Chapter 866: The Road to the Lantern Festival (Part II)
The next day, Xia Yu arrived as promised.
"That's about it. ”
Looking at the text message on his mobile phone, the content is nothing more than welcoming him to visit with a detailed address.
This is a prosperous neighborhood that is not inferior to the surrounding Juxialou, and if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find restaurants and snack bars along the street, and the signboards are mostly written with the word Liu, such as Liu San Bun Shop, Liu Si Leng Rabbit.
There is no doubt that this is the food commercial street where the chefs of the descendants of the Liu family gather.
Xia Yu stood in front of a porridge noodle restaurant.
Look up at the sign, "Full of incense?"
The time was in the morning, it was time to go to work and school, and the business of the small restaurant was booming, this time Xia Yu rarely let go of his daily practice temporarily in the morning and chose to go out to visit alone, which shows the importance he attaches to the alternate big disciple.
Just like Xia Yu said to Zhu Qing yesterday, he was definitely not just playing
When I entered the store, I found an empty table and sat down, and a young voice greeted me: "Hello, this guest, the menu is on the table, look at what you want to eat......
Liu Feng came over with a notebook and a ballpoint pen.
The words stopped abruptly.
A single teenager of the same age, who was at the table, looked at him with a smile.
"Serve me a full set of signature food. Xia Yu said.
"Y-Wait!"
Liu Feng stammered, and staggered away under the surprised eyes of the customers in the store.
Xia Yu lowered his head and pulled the mask on, so the guests could only point and whisper to the young man wearing the mask.
The restaurant kitchen is open-plan, with a window and a pick-up table, so guests can stand inside the restaurant and have a panoramic view of the kitchen. Surprisingly, there was only one charming female chef busy in the kitchen, and the restaurant was almost full, but the cooking and serving seemed to be in order, and there was no sound of complaining at all.
After a while, Liu Feng brought a bowl of porridge and a bowl of noodles, "This is my mother's signature dish, you can try it!"
Sensing a glance at the window, Xia Yu looked over and met the eyes of the female chef.
Nodding and greeting each other.
"That should be Liu Ying's mother. ”
Xia Yuxin said.
Mother Liu should know his identity, and in her eyes, in addition to looking, there is more surprise and respect, but this female chef is different from her son who has lost her calm, and has the wisdom and calmness of handling things.
She chose to greet the guests in the kitchen instead of leaving the kitchen when the guests were busy, which also shows her respect for other guests. This is the professional attitude of a seasoned chef.
It wasn't until the morning that the flow of customers passed, the small restaurant became deserted, and when only Xia Yu's table was left, Liu's mother came out.
"What's the matter, are you still satisfied with our Manxiangtang's signature porridge noodles?"
Soft tone, as soon as you hear the voice, you know that she is a qualified mother.
On the table were two large porcelain bowls that had been left empty.
"Very satisfied!"
Xia Yu was very full, so he sat and waited with a smile, and he didn't urge.
Liu Mu smiled, "It's good to be satisfied." ”
"By the way, Sakura's business ......" She changed her words, but she hesitated after speaking, as if she was ashamed to say something, but after all, it was a mother, she took a breath and boldly asked, "Do you have a crush on Sakura?"
The eyes that were still wise in the kitchen looked at Xia Yu fixedly, and they lost their cool with violent fluctuations.
I'm afraid that any parent in the industry who knows that the dignified Xia Demon King has taken a fancy to his children is probably a similar performance.
“……”
"That, can you change the word?" Xia Yu rubbed his temples in distress.
Mother Liu was stunned, seeing the embarrassment on Xia Yu's face, she repeated her words just now in a low voice, and a smile suddenly appeared in her eyes, "Oh, it's not that you like it, it's in the picture." ”
"Don't!"
Xia Yu always felt that the meaning of the words in the picture was more subtle than the one he seemed, which made him feel like he had come to the door to ask for relatives, and coughed, "Aunt Liu, I'll just say it directly, I intend to accept Sakura into the door, but I am not a formal disciple, in my opinion, I plan to let her hang up her name first." ”
Mother Liu had surprise on her face, and then disappointed.
Just a nominal disciple?
This status is similar to an apprentice, not a disciple who can inherit the mantle of the master.
Mother Liu did not doubt Xia Yu's qualifications to serve as Liu Ying's master because Xia Yu was young and the same age as her son.
The new king of the Chinese world, the undoubted king of the young generation, and a real chef......
This qualification is enough to become a famous teacher, if Xia Yu releases the news that he intends to accept apprentices, there are many disciples in the world who sharpen their heads and want to drill under his Xia Demon King Sect.
"Sakura-chan thanks to your love, I thank you for her first, it's just ......"
Liu's mother swallowed.
"What?" Xia Yu was surprised, "Sakura's qualifications, I think they are excellent, Aunt Liu disagrees?"
"No, it's not!" Mother Liu smiled bitterly, and simply made her words clear, "Sakura is very afraid of people, and she has been like this since she was a child." She is precocious, but she also locks herself at home for many years and does not go out, and I, as a mother, can't move her at all. ”
"I think Sakura is flawed in terms of basic qualities as a chef, and it is a flaw in personality that is difficult to change. ”
Liu's mother had bitterness and helplessness written on her face.
Xia Yu frowned slightly when he heard this.
Isn't it just a house, but the house is too much, the personality is distorted, and maybe I'm afraid of going out to see outsiders, which is a problem.
is like Yuanyue's Tian Sumi, although she is a country girl, easy to be shy and nervous, but she can finally stand on the stage of any kind of cooking duel with her chest up, and show her color in front of everyone.
Then, after all, the chef has to deal with all kinds of customers, and he can refuse to communicate too much with the guests, but he must not be afraid of life.
"Serious?"
Xia Yu raised his eyebrows, as if asking in confirmation.
Liu Mu and Liu Feng both nodded.
"But yesterday ......"
Hearing this, Liu Feng hurriedly explained: "That is the fixed date of the battle between Sakura and Uncle Liu Lan every month, and she only has this time to go out. ”
At the same time, a voice came from outside the door:
"I also wanted Sakura to go out more, so I agreed to her unreasonable appointment. ”
Ju went downstairs to Liu Lan, the contemporary proprietor, and walked into the small restaurant.
He put a delicate wooden food box on the dining table and nodded to Mother Liu, "Brother and sister, this is the rice cake distributed by the master's family, I will bring it to you by the way." ”
Mother Liu said: "It's troublesome big brother." ”
"Brother Yun asked me to take care of you more before he died, as it should be. Liu Lan's honest face had a hint of a smile.
Xia Yu suddenly got up and said to Liu Feng, "Take me to see Sakura first." ”
Walk to the front of a house.
At the door, I faintly heard movement in the courtyard.
"Knock knock!"
Mother Liu knocked on the door, "Sakura-chan, Mr. Xia has come to see you." ”
"Bang-"
There was the screeching sound of metal objects falling to the ground, accompanied by an ouch exclaiming, "Wait!
Xia Yu could hear a series of light footsteps quickly approaching the door, but disappeared at the door.
Just across a door.,Obviously, Lori put her hand on the door lock.,Ready to open.,But there's no next action.。
The air froze.
