Extra 2: Xia Xia Chapter (1)
Xu Cheng's article is tantamount to dropping a bomb on a calm lake that is about to explode, causing a storm in an instant. For a while, the entire culinary circle was talking about Xu Cheng's behavior, of course, the direction of everyone's discussion was good, and they were even full of expectations.
Decades ago, Xu Cheng's search and exploration of the world's cuisine gave chefs from all over the world a chance to make a name for themselves. Whether it is a state banquet or a few cents and a few snacks on the street, as long as you can board "Zhiwei", you can be well-known by food lovers from all over the world, and there are fanatical fans of Xu Cheng, who are willing to travel thousands of miles to trek through mountains and rivers, or go by train or car just to taste the delicious food on "Zhiwei".
Decades have passed, and the first batch of chefs who appeared on "Zhiwei" are basically old, many of them have retired, and many new blood has emerged in the culinary circle. Over the years, many young chefs with no background regret that they were born in the wrong era, and if they had been born decades earlier, Xu Cheng found that the future would be very different.
Now their chance has come.
Xu Cheng has become the Xu Cheng he once was, and it is their business whether they can seize the opportunity to make a name for themselves like those predecessors decades ago.
But none of this has anything to do with Jiang Feng.
He was setting up the site for the annual meeting.
Red banners, red ribbons, various red ornaments. I knew that this was arranging the annual meeting site, and I didn't know that I thought it was arranging the wedding scene.
As for the book "Zhiwei" that Jiang Feng brought to Taifeng Lou is now in Wang Xiulian's hands, looking at Comrade Wang Xiulian's reading attitude that he can't put down the volume, Jiang Feng feels that this article will appear on the graves of the ancestors of the Wang family nine times out of ten this year.
"Feng Feng, we have bought all the fruits, do you see if this fruit bowl is loaded by the two of us or by me and Xia Xia?" Also getting up early in the morning were Wu Minqi, Ji Xia, Ji Xue and Ji Yue, everyone had their own division of labor.
"You and Xia Xia go and pretend, I have to hang a lot of red lanterns here." Jiang Feng looked at the red lantern in his hand helplessly, and was very suspicious that this lantern was left over from the decoration of Taifeng Building during the Chinese New Year last year.
"Okay, then Xia Xia and I will go and fill the fruit plate. Let's go, Xia Xia, let's go and fill the fruit plate, eat your favorite first and don't leave it for them. Wu Minqi said with a smile.
In the past, if Wu Minqi said such things to Xia Xia, even if Xia Xia knew very well that this was a joke, she would still nod her head happily, and then follow Wu Minqi with a happy face like a little tail carrying fruit.
But now Xia Xia didn't seem very happy, just nodded lightly, and followed Wu Minqi as if she was accepting the homework assigned by the teacher.
Xia Xia was a little unhappy, to be precise, she was not very happy during this time.
Jiang Feng found out that there was something wrong with his emotions two or three days after the final, at first he thought that it was because Granny Ji returned to Guangdong Province, and Xia Xia was not in good spirits because she was separated from her mother-in-law, and she had been listless.
But now it seems that it is clearly not because of this.
Jiang Feng asked Ji Xue yesterday, and the two of them bought a train back to Guangdong Province this afternoon, and they are expected to arrive home tomorrow morning. It stands to reason that if Xia Xia misses her mother-in-law, she should be very happy to be able to go home today.
Jiang Feng looked at Xia Xia's back, and felt that it was really because the child was older and his heart was complicated, and he began to have something on his mind not to tell his master and sister. Jiang Feng found that compared to Xia Xia, who had something to hide in his heart now, he still preferred the original Xia Xia who was heartless, happy and silly, and wrote his discomfort on his face when he was unhappy.
"Master!"
Just when Jiang Feng had hung up all the lanterns and was about to find a place to fish and be lazy. His No. 2 little apprentice, although he had not yet held an apprenticeship banquet, Zhang Qian, who had changed his tune, ran in from the door carrying a large bag of candy.
Zhang Qian's final exams have long ended, and her classmates in the dormitory have also gone home for the New Year, leaving her alone and still working in the dormitory to work in Taifeng Building every day and waiting for the annual meeting. On the day of the competition, Zhang Qian couldn't go because she had an exam, but according to her, she watched the live broadcast as soon as the exam ended, and she also posted a barrage when Jiang Feng won the championship.
"Master, do you know what I saw when I passed by the newsstand today?" Zhang Qian excitedly pulled out a brand new copy of "Zhiwei" from the candy bag, "You are on "Zhiwei" again!"
"I've seen it. Jiang Feng said with a smile. There is no mistake
"Ahh Zhang Qian thought that she had brought Jiang Feng a surprise, but she didn't expect Jiang Feng to finish reading it a long time ago.
"By the way, have you discussed the matter of apprenticeship with your parents?" Because the store was too busy before, Jiang Feng had no time to mention this matter to Zhang Qian, but now that the annual meeting has arrived, it will be a long holiday soon, and he has plenty of time to deal with the things that he has not dealt with before.
"Not yet, but I let my parents watch the live broadcast of your finals. Zhang Qian looked happy and shook the "Zhiwei" in her hand, "Plus this "Zhiwei", my parents will definitely agree!"
"After watching your live broadcast before, my dad told me that if anyone can be lucky enough to worship you as a teacher in the future, it will definitely be green smoke on the ancestral grave. ”
"What nonsense? Jiang Feng couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
After getting along for a period of time, he also found out that Zhang Qian may have been in real contact with the outside world for the first time when she just went to college, she is a little self-indulgent, and her personality is very jumpy, as long as she is familiar with it, she dares to say anything.
"Then I'm going to help. Zhang Qian is very conscious, and she is very conscious of the obligation of Taifeng Building employees to work for the capitalists.
"You go to the kitchen to help Kiki and Xia Xia divide the fruit plate, I see they bought a lot of fruit, and it will take some time to deal with it. Jiang Feng said, seeing Zhang Qian turn around and about to go to the kitchen, he immediately stopped her, "Wait, have you noticed that something seems to be wrong with Xia Xia recently?"
"Something is not right?" Zhang Qian thought for a moment, "Master, do you mean senior sister, she seems to be a little afraid of me?"
Jiang Feng: ?
Xia Xia was afraid of Zhang Qian???
Jiang Feng looked at Zhang Qian from head to toe, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't feel that Zhang Qian, who didn't have a lot of strength and even needed to practice basic skills, looked like he could win against Xia Xia, a bad girl before.
"She's afraid of you?" Jiang Feng looked surprised.
Zhang Qian nodded: "I don't know if that's scared, but I always feel that my senior sister seems to be avoiding me a little." ”
"How?"
"Didn't you tell me before, Master, that the basic skills of knife work and seasoning are not very solid, so I have time to tell me often? I can't find a chance to tell me at all, Senior Sister feels like she is deliberately avoiding me every time she cuts vegetables and kneads dough, and she is very far away from me, and she sits far away from me when she eats. ”
"I could feel that she wasn't hating me, but she was just avoiding me. Zhang Qian was also a little distressed, "Senior sister doesn't think I'm younger than her, so I don't feel embarrassed." ”
Jiang Feng was really surprised at this time, he had always thought that Xia Xia liked Zhang Qian very much. At the beginning, when he was hesitant to accept Zhang Qian as an apprentice, Xia Xia's performance was very proactive and even excited.
Zhang Qian said this, he really didn't notice it before.
"Maybe I'm not used to it, it's okay, I'll have a New Year's holiday soon, and I'll take a look when I come back from the holiday." Xia Xia's personality is a little awkward sometimes, so it's good to spend more time running in. Since she's hiding from you a little now, then don't divide the fruit plate yet, go and help lay the tablecloth, and wait a while that big table is going to be drawn. ”
"Good. Zhang Qian nodded.
What Jiang Feng didn't know was that his eldest apprentice and second apprentice would not have a chance to run in until many years later.
Because Xia Xia did not return to Taifeng Building after the New Year.
