The reason why Jiang Feng asked Ji Xue to make fish balls and Ji Xia to roll the noodles was because the dinner he prepared for Ji Xia's mother-in-law today was very simple - a bowl of thick noodles with fish balls in clear soup.

The soul of this bowl of clear soup and fish ball thick noodles is naturally the same clear soup he used to make chicken bean curd, so that Jiang Feng can not only show his culinary talent, but also let Ji Xia's mother-in-law taste Ji Xue and Ji Xia's excellent craftsmanship.

Ji Xia is now a skilled noodle maker, and if he works hard to weigh the dragon beard noodles regardless of the quality, he can make a bowl of strong and refreshing thick noodles.

Taking advantage of Jiang Feng's cooking skills, Ji Xia surrounded Jiang Feng and kept asking about Zhang Qian's apprenticeship.

"Master, would you say that sister was an apprentice just now?"

"Xia Xia, do you want me to take her as an apprentice?" Jiang Feng asked rhetorically.

"I don't know. Ji Xia didn't know Zhang Qian at all, she just wanted to be a senior sister, "But I think it's good for the master to accept a few more junior brothers and sisters for me, in this case, I will be the senior sister, I can teach them knife skills, I can also teach them dough, shortbread and fresh meat mooncakes I can also teach!"

Ji Xia's fresh meat mooncakes are not bad now, although they are far less than Zheng Siyuan's, but they are also delicious fresh meat mooncakes.

"Bring the colander over there. Jiang Feng pointed to the shelf in front of him, "I'm afraid Xia Xia, you won't have a chance to teach your future junior brothers and sisters how to make noodles, shortbread and fresh meat mooncakes." ”

"Why?" Ji Xia was puzzled.

"Because Xia Xia, you are different from them, you are learning the white case, and they are learning the red case. Jiang Feng explained.

He is not going to accept any more talented white case disciples who are mistaken people, Jiang Feng is now very clear even if he wants to accept apprentices, it must be a red case, a pure red case, and the limit of deviation is porridge.

Ji Xia nodded, didn't care when he understood, and continued to ask: "Master, you haven't said whether you will accept today's sister." ”

"I don't know. Jiang Feng took the colander from Ji Xia's hand and fished out the noodles, "It depends on the situation, that sister will come to the store to help in the next few days, and whether you accept it or not depends on that sister's performance in the past few days." ”

Ji Xia understood with a look on his face: "I know, just like Master, you tested me before accepting me, there is a standard for accepting apprentices, and you have to go through the test before you can accept it, right?"

"Yes. Jiang Feng nodded, turned his head and shouted at Ji Xue by the other stove, "Ji Xue, are your fish balls over there ready?"

"It's coming. Ji Xue shouted back.

Jiang Feng began to plate the noodles, and the two spinachs were concave by him, and Ji Xue's fish balls instantly became double dragon play beads as soon as they were put on the net, but there were a lot of beads in this double dragon play.

"Xia Xia, you can bring the noodles out to your mother-in-law. Ji Xue said with a smile, giving Ji Xia the opportunity to end the noodles.

Ji Xia happily trotted out with her noodles, and Ji Xue followed.

Jiang Feng still had a few dishes in the back kitchen, and he was busy for almost twenty minutes before finishing today's work, going out to change his clothes and then going to the lobby to find Ji Xia's mother-in-law.

The thick noodles of the fish balls have been eaten, and they are so clean that there is no soup left.

When Jiang Feng went, Ji Xia was talking to her mother-in-law, and she seemed to be saying something happy Ji Xia even laughed out loud. Ji Xue was also full of smiles in her eyes, and Ji Xia's mother-in-law was even more smiling, looking very kind, and the old lady who was worried about Jiang Feng at first sight was like two people.

Seeing Jiang Feng coming, Ji Xue hurriedly sat down in a place to make room for Jiang Feng, but Jiang Feng did not sit down.

"Ji Xue, Xia Xia, I want to talk to your mother-in-law alone, okay?" Jiang Feng said.

Ji Xia didn't think much about getting up directly, but Ji Xue was stunned for a moment, quickly nodded in agreement, and pulled Ji Xia to help in the back kitchen.

"Hello, if you don't mind, I'll call you mother-in-law like Xia Xia. Jiang Feng sat opposite Ji Xia's mother-in-law.

"It's not a mess of generations, but you young people don't care about this, you can call it whatever you want. By the way, this is the glove I knitted for you, the style is old but warm. I heard Xia Xia say that you all walk to and from work in winter, although the distance is not far, but it is so cold in Beiping that you don't wear gloves will definitely freeze your hands. You have to take good care of your hands as chefs, I hope you won't dislike it. "Granny Ji Xia is indeed a very kind old man, as long as she opens her mouth, she will know that her face is completely inconsistent with people.

"Of course I don't dislike it, how can such a thoughtful gift be disliked?" Jiang Feng took the gloves and looked at them carefully, and pinched them with his hand, they were indeed very thick and very comfortable to touch, and the person who knitted the gloves was obviously very attentive.

"Xia Xia has been taking care of you for more than a year. This child is something I watched grow up, and I am sensible when I say that I am sensible, and I am really ignorant when I say that I am not sensible, and I have been most worried about Xia Xia among these children for so many years. If Xia Xia hadn't worshiped a good master like you, her life might have been ruined like this. ”

"Don't say that, I believe that Xia Xia will not be ruined in her life whether she worships me as a teacher or not, she is a good child and will not take the wrong path, but sometimes the road is not so smooth. Jiang Feng hurriedly said.

Ji Xia's mother-in-law was stunned, showed her face randomly, smiled from the bottom of her heart, and nodded her head: "Yes, she is a good child, and she has always been a good child." ”

After the basic politeness, Jiang Feng told Ji Xia's mother-in-law all the questions he had thought about last night and discussed with Wu Minqi about Ji Xia's future development.

The more Granny Ji Xia listened, the more serious her expression became, and her smile disappeared completely, if she didn't know her, I was afraid that she would think that this old lady was a little unhappy now.

"So, the best thing to do now is to let Xia Xia go to the one you said, that ......"

"Knowing the taste. ”

"Yes, is it okay to go to Zhiweiju to learn art?" asked Granny Ji Xia.

Jiang Feng nodded: "This is the best choice." Zhiweiju is now the best restaurant specializing in white cases in China, and the top white case chefs in the country are basically in Zhiweiju. If there are also Zheng Siyuan and Zheng Da, Zheng Da has taught Xia Xia before, but it is clear that he is not willing to spend time on teaching apprentices. Zheng Siyuan: I actually asked, he didn't mind, but he told me very clearly that he had never taken an apprentice, and he had no experience and would not teach. ”

"In fact, both Zheng Da and Zheng Siyuan have limitations, but Zhiweiju does not, Zhiweiju has many white case masters, if Xia Xia can go to Zhiweiju, he can receive the most systematic and comprehensive white case cooking guidance. As long as we come forward to know that Weiju will sell us this face, even if it is not to give us money, we will not deliberately make it difficult. ”

Granny Ji Xia frowned: "But Xia Xia doesn't want to." ”

Jiang Feng nodded again helplessly: "Yes, the biggest problem now is that Xia Xia is unwilling." For Xia Xia, Zhiweiju is a completely unfamiliar environment, she likes it here and likes Beiping, if she wants to go to Zhiweiju, it will be eight or nine years or less, no relatives, no friends. Although Xia Xia is about to turn seventeen, many times she still feels like a junior high school student and a child. If someone in junior high school told me to leave home and go to a completely unfamiliar place for years, even if I was told that it was all for my own good, I would probably not want to. ”

"We have all seen the changes in Xia Xia this year, we all like her very much, and we don't want to force her to help her make decisions. In fact, she doesn't necessarily have to go to Yongheju, but that's the best. If Xia Xia really doesn't want to go, I can also find a way to invite a white case master from other places who is not so top to work in Taifeng Building, so that Xia Xia can continue to learn art in Taifeng Building, but it's a pity to waste her talent. ”

"She is a genius, you may not feel it, but she is really very talented in the white case, not an ordinary talent, a genius in a million, the kind that no one in the country and even the world can surpass. It is precisely because Xia Xia's talent is so good that we will feel a pity if she can't receive the best teaching. Jiang Feng was also helpless, "I don't want to force her, but I also want to help her make this decision." ”

"I can't tell which idea is right and which is wrong. You are Xia Xia's mother-in-law, and I believe you know her very well, so I would like to ask for your advice. ”

Granny Ji Xia's eyes were red.

Rubbing the corners of her eyes with her hand, Granny Ji Xia smiled apologetically for her gaffe: "I'm sorry, I'm just happy for Xia Xia." ”

"After so many years, you were the first to ask me...... The first person to think about Xia Xia with such sincere feelings. Granny Ji Xia said and spoke, her voice was a little choked.

"Is Xia Xia really that talented?"

"Really. Jiang Feng nodded affirmatively, "None of us have ever seen a more talented white case chef than her." ”

"Is it in a hurry now? I mean, I have to let her ...... in a few days."

"No, I don't. Jiang Feng shook his head, "There is still time, it should be delayed for another half a year, and we are actually thinking about whether there is a better way to get the best of both worlds." ”

"There are so many good things in this world, and the good things in the world can't be taken up by her alone. Granny Ji Xia shook her head with a smile, "That's it, I'll give it a try and give Xia Xia a little more time." ”

"I'm sure she'll be responsible to you and to herself. ”
