Chapter 225 The Big Table About to Retire (Second)

Feng Jiandong was also very careful about the tasks assigned by his wife. The next day he went to the carpenter's house in the village to inquire about it, and he also reported the approximate size of the table needed in the restaurant to the carpenter.

The carpenter in the township made a comparison based on the size, and it turned out that the number of tables in his hand were slightly shorter.

But the carpenter also had his way, he directly helped contact a table and chair processing factory in a nearby town. Coincidentally, that factory happened to have a number of tables, the height of which matched Su Kee's chairs.

But the problem encountered is that the tables in the table and chair factory are square tables.

Feng Jiandong simply drove himself, took the carpenter to the factory, took photos of the tables, and sent them to his wife.

The time to post the photos happened to be the busiest time for Su Ji, and Lu Cuiling couldn't take care of it either, because she wanted to help greet the guests.

In the past two days, the number of guests arriving at night has not increased much, but the number of guests arriving at noon has increased.

Obviously because there are big tables in Su Ji, some people are still not used to ordering dishes with others. However, many people are still very happy to come over at noon for a fried rice, a bowl of noodles, and a taste of Su Kee's various toppings.

When she was busy, Lu Cuiling took the time to glance at her mobile phone.

I saw the pictures and messages sent by my wife on the phone.

"After searching for a long time, I didn't find the kind of long table you wanted, but if you find this kind of square table, can you see it?"

Lu Cuiling looked at the photos on the phone and found that the square table seemed pretty good.

Although it is not a long table, but through my wife's multi-angle shooting, the square table looks from the photo, whether it is the color or the specifications, it is really matched with Su Ji.

Lu Cuiling first showed it to her father-in-law to take a look.

"My father-in-law, look, what do you think of such a square table?"

Su Jinrong sat in a wheelchair, looked at the mobile phone Lu Cuiling was holding in front of him, and carefully looked at the square wooden table on the photo.

Carefully, Su Jinrong really has to say that the square wooden table in the photo is really good.

Each table is made of wood. Although it is not very good wood from the photos, the table top is still very smooth, and the corners of the table are also very smooth.

In the corners of the square table, there are also hollow carvings, which add a touch of antique beauty to the plain table.

The most important thing is that, judging from the color, it just matches the chairs in the restaurant.

Su Jinrong watched for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "Well, it looks appropriate."

Lu Cuiling listened to her father-in-law said it was appropriate, and said with a smile: "Okay, father-in-law, you think it is suitable, I will ask Lao Feng to order it, and then find a time to send it directly over there."

Su Jinrong hesitated and said, "Let, Yifan, Ruoxi, take a look."

Lu Cuiling nodded: "Yes, it's for Ruoxi to see. She is the boss's wife now, and she still wants her to make up her mind."

When Su Jinrong heard this, he also smiled. He really didn't know what to say to this mother-in-law?

People say that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law may be natural enemies.

But in Su Jinrong's view, her daughter's mother-in-law and her are more like mothers and daughters in the previous life. Many times Su Jinrong felt that his son-in-law looked like he was adopted by his mother-in-law.

But Su Jinrong is naturally very happy to have such a mother-in-law for her daughter.

After Lu Cuiling waited for her daughter-in-law to finish her work, she showed her mobile phone to her daughter-in-law to see: "Ruoxi, take a look, this is from your father-in-law. He only found this kind of square wooden table. Do you think it's okay?"

Su Ruoxi took a closer look, and also compared it with the chairs in the restaurant.

In the end, Su Ruoxi decided that it was okay: "Well, Mom, I think it is. Although they are all square tables, we can put the two into one if necessary."

When Lu Cuiling heard her daughter-in-law's words, she immediately said: "Look, how come I didn't expect it, it's so right, you can sit together."

Then Lu Cuiling said: "Okay, since you and your father-in-law think it's okay, then I will tell your father-in-law and let him fix the table, order 18 directly, and let them come over there in these two days. ."

At this time, Su Ruoxi said, "Mom, if Dad has enough numbers, he will just ask for 20."

Lu Cuiling thought for a while, and she felt that 20 cards were indeed okay, so she nodded and said, "Okay, then we need 20 cards."

After that, Lu Cuiling went out directly, called her wife and asked him to book 20 tables directly. And also seriously instructed on the phone: "We must ensure the quality of each table, you can't ask for those crooked melons and cracked dates."

On the phone, Feng Jiandong naturally promised repeatedly that he would watch the loading and supervise the quality of each table.

Finally Feng Jiandong asked: "Then when shall we send it to you?"

Lu Cuiling thought for a while and said: "You sent it on Saturday. It happened that on Saturday, your son and daughter-in-law are going to take a rest and prepare to take baby Ruoruo on an outing.

Feng Jiandong asked with tears and laughter: "You all said you want to take Ruoruo on an outing, and you all have gone. Who will be responsible for receiving those tables then? Are we still waiting at the door for your return?"

Lu Cuiling thought for a while and said, "No, let the little apprentice of her son help guard the restaurant when you come."

After thinking for a while, Lu Cuiling said: "After you came, with your son's apprentice Xiaolin, watching them unload the table, and by the way tidy up the big tables in the restaurant, you know?"

Feng Jiandong was speechless on the phone. After a long period of trouble, you took your little granddaughter out to play and gave me all the work.

But Feng Jiandong didn't dare to complain, and he could only agree: "Well, I will listen to you."

After finalizing the time and specific matters, Lu Cuiling bid farewell to her wife, hung up the phone, and returned to the restaurant from outside.

At this time, the restaurant was not too busy, and her son also came out. Lu Cuiling hurriedly told her son, daughter-in-law, and father-in-law about the matter.

Hearing that her father-in-law should come over and watch people change the table, Su Ruoxi hesitated and said, "Mom, will this be too hard, Dad? Should we wait for the change, and then take Ruoruo and the others."

After hearing this, Lu Cuiling waved her hand and said, "No, just let your dad guard. We take Ruoruo to play, and they should finish their work when they come back."

Su Ruoxi still hesitated, but she couldn't say anything, she could only look at her husband who was aside.

Seeing his wife’s eyes, Feng Yifan immediately understood his wife’s feelings, and said with a smile: “Well, you guys will go with the children first. I will stay and be responsible for setting up the restaurant with my dad, and then I will rush over with my dad. I'm looking for you."

Hearing what her son said, Lu Cuiling thought it was also a way: "Well, good, then do it, anyway, your dad will definitely drive over."

Su Ruoxi heard this and asked, "But if that's the case, then when the time comes to go on an outing, who will drive the two cars borrowed by Xixi's father?"

Lu Cuiling smiled and said, “Isn’t there still a mother here? I’ll drive one, and let Xixi’s parents drive one separately. We will make an appointment where we will go and let Yifan and his dad arrange the restaurant. , Come and find us."

Su Ruoxi thinks that this method is indeed good, but she is worried that her daughter will not agree: "It is good, but I don't know if Ruoruo will agree?"

Feng Yifan smiled and said: "Don't worry, if you will definitely agree, grandpa and dad are the restaurant for grandpa."

The family was discussing this, and another customer came in and ordered the meal directly: "Boss, let's have a beef noodles, another lo-mei platter, and a braised lion's head."

Feng Yifan immediately agreed: "Okay, please find a place to sit down and come right away."

As Su Kee offers more and more snacks at noon, the types of fried rice and Yifu noodles that can be ordered at noon are also very abundant, which naturally attracts diners from several blocks around.

Even during this time, the income at lunch is much higher than that at dinner.

This made Feng Yifan couldn't help thinking, is it possible to offer fried rice and noodles along with a la carte for dinner?

Originally there were only ten big tables, maybe this idea is not feasible, but if all the big tables are replaced with small square tables. Feng Yifan felt that everything became feasible.

Many domestic restaurants usually separate more professional cooking, fried rice and noodles from each other.

Just like Su Kee, it always provides quick snacks like fried rice and noodles at noon, and then the main business becomes stir-fried dishes in the evening.

But in fact, with the development of the times, people have gradually become accustomed to a diversified combination.

Like foreign restaurants, staple foods and meals are presented alternately.

Feng Yifan felt that perhaps he could also make Suji a restaurant like that.

Come to Su Kee in the evening, you can order and drink all-you-can-drink with friends, and savor the taste of delicate dishes.

You can also come for your fill, ordering only one or two special dishes, paired with staple foods such as fried rice and noodles.

Thinking of such an alternate method, Feng Yifan suddenly felt that his wife's direct request for 20 square tables was indeed a great decision, which could bring more choices to Su Ji.

At this moment, Feng Yifan remembered the private kitchen restaurant he later ran in the memory of his previous life.

At that time, he was very arbitrary. In the special menu every day, he always mixed various dishes and staple foods, and even matched different flavors from all over the world.

Looking back now, it seems that the layout of the private kitchen at that time was very similar to what Su Ji was about to set up.

Back here, Feng Yifan couldn't help thinking in his heart: Maybe this is a kind of destiny.

With this in mind, Feng Yifan has also stepped into the back kitchen, and then began to prepare the various meals previously ordered.

After a few days, Lin Ruifeng gradually adapted to Master's rhythm. There are some things that do not need to be reminded by Master, and they will prepare them in advance.

This also saves Feng Yifan a lot of time, even if he loses his mind a little, it won't be a big problem.

The busyness at noon lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon. Almost a lot of guests have already arrived, and the restaurant here can be regarded as the end of noon business.

Feng Yifan now puts a suspension of business on the door at noon in order to allow everyone to rest in the afternoon.

Since Su Ji has rules, then everything should follow the rules.

what? Are you late at noon? Haven't you eaten it?

It's half past two, and you run to say you want to have lunch, so Su Ji really can't wait.

After closing at noon, Feng Yifan led the apprentice to clean in the back kitchen, while Su Ruoxi and her mother-in-law cleaned and tidied the dining room together in front.

When cleaning the big round table, Su Ruoxi couldn't help but feel a little bit upset, knowing that these big tables would be replaced soon.

These big round tables of Su Ji were purchased during the period of Grandpa Su Ruoxi.

And the whole Su Ji sells fried rice and topping Yifu noodles at noon, and only does a la carte business in the evening, which is also the rule set by Grandpa Su Ruoxi.

After experiencing the glory of the grandfather's period, it gradually began to be flat, and gradually declined in recent years.

Now the husband took over and used a lot of fashion methods to restore the popularity of the restaurant.

Seeing the big table about to be eliminated, Su Ruoxi was really full of emotion.

Su Jinrong was also emotional. When he recalled all the past, he would feel a little guilty in his heart. He felt that his father had done such a brilliant job of uploading his ancestors to the restaurant, but he could not continue his glory.

If you haven't experienced a series of things when your sister came back to ask for an old plaque, perhaps Su Jinrong's temperament would refuse to change.

But now that Su Jinrong recalled everything, he couldn't help feeling that he was too rigid and stubborn to stick to the tradition.

When the tide of the times comes, everything should be changed. Only by slightly following some trends to make changes can it better adapt to the development of the times.

One's own characteristics should be preserved, but one should not blindly follow the old traditions.

When Su Jinrong asked his son-in-law to go abroad to exchange knowledge, he already had the idea to change. Because he gave up too many opportunities to go out back then, he really had high hopes for his son-in-law.

During the five years of separation, Su Jinrong had a lot of doubts about his son-in-law. Especially after the son-in-law has less contact with the family, more often only one postcard will be sent back in a few months.

At that time, Su Jinrong felt that he chose to let his son-in-law go out to see him. Was it a wrong choice?

Is the son-in-law nostalgic for the excitement of the colorful world outside, no longer willing to come back, sinking his heart to run such a small restaurant?

The most annoying and disappointing moment for Su Jinrong was when he waited for five years without waiting for his son-in-law, but first waited for his sister to come to ask for an old plaque.

Maybe even if I think about that moment now, Su Jinrong will still feel that he was really disappointed at that time, and his heart is full of anger.

But everything passed, and the son-in-law finally returned, and he did not live up to Su Jinrong's expectations.

Su Ruoxi's voice sounded: "Mom, now I really can't bear these tables. UU reading www.uukahnshu.com, they really have been working with Su Ji for decades, almost older than my dad."

Su Jinrong nodded and said, "Ten years older than me."

Lu Cuiling saw the reluctance of the father and daughter, thought about it and encouraged: "So, you should think, now that your in-laws are retired, and these tables, which are bigger than in-laws, should also be retired."

When Lu Cuiling said this, Su Jinrong and Su Ruoxi's father and daughter were taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, feeling that what they said was reasonable.

Seeing her father-in-law and daughter-in-law smiled, Lu Cuiling said: "We can keep these big tables. Maybe one day, they will be used again."

Su Ruoxi smiled and nodded: "Well, mom, you are right. Only by doing better can we be worthy of the honorable retirement of these old tables."

The whole family in the restaurant laughed, full of longing for the future.
