Chapter 128: Master's Teachings
Jing Guoliang looked at the smile on Chen Kai's face, took a deep breath, smelled the flavor in the spice bowl, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Since you are so confident, why don't we gamble again." ”
Chen Kai smiled and said, "Master, what do you want to bet on?"
Jing Guoliang showed a smile like an old naughty boy, and thought for a while: "If you fail to pass the test in one go this time, you will be punished for throwing the cast iron heavy pot for 4 hours." ”
Chen Kai nodded: "No problem, if you don't pass the test, you will be punished." ”
"And ......"
Jing Guoliang gasped for a moment when he spoke, and then added: "If your seasoning can pass at one time this time, hehe, as a reward......"
Speaking of this, Jing Guoliang suddenly glanced meaningfully at his granddaughter standing next to him, and the meaning conveyed by that expression was obvious.
"Huh?" Chen Kai and Jing Mengwei shouted at the same time, both with incredible expressions on their faces.
Jing Mengwei hurriedly complained: "Grandpa, what do you want!"
Chen Kai also looked confused: "Master, how can this kind of thing be taken to joke." ”
Jing Guoliang put on a serious look:
"Who said I was joking, you two are about the same age, and one is my granddaughter and the other is my little apprentice, I think it's good. ”
Jing Mengwei's face was almost red and could drip blood, she stomped her feet and said to Jing Guoliang angrily:
"Grandpa, you are too lenient, even if Brother Xiao Chen is about the same age as me, you can't make such jokes, not to mention, not to mention, Brother Xiao Chen should already have a sweetheart. ”
After speaking, a trace of melancholy flashed on Jing Mengwei's face.
Jing Guoliang was surprised at this time, turned his head and asked Chen Kai: "Is what Xiaowei said true?"
Chen Kai stood aside in a daze, looked at Jing Mengwei with a shy face, and then looked at the master with a puzzled face, and said with a wry smile: "Yes." ”
Jing Guoliang sensed the meaning of Chen Kai's words: "Oh, there really is! But what does your crying expression mean?"
Chen Kai said helplessly beside him: "Although I have ideas, I am always worried that it is my own wishful thinking, so I haven't confessed yet." ”
Jing Guoliang looked at his granddaughter, and then at Chen Kai, also with a look of regret:
"I see, since you have the ideal object, then my precious granddaughter can't go to you as a substitute, just now I didn't say it.
Hey, don't take it to heart, when you're old, sometimes it's easy to take a whim. ”
Jing Mengwei said with a flushed face next to her: "Brother Xiao Chen, don't care, I think grandpa just thinks I'm old, and wants to marry me off as soon as possible so that I can get rid of a burden." ”
Jing Guoliang looked stunned: "Where do you start, okay, I won't mention finding a partner in the future, whatever you want, even if you don't marry, I will never interfere, it's okay." ”
Jing Mengwei smiled lightly: "Hurry up and get down to business, this is the last bowl, you should go back to the hotel to rest after you finish tasting it." ”
Jing Guoliang suddenly showed a meaningful smile on his face: "Are you so sure that this is the last bowl?" ”
Chen Kai saw that Jing Mengwei was about to be ridiculed by the master again, and quickly returned to the topic: "Master, try it quickly, otherwise the effect of the hot oil will change again when it cools." ”
When Jing Guoliang heard this, his face turned straight, and his eyes turned back to the spicy seasoning sauce in front of him.
This time, instead of using chopsticks, Jing Guoliang took out a small spoon from the side, gently scooped out a shallow point in the seasoning bowl, and then slipped it in his mouth.
Chen Kai was also stunned when he saw his master taste it like this, and he was indescribably moved in his heart. Because tonight, in order to ensure the accuracy of the taste, Jing Guoliang tasted a drop of all the seasonings before with the tip of his tongue.
Now I took a small sip directly, although I could feel the fine taste of this bowl of spices more deeply.
But in the same way, the stimulation of the spicy sauce will also make it impossible for Master to taste the next one in a short time.
This shows that Jing Guoliang has complete trust in himself.
Jing Guoliang closed his eyes, tasted them carefully, and after a while, opened his eyes with a serious expression.
Jing Mengwei asked nervously beside her, "Grandpa...... You're talking. ”
didn't say anything to his granddaughter, Jing Guoliang turned his head and asked Chen Kai: "Tell me, how many points have you made in this bowl of spicy seasoning?"
Chen Kai's expression was serious, and he thought carefully and replied: "The main hemp is fragrant, the second fresh and spicy, supplemented by hot and salty, and the five flavors are blended." ”
When Jing Guoliang heard Chen Kai say this, a shallow smile slowly appeared in his serious expression: "Now, in my eyes, you are already a qualified laxavans." ”
Jing Mengwei hurriedly said beside her: "Grandpa, Brother Xiao Chen cooks so well, how can you say that he can be a lotus worker." ”
Chen Kai smiled slightly: "Thank you Master for complimenting." ”
Jing Guoliang nodded, and said to Jing Mengwei next to him with a gratifying face: "Xiaowei, although Dahe is a handyman among the chefs of the red case, if you want to be outstanding, it is not easy.
A skilled handsome is not only responsible for marinating, starching, and cooking the ingredients cut on the cutting board, cooking them in the oven, but also assisting the chef in the creation of dishes.
This kind of work requires a skilled all-round chef to be competent.
Chen Kai's training in knife skills, spoon skills, and proficiency has been very good before, and now he can go further in seasoning, what he needs in the future is continuous practice and tempering. ”
After finishing speaking, Jing Guoliang asked Chen Kai to come to him, and explained to him the methods and key points of the next self-training, Chen Kai listened carefully beside him, and kept nodding, and Jing Mengwei didn't dare to disturb.
After more than half an hour, Jing Guoliang let out a sigh of relief, smiled and said:
"Alright, that's all I have to say, I'm sleepy, let's go back to the hotel. ”
After speaking, Jing Guoliang stood up, showing a tired look.
Chen Kai hurriedly said, "Master, how many days are you going to stay in Ninggang?"
Jing Guoliang blinked, and his face showed reluctance: "I will leave early tomorrow morning, and you won't come to send it." ”
"Master, I haven't been with you for a few more days, don't be in a hurry to go back to Sichuan!" Chen Kai's heart was sour, and his face was anxious.
Jing Guoliang waved his hand: "There are still serious things waiting for me to do in Chuandu, even if I come to Ninggang this time, even if I am distracted, I can see that you can take charge alone, I am also relieved."
You have to go out of business every day, don't bother with me, do what you have to do. ”
Chen Kai knew that the master was kind on the surface but was actually stubborn on the inside, and since he said that he wanted to leave, it would not work to stay.
Looking at the master's kind face, Chen Kai suddenly felt a little sour in his heart, but he couldn't bear it and didn't show his emotions.
Jing Mengwei also had a look of regret on her face, and said to Jing Guoliang: "Grandpa, when can we come to Ninggang again?"
A hint of cunning flashed on Jing Guoliang's face: "If you want to come, you can come by yourself." ”
Jing Mengwei's face turned red, and she suddenly asked suspiciously: "By the way, you haven't said whether Brother Xiao Chen's spicy seasoning has passed!"
Jing Guoliang laughed, didn't answer, and walked out of the door with his head held high, and Chen Kai hurriedly sent his master out.
Before leaving, Chen Kai and Jing Mengwei added one to each other; "Master, take care of your body!" Chen Kai stood at the door of the store and shouted at Jing Guoliang's back.
Jing Guoliang waved his hand, Jing Mengwei next to him looked back several times, and got into the taxi with his grandfather.
Chen Kai looked at the distant car shadow at the door of the store, and his heart was mixed, although it is common for people to meet and leave in their lives, memory will always remind which important people are.
Ding Yuan finished delivering supper next to him and walked to Chen Kai with a stainless steel plate.
"Huh, old man, is he leaving?"
Chen Kai nodded: "Let's go, I'll go back to Sichuan tomorrow." ”
"In such a hurry?"
Chen Kai shook his head helplessly: "Master always comes and goes so chicly, is it true that the elderly are like this? ”
Ding Yuan shrugged his shoulders beside him: "Maybe the old man has something important to do back to do." ”
Chen Kai sighed lightly and said slowly, "We'll meet again." ”
