The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 448

Liu Yang's words attracted the attention of several other people, and they were also puzzled. It is true that Lao Tan has not spoken in the management group for a long time, and he usually talks about it every day.

Aqiao's management group includes the executive president, regional manager, executive chef, shop managers and head chefs of each store. Lao Tan is in it, but Yanhua, Zhang Yu, and Yanzi are not.

"You must be busy with other things." Xiaofeng said.

"What can he be busy with now?" Liu Yang asked.

"Are you asking me?" Xiaofeng said, "Your master has a lot of things to do, don't think it's wrong to be the president, that's quite a lot."

Han Jun analyzed: "I guess Tan Dong wants to retreat and ask Mr. Zhou to step forward. Didn't Mr. Zhou talk too much now?"

"You're right, Mr. Zhou is indeed talking more now than before." Qin Haixiao agreed with Han Jun's opinion.

"Does that mean my master doesn't care about anything?" Liu Yang asked.

"What's wrong? You don't want to tell your master to rest?" Xiaofeng asked.

"That's not true, it's just that he's a bit uncomfortable when he doesn't speak, as if he has some shortcomings." Liu Yang whispered.

"It's not good if you don't talk, so you don't have to be reprimanded." Xiaofeng smiled and continued, "Your master has been busy all these years. He's tired enough. I didn't see how he is now? High blood pressure, high blood sugar, Hyperlipidemia, a typical three-high crowd.

There is also bronchiectasis, he vomits blood at every turn, the stomach is not good, and the kidneys also have problems.The body of a person in his [-]s and [-]s is seriously overdrawn, and it is time to rest.

It is best for him to find a quiet place to recuperate and recuperate. The less people are disturbed, the better. Don't worry about not getting angry. Don't care about anything. You can live for two more years. "

When Xiaofeng spoke, her eyelids twitched involuntarily, and her heart felt uncomfortable for a while, a little bit twitching.To be honest, Lao Tan hasn't moved for half a month, and she also made a mistake. She knows what Lao Tan's body looks like, and it's a lie that old friends don't worry about it all these years.

The next morning Xiaofeng called Lao Tan, and Lao Tan said that he would visit the winery in the beautiful valley and stay for two days by the way.Xiaofeng asked him how his health was, Lao Tan said yes, there was nothing he could eat and drink.

Xiaofeng told Lao Tan about her plan to return to the provincial capital for the New Year, and asked Lao Tan when she would return to the provincial capital, and Lao Tan said it would be next month.Afterwards, Lao Tan asked her about her physical condition, and the two chatted for a few words before hanging up.

After hanging up the phone, Xiaofeng thought about it, thinking that the wine shop over the beautiful valley has been doing nothing, what did Lao Tan do in the past?So I called Zhou Xiaomei and asked Lao Tan if she knew about going to the Beautiful Valley, and Zhou Xiaomei said yes.Xiaofeng asked what she was doing, and Zhou Xiaomei said there was nothing to do, she just went to stay for two days.

"Oh, didn't he say he was going to Beijing? Why did he go to the Beautiful Valley? It's winter, skiing?" Xiaofeng asked.

"Then he didn't say—" Zhou Xiaomei said.

"How is his health recently? Didn't he get sick?"

"No, I'm in good health."

"Have you seen him?"

"Well, I saw it when I returned to Hohhot."

"Well, as long as he's fine, I miss him since I haven't seen him for more than two months, nothing else."

Hearing what Zhou Xiaomei said, Xiaofeng was a little relieved, and it was something to worry about.

In Wang Shulan's room in the Beautiful Valley, Old Tan put down the phone, and Wang Shulan who was cleaning the house asked, "Did Xiaofeng call?"

"Yes." Old Tan replied.

In the past two days, Old Tan has been answering calls from Zhang Li, Gu Yi, Yaru, Zhongqing, Huaqing, Li Shuang and others. Like Xiaofeng, or like Liu Yang, they all feel that Old Tan has not moved for half a month. Something is wrong, call and ask.

Lao Tan's answers were all the same, saying that he would come to see the beautiful valley and stay for two days by the way.

Everyone was skeptical, and then asked Zhou Xiaomei for confirmation. After getting a positive answer, they were relieved, and at the same time thought that Lao Tan was going to take a rest.

"How is she now?" Wang Shulan asked.

"She said she was fine, she sounded pretty good, and she should be almost fine," Old Tan said.

"That's good."

Wang Shulan threw a rag and began to wipe the kang.If someone who knew her came in at this time, she would definitely not be able to recognize her—she looked like a village woman.

The hair is pulled back casually, no make-up, and the face is shining in the sky. Although he looks good, he can't hide his real age.The air between the brows is less like that of an urban lady, and more like that of a rural woman.

A gray sweater on the upper body, a black down jacket vest, sleeves on the arms, and an apron tied around the waist.The lower body is a pair of blue pants, and the feet are cotton slippers made by Yingzi's mother.

The slender figure is gone, and the sturdiness of a peasant woman is now there.

This is just an image change, and there are more other changes.

In half a month, I learned how to make a fire, stew vegetables and rice in a big pot, and make a heating stove.Every day, like rural women, wearing a scarf on their heads and gloves, they go to the yard to carry firewood to the outhouse. When they get up in the morning, they pick up the ashes from the stove and put them in the iron picket.If you meet a neighbor's wife and daughter-in-law, you can chatter a few words, and then enter the room with a sigh of relief.

She made the small house warm and clean, just like the buildings in the city.

There are two potted flowers on the window sill, which Mr. Xiang brought from the greenhouse.Two pots of juicy garlic sprouts were given by Yingzi's mother, and one pot of thriving green onions was sent by Zhou Xiaomei's mother. The old lady gave birth to four pots of green onions in her own room, and there were too many to eat.

It was almost dark when Lao Tan and Wang Shulan arrived in the beautiful valley. Yingzi's mother had prepared meals and Xiaomei's parents were waiting at the gate of the courtyard.Yingzi's mother didn't know that Lao Tan was here to recuperate, but Xiaomei's mother told her that this simple rural woman felt very uncomfortable when she found out.

Xiaoyingzi is already in high school, and Wang Shulan sticks to her promise to send money over every year on time to support her child's education.As the saying goes, no thanks for a big favor, what Yingzi's parents can do is to send some local specialties from the field to the benefactor every year, and kill two little stupid chickens raised by the family during the festivals and give them to the benefactor.

Hearing that her benefactor said that she would come to Meili Valley for two days, she cleaned up the house early and heated the kang to make the house warm.When she saw Xiaomei's mother leading the workers from the wine shop to get rice noodles and vegetables, she was a little puzzled, thinking that her benefactor could eat as much as one person, and since she didn't live often, her family could afford it.

After Xiaomei's mother told the truth, she didn't know what was going on, so she rushed for two nights to make a pair of cotton slippers for Lao Tan and Wang Shulan.

Lao Tan and Wang Shulan got out of the car, and Xiaomei's parents and Yingzi's mother went up to meet them.

Xiaomei's father held Lao Tan's hand and called brother, but didn't say anything, the hand he was holding was shaking vigorously.

Xiaomei's mother looked at Lao Tan and said that the brother had arrived, tears fell down, and she turned around to wipe it silently.

As soon as she shed tears, Yingzi's mother also shed, and Wang Shulan's eye circles turned red.

They are so old Tan can't bear it, the root of the nose is sore, and he thinks vividly that if his mother and sisters knew that he had cancer like them, it must be the same situation when they saw him, and it was more serious.

He said in his heart that they must not let them know, and said on his mouth: "Don't let me in the house, I haven't eaten all day."

The three women realized that they had lost their composure, so they quickly stopped crying and greeted them into the room.

When he came to the house, Lao Tan took off his shoes and got on the kang as if he had come home. Xiaomei's father followed him on the kang to chat with him, and Xiaomei's mother and Yingzi's mother were busy serving dishes and meals.Wang Shulan opened the clothes box and took home clothes to change into. She put on the cotton slippers made by Yingzi's mother, and went about her work like a hostess.

Lao Tan was so happy that he drank two taels of ganoderma and ginseng wine.

Wang Shulan advised him not to drink it. He said it was fine, Ganoderma lucidum fights cancer, but drinking it is fine.

"Don't treat me as a patient. As soon as I become a patient, I will add up my illness and start thinking too much.

Do you look sick to me?No illness, just a good person.

The disease is not so delicate, the more you get used to it, the more it will cheat, if you ignore it, it will be nothing, and it will be honest. "

Seeing that Lao Tan was so open-minded, Xiaomei's parents and Yingzi's mother were relieved, and their hearts were also opened up. They put away the comforting and reassuring words they had prepared in advance, and replaced them with home-cooked words.
