Chapter 50: The Old Chef

"Although he is old, it doesn't mean that his skills are not good. I have a few dishes here, I wonder if I can ask the chef to try them? ”

The shopkeeper took the paper, looked at it, and said, "This peanut can still do this?" How did the little brother come up with it? ”

"This is not my idea, it is written by clumsily reading a hundred books. I also accompanied her this time, after all, the woman's family came out to talk about business, and it was not good for her reputation to spread it. ”

"I see. How about I take this recipe to the chef first? "It stands to reason that the two sides have not yet negotiated, and this recipe cannot be taken away, so the shopkeeper asked Zhou Kuiruo's opinion.

Zhou Kuiruo has been gone for a long time, and he has been snubbed and insulted in an afternoon, although the possibility of praying for Lou to come back to life is very small, but now he can only try. "Take it from the shopkeeper!"

"Good! Then I'll go in first, and you sit first. With that, he hurried into the backyard.

Looking at Zhou Kuiruo's worried appearance, Chun Tao said his thoughts. "I... I have a... Opinion... Chef also... Not necessarily... Want... I want a man. ”

"You mean to find a woman?"

"Hmmm! They're sure... Not... Not threatened... You can try... Craft... Correct... Then pick people. ”

"Cooks are generally men because women have little strength and are weak. So even if the shopkeeper is willing to recruit women, no one comes. ”

Then there is always a woman who is not weak and has great strength! And not all women are like that. Chun Tao took a sip of water from her cup and stared at the table.

Zhou Kuiruo looked at Chun Tao's disapproving look, and said, "What we are discussing must happen under the premise that the shopkeeper agrees to let the woman be the chef." If the shopkeeper doesn't agree, then all our ideas are in vain. ”

For a moment, both of them fell silent, and in the huge restaurant, only the voices of two children talking.

"Little brother, I asked the chef to make the dish, you can taste it and see how it goes." The shopkeeper walked out of the backyard with a tray, followed by an old man with gray hair, who thought to be the chef.

"Good!" The chef makes three fresh dishes, and the production method is relatively simple, as long as the potatoes and eggplants are fried, and then green peppers are added, and then seasoned.

"How?" The shopkeeper looked at the blackened green peppers on the plate, not hopeful, but still not giving up.

Zhou Kuiruo put down his chopsticks and pushed the dish in front of the shopkeeper. "The shopkeeper might as well try it for himself."

The shopkeeper took a bite, swallowed it, and let out a long sigh. "Hey! How can this be good. ”

When the shopkeeper came to me, I promised that there would be no problem, but since I came, the problem has never stopped, and there have been fewer and fewer customers. When the chef thought of this, he felt very guilty in his heart. "Owner, I'm really sorry, I'm old, and sometimes I can't control the heat well. I have to admit that I am indeed old. ”

"How many years have you been a cater, old man?" The two sighed again and again, but Zhou Kuiruo was inspired by the words of the chef.

"I have been an apprentice in the dining room since I was 10 years old, I was able to take charge of my own work when I was 20, and I have been a cook for 32 years now."

"You've been doing it for so long, haven't you taken in apprentices? Or is your disciple also threatened by the master of the Victory Fast? ”

"My apprentice, heh! has long been a waste person, drunk all day long for a woman, he doesn't know anything, how can anyone threaten him! ”

I didn't expect the old man's apprentice to be like this, and it seems that he has to find another way to find another way. It seems that Zhou Kuiruo took a sip of water to hide his loss.

The shopkeeper was very curious and continued to ask: "Then I don't know how the craftsmanship of the apprentice is?" ”

"Before I met that woman, he was the second-in-command of Yuyang Pavilion! It's a pity! Chun Tao didn't know where Yuyang Pavilion was, but Zhou Kuiruo and the shopkeeper knew very well.

This Yuyang Pavilion is a restaurant in Nanyang City, although it is not famous in Nanyang City, but it can be compared with Yonghe Building in Yuyang County. can be the second-in-command in the back kitchen of Yuyang Pavilion, and the strength is definitely not weak.

"I don't know where the Lingtu is now, but I want to pay a visit." After listening to the old man's words, the shopkeeper was full of joy.

It seems that the shopkeeper has moved the idea of persuasion, but with the current situation, if the old man's apprentice recovers, then the prayer building may really be able to come back to life.

Zhou Kuiruo and Chun Tao glanced at each other, and they both understood the shopkeeper's thoughts. Then nothing happens to them.

"Since the shopkeeper wants to find a new chef, why don't we talk about this cooperation another day?"

I don't have the right people on my hands right now, and I can't make sense of dominating the recipe and not letting them find other partners to work with. "Well, well!" Stretched out his hand and handed the recipe to Zhou Kuiruo.

Zhou Kuiruo took it and said: "If the shopkeeper finds a suitable candidate, you can go to the noodle stall on East Street to find me, I usually sell some calligraphy and paintings." ”

The implication is that before the shopkeeper finds a suitable chef, Zhou Kuiruo will not cooperate with others.

The shopkeeper knew from the old man's mouth that these dishes were not available even in Nanyang City, so he was excited to hear him say this. "Good! Good! Good! I will definitely go. ”

"Then we'll take our leave."

"Okay, go slowly." The shopkeeper stood at the door, watching Zhou Kuiruo and his party leave, and only after their figures disappeared did he let out a long sigh.

"Old Yang Tou, take me to see your apprentice tonight! I must get him back on his feet, and I must not pray that the building will fall. ”

"Good!" Lao Yang is a close friend of the shopkeeper, and of course he doesn't want his hard work to be in vain, not to mention that if this thing is done, his apprentice can also regroup. It's the best of both worlds.

When Chun Tao and his party returned to Erzhu's father's noodle stall, March was already sitting on the donkey cart and waiting, and even the things had already been moved.

"Where have you been? Only back now. March looked at Chun Tao with his arms around his arms, a little displeased.

"I walked away just now because of something, and I'm in trouble with Miss March."

The person who spoke was not Chun Tao, and March was not presumptuous. "It's okay, anyway, these things are moved with the help of the boss who sells noodles, hurry up and get in the car! A little later, it will be dark. ”

The group was delayed in the prayer building for some time, and it was already about five o'clock, and if they didn't go back, they might not be able to see the road when they arrived at Zhaojia Village.

The four of them hurriedly got into the donkey cart, said goodbye to Erzhu's father, and then returned home.

When passing by the entrance of the village, Chun Tao suddenly remembered the two kimchi jars that Uncle Xing made last time, and estimated that they should be ready, so she asked March to stop and knocked on Uncle Xing's door.

"There's... Anyone? Chun Tao's voice was too small, and March sat in the car and couldn't help but shout for her.

"Is there anyone? Someone outside is looking for it, open the door. As soon as the words fell, the door opened, and Uncle Xing's hoarse and old voice also sounded.

"Who! Shouting, do you understand etiquette? Uncle Xing opened his mouth to curse.

March didn't expect Uncle Xing to be such a person, so he wrinkled his nose and didn't dare to speak again.

Chun Tao has long known Uncle Xing's temperament, so she got used to it, and watched Uncle Xing stumble and talk about himself. "Xing... Uncle Xing... I... I'm coming..."

No surprise, Uncle Xing interrupted Chun Tao. "I know what you're doing here, the jar is ready, it's inside, go in and move it yourself, hurry up!"

Uncle Xing turned sideways and let them in. As soon as Zhou Kuiruo and Chun Tao entered the courtyard, they saw two strange jars on the ground, it should be said that Zhou Kuiruo felt strange, and Chun Tao was very surprised.

I didn't expect Uncle Xing's craftsmanship to be so good, and he really made exactly the same. "Same."

Uncle Xing snorted coldly and ignored Chun Tao.
