A woman at the age of twenty-eight is said to be good-sounding, mature, attractive and girlish, to put it bluntly, she is not embarrassed, she is not embarrassed, she is not up or down.

When Ms. Miao said this, Lin Wan was standing intently in front of the toilet mirror and applying makeup. Ms. Miao passed by the toilet, holding a pile of freshly folded clothes in her hands, chattering endlessly, not knowing whether to listen to her or reflect on herself.

"When I was twenty-eight years old, my breasts started to sag, I got my first crow's feet, and my face started to sag. When the neighbors heard others calling me Sister Miao, they couldn't help but roll their eyes. You're twenty-eight years old in the blink of an eye, let's not care about your career first, just talk about your personal problems, when can you bring someone back to me to take a look. “

​​

There was no response in the toilet, it was quiet, only the sound of sporadic bottles and cans.

Miao Wenli pushed open Lin Yun's wardrobe and put the clothes back for her. As soon as my hand reached in, I touched a box, fished it out and opened it to see that it was the facial cleanser that this girl bought from a classmate who was engaged in purchasing a few days ago. Not to mention that when she received the courier, she casually put it on the shoe cabinet, Miao Wenli shook her head helplessly, and helped her take it out and put it on the bedside table.

"It's smoky every day, no matter how good the skin care products are, what's the use of not getting married, no matter how good the maintenance is, when you pass thirty, you will become an elderly mother in a few years, depending on what you take to have a baby." Ms. Miao began to count her face every day.

To say that these facial features are not as delicate as they are, but they are indeed beautiful, the skin is white, such as the best jade, exuding a radiant light, and the facial features are grouped together with an indescribable taste, with a touch of handsomeness in the delicate, and a touch of charm in the heroic spirit.

Miao Wenli has been working part-time as a chef for her, and she has been complaining about her boyfriend for the past few years, and she has tried to introduce her to people everywhere. Lin Wan has been a beauty embryo since she was a child, and the boys who chased her couldn't count them on their fingers, but without exception they were strangled in the cradle by Ms. Miao, she was afraid that her baby daughter's mind would be abducted by a bad boy, not to mention junior high and high school, and even college was not allowed to talk about her.

After graduating from college, Ms. Miao's colleague's daughter and son got married after graduating quickly, and they talked about it slowly, but Lin Wan is good, and even a friend of the opposite sex is rare.

Ms. Miao Wenli was not calm anymore and began to be anxious.

​​

Lin Wan calmly drew her eyebrows in the mirror deafly, and Ms. Miao outside began to mop the floor again.

The words still didn't stop: "Twenty-year-old men like twenty-year-old girls, thirty people also want to find a twenty-something, forty don't say it on the bright side, see twenty girls are not eyes straight, take your senior sister as an example, people are not twenty-two years old just after graduation by her forty-year-old husband to marry home, now it is Mrs. Kuo in front of her, to moisturize and moisturize, this young and beautiful is the capital." ”

​​

Lin Yun couldn't listen to it anymore, and leaned out of the toilet with half of her body, "Don't squeeze my senior sister, she is a beautiful person, and she is an out-and-out talented woman, she deserves to be pursued and loved, and my senior sister is good to me, and this job is still introduced by her." ”

​​

Miao Wenli also knew that what she said just now was inappropriate, so she changed the conversation: "Anyway, that's what it means, think about it yourself, when you went to college, it was as tender as a flower, and a few boys from the outer courtyard chased after her, but now, no one cares, and the plum vegetables are smoked by the kitchen smoke." ”

Lin Wan sneered: "I'm a plum cabbage, so what are you?" Old cabbage? Mom, do you think this is the right thing for you? When the university market is good, you don't let you talk, after you graduate, you go to the house every day to urge me to take one home, you should buy white radish in the vegetable market, which one is a big water spirit, you can take it home if you pay a fee? ”

Ms. Miao didn't bother with her, and smiled.

​​

At this time, Comrade Lin Jianguo came out of the kitchen with breakfast, "Listen to your mother and son chattering early in the morning, what are you doing?" ”

Miao Wenli washed her hands and sat down at the dining table, looking at Lin Jianguo in a not very beautiful mood: "Didn't the son of the old Shen family in your unit return to China?" In the past, our two families were still neighbors, and I asked you to invite him to our house for a meal, did you tell anyone? ”

Lin Jianguo sighed and touched his nose twice, "Said it." ”

"Hmph, Lin Jianguo, you lie and don't make drafts, right?" Miao Wenli made a gesture to beat him, "I didn't say it when I saw you, I see that you don't take our mother and daughter in your eyes now, now that my daughter is older, I'm useless, it's not good to speak, right?" ”

Lin Jianguo was anxious and said, "What words? In front of my daughter, leave me a little dignity. When Lao Shen was our neighbor, he looked down on our family, and his son returned from the sea, and he must have a matchmaker coming to the door, so I was in a hurry to promote my daughter. ”

"When can't I look down on it, why don't I know, besides, Xiao Shen has studied abroad, and the cultural level and quality must not be the same as Lao Shen, I saw that I was very good to us when I was a child, so I decided to ask him to come to the house for dinner on the weekend."

​​

Lin Jianguo took off his apron, shook his head slightly, and then looked at Lin Yun, who had sat down to eat breakfast with exquisite makeup, Lin Jianguo looked away rather depressedly and stared elsewhere in a daze.

Lin Wan chuckled, she knew what Comrade Lin Jianguo was thinking, didn't she just think that she had achieved nothing. When the college entrance examination was filled in, it was Lin Jianguo and Miao Wenli who did it for her, saying that girls learn English well, and they will graduate in the future to be a translator or enter a foreign company or something, which is idle and decent.

Now it's a foreign company, but Lin Wan doesn't like it, she has found herself interested in cooking since junior high school and wants to be a chef, but Miao Wenli exploded when she heard it, and her daughter, who grew up like a pearl, wants to go to the big spoon?

It's even harder than cutting her flesh.

So much so that after four years of college, Lin Wan couldn't lift the spirit to study, but when he didn't have classes, he went to the hotel kitchen to work part-time, which was naturally hidden from his family at first.

Let's take the current job as an example, the front desk of a foreign-funded company, every day is Good morning/afternoon/good afternoon, Hi! Can I help you? Did you make an appointment with him/her?

Twenty-eight years old is indeed a hurdle, the front desk work is to eat youth, in the early years of foreign language is still a skill, but there are many talents in big cities, the competition is big, and it is no longer enough to know a foreign language alone, plus Lin Yun is not interested in this job, and in the same year, the company has been transferred to HR and special assistance through job rotation or something, but Lin Yun has been in the front desk for six years.

If nothing else, just want this position to be able to leave work on time.

After getting off work, Lin Yun didn't delay for a second, and went straight to her part-time kitchen, and as soon as she took off her hip-wrapping professional suit, she changed into a white chef uniform, and wore a high hat, becoming a chef in seconds.

Blame Lao Lin or Blame Ms. Miao?

Still blame yourself.

Unwilling to be ordinary, dissatisfied with the status quo, but on the surface he didn't want to disobey his parents and make them worry about it, Lin Yun was working as the front desk of a foreign company, and at the same time went to the "big spoon" in the mouth of Ms. Miao Wenli after work.

It was her last compromise with her parents.

In fact, she has a boyfriend, his name is Xie Fengyi, he is a gourmet, he is a Weibo big V, and there are more than 500,000 fans, but strictly speaking, a gourmet is not a profession, just like there is no profession of sommelier, Lin Yun has not told her family for fear of trouble, with her understanding of Ms. Miao Wenli, it is estimated that in the end, people will only disdain a sentence "Isn't this just a proper foodie!" ”

In the past few years after graduation, many people don't understand, thinking that Lin Wan is afraid of marriage, afraid of men, and has low eyes, etc., but in fact, she really doesn't have so many problems. She still wants to get married, but she really doesn't want to force herself to live with someone she doesn't like. That's all.

If you have to get married, Xie Fengyi is a good candidate, but it is limited to getting along with each other, Xie Fengyi is a fellow practitioner, and the two have a lot of common language for food, but if you want to ask Lin Yun, how much she loves Xie Fengyi, she can't tell.

At the breakfast table, Ms. Miao Wenli continued: "Wanyun, in the past few years, your father and I have turned a blind eye to you going to the big spoon, it's enough to have fun, you are not small, it's almost time to take care of a serious boyfriend while you are young, have you ever heard of a man with good conditions asking for a woman with a big spoon?!" I also heard that your college roommate, the one younger than you, has found a boyfriend, and she is still an IT person, and her family conditions are not good when she was in school, and she is not as beautiful as you. ”

Lin Wan didn't want to listen anymore, "Mom, Dad, I'm almost too late, I'm going to be late, you eat slowly, I'll go first." ”

Before the words fell, he added: "Thirty years old, thirty years old at the latest, I promise to bring you a son-in-law." ”

Mo Da kissed Ms. Miao Wenli's cheeks.

Then, he quickly picked up a hard-boiled egg peeled by Ms. Miao and slammed it on the door with a "bang".

Frightened, Comrade Lao Lin's heart trembled, "Oh, who is this girl with, don't talk nonsense, she is stubborn, and she doesn't eat oil and salt!" ”

Miao Wenli originally lowered her head to peel eggs, but when she heard Lin Jianguo complaining here, her temper also came up, "Lin Jianguo, what do you mean, do you blame me for not teaching my daughter well?" ”

"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing, okay?" Lin Jianguo knew Miao Wenli's temper, damn it, he could say a hundred words about his daughter, but not a single word from others, it was useless to say more, and his tone softened.

……

Baoshan Road, Shanghai, a private restaurant called "Yiwu".

In the back kitchen, an old man in his sixties and tenies, with gray hair and a wrinkled face with a gentle and serious expression, wearing a white chef's suit, sat in the corner drinking tea, and his eyes fell on a slender woman who was also wearing a chef's suit.

The oil pan exploded gently, and the foam floating on the oil surface gradually moved towards the edge of the pan and finally disappeared. The female chef takes the chopped duck from the pot, cuts it with long chopsticks, and then pours in the water chestnut. The oil pot exploded even more, the duck and water chestnut in the pot were beating slightly, and fine oil flowers rolled up around them, and a stream of white gas with a strong fragrance came out. After two minutes, use a scoop to fish out the tender duck and diamond meat, leave a small amount of boiling oil in the pot, put in the dried chili pepper and green onion ginger shreds and stir-fry until fragrant, then pour the duck and water chestnut in, follow the pre-adjusted seasoning under the pot, after the juice is thick, sprinkle a few green and red peppers on the pot, and pour sesame oil...... Throughout the cooking process, the female chef is in control and engrossed.

A sesame oil duck with full color and flavor is completed, which makes the bottom of the tongue relish.

"Serve." Lin Wan shouted at the food server.

The old master also stood up from his seat at this time, looking at her looking weak and slender, and her tone became more and more gentle: "Lin Yun, I'm tired, it's not too early, it's time to go home, so that your parents don't have to worry." ”

Lin Yun took off the chef's hat and mask, and smiled at Xiao Baoqing, "Master, I'm not tired, you can take me as an apprentice to teach me my skills, and let me come to your baby's kitchen to toss around, I'm too late to be happy." ”

Xiao Baoqing's ancestor is the imperial chef in the palace, the craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has been improved with the times, Lin Yun also met him by chance in the spice market, and later after her perseverance, coupled with her sincerity and talent, Xiao Baoqing agreed to accept her as an apprentice.

"Lin Yun, you are not a blind toss, I have learned this craft ten out of ten by you, they all say that the back wave pushes the front wave, and the front wave dies on the beach, that's it, I'm old, even if I kick my legs and lose my legs, with you as a successor, I have no regrets."

Lin Wan didn't speak, only buried his head in holding Xiao Baoqing's arm affectionately, the old man's heart was warm, his eyes were loving, he had no children and no daughters in his life, and he was very satisfied with Lin Yun's intimate apprentice when he was old.

"You, it's not good to learn anything at a young age, you have to be a cook, it's all men's work, you look at your palms, you have calluses. If you are willing to spend this energy elsewhere, you will definitely be able to achieve something, so why bother to ask for hardship. Xiao Baoqing chattered.

Lin Yun's eyebrows were smiling: "Master, there is a saying that I am happy to buy a thousand gold, I like to do this, aren't you too?" ”

Xiao Baoqing glanced at Lin Wan and didn't say anything more, only patted the back of her hand lovingly.

It would be nice if Comrade Lin Jianguo and Ms. Miao Wenli could be like the master, otherwise she wouldn't have to stand at the front desk for a day, and she would have to come here to cook after work.

It's worth the hard work, who calls the dish her favorite.

……

What ifs, no ifs......

That night, Lin Wan changed into a chef's uniform, and was about to leave after cleaning the kitchen with Xiao Baoqing, but at the door of the private restaurant, she remembered that the mobile phone was pulled in the back kitchen, so she asked Xiao Baoqing to wait at the door, and she went in to get it.

It never came out again.

Xiao Baoqing heard a click, followed by an earth-shattering explosion, and it passed in an instant.

When he turned back again, he saw that the fire was raging, and when he came across something that could be burned, he lit a new handful, and the new smoke covered the old fire, and for a moment it became dark, and the new fire rushed out of the black smoke, and joined the old fire, and everywhere there were tongues of fire, pillars of fire, flying, spitting, swaying, and madness......

Xiao Baoqing exclaimed bitterly: "Lin Yun! ”
