China Entertainment Zero Two Ordinary Actor

Chapter 773: Unique skill, filling cakes with eggs!
In the back kitchen of this restaurant full of cultural characteristics, Fang Yu's request seemed to touch the sensitive nerves of the Chinese uncle.

The uncle stirred the stir-fry for a moment, and his eyes looked through the oil smoke with a bit of scrutiny and distrust.

"No, my craftsmanship will not be passed on to outsiders." The uncle's voice was firm and powerful, and his words revealed a kind of persistence in traditional craftsmanship and pride in his own skills.

Fang Yu did not back down because of the old man's rejection. His eyes sparkled with love and respect for the art of cooking.

The uncle seemed to have misunderstood Fang Yu's intentions. He thought it was the old white woman, the owner of the restaurant, who wanted to find someone to inherit his skills and take his place.

"I'm telling you, I won't be fooled." There was a hint of anger in the uncle's voice, "I will never pass on my skills to outsiders! Give up on this idea!"

"I sincerely hope to learn your craft," Fang Yu said sincerely, "not because I want to replace you, but out of love for cooking and admiration for your skills."

Jingtian listened to Fang Yu's explanation and looked at his serious and sincere expression, and felt moved in his heart.

She found that Fang Yu was so serious about everything he did. A bright Chinese man, he actually talked down to a chef because he wanted to learn how to cook. This character was really hard to fault.

The old man put down the frying spoon in his hand and looked at the heat rising from the pot. His voice had a hint of the sternness and concern of an elder: "What are you doing at a young age? You have to do what thieves do, young man. I advise you to learn well.”

"Hey? Why do you look so familiar, kid?" The uncle's voice broke the silence.

"Hello, my name is Fang Yu, and I am an actor." Fang Yu introduced himself politely, his attitude was respectful and natural.

"No." Fang Yu refused without raising his head. He picked up the basin, poured flour in, rolled up his cuffs, and exposed his strong forearms. Fine flour had been poured into the basin, and he began to knead the dough with skillful and precise movements. There is rhythm.

Fang Yu and Jingtian looked at each other, and they both felt that something must have happened between the uncle and the white aunt. The white aunt didn't seem to be worthy of the uncle, but the uncle was reluctant to leave for some reasons, which resulted in the current situation.

After Fang Yu listened to the uncle's words, there was no trace of anger in his eyes, but a kind of peace and respect. He understood the uncle's concerns, but at the same time he also wanted to clarify his true intentions:
"I only learned to cook because I want to cook for my family who loves Sichuan food. It's not what you think. I don't know what grudges you have with this restaurant. It's just that I want to learn."

Jingtian listened on the sidelines. She didn't expect that the rumor that Fang Yu could cook turned out to be true. In the past, she always thought that it was just an effect in a variety show, but now it seems that Fang Yu does have a skill.

After hearing Fang Yu's explanation, the uncle didn't respond immediately. Instead, he was silent for a while, seeming to be thinking about something. When he looked up, he saw Fang Yu's face.

"You want to learn to cook, that's fine, but I need to check your background first. Have you known how to cook before?" The uncle began to show some interest in the young man in front of him.

Fang Yu's palm pressed and rotated the dough, and every push and pull seemed to be done with ease. As he moves, the dough gradually becomes smooth and elastic. There is a special rhythm in his movements, as if he is not cooking, but performing an art performance!
Soon, a thick piece of dough turned into thin pieces of dough under Fang Yu's skillful hands. He cut it into long and thin noodles with a knife. Each noodle was even and elastic, exuding a light wheat flavor. fragrant!
His focus and seriousness made Jingtian stop involuntarily. She stood aside and watched quietly, and her understanding of Fang Yu increased a little bit more.

"Why do you care about this? I just wish no one would come to eat. Then the old woman's restaurant would close down. I'm the most benevolent person anyway. It has nothing to do with me. I'm the cook, and nothing else has anything to do with me." The uncle revealed in his words. Showing a trace of dissatisfaction with the status quo and yearning for freedom.

"Let's do it this way. You just do it. You do what you're good at. I'll take a look at your background and then I'll know how to teach you." The uncle gave the test.

The uncle stood aside, his eyes fixed on Fang Yu's movements, nodding or shaking his head from time to time, obviously evaluating Fang Yu's skills.

"I'm just telling you! I think I've seen you somewhere. Just be careful and you're not that damn old woman." There was a hint of relief in the uncle's tone. He was obviously a little dissatisfied with the owner of the restaurant.

"Staple food? You can make hand-made noodles, but not stir-fry? Isn't this contrary to Tiangang? Making staple food is much more difficult than stir-fry. As long as stir-fry is not salty or mushy, it can be eaten when cooked. If you can't make staple food well, That's a pot of inedible batter." There was a hint of ridicule in the uncle's tone, but at the same time, it also revealed Fang Yu's doubts.

"Well, I cook a lot of staple food, such as hand-made noodles, steamed buns and other stir-fries." Fang Yu answered honestly, with a hint of humility in his words.

Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, "If I cook it, won't it be slow for the kitchen to serve the food?"

Jingtian immediately rolled up his sleeves and asked, "Do you need me to do anything?"

After the uncle's inspection, he seemed to see something unusual in Fang Yu. There was a trace of confusion on the uncle's face, but it soon turned into a feeling of familiarity.

Jingtian observed Fang Yu's movements from the side. She found that Fang Yu was making pasta with ease, and every step seemed so natural and skillful. She began to realize that Fang Yu seemed to have learned a bunch of life skills in order to play some roles well, and he was equally good in life.

The uncle's tasks were arranged, and Fang Yu rolled up his sleeves and started to prepare. His techniques are skillful, and every movement reveals traces of his daily cooking.

There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, maybe he saw some potential in this young man.

Then, Fang Yu started preparing steamed buns. He wrapped the prepared meat filling into the dough with dexterity and made every fold just right.

The buns gradually swell in the steamer, and through the thin dough, the aroma of the meat fillings overflows, making people salivate.

The moment the steamer lid is lifted, a burst of hot steam is accompanied by the delicious aroma of the meat fillings and the softness of the dough. The entire kitchen is filled with an irresistible aroma!
Finally, Fang Yu showed off his specialty - egg-filled pancakes. He rolled the dough into a thin pancake, fried it in a hot oil pan until both sides were golden brown, then lightly poked a hole in the pancake, poured the beaten egg liquid into it, and continued to fry until the eggs were solidified!

The process of making egg-filled pancakes is full of visual and olfactory enjoyment.

During the frying process, the deliciousness of the eggs blends perfectly with the crispiness of the dough. The egg liquid slowly solidifies on the golden cake surface, forming an attractive layer of egg skin, exuding an alluring aroma!
The entire kitchen was filled with this aroma, and every corner was filled with the aroma of food.

The uncle and Jingtian were both attracted by the fragrance and looked forward to it.

Jingtian couldn't help but admire: "Fang Yu, your skills are enough to open a restaurant!" Her eyes sparkled with the desire for delicious food, and she spoke highly of Fang Yu's skills.

He handed the prepared egg-filled pancake to Jingtian and invited her to taste it.

Jingtian took a bite. The egg-filled pancake was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The deliciousness of the eggs and the aroma of the dough intertwined in his mouth, forming an indescribable and wonderful taste!

A proud smile appeared on Fang Yu's face, and a system prompt sounded in his ears.

[Your egg-filled pancakes have conquered Jingtian, egg-filled pancakes +3]

Jingtian stood aside and witnessed Fang Yu's entire cooking process, her eyes full of admiration. When Fang Yu brought the last plate of fragrant egg-filled pancakes to the table, Jingtian couldn't help but sigh:

"Fang Yu, your skills are really amazing. You can hand-roll noodles, steamed buns, and egg-filled pancakes. You can do everything so authentically that you can rival a professional chef!"

Her words were full of admiration. Fang Yu's craftsmanship not only opened her eyes, but also gave her a deeper understanding of the man in front of her.

The uncle watched the entire production process, and his eyes gradually changed from initial suspicion to surprise, and finally settled on admiration.

Although I haven't tasted it, I can tell just by looking at Fang Yu's smooth movements that Fang Yu has a good foundation.

"I accept you as my apprentice! I didn't expect you to be so talented and know how to cook so many authentic staple foods. There are not many young people like you who can calm down and cook pasta." The uncle's words revealed Fang Yu's enthusiasm. Approved, he decided to pass on his cooking skills to this young man with potential!
Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

This is just great.

He can finally learn how to cook. He used to feed Liu Yifei staple food every day, and she almost turned into a fat lady. From now on, he will give her less carbohydrates, and the most beautiful fairy will return to the world.

Fang Yu showed off his craftsmanship in the back kitchen, and the customers in the front room became a little impatient. They have been waiting for a long time, but the food has not been served yet. The white aunt, the owner of the restaurant, heard the complaints from the customers and hurried into the kitchen to understand the situation.

"Old Liu, what's going on? Why hasn't the food been served yet?" There was a hint of anxiety in the white aunt's voice. She knew that the waiting of customers would directly affect the reputation of the restaurant.

The uncle glanced at the white aunt and didn't say anything. He just pointed at the food Fang Yu made.

There is one basket of steamed buns, two portions of egg-filled pancakes, and two bowls of hand-made noodles.

Fortunately, Western food is mainly about small portions and presentation, and foreigners have never had good food, so Lao Liu just fooled around.

He directly put the buns made by Fang Yu on the dinner plate, the hand-rolled noodles into a small bowl, the egg-filled pancakes cut into pieces and put them on the food plate, and then said loudly: "Serve!"

The white aunt looked a little strange at these "novel" things. She had never seen Lao Liu making these pastries in so many years. These things didn't look spicy at first glance. She wondered if Lao Liu had forgiven herself and just ignored them. Winking, "Liu, don't sleep in the guest room tonight. I want to have a chat with you, okay?"

"Go away! I asked you to serve food, not sell horseworms! Go away, go away!"

The white aunt's eyes turned red, but she didn't say much. She obviously heard such insults often, so she didn't stay too long and directed the waiter to leave with several plates of "Fang Yu's products" divided.

As soon as the white aunt left, Jingtian couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, what happened with her?"

"Xiao Nizi, do you want to ask me anything? It's okay, the neighbors know it anyway, and you two are no exception."

The uncle's thoughts went back to more than forty years ago, "At that time, I just arrived in this unfamiliar place, and the old white woman turned out to be very beautiful!" When he said this, memories flashed in the uncle's eyes.

"At that time, she had just divorced and her life was no longer secure. As for me, I was a poor boy who had just arrived. We met at a job recruitment place and went to the same Chinese restaurant. I worked as a cook and she was a waiter."

"I found that she often skipped dinner and took the staff meals away every time. I didn't ask any questions, and occasionally gave her as much as she wanted to serve. Over time, we got together."

"Then after three or five years, I saved some money. I thought it would be okay to work for others all the time, so I thought about going it alone and found a place to open a shop with her."

"After opening the store for half a year, I found that she always spent all the money without saying a word, and never let me go to her house. I became suspicious, and then I asked her neighbor about this woman! This woman!"

When the uncle said this, he almost lost his temper. Fang Yu quickly comforted him, "We won't listen anymore! We won't listen anymore!"

"No, I have to tell you! I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"

"This woman has a man at home! Yes! Her ex-husband! She was not separated at all after the divorce, and she still lived with her ex-husband!"

Fang Yu thought to himself, after everything has happened like this, why is the uncle still with the aunt?

The uncle immediately explained, "That guy is a paralytic. He needs this woman to take care of me. I can't say anything else. We have been together for so long and she has hidden such things. I really can't stand it!"

Jingtian nodded awkwardly on the side. Although it was touching and pure love for the white aunt to do this, it was really unfair to the uncle. It felt like he was mentally cheating.

"Later, the guy died, and this woman got the certificate from me. I asked her for money a few years ago because I wanted to open a bigger store, but she said that all our joint property would be used to treat her ex-husband's illness. "

The old man's eyes were filled with deathly gray. Even an Oscar-winning actor couldn't portray his true feelings like this expression.

"Yeah." Fang Yu didn't know what to say, so he could only console him: "Master Liu, don't persuade others to be kind without their suffering, although I really want to say that life has to go on and so on."

"Young man, I've heard this kind of thing too many times. I don't know what to do. Who asked me to deal with such a prodigal woman? I'm so angry! Phew. It's okay now. Anyway, I only have this skill and this strength. When will I do it? If you don’t move, this old woman can drink from the northwest wind.”

"Uncle, I think aunt is a person who values ​​friendship. When you can't move, she should be able to do the same."

"Shit! If I'm sitting in a wheelchair by then, and she doesn't slap me every day, I won't even have the surname Liu!"

Just when the three of them were melancholy, the front hall exploded!

When Lao Liu heard the noise, he thought it was the food made by Fang Yu that was very unpalatable, and he quickly walked out to see what was going on.

Usually the fried dishes for foreigners are very spicy, but he does not do it deliberately. Mainly, Sichuan food must be spicy to be authentic. If it is not spicy, it will not be American-style Chinese food?

Although he said he wished this place would close down, in fact, he still spoke out about his integrity.

As soon as Lao Liu arrived at the front hall, he saw a British gentleman holding a fork and twisting the hand-rolled noodles made by Fang Yu in a circle before putting it in his mouth.

Old Liu wanted to come forward to discuss changing dishes, but the foreigner's eyes lit up!

"Oh Maiga! This is the most delicious pasta I have ever eaten!"

Ok?
Lao Liu was a little puzzled. When he saw that the three staple dishes in the waiter's hand had not yet been distributed, he quickly called over.

He decided to taste Fang Yu’s craftsmanship for himself!

As soon as he took the first bite, Lao Liu was astonished!

He would never have thought that an actor like Fang Yu could have such skills!

The hand-rolled noodles are chewy and the soup base is delicious; the steamed buns are filled with juicy meat and the dough is soft and waxy; the egg-filled pancakes are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the deliciousness of the eggs blends perfectly with the aroma of the dough!

Absolutely!
