I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 163: Others eat for nothing

"Grandma, try this braised pork with some tofu milk. It tastes very fragrant. The meat is also stewed crispy and delicious. It shouldn't be greasy."

"Well, good, delicious!"

"Try this steamed pork ribs again. It's also very good. The bones will fall off as soon as you pick it up with chopsticks. You must be able to eat it."

"This one is also good. The fermented bean flavor is very strong and fragrant!"

"Boiled fish fillets are also delicious. There are no spines, but a little spicy. If you are not used to it, eat less."

"Silly boy, we Zhangjiang people, do we have anything that doesn't eat spicy food?"

"..."

Although there were only two people in the family, Jiang Yu and grandma still ate very happily. The most important thing is that this dish is delicious!
No one can invite a chef like Jiang Yu to cook for the Chinese New Year. Even if it is Lu Shuwu's house, when the Chinese New Year comes, it will not be his grandfather Lu Jinsheng who cooks.

It would be great if one of Lu Jinsheng's apprentices could be invited back to cook.

Therefore, if Lu Shuwu knew that Jiang Yu cooked such a large table of dishes during the Chinese New Year, he might not be able to stay at home, and he might have to sneak over one day earlier to celebrate the New Year with Jiang Yu.

The grandparents and grandchildren were not in a hurry, and while eating slowly, they chatted, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

At this moment, Jiang Yu suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the yard, and he turned his head suspiciously.

During the Chinese New Year, there are generally few people who visit the house. Most of them are at home for the Chinese New Year. The neighbors will go to the streets to chat with other people or form a team to play cards and the like.

How could someone come here at this time?
Just as he was wondering, there was a burst of hearty laughter from outside, and then, a familiar loud voice rang out:

"Old sister-in-law, is it still Chinese New Year? I'm here to wish you New Year's greetings! Xiao Yu is here too, hahaha!"

While talking, the man came in from the outside.

Jiang Yu took a closer look, ho, isn't this his uncle?The Chinese New Year is over so early in his family?

This is not easy to ask, the visitor is a guest!

Jiang Yu didn't say much, and quickly got up to give his uncle a chair, and said:

"Uncle, sit down first, I'll make you a cup of tea!"

"Don't bother, don't bother!"

Uncle waved his hands again and again, stood there neither sitting down nor leaving, his eyes fixed on the dishes on the table, his throat couldn't help moving up and down, and he said with a dry smile,

"I'm just here to take a look, just to take a look...

Hey, Xiao Yu, your New Year's Eve dinner is quite sumptuous. If two people make such a big table, if you can't finish it, it will be a waste! "

"Don't worry, you can't waste it!"

Grandma knew too well what this uncle was thinking. She didn't even look at him, and said while putting vegetables in her mouth,
"It's winter now, and it won't go bad after a few days. Besides, we still have a refrigerator at home, so we can keep it and eat slowly."

The uncle looked regretful and said:
"Oh, you are such a good dish, the taste will change after a few days!"

Seeing him like that, Jiang Yu probably guessed what was going on. This uncle, it's not the New Year's Eve yet, so he wants to spend the New Year here, right?
After thinking about it, he tentatively said, "Uncle, why don't you go to the table and eat some more?"

"Oh, then I won't be polite!"

As soon as Jiang Yu finished speaking, the uncle immediately stepped forward as if waiting for this sentence, moved the bench and sat down, smiling at grandma with a straight face,

"Old sister-in-law, it's not that I'm greedy, it's Xiaoyu who invited me to eat!"

"Look at your good luck!"

Grandma curled her lips and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu hurried back to the kitchen and brought a fresh set of clean dishes.

As soon as the uncle took it, he didn't intend to drink. He picked up a piece of chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth. He nodded repeatedly while eating:
"The ribs are delicious. They are crispy and rotten. They are delicious. How can my old woman know how to cook? She wasted such good dishes!"

Jiang Yu couldn't help laughing when he saw the way he was eating. This uncle was too funny. He had only heard of Cengfan before, but he actually wanted to go to someone else's house to spend his "Chunnian".

This is simply unreasonable!
Just as Jiang Yu was about to sit down and continue eating, he heard footsteps coming from outside. Before he could turn his head, another group of people "hula-la" came from outside.

"Old sister-in-law, we are here to accompany you to celebrate the New Year!"

"That's right, it's just you and Xiaoyu celebrating the New Year, it's not lively at all, so we all came here together!"

"Yes, yes, the New Year is so lively when there are many people. We didn't expect it before, but this year we have to accompany you!"

"..."

Although she knew that these people were telling lies, grandma felt warm in her heart when she heard it. She didn't show any face to these people anymore, and gave Jiang Yu an order:
"Xiao Yu, go and bring the bowls and chopsticks, grandma has to have a good drink with your uncle and aunt today!"

"Hey!"

Jiang Yu responded, and ran back to the kitchen to get the dishes.

This year has been so lively!
……

After the Chinese New Year, the days became dull. With Jiang Yu watching at home, grandma didn't go out to pick up trash anymore.

In addition, with Jiang Yu at home, not only did the food taste good, but also the food tasted good. In less than half a month, grandma's face became rosy, and her body also visibly improved.

In this way, Jiang Yu would not let grandma do the hard work.

In order to let grandma have something to do, so as not to run to pick up trash after he left, Jiang Yu thought for several days, and finally came up with a good solution.

He invited some workers to come, built a wall around his yard, and built a shed in the corner.

After the work was completed, Jiang Yu went to the fresh food market again, bought a large group of chickens and ducks, brought back a little yellow native dog along the way, and closed the gate of the courtyard. These chickens, ducks and native dogs , they were all scattered in the yard.

When grandma came back, she was very happy when she saw these chicks and ducklings. She hurriedly took some rice from the kitchen and sprinkled it on the ground to feed them.

While feeding, she also asked, "Xiao Yu, why are you thinking about buying chickens and ducks?"

"The chickens and ducks raised by myself are much tastier than those raised on feed. Moreover, the chickens and ducks can lay eggs to eat!"

Jiang Yu didn't tell grandma the truth, he said with a smile,

"Grandma, you have to take good care of these chickens and ducks. When I come back next time, you don't have to buy them again."

"Okay, okay! Don't worry, grandma has no other skills, it's still possible to raise some chickens and ducks."

Grandma nodded and said, "Next time you come back, grandma will kill chicken and stew duck for you!"

"Then I can wait to eat."

Jiang Yu responded with a smile.

With these chickens and ducks around, grandma doesn't have time to pick up trash, and she has to worry about someone jumping into the yard to steal the chickens and ducks she raised.

The winter vacation didn't end until the beginning of February, but Jiang Yu only stayed at home for a few days, so he couldn't stay any longer.

Because after grandma was free, she suddenly became keen on introducing someone to him.

She dressed cleanly every day, and went out in good spirits to visit the old ladies in the neighborhood, thinking of finding a gentle, virtuous, beautiful and generous girl for her grandson during the Spring Festival.

Jiang Yu was "forced to open business" a few times, but he couldn't stay any longer. As soon as the Lantern Festival was over on the 15th of the first lunar month, he packed up his things and prepared to go back to school.

Before leaving, he cooked another meal at home, invited all the seven aunts and eight aunts in the neighborhood to have a meal, and entrusted his grandma to their care.

His idea is very simple, since grandma doesn't want to go to Jiangzhou with him, she can only stay at home alone, but after all, she is old and not in good health, if something happens at home alone, he It's hard to know right away.

But with these seven or eight aunts and aunts in the neighborhood looking after them, the situation is much better. Someone can notify me if something happens, and I can rush back as soon as possible without leaving any regrets.

After finishing all this work, Jiang Yu made breakfast for grandma on the morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month.

After the two of them had breakfast, grandma looked reluctant to part with her and nagged for a long time. In fact, it was nothing more than asking Jiang Yu to take good care of himself outside.

At the end, seeing that it was already very late, and it would be almost noon if he didn't leave, Jiang Yu said:

"Grandma, you have to take good care of yourself when you are alone at home. You can't work as hard as before. Take care of your body. Our family's good life is yet to come!"

"Well, don't worry, grandma is not stupid, she will take care of herself, and I am still waiting for my great-grandson!"

Grandma nodded vigorously, but her eyes were full of reluctance.

"That's good, I'll go first, if there is anything at home, just call me!"

Jiang Yu showed a bright smile to his grandma, picked up the luggage bag, turned around and got into the taxi.

When he returned to Jiangzhou University, it was already afternoon, and Jiang Yu didn't go to the No. [-] canteen. The second floor of the No. [-] canteen should still be under renovation, and it was a mess when he went there.

He took the luggage bag and went straight back to his dormitory.

Since the opening of the Seventh Canteen, Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu lived in a separate room on the second floor most of the time, and this dormitory was basically empty.

No one has lived there for such a long time, the tables in the dormitory have already been covered with a thick layer of dust, and the mat on Jiang Yu's bed has not been removed yet, and there is only a thin blanket on the mat.

After putting the luggage on the chair, Jiang Yu picked up the broom and dustpan, and began to clean up the dormitory.

He kept working until it was almost dark before he cleaned the dormitory clean, re-covered the bed with thick quilts and sheets, and even replaced the quilts with thick quilts for winter.

After finishing all this work, Jiang Yu was about to sit down and take a good breath when the phone on the table rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was Hu Zhihai calling.

No one notified me when I went back to school. Could it be that this kid is a dog nose, and he knew the news so soon?

As soon as the phone was connected, Hu Zhihai burst out laughing on the other end:

"Old Jiang, you are finally back? I really miss you!"
