6. Gastronomy Specialist
"Buzz, buzz, ......"
Before the food was eaten in his mouth, the mobile phone in Yan Shu's pocket suddenly vibrated sound.
Helplessly, Yan Shu put down his chopsticks, connected the phone, and looked at Chen Chen.
"Hello?"
Yan Shu's brows gradually tightened, and when he called in the middle of the night, he knew that something important was going on without asking, and Chen Chen was also anxious to follow aside.
"I'll be right here." Yan Shu stood up suddenly, and the sleeve of his left hand accidentally touched the chopsticks placed on the bowl, and suddenly, the back kitchen was occupied by a crackling crisp sound.
"Mr. Yan, is something wrong?" Chen Chen asked with concern.
Yan Shu had just received an urgent notice from his hospitalized mother, and he didn't have time to meet Chen Chen's questioning, so he turned around and left.
"Mr. Yan? Is there anything I can help with? ”
"No need."
Yan Shu disappeared outside the door of the operation room without looking back, and the supper made by Chen Chen was still sitting there motionlessly.
There's no way, Yan Shu is gone, he will eat it himself, anyway, it's all made, as long as it's not wasted, whoever eats it will be the same.
Chen Chen thought while eating supper, although it looked ugly as always, the taste was actually not bad, and it was a pity that he couldn't let Mr. Yan taste it.
However, he left in such a hurry, obviously there was an emergency, and I hope nothing major will happen.
After eating supper, he cleaned up the stove that was soiled again, Chen Chen couldn't sleep now, and stayed up until it was dark, and the people on the morning shift came to take over before going home to make up for sleep.
In the shade of Chen Chen's dilapidated neighborhood, two dark shadows argued in a whisper.
The slightly shorter black shadow complained: "Alas, I haven't seen the man the marshal said for so long, do you think it could be that the marshal has a bad memory when he is old, and he forgot the coordinates of that man and wanted to see him and let us come out to search, so he found a coordinate to fool us!" ”
The tall man did not answer him quickly, but waited impatiently to get about to go crazy, and his voice was cold, not as vigorous and energetic as the previous one.
"Impossible, the marshal has always been rigorous, and he will not make such low-level mistakes, and not all of them are as brainless and impertinent as you."
The strong complaint made the short boy unconvinced, and he was afraid of attracting human onlookers, so he yelled at him in a suppressed voice: "Hmph, I am your master now, if you show disdain for me again, I will go back to complain to my brother and let him destroy you." Also, the coordinates he gave were already vague, and the scope on the earth was too wide. If I continue to look like this, I think Young Master Ben will be exhausted to death. ”
"Actually, we just came here today, and we are turning around here within a range of dozens of meters, master, you are exaggerating again."
These words really aroused the dissatisfaction of the short man, and he kicked him hard in the leg, but it did not provoke any reaction from the other party, which was really boring.
"You care about me so much, you can just listen to what I say in the future, and if you interject again, I won't be able to spare you. I'll let you open your mouth before you can express your opinion. ”
The latter is silent, which can be regarded as acquiescence. So the short man pulled him to sit on the bench next to the parking space in the community, and the warm yellow light sprinkled on his face, and a delicate and small face appeared.
"x915, when did you say we could complete this task and go back, I really want to be a marshal, that handsome face is really like a day away." What he blurted out was not a person's name, but it was not the dead of night, and there was no one else around, and of course no one would know that they were not earthlings at all.
……
The tall man remained silent, finally causing his impatience.
"I'm talking about you...... Oops, I'm so angry that I was left singing a one-man show alone, so boring. Speak quickly, speak quickly. He shut up for a while, and hoped that someone would echo his words, and he didn't know if he wanted to hear the sound of the unbullied.
Disgusted with each other, the two people on the bench gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared into the night, not knowing that they had ever been.
On the other side, Yan Shu rushed to the hospital overnight, and his mother had been sent to the rescue room, only to see the three big red words "rescue" at the door of the rescue room, and her eyelids were beating restlessly.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Yan Shuqiang cheered up, and finally waited for the doctor to come out of it, and he hurriedly greeted him.
"Dr. Liang, how's the situation going?" He asked eagerly, he had long lost his coldness and calmness in the company, and at the moment he was just a child worried about his mother's safety.
Taking off the blue mask, Dr. Liang told Yan Shu: "The situation has been stabilized for the time being, but the danger period has not yet passed." Your mother's condition is not very good, I hope you can be mentally prepared, just see if you can survive tonight, and hold on until tomorrow to basically hold on to your life temporarily. ”
Yan Shu lowered his head, unable to see his feelings.
In the past few years, Dr. Liang has watched Yan Shu try his best to save his mother's life, and his heart is full of emotion, all he can do is to try his best to help his mother stabilize his condition, and give him a little confidence to persevere when he is lost to despair.
"Okay, you also relax a little, the string is easy to break if it is tight. Your mother has been transferred to the intensive care unit, and if you feel uncomfortable, you can guard her. I only have one point, you don't let yourself get sick too. ”
Yan Shu nodded, not wanting to speak, Doctor Liang looked at his dejected appearance, sighed, and left.
Yan Shu stayed up nervously outside the ICU for half the night, and he did not relax until dawn, when his mother was finally out of danger.
Dr. Liang advised: "Although she is getting better now, but your mother's health is not good, and she must not be able to stand it after such a toss last night, you should take good care of her and give her a little more nutrition." ”
"Well, thank you, Dr. Liang, for your hard work. When you've been busy all night, go back and rest. Yan Shu planned to wait for the kitchen to work during the day, and let Li Huan make some nutritious soup porridge and send it over.
"Okay, I know you're measured, no one is more considerate of her than you, and I'm more at ease." Dr. Liang smiled and walked out of the ward with the little nurse, leaving Yan Shu alone by his mother's bedside, staring at her pale face and feeling terribly distressed.
"Buzz ......"
The vibration of the mobile phone attracted his attention, he took out the mobile phone and looked at the three words "Manager Wu" on the screen and frowned, and then turned it on and put it in his ear.
"Hey, Mr. Yan, I just received an urgent message."
Afraid of disturbing his mother's rest, Yan Shu walked out of the ward and asked, "What's wrong?" Something to say. ”
Manager Wu's tone was a little anxious: "Mr. Qing He, a famous Taiwanese gourmet, is coming to Aisen this morning, Mr. Yan, do you want to ......?"
"Alright, I'll be right back, you know what to do."
Mr. Qing He has a column in the country's No. 1 food magazine, and is known for his sharp and poisonous tongue, but the food he admits is also highly sought after. Therefore, the hotel attached great importance to his arrival, and even Yan Shu rushed back to the hotel to meet him in person when he heard the news of his arrival.
"Sir, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came, I'll let someone pick you up at the airport." Yan Shu also just came from the hospital, and he stayed in front of his mother's bed all night last night and didn't sleep, and now he still has a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Waving his hand to let the others retreat, Mr. Qinghe smiled at Yan Shu: "I heard that you have a chef here who has turned decay into a miracle, I just came here to admire it, you know, I have tasted all the delicacies in the world in my life, not to mention that it is still under you, I don't taste the taste, I always feel uneasy." ”
Although Qing He is known as "Mr. Lao" in the industry, in fact, he is only in the prime of life, relying on his old qualifications and sharp language not to offend people, so he has this honorific title.
"The old gentleman said with a smile, let's go, I'll take you to try it." Yan Shu made a gesture that you would like to ask first.
The most qualified critics in the food industry came to taste it, and the hotel attached great importance to this reception, carefully prepared the best ingredients, and told Li Huan that he would never drop the chain.
But Li Huan had no real skills, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he had no choice but to dial Chen Chen's phone. The ringtone rang several times, but the person on the other end didn't answer the phone, Li Huan was extremely angry and persevered to continue to call him.
"Chef Li, why haven't you started preparing?" A chef came over and fiddled with the ingredients, which was related to the reputation of their entire hotel, and the other chefs were also very concerned about whether Li Huan could be appreciated in front of the old gentleman.
Chen Chen, who was on night duty, was supposed to have a day off, but was woken up by a phone ringing. After groping in bed for a long time, Chen Chen finally found his mobile phone.
"Hey, who's that?" He was drowsy and couldn't open his eyes.
"Xiao Chen, why don't you come to work yet? Dead! Li Huan was furious, and most of the sleepy insects in Chen Chen's mind were noisily destroyed by a random roar.
"Huh? But I worked the night shift last night, huh? ”
"It doesn't matter if you work night shifts or not, don't you know that there are heavyweight VIPs in the hotel today? You must arrive within 10 minutes, or you won't come in the future! ”
"Huh? Oh...... Okay, I'll go over right away. Chen Chen threw away his mobile phone in pain, and his groggy brain didn't react in the end, why he had to entertain heavyweight VIPs.
When he got up, Chen Chen was unsteady on his feet, fell back on the bed, and lay quietly for two minutes. He rolled over and thought to himself, if he continued like this, he wouldn't be able to keep his job, this would not work.
Coming out of the community, Chen Chen was walking with his eyes almost closed, staggering several times and almost tripping over himself.
"No, how long will it take to get to the hotel in such a state!" Chen Chen slapped his cheeks vigorously, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and shook his arms to let the oxygen reach his whole body faster, lifting a little spirit.
The pedestrian green light at the intersection was about to turn red, Chen Chen took a deep breath, pulled his legs and ran to the opposite road, finally catching the green light and running to the opposite road at the last second - he needed to go there to take the bus.
In the past, he walked to the hotel to avoid wasting the fare, but today the situation is urgent, and he decided to take the bus, which is regarded as a waste.
Probably because he didn't rest well, his mind was a little trance, but he didn't expect that he was just about to continue walking towards the bus stop, when suddenly his feet deviated and he took a step into the middle of the road.
A van sped forward and almost hit him, passing Chen Chen's left hand. Insults from the male driver were heard ahead.
"Fuck you, you don't look at the road when you walk! You deserve to be killed! ”
The van left in the dust, leaving Chen Chen standing in place and holding his heart in shock, constantly recalling the thrilling scene just now, how could his heart not be calm.
Chen Chen went to the hotel with his support, but before he saw Li Huan, he was called by the worker at the back door to help carry the seafood.
"I'm sorry, Brother Li told me to be in a hurry." Chen Chen said apologetically.
"What urgent matter must need you? You think you can't do without Chef Li, right? This box of seafood is so heavy, how can you let me move it alone, and I don't have the effort to take the handle? ”
Chen Chen had no choice but to agree to him: "Okay." ”
Originally, his health was not good, but he made a supper for the president the night before, and he hurried over without resting, Chen Chen's mind became more and more confused, and his feet became more and more soft.
Oh my god, is this box of seafood a little too heavy? Why didn't you feel this way before? Chen Chen staggered forward, trying to get closer to his destination, but the things in his hands became heavier and heavier, so that he had to stop and rest for a while.
The growing dizziness in his brain made him feel bad, but the worker behind him began to urge again: "Hey, I said what are you doing!" After two days as a cook, my body became delicate, right, I couldn't even move a box of seafood, it was really useless. ”
I wanted to refute, but Chen Chen's mouth opened and closed several times, and he only spit out a few breaths, and he couldn't say a complete sentence, and the noisy voice of the little worker seemed to penetrate his eardrums and meninges, giving him a headache.
After resting for a while, under the constant urging of the small worker, Chen Chen moved the seafood again, and his brain congestion made his vision blurry.
At this time, Deng Jia passed by here, looked at Chen Chen's painful appearance, couldn't help but gloat in his heart, and said proudly: "Hey, isn't this my colleague at the same level?" How did you end up here to work as a coolie? Was he disliked by Chef Li and dismissed from his position as a chef? ”
When the worker heard Deng Jia's words, he hurriedly cooperated: "Oh, Brother Deng, you misunderstood, this is not coolie, it's just that Chen Chen took the initiative to help us when he saw that we were working hard." If you talk nonsense and be heard by outsiders, Chef Li will definitely come to clean us up, I don't want it. ”
"Hahaha, you're right, it's just friends helping each other, I know what to say." Deng Jia glanced at Chen Chen again and left with a smile.
Listening to their words in his heart, Chen Chen felt very aggrieved, but he couldn't express it, and a voice in his heart said: Give up, give up, don't insist, they don't understand that you are really uncomfortable.
was about to walk to the door, Chen Chen finally accidentally tripped over people with boxes, and the salty sea water flowed to the ground.
"Ahh Chen Chen let out a miserable scream, and his whole body fell to the ground forward, and the strong feeling of falling into the air made him involuntarily cry for help.
"Chen Chen, what are you doing! Got me all over, dirty! ”
The little worker who was smashed by the frame was dissatisfied, and originally wanted to scold him for a few words, but when he saw that Chen Chen didn't stand up after he fell, he panicked all of a sudden, and hurriedly squatted down, seeing Chen Chen's pale and bloodless face, and the cold sweat of beans rolling down one by one, he couldn't help but be frightened.
"Hey, Chen Chen, what's wrong with you? Hey, get up! ”
