"Hehe, in fact, thinking about it like this, I'm quite happy in my heart~"

Ning Xin laughed heartily, if she ignored the mist in her eyes.

"Ning Xin, whether he still loves you or not, I will always be by your side." Sun Chen stepped forward in distress and hugged Ning Xin's thin body.

"yes, I know." Ning Xin closed her eyes, and her heart was at peace. "So this time, I want to go to Dingshengju to work, give him, and give myself a chance."

“…… Good. ”

……

Early the next morning, Sun Chen and Ning Xin came to Xing Lu to report with their luggage on their backs.

"Let's go!" Yesterday, he had already completed all the work at hand, and Xing Lu came over today just to take Sun Chen and the two of them to Dingshengju to report.

……

Dingshengju was about an hour's drive from Juewei Pot, so when Xing Lu and the others arrived, it was already close to noon.

Compared with the strong Bashu style of Juewei pot, the overall style of Dingshengju is a little heavier than the traditional Lu provincial atmosphere.

The simple and beautiful black and red design is elegant and dignified and stable. Putting aside his previous impression of Ning Guotong's scumbag, Sun Chen had to admit that his aesthetics were really good. Although none of these in front of him may be from him, but the decoration of the prosperous residence as the banner of his commercial kingdom, which design is finally chosen, still needs him to make the decision, right?

After reporting his name at the reception desk, Xing Lu took Sun Chen and Ning Xin to the back kitchen of the hotel with ease.

"Don't look at me like that, I've been here for two years, and I'm very familiar with this place." As soon as Xing Lu saw Sun Chen and Ning Xin's appearances, she knew what they were thinking now.

Sun Chen and Ning Xin glanced at each other and did not speak in tacit understanding.

After walking for about ten minutes, they came to the 'military center' of the prosperous residence - the back kitchen.

"Hey, what kind of wind is blowing today, and Sister Xing is here!"

As soon as they entered, someone immediately recognized Xing Lu with sharp eyes, and his loud voice attracted most of the people in the kitchen to look at them.

"Sister Xing, are you here?"

"It's really Sister Xing!"

"Xing Lu is here? It's been a long time since we've seen each other! ”

"It's coming, Xing Lu!"

“……”

"Yes, Xing Lu, last time you said you were going to teach me that dish, but there is no shadow of it until now, but it's not because you're afraid of me that you don't dare to come over to play, right?" A thin man with a towel around his neck walked over, although it was already autumn, but there were so many stoves in the kitchen, even if he was only wearing short-sleeved overalls, he still couldn't stop sweating after a busy day.

Nowadays, not only other industries need to continue to learn and improve, but even their chefs must keep up with the development of the times.

Liking the new and hating the old is not only for the relationship between men and women, but also for the change of tastes of guests. If you haven't been in the industry for a while, you won't necessarily be able to keep up with it after a while.

There will also be formal or private exchanges between their chefs every once in a while, and each other can take this opportunity to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and make progress together.

Of course, for their own special skills, they are all covered like eyeballs. In a lofty phrase, it is simply an intangible cultural heritage, absolutely absolute, and it can only be taught to future generations or to the closed disciples who have performed the apprenticeship.

"Where can I be, Brother Dajun, what is there to be afraid of just my two moments? It's not that I didn't find someone to replace the pot some time ago, and I can't leave! No, I'll come over as soon as I'm free! ”

is different from the pretending to be old in front of Sun Chen and them, Xing Lu at this moment is more like a little sister next door who has been wronged, because her brother's words are trying to explain, for fear that others will annoy her because of this.

This made Sun Chen very interesting to watch. Compared with the orderly kitchen in the Juewei Pot, he felt that the large kitchen of the prosperous residence was more humane.

It's not that the chefs of Juewei Pot are unfriendly, they are very kind to their colleagues, even interns like Sun Chen, and they will not shrink back if they can help, but the conversation between them will never be as intimate as it is now.

Xing Lu, of course, felt more deeply about these.

In Juewei Pot, colleagues are good partners, good partners, they work together to do their duty, and perfectly complete the work assigned to them, and here in Dingshengju, Xing Lu and them seem to be more like friends and family.

Colleagues, partners and partners will always break up one day, and friends, family, get along for a lifetime, there may be friction and disputes, but when they turn their heads, they can love each other as if they were all right.

"How long can you stay this time?" Someone asked her.

"Almost half a year!" Xing Lu replied.

"For so long, will that there be willing?"

"If you don't want to, you have to be willing! If you push me, I won't leave in the heyday! Xing Lu said with some shame.

Sun Chen was puzzled when he heard this, didn't Xing Lu say that they were here to communicate? Time shouldn't be discussed in advance, so how can she use her will as a criterion to decide how long she stays here?

"Yo, you actually brought an attendant this time?" Finally, someone noticed Sun Chen and Ning Xin, and asked, "Is this your apprentice?" ”

"Sort of!" Xing Lu glanced at the two of them, raised her eyebrows and smiled.

From the moment she entered the prosperous residence, there was something wrong with Ning Xin, but Xing Lu didn't seem to see it, and introduced it to everyone: "This is Sun Chen, Ning Xin, they are all interns of Juewei Pot this year, I saw that the two little guys were quite enterprising, so I took them with me to teach for a few days." ”

Everyone knows.

Everyone has their own standards for the selection of apprentices, but they have known Xing Lu for so long, and they have never seen her teach apprentices. Obviously, these two little guys not only have the advantage of being enterprising, but they can get the blue eyes of Xing Lu, who has always been picky, and the smiles on Sun Chen and Ning Xin are more sincere.

The two of them didn't expect to enjoy such enthusiasm, and they smiled at everyone at a loss, if it wasn't for the meal time soon, Sun Chen would have suspected that these people would have interrogated all the eighteen generations of his ancestors.

Such enthusiasm is really unbearable~

"Okay, let's get to work after the old days, let's go over there." After greeting everyone, Xing Lu took Sun Chen and Ning Xin to the corner, where there was an empty stove that no one used.

"I didn't arrange your dishes today, I'll send you a job in the evening!"

The lotus king of the lotus group patted Xing Lu's shoulder and grinned.

"It's okay, a few of us will cook a meal for the big guy at noon today, so that we can buy everyone's account!" Xing Lu said nonchalantly.

A chef of Xing Lu's level no longer has to eat dead wages, even if that dead salary can be at least five or six thousand yuan. Their biggest source of income is the chef's signature dishes on the hotel menu, and they don't have unlimited supplies every day.

Every chef who can carry the banner has a few dishes of his own, and if the guest orders it, five percent of the cost of the dish will be counted as the chef's income alone. This income is enough to exceed the income of a gold collar who works in a Fortune 500 company.

It's just that compared to the gold collar, their work is not so decent.

……

"Okay, don't be stunned by the two of you, let's see how many people are in our kitchen, you two will draw up a menu for me to treat at noon, just count the people in the big kitchen!"

Well, although all the ingredients are made from Dingshengju, this meal was completed by a few of them, and it can barely be regarded as a treat!

Sun Chen and Ning Xin looked at it, and there were more than thirty people in the entire big kitchen.

Even if it is a table of fifteen or sixteen people, it will be divided into two tables.

Sun Chen and Ning Xin discussed and discussed, set the specifications of the banquet in the middle range, and quickly drew up a menu that included six cold dishes, six vegetarian dishes, six meat dishes, two dim sum, two fruit plates, and two soups.

This is an essential lesson in a chef's school.

According to the requirements and tastes of the guests, as well as the acceptable price, as much as possible to make the whole table look a little taller, this homework, Ning Xin often gets full marks. Sun Chen is a little inferior, that is, he can barely do it.

In fact, he will always be confused about arithmetic, and he will end up with a bad account.

"It's not bad, let's prepare it according to the menu! Snacks, fruits, vegetables, and meat were all asked for by the little fat man standing at the door. ”

What Xing Lu said was the first person who found out that she greeted her, that is, in her twenties, although her face was round and a little baby fat, but she was really not to the extent of being called fat.

Sun Chen found him and explained his intentions, and the man happily led the two to the storage room.

"Now, the fruit is here, the vegetables are there, the chicken and duck are in the refrigerator on the left, and the fresh-keeping cabinet on the right has freshly peeled shrimp, processed fresh fish, and sour beef. Just go to the pastry team to ask for dim sum at the end, and if you need anything, you can come to me! ”

The little fat classmate was very enthusiastic, introduced them to the two of them one by one, and asked at the end: "Can you two handle so many things?" Why don't I get some for you first? ”

I really have to ask him to help with this favor.

Sun Chen and they only have four hands, Ning Xin is still a girl, even if there is a cart, Sun Chen is only willing to let her push lighter things, such as vegetables and the like, so Sun Chen has to take most of the meat.

"Then please ask Brother Qiang to help me bring these fish and beef over!"

The corners of Hadron's mouth twitched, he was just a few polite words, this guy was even serious? But one for each of the two carts, you want me to carry it over with great effort?!

But the promise he made, even if he was kneeling, he had to fulfill it, Qiangzi gritted his teeth, and lifted a three-yellow and white-striped chicken with both hands at the same time.

……

Xing Lu's 'we' is indeed worthy of the name. During the whole cooking process, she only helped master the heat of the seasoning when a few meat dishes were put into the pot, and almost did not interfere with the other dishes.

Ren is Sun Chen and Ning Xin were busy there, and she just watched idly.

Finally brought all the meals to the table, Sun Chen only felt relaxed.

At this time, he realized that Ning Xin, who had been cooperating with him tacitly, was already tired and her little face turned white.

"Drink water and gasp for air." Handing her her own water cup, Sun Chen opened his mouth with some distress.

Ning Xin took the water glass, took a sip and handed it back to him.

If it were in normal times, these jobs would not be so difficult for them, but Ning Xin was already a little unsuitable because this place was Ning Guotong's prosperous residence, and it was indeed a little unbearable to impose such heavy labor on her.

……

"Come on, come on, let's not be polite!"

Everyone went to the table and greeted Sun Chen and Ning Xin warmly, but for Xing Lu, no one greeted them.

Sun Chen knew that this was because Xing Lu was their own person, and they didn't need to greet them at all.

"This bean sprouts have been fried, and then ten seconds before the pot is cooked, and it is designated as refreshing."

"When you marinated this shredded meat, you must have put dark soy sauce to color, right? It's too much~"

"You didn't clean the fishy line, and when you fried it in the pan, you put too much oil, look at this old oil! Either you can skim it clean when you come out of the pot, or who can eat it if you don't see this layer of oil? ”

"The taste is decent, but the taste is not very special......"

“……”

The chef's occupational disease, eating every dish will habitually comment on it, but most of the time it is in the heart.

And when there are some special circumstances, they will also point them out bluntly, and this special situation is when others take the initiative to ask for it, or when they have a very good relationship with the other party.

Of course, Sun Chen was not familiar with them to such a point, and the reason why they could still be like this was purely what Xing Lu requested.

As soon as everyone sat down, she told everyone not to be polite, despite the criticism, sure enough, these people did not disappoint her.

Although they were mentally prepared and knew their cooking skills, everyone's comments still made Sun Chen and Ning Xin a little embarrassed, but they also knew that everyone said so much for their own good, and if they didn't take them in their eyes, they could have remained silent.

And whether these criticisms or corrections are good, they will only be good for their future cooking skills.

So no matter who said anything, they all nodded humbly.

For their attitude, everyone is obviously very satisfied. He also gave Xing Lu a lot of approving glances.

After all, if you don't have good cooking skills, you can work hard to learn, and character problems are not so easy to correct.

It can be seen that the two children brought by Xing Lu are both thorough and want to make progress, otherwise they would have changed their faces long ago if they just said something like this.
