Wang Hong didn't expect that the noodle restaurant across the street could make better noodles than Boss Yuan's.
Because Wang Hong couldn't think of a single author who could surpass the standards of The Kitchen God.
"Maybe Boss Yuan likes it because it has some special characteristics." This was Wang Hong's thought.
Then, when Wang Hong approached the noodle restaurant and saw the name of the restaurant and the small signboard at the door, he understood.
"The Standby Noodle Restaurant. So that's what it is." As a person who often watched short videos, Wang Hong naturally knew what the Standby Noodle Restaurant was.
Now, there were nine bowls of noodles in the Standby Noodle Restaurant.
Wang Hong asked curiously, "Boss, does anyone eat the Standby Noodle Restaurant?"
"A customer ordered one bowl these days," the boss answered.
Wang Hong nodded. Then, he paid for a bowl of Standby Noodle Restaurant and left.
After all, he had just come out from The Kitchen God and couldn't eat a bowl of noodles …
"Little Yanzi, let everyone know that today is the Winter Solstice. Every customer can order a bowl of mutton soup," Yuan Zhou instructed.
In fact, Yuan Zhou called her Ruoyan at the beginning. At least, it was a normal name. But since the Black Beast took the lead and called her Little Yanzi, most customers began to call her that. Then, Yuan Zhou also called her that.
After all, the Black Beast was poisonous.
"Okay, boss." Su Ruoyan nodded.
She didn't go out but directly took out her mobile phone and announced this matter in various groups. This was something that all the foodies had been looking forward to for a long time.
"Boss, someone asked how much the mutton soup costs and if it will appear on the menu in the future?" Su Ruoyan asked when she saw many people asking questions.
"60 yuan for a bowl. It won't be available during normal times. This is the benefit of the Winter Solstice Festival," Yuan Zhou said simply.
"Got it, boss." Su Ruoyan lowered her head again and conveyed Yuan Zhou's message.
After the matter was settled, Su Ruoyan left. There was still a long time before lunch. Yuan Zhou did not go upstairs to wash up immediately. He first went into the kitchen to check on the soup that he had been cooking since morning.
It was a huge bucket that seemed to be made of gold and silver, and was about half the height of a grown man. Inside it was boiling a snow-white soup, and occasionally, some bones could be seen.
This was the mutton soup that Yuan Zhou had been cooking since morning.
Since yesterday, Yuan Zhou had noticed that today was the Winter Solstice, so he went to the place next door where the whole lamb was roasted underground when he went to the pub at night. He asked the System to provide two fresh lambs and slaughtered them so that he could provide a bowl of lamb soup for every customer today.
Since ancient times, there had been a saying that "Winter Solstice is as big as New Year's", and it was considered a relatively important festival before New Year's. Therefore, Yuan Zhou also wanted to celebrate it with his customers.
It should be enough to prepare two lambs for lunch and dinner. However, Yuan Zhou had kept a lamb leg for himself. He had already made an appointment with Yin Ya. It was rare that she did not have to work so late today. She could come for dinner around 8: 00 pm. At that time, he could eat the lamb soup and cook some lamb dumplings with her.
Thinking of that scene, Yuan Zhou was looking forward to it very much. Ever since Yin Ya came back from her business trip, she had been working overtime non-stop. The two of them had not been alone for almost 10 days. Today was a rare opportunity.
Actually, many young people did not pay much attention to festivals. Let alone New Year's, it was all about the atmosphere. As for the Winter Solstice, it was up to fate.
The lamb soup provided by The Kitchen God made the Winter Solstice more ceremonial.
Of course, no matter how many customers came, Wuhai was still the first. However, Wan and Chen Wei also came early today.
Wuhai saw the two people on the street from the window. Therefore, he directly slid down the slide at lightning speed and stood at the head of the table immediately.
Of course, he had good eyesight. As the Black Beast didn't play with his phone much, he spent all day eating and drawing.
The new assistant of the Black Beast, Zhou Xi, had always been following Wuhai's lead. Therefore, he slid down from the slide behind Wuhai's buttocks without waiting for him to call him.
"This black beast is too fast," Chen Wei grumbled.
"It's normal. Wuhai's house is the closest to Boss Yuan's. It's not a big deal. We can just go in and eat first." Wan patted Chen Wei's arm and comforted him.
"You are right." Chen Wei immediately nodded his head and echoed.
At lunchtime, the customers all ordered a bowl of lamb soup. The snow-white lamb soup, the lamb as thin as a cicada's wing, the fine lamb giblets and the emerald green onions looked very appetizing, let alone eating it.
After drinking a mouthful of the lamb soup, the boiling hot soup flowed down his throat and into his stomach. He felt warm and comfortable.
Basically, all the customers ordered an extra bowl of lamb soup.
The customers who had eaten the lamb soup at lunchtime all went to the QQ group to earn free comments. As a result, more people came for dinner. All of them wanted a bowl of lamb soup.
Of course, there were also some who couldn't make it. For example, the programmer, Wu Zhou. He was immersed in his work, modifying the program. He was as busy as a spinning top.
"I must go for a tonic tomorrow." When he finished his work, he found that dinnertime had already started. He could only clench his fist and cheer inwardly.
As for Ma Zhida, he had accepted a business mission in the morning and set off immediately. He came here only for breakfast. Then, The Kitchen God provided the lamb soup for dinner and lunch … That was really heart-wrenching.
Back to the main topic. During dinner, Zheng Jiawei came here after finishing the art gallery. Just as he arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, he met Wuhai and Zhou Xi, who had come out contentedly.
"Brother Jiawei, are you done? We have all eaten. Have you eaten?" Zhou Xi rubbed his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"It's fine. I'll just eat something casually later." Zheng Jiawei wanted to celebrate the festival with Xiao Lin. "Hahaha, I have an idea.
"Hahaha, I have an idea. Let's celebrate the Winter Solstice with Compass tonight. Of course, we have to celebrate the festival together. Jia Wei, go get us a lamb now. We have been eating Compass's lamb every time. This time, I need to prepare the ingredients. This is called reciprocity." Wu Hai suddenly had an idea.
"That sounds good." Zhou Xi nodded.
"Alright. Leave it to me," Zheng Jiawei promised. He had to find a good lamb.
Wuhai didn't tell Yuan Zhou about this in advance. He said that he wanted to give Yuan Zhou a surprise.
Yuan Zhou didn't know that Wuhai and the others wanted to celebrate the festival with him because they were afraid that he would be lonely and cold. Dinnertime soon ended. After passing a small bowl of lamb soup to Su Ruoyan, he immediately went upstairs to wash up. According to his estimation, Xiao Ya should be arriving soon.
As expected, he heard a knock on the door when he went downstairs to the backyard after washing up.
Yuan Zhou took two steps forward and opened the door. He immediately saw Yin Ya outside. It was probably because she had been walking outside for a while. The night wind was chilly. Her fair face was a little red, and even her nose was a little red. It made her look a little cute.
"Xiao Ya, come in. It's cold outside." Yuan Zhou moved sideways to let Yin Ya in.
"Happy Winter Solstice!" Yin Ya handed an exquisite bag to Yuan Zhou.
"Thank you. I have a gift for you too. I'll bring it to you later." Yuan Zhou took the bag and held it.
"This is the scarf I picked. See if it fits." Yin Ya followed Yuan Zhou's hand and walked into the store.
