Happy private dishes

Chapter 70

The so-called "New Year's Eve dinner" is the most important meal of the year, also known as "reunion dinner" and "family carnival".Elderly people pay special attention to the last meal of the year. No matter how busy they are or how far the journey is, they must rush home on the evening of New Year's Eve and have a happy New Year's Eve dinner.Most people always have to prepare New Year's Eve dinner in advance.

"What? Are you going to compare the New Year's Eve dinner with Yunlong Restaurant?"

Up to now, both Fang Shulan and Kou Yuanyuan are very busy.Usually, the two of them can't get together after get off work.I'm tired after working all day, and I can't chat and exchange feelings anymore.

So, exchange feelings, talk about some things, and put it in breakfast time.Both mother and daughter attach great importance to breakfast.Their breakfast is also very rich.

Fang Shulan originally planned to discuss with Kou Yuanyuan about their family's New Year.In the end, I heard Kou Yuanyuan say that their old Lu's house is about to compete with other restaurants for the New Year's Eve dinner.If you lose, the consequences are quite serious.

"Yeah. Yunlong Restaurant is really bullying people. They just saw our business is good, so they are jealous. Brother Lu simply accepted the challenge. Otherwise, everyone in the restaurant will feel uncomfortable in the future. Anyway, this time, We must win them in our store."

Kou Yuanyuan is drinking her mother's chicken soup.

After drinking the sweet soup, Kou Yuanyuan's eyes narrowed.On a winter morning, drinking a bowl of hot chicken soup is really comforting.

"Hey, well, mother should prepare our New Year's Eve dinner, right? You can just go about your business. You have to come back late on New Year's Eve?" Speaking of this, Fang Shulan couldn't help but sigh Take a breath.

She felt quite sorry.A child like Kou Yuanyuan has to work as hard as an adult.Thinking about it makes me feel a little sad.But seeing the excited look on the child's face, Fang Shulan couldn't say anything to stop her.

When she was young, she was crushed by rules and couldn't do what she liked.Now, she is finally freed from the shackles of the past.I really can't do anything to put my daughter in shackles.

Fortunately, Kou Yuanyuan is a very thoughtful and well-behaved child.There are also Xiao Lu and Xiao Xu at the old Lu's house who will take care of her.

Otherwise, Fang Shulan would definitely be even more worried.

"Well, I'll make Wugeng dumplings with you when I come back on the evening of the New Year's Eve."

"That's the only way to go. Yuanyuan, do you have any special food you want to eat? Mom's recording work is almost finished, and Master Feng is also giving me a holiday. In the past few days, Mom is trying to make more New Year's Eve dinners .”

"I want to eat meatballs with preserved vegetables and Sixi meatballs. However, if I make meatballs, let me chop the stuffing? I can chop the stuffing now."

"Success. Today, I'll go shopping first and come back. I just learned some New Year's Eve dinner recently, and I'll show you my skills then." Fang Shulan said with a confident smile on her face.

This is something she never had in the past ten years or so.However, since a few months ago, she won the Gold Chef Championship and then accepted the TV job.

Worked with Su Ge, and learned cooking skills from Master Feng.In the process, because of cooking, some people have already started calling her Teacher Fang.People also began to ask her some questions about cooking.

She felt a respect she had never felt before.So, slowly, cooking is no longer something that makes her feel inferior and painful.It's a happy and confident thing.

"By the way, Mom, do you remember a dish written in Grandpa's notes? It's called crispy walnut meat." Kou Yuanyuan asked suddenly after finishing her soup.

"I know. It should be called crispy pork with walnuts and pine nuts. I ate it when I was young. It's not ordinary braised pork, nor is it Fang Dongpo pork in sauce. It's a high-end banquet dish. Unfortunately, I Have you never done it before?" Fang Shulan said, her face was full of memories. "Otherwise, I'll buy a piece of meat and study it according to your grandfather's notes later?"

"Then there's no need. Mom, is this Sichuan cuisine?"

"Maybe. I remember Sichuan cuisine seems to have it." Fang Shulan was not so sure.

The field of diet is too broad.She has never seen many side dishes, let alone such high-end banquet dishes.

"It just so happens that we have a great chef of Sichuan cuisine in our store. I'll go ask Grandpa Yan." After Kou Yuanyuan finished speaking, she began to clean up the dishes.

After breakfast, she was about to set off to work in the store.

When there were few people resting in the afternoon, Kou Yuanyuan immediately went to Grandpa Yan's side and poured tea for him.

As soon as Grandpa Yan heard Kou Yuanyuan asking him, he immediately opened those small eyes.

"Are you asking for a piece of crispy pork with walnuts and pine nuts?"

"Yeah, it's probably such a dish. It's not ordinary braised pork, and it's not Fang Dongpo pork in sauce, it's just a piece of crispy meat." Kou Yuanyuan nodded quickly, and said everything she knew.

Then, Grandpa Yan smiled, his small eyes narrowed into slits.

"Where did you know this dish, girl? I'll forget it if you don't mention it. It's a government dish, and now many restaurants don't serve it. Most people just cook oily pork and braised pork during the holidays." Even if it is a big dish. In the past, only the government and upper-class families could cook this piece of crispy meat. I also heard from my master." Speaking of this, Grandpa Yan couldn't help but sigh.

"Only if the name of a first-class dish is added, it can be regarded as the dish of the government. Those people are for the sake of flattery. How about it, Xiao Yuanyuan, do you want to learn this dish from grandpa?" Speaking of this, Grandpa Yan's pair of The little eyes lit up instantly.His eyes were somewhat sharp.

Kou Yuanyuan looked at his vicissitudes of face, a little at a loss.

In her perception, other sects cannot learn the skills of this sect.Therefore, every time she looked at Grandpa Yan's mapo tofu, Kou Yuanyuan only dared to sneak a few glances, looking for opportunities to eat more.But I really dare not steal the teacher.Even if she could do it, she wouldn't dare to copy it easily in front of everyone.

As soon as Grandpa Yan saw it, he had gone through many vicissitudes, worked hard for half his life, and finally settled in the old Lu's house.Kou Yuanyuan dared not do anything that would affect him.Otherwise, without her master whipping her, she would beat herself to death first.

Master Bai standing next to Kou Yuanyuan saw Kou Yuanyuan's awkward and embarrassed look.Just tell Aunt Lu next to her:

"See, this girl dare not agree."

"Isn't this girl doing her duty honestly? Her master didn't respond, how dare she agree. But I heard that Mr. Gu wanted to find her in the Gu family, but she didn't want to go. So she just messed around with Xiao Lu." Aunt Lu said .

"..." When Kou Yuanyuan heard this, she quickly raised her head to look at Grandpa Yan, she really had no other intentions.

However, when she saw it, Grandpa Yan was looking at her happily.The vicissitudes of life on the face were covered with laugh lines.

"You are wrong. This girl is afraid that she will starve the master to death after teaching the apprentice! Girl, I just want to ask you, do you already know how to make my mapo tofu?"

Kou Yuanyuan was shocked when she heard it.She couldn't help but look at Grandpa Yan with a guilty conscience, and didn't dare to say anything.

"Well, you dare not say it. The first time you ate my mapo tofu, your eyes were round. You also secretly filled half a bowl more. The second time you ate it, you didn't fill it too much. Wait until the third time, Others want to eat it, and you gave up some. Have you secretly practiced it when you got home? If I’m not wrong, the mapo tofu you’re frying now is almost the same as my dish, right?”

"..." Kou Yuanyuan really didn't know how to answer.

But the other two masters laughed out loud.

"That's right, we have a little master with a particularly good tongue!"

"Otherwise, the taste wouldn't be so accurate? The dish has been fried for more than ten days, and I haven't made a single mistake."

Grandpa Yan suddenly finished drinking the tea that Kou Yuanyuan poured for him just now.

"People say that the apprentices of the church will starve the master to death. Originally, I didn't believe it. But, I was blind and accepted a white-eyed wolf. I learned the craft, but it pushed me away. After a serious illness , I was muddled. Others said that I was a lunatic and insane.

If it wasn't for Xiao Lu asking me out of the mountain, I would still be a lunatic.When I arrived at the old Lu's house, this little girl was always worried that I would be tired, so she would help me with work whenever she could.I'm afraid that I will steal my old man's job.What does my old man have?I have no children, and no one will visit my grave when I die.

Today, I just want to ask, Xiao Lu, I have a crush on your little apprentice.I also want to teach her craft.As a master, you should just say a word. "

"Uncle Yan, please don't say that." Lu Yuchi heard the conversation as soon as he walked to the kitchen door.I didn't go in for a while.

He already knew Kou Yuanyuan's character.He didn't have any views on the family, and he never thought that Kou Yuanyuan must only learn Lu's cuisine.

"Yuanyuan, in the future, you should learn your skills from Master Yan. In the future, you must be filial to Master Yan, you know? Master Yan is also your master." After Lu Yuchi finished speaking, he pressed Kou Yuanyuan's neck and asked her to bow to Grandpa Yan.

Kou Yuanyuan herself was dumbfounded.Is this another awesome teacher?
Anyway, Kou Yuanyuan bowed vigorously to Grandpa Yan. "Grandpa Yan, I will ask my mother to get you some wine."

Lu Yuchi patted her again. "This child is also called Grandpa Yan. Let the master know in the future."

"Understood, master." After finishing speaking, Kou Yuanyuan obediently stood aside.

Xiao Xu was also dumbfounded.

Then, I saw Master Yan pointing at him and saying. "This boy is also a good boy. If he wants to learn, my old man will teach him too. However, I just want to accept such a closed-door apprentice."

"Thank you, Master Yan." Xiao Xu replied foolishly.Kou Yuanyuan is valued by Grandpa Yan, Xiao Xu is really not jealous at all.

He had known for a long time that his sister was very popular with the elders.Even Chen Yukai's personality, after coming to work in the old Lu's house, always teases Kou Yuanyuan.

When Chen Yu was joking, she said: "How about it, Xiao Yuanyuan, I heard that you went to study math with a group of elementary school students. You wait two more years, and my daughter will be your classmate."

Kou Yuanyuan immediately fought back. "If, my sister is not like you."

She will definitely not suffer, but what she says will not make people angry.In addition, she has her own principles, and her personality is gentle and full of righteousness.At the same time, he is very good at acting and will never be offensive.

Ever since Grandpa Yan came to the old Lu family to work.Kou Yuanyuan felt that it was not easy for Grandpa Yan. He was old, and although he was clean, he didn't dress well.His hands were full of old wounds from the fire.The hair is also white.There must be no strength left.

There is a way to divide it, such an old man should have enjoyed the happiness at home long ago.

Therefore, Kou Yuanyuan helped Grandpa Yan whenever she had the opportunity.And also very measured.Definitely not the kind of condescending, charitable or compassionate attitude.

There are a lot of mapo tofu, so she doesn't even need to order, so she helps Grandpa Yan prepare the ingredients first.

People's hearts are made of flesh.Didn't Grandpa Yan value Kou Yuanyuan?

After get off work, Brother Lu was still afraid that Xiao Xu would complain.Just chat and talk.

"Xiao Xu, from now on, we 'Lu Sandao' will still have to rely on you! You look like a junior sister. I'm really afraid that I won't be able to keep her as a master."

"Pfft..." Hearing Lu brother's old-fashioned and sad words.Xiao Xu burst out laughing on the spot. "Master, you don't have to do this. I won't feel inferior."

"..." Not inferior?You have said it.
