Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 74: Mrs. Zhang wants to seize Qian Datong’s house?
"Thank you, Master." He Yuzhu said happily.

Although you have your own system and can add some points to upgrade it, it is still necessary to recognize a master. No one exists in isolation in society and always needs the help of relatives and friends.

Having one more master will give you room for improvement in the kitchen, and it will be easier to establish yourself with a master taking care of you.

At least He Yuyu has his wife to take care of him, so he can rest assured. If he were left to Aunt Yi, he didn't know what he would be taught.

If it fell into the hands of the old lady, he didn't know how much meat he would produce.

Hong Henian said: "Yuyu is also well-behaved. It will be easier to take care of Yui after we recognize her as my godmother the day after tomorrow."

Hong Henian did not expect that He Yuzhu was so talented. Although he had a foundation before, he was only a 16-year-old child after all.

I have been working in the kitchen for a total of three months, and I have already mastered my knife skills, cold dishes, and stews. Especially tonight, there were more than 100 stir-fries and stews of various kinds. The taste and heat of each dish were impeccable.

Of course, such a good apprentice must be admitted as soon as possible to avoid being snatched away by others.

He Yuzhu thanked him repeatedly and took He Yuzhu home.

"Yu Yu, do you like Master Niang? Can you call him Godmother from now on?"

"Well, my godmother told me to let me call her mother from now on."

Since Yu Yu is willing, He Yuzhu can't say much. Having multiple godmothers is also beneficial to her growth and to herself. Of course, she is happy to see the results.

When work started the next day, Master He from the kitchen kept shouting, and everyone became much more polite to He Yuzhu.

After all, the most important thing for a chef is to cook and stew. This is the most intuitive and fundamental thing.

It doesn't matter how good the prepared cold dishes are. After all, nowadays people don't pay much attention to cold dishes. Many cold dishes for banquets are just decorations, and some have no cold dishes at all.

But He Yuzhu was really able to cook on the stove yesterday, and only then was he recognized by other chefs.

The three major cuisines in the entire kitchen are Beijing cuisine and Shandong cuisine headed by Zhang Zongsheng, Sichuan cuisine led by Hong Henian and his two apprentices, and finally Miao Qishan, who leads one apprentice and is good at Huaiyang cuisine.

There aren't many Huaiyang dishes, and even Miao Qishan doesn't have much status in the kitchen.

I often have to make ordinary small fry that others are busy with, so I am a role that has to do everything.

He Yuzhu came to the kitchen in advance. After making tea for his master, he also made a cup for Miao Qishan. He put it in front of him and asked casually: "Why didn't Brother Hu come today?"

The Hu Ge that He Yuzhu mentioned was Miao Qishan's disciple Hu Daijun, but up to this point today, no one had been seen.

Miao Qishan said: "He has a day off today."

Then he said: "Zhuzi, you can do it. You persisted all night."

The two people's stoves are adjacent to each other. They saw He Yuzhu's perfect performance yesterday and couldn't help but praise him today.

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "It's all taught by Master."

Hong Henian, who was drinking tea next to him, was very impressed, and Miao Qishan felt a little emotional. It was He Yuzhu who made people like his apprentice, and he couldn't even hit a fart with three sticks.

"Old Hong, give me your apprenticeship, and let's switch to another apprentice," Miao Qishan said jokingly.

Hong Henian took a sip, put down the teapot and said, "Okay, I was just about to tell you that tomorrow is a good day. I will put the pillar in the door, and you can come and bear witness."

Of course, a good apprentice doesn't want to take the time to distract this matter by talking about apprenticeship.

This is also the reason why Hong Henian decided to accept He Yuzhu in advance, so as not to be favored by others later, or if He Yuzhu regrets and does not want to recognize his master, wouldn't he be disappointed?

"Okay, then congratulations." Miao Qishan quickly congratulated you.

It is extremely difficult to receive a disciple with outstanding talent. Although many disciples have become apprentices, their talents are not enough and their level is limited. They can only be a master of a fly restaurant for the rest of their lives. Although they have no worries about food and clothing, in their view, this kind of It would be better not to accept him as an apprentice.

"We are happy together." Hong Henian said, "Why are you envious?"

"I'm a little envious, Zhu Zhu's talent is so good." Miao Qishan said.

Hong Henian suddenly said: "Then you can give me some advice when you are free?"

Although Huaiyang cuisine was not popular in the capital before, with the establishment of the country and the introduction of state banquet dishes, Huaiyang cuisine has occupied a place in the capital's dining circle.

On the day of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a welcome banquet was held in the Great Hall of the People. The dishes used were mainly Huaiyang cuisine, which had been newly sorted, improved and refined.

This has also led to many people in society yearning for state banquet dishes. If they are used to eating Beijing and Shandong cuisine, they will also be curious about ordering some state banquet dishes.

This is also the reason why Tai Feng Restaurant hired another Huaiyang cuisine chef.

As a cook, you cannot specialize in one cuisine. You should focus on one cuisine and supplement it with other cuisines. Only in this way can you be able to play a leading role in the kitchen.

When Hong Henian saw that Miao Qishan admired He Yuzhu very much, he casually said, "It's okay if you don't teach him. If you teach He Yuzhu, it will be one more thing."

In fact, Hong Henian himself can also cook some Beijing cuisine, Shandong cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine, but his cooking is not as authentic as theirs.

As a cook, even if you don't know how to cook, and you watch other people cooking in the kitchen every day, you can still be good at it if you try it yourself.

Miao Qishan thought about it for a moment and then said with a smile: "Okay, just learn a few tricks from me today, and you can teach Dai Jun some skills later."

"It's hard to say, then the matter is settled."

Hong Henian said: "Zhuzi, you will follow Master Miao today."

"Yes."

He Yuzhu felt happy. He had often observed Miao Qishan's cooking movements before, and wanted to steal Huaiyang cuisine from his system panel.

It's just that I haven't used it just by looking at it. The system currently doesn't include Huaiyang cuisine.

Today may be an opportunity. As long as you can get started with Huaiyang cuisine, you can practice it yourself in the future.

With Hong Henian's permission, He Yuzhu followed Miao Qishan and started making preparations today.

Huaiyang cuisine is one of the four major cuisines. It is developed in the southern Jiangsu area. It pays attention to the selection of ingredients and preliminary processing, the reasonable use of knife skills, the right heat, the harmony and variety of seasonings, and the texture of the dishes. Colorful.

Miao Qishan first introduced the history of Huaiyang cuisine to He Yuzhu, especially the fact that the state banquet was mainly based on Huaiyang cuisine, which made him very proud.

Then he started to make preparations with He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu's superb knife skills are also the basis for cooking Huaiyang cuisine. Everything arranged by Miao Qishan can be completed smoothly, and his vegetable cutting skills are no worse than his.

Miao Qishan was sincere in teaching cooking skills, and he taught some tips when making. He also let He Yuzhu do some uncomplicated processes by himself.

He Yuzhu studied seriously and completed the work in strict accordance with the requirements. It was around 9 o'clock in the evening when suddenly a system message popped up in the corner of his vision:
[You have learned a new skill - Huaiyang cuisine, level lv1]

He Yuzhu was overjoyed. He thought it would take a few days of study before he could get started. He didn't expect that he would admit that he had gotten started after just learning the system for a day.

He Yuzhu had just accumulated a few hundred experience points in the past two days. He Yuzhu directly opened the panel and added all the experience points.

It directly upgraded Huaiyang cuisine to the third level.

After the upgrade, He Yuzhu was already in good shape when he first started working, and he was no longer unfamiliar as before.

Miao Qishan was very surprised. He Yuzhu was still very unfamiliar just now. It was obvious that his movements were a little frizzy, but it didn't take long for him to become proficient.I was a little jealous of Hong Henian in my heart. A disciple like He Yuzhu was so talented. It was a pity that he was not his disciple.

The next day, Hu Daijun came back to work, and He Yuzhu missed the opportunity to practice Huaiyang cuisine, which was a little regretful.

At noon, He Yuzhu pulled Ye Xiangqun out and said, "Senior brother, we are going to become a disciple today. What are the rules of this apprenticeship ceremony?"

Ye Xiangqun scratched his head: "I almost forgot about this. I just bought four pounds of tobacco, wine, sugar and tea as a gift, and the master would give me a set of tools in return."

"Oh, I understand, I'll buy it now."

Then he said sheepishly: "Senior brother, don't blame me for paying double bills. My sister will also become my godmother tonight."

Senior brothers cannot give extra gifts to each other just because they are rich. That is against the rules. The senior brothers must be at the same level.

Otherwise, it will make senior brother look bad.

He Yuzhu also wanted to recognize his godmother at night, not to mention that the mistress would have to take more care of Yu Yu in the future, so He Yuzhu decided to give him an extra gift.

Tell your senior brother in advance so that he won't mind.

Ye Xiangqun smiled and said, "Okay, you should do this."

After bidding farewell to Ye Xiangqun, He Yuzhu went out for a walk and bought two bottles of Fenjiu wine, two large cigarettes, two kilograms of cakes and two kilograms of tea.

At this time, Maotai only cost 6 yuan a bottle, but people in the capital were generally not used to drinking it. They mainly drank Wuliangye and Fenjiu, and the second best ones drank Shanxi rice wine, Shaodaozi, etc.

It is still 51, and next year, the four famous wines will be rated, namely Maotai, Fenjiu, Luzhou Daqu and Xifeng. He Yuzhu’s Fenjiu is the best.

Time soon came to night, and several people left the kitchen early and came to Hong Henian's home.

Today is the day when He Yuzhu becomes the apprentice. He Yuzhu is also the chef for the evening meal. Four chefs help and a table is quickly prepared.

This is the critical moment.

Hong Henian, a man with a golden sword, was sitting in the main seat. Surrounded by everyone in the Hong family, Ye Xiangqun, Miao Qishan and his disciples were watching the ceremony, and of course He Yuyu.

At this time, the tradition of apprenticeship was not lost and was still carried out according to the old method.

Hong Henian first introduced the rules of the chef profession and offered three sticks of incense to the ancestor. Then He Yuzhu kowtowed three times and offered incense to the ancestor.

Next, He Yuzhu kowtowed to Hong Henian three times and served tea.

Wang Henian took it and took a sip, then put the tea cup next to him.

He Yuzhu presented the apprenticeship ceremony, and Hong Henian gave him a set of chef tools in return.

He Yuzhu kowtowed to his wife three more times and received a red envelope.

The ceremony of apprenticeship is now completed.

Only then could He Yuzhu stand up.

Next it was He Yuyu's turn. He became his godfather and godmother and received two red envelopes.

Hong Henian said happily: "Okay, let's try Zhu Zhu's craftsmanship next."

The sixth-level Sichuan cuisine level can guarantee that the dishes cooked by He Yuzhu will satisfy everyone.

Of course, this meal was enjoyed by both the host and the guest, who all praised Hong Henian for having a good apprentice and He Yuzhu's superb craftsmanship.

After worshiping his godmother, He Yuyu stayed at Hong's house to rest with Hong Jinling.

He Yuzhu still went back to the courtyard to rest. After all, he was still not used to resting in other people's homes.

After getting up in the morning, He Yuzhu packed up and wanted to go out. Yi Zhonghai stopped him and said, "I have something to tell you later."

"What happened? All the money was spent on me. I don't have a penny." He Yuzhu said first.

I thought Yi Zhonghai wanted to ask for more money, so I told him to stop him first.

Yi Zhonghai said angrily: "I saw it. You pushed it all in your hands and rode away every day before dawn. Who wouldn't know it?"

I get angry when I see the bicycle that He Yuzhu is pushing. I am reluctant to buy a bicycle that costs more than 300 yuan. I really don’t know how to live.

He Yuzhu fiddled with the bell, and a crisp sound rang out.Then he said with a smile: "Uncle, it's a long way to work. You should really buy a bicycle. Not only can you commute to get off work, but you can also put it in the yard and lend it to others to ride."

"How can I have money? Besides, if you have a bicycle, can't you just lend it to us?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Okay, but I have a long way to go to work to the front door, so I can only borrow it after I get off work."

Anyone can say nice things, but He Yuzhu doesn't mind. It's past 9 o'clock when he comes back from get off work. It's time to rest. How can anyone borrow a bicycle?

Although He Yuzhu didn't know why Yi Zhonghai stopped him, he felt very comfortable after chatting about bicycles. He liked to see Yi Zhonghai's sad expression when he wanted to embarrass himself but couldn't take advantage.

Yi Zhonghai sighed, decided not to mention the bicycle, and then got down to business.

"Zhuzi, are you kind to me?"

He Yuzhu looked Yi Zhonghai up and down and felt very strange. How could he have the nerve to say such a thing?

Could it be that Yi Zhonghai is holding back some disgusting ideas?
The corners of Yi Zhonghai's mouth twitched, and one could tell from his expression that He Yuzhu didn't trust him very much.

Then he said: "Zhuzi, why do you think I gave you 400 yuan? Is this how you miss me?"

He Yuzhu said: "Okay, don't talk about useless things. What do you have to say?"

Yi Zhonghai decided not to play the emotional card and tell the truth directly, trying to win over He Yuzhu's non-objection no matter what.

"You see, Dongxu is already in his early 20s. He asked the matchmaker to introduce several people, but none of them found him suitable."

He Yuzhu said quickly: "It's useless for you to tell me this. I'm not a matchmaker, so I can't introduce him to a partner."

"Besides, with Jia Dongxu's fucking appearance, what blind girl can fall in love with their family?"

At the moment, Jia Dongxu insists that his job is good, and he only wants to marry a well-educated girl from the city. Of course, it is best if the girl is beautiful and has a job. After getting married, she will become a dual-income family.

But such a good girl also has high vision. Although Jia Dongxu looks like 5 people and 6 people, her family conditions are not good.

In particular, the reputation of the shrewd mother-in-law Zhang was already well known, which deterred many girls. When they met Jia Dongxu, they said they had no objection. However, after a little inquiry, they found out that there was a powerful mother-in-law, so they backed down.

Of course Yi Zhonghai knew these things, but Jia Dongxu was his apprentice, so he could only help him with all his heart. Who made Mrs. Zhang take advantage of the last time the fried vegetables were too salty?

Yi Zhonghai said: "Don't Dongxu's house only have three wing rooms now?"

"Stop it, I will never agree to borrow another house."

"No, it's not about borrowing a house. Here's the thing. Qian Datong's family has a house, but no one lives in it. The Jia family wants to borrow it."

"What? Mrs. Zhang wants to take over Qian Datong's house?"
