He Jiangnan walked to Ye Qiu's side, picked up a piece of lotus root slices and observed it carefully, judging from his years of chef experience, this lotus root slices are not thin or thick, if the time of stir-frying is properly controlled, it must be both flavorful and crispy.

Lotus root stir-fried in lotus pond This dish is recognized as an indispensable side dish, of course, some will also add some other things in an ingenious way, such as lotus seeds or Huaishan, etc., but Ye Qiu is not going to add anything else today, the most basic can make people see the real skills.

"I'm ready." Ye Qiu put his cut vegetables on a plate and said to He Jiangnan.

He looked at the two vacated stoves with a much more serious look than before: "You choose one for yourself." ”

Ye Qiu didn't get entangled, he stood in front of a stove close to him at will, and then skillfully turned on the fire, washed the pot, and oiled it, and the whole action was done in one go.

Ah De and Ah Jin looked at her thin wrists in horror, for fear that she would not be able to hold the pot and smash herself, but He Jiangnan's father on the side watched this scene with interest.

He is an old chef, his son has been learning to cook with him since he was a child, although he graduated from a prestigious school, he did not engage in his own job after graduation, and resolutely did not listen to the advice to come back and open such a restaurant.

It turned out that his son was really talented, and he created a recipe about lotus ponds and Jiangnan, which attracted a lot of diners.

But it is also because of his talent, it is inevitable to have some arrogance after a long time, it is not a bad thing for people to be arrogant, he is afraid that his son will become more and more arrogant in the future, and he will not listen to the advice of others.

Old Father He looked at it with a smile, hoping that this competition would not disappoint him.

Maybe Ye Qiu's movements were too skillful and natural, He Jiangnan frequently looked at Ye Qiu when he was stir-frying, but even so, it didn't affect his performance.

The two turned off the heat almost at the same time and served at the same time, first of all, as soon as the dishes came out, everyone's eyes unconsciously looked at Ye Qiu's side, not that He Jiangnan's was bad, but that Ye Qiu's was too good.

Each piece of porcelain white lotus root of the same size is soaked with luster, and the tender green snow peas and black fungus are embellished, and the three simple side dishes attract everyone's attention.

Looking at He Jiangnan again, he is the head chef of this restaurant, and he can attract so many customers, and his cooking skills are naturally not bad, but compared to Ye Qiu's, he is a little worse.

He Jiangnan frowned, Ade and Ajin didn't speak, and Old Father He picked up his chopsticks and said with a smile: "On the dishes, Jiangnan, you lost a layer, let's taste it again." ”

He picked up his son's first, and then nodded: "Yes, the level is very good, the lotus root is crisp, the snow peas are fresh and tender, and the fungus has also absorbed enough soup." ”

As soon as he said this, He Jiangnan's brows loosened a little, Ah De and Ah Jin also hurriedly tasted it, Ye Qiu also tried it, and after eating, he didn't speak, but pushed his dish forward.

Perhaps her gaze was too confident, He Jiangnan was even more suspicious, and he was the first to stretch out his chopsticks, and Old Father He followed closely.

"Huh?" As soon as the lotus root was in their mouth, the two of them widened their eyes, and then quickly took a piece and tasted it carefully.

How, exactly? Ade and Ajin Baba watched, and when they saw that the two of them had eaten the lotus root and eaten snow peas, and even the fungus was almost gone, the two of them also began to taste it.

"Delicious!" The two exclaimed at the same time, and then couldn't wait to continue clamping.

He Jiangnan put down his chopsticks and sighed at this time, looking at Ye Qiu with burning eyes, but Old He looked at his son and said, "Jiangnan, you know what it is today that there are people outside the world!" ”

"I lost." There was frustration in his tone.

Ye Qiu grinned: "So can I work in your restaurant now?" ”

"Nope." He Jiangnan still refused.

"Why? She was puzzled and asked, "Obviously, my food is delicious." ”

He Jiangnan smiled: "Little sister, I promised to compete with you, and I didn't promise that you can come to work in my store if you win, you are only fifteen years old, even if you are good at cooking, I can't hire you." ”

Ye Qiu's face bulged into a small pufferfish, which made the other people amused.

"Isn't it okay for me to be a summer job?" She spoke pitifully again.

Old Father He stepped forward and asked, "Little girl, do you have any difficulties?" ”

Ye Qiu didn't hide it, and said very bluntly: "I'm short of money." ”

He Jiangnan actually noticed at the beginning that the little girl in front of him was wearing a T-shirt with no style, a pair of washed white jeans underneath, and a pair of simple washed and yellowed little white shoes, so he knew that she estimated that her family background was not good.

"Where's your mom and dad?" He couldn't help but ask.

"My dad died ten years ago, my mom married a new uncle, and I have two older brothers and a younger sister at home."

Two brothers and a sister? Plus she doesn't have four children? If this ordinary family raises four children, it is really difficult to listen, if the stepfather is not good to her?

He Jiangnan and his father looked at each other, and finally sighed helplessly: "Let's go out and talk!" ”

Ye Qiu obediently followed him out, and he asked the waiter just now to serve two glasses of iced sour plum juice: "That's it, I can let you work with me, but we can't sign a contract, if someone asks, you just say that you are here to help." ”

"Am I being hired?" Ye Qiu looked up happily.

He Jiangnan couldn't help but say to her: "Aren't you afraid that I'm a liar?" Aren't you afraid that I'll let you work and not pay you? ”

"Don't be afraid." Ye Qiu had an expression on his face that I believed you.

He Jiangnan's heart softened: "The salary is calculated according to the number of dishes you make, I will provide the dishes and ingredients, I will give you five yuan for a simple dish, and more than eight yuan for a complex dish, what do you think?" ”

"Can I create my own dishes?"

"Yes."

"Thank you boss!" Ye Qiu stood up and bowed happily, she knew that for a minor, this reward could be said to be very generous, after all, as long as she put in the labor, the dishes and ingredients were ready-made.

More work and more rewards, and she believes in her cooking skills, if she is not lazy, she will soon be able to have a little electric donkey of her own.

In fact, Boss He was even more generous than she imagined, and after knowing that her home was far away from here, he first lent her the small electric donkey in the store.

Because she was eager to make money, she went to the back kitchen after talking to the boss, and she was busy until nine o'clock in the evening, and she did live up to her expectations, and many guests who had eaten her dishes said that today's dishes tasted better.

Boss He was both happy and worried, happy that the guest's evaluation was higher, worried that Ye Qiu would go to school in the future, and the guest would not be able to eat such a dish, what should I do?
