Gu Youbei's face sank: "What are they discussing, can they make a decision for my father!"

"It's not them who dare to be bait, they can decide the wishes of others casually, and even decide the life and death of others!"

Gu Yiyi listened to their comings and goings in silence, and waited until everyone finished saying what they wanted to say before she spoke: "Second uncle, what do you think?"

Whether it is Gu Chengjia's shrewd temperament or his Gu family's identity, he will not easily fall for other people's ways, let alone refuse without erasing his face, so Gu Yiyi has this question.

Gu Chengjia smiled: "You still know me." ”

"I was thinking at the time, whether it was Zhu Datou or Yang Hongbo, they used to be people with their tails between their legs, why did they unite this time?"

"They didn't have much contact before, or they didn't know each other well, but of course that's what I saw from the symposium just now. ”

"What made the two of them, who didn't have much contact with each other, come together just a few days ago to deal with me?"

Gu Chengjia looked at Principal Zhai: "This symposium is not aimed at you, but at me, just to force me to comply!"

"And the reason why I gave you the same late notice is because they know that you have a good relationship with me, and they are worried that you will report to me in advance. ”

"But you're right, your chief of staff can't be used anymore. Whether he really took refuge in the other party, or was pinched and threatened to do this, this person could no longer stay by his side. ”

Principal Zhai nodded sullenly: "What you said makes sense. ”

Gu Chengjia moved his gaze to his little niece, and the depression and hidden anger that had existed in his chest after coming out of the conference room suddenly dissipated.

Just now, Zhuang Moxiang made a pot of tea and poured a cup for himself and Gu Yiyi. Gu Yiyi was sipping tea with a quiet face, and the faint fragrance of tea floating in the air made the whole living room feel a kind of Zen, which made people feel calm.

Gu Chengjia also poured a cup of tea by himself, took a sip, and the warmth rose: "If any of you want to drink tea, pour it yourself." ”

The fat man came out of the kitchen after finishing his work, and before he reached the living room, he shouted, "Xiaobei and Ah Peng came to help me serve food." ”

He entered the living room, sniffed twice, and stared at the teacup in Gu Yiyi's hand: "Yiyi, what kind of tea are you, can you let me taste it?"

Gu Yiyi used a gesture of please: "Homemade tea, do it yourself." ”

The fat man picked up the empty teacup from the coffee table, poured himself a cup of tea, took the cup and put it under his nose, closed his eyes and sniffed the tea, and then took a sip.

After a few sips, a small cup of tea was drunk: "Good tea!"

The fat man looked at Gu Yiyi with blazing eyes, and there was joy in his eyes.

Principal Zhai got up and said, "I have to go home, your sister-in-law is still waiting for me and my son to eat at home." ”

Gu Chengjia immediately said, "Eat with us, make a phone call and ask your sister-in-law to come over." ”

Principal Zhai was obviously hit by what happened just now: "No, to be honest, I don't have an appetite now, I have to think of countermeasures when I go home to deal with it." ”

Gu Chengjia saw that he was indeed bitter, so he stopped staying as guests, sent him and Zhai Xiaosi to the door, closed the door and returned to the living room.

On the dining table in the middle of the living room, six dishes and one soup have been placed: beautiful liver, stewed lion's head, crispy yellow cabbage, stewed raw knock, stir-fried dried reeds, honey lotus root, and chrysanthemum brain egg soup.

A few people sat down, Gu Chengjia thought that he had to deal with those with ulterior intentions all afternoon, and the children went swimming, but let the guests stay at home to make dinner, and said apologetically: "It's hard work, brother!"

A satisfied smile appeared on the fat man's face: "It's not hard, what about me, it's uncomfortable if I don't go into the kitchen for a few days." ”

"There are too few ingredients here, there are many delicious dishes that can't be cooked, and when you go to Ning City, I will cook authentic Jinling dishes for you!"

As soon as he said this, the smile on his face faded: "I forgot the current situation, won't you go to Ning City?"

Gu Yiyi said with a smile: "The second uncle may not be able to go, but I must go." I finally came out for a trip, and I'm afraid I won't be able to go out again for two or three years after I go back. ”

The fat man became happy again when he heard this: "Ning City is a famous food capital in ancient times, and I will not be disappointed if I go." ”

"Later, I will go to the capital to see you, and by the way, I will taste the court dishes there. ”

Gu Youbei looked at the dishes on the table that were obviously carefully cooked, swallowed his saliva, and sighed secretly: I heard that delicacies pay attention to color, fragrance, taste, shape, and meaning, but I don't agree with it at all. The food is good, it tastes good, at most it has a fragrance, where do you need so many flashy things!

But at this moment, he looked at the dish in front of him, and really realized that the shape and color of the dish were indeed pleasing to the eye, and could make him distinguish the chef's superiority at a glance.

Although judging the level of cooking skills by the shape and color of the dishes is very biased, Gu Youbei, as a layman, is justified in doing things outside!

None of the dishes in front of him used many expensive ingredients, but at a glance, he could tell that the dishes were exquisite and the cooking skills were exquisite, which made him have high expectations for tasting them.

Gu Yiyi helped shouting: "These dishes are all representative dishes in Jinling cuisine, although there are no precious ingredients, but the ordinary places see the real merit, Uncle Huo's cooking skills are not said, everyone eats with an open belly......"

The fat man grinned with his thick cheeks and smiled: "That's right, everyone eats with an open belly." I've taken into account the large amount of food in the north, and I use large deep bottom dishes and small pots for stews, hehe. ”

"I didn't expect there to be no ingredients here, but the tableware is quite complete. ”

Gu Chengjia put aside the unhappiness first, and couldn't let those "bed bugs" affect his life, so he ate with everyone.

Gu Yiyi first ate the stewed raw knock dish, and Gu Youbei had already heard that his little cousin was a senior foodie, so he also picked up a piece of eel meat.

Diao Peng is a local in the end: "Ah, stew!"

Gu Youbei asked while eating, "What, what is the stew?"

Then his eyes widened: "It's delicious! It melts in your mouth, it's very fresh! It's very fragrant!"

As a cook, you will be happy to listen to the praise of the vegetable eater, and the fat man is no exception, so he directly answered the question for him: "This dish is called stewed and knocked, and it has a history of three hundred years." As he spoke, he deliberately stretched out three fingers to signal.

"It is to kill the eel alive, clean the blood, remove the bones, flatten it on the cutting board, hit it with a wooden stick, after hundreds of times, knock it until the meat surface is hairy, the muscle fibers and meridian tissues of the eel are all knocked apart, and then fried in oil, and finally stewed. ”
