Chapter 327 The apprentice and grandson see the master
Wan'er and Feng Shi reunited with Zhong Hao after a long absence, so naturally they had endless words, and this conversation did not stop until the sky began to darken. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Feng smiled and said to Fu Ruozhu: "Ruozhu, you are chatting here first, and your aunt will go to cook and cook, and you can taste your aunt's craftsmanship tonight!" ”
Feng's food shop now not only makes snacks such as soy milk fritters, but also has all kinds of stir-fried dishes. Feng is very concerned about the operation of the restaurant and regards it as his own business. After Zhong Hao taught Feng the art of stir-frying, Feng himself pondered diligently, and had already developed many delicious stir-fried dishes, whose taste was not lost to that of Nature.
The Gao Deli brothers, the owners of Natural House, also helped promote Feng's restaurant, and they always claimed that they learned this stir-fry technique from Feng's. Therefore, many people in Qingzhou think that the stir-fried dishes of Feng's Xu Ji Restaurant are authentic. The business of this Xu Ji restaurant is now very good, and many people come here.
However, Feng didn't have much thought, she didn't think about expanding the scale of the restaurant or anything, she just thought that she would be very satisfied with the food shop.
Although there are many customers who come to this restaurant, Feng Shi only cooks stir-fried vegetables at noon, and closes early in the evening. As for noon, it is only for ten tables of business, and I don't accept it if there are more. Even if you add money, you don't do it. Because the average Feng family receives ten tables of business, it is already the limit of what he can do. There were no apprentices in the restaurant, and she still stir-fried the food herself, but hired two women from the neighborhood to help deliver the food at noon.
On this day, I only made ten tables at noon, and if I didn't do more, it was in line with the way of hunger marketing in later generations, and more people came to this snack shop to taste stir-fried vegetables. It is precisely because of this that the reputation of the stir-fried dishes of this Xu Ji Food Shop is better than that of the stir-fried dishes of Natural Residence!
Now, with the passage of time and the expansion of the natural home, the freshness of this stir-fry has gradually passed.
In fact, although stir-fry is still the most important part of Chinese cooking in later generations, it does not have much advantage compared with other cooking methods. All kinds of cooking methods can make classic and delicious dishes, and if you eat too much of this stir-fry, that's it.
When this stir-fry first appeared, most people came for the freshness of the stir-fry, and after most of them tasted it, they actually felt that it was just like that, and it was nothing more than a kind of dish.
In the past two years, the business of natural residence has not been as hot as the previous two years, which is also the inevitable result of stir-frying over time. But the business of this Xu Ji Restaurant is still very good, uh, of course, Xu Ji Restaurant has ten tables a day, anyway, no matter whether it is good or not, this ten tables of business every day is full.
Fu Ruozhu saw that Feng was going to cook, and said that he wanted to help.
Feng Shi smiled and dissuaded, and asked Wan'er to chat with her, saying that anyway, the ingredients in this restaurant are ready-made, and they are ready to be made.
Seeing that Feng insisted on not allowing it, Fu Ruozhu had no choice but to give up.
After Feng went to the restaurant to cook, Zhong Hao looked at Fu Ruozhu and smiled meaningfully.
He actually knew that Fu Ruozhu was the daughter of the family, and he used to use clothes to stretch out his hands at home, and he used to open his mouth for food, and everything was served by maids. She basically doesn't know how to cook anything except for making porridge, and I'm afraid that if Fu Ruozhu wants to help, it's just to show the diligence of this nephew. But no matter whether you cook or not, at least it's good to have this heart, because I'm very happy to see my daughter-in-law.
However, Fu Ruozhu saw Zhong Hao looking at him with a smile, but he was a little mistaken. She thought that Zhong Hao was laughing at her for not being able to cook, and she was still shouting to help, so she couldn't help but blush a little.
Fu Ruozhu went to the courtyard and asked Ling'er to help pick up those light gifts, and pick out the gifts she picked for Wan'er and give them to Wan'er.
When Wan'er saw the incense powder, rouge, jewelry and clothes that were mostly bought by time-honored stores in Tokyo, she immediately let out a coquettish cry and couldn't stop thanking her for her cousin-in-law.
Zhong Hao couldn't help but pout, is this all good for his cousin's money?!
Fu Ruozhu saw that Wan'er was happy, and immediately asked Wan'er with a smile: "Wan'er, your cooking skills are good, right?" ”
Fu Ruozhu couldn't help but be a little depressed when he saw Zhong Hao just now that he seemed to have some jokes that he couldn't cook. In the past, she was the daughter of a big family, and she couldn't cook if she didn't know how to cook. Now that he is married to Zhong Hao, he is also a person with a father-in-law, and it is also good to cook some meals occasionally and please the father-in-law, but Fu Ruozhu has made up his mind to learn cooking skills.
Fu Ruozhu saw that since Wan'er and Feng were in charge of this small food shop, then this cooking skill should naturally be proficient, so she saved the plan to let Wan'er teach her cooking, so she planned to let Wan'er teach her in the future by taking the opportunity to give Wan'er a gift.
Wan'er snorted lightly, and said proudly: "That's natural, sister-in-law, it's not Wan'er and I'll blow it, my cooking skills, I'm afraid there are really few people who can compare!" ”
Fu Ruozhu smiled: "Then Wan'er will teach her sister-in-law in the future, right?!" ”
Wan'er looked at Fu Ruozhu, who was covered in luxurious clothes and full of pearls, and said with some surprise: "How did sister-in-law think of learning this cooking skill, Brother Hao is now a jinshi, and sister-in-law will inevitably have a destiny in the future. "Wan'er is now older, but she is not completely as ignorant as she was when she was a child!
Fu Ruozhu said with a smile: "Even if the family hires a cook, it won't delay my sister-in-law to learn cooking!" Then she whispered to Wan'er: "Sometimes I can cook a few delicious meals for my father-in-law to coax each other to open up!" Wan'er, remember, after getting married in the future, even if there is a cook at home, you will have to cook a few delicious meals for your father-in-law from time to time! ”
Wan'er suddenly said: "So that's the case!" After a pause, she said again: "That sister-in-law wants to learn, Wan'er will naturally teach you well!" Wan'er listened to her sister-in-law's words, but she remembered it in her heart. As for her sister-in-law learning to cook to please her brother Hao, Wan'er is naturally very happy to see it happen, so she naturally wants to teach her well.
………………
Zhong Hao saw the gifts that Fu Ruozhu moved in, and remembered that Pan Xiaohe, the coachman sent by the Pan family to drive for him, was still waiting at the door to arrange it, which made Wan'er and his aunt happy, and he forgot about this guy.
At that moment, Zhong Hao got up and went to the door to find Pan Xiaohe.
These two carriages were given to Zhong Hao and Xu Feng by Pan Xu, but Zhong Hao and Xu Feng naturally had nowhere to find a coachman for a while, so these coachmen were all servants of Pan's mansion. The task that Pan Xu gave Pan Xiaohe and the two coachmen was to send Zhong Hao and Xu Feng to Qingzhou safely.
Zhong Hao considered leaving Pan Xiaohe and being a special driver for himself. But Pan Xiaohe's home is in Tokyo, and his parents, relatives and friends are also in Tokyo, so it is naturally unlikely that he will stay in Qingzhou to drive Zhong Hao. Besides, although Qingzhou is also a big city, but compared with Tokyo City, there is still a lot less prosperity and wind ~ flow, although a coachman like Pan Xiaohe who lives at the bottom is difficult to experience these prosperity and wind ~ flow, but he is used to being in a big city like Tokyo, and may not be able to stay in a local city like Qingzhou. This Pan Xiaohe sent Zhong Hao to Qingzhou, and naturally planned to return to Tokyo. Zhong Hao felt that people were probably reluctant to stay, so he didn't open his mouth to keep people.
Of course, in fact, Zhong Hao hasn't decided whether to raise a special driver. Zhong Hao is now in Qingzhou, if he finds another driver to drive, he naturally has to find someone from Qingzhou. But he didn't stay long in Qingzhou, and then he had to go to Dengzhou, and next spring, he would have to go back to Tokyo to receive the mission! If you find a coachman in Qingzhou, you may not be able to go to other places with you, so how to deal with this carriage is still a problem. So Zhong Hao didn't plan to find a driver for the time being.
When Zhong Hao came out, Pan Xiaohe was sitting in front of the carriage, bored playing with the horsewhip in his hand!
Zhong Hao came out of the courtyard gate, circled around the carriage, looked at the luxury carriage driven by two horses, and then looked at his courtyard gate, it seems that this courtyard gate can't enter at all, now not only is it a trouble to find this carriage driver, but it is really a bit troublesome to put this carriage there! Zhong Hao couldn't help but think of the trouble of buying a car in the future, but the parking space in the community is limited, and there is often no place to park the car.
Zhong Hao thought about it, but thought of a place to park. At that moment, he climbed into the carriage and instructed Pan Xiaohe to drive to the natural residence.
There is a special place to store carriages and feed horses in the backyard of the natural house. In this era, this is equivalent to a parking lot, and many outsiders or outsiders from outside the city come to Qingzhou City to go to the restaurant, naturally they are either riding horses or riding cars, so the restaurant naturally has a place to store carriages and feed horses. Of course, in the case of an inn, the place where the carriages and horses were fed would have been much larger.
When Zhong Hao and Pan Xiaohe came to the natural residence, the sky had already darkened, and the natural residence was already brightly lit, a bustling and noisy scene.
As soon as he saw Zhong Hao's gorgeous carriage coming, the greeting guy at the door of the natural residence greeted him with a smile, and before he saw anyone, he had already beckoned: "Distinguished guest, please sit inside!" ”
Zhong Hao lifted the curtain of the carriage and got off the car, and when he saw that the guy was one of Gao Defu's apprentices, Xiao Bolt, he couldn't help laughing: "Yo, little bolt!" ”
When Xiao Bolt saw Zhong Hao, he couldn't help but be surprised and happy, and couldn't help but shout excitedly: "Master! ”
But as soon as the little bolt spoke, he regretted it a little. He is now often doing things to usher in, and he is no longer an ignorant teenager, he has already had a lot of experience in dealing with people and things, and he has a lot of understanding of human affairs and world affairs.
He knew that when Zhong Hao left Qingzhou, he was already an official, and now he is a high school jinshi, a civil official of the Qinggui jinshi, and he is afraid that he will definitely not be willing to openly discuss any master-apprentice relationship with his own welcoming junior. Even if people want to talk about the relationship between master and apprentice, they are also talking about the relationship with those literati, and they talk about the inheritance with poetry and articles, how can they discuss what kind of inheritance with the chef of a restaurant! Xiao Shuzi felt that the reason why Zhong Hao had discussed master and apprentice with his master in the past was because everyone was a flat-headed common man in the past, so there would be no price drop. But now that his master has become a jinshi, I am afraid that if he publicly calls others his master, people will be disgusted!
Yes, the little bolt just subconsciously shouted out because of excitement, and then he regretted it a little, and he couldn't help but be a little scared for a while, and he was very embarrassed.
But Xiao Bolt obviously thought too much, Zhong Hao used to be an official, but in the northwest, he has always been in harmony with the military and civilians of Jingqiang Village, and he has never been able to grasp his identity. Although I have won the Jinshi now, I don't have much awareness of the identity of this Jinshi! Besides, these Gao Deli brothers and Xiao Zhuzi are the earliest people they have been with in the Great Song Dynasty, and the relationship between them was very close before, with Zhong Hao's personality, even if they are developed, they will be closer to them, and they will definitely not be estranged from them. Because Zhong Hao feels that this kind of friendship at the end of the day is more true than the kind of friendship after the beginning.
At that moment, he was very happy to see the little bolt and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a few years, you have grown a lot of progress little bolt, and now the work that is being sent here is very smooth!" How are you learning to cook? "When Zhong Hao left Qingzhou three years ago, this little bolt was still a young man, and now he has grown into a young man! Of course, in fact, although Zhong Hao's rank is two generations higher than Xiao Zhuzi, he is actually three or four years older than him. However, Zhong Hao is a human being in two lives after all, and he is mentally old, and three years ago, he saw that the thirteen or fourteen-year-old little bolt was a young boy, but there was no problem at all.
Seeing that he called Zhong Hao's master, Zhong Hao did not show the slightest disgust, but greeted him very warmly, and couldn't help but let go of his sincere fear, and then he was a little happy. In the eyes of the little bolt, the Jinshi master is a high-ranking existence, today he can chat with a Jinshi master, this is something that can be boasted about for a long time, can you not be happy?
At that moment, the little bolt said very respectfully: "Return...... Master, my cooking skills are almost done, and I often cook on weekdays, but this time the business is relatively busy, and the guy who greeted the guests in front of me is not very good, so the master asked me to come to the front to help greet him! ”
When Xiao Bolt replied to Zhong Hao's words, he hesitated for a moment, feeling that since Zhong Hao didn't have an unhappy look just now, he felt that he was still talking about the master-apprentice relationship with Zhong Hao. It is also a great honor to be the apprentice grandson of the master of Jinshi, and today the little bolt feels that it is a little honorable. Although his apprentice is not a scholarly teacher, but he can have the opportunity to have a relationship with the old man Jinshi, the little bolt decided to take advantage of it!
Zhong Hao looked at the noisy natural house, and couldn't help laughing: "This business has been good recently?" "Zhong Hao is a little strange, the general stir-fry is a little greasy, when it is hot in this summer, the general business will be relatively poor, why is the business of this natural residence more popular?"
