The story of a cook

Chapter 399 Improper Chef

Manager Jiang was the manager of Xishan Hotel in Fuxin, and Zhang Tao was the head chef there. The two fell in love at first sight.At that time, Manager Jiang was divorced and single, and the two began to live in Manager Jiang's house after they got married.Since Manager Jiang is a divorced person and older than Zhang Tao, he cherishes this relationship very much and treats Zhang Tao very well.

The two have been together for more than two years, and Manager Jiang has not been pregnant. If she becomes pregnant, the two may get married.Manager Jiang was not pregnant and did not go to the hospital for an examination, and Zhang Tao did not have an examination. They thought that there was nothing wrong with their health, and they might have successfully avoided the chance of conception.Later, Zhang Tao met a more beautiful waiter. The waiter was young and prettier than Manager Jiang.Manager Jiang had a fight with Zhang Tao after he found out, and told Zhang Tao that if he didn't talk to the waiter, he could forgive him, and he would pretend that nothing happened, and the two of them were still the same as before.But Zhang Tao didn't change his mind, he abandoned Manager Jiang, and stayed and flew with the waiter.

Manager Jiang was hit hard. He thought that she, a divorced woman, had found love again in Zhang Tao's place. After being driven out from Fuxin, I also got sick.When I was sick, I went to the hospital to check whether I could not conceive, and it turned out that everything was normal.She is normal, and she has not been pregnant with Zhang Tao for two years, so the problem should be Zhang Tao.

"It's useless to get married, he won't have children, he's just sick." Manager Jiang said bitterly.

"Maybe it has been cured over the years." I said.

"Cure? I can't see it. You don't know. We thought he was sick when we were together. At that time, I asked him to go to the hospital. He said there was something wrong with him being so young." Manager Jiang continued: " At that time, I foolishly bought beef and mutton meat for him, but I didn’t get it back, and the meat went to other people’s arms.”

Hey, it's a bit embarrassing.

The world is full of infatuated women and heartless people.

I said, "It seems that you have a deep affection for him."

She said: "What's the use of my deep affection, the main reason is that I am older than him, six years older than him."

"Not anymore, it's still a matter of his character, it's a matter of character." I said.

"He hurt me deeply, and now I don't trust men anymore."

"There are still many good people in the world, not all of them are like that."

Many people are afraid of well ropes after being bitten by a snake for ten years. Feelings are too torturous.So people can play with anything, but don't play with emotions, you will be condemned by your conscience.

I chatted a lot with Manager Jiang, and even Li Jianhan.Zhang Tao brought Li Jianhan to Fuxin. Li Jianhan was fine when he first came, and he was a very motivated young man.After working for a year, I got acquainted here and met a lot of people. I always hang out with others when I have nothing to do. I always go to karaoke bars and massage parlors. I learned how to find girls.

"That Li Jianhan is a flirt. After work, he will go out to find Miss and live with her." Manager Jiang said.

"He is also bold, not afraid of being caught." I said.

"What are you afraid of? Otherwise, if there is no money at all, the family will starve to death." Manager Jiang said.

"Yes." I said.

"This place is dying now, there are no matchmakers in the ground, and too many people have been laid off, so it's fine if you can make money." She said, "As long as it's not too much."

"Is it still like this?" I asked.

"It's not what."

"This is also helpless, forced by life." I said.

Manager Jiang said: "It's also fucked up. Old men can't make big money at home and don't like to make small money. When you go out, you still try your best to pretend, thinking that you are something wrong, but in fact you are nothing. Their pockets are cleaner than their faces, and some of them live on the little money earned by old ladies."

I said, "Anyone with hands and feet will be paid for doing anything, so people can't get used to it."

The two chatted very speculatively and drank a little too much. When they came out, it was almost twelve o'clock. Manager Jiang went home directly, and I went back to the dormitory.

The boss came back four days later, but he still couldn't find the woman, and he was a little depressed.After coming back, he talked to Chen Gang first, and called me over after talking with Chen Gang.

The boss said straight to the point: "Master Tan, I heard that there was a fight with someone here, so it's okay."

I said, "It's nothing."

The boss said: "I'm not going to be the head chef anymore. I talked to Chen Gang just now and I want him to be the head chef. He doesn't want to be the head chef. Tell me you are suitable. How about you come to be the head chef of our family?"

I said: "The most suitable candidate for the head chef of our family is Chen Gang. He doesn't want to talk to him anymore."

"He's wrong, if he's right, what's the point?" the boss said.

"Actually, you can ask the head chef to continue to be in charge. It's not a big deal. Last time he did it a bit too much, but he's not bad. There's nothing wrong with him except his petty mind." I said, "Our head chef It’s okay, there’s nothing wrong with it, everyone in the kitchen does their own work, don’t need to worry about it, Chen Gang can take care of everything, to put it bluntly, the head chef is doing work every day, organizing everyone to clean up, and nothing else It's nothing, let him continue."

"You can't ask him to do it, and make social people fight in the kitchen. What's wrong with the kitchen, and treat yourself as a gangster?" The boss said angrily.

"The influence is a bit bad, but now few people in the kitchen are looking at him, they are all looking at Chen Gang, and there is nothing wrong with Chen Gang. Tell him to continue working, and now he knows that he is wrong, and the whole thing is not good." I said, and continued: "If you don't need it, he has to find a chef. Now the guests are used to the seafood he cooks, so don't change it if you can. You know that you have been a chef before. It's not a bad thing to change the chef. If you don’t change it, don’t change it. You can talk to him later and give him another chance. It’s not easy to find a job now. If he comes to our house, he probably won’t be able to find a job years ago, and he has to support his family.”

The boss thought for a while and said, "I chatted with him, but I didn't care much about it during this time, I'm used to his stink."

If you don't want to develop in Fuxin, you don't need to be a chef.The best candidate for the head chef is Chen Gang, and I can't be him if he isn't.It’s good not to be a full-time head chef and cook. There’s nothing to do in the kitchen. After cooking, clean up and get your work to stand upright. It’s better not to worry about anything.

Back in the kitchen, Chen Gang was chatting with Zhao Gang. When he saw me coming back, Chen Gang asked, "How was the talk?"

I said, "It's okay, nothing to talk about."

He said, "It looks like you don't want to do it."

I said: "How can I catch up with a steady stir-fry? It's so comfortable."

He smiled and said, "Yes, it's fine to cook vegetables steadily, and our family is fine."

I said, "Yes." Then I asked him, "How is your brother doing in Binhai?"

"It's not bad. I heard from my sister-in-law that it's good. The salary is higher than this." He said.

"Then your brother should be good at cooking, but if you can't cook, you can't do it there." I said.

He said: "My brother's cooking is okay." Then he asked me: "Old Tan, why don't you work there?"

"The body is not good, I can't adapt to the weather there, it's too humid." I said.

"Is that great?" he asked.

"Different people." I said, "Maybe my physique is not good enough and I can't adapt to it. Anyone else can do it." I said.

"Your physique is not good enough? One person singled out four." He joked.

I said, "Don't talk about it, it's embarrassing, and I'll get you beaten up."

He asked again: "What's wrong? Really don't want to be a chef?"

I said, "No, I won't be able to stay here for long, and I'll quit after Chinese New Year, and I have to go back to the provincial capital."

He said: "We are open for Chinese New Year, and there is no holiday. If you go back, you have to go back after the Chinese New Year."

I said, "Then get busy with the Chinese New Year and go back after the Chinese New Year."

At this time Zhao Gang said: "I can't, I have to go home for the New Year. This year my daughter-in-law will go to my house for the New Year, so I have to go back."

I said: "It's okay, when you go home to celebrate the New Year, I'll be here to watch, and I can get busy."

"I'll be back after the second year of junior high school." Zhao Gang said.

After chatting a few more words with the guests, I started cooking on the stove.

The chef didn't come back when the dishes were being fried, but he came back after 15 minutes of cooking.Judging by the look on his face, he should be very happy, because he is happy to keep his job.It is estimated that through this time, he can learn to be a man.

Be tolerant to diversity, tolerance is a virtue.

To be a human being doesn't mean to have a heart like the sea, at least you have to be more open and able to accommodate something.If you are narrow-minded, you can't tolerate anything, and naturally you can't get anything, and you are doomed to fail.

There is no place for people, no place for trees to hide.

Being a person requires a pattern, and it is difficult to succeed without even a pattern.Especially old men, you can't be too small-minded, too small-minded can't make a big climate.

When I got off work at night, Chen Gang asked me to go out for a drink, told him not to drink, and was going to go back to sleep.He said that if you can drink with a woman, you can't drink with him?I laughed, knowing that he was talking about drinking with Manager Jiang.

"Manager Jiang is going too. Let's go there first. She will be there later." Chen Gang said.

"What day is it today? Why do you want to drink?" I asked.

He laughed, and then said: "The chef treats guests, this time I understand."

I said, "Really, that wine must be drunk, it tastes cheap."

It is estimated that the head chef was trained by the boss, and the boss also told him that Chen Gang and I were not head chefs. He felt that he owed me and Chen Gang and wanted to invite us to drink.It's a good thing for someone to invite you to drink, let alone the head chef invites you, you have to give this face.

The head chef arrived first and ordered the dishes.Not long after Chen Gang and I arrived, Manager Jiang also arrived, and the four of us sat down to drink.

The head chef raised his wine glass to toast, and said some kind words, thanking Chen Gang and me for giving him face, thanking us for telling the boss that he would continue to be the head chef, etc. In short, he was very grateful and sincere, so Just had a drink.

Manager Jiang put down his wine glass and said to the head chef: "You really have to thank Chen Gang and Master Tan. I know about this today. The boss told me that they were the two who protected you in front of the boss. Otherwise, you will be laid off."

"I know, I know," said the head chef.

"We're all brothers, and we've been cooperating very well. We can't be laid off because of such a trivial matter. Lao Tan and I are not that kind of people." Chen Gang said.

"Lao Chen and Lao Tan are interesting enough, we've made a deal with these buddies," said the head chef.

I said: "You and Lao Chen get along very well. Both of you are from the local area. You are a nice old man and have a lot of connections. You both work in this line of work. In the future, you will have a lookout for each other. Don't talk about anything else. When there is no work to do It's good to introduce each other. I don't have to worry about it. I'm just a passer-by. I won't stay with us for long. When the time comes, I'll quit and go back to the provincial capital. When you have the opportunity to go to the provincial capital, you must find me. I warmly welcome you Treat."

Manager Jiang said: "I promise to go to the provincial capital. Don't answer the phone when I find you."

I said: "Don't worry, I won't. Manager Jiang is a distinguished guest when he goes, and he must be treated well."

Manager Jiang said: "Don't call me Manager Jiang all the time. It sounds awkward. I'm older than you. Call me Sister Jiang. They both call me Sister Jiang."

I said, "Okay, don't call the manager Sister Jiang."

Chen Gang said: "Pay attention to Old Tan, Sister Jiang called you sister for a purpose."

"What's the purpose of calling sister?" Sister Jiang said to Chen Gang, "Only you can fix things."

"Isn't there that sentence, let you call sister first, then old sister, and then call me daughter-in-law." Chen Gang laughed after finishing speaking.

I smiled and said, "No, Sister Jiang is not like that."

"Isn't she that kind of person?" Chen Gang said: "You still don't know Fuxin women, Fuxin women are taking the initiative, especially Sister Jiang, the young man often asked her to take it down."

Sister Jiang was not angry either, and said to Chen Gang: "You wait for Chen Gang, for your wife to come. I will tell your daughter-in-law all the nonsense about you and the waiter, and see how your daughter-in-law will deal with you when she comes home."

Chen Gang said: "Tell me, don't be afraid, my daughter-in-law already knew about that, and she doesn't care about me at all."

"Just blow it up, go out and see what is flying in the sky." Sister Jiang said.

"What? My thirteen brothers-in-law, who else is there besides my brother-in-law?"

I didn't expect Chen Gang to be quite humorous, I really didn't see it.
