enough to fill one’s stomach. However, it was different for Yuan Zhou’s congee. Almost as soon as it was served, the customers began to say that there was too little and it wasn’t enough.
Yuan Zhou had long been used to hearing these words. He just scooped the congee seriously and didn’t say anything. Therefore, the customers could only lower their heads and eat.
Xia Yu, on the other hand, felt that the amount was acceptable, so she took a closer look at the porridge in front of her.
Yuan Zhou used the spring water sticky silk Miaomiao rice that was late-ripened in the season to cook the congee. This rice was known as the Jade in the rice and was also known as the best food in rice. The rice oil was rich and fragrant, and it was soft but not rotten.
Hence, the congee in Xia Yu’s bowl was just right in thickness, just enough to fit the chopsticks without falling over. The water of the congee was just right, the rice grains were slender and crystal clear, exuding the fragrance of rice. It was more lustrous than the White porcelain bowl and looked very good.
The small plate of side dishes also exuded a slightly spicy and pungent smell. However, this smell aroused Xia Yu’s appetite.
As the congee was accompanied by side dishes, Yuan Zhou prepared chopsticks for the customers. Fortunately, Xia Yu also used chopsticks at home when she was abroad. Therefore, she picked up the chopsticks and started eating directly.
Xia Yu first picked up a side dish that whetted her appetite and stuffed it into her mouth.
As soon as the side dish entered her mouth, a numbing and spicy feeling spread in her mouth.”Cha Cha,” the side dish made a crisp sound when Xia Yu chewed it. At the same time, a faint sweetness neutralized the spiciness at the beginning. The crisp and tender side dish also burst out with a fresher feeling than that of fresh vegetables.
“It’s quite delicious and appetizing. ” Xia Yu’s eyes lit up and she immediately picked up the porridge in front of her and started drinking.
With the spicy, fresh, and sweet side dishes in his mouth and a slight choking taste, the fresh congee instantly warmed his stomach that had been empty for an entire night, making him feel a faint warmth.
“It’s comfortable,” Xia Yu, who was 1.8 meters tall, could not help but curl up in the small chair and relax her brows.
He didn’t look as depressed as he did before he entered the shop …
