Chapter 882: Taking an External Order
"If it's delicious, eat more. Mom doesn't like sweet things, so eat the rest slowly."
Mei put down the spoon and said that she would just taste it, and leave the rest for Xiaoke to eat slowly.
Xiaoke pouted and said, "Okay, my mother is just like most mothers in that she is reluctant to eat the food and leaves it for the child."
"If mom doesn't eat, I won't eat either."
Xiaoke put down the spoon as she spoke, as if she would definitely not touch it again unless Mei Shi ate it.
"Okay, okay, Mommy, eat, Mommy, eat!
Eat it quickly, didn’t you say that the cream will melt if left out for too long?
Mei urged Xiaoke to eat quickly. Xiaoke used a spoon to split the small dessert in half and pointed at the larger piece and said:
"Mom, eat this piece, and I'll eat this piece."
Seeing her daughter's stubborn look, Mei could only nod and agree.
A small dessert was finished with the mother and daughter laughing and talking.
After finishing her dessert, Mei looked at herself in the mirror and found that the lip balm she had just applied had hardly faded, which gave her another big surprise.
The lip balm she used before had to be extremely careful every time she ate, but it would always fade away, and most of it would fade away, which was very troublesome.
In the evening, when Xiaoke finished washing up and was about to take off his clothes to go to bed, a number of identical white gadgets fell out of his pockets.
"Xiao Ke, what is this?"
Mei helped her pick them up from the ground one by one. These tiny things had patterns of little white rabbits painted on them.
Is this food for rabbits?
Mei was extremely confused.
"Oh! This is the candy Sister Xiaotang gave me! I forgot about it!"
Xiaoke said this as she stared at the milk candies that her mother had placed on the table. They were so tempting that she even felt she could smell the sweet milky aroma of the candies.
"Don't eat sweets before bed, or your teeth will turn black and get worms."
Mei didn't mean to scare her daughter on purpose. Eating candy before bed and not brushing your teeth thoroughly can really damage your teeth.
Thinking of this, Mei secretly made up her mind to take on more embroidery jobs recently and earn more money to buy Xiaoke the popular toothbrush and toothpaste. It is said that the combination of these two can make the teeth clean better.
"Okay, let's not eat tonight. Let's eat together tomorrow morning~"
Xiaoke swallowed and huddled back into the quilt. Really, if she looked at it any longer, she would feel like she was committing a crime.
On the third day of the opening of Lin's Beauty and Nail Salon, Lin Yutang, who was helping out in the store, suddenly received a call from Chen Xi:
"Hey, Xiaotang, I have an old customer who asked if I could come to his house in a couple of days to help cook a meal.
But, this meal he made is probably a little different from what we made in the past."
Originally, after hearing the first half of the sentence, Lin Yutang wanted her to agree directly if the price was right. After all, an old customer had asked before if she could help them prepare a family banquet.
Lin Yutang and Chen Xi had discussed it and generally speaking, they would accept the job as long as the price was right. After all, Lin's fast food restaurant now had several more helpers. If Chen Xi and his parents went out to organize a banquet for a day, it would be no problem to leave the work in the store to others.
But Chen Xi obviously didn't finish her words, so Lin Yutang gestured for her to continue.
"The old customer said that his guests this time were from abroad, and the food they eat there seems to be different from ours, like steak and other things, which I don't know how to cook!
Oh, by the way, he also mentioned some kind of bread with meat in it, I guess it was Roujiamo?"
Chen Xi quickly told Lin Yutang the information he knew. It depended on her whether she could take the order.
"I can take this order. I know how to make the steak you mentioned, and the meat in the bun should be a hamburger."
Lin Yutang thought that since there were only a few people eating, it would be fine to have some steak.
In Dayi Country, it is generally not allowed to kill cattle while they are still alive. The cattle must have died of natural causes.
So although beef is hard to buy, it is not impossible to buy. So it will be no problem for her to take out a few steaks from the space when the time comes.
As for the hamburgers, we will take out the ready-made hamburger buns and let Chen Xi and the others make and assemble the meat patties after they get there.
"Okay, okay! I'll go tell him later! Let me tell you, this old customer is very generous. He used to give me tips whenever he got a new dish he liked, and he would tip me a few taels for every ounce.
I helped him solve the problem this time, so I guess I’ll get more money. Hehe.”
Chen Xi was so happy that his face was filled with the words: I’m rich, I’m rich!
"Then I'll go to your shop and teach you later."
Lin Yutang and Chen Xi agreed on a time and hung up the phone. Seeing that the nail salon and cosmetics shop were busy and orderly, she took Lin Zhi to Lin's fast food restaurant and prepared to teach Chen Xi and the others how to cook some foreign delicacies.
