The next day, when Ye Jiayao went to work, Deng Haichuan pulled her aside.

"Brother Xiang blew up last night, be careful."

Ye Jiayao was amused when she heard it: "What's the method of blowing hair?"

Deng Haichuan looked at her with an unbelievable expression, how could she still laugh?

"As you said, I told everyone after I finished drinking the wine. Brother Xiang invited everyone to drink this wine. At that time, Brother Xiang's face was smelly, and it could be heard from ten miles away. I will honestly say that he returned the wine. You posted two taels of your reward silver, Brother Xiang didn’t say a word for a while, and then...he smashed the wine jar, pointed at my nose, and gritted his teeth. I thought he was going to beat me up, but , Fortunately, the fist did not fall, otherwise my face would bloom today." Deng Haichuan described the scene at that time with lingering fear.

This time he completely offended Brother Xiang, and he was clearly on the side, and Li Yao will rely on him from now on.

Ye Jiayao wanted to laugh when she thought of Zhong Xiang's distraught look, that's right, she was just playing tricks on Zhong Xiang, who made him sing along with Liu Qisheng yesterday to mock her.

She patted the frightened Deng Haichuan: "It's okay, I paid for his treat, and he took all the face, what can he say about me? At worst, pay me back!"

Ye Jiayao guessed well, and not long after, Zhong Xiang came in under a dark cloud, his face as black as a piece of carbon, four taels of silver was slapped in front of her, and he said bitterly: "Repay your money, I want to treat, I will treat myself, You don't need to pretend."

Ye Jiayao pretended to be aggrieved and said: "Brother Xiang, I think you have misunderstood. We all work together, and no one is responsible for who's credit. Everyone has worked hard. If you get a reward, everyone will share it. You should, but you don't want it." , I just wanted to add something more, invite everyone to drink, the big head is yours, so naturally you invited it, if I do something wrong, Brother Xiang, you think I don’t know the rules when I first came here, so don’t bother with me. "

Ye Jiayao's words won the approval of most people. All along, in the kitchen, the chef is the supreme existence, and the subordinates only have to be scolded for doing things. Over the years, I have only seen Li Yao as an exception, who can be sympathetic Everyone's hard work, and Li Yao's doing this is not to give Brother Xiang face, Brother Xiang is too small.

Cui Dongpeng stood up and spoke: "Yes Brother Xiang, Brother Yao just wants everyone to be happy, there is no malice."

Zhong Xiang was about to vomit blood, you are happy, are you happy watching brother being teased and watching a play? Brother is being played like a monkey, are you happy?

As the saying goes, you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs. Unfortunately, Zhong Xiang's pig teammates are on the stage.

Liu Qisheng pointed at the crowd and said contemptuously: "You people, your minds are covered with shit? How does Brother Xiang treat you? Chef Niu loses his temper. When did Brother Xiang take it for you? After paying someone a few taels of silver, you can't wait to call him your father?"

"Liu Qisheng, what are you talking about? I think it's because of your shit-stirring stick that things are making trouble like this." Wang Mingde, who has never spoken much, jumped up.

"That's right, what's wrong with Brother Yao giving us the rewards? As long as Brother Yao can say that everyone has worked hard, I will recognize Brother Yao as a friend. It is a trivial matter to have money or not. Liu Qisheng, you also worked hard all the way from handyman. Have you ever seen anyone who is like Brother Yao, who thinks of his brothers in everything? To be a man, you must have a conscience." Cui Dongpeng said.

Others also agreed one after another, and Liu Qisheng immediately became the target of everyone's venting, the target of public criticism.

Zhong Xiang's face was so dark that it couldn't be darker. He felt that everyone was leaving him and standing against him.

Ye Jiayao saw that it was almost done, and came out to smooth things over: "Everyone, stop talking, I'm to blame for this, I didn't think about it."

Wang Mingde said: "Brother Yao, you are right about this matter."

Deng Haichuan reacted quickly, and said with a mournful face: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault. Brother Yao didn't allow me to say that I drank too much alcohol and my mind is not clear. Brother Xiang, Brother Yao, I'm to blame for this. I'll apologize to you. "

Ye Jiayao glanced at Deng Haichuan in surprise, okay Deng Haichuan, he is really smart and has a bright future.

Public opinion completely turned to Ye Jiayao's side, Liu Qisheng was overwhelmed by everyone's accusations, Zhong Xiang was isolated and helpless, disheartened, turned away with a dark face.

Ye Jiayao said: "Everyone goes to work, I'll talk to him."

Zhong Xiang sulked while sitting on the stone mill in the yard, Ye Jiayao walked over and sat down next to him.

"Brother Xiang, I know what you think in your heart. Why did this kid treat me on an equal footing? Isn't it because of Erniang's relationship, or because of his handsome looks." Ye Jiayao imitated his tone and said.

In exchange Zhong Xiang rolled his eyes.

Ye Jiayao was not annoyed, and continued: "You feel that you have worked hard for many years to achieve today's achievements, and I am so young, it is not fair." Ye Jiayao smiled bitterly: "Actually, there is nothing in this world that is truly fair. , Yes, it can only be in relative terms.”

"I can say without humility that no one in this kitchen has been learning cooking longer than me. I was born in a family of chefs, and I was hugged by my father to learn how to cook before I could speak. When I learned to use chopsticks, I already knew how to hold a spatula. At the age of six, I was able to cook a big meal for the whole family on a stool. When others were playing with mud and slingshots, I was playing with all kinds of knives..."

"Although no matter what kind of craft is God's reward, it can't be done without talent, but it can't be done without acquired hard work. I will never pay less than you."

Listening to her chatter, Zhong Xiang's anger gradually calmed down. No wonder this kid is so powerful, so he came from a noble family.

"It's purely a coincidence that I met Li Erniang. I stayed at her inn when I came to Jinling. I knew that I was a cook and was looking for a job, and there was a shortage of cooks here, so I brought me here to have a try. Brother Xiang, talk about cooking skills Skills, maybe you are not weaker than me, but cooking is not a rigid procedure, follow the recipe step by step, cooking is like completing a unique work of art, integrate the feelings of the cook into it, resonate with it, and give it uniqueness Many people don’t understand this, so they can only be a cook for a lifetime, while some people can become masters.”

"I'm better than you at this point, brother Xiang, you can't accept it."

Ye Jiayao looked at Zhong Xiang confidently.

Zhong Xiang hesitated to speak, it was the first time he heard such a novel statement, after pondering it seemed quite reasonable.

Every time I cook, I am completing a task. Being a cook is just to make a living, and I have never thought about so many esoteric things.

"Perhaps you think I'm showing off and winning people's hearts by giving rewards to everyone. Speaking of showing off, I have never thought about the hardships of being a cook, especially the hardships of the cooks at the bottom. I am very clear, because I also came here like this myself, so I am just very simple and hope that everyone's hard work will be rewarded."

"As for winning people's hearts, I admit that I have such an idea, but it is definitely not for forming cliques. It is not easy for everyone to work together. If you have to work hard every day and have to intrigue with others, it is really tragic. I I hope everyone will be happy with He Lele, and it will be exciting to do things like this. Brother Xiang, what do you think?"

Zhong Xiang's thoughts were completely led away by her, and he couldn't find any words to refute.

"Since I felt your hostility, let's put it this way, maybe you just can't understand me, and you can't call it hostility. I asked my brothers in private, what kind of person is Brother Xiang, and the answer I got was amazing. They all agree that you, Brother Xiang, are a good person. So, Brother Xiang, if you are the one who relocates, will you share the silver reward with everyone?"

Zhong Xiang thought for a while, feeling a little ashamed, maybe he still can't do this.

Ye Jiayao smiled: "I heard that your pastry is very good. I think, with my ideas and your craftsmanship, maybe the pastry will become another brand of Tianshangju. As long as we cooperate sincerely, I think, Shopkeeper Li doesn't need to hire any chefs anymore. This is my opportunity and your opportunity, whether it is to compete against each other or to benefit each other, the choice is yours, Brother Xiang."

Zhong Xiang was a little moved. Li Yao told him so much openly and pointed out a completely different road for him. It seemed that his vision widened in an instant, and something was about to move in his heart.

But can he trust her?

Seeing that the ideological work was almost done, Ye Jiayao took out the four and two halves he gave her and put them on the stone mill.

"If Brother Xiang chooses to fight me to the end, then you will come in later and slap the money in front of me. If Brother Xiang thinks that I, Li Yao, are not so bad, you can accept the money as soon as it is worth paying."

After Ye Jiayao finished speaking, she went back to the kitchen. When she turned her head, she saw a dozen heads sticking out of the door. Seeing her turn around, she hurried away as if nothing had happened.

Are these boys still afraid that I will fight with Zhong Xiang? Ye Jiayao shook her head and smiled wryly. Nima, I don't know that my mother is so good at talking. I have said everything that needs to be said. As for whether someone wants to open it or not, it is someone's business.

She will not blindly accommodate and swallow her anger. You are good, come and I am good to go, if you want to die, I will send you on your way. It's that simple.

However, she believed that Zhong Xiang would make the right choice. If the two of them had a serious fight, Zhong Xiang should know who Li shopkeeper would choose to stay.

In the kitchen, everyone was busy, but everyone's mood was not at peace. They looked at the door from time to time, why didn't Brother Xiang come in.

"Brother Yao, why didn't Brother Xiang come in? Do you want me to go..." Although Deng Haichuan chose to side with Li Yao, he still hoped that Li Yao and Brother Xiang could coexist peacefully.

"No, let him think about it slowly." Ye Jiayao said lightly.

Only when Zhong Xiang really figured it out, will the matter be over.

After another cup of tea time, Zhong Xiang came in.

Everyone's gazes followed Zhong Xiang's figure in unison. Zhong Xiang went to get his apron and tied it, walked to his chopping board, and began to chop vegetables.

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally the world is peaceful.

The corner of Ye Jiayao's mouth curled, she expected that Zhong Xiang would not have the courage to tear his face again. From everyone's evaluation of Zhong Xiang, it can be seen that Zhong Xiang is actually a very patient person, so she once provoked him to jump, vented all his emotions, and then talked to him. Negative emotions are kept in the heart all the time, and it is easy to go wrong.

"Brother Yao, the young prince Jing is here again and wants to see you." Xiao Lu ran in to report.

Ye Jiayao frowned, didn't she tell him yesterday? Don't come here so diligently, besides, it's not time for meal now.

"I'm busy, let him wait." Ye Jiayao said angrily.

Hearing everyone gasped, Brother Yao was so imposing, he dared to leave the little prince alone.
