Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 487 Who Is My Master?
While speaking, he also turned on the switch of the duck, and then the little duck began to writhe on the table following the music.

It looked a little funny.

Yueyue was immediately attracted by this Kodak, staring at this little toy intently.

Others may not know it, but Chen Nian knows that this gadget is still quite popular.

Of course, Chen Nian doesn't have any special feelings for Kodak Duck, it's almost the same if it's roast duck.

And after Xiao Jing gave Yueyue the toy of the Kodak Duck, he reached out and touched Yueyue's furry head, it was silky smooth, soft and smooth, and it felt extremely comfortable.

But Wen Hongxia's instinctive first reaction after seeing this was that she couldn't accept it.

"Oh, let's take this back. Yueyue is still young, so it won't be good if she accidentally breaks it." Although she didn't think this thing was too expensive, in her opinion, it was a girl who could make noise and dance. Small plastic toys.

But no matter whether something is expensive or cheap, you can't accept it at will.

"It's okay, this is my little gift for Yueyue, just leave it alone, Auntie." Xiao Jing said indifferently.

Yueyue is still giggling and giggling as she looks at the dancing Kodak.

Seeing this, Wen Hongxia also sighed: "Oh, thank you brother Yueyue soon."

After hearing this, the little guy raised his head and said sweetly, "Thank you brother."

As soon as Xiao Jing heard these words, he felt his heart was about to melt.

"Yueyue, do you remember your brother's name now?" Xiao Jing asked again.

But Yueyue lowered her head and thought about it, and after a few seconds, she tentatively said, "Duck duck?"

As soon as this innocent and childish words came out, everyone present burst into laughter.

But Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment, and then quickly nodded: "Yes, yes, it is Yaya. From now on, you can call me Brother Yaya."

"Hehehe, Yaya." Yueyue pointed to Koda Ya on the table and then pointed to Xiao Jing, as if she had discovered some new continent, she clapped her hands and began to laugh soon.

Xiao Jing also took this opportunity to reach out to hug Yueyue.

Yueyue, who got the new gift, was extremely happy at the moment, and she didn't refuse, she also stretched out her hand towards Xiao Jing, and soon Xiao Jing hugged Yueyue.

The kitchen was still cooking, while Xiao Jing was walking around the restaurant with Yueyue in his arms. When he came to a painting hanging on the wall, he couldn't help but stop.

He specially sent this painting to Chen Nian some time ago, and he also took a video at that time, and the purpose of sending this painting was also to thank Chen Nian, because his career as a grandma started at Honghong Restaurant.

All the people in the Honghong Hotel are drawn on it.

"Yueyue, do you know who the person above is?" Xiao Jing asked, pointing to the painting.

"Mom!" Soon Yueyue pointed to Wen Hongxia in the painting and said.

"Niannian!" Yueyue pointed to the old year.

"Auntie." Yueyue once again moved her little finger to point at Feng Honghong.

Then Yueyue looked at other people, her eyes full of doubts, she looked at the painting for a while, and then at the kitchen for a while, trying to find some similarities, but she couldn't come up with it in the end.

"There's Yueyue on it, can you find it?" Xiao Jing asked while hugging Yueyue.

When Yueyue heard this, she began to search hard on the painting, but it seemed that she couldn't find herself.

"No." Yueyue shook her head.

"Yes." Xiao Jing hinted that Yueyue could look for it more carefully.

"No." Yueyue shook her head again.

Then Xiao Jing reached out and pointed out Yueyue who was playing hide-and-seek under the table, after Yueyue saw herself.

"Wow!"

She covered her mouth in joy, then shyly lay on Xiao Jing's shoulder, turning her head away, like a little girl who was seen posing for a photo of herself.

"Ma Po Tofu is ready!" At this moment Feng Honghong came out of the kitchen carrying Mapo Tofu.

Xiao Jing could only put down Yueyue reluctantly: "Yueyue goes back to play first, brother has to eat first."

"Bye!" Yueyue said while shaking her little hand.

Xiao Jing returned to the dinner table, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would have a daughter in the future. This is too cute. Human cubs are so cute that they almost want to kiss him to death.

But such thoughts quickly dissipated as he put the mapo tofu in his mouth.

This mapo tofu is like a girl who is a bit savage and willful, so that people have no time to care about other things.

From time to time at the counter, there will be the sound of built-in music from Kodak.

But as the number of people in the restaurant increased and all the tables were filled, the noisy sound quickly drowned them out, and the only one who could hear the sound was Yueyue who had nothing to do.

It didn't take long for Xiao Jing to finish his meal. As before, he not only finished eating the tofu and meat, but even the soup. He ordered another bowl of rice to mix it with and ate it.

"Boss, another pinch of sour plum soup!" After eating, Xiao Jing ordered another large cup of sour plum soup.

"Didn't you finish eating?" Feng Honghong asked curiously.

"I finished eating, but I still want to take it home to drink. When I came today, I carried a big cup on my back." After hearing this, Feng Honghong couldn't help but look at the big cup that Xiao Jing said.

"Big belly cup? You also grabbed it? This is actually quite easy to grab. I snatched eight or nine of them in the live broadcast room a few days ago. I plan to give each of them one when I come back." Feng Honghong was talking about this. And a little proud.

As a result, when Xiao Jing heard this, his face suddenly showed a puzzled look: "The live broadcast room is robbed? How much is it? Auntie, why do you want to rob so much?"

"A penny." Feng Honghong said as a matter of course.

"It's only a penny? Then why did it cost twenty when I bought it!"

Feng Honghong also expressed a little surprise when she heard this: "Those anchors put tens of thousands of them on the shelves every day. If you pay a little attention, you can grab them for a penny. You didn't say it earlier, if you said it earlier You don’t need to buy it, I’ll just give you one when my cup comes back.”

"Blood loss."

Finally, Xiao Jing poured the sour plum soup from the store into his cup, and left with a sigh.

But Chen Nian noticed in the kitchen that Xiao Jing's camera was always off.

I can't help but sigh in my heart that the material of the video blogger is really easy to find, and it should have a good program effect if I cut the segment just now.

It's just that things like cups are handed out in the live broadcast room. Old Nian thinks that this should be the anchors using such benefits to attract traffic.

No matter how many cups are given away, as long as one person out of ten buys something, they can earn the money back.

After the launch of the broadcast, they themselves have to go to the platform to buy exposure and traffic. Anyway, money is spent everywhere, and giving small gifts can also increase user stickiness.

But for ordinary users like my mother, buying a cup for a penny is indeed equivalent to picking it up cheaply. Even if you buy something in the other party’s live broadcast room, the price is usually cheaper than buying it directly on the platform. Or go to the store to buy it for cheaper.

As for the cost of time... How much is a middle-aged woman's leisure time worth?

Just like that, when the business hours at noon were about to end, Shen Qing came to the store.

Shen Qing is a regular customer in the store, and she is also a member of the small group, so as soon as she entered the door, Feng Honghong warmly greeted him and asked him what he wanted to eat.

"Auntie, I don't eat today. I came here today to book a banquet. After a while, I plan to take the department out for dinner. Originally, I wanted to take them to the buffet, but they all said they wanted to come here to eat. So I came here to order food first."

Shen Qing originally planned to order another table of Huaiyang cuisine as before, with some special dishes from other places in the shop.

But when Feng Honghong took out the new banquet menu, Shen Qing was stunned.

"Is there a new dish in the store?"

"Yes, it was just posted today, and you are the first customer to see it."

The smile on Shen Qing's face gradually turned into surprise, because the dishes above are completely new cuisines!

Although there were many cuisines in Honghong Restaurant before, there was never Shandong cuisine, but this time it was a whole banquet!

Thinking of this, Shen Qing couldn't help but looked up at the kitchen, there were still those people, and no new chefs were invited, which meant that these dishes would probably still be made in the past.

She couldn't figure out how Chen Nian learned it.

Obviously, the store is so busy with work during the daytime, and he has to rest after the business hours are over, and some time ago he also participated in the video shooting of Miao Miao Wu.

I heard from others that Chen Nian practiced cooking new dishes from ten o'clock every night until around twelve o'clock.

Especially the noodle dishes such as Xiaolongbao and noodles have just been launched some time ago.

As a result, more than a dozen Shandong dishes are brought out now?

Not to mention that many of the dishes look like dishes that are complicated and difficult to make.

"How did this person's brain grow!" If possible, Shen Qing really wanted to open Chen Nian's brain to see how it grew.

Although she doesn't know much about cooking, she also knows that some classic dishes are famous for a reason.

But when the new dishes came out, she was the first to encounter them, so she couldn't help but order them.

After asking Feng Honghong, she was told that it would be fine to mix these dishes together.

After much deliberation, Shen Qing finally ordered a total of ten dishes on the Lu cuisine menu, and the remaining six dishes were dishes from other cuisines.

"Is it ready?"

"It's ready."

Feng Honghong nodded, and then took out a calendar: "You can choose the time, and you can choose anything that is not circled on it."

Shen Qing took it over and took a look, and saw that one day after a week was still free, and the rest of the time was basically full. If you didn't choose this day, you would have to wait half a month later.

"Then I'll be fine a week later, on the 24th."

"Okay, then it will be on the 24th, but you have to pay a part of the deposit for the banquet, because we have to buy the things first, and some of the ingredients you ordered are also expensive, and if you don't eat them at that time, the deposit is average It is non-refundable.

But we are all acquaintances. If there is something to do that day, just let us know two or three days in advance, and I can refund you the money. "

Shen Qing nodded: "Don't worry, Auntie, our company has just finished a project during this period, and we don't have anything particularly busy in the future, so we can come to eat, and it's okay even if we can't come, I will It would be nice to pass this on to a friend.

In short, I won't let you lose money. Since my aunt treats me as one of my own, I certainly can't let you down. "

Feng Honghong saw that something was going to happen, and Shen Qing, who was beautiful and capable, couldn't help but sighed: "Oh, girl, it would be great if my son could find a girl as outstanding as you in the future."

If other girls heard this, they might blush a little, but Shen Qing didn't know it at all. After so many years in the mall, what hadn't she heard?
"Auntie, what you said is too much. The excellence of the old age is no worse than mine. You see, I still work for others, and the money I earn in a month is not as much as that of the old age. Besides, I feel that Chen Nian will definitely be able to find a very good girl." Shen Qing said.

Because she always felt that Chen Nian had an unusual relationship with Miao Miaowu and An Hongdou in the group, anyway, it was either An Hongdou or Miao Miaowu.

But if she looked at it comprehensively, she still felt that An Hongdou was more likely.

"Really? Do you know something? This kid has grown up now, and he won't tell me anything." Feng Honghong seemed to smell something from this, and asked Shen Qing quickly.

When she asked, she looked back cautiously, worried that her son would hear it.

"I don't know, I just feel like this personally." Shen Qing often had to negotiate with clients, so he naturally knew what to say and what not to say, even if he was telling nonsense with his eyes open, he could still behave in a tight-fitting manner.

"Oh, then if you know something, you can tell me. Chen Nian doesn't care about this kind of thing every day, but I am almost dying of anxiety." Feng Honghong sighed while talking.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'm on your side."

"That's good, that's good." Feng Honghong's face showed a look of relief.

After scanning the QR code for the deposit, Shen Qing left.

"Mom, did Shen Qing come to order a banquet just now? I seem to have seen you give her the menu for the banquet."

"Well, she ordered a table and said it was a company dinner."

"Okay, when you're done, go back and put the order on the table, and I'll prepare it then."

"I put it there for you a long time ago, you can see for yourself." After Feng Honghong finished speaking, she went out to continue greeting guests.

After a while, all the guests left. Wen Hongxia and Feng Honghong cleaned up the tables outside. After the kitchen was cleaned up, the people in the kitchen stretched their waists one by one, drinking water.

Others went out to get some air.

"Brother Xie, how is your cooking?" He Hai asked curiously standing at the entrance of the restaurant.

"It's hard to say, it's about [-] to [-]%. Some dishes can be mastered, but some dishes are still not good. Master's knife skills are too good. If you talk about heat and seasoning, I have no problem with these, but it's just a knife. Kungfu is either a talent, or a lot of practice." Xie Yu said.

When he was talking, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Chen Nian in the restaurant: "But our master belongs to the type who is talented and hardworking."

After hearing this, He Hai nodded in agreement first, and then said with desperation: "However, the progress on my side is very fast, and I can basically do those noodles. Wait a day or two." I’m going to tell Master the next day that I can raise my salary next month.”

"Then you are pretty good. You can learn so many real skills at such a young age. When I was as young as you, I was still doing odd jobs for others." Xie Yu looked at He Hai enviously.

He is four years older than He Hai, and sometimes he looks at He Hai as if he saw himself a few years ago, full of drive and longing for the future.

Originally, Xie Yu didn't think that much before coming to the Honghong Hotel. He has been working in the industry for so long, and he has almost lost his enthusiasm.

After all, he can’t go to a big restaurant like him, and it’s not challenging to go to a small restaurant. The food is almost ready every day, and the guests don’t say anything.

That is to say, after arriving at Honghong Hotel and seeing Chen Nian, I felt that I still had a lot to learn.

He Hai heard Xie Yu's praise, and quickly waved his hands: "Brother Xie, you can't say that. In fact, I can only rely on rote memorization now. Naturally, I learned it, but Master told me before that the proportion of water surface and salt in summer and winter, when it rains and when it doesn’t rain, is different, and I still don’t understand this.”

Speaking of this, Qiao Zhaomei couldn't help but also walked out: "You two handsome boys, what are you talking about?"

"We are saying that Master is amazing."

Speaking of this topic, Qiao Zhaomei couldn't help but get excited: "That's right, the boss has cooked Cantonese food before, and it's exactly the same as ours when I eat it. It's the first time I've encountered Cantonese food since I came here. In this situation, of course, those high-end restaurants will definitely hire Guangdong masters, but the price will have to go up.

And every time I hear the boss say that some of these dishes are learned by himself, and some bosses say that he also learned from his master. Cantonese cuisine has a master of Cantonese cuisine, Sichuan cuisine has a master of Sichuan cuisine, and noodles are also made. master. "

When He Hai heard this, his eyes became sharp: "I have said so much, but who is our master?"

"How about we ask?" Xie Yu suggested.

He Hai and Qiao Zhaomei nodded, and then they went back to find Chen Nian: "Master, didn't you say that you learned many dishes from Master? Speaking of which, we haven't known who our Master is for so long."

When Chen Nian heard this, he looked at the people and didn't know what to say for a while. Could it be that my master is actually another projection of you in the dream world created by the recipe?
And the reason why you can come to my shop is also guided by some hidden fate?

In fact, when it comes to seniority, you are my master and I am your apprentice?

Of course, I can't say this myself, and even if I say it, no one will believe it.
