The Peasant Gourment Chef

The next day, Zhang Lin's family rested at home, but Zhang Qingshan came instead of her.

Zhang Qingshan scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, my mother is not feeling well to rest at home, I will help you. Anyway, I won't go to the carpenter's shop now. I have time, I don't want the money."

Li Hehua nodded, not being polite to him.

Of course it is possible to help, but the help is only temporary. His age is just when he is learning, and there is no great future for helping her here. If you want to develop in the future, you still have to learn a foundation.

Li Hehua looked at Zhang Qingshan and asked, "Then what are your plans for the future?"

"Plan? Sister-in-law, I don't know what plan I can make." Zhang Qingshan was very frustrated and dared not look at Li Hehua, for fear of seeing the disappointment and contempt for him in her eyes. Success, he can make money to support his family before he is old. Many people want to ask big brother to help with errands. Big brother is always not worried about making money, but he, learning a craft, doesn't say it, and still loses so much. Money, and now the craft can't be learned.

He is really useless.

Li Hehua looked at him dejected and didn't say those empty and useless words of encouragement, nor was it surprising that he didn't have any plans, because most people at his age were confused and didn't know what to do. Learn something, his state is normal.

At this time, people need guidance.

So, Li Hehua changed his direction and said to Zhang Qingshan: "Then don't think about what you plan to do, just think about what you like. For example, what are you interested in, what you like to learn, or What makes you find it interesting? Take me for example. I like good food very much, so I open a restaurant to make money, so that I can do what I like and make money. what?"

Zhang Qingshan was stunned for a while, as if a new path had suddenly opened up in his mind, he suddenly became enlightened. Yes, he can think about what he likes to do, and then study hard. He never thought about what he likes to do before, just thinking about making money, and learning carpentry was arranged for him by his elder brother, so he went, but he was not happy with his studies, and he was not disappointed that he could not be a carpenter in the future. , which shows that he does not like the work of carpenter so much.

If he has something he likes to do, will he be very motivated? Are you having fun learning every day?

But what does he like to do?

carpenter? do not like.

blacksmith? I don't seem to want to learn.

Be a chef like a sister-in-law? No, no, he can't do this.

To be a pork seller? He couldn't stand the thought of that image.

Zhang Qingshan thought about countless jobs he knew in his mind, but was disappointed to find that none of them made him very tempted and wanted to do it. For so many years, he never seemed to think about it, and he really didn't know he liked it. what to do....

The joy that Zhang Qingshan had just raised was extinguished again, his brows furrowed unconsciously, and he felt annoyed at his own disappointment. Why didn't he even know what he liked?

Seeing that he was about to beat his head, Li Hehua hurriedly grabbed him, "What are you doing? It's hard to remember whether you like something or not. Many people are like this, and it doesn't mean that you have to think about it right away. Okay, you still have a lot of time, you can think about it slowly."

Zhang Qingshan sighed and was extremely frustrated, "Sister-in-law, I'm really useless, I can't even think of what I like to do..."

Li Hehua shook his head and patted his shoulder, "It's not that it's useless, it's just that you haven't discovered it yet, there are thousands of professions in this world, there are many things you haven't seen and experienced, and you know too little so far. So I haven't seen anything you're interested in yet."

Li Hehua added: "Well, Qingshan, you are here to help me temporarily, and then use your spare time to discover more new jobs. One day you will find something you are interested in, and then you can talk to us. "

Zhang Qingshan nodded, and decided in his heart to follow Li Hehua's words and go out to discover new jobs and find what he likes when he has time in the future.

Zhang Qingshan seemed to have suddenly unloaded the burden on his body, the whole person relaxed, and went to help with the easy steps that belonged to a young boy.

Zhang Tieshan looked at his younger brother's relaxed appearance, and was sincerely happy. He took Li Hehua's hand and rubbed it in his palm, "You always have a way, my big brother is not as good as you."

Li Hehua smiled playfully, "That's it!"

Zhang Tieshan was amused by her and nodded, yes, he is not as good as her, and he can have her, I don't know what a blessing, he cherishes happiness more than anyone else, such a treasure should be kept in his heart for a lifetime.

After the two played together, Li Hehua started talking about what she wanted to do. She wanted to add a carriage to the family before, but she planned to tell Zhang Tieshan, but who knew what happened yesterday, it was delayed.

"Shulin now goes to Mr. Nangong for four days a month, and it's not too close to us. Before, we used to walk to pick up Shulin, but when we go to Mr. Nangong, we won't get tired of Shulin. I can't stand it either, our family has to prepare a carriage, and when Shulin goes to Mr. Nangong's place, he will use the carriage to take him there, and then pick him up."

Before, she never thought about buying a carriage, because she could do everything on the go, but now it's not working anymore. In addition to the things that Shulin went to study, she still needs to go to the door to cook for others from time to time. Shulin Xiumu's Sometimes I have to take him and Jin Zhao out to play. All these things require a carriage, so it is necessary to buy a carriage.

Zhang Tieshan agrees with buying a carriage, so that when she goes out to cook in the future, he can also drive the carriage back and forth to pick her up, without bothering others, and without her having to suffer. "Then buy one. I'll go out and have a look when I'm not busy in the afternoon."

Li Hehua nodded, "If there is a carriage that is sold together with the carriage, just buy it. It's fine to spend a little more money. If you save money, you will find someone to fetch the carriage, which will waste a lot of time."

"Okay, I know."

Zhang Tieshan's work efficiency has always been very high, and he doesn't know where he came from. He knows everything and can get a little bit of everything. No, he went out in the afternoon and came back with a carriage when it was dark. , and took out a deed from his pocket and handed it to her, "This is a deed to buy a carriage, the family who sold the carriage sold the whole carriage with the carriage, and the carriage was just used, and the horse is also a prime-age horse. , I found someone who knows what to do, and there is no problem with the horse."

Li Hehua took the deed, and it said 30 taels of silver. This price is more expensive than buying a horse alone, but the whole carriage can be bought at this price, which is very good. If you want to come to Zhang Tieshan, you will find someone.

He does things fast. If she does it, it won't happen in a few days. In order to reward, Li Hehua pulled Zhang Tieshan's hand, scratched his index finger in his palm, and said, "It's good, what do you want to eat tonight? , do it for you!"

Zhang Tieshan was amused by the appearance of her wanting to reward him greatly. He was full of joy for her occasional reward, and was happy to play this little game with her, so he said, "Would you like to eat the jerky you made?"

Li Hehua raised his eyebrows, "Have you finished eating before?"

This jerky is made by Li Hehua according to the modern method of beef jerky, but the raw material is pork. It tastes delicious and chewy. It can be eaten as a dish or as a snack. It tastes quite hungry. Zhang Tieshan likes it very much. This man who doesn't like snacks very much. The only thing he likes to eat is this jerky. From time to time, Li Hehua will make a bag for him and let him put it on him as a snack.

Zhang Tieshan really finished eating it before. He knew that making this jerky requires a lot of materials, and there are rare Chinese medicine materials in it. It takes a lot of money and time to make a bag, so he usually doesn’t want to eat it, but although he It was already very economical to eat, but Zhang Qingshan Luo Er and the others would come to pick a little from him from time to time, and the food would be fast.

Li Hehua looked at him with a pained look, was amused, pinched his face, "Okay, it's okay, it's okay to give them some points, I'll do it for you, and you'll tell me after you finish eating." Don't foolishly wait until the reward to say it.

Zhang Tieshan nodded with a smile in his eyes.

In the evening, Li Hehua bought a large amount of fresh meat and the materials needed to make jerky. After working in the kitchen for a few hours, he made a large bag of new jerky for Zhang Qingshan.

Zhang Tieshan seemed to be holding a baby, and was only willing to eat one piece, then took another piece to feed Li Hehua, and put away the rest.

Li Hehua couldn't help laughing when he saw his baby. She knew that he was too hard to watch her do it once and was not willing to eat so fast.

This man...

The next day was the day when Shulin went to study at Mr. Nangong. In the morning, Zhang Tieshan drove the carriage to send Shulin there. When he came back, he said that the magistrate was also there and listened to Mr. Nangong’s lecture with Shulin.

When Li Hehua heard it, he immediately thought in his mind that he would make more food for lunch.

Originally, she also planned to give Mr. Nangong and Shulin some delicious food during lunch. This is also the welfare of Mr. Shulin. It is rare that Mr. Nangong likes to eat her dishes. Now the magistrate is also there. , she will do more, which can be regarded as thanking for what happened in court yesterday.

Li Hehua thought about it and planned to make them a crystal fresh shrimp and radish roll, assorted eggplant cup, honey glutinous rice lotus root and whole fish with watercress. The four dishes are the largest, and the largest plate is enough for three people, plus an after-meal dessert and an after-meal fruit platter.

Li Hehua made it in a hurry, and packed several dishes into a special food box. There were six layers in total. They were full and covered. It wouldn't get cold for half an hour, so it was just right for Mr. Nangong.

Zhang Tieshan got on the carriage with the food box, and soon disappeared on the street corner.

Li Hehua smiled, feeling that Zhang Tieshan, in addition to the shopkeeper and bodyguard, now has another career, that is, the driver of the restaurant. He really has multiple roles.

When the rest of the restaurant heard her sigh, they couldn't help but laugh.

Zhang Tieshan had been on this trip for a long time, and he didn't get home until more than an hour in the afternoon. The food box he was carrying was brought back intact, but there were no more dishes left in it. There were only six clean and new plates. I wanted to come. Also eat clean.

Li Hehua pulled Zhang Tieshan to sit down, took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat. Seeing that he was resting, he went to the kitchen and brought out the braised noodles specially made for him for him to eat.

Zhang Tieshan looked at the steaming noodles, raised the corner of his mouth, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Seeing that he had almost eaten, Li Hehuacai asked: "You will not come back until they have finished eating? You can send it later. The food box will be picked up when Shulin returns in the afternoon. Come back early to eat, don't be hungry. belly wait."

Zhang Tieshan swallowed his face and said, "This is the first time Shulin went there, and I wanted to see how he was, so I told Mr. Nangong about Shulin's situation. "

Li Hehua nodded, "What did Mr. Nangong say?"

Zhang Tieshan had a proud smile in his eyes, and said, "Mr. Nangong said that Shulin is the most talented person he has ever met, and said that he was born to be a master in this field. It is also said that Shulin is too young now, and his talents cannot be exposed prematurely, lest there are people with bad intentions and sinister intentions, and it will take until Shulin's mind matures and can protect himself before his talents can be made public."

Li Hehua very much agrees with Mr. Nangong's words, and she thinks so too. She doesn't want to expose Shulin's special features to others before he is young, but she also knows that Shulin's talent cannot be stopped, but she I hope that Shulin can protect himself before he becomes everyone in the eyes of the world.

It seems that Mr. Nangong has already made up his mind for Shulin. He really has a heart for Shulin, so that they can rest assured.

Zhang Tieshan finished the last mouthful of noodles in the bowl, "By the way, the magistrate asked me to thank you and said that the food was delicious. When Shulin comes to class in the future, he will definitely come and let you prepare his meal as well."

Li Hehua laughed, and these words seemed to be said by the unrestrained son, the magistrate of the county.

So, from this day on, when Shulin goes to Mr. Nangong's class, Huo Yi really arrives every day, even if he is busy in the yamen, he will arrive at lunch time, just to eat the food sent by Li Hehua, he is also persistent. . Li Hehua also figured out his taste because of this. Every meal delivered must have something that everyone likes to eat. After a period of time, everyone who eats has grown a little meat.

.....................................................

On this day, it was almost time for lunch. An old acquaintance came to the restaurant. It was a businessman named Wang who had been doing business in various places and occasionally stopped in the town. After a long time, Li Hehua knew that his real name was Wang Dayang.

"Brother Wang, are you in our town again today?"

Wang Dayang nodded with a smile, "I'm here to send a batch of silk to your town this time, and I just came to your place for dinner. I haven't eaten your food for almost a month, so I can't think about it on the boat, no matter what this time. You have to eat too, boss, although I didn't make an appointment, you have to add a table for me, so I can't regret going back."

Li Hehua smiled and nodded, "How can you, you can only come to eat once a month, I have to make a table for you anyway, you wait a moment, I will let someone take you up."

After speaking, Li Hehua looked at it and called Zhang Qingshan, who happened to be empty, "Qingshan, take this Boss Wang to the Xianshui Hall upstairs."

"Okay—" Zhang Qingshan walked over quickly, smiled and greeted people to go to the only reserved box on the second floor. This box was reserved by Li Hehua on purpose. If there is a box available, it can be used in a situation like today.

After a while, Zhang Qingshan came down to repeat the dishes ordered upstairs to Li Hehua, and Li Hehua asked him to take charge of the guests at the table of the merchant surnamed Wang this afternoon.

Zhang Qingshan nodded seriously, and quickly went upstairs with tea and snacks.

Zhang Qingshan is very responsible and diligent in his work. He acts carefully and quickly, and he speaks well when entertaining guests. Moreover, he is tired after a day's work and doesn't know how to rest, like a diligent old scalper.

After observing for a few days, Li Hehua felt that this child is capable of doing things. As long as he finds the right direction and trains him well, it is still possible. God will never let down people who are down-to-earth and willing to work.

Li Hehua thought in his heart that he still had to inquire more about Zhang Qingshan's learning of craftsmanship, so as not to delay the children.

When the merchant surnamed Wang was checking out after eating at the table, he also praised Zhang Qingshan to Li Hehua, "This guy from your family is very good, capable, and he can speak well, and he is good at recruiting."

Zhang Qingshan was praised and his face was slightly red, but his expression was extremely happy, and his eyes were shining brightly.

Li Hehua couldn't help but take a second glance.

When the businessman surnamed Wang walked out of the restaurant carrying a large pile of food, Zhang Qingshan was still smiling and looking at people's backs.

Li Hehua waved his hand in front of him, "Qingshan, what are you looking at? Everyone is gone, why are you so excited today?"

Zhang Qingshan pursed his lips and smiled and shook his head, "Sister-in-law, I can't tell you now, I'll tell you when I'm sure, okay?"

Li Hehua shook his head with a smile and stopped asking.
