Chapter 422: What’s the crux?

Peng Yue was very confident in his roasted sea cucumber with green onions, which could be seen from the expressions on everyone's faces when it was first brought out.

But the next moment, Peng Yue felt deeply powerless.
After seeing the braised sea cucumber with green onion, Mr. Wei didn't even move his chopsticks, and then turned his attention to the braised tofu made by Chu Yunfeng.

Chu Yunfeng stared closely at Mr. Wei's movements, especially his eyes.

Mr. Wei's eyes obviously brightened up after seeing this dish, and Chu Yunfeng seemed to see his body move slightly.

then
There's no after that!

Mr. Wei shook his head and lay back on the chair. He only heard Teacher Jiang sighing heavily.

Alas~!It seems it failed again!

What Peng Yue saw at this time was already the third time. It was like this the previous two times when he came with his master and senior brother.

At that time, I was still thinking that if I went into battle, I would definitely succeed, but now it seems that I have thought about this matter a little too simply.

"Old man, what's wrong with you? Do you have no appetite at all? Why don't you take a few bites?"

Teacher Jiang's words had a hint of "hating iron but not steel", and also revealed a deep concern, which made her feel very conflicted.

Mr. Wei closed his eyes and said nothing, which really left everyone helpless.

Chu Yunfeng discovered an anomaly, that is, Mr. Wei's body did move when he saw the braised tofu he made.

It shows that he actually still wants to try it, but the desire and motivation to try it are insufficient.

And judging from the current observation results, Mr. Wei's condition is indeed not related to the disease, but should be a psychological and emotional problem.

But where does this crux lie?

How to break it?
"Ugh
This old man still has no appetite. Thank you two little masters for your hard work. If he doesn't eat, I will! "Teacher Jiang picked up the chopsticks on the table and started eating.

Tears fell down while eating!
"Teacher Jiang, what are you doing?"

Minister Jin asked with concern. The old couple had a deep relationship. Seeing Mr. Wei like this, Teacher Jiang must have felt uncomfortable.

"It's okay, it's okay. This dish is very good, but it's a pity. My kid really likes sea cucumbers, but he hasn't been back for three years, and he can't taste this taste even if he wants to."

Teacher Jiang controlled her emotions, wiped away her tears with a tissue, and then started to mention her son.

Chu Yunfeng's attention had always been on Mr. Wei. Teacher Jiang's words made Mr. Wei's eyes open immediately, and his eyes burst out with powerful gazes.

However, it only lasted for less than three seconds before it dimmed and he closed his eyes again.

The things that attracted Mr. Wei were all very important details. Chu Yunfeng wrote them down, believing that the more details he had, the closer he would be to the truth.

"What are you planning to cook tomorrow?" Peng Yue pulled Chu Yunfeng aside and asked seriously.

"Chickpea blossoms." Chu Yunfeng said it in one breath. This was actually Minister Jin's meaning. He had conveyed this meaning very tactfully on the way here.

"What about your ingredients? Have you told Teacher Jiang?" Peng Yue continued to ask, which surprised Chu Yunfeng.

"You don't still want to purchase ingredients yourself, do you? Brother, what do you think?" Peng Yue saw Chu Yunfeng's hesitation, frowned and continued to ask.

Peng Yue really guessed it right. Chu Yunfeng really wanted to go shopping in the afternoon to see what high-end ingredients could be prepared, but there was something in Peng Yue's words!

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Chu Yunfeng vaguely thought of something, but still asked.

"Of course there is a problem. Hey, forget it if you don't understand. Just tell me what ingredients you want and I will prepare them for you.

Go directly to the kitchen of our hotel tomorrow morning to cook it. When it's ready, I'll send it over with you.

Or you can tell Teacher Jiang and ask her to help you buy it. You can come over here in the morning and do it.

But if you want more convenience, it's better to go to our hotel, what do you think? "

Peng Yue's words made Chu Yunfeng think about it. It seemed that it was more convenient to go to the restaurant. The broth in the restaurant was cooked in advance, which was much more convenient.

Anyway, ingredients cannot be synthesized in this mission. It is the same wherever you go. If you do it here in the villa, the time to cook the soup will not be enough.

By the time the soup stock is cooked, the time for your mission will be over, and this mission will definitely fail.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, thank you then!" Chu Yunfeng patted Peng Yue on the shoulder, understanding that he was doing this for his own good. If it were another person, Peng Yue would not do such a thing.

"Are you okay tonight? How about I take you to try some delicious food? Is there anything you want to eat?
Roast Duck?

Hot mutton?
Bursting belly?
Jajang noodles?
Let me tell you, the place I take you to is not a place that others often go to, but the taste is definitely the most authentic, so please be at ease. "

Peng Yue talked about a long list of famous delicacies in the capital, but found that Chu Yunfeng didn't seem to be very interested, so he shook his head every time he said it.

"It seems you came prepared?! Tell me where you want to go, and I'll take you there!" Peng Yue understood immediately that this guy wanted to "learn lessons."

It seems that he wants to go to famous restaurants to try the dishes.

After understanding Chu Yunfeng's thoughts, Peng Yue was not surprised at all. When cooking has reached Chu Yunfeng's stage, it requires a process of learning from each other's strengths to offset weaknesses.

I have done this myself, and I was prompted to do it by my master.

Tasting the dishes made by others will not only discover your own shortcomings, but also absorb the strengths of others, so that your cooking skills can be further improved.

There are many ways to make a dish, and there are also many differences in techniques. The dish of fish-flavored shredded pork is a good example of this.

If a person makes this dish a hundred times, it can be said that the result will be different every time, both in taste and shape, so this dish has become a "nightmare" for many chefs.

"Emei Restaurant, Kung Pao Chicken!" Chu Yunfeng said his destination and dishes.

"Good guy, you really know how to choose. Oh, I'm going there tonight. Wait until I call to reserve a seat. It's very popular there. If you don't book in advance, you'll have to queue up."

When Peng Yue went to make a phone call, Chu Yunfeng saw Teacher Jiang clearing away the dishes and followed her in.

"Teacher Jiang, has your son not been back for a long time?" Chu Yunfeng asked as he helped hold the bowls and chopsticks.

"Yes, it has been more than three years. The old man has been talking about it some time ago. He said that he can't see his son now, and his grandson is still young, and he still speaks English, so it is difficult to communicate."

Teacher Jiang sighed again when he said this.

Some time ago?

Could this change in Mr. Wei's mood be caused by this incident?

It's very possible that this longing is the easiest to cause emotional changes, but what kind of food can make Mr. Wei interested?
"Xiao Chu, have you told Teacher Jiang about the ingredients for tomorrow's cooking?" Minister Jin followed up and asked.

"I made an agreement with Peng Yue to go to their hotel tomorrow to do it." Chu Yunfeng turned around and replied.

"Ha~! Okay, by the way, Teacher Jiang, let's take our leave now and wait for Xiao Chu to prepare the dishes and deliver them over tomorrow."

After Minister Jin confirmed this matter, he was ready to leave.
