The vegetable patch that appeared in the courtyard of the villa greatly relieved Zhong Huan's nervousness. The act of growing vegetables in the villa, although it can be understood that being rich is capricious, also shows that rich people are also people, not necessarily all love spring and snow, and some prefer Riba people. Since they are all human, Zhong Huan is naturally generous.

After walking through the courtyard and entering the villa, Aunt Wang took off her shoes and asked Zhong Huan to change them in. As soon as he lowered his head and finished changing his shoes, he looked up again and saw a slightly chubby and energetic old man walking from the kitchen into the living room, still holding a plate of vegetables in his hand.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhong has arrived." Aunt Wang saw that Old Man Zhou came out of the kitchen and immediately introduced it, she knew that this old man and young man had never met.

"Zhong Huan, right? Come in and sit. I ate the peaches you sold, and they were really good. Today I will cook a few dishes to entertain you, which is considered a return gift. Xiao Wang, you go to the kitchen and serve the dishes. ”

Zhou Ruixuan looked at Zhong Huan with a smile, and sure enough, as his son said, he was a young man with a grandchild.

"Hello Grandpa Zhou! You're so gracious. Zhong Huan was even more relaxed when he saw Zhou Ruixuan, the old man didn't seem to have any arrogance, he should be a good person to get along with.

"Hehe~ Your name is grandpa, but it reminds me that my grandson is here. It's a pity that he wasn't here today, or the two of you would have been able to talk. I'm an old man who can't keep up with the times, except for the good cooking skills, and the fact that some food can be popular with you young people, everything else is outdated. You'll have to try my hand at it later. ”

Zhou Ruixuan found that Zhong Huan was still a little nervous, so his tone was more friendly, and he led the topic to his grandson and food, so as not to have nothing to say to Zhong Huan.

"You don't have to eat your old cooking, it smells good. Your grandson is in for a treat. ”

Zhong Huan's words were not flattering, Zhong Huan's index finger had already hooked on the plate of bad fish fillets that Old Man Zhou had just served. A plate of fish fillets is not only full of fragrance, but also bright in color, and the snow-white fish fillets are decorated with green and red peppers to decorate with special beauty, and the real color and flavor are complete. Looking at the shape of this dish, Zhong Huan felt that it was not like a home-cooked dish, but more like the craftsmanship of a restaurant chef.

"You're a good boy, but my dad doesn't cook much. Eat more later. Dad, Zhong Huan has brought you peaches again, this time there are plums, you can also taste them, the taste is no worse than Shou peach. ”

Zhou Hongda opened the door and entered the house, carrying two bags in his hand, one bag of peaches and the other bag of plums. He is also a good person, and he doesn't say that he bought it himself, but that he said that he gave it to Zhong Huan.

"Really? Then I'm going to have to try it. Wash your hands, let's eat. "Old Man Zhou saw that everyone was all together and the dishes were served, so he announced that the meal would be opened.

Zhong Huan washed his hands and sat down at the dining table, and saw that six dishes, one soup and a fruit plate were already placed on the table.

Fish fillet, diced chicken with fresh bamboo shoots, cumin mutton, sweet and sour tenderloin, stir-fried wild mountain mushrooms, roasted winter melon with sea rice, and a large bowl of West Lake beef soup are all made by Mr. Zhou.

The fruit bowl is naturally filled with very beautiful peaches and plums, which is Zhou Hongda's craftsmanship. Zhong Huan didn't expect the chubby Zhou Hongda to move so fast, and he just washed his hands and processed the fruit, which shows that this is also a cooking expert.

Six dishes and one soup, it can be seen that each dish is carefully prepared by the host. Not only does it take into account the combination of meat and vegetables, but it also includes chicken, fish, pork, beef and mutton, even if the guests have one or two foods to avoid eating, they can also meet the needs of the guests.

After Zhong Huan felt Old Man Zhou's good intentions, he was a little flattered and a little uneasy at the same time. He felt that Zhou Hongda and Old Man Zhou's grand reception of him must be related to the cooperation to be discussed later, but he didn't know how they would cooperate.

"You're welcome, little bell. Eat as much as you like. Try my craft. ”

Old Man Zhou saw that Zhong Huan didn't move his chopsticks, and as he spoke, he took a piece of plum from the fruit bowl with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, which was regarded as taking the lead. Generally speaking, fruits should be eaten after meals, but this table of good dishes, Mr. Zhou is most interested in the plums sold by Zhong Huan. Shou Tao has already eaten it, but he doesn't know how this plum is.

"Dad, Xiao Zhong, this plum is not bad! I think it can be on our menu. ”

Zhou Hongda heard his father call Zhong Huan Xiao Zhong very kindly, so he also learned it. He had already tasted the plums sold by Zhong Huan in the market, and now he was waiting for his father to give him an evaluation.

"Sweet and sour, this plum is good! If you process this plum and put it in the cold dish before the meal, it is guaranteed to increase the appetite of the guests. ”

Zhou Ruixuan took a bite and felt that this plum was good. Such a good plum will be spoiled on the plate after the meal, and it is the most appetizing before the meal. Zhou Ruixuan immediately thought about the position of plums on the menu.

"Grandpa Zhou, the dishes you cook are so delicious, you don't need to eat plums to increase your appetite."

Zhong Huan had already sandwiched a piece of fish fillet and put it in his mouth, the smooth and tender fish melted in his mouth, there was no fishy smell at all, and there was not a single thorn, and he didn't know what kind of fish it was made of. The seasoning of the salty and fresh fish fillets is also just right, with a little more and a little less and a light. It is no exaggeration to say that the entrance of a piece of fish meat has increased Zhong Huan's understanding of cooking skills.

Before, he thought that the natural fruits and vegetables of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gu were the most delicious things in the world, but today after eating the fish fillet made by Old Man Zhou, he realized the charm of cooking. The ordinary fish meat showed an extremely delicious taste under Old Man Zhou's cooking, and the deliciousness was definitely no worse than the super fruits and vegetables produced by Ten Thousand Beast Gu. Zhong Huan couldn't help but start thinking, if the Niu 13 ingredients of the Ten Thousand Beast Gu were paired with the Niu 13 cooking skills of the old man last week, how delicious and delicious would it be?

"Hehe~ If you like to eat, eat more. My family runs a hotel, and the better the appetite of the guests, the happier I am. So the plums and peaches you sell are treasures to me. I asked Hongda to bring you over today because I want to discuss with you about fruit wholesale. ”

Mr. Zhou is most proud of this cooking skill, and he never gets tired of being praised by others. Seeing that Zhong Huan was eating happily, he felt that he could start talking about cooperation.

"Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ~"

Before Zhong Huan could speak, the doorbell suddenly rang. Aunt Wang, who had not been seated all this time, heard the doorbell and hurriedly went out to open the door. Old Man Zhou and Zhou Hongda frowned at the same time, I don't know who will come to the door at this time, could it be that Zhou Xin came back from an internship in the hotel?

The people at the table didn't wait for long, and when they saw Aunt Wang, they brought in a person from outside the door. Zhong Huan, who put down the chopsticks, saw that the person who entered the door was also an old gentleman, who was one meter eight miles away, his waist was straight, his hair was combed neatly, and his shirt and trousers were also ironed very straight, which made people feel that this person was meticulous at a glance.

"Okay, you're an old vegetable farmer, and you don't call me for dinner. You're not a friend enough. ”

As soon as someone came in and saw Old Man Zhou and a table of dishes, they shouted, it seemed that the two of them knew each other very well. Zhong Huan's demeanor and tone when he listened to him were not as rigid as his dress, but very casual and free.

"I don't call you, you can smell and come to the door, you are such a gluttonous cat."

Zhou Ruixuan also laughed when he saw the visitor, calling the other party's nickname. The person who came was Zhou Ruixuan's old friend Su Zhengping, who taught in the university, so he paid special attention to being a teacher, but in his bones, he was the same as Zhou Ruixuan, an easy-going person.

"Uncle Su, please come in, it's all good dishes today." Zhou Hongda is accustomed to bickering with his father and Su Zhengping.

"Hehe~ It's better for me to come early than to come by coincidence, it's my mouth that can't run. You don't mind having a meal with me, do you? ”

Su Zhengping was also looking for Zhou Ruixuan today, knowing that he was at home, he didn't call and killed him directly, but he didn't expect that there were other guests in the Zhou family. However, when he entered the hospital just now, he heard Aunt Wang say that he was not entertaining a distinguished guest, but a child, so he didn't care too much about it, and behaved as usual. At this time, he was ridiculed by Zhou Ruixuan, and he was not angry, but generously changed his shoes and washed his hands and sat at the table, and talked to Zhong Huan.

"Don't mind! Don't mind! You're a friend of Grandpa Zhou, right? Zhong Huan stood up and said.

"What friend? It's just an old gluttonous cat who eats and drinks. Xiao Zhong, you sit down and eat, ignore him. Xiao Wang, add a set of utensils to the old gluttonous cat. Zhou Ruixuan glared at his old friend, but still asked Aunt Wang to add a person's dishes and chopsticks.

"The old vegetable farmer is right! Sit down and eat, it won't taste good when it's cold. Xiao Zhong, I see that you are just like me, you are all blessed. It's not easy for ordinary people to eat the food cooked by old vegetable farmers, so let's not waste it. ”

Su Zhengping has been dealing with a young man of Zhong Huan's age all day long, and he knows the trick very well. So he didn't speak like an elder, but used a friend's tone, which made people feel familiar.

Zhong Huan saw that Su Zhengping was easy-going, so he sat down and continued to eat. Zhou Hongda and Old Man Zhou also picked up the chopsticks again.

Although Su Zhengping came to Zhou Ruixuan for something today, it was not urgent. When he saw a table of delicacies, he put his business aside for a moment and began to taste the delicacies on the table.

"Huh? Today, the fruit tastes unusual. Xiao Zhong, don't patronize the vegetables, but also taste this fruit. ”

Su Zheng usually comes to Zhou Ruixuan to eat and drink, and he is a very good mouthful. He had eaten all the other dishes on the table, but the fruit bowl in the middle felt different from what he usually ate. Although there are only two kinds of fruits in the fruit bowl, peaches and plums, they feel very sweet. He saw that Zhong Huan's chopsticks had never caught fruit, so he couldn't help but recommend it to him, not wanting Zhong Huan to miss the real delicacy.

"Haha~ Old glutton, you're a layman. This fruit was brought by Xiao Zhong, and you still let the family taste it. Old man Zhou likes to watch his old friends mess up the most, and he immediately laughed.

"Really? This fruit tastes so good! The moral of the peach and plum garden is good, this is not to say that I am a teacher. Xiao Zhong didn't know that I was coming, so he specially brought it to me, right? Su Zhengping is worthy of teaching, and he resolved the embarrassment with one sentence.
