47. Show your cooking skills
When Director Yang saw Li Weiguo's eyes, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Weiguo, do a good job, when you become a pillar of the country, maybe you will be equipped with a car, and then you can drive a car to travel, and your neighbors and friends will definitely envy you!" ”
This is true,
In this era, cars are not as popular as in later generations, they are rare at this time, and they are also a symbol of status, and ordinary people can't drive them at all.
If he can drive a car to and from work, all the birds in the courtyard can vomit blood, and the roots of his teeth will be crushed with hatred.
……
When he came to the destination, Li Weiguo found that this was a family home, and there were guards standing guard at the door with guns.
"Don't be nervous, that big leader is very talkative." Director Yang was afraid that Li Weiguo would be nervous, so he gently dragged him in.
As soon as I entered the house, a person came to me,
His hair was half white, his body was thin and tall, he walked up to Director Yang with a big smile, and after a few words of greeting, he looked at Li Weiguo on the side:
"This is Comrade Li Weiguo, right?"
Li Weiguo nodded and briefly introduced himself.
The big leader was very happy when he heard this, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and exclaimed: "I have heard about you, in just a few days, you have been promoted several levels, breaking the record of your rolling mill and becoming the youngest fifth-level fitter!" Terrible! Be sure to have a few drinks today and give you a good celebration hahaha......"
The enthusiasm of the big leader made Li Weiguo a little uncomfortable, but he soon adjusted his mentality, talked and laughed with him, and chatted freely for more than an hour.
"Ajie, you go to the kitchen to see if the dish is ready, let's talk while eating."
Ah Jie is the wife of the big leader and the mistress of the house, and she answered and went to the kitchen.
"Hey, why haven't you cooked yet?"
"Isn't that what you're doing? What's the hurry? The man raised his eyelids and glanced at her, still unhurried.
The invited cook was none other than Silly Zhu, who sat on a chair and drank tea leisurely, with only a little fat man by his side, busy preparing all kinds of side dishes.
The hostess frowned and said, "I told you when you came, hurry up and make the dishes, it's not early, don't you hurry up?" ”
"Why don't you ask someone else to do it?" Silly Zhu is also impatient.
"Hey, how do you talk? Our family invited you to come, just this attitude? The hostess reprimanded: "If you don't want to do it, hurry up, without you, can our family still be hungry?" ”
"Okay, okay, okay, you're amazing, I'll do it now, okay?"
Silly Zhu couldn't sit still, he didn't plan to leave. The status of the owner of this house is not low, if the dishes he makes suit his taste, he will definitely be able to come often in the future.
As for the attitude just now...... He has always been like this, except for being obedient to Li Weiguozhi and not daring to be presumptuous in front of him, he is basically the same to anyone, not to mention that he doesn't know that the person just now is the hostess here, otherwise he would have worked diligently a long time ago.
The hostess returned to the living room with a slightly dissatisfied face.
While she was talking, she complained to everyone about what she had just seen in the kitchen.
The big leader frowned after hearing this, and Deputy Factory Director Li pinched a handful of sweat, and scolded the stupid pillar in his heart, damn it, when you make a mess, you don't pick a mess, is this a place where you can make a mess? ! If it weren't for the fact that the big leader likes to eat Sichuan food, and you happen to do the best, I brought you here because I was blind!
Deputy Director Li hurriedly apologized, excused himself, and explained to the stupid pillar: "This kid's temper is like this, I said how many times he didn't change, if it weren't for the first-class cooking skills, I wouldn't recommend him to come, chief, you can taste it in a while, although the temper stinks, but the craftsmanship is guaranteed to satisfy you." ”
Li Weiguo added to the fire: "Director Li, this stupid pillar didn't perform well when he was in the factory, and he was not clear with a widow, why did you bring him too?" ”
Deputy Director Li sighed: "It's not that there is a shortage of chefs in the factory who can cook Sichuan cuisine, as long as he can cook a few dishes, I can only beg him to come." ”
Li Weiguo said regretfully: "If you had said earlier, let me make dinner tonight!" ”
"You can also cook Sichuan food?" The great leader came to the spirit.
"A little research, only a few specialty dishes."
"And how about you show your hand today?"
Li Weiguo "hesitated" and said: "This ...... Today is the head chef of Silly Zhu, all of whom are in a courtyard, and I am afraid that I will steal his limelight and be remembered by him again. ”
"How dare he?! A chef doesn't have much ability, but his temper is not small! The big leader glared and said: "You can do it with confidence, that stupid kid dares to trouble you, just tell me, I'll clean him up!" ”
Li Weiguo nodded: "Okay, I'll be ugly today, if you don't do well, you can bear more." ”
At this time, the back kitchen,
Silly Zhu is stir-frying, smoky, and his hands and feet are only sharp when cooking, and he doesn't drag at all.
Li Weiguo didn't say hello to him, came to the board, and looked for the main ingredients of the dish to be made.
"Li Weiguo? Why are you here? As soon as Silly Zhu turned his head, he saw Li Weiguo, who was busy with his work.
"The leader said that he wanted to try my craft, so I could only make a few dishes for him to taste."
"Your craft?" Silly Zhu was amused by him, you Li Weiguo's first-class cook, "No, Li Weiguo, the big leader likes to eat Sichuan food, do you know how to cook it?" ”
"So-so."
It's just the level of a sixth-level cook, which is just a little higher than you.
Silly Zhu stir-fried the vegetables in the pot a few times, and when the heat was almost up, he handed it to Ma Huasheng on the plate, he wiped his hands on his apron, came to Li Weiguo's side and stretched out his head to look inside.
"Hey, isn't it good? It's kind of interesting. Silly Zhu saw that Li Weiguo was holding the knife steadily, and he couldn't help but be interested.
Li Weiguo ignored it, but continued his work, and what he was going to do now was a classic Sichuan dish: Kung Pao Chicken.
The chicken thigh meat was cut into small pieces, the sauce was mixed and left on the plate to marinate for a while, and he filled a small half bowl of peanuts, simply oiled them, and put them out to cool......
Silly Zhu was stunned, Ma Hua's eyes widened, and he wanted to remember every step in his mind.
"Next, heat the pot, pour the oil, put the marinated chicken in the pot, beat it, and wait until the chicken turns white before serving...... Then put in Sichuan pepper and dried chili pepper and stir-fry over low heat to bring out the fragrance, then pour the chili noodles into the pot and fry the red oil, put the ginger slices and minced garlic into it, and fry the fragrance......"
Li Weiguo seemed to be talking to himself, telling every detail and skill of making this dish.
After listening to Li Weiguo's explanation, Ma Hua suddenly realized, and some things he didn't understand were cleared at once, he looked at each other, his eyes were full of gratitude.
