Chapter 18: Comfort
His encounter with her was actually not so bloody, and it was still in this small restaurant.
At that time, she had not yet been admitted to Chinese opera, but she had already become famous early because of her appearance and dancing talents, and she jumped all the way from the largest province in northwest China to the central government.
At that time, she seemed to have just arrived in the capital, and together with several other dancers, came to this small restaurant.
Zhang Bufan's ancestral home is Sichuan Province, and the meals sold in this restaurant are basically Sichuan cuisine.
Like the other guests, they each ordered a dish, for such an authentic Sichuan cuisine, the other people ate with eyebrows and smiles, but she was the only one who ate a low eyebrow and lost her eyes, as if she had encountered the most difficult thing to swallow in the world.
It's not a problem that I can't eat it, the problem is that I was seen by Zhang Bufan.
Who is Zhang Bufan? The three-year-old master who learned to take a kitchen knife at the age of five is quite confident in his cooking skills, especially after taking over this small restaurant, all he heard was praise, and he hadn't met anyone who said that his dishes were unpalatable.
At that moment, his face sank, although he didn't speak, but he was far away from people's noses and eyes, even when he collected money.
People are not blind, of course I saw it, I was a little embarrassed at the time, and explained, "I'm sorry boss, it's not that the dishes you make are not delicious......"
Look, does that sound like an explanation? It's just adding fuel to the fire.
Fortunately, a companion who accompanied him couldn't stand it, and then explained, "Yaya is from the frontier, ethnic minorities, maybe you can't get used to eating Sichuan food, I'm sorry, boss, it's really not your problem of cooking, you see, we have all finished eating, and the dishes you make are really delicious." ”
Well, it's finally okay.
Is it really okay? Then there will be no follow-up.
People are gone, but Zhang Bufan can't get by.
Is it really just because she's a frontier person? You are not the only frontier person who comes to eat with me, why are you like this? No, you can't just leave it at that.
Zhang Bufan is not a normal person, he can't just forget it, it's not to find trouble with others, but to ......
Study the dish!
You say you're from the frontier and you're not used to eating Sichuan food, right? Then I'll study the frontier cuisine, and wait until you come next time to make it for you, and see if you can bring it to me again?
He never thought that people might not come at all in the future.
Anyway, since then, in addition to opening a store every day and continuing to sell Sichuan cuisine, Zhang Bufan has been studying frontier cuisine when he has spare time.
I have to say that he does have a talent for cooking, and in less than half a year, what are the oily meat noodles, Shawo large plate chicken, Chai Wopu spicy chicken, lamb tendon meat pilaf, naan, and grilled buns...... and so on the traditional food of the frontier, he can actually make it in a good way, if he changes the recipe of the restaurant to these, and then changes the name of the frontier restaurant, no one will feel strange.
Maybe the emperor lived up to his wishes, and not long after he mastered these frontier dishes, she actually came.
This time, like last time, it was to perform here in the capital, and the dancers of the companions changed a batch, and they actually ordered this small restaurant, and when they got to the place, they looked at the sign that seemed to be somewhat familiar, and the memories came to her heart, and she almost turned her head and left, but seeing that several companions around her were full of interest, she finally walked in with her.
He was pleasantly surprised to see her again, not because he saw a big beauty, but because he ...... The time has come to prove yourself.
There is still one dish per person, all Sichuan cuisine, however, when it was served, there was something more, in addition to the dishes they ordered, there was also a plate of oily meat noodles, and a small portion of a large plate of chicken. (Nonsense, just prove yourself, can you use it to do the whole thing? This doesn't charge money, isn't it your own loss?)
A few other people were still strange, he explained first, no, not an explanation, quite proud, "You came to eat last time, because you are from the frontier, you are not used to eating Sichuan cuisine, this time, well, frontier cuisine, this time will not be like last time, right?"
Several other people were curious, and asked the other one after another, "Yaya......, do you know each other?
She was speechless, last time? It was half a year ago, okay, if I hadn't seen the restaurant sign, I would have forgotten about it, you are a big man, why are you still thinking about it?
However, after all, she was not right when she said it last time, and she didn't say much, and people specially learned frontier cuisine for this matter, and they also "gave it away" for free, so they shouldn't say anything.
Eat it.
So, for a meal, I ate with a low brow and a sad ......
This time Zhang Bufan can't get by, last time like this, he explained that it was because the frontier people were not used to eating Sichuan food, so what about this time? How can I explain it? I have mixed noodles with oil and meat, but the frontier chef has tasted it, and everyone is full of praise!
So, he began to cross his nose and eyes again......
This meal was like this again, and this time, at the end of the checkout, there was no explanation or anything, so I just left.
Zhang Bufan was so angry, and at the same time had deep doubts about himself, is my cooking really not delicious? Everyone else compliments me? But it's not related to me, it's the relationship between the chef and the diner, why compliment me? In this way, you still disgust me!
I was upset, the door opened, and I looked up, oh, why did I come back again.
"That...... Sheet...... Boss Zhang, I'm really embarrassed. "This is coming back to apologize, and I even found out what my surname is.
"What's so embarrassing? It's a dereliction of our duty as a chef to fail to make the guests happy, so I should say I'm sorry. That's what I said, but the tone was hard.
"No, I really don't blame you, in fact, what you make is very delicious, it tastes the same as the noodles at my house, it's just ......" paused, as if holding back something, and then said, "I'm actually an actor, you know, to do my job, you have to make sure that your body is not out of shape, I've actually been losing weight, but the things you make are so delicious, that's why I'm like that." ”
"Lose weight? just ...... like you" Zhang Bufan swept her up and down twice, well, the visual inspection was no more than 90 pounds, "Still need to lose weight?"
"You don't understand. She shook her head, "It's not easy for me to get to where I am today, I can't ruin these because of my lack of restraint, I ......"
Suddenly, I couldn't go on, I covered my mouth with two little hands, and tears came down.
He didn't quite understand why she was crying at the time, but he didn't know why, watching her cry, he was a little distressed.
Well, actually, any man, the normal kind, is distressed to see such a beautiful big girl crying, and it is this kind of silent but heart-rending crying.
Then, subconsciously, he comforted, "Don't cry, it's a big deal, don't you just want to keep in shape and eat well, you look for me, I'll help you!"
Hey, hardcore consolation......
