Su Qingfeng looked at the New Year with some amusement.

He hadn't said anything yet, and even he wasn't sure, but as a result, this guy was already happy, as if he had recognized the quota of this closed disciple as something to explore.

Su Qingfeng didn't know where he got so much confidence.

Sometimes, the apprentice is really not the best craft, so he can be selected.

It's like Su Qingfeng accepting the New Year as an apprentice.

In the back kitchen of Taihe Hotel, he is neither the most talented one nor the most aura one.

Even when it comes to background, He Nian is not the one with the best background, but Su Qingfeng chose him as his apprentice.

Although there are reasons to please him during the New Year, there are also factors that are in line with the eye.

But if you really want to talk about it, Su Qingfeng has an unparalleled advantage over other chefs, that is, his age.

At the age of early twenties, his peers are still helping other masters, and he has climbed from a rural boy to the top of a county hotel.

In this process, although there is borrowing and fueling the troubles, if you want to say that Su Qingfeng does not have the slightest bit of real skills, even a fool will not believe it.

Yu Xianghua, the county magistrate, openly and secretly gave Su Qingfeng momentum and praised the braised pork he made.

And the facts prove it.

The braised pork made by Su Qingfeng lived up to Xiang Hua's expectations.

Whether it is entertaining foreign guests or entertaining provincial leaders, basically those who have eaten it will be full of praise for the braised pork made by Su Qingfeng.

Su Qingfeng was slightly certain in his heart, thinking of the previous system changes, I don't know if he predicted the next changes, which of course also includes this master who retired from Fengzeyuan.

He looked at the New Year and smiled and invited, "It's so late, sit down for a meal and then leave." ”

Who knew that when He Nian heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, not at all with his usual cheeky appearance.

He squeezed his eyebrows at Su Qingfeng, and said in a brisk tone, "Master, don't you know, during the Chinese New Year, I made a few dishes for my family, and they were stunned after eating, I didn't expect that I would still have this craft in my lifetime, after hearing that you taught me, before going out, they pulled my ears and asked me not to rub your family's food." ”

"My parents said that you should teach me the craft of eating from your heart and lungs. If I don't have the shame to eat with you again, even if you don't say it, my dad will chase me for three miles with a stick. ”

Li Ran listened to it a little funny next to her, she could see that Su Qingfeng was quite interested in this disciple, and even sometimes, there was a feeling of looking at a stupid younger brother, even if Su Qingfeng was not very old.

Seeing that the two were still refusing, Li Ran walked into the back room with a smile, quietly, without alarming anyone, and when he came out again, he was carrying a hanging of pork belly in his hand.

The eyes of the New Year were immediately attracted by the hanging pork belly.

This hanging pork belly must weigh at least five or six pounds, and the most important thing is that this pork belly is fat and thin, intertwined layer by layer, of which there are at least seven or eight interlayers, which can be said to be the best of the best.

These days, who doesn't lack meat to eat.

Not to mention such a high-quality pork belly.

Just take these fatty meats and take them to the cauldron to stir-fry the fatty meat, you can also stir out a lot of lard, and then you can eat half a sugar and dip it in lard residue to eat, even if you let him eat a sea bowl, you won't get tired of the New Year!

There were such thoughts in his heart, but He Nian remembered his mother's words before going out.

No way.

If you don't listen to your father, you will get a bamboo whip fried meat at most, but if you don't listen to your mother, you will not only get a broom from the sky, but also get your father's bamboo whip fried meat.

That is...... Equivalent to mixed doubles.

How old he is, it would be a little humiliating to be beaten again.

Li Ran handed out the pork belly, and He Nian swallowed his saliva, forcing himself to peel off the gaze that was glued to the pork belly and look in other directions.

"Take it. Don't fool me, I want to vomit when I eat meat during the New Year, and I get tired of seeing pork belly, and I don't want to take it back. ”

Su Qingfeng was still in the mood to tease.

He Nian made an embarrassed face, "Master, what you said." Who can eat meat and vomit? If there is a day when everyone is not short of meat to eat, even if I eat meat every day, I will not get tired of it. ”

Su Qingfeng smiled, but muttered in his heart, this is not necessarily.

But even so, He Nian still refused again and again, "Forget it, if I really take this hanging pork belly." When I go back, I don't know how my mother will scold me! ”

At this qualifying time, Li Ran spoke, "Aunt only said that she wouldn't let you take what Su Qingfeng gave you, but my things are not Su Qingfeng's, so you can take them." Uncles and aunts can't say anything about you. ”

Hey?

Can it still be counted like this?

Hearing this, it was as if the door to a new world had been opened.

After careful calculation in his heart, he finally couldn't resist the desire for this piece of pork belly, nodded at Li Ran with a smile, picked up the pork belly and ran away, and said thank you a little embarrassed when he left.

Looking at his departing back, he couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

She looked at Su Qingfeng and teased, "How do I think, sometimes you treat him like a son." ”

Su Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and turned his head as well, "You're not bad either." I didn't expect to say that just now, when did my daughter-in-law become so smart? ”

It was obviously Su Qingfeng's sincere compliment, but Li Huan's interpretation angle was inexplicably a little weird.

She snorted, her eyes were like hooks, and she poked at Su Qingfeng, "You mean, I wasn't smart before?" ”

Woman, your name is fickle!

Su Qingfeng's face changed slightly, and he complained frantically in his heart, but soon, he showed a bright smile, "How is it possible, if my daughter-in-law is stupid, how can I like it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Su Qingfeng always felt that something was strange.

Really......

The next second.

Li Ran pretended to have willow eyebrows upside down, revealing a brutal appearance that Su Qingfeng had never seen before, and put his hands on his slightly plump waist recently:

"Okay, Su Qingfeng, if you say this, if I'm a fool, don't you like me?"

Su Qingfeng glanced outside, grabbed his daughter-in-law's waist, hugged him horizontally, and carried him to the house.

"How can there be so many ifs? You still have time to think about it, and when you have a baby, you can wait. ”

Wait, right?

What are you waiting for?

When Li Ran heard this, his ears were slightly red, and he glanced at Su Qingfeng with some shame.

This is not serious!

……

When Su Qingfeng went to work on the seventh day of the first month, after the nourishment of annual leave, it can be said that his face was full of red light.

He got up early in the morning, first ran to the post office, and sent things to his grandfather and grandmother in Jiaodong.

He probably calculated, it had been a while since the last time he sent things, and he was afraid that they would be reluctant to eat those things, so Su Qingfeng simply sent some more.

When he came out of the post office, he blew a cold wind and came to the Taihe Hotel.

The cold wind blew all the way, although it blew him straight and instigated, but it also woke up his somewhat chaotic head.

As soon as I entered the back kitchen, the lively atmosphere suddenly got up.

"Master Su!"

"Master!"

"Master!"

"Breeze!"

Miscellaneous shouts, for a while, almost drowned out the sound of pots and pans colliding in the back kitchen.

Manager Hao stood at the door of the back kitchen, and when he saw the people inside, he couldn't help but pout.

These people, when they see themselves, are not so enthusiastic.

It's just that Manager Hao can also understand.

For the people in the back kitchen, he is the little leader who restricts them.

But Su Qingfeng is different.

Su Qingfeng, as the leader in the back kitchen, can teach the elm pimple for the New Year, let alone teach them.

If they can learn a little bit from Su Qingfeng, they will also be able to have a signature dish in the future.

And masters like Lu Datou, don't look at the good relationship with Su Qingfeng, but that is based on the fact that Su Qingfeng is the leader of the back kitchen, with the same status as them, and even faintly higher than them, so they can get along with each other peacefully.

But if Lu Datou taught the cooking skills to the people in the back kitchen so easily, it would be a fantasy.

In these years, a master like Su Qingfeng is simply unique.

In the eyes of the apprentices in the back kitchen, it was like shit luck, and for a long time, their attitude towards the New Year was envy, jealousy and hatred.

Why can this kid do anything!

The thought in Manager Hao's mind flashed, and seeing Su Qingfeng washing his hands, he cleared his throat and shouted, "Master Su, you come out for a while." ”

Su Qingfeng's eyes flashed slightly, and after wiping his hands clean, he walked out.

However, Lu Datou's eyes in the back kitchen were a little complicated, but in the end he only sighed lightly.

He is also older, and when he was young, maybe he still had a little talent for cooking, to be precise, it should be Reiki.

But after working hard in the state-run hotel for so many years, and staying at home for so many years, although the kung fu is still there, compared to a young man like Su Qingfeng, he lacks a little aura.

This time, the old master of Fengzeyuan wanted to accept apprentices, and Lu Datou also knew about it, and if he was not impressed, it must be fake.

But that old master is not an ordinary person.

That's the master of Fengze Garden.

People stay there, I don't know how many big leaders in Beijing have been seen, if they can take this road, it can be said that they will be on the road to the top.

It's just that the more powerful the master, the greater the competition, and there is only one place to accept apprentices.

If he was ten years younger, Lu Datou might still fight, but now, he is also older, his children are older, and the spirit of the young club is gone.

Now that I am honestly staying here in Taihe Hotel, An Ansheng is living a life, so forget it.

Lu Datou had a bunch of thoughts churning in his heart.

Xue Heping next to him seemed relaxed and calm, not so entangled.

His cooking skills can't even compare to Lu Datou, and he is a little older than Lu Datou, so what are you fighting for with this condition?

Living a peaceful and stable life is the greatest pursuit in Xue Heping's heart.

……

"That's the way this is, if you stay here, our Taihe Hotel has a place for you, and there is no problem in living a peaceful and stable life. But Su Qingfeng, I also know that you are young, young, and you will climb up if you have the ability, but no matter what, just give it a try, no matter whether you succeed or fail, there will be nothing to lose. ”

In fact, when he said this, Manager Hao really didn't think that it was very likely that Su Qingfeng could be accepted as a master's apprentice.

Su Qingfeng is too young.

Competing with him, there is also a group of masters around thirty years old, although they are not the youngest, but they are at the peak of their lives, and they are just suitable for further development.

Although Su Qingfeng's dishes are good, what he lacks most is time.

Chefs, in fact, are craftsmen, and craftsmen are the most lacking in time.

The master of Fengze Garden is also old.

When he was in the prime of life, his vision was above the top, and he refused to accept disciples, saying that those who came to apprentice were all stupid beetles.

Not to mention, the master is also a cultural person, and his speech is all crepe, and even the word stupid beetle is used.

But it is precisely like this, as soon as he released these words, he offended many people, and now that he is older, he is not happy to stay in Beijing, so he simply returned to his hometown of Hei Province, thinking that he is also old, and he is quietly thinking about it, and is ready to accept a closed disciple.

To put it mildly, the master is old and has a few years to live, if he finds a young apprentice and breaks up the craft of cooking, I am afraid that he will not be able to wait for the apprentice to come out, and he will burp himself.

Otherwise, with Su Qingfeng's talent, if luck comes, he may be able to succeed in apprenticeship.

Manager Hao kept muttering in his heart, but Su Qingfeng's face was very calm.

In the matter of apprenticeship, he should naturally do his best.

But at the same time, we should treat it with a normal heart, not arrogant in victory, and not discouraged in defeat.

When Manager Hao saw him like this, he thought that Su Qingfeng was young and vigorous, and he didn't know the powerful relationship, so he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder:

"Alas...... You're still young. Qingfeng, I'm afraid you haven't heard of the chef of the state banquet, right? ”

When Su Qingfeng heard this, he originally wanted to leave, turned his head, and looked at Manager Hao with humble eyes.

State Banquet Chef?

He's familiar with this.

But when Manager Hao saw Su Qingfeng like this, he thought that he hadn't heard of this thing, and said mysteriously, "The chef of the state banquet can be said to be the top figure in our industry." Almost every one of them is a proficient or even a leader in major cuisines. ”

"But the breeze, you know no. If you want to become a chef at a state banquet, you have to be recommended by someone. It's not just that you're a good cook, then it's done. Where is this ladder to heaven? The master of Fengzeyuan is counted as one, and the connections he knows are also counted as one. ”

When Su Qingfeng heard this, he was thoughtful. (End of chapter)
