"Manager ~" Betty pushed the door open and walked in. Then she saw Chen Ze setting up the barbecue stall and a big bucket full of skewers.
"This is?" Betty blinked and felt that she was about to drool. Every time Chen Ze made a new dish, Betty was the happiest.
Chen Ze looked at the restaurant door in confusion. He remembered that he had just locked the restaurant. How could Betty still come in?
"Betty, we're not open today. I have to go out and buy something." Chen Ze explained. In fact, he planned to go out and set up a stall to make money. There was no other way. The customers in the other world couldn't provide money. In order to earn money, Chen Ze could only choose to go out and make money.
"Eh? Then can I play games in your room? "It seemed that because Chen Ze saw through her little trick, Betty was now more direct.
Chen Ze's mouth twitched. "You can understand it?"
Betty shook her head. She definitely couldn't understand it.
"If you can't understand it, then why are you playing?" Chen Ze rolled his eyes. How could she play if she couldn't understand the words?
"But it's really interesting." Betty rubbed her hands excitedly, the tail behind her swaying.
Chen Ze sighed helplessly. What was going on? A good succubus was almost raised into an otaku by him. Chen Ze felt that he had committed a heinous crime.
"Okay, you can play if you want, but you have to clean up and help me wash my clothes." Chen Ze walked to the front door of the restaurant and looked. It was indeed unlocked.
This was a big mistake. If it wasn't locked, Chen Ze didn't think that Betty had the ability to entertain the customers who came in later, so Chen Ze immediately put a lock on it.
"Manager, you're the best ~" Betty pounced on Chen Ze. Chen Ze dodged with a small move. He didn't want to be hit in the face by a steel plate.
"Since you're here, let's just have something to eat today." Chen Ze scratched his head and looked at his phone. It was half past six. It was still early and he hadn't had dinner yet.
"Manager, what are we eating today?" Betty followed behind Chen Ze curiously.
"Today, I'm going to eat Wild Rice, Stir-Fried Pork with Wild Rice and Tomato Scrambled Eggs. Hmm … I'll also have a Seaweed Egg Drop Soup." After thinking about the ingredients in the kitchen, Chen Ze quickly decided what to eat today.
"Okay, manager. I'm going to clean up now." Betty rolled up her sleeves and went to clean up energetically.
Chen Ze took a look at the soaked wild rice. It looked much better than when he had gotten it in the morning. Chen Ze scooped out the wild rice. After simply filtering the water, he took it to cook.
"I really haven't eaten rice before." Chen Ze scratched his head. This grain, which had been passed down in Hua Xia for so long, had disappeared during the Southern Song Dynasty. But now, it had returned to people's dining tables.
"Stir-Fried Pork with Wild Rice is easy to make. Let's make the Seaweed Egg Drop Soup first." Chen Ze put a small pot on the gas stove.
Although it was the Seaweed Egg Drop Soup, Chen Ze's Seaweed Egg Drop Soup wasn't the kind that looked like a pot full of egg drops but actually didn't have much to eat.
Although Chen Ze drank this kind of Seaweed Egg Drop Soup several times a week during his college days, he still didn't have enough egg drops.
After simply heating up the pot, Chen Ze poured the eggs that had been stirred well into it. He stir-fried them for a few times. After the eggs were set, he sprinkled some salt and scooped them out. He put them in a small bowl by themselves.
At the same time, the soup at the side was boiling. Chen Ze added a piece of seaweed and poured the eggs in the small bowl. In this way, the eggs wouldn't be boiled and scattered. Instead, they floated in the seaweed soup in small pieces.
"Let's start making the Stir-Fried Pork with Wild Rice and Tomato Eggs." Chen Ze looked at the prompt that popped up from the system without any fluctuation in his heart. With his current culinary skills, it was still very easy for him to make these simple home-cooked dishes.
In a short while, Chen Ze finished making all the dishes for today and put them on the table. Then, Chen Ze looked at the rice cooker. It hadn't jumped yet. He estimated that he still had to wait for a while.
"Ah, Wild Rice … What does it taste like?" Chen Ze was a little curious and licked his lips. It was said that Wild Rice was more nutritious than regular white rice. However, Chen Ze wasn't interested in the nutritious value. He just wanted to taste how it tasted.
When the rice cooker finally jumped, Chen Ze looked at the time. It was already seven o 'clock.
"Betty, it's time to eat." Chen Ze took out two bowls and shouted while filling them with rice.
"Manager, why is the rice this color?" Betty looked at the bowl in front of her in confusion. She had worked in Chen Ze's restaurant for a while, but she had never seen rice like this.
Betty had seen and eaten white rice before. It looked very beautiful and tasted very good. It was even better than the white bread she ate at home.
"This is Wild Rice … In short, it's rice." Chen Ze gave up the idea of telling Betty about the history of Hua Xia. He had to go out and set up his stall as soon as possible.
Chen Ze ate almost three mouthfuls in a short while. Then, he said goodbye to Betty and pushed his barbecue stall out.
"It tastes good." Chen Ze thought to himself. The Wild Rice did taste a little different from ordinary white rice, but it was still very delicious. Chen Ze decided to buy ten kilograms of it later.
Chen Ze pushed open the door and looked at the lively night scene outside. He smiled and put on his headscarf. These were all walking bills.
Betty was sitting at the table and eating quietly. Without Chen Ze, Betty seemed to be a completely different person. She ate the Wild Rice in small bites and scooped a spoonful of tomato egg. She liked this red and yellow dish very much.
"Ah, this thing is really difficult to use." Betty frowned and looked at the two pieces of wood in her hand. She didn't understand why Chen Ze only used this thing when eating. It was super difficult for her to use it. It was not as convenient as using a knife and fork.
If Chen Ze was here, he would know that Betty was actually using his chopsticks. However, Chen Ze wasn't here, so no one else would know.
When Chen Ze finished selling the barbecue skewers and dragged his tired body back to the restaurant, he saw a dish he had never seen before and a glass of lemonade. Betty had unlocked the door and went back.
Chen Ze sat down curiously and looked at the plate in front of him. There was a kind of meat on the plate, but Chen Ze was sure that this was not an ingredient from Earth because this piece of meat was golden.
"Is this Betty's dish?" Chen Ze smiled, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
Then, Chen Ze regretted it. He felt that Betty's cooking was probably similar to his high school self. She could use ordinary ingredients to make terrible dishes.
Chen Ze quickly spat out the meat and took a sip of the lemonade.
"Puff! Did you put salt in it as sugar? "
