Outside, the sky darkens even further, the sunset is about to fade, and the early lights of the old street reflect the bustling crowd.

Although it was not yet seven o'clock in the evening, the 20 tables in Su Kee's restaurant were already full.

Feng Ruoruo stood beside her grandfather, watching that the restaurant tables were already filled, and the little girl was really happy. leaned into Grandpa's ear and said, "Grandpa, look, today's business is very good." ”

Su Jinrong smiled and reached out to touch his granddaughter: "It's all, if you are a father, the credit." ”

Feng Ruoruo smiled and said: "There is also Ruoruo's credit, as well as my mother, and my grandparents, and my grandfather also has credit." ”

Listening to the little girl count the whole family, there was simply no one left behind, and the smile on Su Jinrong's face was even better.

"Also, Uncle Kobayashi. ”

Grandpa's addition, when the little girl immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, Uncle Xiaolin is also very good, he has done a lot for Dad in the back, Uncle Kobayashi helps Daddy, very well-behaved." ”

Su Jinrong nodded, he had already recognized Lin Ruifeng.

In terms of talent, Lin Ruifeng may not be as good as Feng Yifan. But his temperament is more stable than Feng Yifan's before, and he is a child who is willing to endure hardships.

Su Jinrong has seen too many young people with dreams of learning to cook. Many of them are very talented, but many of them eventually fall to the level of hardship.

The work in the kitchen is not as comfortable as taking a video with a small card stove in the eyes of many people.

The work in the real kitchen is tedious and boring, and it is very, very hard.

Many young chefs enter the kitchen with enthusiasm, dreaming of becoming a top chef, dreaming of being able to gallop in the kitchen with knives and frying spoons in hand.

But if you do enter the kitchen, it may not take a few days to be knocked down by the boring and hard work.

After Feng Yifan, Su Jinrong also accepted several young apprentices.

But none of the young people behind can have the hard work of Feng Yifan at the beginning, let alone Feng Yifan's endurance and the spirit of hard study.

So one after another, Su Jinrong drove away some of the later apprentices.

Because looking at those unmotivated young people, Su Jinrong would inevitably think of his son-in-law, so in the end, he simply drove them away.

For such a long time, Lin Ruifeng's appearance can be regarded as allowing Su Jinrong to vaguely see the original Feng Yifan.

The young man who came out of the countryside alone, who can calm down, can endure the loneliness, and the most important thing is that he can eat the hardships of the kitchen.

Su Jinrong also had several apprentices before Feng Yifan, but in the end he chose Feng Yifan precisely because of his hard work at the beginning. Of course, the key is also because at that time, only Feng Yifan won the award of the domestic cooking competition at that time.

Recalling those pasts, Su Jinrong now feels that he was not wrong to look at people at the beginning.

Table after table of dishes was served, and one after another exclamations erupted in the restaurant.

Especially those young, first-time diners, when they see the plates of dishes, they really can't help but exclaim, even scream.

Subsequently, there were all kinds of "click" photo sounds in the restaurant, and it was destined that the circle of friends would be blown up by Su Ji again this night.

didn't wait long, Liu Wanhua and Shen Qingluo's dishes also came up.

First of all, there are two lighter dishes, stir-fried shrimp and lotus root ribbon.

The fried shrimp came up, and the crystal clear shrimp really made Shen Qingluo's eyes straight. The plate of stir-fried shrimp in front of him is exactly the same as the photos of those dishes that Shen Qingluo saw on the Internet.

The shrimp are crystal clear, and the plating is also very particular, with safflower and green leaves on the side.

It really makes such an elegant dish look so fresh.

Liu Wanhua was stunned when she saw Shen Qingluo, and woke her up with a smile: "Don't be stunned, this dish should be eaten while it is hot, and it is most appropriate for this dish to be served first." ”

Shen Qingluo came back to his senses and asked a little puzzled: "Why is this dish the most suitable first?"

Liu Wanhua replied with a smile: "Because of this dish, it can't be eaten with other dishes, and it doesn't go with rice, it is a fresh and elegant dish to be tasted alone." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Wanhua picked up the white porcelain spoon in Shen Qingluo's bowl and scooped a spoonful of shrimp into her spoon with a male spoon. Then he picked up the balsamic vinegar on the table and poured some balsamic vinegar into the shrimp.

Liu Wanhua handed the spoon back to Shen Qingluo: "Na, only by eating it like this can you taste the taste." ”

Shen Qingluo did not refuse, took the small spoon and looked at it, then opened his mouth and ate the shrimp in the spoon in one bite.

In the mouth, there is a strong vinegar smell at first, but then the shrimp aroma comes out.

When Shen Qingluo bit the shrimp with his teeth, the crispness of the shrimp seemed to burst in his mouth, and the taste of fresh shrimp mixed with the original strong vinegar flavor.

It's simple to say it's complicated, but it's complicated to say it's simple.

Shen Qingluo: This is really the first time to eat this dish.

Although before she returned to China, she had done research on domestic dishes, and specifically based on her grandmother's original description, she consulted a lot of grandmother's memories of some of Su Ji's dishes.

Among them, this stir-fried shrimp, my grandmother recalled and said: "The shrimp are crisp and elastic, and they are slightly sweet when chewed on the teeth, mixed with vinegar, which is really a wonderful taste." ”

Shen Qingluo finally tasted what her grandmother said.

Liu Wanhua smiled and watched Shen Qingluo's taste end.

"How's that? Do you think that only by eating such a dish alone can you eat the beauty of it, and can you feel the wonder of this dish?"

Shen Qingluo nodded: "Yes, Grandma Wanhua, this dish is really delicious." ”

Liu Wanhua said: "Well, if you like it, eat more, eat this dish first, and then we will eat something else." ”

A plate of fried shrimp, under the large pieces of Liu Wanhua and Shen Qingluo, naturally ate almost quickly.

Liu Wanhua asked Shen Qingluo to taste the lotus root belt again.

This dish is similar to stir-fry in a lotus pond, but Feng Yifan replaced the lotus root slices with lotus roots, and before frying, he slightly fried the lotus roots to lock in the moisture in the lotus roots.

Many people may find that a lot of water is stir-fried in the lotus pond or some vegetables.

This is because there is no need to use hot oil to lock in the moisture.

The lotus pond lotus root belt presented by Feng Yifan in front of him can hardly see the excess juice, but if you pick up a piece of lotus root and eat it, you can eat the water contained in the lotus root.

After chewing the "crunchy" lotus root, the crisp and delicious feeling made Shen Qingluo eat very sweet.

Liu Wanhua looked at Shen Qingluo's way of eating, and couldn't help but say: "You are really similar to your grandma, your grandma likes to eat lotus root ribbon very much, and it seems that you like it too." ”

Shen Qingluo smiled and said: "Yes, grandma used to say when I was a child, I was very similar to hers, so she taught me embroidery." ”

Liu Wanhua recalled again: "I was really happy at that time, everyone was carefree every day. ”

Thinking of the end, Liu Wanhua sighed again: "I just didn't expect that Senior Sister would choose to go abroad later, and she never came back as soon as she left." ”

Shen Qingluo's expression was also a little sad, and then said: "Grandma Wanhua, I heard grandma say that my grandmother chose to go abroad because she was excluded by others in the factory?"

Liu Wanhua was stunned for a moment, then continued to sigh and said, "Senior sister, I was indeed forced to go abroad because of some things. ”

Recalling that period of time, Liu Wanhua can only sigh now, it is really a bit tricky.

The reason why Liu Qingru went abroad was because her father was abroad and wanted her to inherit the inheritance.

Originally, Liu Qingru didn't want to go, feeling that her father left her and her mother to go abroad many years ago, and she still had some hatred for her father in her heart.

It's just that I don't know who stabbed it out, and I also disliked a period of "bloody rain" in that era.

The last straw that crushed Liu Qingru was that her husband couldn't bear the pressure and chose to divorce.

Under such a blow, Liu Qingru had no choice but to take her daughter abroad. Because for her, who didn't even have a job at that time, it seemed that there was only one way left to take her daughter abroad.

Liu Wanhua still vaguely remembers that she will never forget the late night at that time. The senior sister found her and handed her the embroidery needlework record handed down by the deceased master at that time.

After that night, Liu Wanhua never saw the senior sister again, and she also lost all the news of "Sister Xiaoluo".

When Liu Wanhua said this, she said sadly: "I once asked someone to inquire, and I got two kinds of news at that time, one is that your grandmother took your grandmother to go abroad quietly, and the other is that they have ......."

Without saying the rest of the words, Liu Wanhua looked at Shen Qingluo and said, "But I have always believed that they went abroad." ”

Shen Qingluo actually didn't hear grandma talk about this, maybe grandma was still young at that time, and many details were not clear.

Or perhaps, grandma felt that this paragraph was painful in her heart, so she was reluctant to mention it to her family.

Now listening to Liu Wanhua's account, Shen Qingluo seems to understand why after her grandmother went abroad, she obviously missed her country very much, and she obviously missed Su Ji, especially her Wanhua sister, but she never wanted to come back.

Because there were some sad experiences for her, grandma couldn't forget them, so she didn't want to come back to face them. Not even a letter was written to Liu Wanhua.

When the two of them were a little sad, Feng Yifan came out again and brought the squirrel mandarin fish to the table.

"Aunt Liu, Ruoruo's Sister Shen, this squirrel mandarin fish is specially made for you today, I hope you can like it, thank you for making clothes for Ruoruo, and also celebrate the reunion of the two after many years, three generations apart. ”

Feng Yifan's words broke the sad atmosphere and brought Liu Wanhua and Shen Qingluo back to their senses.

At this time, look at the squirrel mandarin fish on the table, the whole body is orange-red, and the head and tail are upturned like a squirrel lying on the plate.

Moreover, the temperature of the fried fish has not completely cooled, and the sauce poured on it is constantly eroding, making a "squeaking" sound, like the cry of a small squirrel.

Shen Qingluo was stunned for a while, and then came back to his senses and exclaimed: "It's really beautiful." ”

After observing it, Liu Wanhua suddenly raised a chopstick, gently leaned under the fish, and carefully took out a few pieces of pot from below.

Seeing the pot, Shen Qingluo was a little puzzled: "This, does the squirrel mandarin fish have to put the pot underneath? Is this Su Ji's practice?"

But at this time, Liu Wanhua's eyes were already moist, and at the same time, she turned her head to look at Su Jinrong, who was in a wheelchair.

The squirrel mandarin fish is padded with a pot underneath, which is actually not a Su Ji practice.

This is actually the time that Shen Qingluo's grandmother and Liu Wanhua came to eat squirrel mandarin fish again, and after eating, they saw a lot of sweet and sour soup left on the plate.

Grandma Shen Qingluo was a little girl at the time, so she couldn't help but say: "It's a pity to throw away these soups, if you can eat them in a pot, it will definitely be delicious." ”

Liu Wanhua heard her sister say that she found Su Jinrong, who was younger at the time, but had already started to help in the back kitchen, and found a piece of pot.

Later, Shen Qingluo's grandmother dipped the pot in the soup on the plate and ate it clean.

Today, the only person who can think of this should be Su Jinrong.

Liu Wanhua was really moved, she didn't expect that more than 40 years had passed, and Su Jinrong still remembered it.

Seeing that Liu Wanhua was already in tears, Shen Qingluo asked very strangely: "Grandma Wanhua, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Wanhua came back to her senses, wiped away the tears on her face, and said with a smile: "No, no, I remembered some of the past, this is not Su Ji's practice, it is your grandmother's invention of eating back then." ”

Hearing that it was a way to eat invented by his grandmother, Shen Qingluo couldn't help but be very curious.

Then, Liu Wanhua smiled and told Shen Qingluo what happened back then.

After hearing this, Shen Qingluo couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, I really didn't expect that grandma was really gluttonous before, and she even had to eat this soup cleanly." ”

Feng Yifan didn't stay long, because there were still dishes to be done in the back kitchen. But before returning to the kitchen, he still gave his father-in-law a thumbs up and gave him a thumbs up for the idea.

Su Jinrong saw his son-in-law's thumb, and a smile naturally appeared on his face.

In terms of age, Su Jinrong is much younger than Liu Wanhua and Shen Qingluo's grandmother.

When Liu Wanhua asked him for help that year, Su Jinrong was still a primary school child. At that time, Su Jinrong had the impression that Liu Wanhua was a fairy-like big sister, so he would naturally help when he was young.

Perhaps in the eyes of many young people nowadays, they will think that Liu Wanhua was the goddess in the eyes of Su Jinrong at that time.

It can be said that it is different, but in fact it is different, Su Jinrong's thoughts at that time were still relatively simple, that is, he simply thought that Liu Wanhua was beautiful.

After so many years, Su Jinrong naturally remembers some things back then.

Especially in Su Jinrong's memory, after the accident of Senior Sister Liu Wanhua's family, she once came to Su Ji to order a plate of squirrel mandarin fish, and begged Su Jinrong's father at that time to put a pot underneath.

Old Man Su made an exception and agreed.

After serving the food, Su Jinrong saw with his own eyes that Liu Wanhua, who was only in her early twenties at that time, was alone, and ate the whole plate with tears.

Shen Qingluo took a bite of the fish and immediately praised: "Wow, Grandma Wanhua's fish is so delicious, it won't be very sweet, with a little bit of sourness, it's really delicious." ”

Liu Wanhua took out a pot dipped in soup from below, put it in Shen Qingluo's bowl and said, "You can taste this again." ”

Shen Qingluo picked up the pot soaked in the soup in the bowl and slowly put it in her mouth for a moment. Liu Wanhua was in a trance in front of her, as if she saw that sister many years ago, sitting in front of her and eating a lot.
