Meng Shitong and the others stood in front of the locked door of Su's Shop, and watched Feng Yifan go to the rice wine shop, help old man Su Jinrong out, and then push the old man in a wheelchair to the other side of the ancient street.
He Yaqian muttered, "Chef Feng looks really busy."
Others also echoed.
"It's a bit busy indeed. I have to take care of the family and pick up and drop off my daughter."
“The key is to balance the two restaurants.”
“It really looks very hard.”
Meng Shitong smiled and said, "You guys, don't you realize that Chef Feng actually enjoys it?"
Everyone immediately looked at Meng Shitong.
The latter continued, "For example, today, Chef Feng took us to his two restaurants, introduced the layout and positioning of the western restaurant, and took us to visit the renovated Su Ji. Do you think Chef Feng is unhappy at all? I think he enjoys his current life very much."
Everyone thought about it seriously for a moment and felt that what Meng Shitong said made a lot of sense.
Feng Yifan is willing to take people to visit two restaurants and spend the afternoon with his father-in-law on the ancient street, which shows that he likes this kind of lifestyle very much.
Looking back at his expression when he introduced the two restaurants, it is not difficult to see that he is full of confidence in the operation of the two restaurants.
Meng Shitong smiled and said: "When you can do what you like, even if it is hard, you won't feel any pain. Instead, the hard process is a kind of pleasure."
As a few people were talking, some more people came to Su Ji's door and were disappointed to see that Su Ji was not open.
"Oh, Su Ji hasn't opened yet?"
"Yeah, why hasn't it opened yet?"
"This street is already open to traffic, why isn't Su Ji open yet?"
"I came all the way here just to taste Su Ji's dishes."
"Now, I'm afraid I can only go next door to eat a bowl of noodles."
After hearing the last person's words, the people gathered in front of Su Ji's door immediately turned their heads to look at the shop next door. It was the Lin family's breakfast shop in the past, but now it is a shop selling fried rice and noodles.
Ah Fei looked at it and said, "Sister Meng, how about we go eat a bowl too, and then go back?"
He Yaqian said: "Okay, I haven't eaten fried rice and noodles for a long time."
Jasmine asked curiously, "Sister He, didn't we just come here to eat yesterday?"
He Yaqian said seriously, "Of course we can never get enough of the fried rice and noodles on this ancient street. Besides, I heard that there are more kinds of toppings for the noodles when we return to the shop from the small market. We can order some different toppings to try today."
After hearing what He Yaqian said, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Thinking of the various toppings that were unique to Su Ji, it really makes people drool.
Meng Shitong looked at the long queue next door and couldn't help but ask, "Should we go and queue now? Or should we wait here for Chef Feng to bring our daughter back?"
He Yaqian asked curiously: "Sister Meng, why do we have to wait for Chef Feng to come back?"
Ah Fei immediately thought of it, and looked at Meng Shitong and said, "Sister Meng, do you mean that when Chef Feng comes back to pick up his daughter, we can taste Chef Feng's cooking?"
Meng Shitong smiled and said, "I didn't say that, but maybe we will have that opportunity."
He Yaqian immediately said, "Then let's wait for Chef Feng to pick Ruoruo up."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and laughed.
Everyone had obviously decided to wait together for Chef Feng to come back.
At this time, Feng Yifan pushed his father-in-law to the other end of the ancient street. When passing by Liu Wanhua and Shen Qingluo's shops, he saw that the two shops were bustling with people, so he did not disturb them.
Su Jinrong sighed: "It seems that everyone's business is good after the restoration of the ancient street."
Feng Yifan nodded and said, "That's for sure. When Meng Shitong and the others release their video, there will be more people visiting the ancient street, and everyone's business will be better."
Su Jinrong said, "Do you also want to speed up the process? Today, Fan Chaodong and Wang Cuifeng have been asking when you will open. And those people who came to the ancient street to see you, don't they all want to see when you will open?"
Feng Yifan said helplessly: "Dad, we can't rush this matter. There are still many things that have not been done."
Su Jinrong then asked, "Do you think that if you are ready, Su Kee and your western restaurant will definitely become a hit?"
Feng Yifan answered confidently: "Definitely."
Hearing his son-in-law's words, Su Jinrong could clearly feel his son-in-law's confidence, and he nodded: "Well, then you guys should prepare well."
At this point, Su Jinrong asked curiously, "By the way, where are Jiahui, Chen Xu, and Luo Yu? I haven't seen them in the past few days?"
Feng Yifan answered truthfully: "Didn't they go to buy tableware?"
Su Jinrong couldn't help but laugh and said, "You're really good. You found someone here, but now you've just left the procurement work to him."
Feng Yifan said helplessly: "I can't help it. I still have to take care of my daughter."
Without waiting for his father-in-law to speak, he added, "Besides, Senior Sister, Chen Xu, and Luo Yu took the initiative to ask to go. Especially Chen Xu and Luo Yu, they have higher requirements for tableware, so let them choose for themselves."
Su Jinrong nodded again, and then asked, "By the way, where is the set of four-season tableware?"
Feng Yifan immediately replied: "Dad, don't worry, I told Senior Sister specifically."
Only then did Su Jinrong finally feel relieved.
"Leave it to Jiahui, then you can rest assured."
The father-in-law and son-in-law chatted as they came to the gate of Feng Ruoruo's kindergarten.
At this time, the children in the small class who had just entered the kindergarten today had already finished school early and had all been picked up by their families.
This is somewhat similar to the arrangement in primary schools. Most primary schools now let first graders leave school earlier.
On the one hand, this is to give children a period of adaptation, and on the other hand, it is to avoid congestion caused by leaving school with older grades.
Kindergartens also have similar arrangements, and the classes of newly admitted children will be dismissed first.
This will avoid conflicts with older children.
Feng Yifan and his father-in-law waited for a while in front of the kindergarten gate. When the door opened, they entered the kindergarten with other parents and walked towards Feng Ruoruo's class.
Before I reached the classroom door, I could already hear Feng Ruoruo's voice from afar.
"Our restaurant hasn't opened yet. Don't worry. My dad said we can't open until the menu is ready. You should wait patiently."
Apparently, even the kindergarten children are looking forward to the opening of Su Ji.
So when Feng Ruoruo was in kindergarten, she was also asked this question by many other children.
Then she patiently gave answers again and again.
Now that kindergarten is over, the little girl loudly announces it to all the other children.
Teacher Fang listened and watched with a smile on her face. She thought that Feng Ruoruo was a very interesting girl. And when she saw the children in the kindergarten, she forgot some of her worries.
When Feng Yifan slowed down, someone patted him from behind.
When I turned around, I saw that Yang Zhiyi and Chen Yaofei's grandparents had also arrived.
Yang Zhiyi greeted Su Jinrong first, and then said to Feng Yifan, "Old Feng, after picking up the children, we will also send them to Teacher Guo's dance class."
Feng Yifan was startled: "Is Teacher Guo's class going to start today?"
Yang Zhiyi saw Feng Yifan's surprised expression and said with a smile: "It seems that you have also forgotten about the dance class?"
Chen Shoulin laughed and said, "Hahaha, we old couple forgot about it too."
Yang Zhiyi said: "Luckily, Xixi's mother called me on my way here to tell me."
The parents of the three families had all forgotten about the dance class. The only one who remembered was Li Feier, so she quickly called Yang Zhiyi and asked him to remind the other two families.
Feng Yifan then asked: "Is the dance class far from here?"
Yang Zhiyi replied: "Not far. I checked the map on the way here. Teacher Guo's class is actually in Feifei's neighborhood."
Li Xiuchun was a little surprised: "Ah? In our neighborhood?"
Chen Shoulin quickly remembered: "Oh, yes, there is an activity building in our community with many classrooms. I always thought it was a building for the elderly activity center, but it seems not to be. There are many painting classes, music classes and dance classes for children there."
Yang Zhiyi said: "Yes, Teacher Guo's class is also there."
Su Jinrong said: "That's good, it's not too far."
Li Xiuchun said, "That's great. After class, the three little darlings can come to our house to rest. Grandpa Feifei and I can also take care of them. If Ruoruo's father is busy, we can help take care of Ruoruo and send her home after class."
Feng Yifan quickly said, "Isn't that too much trouble for you two elders?"
Chen Shoulin smiled and responded: "Yifan, why are you being so polite to us? Our Feifei calls you Dad Feng, and we are also a family, so there is no need to be polite."
Yang Zhiyi took the opportunity to say, "Yes, that's good. If I have something to do, I will ask uncle and aunt to help take care of Xixi."
Li Xiuchun said: "No problem, the three little babies are good friends, we will definitely help take care of them."
Su Jinrong said: "Actually, I don't have anything to do. I can stay there and accompany the children."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Dad, if you want to stay there, then stay there. When the get out of class is over, I will pick you and Ruoruo up."
While the three families were chatting, the class had already ended and many children had been picked up by their parents.
When the children went out and saw Feng Yifan, they immediately surrounded him and asked him questions.
"Uncle Feng, why haven't you opened your business yet?"
"Uncle Feng, you didn't bring us any snacks today."
"Uncle Feng, when can we have your snacks?"
"Uncle Feng, when can we go to your restaurant for dinner?"
…
Facing the questions from the children, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Our restaurant still needs some time to prepare. Uncle Feng promises that it will be open soon and will be open to everyone again. But if you want to eat fried rice and noodles, you can go today. Your Uncle Xiaolin and Uncle Xiaoma are cooking next door."
For the children in Feng Ruoruo's class in kindergarten, they are no strangers to Uncle Xiaolin and Uncle Xiaoma.
Because during the previous holidays, many children went to the stalls in the small market to eat.
When the parents heard that Lin Ruifeng and Ma Xiaolong were still in business, they all asked curiously where they were.
"Chef Feng, the small market seems to have been closed down. Where are you doing business now?"
"Yes, yes, where are your two apprentices doing business?"
"Is it on the ancient street?"
Feng Yifan quickly replied, "Yes, we are doing business on the ancient street. Actually, it is still the same place as before. Wasn't there a breakfast shop next to Su Ji? Now the breakfast shop is not in business for the time being. Xiaolin and Xiaoma are selling fried rice, noodles and wontons in the shop."
After hearing this answer, the parents all understood and said they would take their children to eat there in the evening.
When Feng Yifan was surrounded by children and parents, Yang Zhiyi had already helped push Su Jinrong, and went into the children's class with Chen Shoulin and the elderly couple Li Xiuchun.
Feng Ruoruo saw her grandfather coming but didn't see her father, and the little girl was suddenly a little surprised.
"Hey, Grandpa, why are you here alone? Why isn't Dad here?"
Yang Zhiyi teased the little girl deliberately and said, "That's right, your father is too busy and has no time to come, so let Uncle Yang push your grandfather to pick you up."
Feng Ruoruo pouted and suddenly became unhappy.
"Dad, you idiot, why didn't you come to pick me up?"
Seeing his granddaughter's angry look, Su Jinrong immediately said cheerfully, "You little girl are so stupid. Do you really believe that your uncle Yang will go home to pick up grandpa? If your father doesn't come, how can grandpa come to pick you up? And you are still complaining about your father here."
After listening to her grandfather's words, Feng Ruoruo looked at Yang Zhiyi, and then at Chen Yaofei's grandparents.
Seeing everyone’s smiles, the little girl immediately realized that she had been cheated.
"Ah, Uncle Yang, how could you lie to a child?"
Yang Xiaoxi stood up decisively to defend her good friend: "Dad, you can't lie to children. Tell me quickly, where did you hide Father Feng?"
Yang Zhiyi was instantly amused by his daughter's question: "Your father Feng is such a big man, how can I hide him?"
Yang Xiaoxi and Feng Ruoruo refused to give in and together denounced and made trouble with Yang Zhiyi, leaving Yang Zhiyi helpless.
Chen Yaofei was smarter. She looked outside the classroom and said, "Ruoruo, Xixi, come and have a look. Father Feng is outside. He is surrounded by other children and uncles and aunts."
Feng Ruoruo and Yang Xiaoxi also looked outside and saw the tall Father Feng standing outside the door.
Feng Ruoruo quickly waved her hands and shouted, "Dad, Dad, please come in and pick me up."
Hearing his daughter's call, Feng Yifan said goodbye to other children and parents, pushed through the crowd surrounding him, strode quickly into the classroom, and picked up his daughter who was coming towards him.
