It's the height of summer now, people stay at home or in the mall on a hot day, and occasionally a few people wandering on the street are listless, Ye Qiu also feels that she is about to smoke, but who made her have no money in her hand, and she can only walk after getting off the bus.

And she has to find a job, and she has no goal, so she can only walk and watch, which is even hotter.

After walking two blocks and discovering that summer jobs only recruit waiters or hand out flyers, she herself walks into a Chinese restaurant that looks relatively upscale.

"Eating alone? Guest inside please. Although Ye Qiu was dressed more ordinarily today, and even said that he was down-and-out, the waiter still did not show the slightest look of contempt, which proved that the management of this restaurant was very good.

"I'll find your boss and chef."

The waiter paused for a moment, and then reacted: "Is there something wrong?" Can I talk to us first? ”

"My ancestors learned to cook, and my grandfather said that my skills have basically passed, so let me come out and practice on my own, so I want to compete with your chefs." Ye Qiu's face was not red, and his heart was not beating, and he made up a reason.

The waiter probably saw that Ye Qiu was young and didn't care about her, so he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Little sister, we are not as good as cooking here, you better go home!" ”

"Why not compare? Are you afraid of losing? After saying this, Ye Qiu said a word of offense in his heart.

The waiter really frowned, but he was still very patient: "Our chef is very busy, so he doesn't have time to entertain you." ”

"Then I'll wait for him." As he spoke, Ye Qiu sat down on a chair outside the restaurant and picked up the brochure of their store to read.

There was no air conditioning outside the restaurant, and because of the heat in the room, it was even more uncomfortable, and after a while, Ye Qiu's cheeks were covered with sweat, and his cheeks were red.

The waiter saw that Ye Qiu was so stubborn, and was afraid that she would suffer from heat stroke if she sat down again, so he had to report the matter to their boss.

The owner of this restaurant, who also serves as the head chef, heard the report of the clerk and put down the shovel in his hand and said, "Did you hear me right? That little girl wants to try her hand at cooking with me? Still out and not leaving? ”

"Yes, boss, I'm afraid there will be problems if she waits any longer."

"Ade, you look at the fire, I'll go out and have a look."

"Yes, boss."

The door of the store opened from the inside, Ye Qiu stood up and looked at the person in front of him, he was very tall, and his facial features were also very handsome, although he was wearing a chef's uniform, he didn't look like a chef, but like a teacher.

"You're looking for me? Little sister, come in and talk about something. As he spoke, he led Ye Qiu to a dining table against the wall.

The decoration of this restaurant is very elegant, and the overall style is dominated by flowing water and lotus flowers, giving people a very fresh and comfortable feeling.

"Hello, my name is Ye Qiu." She greeted people with a smile, and stretched out her thin little hand, which had finally turned white after two days of spiritual spring water recuperation.

Looking at these hands, He Jiangnan couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't even pick up this pot, and he came to try his cooking skills with him? But out of politeness, and in order not to hit a little girl's self-esteem, he also stretched out his hand to shake it back: "Hello, my name is He Jiangnan." ”

"Where is Jiangnan?" Ye Qiu blurted out subconsciously.

The smile in the man's eyes deepened: "That's it, how about it, do you think my name matches my restaurant?" ”

"A good match." Ye Qiu nodded sincerely, and then said seriously, "Are you a chef?" I'm a good cook. ”

He Jiangnan looked at the serious little girl and tried to reason with her: "We are a very formal restaurant here, and the dishes are all dishes that I have created that match the style of the restaurant, so even if you are a good chef, I will not recruit you, not to mention that you should not be under eighteen years old, right?" It's illegal to recruit minors, so Ye Qiu, how about I treat you to a meal and then go home? ”

"But how do you know I can't do it without trying? My cooking skills are really good, why don't we compare? See whose dish is more popular with customers? ”

Seeing that she was still so persistent, the waiter before couldn't help but speak: "Little sister, our boss doesn't care about you, this is not a place to mess around." ”

"Try it, just one dish, and if you think I'm not doing well, I'll leave immediately." Ye Qiu looked at He Jiangnan insistively.

"Okay, you and I come over, but I made it clear, just this time, don't mess around again in the future, otherwise no matter how old you are, I will call the police." He Jiangnan said with a straight face, but his very handsome face, even if it was an annoyed expression, it didn't make people feel scared.

"Thank you!" Ye Qiu stood up and bowed to him.

Seeing that she was so polite, He Jiangnan couldn't get angry anymore, and reluctantly took her to the back kitchen.

"Boss, who is this! How to go out and bring back a little sister. The apprentice named Ade just now laughed.

"Little sister, be careful, I just dragged the ground, and the ground is a little slippery." Another young man who was preparing a side dish was also laughing.

"What's going on, Jiangnan?" In addition to them, there was also a middle-aged man in the kitchen who was stir-frying, who looked a little similar to the boss He Jiangnan.

"Dad, this little sister has to try her cooking skills with me, so I brought her in." He Jiangnan's expression was very helpless, and then he said to Ye Qiu, "The side dishes are here, what do you want to do?" ”

"In order not to delay your time, I will make the simplest lotus pond stir-fry!" Ye Qiu looked at those lotus roots and snow peas.

The apprentice named Ade laughed even more when he heard Ye Qiu say this: "Little sister, you probably don't know, this is my master's best dish, and he also added lotus seeds to it, which is even more refreshing and delicious, don't cry if you lose!" ”

"You don't have to say a word." He Jiangnan glared at his apprentice, then looked at Ye Qiu again, "Since you decided, let's start!" ”

"Can I chop my own vegetables?" Pointing to those white and tender lotus roots.

"Of course." After He Jiangnan finished speaking, another apprentice named Ah Jin moved out of the way.

I thought that Ye Qiu was a child who deliberately came to find trouble today, but as soon as she picked up the knife, He Jiangnan and his father looked at him.

Although her wrists were very thin and her hands were not big, the knife was very stable, and the joints on both sides of the lotus root were removed in three or two clicks.

The sound ......of chopping vegetables sounded, and the frequency seemed to have been set, as if the lotus root slices had been set, and each piece was almost exactly the same.

"Awesome!" Ah Jin's eyes lit up, he and Ah De are both He Jiangnan's apprentices, Ah De's talent is higher, and now he can take charge of some dishes, but he is still practicing chopping vegetables, he thinks that his knife skills are good, but today he knows that he lost.
