"Mr. Ye, you're here." After Ye Chui and his party approached, Huang Yiyuan immediately greeted with a smile, with a somewhat arrogant smile on his face.

Lin Dong, Zhang Jiahui, and Peng Song, who were standing behind him, also showed a similar smile on their faces.

Ye Chui smiled and nodded: "Hasn't Boss Shen arrived yet?" ”

"Manager Wang has already called Boss Shen just now, and he will come over in ten minutes." Huang Yiyuan said with a smile, his eyes suddenly glanced at the plate in Ye Chui's hand, "Boss Ye, is this the perfect version of the Shen dumplings you made?" ”

"That's right." Ye Chui nodded without any scheming, and he also glanced at the plate in Huang Yiyuan's hand, "What are you?" ”

"Dumplings." Huang Yiyuan couldn't say it proudly, "It's a coincidence to say it, after I left yesterday, someone suddenly found me, saying that he had the perfect Shen dumpling recipe in his hand, and I spent a little money to buy the formula back from him, this thing is very important to Boss Shen, I want to return the formula to him today." After a pause, Huang Yiyuan continued: "Of course, although the dumplings I made with this recipe are very delicious, I still don't seem to be as good as Mr. Ye, and the taste may be much worse. ”

The meaning of these modest words is actually obvious: my dumplings are more authentic than yours, and it depends on what you can only do today.

Ye Chui still looked innocent as if he hadn't heard anything, and said with a smile: "Yes, I also think my dumplings are more authentic than yours." ”

Huang Yiyuan: "......"

"Mr. Ye seems to be very confident today." Lin Dong said with a sneer on the side, he still greeted Ye Trai with a smile, but yesterday Ye Trai directly drove him and Huang Yiyuan out of the Shen Dumpling box, which made him very unhappy.

"There is nothing self-confident or unconfident, Shen dumplings were originally our Chinese inheritance of dumpling practices, when it comes to this kind of dumpling practice, I just know better." Ye Chui also said with a smile.

Seeing the conversation between Ye Trai and Lin Dong, Han Yuyan, Li Xiuyun and others secretly cheered for Ye Trai in their hearts. However, Tang Shanshan became more and more cramped and uneasy, Ye Chui is now acting so strongly, he will be even worse when he waits......

In an instant, she began to blame herself again, feeling that she had harmed Ye Chui.

Chen Tian glanced at Tang Shanshan, leaned over to Han Yuyan's side and asked in a whisper: "What the hell is wrong with Shanshan, she has been in a state since this morning, and it is very strange." ”

Han Yuyan turned her head and glanced at Tang Shanshan, she couldn't say what happened now, but she couldn't wait, she smiled quietly and said to Chen Tian, "Sister Tiantian." There will be a surprise later. ”

"Surprise, what surprise?"

"You'll find out just by waiting." Han Yuyan smiled again and glanced at Ye Chui, "Master is really, he usually looks very serious, but it's really unbearable to play badly." ”

Chen Tian: "......"

No matter how Han Yuyan listens to this, there is a strong smell of eighteen prohibitions, is it really appropriate to put it here?

After waiting outside the Shen dumplings for a long time, a taxi drove slowly over and arrived in front of everyone. The car stopped, the door opened, and an old man in his sixties got out, a typical Oriental man. Wearing a suit, his face was a little grim, his eyes swept over the people standing in front of Shen Dumpling, and his eyes finally stayed in front of Ye Chui for a moment. Then he turned to the other side of the taxi, pulled the car door open, and helped an old lady out of it.

The old lady looked to be in her nineties. Like Han Lao, she is the kind of person who has survived the catastrophe of the entire vegetarian movement, but it is obvious that her body is not as tough as Han Lao, she is stiff on her back, her body is very thin, her head is full of silver hair, her face is full of wrinkles, her old eyes are dizzy, after being helped out of the car by her son, she looks left and right at this strange environment, and it seems that it takes a long time to get used to or remember that this is there.

She whispered to her son what to write, and Shen Zhongda, the boss of Shen dumplings, nodded, and helped her to Ye Chui.

"Mom, he's the one who said he knew the recipe for Shen dumplings." Coming to Ye Chui's face, Shen Zhongda said to the old lady with a soft smile.

The old lady tried hard to see Ye Chu's appearance clearly, and then spit out a dry voice with a bit of Northeast flavor from her mouth: "Do you really know the recipe for dumplings?" ”

"That's right." He showed great respect for this old lady Ye Chui, he felt that this old lady was probably dying, and yesterday's phone call with Shen Zhongda made Ye Chui also understand that the reason why Shen Zhongda cared so much about the perfect recipe for the old dumplings was probably because of his mother.

Her mother is coming to the end of her life, and she is the last child of the Bian family, and her long-cherished wish is to be able to taste the dumplings she ate when she was a child again.

"What I know is the most authentic recipe for old-sided dumplings." Ye Chui continued to say to the old lady.

"Old side dumplings, I haven't heard this name for a long time." The wrinkles on the old lady's face were relaxed, and she said with a smile.

Shen Zhongda looked at Ye Chui, and then said: "Mr. Ye, as long as you can make old dumplings that satisfy my mother, in the future, Shen Dumplings will claim to the outside world that they come from the inheritance of Chinese cuisine, and will never participate in the independence of Chinatown cuisine, I will do what I say." ”

"Hehe, I believe in Boss Shen." Ye Chui said and took the plate in his hand to his eyes, and was about to speak, when Huang Yiyuan's voice suddenly came: "Slow! ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at Huang Yiyuan.

Huang Yiyuan walked in front of Shen Zhongda with a plate in his hand with a triumphant face: "Boss Shen, Ye Chui is not the only one who knows the perfect Shen dumpling recipe, in fact, I also happen to know, and I also plan to give this recipe to Boss Shen." ”

Shen Zhongda frowned, after living for such a long time, he could naturally see Huang Yiyuan's intentions, he wanted to prevent himself from admitting defeat from Ye Chui.

Chen Tian interjected and said, "Master Huang, you're not right, even if you want to come up with perfect Shen dumplings, you have to wait for Master to take them out here." ”

"There's no order to do this." Huang Yiyuan lifted the lid of the plate in his hand and sent the dumplings on the plate to the old lady, "Old lady Shen, this is the perfect Shen dumpling, I promise to satisfy you." ”

The old lady looked at the tray in Huang Yiyuan's hand with some cloudy eyes, stared at it for a while, a trace of disappointment seemed to flash on her face, she smiled and nodded: "It looks like a very delicious dumpling." ”

Shen Zhongda looked at Huang Yiyuan, and then at Ye Chui, he thought about it and said, "It's windy outside, let's go to the hotel first." ”

At the invitation of Shen Zhongda, the group entered a box in the Shen Dumpling Hotel.

Chen Tian looked indignant, and said to Ye Chui in a low voice: "Huang Yiyuan, this guy got the recipe for Shen dumplings from there, I think it's just a trick!" ”

"Looks like that." Ye Chui said with a smile.

Tang Shanshan's expression was even more self-reproachful, and her hands grabbed the hem of the T-shirt tightly.

Han Yuyan couldn't stand her like this, and gently patted her shoulder to let her relax.

Inside the box of the dumplings.

The old lady was helped to sit down in the innermost position, and the others were standing next to her, Huang Yiyuan glanced at Ye Chui with a smug face, and then put the tray in his hand in front of the old lady, Wang Fu had already brought a pair of chopsticks, Huang Yiyuan personally handed the chopsticks to the old lady's hand, and said with a smile: "Old lady Shen, taste whether this dumpling is to your taste." ”

"Okay, good ......" The old lady squeezed the chopsticks slowly, sandwiched a dumpling from the plate, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully for a moment, at this time her face once again showed a touch of disappointment, obviously the shape of the dumpling made her a little dissatisfied, but she still kept looking forward to taking a bite gently, there were only two or three teeth left in her mouth, this mouthful of dumplings was eaten very slowly, and her mouth squirmed gently.

Shen Zhongda stood aside expectantly, his mother handed him the old dumpling practice after the meat ban was lifted two years ago, he resigned from a large company, and opened a Shen dumpling restaurant with the help of this recipe, which became an instant hit.

Shen dumplings are undoubtedly very delicious, known as the most delicious dumplings in Chinatown, but her mother is not satisfied, she said that the dumplings made by her father and brother when she was a child are not like this, and there are defects.

The old side dumplings are passed on to men but not women, when the dumpling restaurant at home makes dumplings, they all choose to work at night, when the guys and women in the store are asleep before they start working, it is said that this is a tradition handed down from the old man Bian Fu, at that time Shen Zhongda's mother was very curious about the practice of this kind of dumplings, and once quietly peeked at how his father and brother made this kind of dumplings, and she was also taught a hard lesson after being discovered, so although she knew some of the practices of the old dumplings, she did not know comprehensively.

Later, the vegetarian movement broke out, and Laobian dumplings completely declined, and she came to Chinatown in the United States by chance, and eighty years passed like this......

She didn't expect to wait until the day when the ban on meat was lifted, and when she knew that pork was eaten again, she tried to recall the past, recall the dumplings she had eaten when she was a child, and the recipe she secretly saw, and made Shen dumplings.

Shen dumplings are incomplete old side dumplings, she is very old and has a declining memory, but the taste of the old side dumplings she ate when she was a child has never been forgotten, she has experimented many times, but she still can't make that taste.

The recipe she remembered was incomplete, and many important things were missing......

And today she was originally full of expectations, but when she saw the dumplings made by Huang Yiyuan, she couldn't hide the expectations in her heart.

This is not the dumpling she ate as a child.

After she finished eating one, she put down the chopsticks in her hand and glanced at Huang Yiyuan with a smile: "This dumpling is delicious, but it is not the most authentic old side dumpling ......" (to be continued......)
