Madame is really, it's almost three watches, the lights are dark, there is not even a street lamp, and I have to walk back, I don't have anything to do with it, Uncle Wu is so old, what if he falls somewhere? I still don't believe it, the Qin Mansion is so big, there is not even a guest room, it is really stingy.

After coming out of the back hall, Li Qi complained a lot about Mrs. Qin, and there were words in his mouth.

When I came to the front hall, I saw that only Wu Furong's uncle and nephew were sitting there, but it seemed that Wu Xiaoliu had been severely reprimanded by Wu Furong just now, and he was pulling his head at this time, looking unhappy.

"Uncle Wu!" Li Qi laughed.

Wu Furong glanced at Li Qi, snorted heavily, and turned his head away, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

Wu Xiaoliu just wanted to open his mouth to call 'Brother Li', but when he saw Wu Furong's angry look, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips and looked at Li Qi aggrievedly.

Li Qi waved his hand at Wu Xiaoliu, signaling him not to talk too much, and then walked up to Wu Furong and said, "Uncle Wu, Fang is not mine, and please don't remember the villain." ”

"Humph! Don't dare, don't dare I can't stand it. Wu Furong said coldly.

Li Qi saw that Wu Furong didn't appreciate it, and he didn't care, so he asked with a smile: "Don't you want to know, what did Madam tell me just now?" ”

Wu Furong really wanted to know this, but he couldn't pull his face to ask Li Qi, opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound.

"Alas! It's a pity, it's a pity! Li Qi suddenly sighed and shook his head.

Wu Xiaoliu asked casually: "What is a pity?" ”

But as soon as the words came out, he regretted it, and glanced at Wu Furong apprehensively, and saw that he didn't seem to be mad, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Qi smiled: "It's a pity that your uncle's days in the Drunken Immortal Residence may not last long." ”

Wu Furong was shocked, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about here?" Also, what did you say to your lady just now? ”

Li Qi spread his hands and said: "I didn't say anything just now, it was Mrs. who was talking all the time, she said that when the Drunken Immortal Residence reopened, she would come forward to take care of the Drunken Immortal Residence, so I said Uncle, I'm afraid that in a few years, you can go home like Master Zhou to recuperate." ”

"Is that true?"

Wu Furong was overjoyed and hurriedly asked. Not to mention for the time being, if Mrs. Qin can come forward to take care of the business of the Drunken Immortal Residence, it will be a great thing for him.

Although his body is still relatively tough now, but after all, at such an old age, many things are more than enough and not enough, and the Qin family is left with Mrs. Qin's lone seedling, if she can come forward, whether it is mentally or physically, it is a relief for Wu Furong, and he is no longer worried that one day when he closes his eyes, Mrs. Qin will be able to hold on alone.

Li Qi smiled and said: "Of course, I dare not lie to you, I don't believe that you can go in and ask Mrs. yourself, and from now on, I will officially become the owner of the old --- of the Drunken Immortal Residence." ”

It's really a twist and turn!

Wu Furong frowned and glanced at Li Qi, and suddenly laughed, "Old man finally understands, it turns out that you just said so much, just to let Mrs. come out to take care of the Drunken Immortal Residence." ”

You're a little slower!

Li Qi smiled and said, "I didn't do this to reduce the burden on your shoulders." ”

Wu Furong obviously didn't believe his nonsense, and said angrily: "As long as you scare the old man a few times in the future, the old man will burn high incense!" ”

"How can you!" Li Qi laughed.

He has great respect for Wu Furong, and Wu Furong still has a life-saving grace for him, and in his heart, he has long regarded Wu Furong as a relative.

Although it was known that Li Qifang did not mean to insult Mrs. Qin, when he thought of what Li Qi said, Wu Furong still felt a little scared, and persuaded: "Li Gongzi, I know that you have good intentions, but you are really a little too much for Mrs. ”

"I know, but I can't help it, if I don't say that, do you think Madame will promise me?" Richie said with a roll of his eyes.

He has a point.

Wu Furong nodded, and said, "But you also have to let me know in advance!" ”

Li Qi said angrily: "Uncle, if I had told you in advance, would I still have a chance to say that?" ”

Wu Furong listened and became speechless.

At this time, Wu Xiaoliu suddenly leaned his head over and asked with a smile: "Brother Li, uncle, what are you talking about?" ”

When did this kid come over?

Before Li Qi could speak, he glared at Wu Xiaoliu and said, "Go, what does the little P child know, you kid has to hurry up and practice my cooking skills now, otherwise, hum, you know the consequences." ”

"Don't!"

Wu Xiaoliu shook his head violently, and said with a look of grievance: "I also want to practice, but you didn't teach us cooking!" ”

Hey! This kid still dares to talk back!

However--- I really didn't seem to have taught them anything.

Li Qi knew that he was wrong, but he still refused to admit defeat, and said, "Didn't I teach you how to clean?" Also, don't I always ask you to cut cucumbers? These are all basic skills, if you can't even do this well, you will learn it in the future. ”

"Oh!"

Wu Xiaoliu bowed his head and answered.

"This kid usually likes to be smart, you have to watch it in the future." Wu Furong glared at Wu Xiaoliu, and then said to Li Qi.

Li Qi nodded and said, "What Uncle said is, it seems that I didn't discipline me strictly enough before!" ”

As soon as the two of them sang and harmonized, Wu Xiaoliu, who could hear it, was already sweating profusely, and secretly said in his heart, if the two of them joined forces, how would it be good! I have to go back and discuss countermeasures with the big and small pillars.

In fact, even if Wu Xiaoliu didn't say it, Li Qi planned to take advantage of this time to urge them to practice cooking, because there was really not much time left for them.

However, learning to cook is not an overnight thing, just like learning kung fu, you have to rely on long-term practice to make progress, but Li Qi wants to take advantage of this time to teach them some basic skills, such as knife work, washing and shopping, and understanding of food.

Don't wait until the time when the Drunken Immortal Residence is officially opened, if he still has to do these things himself, then he won't be busy to death.

As for seasoning and cooking, Li Qi plans to teach them when he cooks himself in the future.

Early the next morning, Li Qi first asked the Zhuzi brothers to fry tofu at the door, and he taught Wu Xiaoliu cooking skills in the kitchen, first of course, sharpening knives.

Don't underestimate this sharpening knife, Li Qi followed his father to sharpen the knife for three years, if a chef can't even sharpen a knife, can he still be called a chef?

As long as you sharpen the knife for a few years, you will naturally be able to tell what kind of knife is a good knife.

When Wu Xiaoliu first heard that Li Qi was going to teach him cooking, he was very excited, but later when he heard Li Qi ask him to sharpen his knife, his enthusiasm suddenly came to naught.

However, Li Qi did not explain to him, this kind of thing, others say that it is useless, and you have to rely on yourself to experience it.

After the pillar brothers were busy, Li Qi also asked the two of them to sharpen their knives with Wu Xiaoliu, and taught them all the skills of sharpening knives and some of their own experience.

Next, Li Qi took some knife techniques, such as cutting, chopping, chopping, and some techniques on how to handle the form of food, such as silk, segments, dices, and blocks.

These things alone are enough for them to learn for a few months.

Whenever they were practicing, Li Qi kept telling them not to be lazy and to practice hard.

Because this knife skill is enough to directly affect the four key elements of a dish: color, aroma, taste and shape. It's like the foundation of a building, if the foundation is not laid, no matter how gorgeous and majestic it is, it is just a dangerous building.

Among the three apprentices, Wu Xiaoliu has the highest talent, but he is not as hard as the pillar brothers, so after a few days, the level of the three of them is almost the same.

In fact, the kitchen can only be regarded as a chef's second battlefield, and the first battlefield is the vegetable market.

Grocery shopping is also a skill, and how to pick out the best and most suitable ingredients from a pile of uneven ingredients is also very important for chefs.

On this day, Li Qi took three apprentices to the pork shop of the bear butcher on Mahang Street.

"What kind of meat is this?" Li Qi asked, pointing to a piece of lean meat on the board.

"Pork."

Wu Xiaoliu and the three replied.

Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "This is hind leg meat." He sighed and said, "This piece of meat is thick and tender, how to do it?" ”

Wu Xiaoliu said with a smile: "Of course, good meat is good to make." ”

The pillar brothers nodded yes one after another.

"I don't know, right?"

Li Qi glanced at them angrily and said, "Shredding, slicing, stewing, stewing, and sauce are all fine." As he spoke, he picked up the piece of meat again and handed it to Wu Xiaoliu: "How much does this piece of meat weigh?" ”

Wu Xiaoliu pork shook it a few times and said, "It's more than a catty." Then he handed it to the pillar brothers.

Chen Xiaozhu tried it and said, "I don't think there should be a catty." ”

"I said a pound and a half."

"What is a pound and a half, more than a pound, is a pound and two taels."

Li Qi sighed, shook his head dissatisfiedly, picked up the piece of meat and handed it to the bear butcher, "Uncle, I want this piece of meat." ”

The bear butcher weighed the scale, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said in surprise: "This little brother, you are really good eyesight, just one pound and two taels." ”

Li Qi smiled politely, and then looked at the three apprentices, and said: "To be a chef, ingredients are the basic skills, how many catties are there, you have to know in your heart, don't ask you to fry two plates of the same dish at that time, as a result, one plate uses one catty of meat, and the other plate uses half a catty of meat, so that if you serve it out, the guest must not scold us to death, and when you catch the seasoning, how do you catch it?" How much to catch? Could it be that I have to hire a guy for you to weigh it for you? Remember, no matter what you buy in the future, you have to pay attention to this, you know? ”

"Yes."

Li Qi asked them to take the meat, and then came to an old man selling fish on the street, pointed to the big fish basket in front of the father with ** carp and said, "You three pick out the three freshest fish in it for me." ”

When the three of them heard this, they squatted down and studied it.

After a while, the three of them each chose what they thought was the freshest fish.

Li Qi glanced at the past, and saw that the fish in the hands of the three people, one was bigger than the other, and he was almost angry, and said angrily: "You think it's gold, the bigger the better, you look at the fish you chose, either the fish eyes are concave, or the fish body has lost its luster, this look knows that it is not fresh, you are really kind enough, pick all the worst away, and leave the good ones to others." ”

The three of them were temperless by Li Qixun, bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Then Li Qi took these three guys and walked around the market a few times, every time he saw some foods or seasonings that are more commonly used on weekdays, Li Qi took the trouble to explain to them the taste of these foods, what dishes they can make, and the pros and cons of the body, and occasionally told them a few stories about food to increase their interest.

Wu Xiaoliu and the three of them, although their basic skills are poor, they are diligent and serious enough, and they dare to ask questions when they encounter something they don't understand.

Naturally, Richie explained to them over and over again until they all understood.
