Chapter 499: Cooking Yourself
Yao Jun's performance made Tao Fanghua look down on him, you must know that other men, even those born in big families, do not have Yao Jun's calmness and bearing.
At this time, a maid came over and said respectfully to Xiao Tao's grandfather: "Master, I have prepared all the ingredients you ordered for you, and now they are all in the kitchen, and the chef asked you to ask you, why did you start cooking?"
"Okay, you tell Lao Zhao, I'll go over, hahaha, you are all stained with the light today, I haven't seen this granddaughter for nearly ten years, today I am happy, I specially prepared a reception banquet for her, make a few good dishes, you will have a good mouth today, you are young, today you have to try your grandfather's craft." The old man said, stood up, and walked towards the kitchen.
"Dad, I'll go to the kitchen and give you a hand. When the second aunt heard the old man's words, she immediately put on a flattering look, and also stood up and walked in the direction of the kitchen.
"My grandfather used to be born in the cooking class of the army, and then although he went to the artillery battalion, after retiring from the army, although his career is getting bigger and bigger, but he does not forget his roots, in the past, during the New Year's holidays, he will personally cook a few dishes, but in recent years, grandpa has cooked less often, the last time I ate the dishes cooked by my grandfather, it was two years ago......" Tao Fanghua's eyes flashed a little nostalgic, and he swallowed a mouthful of liquid gently, obviously, the old man should really have a hand in cooking," Yao Jun, the first time you came to our house, you were able to eat the food cooked by your grandfather, what a blessing. ”
"It's my pleasure. Yao Jun smiled and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Okay, now that Dad is cooking, let's go to the restaurant and wait for dinner. At this time, Tao Jianjun, the eldest uncle of the eldest son in the family, beckoned everyone to the restaurant.
When a group of people walked to the restaurant, Yao Jun, who was standing at the back, subconsciously glanced at Xiao Tao and her mother, both mother and daughter lowered their heads and did not speak, they should have their own knots.
Yao Junjue was a little strange, how could it be that except for Xiao Tao's second aunt who mentioned Wang Zhongzheng and ridiculed him, no one else talked about him, even Xiao Tao's mother didn't talk about his situation, Xiao Tao's previous news of going to the United States, they also knew, and on the phone, Xiao Tao's mother didn't ask about his situation.
Xiao Tao's eldest brother Wang Yangyang lived in San Francisco, USA, for a period of time, Xiao Tao's father Wang Zhongzheng's feelings for his wife, Yao Jun saw it, but in Xiao Tao's mother, it seemed a little bland.
However, Yao Jun is not suitable to ask too much, and he knows that even if he doesn't ask, Xiao Tao will ask.
The Tao family is a big family, paying attention to pomp and rules, and eating is no exception.
The position of eating and sitting must be exquisite, Yao Jun knows this, so he did not take the lead in taking a seat, but waited for everyone else to do it before he found a place to sit down.
The dining table is a long oval, the eldest uncle Tao Jianjun and the second uncle Tao Jiandang took the lead in sitting on both sides, while the eldest aunt Liang Fangfang sat first under Tao Jianjun, then Xiao Tao's mother Tao Yajun, then Tao Fanghua, then Xiao Tao, and finally Yao Jun.
The first place under the second uncle Tao to build the party is naturally the second aunt Zhang Xiaoxiao who is sitting on Xiao Tao, of course, the position is vacant now, she should go to the kitchen to give the old man a hand, and then behind her are their two sons, and Wang Bo actually has a position, sitting under Tao Weimin.
Whether it is a servant, a bodyguard or a driver, these are all in an employment relationship with the host's family, and generally do not go to the table to dine with the master of the family, not only because of the rules of the big family, the larger the family, the more sumptuous the three meals prepared for the servants, of course, it must not be compared with the host's own food, sometimes a meal down, the maids may not have the money to eat even if they work for ten years, and Wang Bo can be on the table, it can be seen that this Wang Bo's status in the Tao family is very unusual.
The main seat in the center of the dining table was empty, so it was naturally reserved for the old man to sit.
Yao Jun's generosity made the second uncle's family who wanted to see his jokes a little unhappy, they originally thought that Yao Jun would sit in a random position and make a big joke, but they didn't expect that he would wait for everyone to move in before choosing a place to sit down, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Yao Jun didn't really want Zhang Xiaoxiao to help, her hands didn't know how many layers of hand cream and various other skin care products she had smeared, and he didn't want to eat some chemical raw materials in his stomach.
And Zhang Xiaoxiao did nail art, the nails are very long, and they are inlaid with small diamonds, Yao Jun doesn't know whether those diamonds are real or fake, but he thinks that such a woman should not know how to cook.
Everyone sat down at the table, and the second uncle's family couldn't stay idle, and began to pull others to chat, and after chatting for about half an hour, they saw the old man come over with a smile on his face.
Cooking takes a long time, of course, these times are actually spent washing and choosing vegetables, if you omit this step, cooking is very fast.
The old man stood straight, walking in a hurry, followed by several servants, each with a tray in his hand, and several dishes in each tray.
"Haha, I just made two dishes, the others are made by Lao Zhao, I will test you later, after eating, you have to say which two dishes I made, Xiaoxiao, you are watching the dishes I made, you are not allowed to remind me later, you know?" The old man turned his head to Zhang Xiaoxiao and said.
"Yes, Dad, I won't say that. Zhang Xiaoxiao covered his mouth and chuckled, Yao Jun paid attention to her hands, the hand cream was still there, and the diamonds on her nails did not fall off at all, he didn't understand, what did this Zhang Xiaoxiao do to help in the kitchen.
"Grandpa is very happy every time he finishes cooking, which is a very fulfilling thing for him, even if he makes a lot of money in business, he is not so happy. Tao Fanghua whispered to Yao Jun and Xiao Tao, and after speaking, she pursed her lips with a wry smile on her face.
Yao Jun and Xiao Tao nodded, indicating that they understood, Xiao Tao had such a memory in his mind, with a bit of memory in his eyes, but Yao Jun found out that Tao Fanghua was wrong, it stands to reason that the old man's cooking skills should be good, after all, everyone is looking forward to it, and they have also said that they are going to have a good mouth, why does Tao Fanghua's interest not seem to be high?
After glancing at the other people at the table a little, Yao Jun found that everyone sitting was smiling bitterly, which made Yao Jun's heart even more strange.
At this time, Tao Fanghua explained in a low voice: "Grandpa likes this trick the most, he will make a few dishes, and then mix those dishes with the dishes made by other chefs, and then let everyone guess which dishes are made by him, the dishes made by grandpa and Chef Zhao are delicious, it is basically difficult to guess, grandpa always says that we are not attentive enough." ”
As she spoke, Tao Fanghua pursed her lips and said helplessly, "Grandpa and Chef Zhao are very delicious, so I just care about eating...... Remember to tell the difference there!"
