[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Zhao Xihou's attack in front of Mrs. Wang was not successful, Wang Jiuzhi even told him to study hard, the door of the Wang family can be said to be closed to him, and he just wants to go to the Wang family in the future, and he is not available. In December, the sudden arrival of Mrs. Zhao was the sacrifice of the whole family for the New Year...... The year passed like this, and the new year came with the sound of firecrackers.
On the tenth day of the first month, a young man knocked on the door of the Wang family, and to Ruixue's surprise, it was Chen Mao. It's just that I haven't seen him for more than half a year, Chen Mao is much better than he used to be in Nanjing, the materials on his body are also extraordinarily fine, and he has a jade pendant on his waist, and the whole person is in great spirits.
Chen Mao was also surprised to see Rui Xue: "Why are you here?" ”
"Why can't I be here. You're here ......."
Chen Mao smiled: "I'm here to see Imperial Chef Wang." Are you here...... Master is here too? ”
Rui Xue nodded: "Are you okay?" After going to Beijing, there was no news of you, everyone was very worried about you, and Xiaocao and they missed you very much. "Xiaocao is Chen Mao's younger sister.
"I didn't enter the imperial dining room and wanted to enter, but after I entered, I realized that it was not the same thing. At first, he didn't let you communicate, saying that he would spread the news from the palace to the outside; Later, when I stayed in the imperial dining room, I was busy doing things and I didn't have time. ”
Rui Xue listened to Chen Mao's simple explanation, and although he looked very good, there was hardship in his words: "After all, I have a foothold in the imperial dining room." I heard that Gao Shengfeng was kicked out? ”
Chen Mao nodded: "The Wanshou Festival has not yet arrived, and there are few left." "The speed of the imperial dining room is very fast, and you can be driven away for any reason, everything is counted by those two words.
Chen Mao said with a smile: "I used to complain that the master gave me too few things, but after walking all the way, I felt that the master's explanation was every word. Do you remember that when Master taught us how to cook, he never talked about how to choose ingredients? ”
Rui Xue nodded, of course she remembered: "It seems that there is a reason for hearing you say so." ”
"For good reason, of course. If you hadn't spent time in the Imperial Dining Room, no one would have believed that cooking should not depend on the quality of the ingredients. Chen Mao shook his head and told Rui Xue, "It's the crab sent by our Nan Zhili, and it's good that one basket can survive in ten baskets." Double Ninth Festival, long live to feast the ministers to appreciate chrysanthemums and eat crabs, how can that basket be enough. Only take something else to fill up. Except for Banzai and a few people close to him who can eat the real thing, the rest is to make a show. ”
"Ahh Rui Xue obviously couldn't accept this fact, she didn't expect that the emperor's banquet was fake.
Chen Mao thought about the things in the imperial dining room, and only felt that this was nothing, the pork in the emperor's mouth changed with the mood of the people in the imperial dining room, and they could also make the pork delicious and send it after two days. Wang Jiuzhi didn't ask him to choose the ingredients at the beginning, but in fact, the real meaning was here.
He also thought that because Wang Jiuzhi only asked him to cook three types of dishes, and didn't mention anything else, he was the only cook left in the imperial dining room. Because he is an apprentice, unlike those masters who are already accustomed to the atmosphere, he knows to be respectful; Because he didn't know anything except fish and bamboo shoots, the people in the imperial dining room didn't take themselves seriously, so he stayed with the two of them.
He saw with his own eyes that Gao Shengfeng, who was unpretentious and powerful, was driven out like a wild dog. He had seen for himself how much of an apprentice he didn't know much had in the Imperial Dining Room.
Everything has to be learned here, you know more before, you don't learn more here, what you did well before is not as good as what you do here. He also had times when he was reprimanded by the imperial chef, but it was because he really did not do well, not framed.
"Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Chen."
Chen Mao finally pulled out the memories of the previous months, and he smiled weakly at Rui Xue. The matter of the imperial dining room had consumed too much thought for him, and he didn't want to stay any longer.
"Let's go inside! It's cold outside. ”
Chen Mao smiled and handed over the New Year's gift to Rui Xue, and asked Rui Xue: "Why are you here?" Mo is not ......" Chen Mao remembered that his master was surnamed Wang, and Mo was not the family here.
"Ruixue, who is it that doesn't come in outside?"
Wang Jiuzhi's voice came out, Chen Mao was stunned, he sorted out his clothes, strode into the house, walked in front of Wang Jiuzhi, and bowed to him to congratulate the New Year.
Wang Jiuzhi was very happy to see Chen Mao, and took out a red envelope for him: "It turned out to be you." I said how Ruixue had been talking to the same people outside for so long. Let me see Imperial Chef Chen, is he doing well! ”
Chen Mao said embarrassedly: "It's all thanks to Master's cultivation." ”
Wang Che came later, he was a little surprised to see Chen Mao talking to Wang Jiuzhi affectionately, but he just nodded at Chen Mao: "It's you!" He pointed out to Wang Jiu again, "This is Chen Mao, the master of the imperial dining room, and Banzai likes the fish he makes very much." ”
Chen Mao congratulated Wang Che on the New Year, but said, "This is a lowly master. ”
Wang Che was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I said why Chen Mao's craftsmanship is so good, it turned out to be the apprentice of the eldest brother." Then he ordered his servants to invite the old lady Wang.
The most shocked person was Chen Mao, he had thought that Wang Jiuzhi was a relative of the Wang family, the top spot in the imperial dining room, but he didn't expect that his master would be the heir of the Wang family.
Now all his mysteries are solved. Unless you are a person who has been in the imperial dining room, how can you be so clear about the rules of the imperial dining room. How could you know that the emperor prefers fish and bamboo shoots by mistake? The dishes that were the most careful to guide themselves were the emperor's favorites, and all of this was revealed.
He couldn't help but think of a piece of news circulating up and down the imperial dining room, about the last Wang family who was on an errand in the imperial dining room. The conspiracy of those imperial chefs to unite in order to get rid of the people of the Wang family...... How could the master, whom he knew, put salt in the milk crucian carp soup?
Prince, concubine...... And those behind them...... Chen Mao couldn't help but think of the old man Song he had met the day before yesterday, and what he confessed......
"What are you thinking? You don't pay attention to me when I talk to you. Now that you're a chef, you look down on me? ”
Chen Mao looked at Wang Jiuzhi, who was joking with him, and said with a sneer: "I'm thinking about Master's usual teachings. I was so stupid, I thought a little more and I should have figured out that Master should have been in the Imperial Dining Room. ”
Wang Jiuzhi waved his hand: "I heard that you are doing a good job in the imperial dining room, I am very relieved." If you do it for a few more years, you'll be able to take over your siblings. ”
Chen Mao smiled: "It's still the masters who love each other, and as for the younger brothers and sisters, let them stay in front of the master." I have been in the imperial dining room, and I have not been able to come out for a long time, so I took them and abandoned them. ”
Wang Che smiled and said, "We just want you to carry you, and we also want you to have a chance." I usually look at him well, but I didn't expect to be my eldest brother's apprentice. ”
Wang Jiuzhi smiled: "He is good himself." I taught him only half a month younger, and he learned it all by himself. ”
Wang Che clapped his hands and said, "I mean! Chen Mao just entered the imperial dining room and didn't even know how to pick ingredients, and he would do whatever he caught. Master Dong was half angry with him, and the golden silk blood swallow that Hainan paid tribute to, this kid broke one without thinking about it. Chef Dong only said, how can there be chefs who have been selected from all over the world to even deal with bird's nest? I thought he was just careless, but he didn't want to know anything except fish and bamboo shoots. It's either salty or light, and in the end he can't be pushed to stay with the apprentice, and the apprentice can't stand him. ”
Wang Jiuzhi listened to Wang Che's narration, looked at Chen Mao, and smiled slightly: "He can only make fish." I'm also strange, I don't know anything from the church, and when I get to make fish, I can catch it. Later, I learned that his family was poor and could not afford to buy meat, so he could only fish in the river. ”
Wang Che suddenly realized: "No wonder you can make fish, it turns out that this is the case." Big brother doesn't know yet. The fish ball soup made by Chen Mao is very delicious, Banzai likes it very much, and even his grandfather is full of praise for the fish ball soup. ”
Chen Mao smiled embarrassedly.
"Which one of you makes me so impressed?" Old lady Wang came in on crutches, looked at Chen Mao and said, "This is ......"
Wang Che hugged the old lady Wang and said: "This is Chen Mao, who I talked to my grandfather about on weekdays, but I didn't expect him to be the apprentice of the eldest brother." Our Wang family is out again. ”
Old lady Wang looked at Chen Mao, asked a few more words, and explained: "Since you are here, don't be idle, today's lunch is ready for you." ”
Chen Mao knew under Wang Jiuzhi's signal that Old Lady Wang was going to consider that he was busy.
Rui Xue watched Chen Mao go out and slipped over. She smiled at Chen Mao and said, "Even the second uncle praises you." ”】
Chen Mao smiled, but he looked around and saw that no one was looking at Rui Xue: "It's still thanks to my junior sister." Now my specialty is from my sister's hands. ”
Ruixue hurriedly dodged: "I'm just doing it nonsense." The day before yesterday, I also made fish ball soup, and I was preached by my grandfather for a long time, saying that I didn't make it delicious, since my grandfather praised you, there must be your reasons. ”
Chen Mao nodded: "It's just that I think about it a lot." "There are many masters in the palace, and a dish must be changed in a thousand ways to cater to the appetites of those masters, and he can survive there.
He thought for a while and whispered, "Ruixue, do you remember that Master Song?" ”
"Of course, what's wrong?"
Chen Mao sighed, not knowing what to say, this matter ......
"Are you talking about it, but you don't say it, is it fun to see me in a hurry?" Ruixue said half-annoyedly.
Chen Mao shook his head: "I only knew that this Master Song was unusual when I entered Beijing. I heard from the people in the imperial dining room that he had a sister in the palace, I don't know, right? ”
Rui Xue nodded: "There is one." I heard that I am not the same mother as Master Song. ”
"Then what is their relationship......" Chen Mao asked anxiously.
Ruixue shook her head: "I don't know about this." But I rarely heard Mrs. Song mention it, it was Cuiyun, she didn't seem to like that, and I don't know. What does this do, you ask? Isn't it ......"
Chen Mao smiled: "No. It's just that I went to the capital to help the shopkeeper transfer the letter, and I learned that Master Song is very unusual in the capital, and I heard that his sister is the palace heir. I heard in the imperial dining room the day before yesterday that I was going to make up for a pregnant Song Chengyu, and I wanted to ask if it was the sister of the old man Song. After all, Master Song gave me such a chance, I want to ......"
"That's right!" Rui Xue immediately responded, "I will see Mrs. Song in the future to help you ask." ”
Around the corner, Qi stood there with an umbrella and watched Rui Xue and Chen Mao walk by, frowning slightly: "Who is that?" The eldest girl's family is not ashamed, and she talks and laughs with a man. A child without a mother just has no rules. Go and ask who's coming? ”
"It's a Xiao Chen imperial chef in the imperial dining room, probably that one."
Qi Shi sighed, staring silently in the direction where Rui Xue disappeared.
