Chapter 092 Stubborn little old man

The last time this person commented on her fat sausage noodles, his words were sharp and sharp, and Gu Jinyao was convinced.

They came to deliver oil!

Guo Kun snorted coldly: "Didn't you say that I cheated on you by eating and drinking?"

Zhao Xiaogang didn't say anything. Their fat sausage noodles were so good and so many people ate them. He was definitely not convinced that this person could still find fault.

However, his sister-in-law said that he was a capable person and had real abilities, so he would just observe and observe for the time being.

Gu Jinyao smiled and said: "Uncle, maybe everyone had some misunderstanding before, but today, I came here specially to apologize to you."

Gu Jinyao parked the car and took out the oil can from the basket.

A large pot full of rapeseed oil weighs five kilograms by visual inspection.

As soon as Guo Kun saw the oil, he remembered the unforgettable aroma.

Under the temptation of oil, they still let the two people in.

The thatched house where Guo Kun lived was drafty. The inside was not much different from the outside, and it was still so cold.

The old man was drinking. There were two side dishes and a small wine glass on the table.

The shot glass looked a little older and had a hole missing.

Two dishes of side dishes...

Gu Jinyao took a closer look and was slightly surprised.

Among the two side dishes, one was extremely ordinary fried peanuts.

The earthy yellow peanuts are shiny and plump, and each grain seems to be carefully selected. The color is even, not too much, not too little, which shows the essence of the heat.

Such peanuts are coated with a little bit of finely crushed salt and placed on a small blue and white plate wrapped with gold edges. You can feel the feeling and aroma of peanuts exploding in your mouth before you even take it into your mouth.

Next to the peanuts is a plate of green and white kohlrabi hearts.

I don’t know how he made this kohlrabi heart. The edges are emerald green and the middle is white. Just looking at it makes you feel refreshing and comfortable.

However, the main thing about this dish is not the color, but the skill of the knife and the presentation.

The cabbage slices seemed to have been copied, and the thickness was incredibly uniform.

Such cabbage slices are stacked in layers at this time, like a blooming green lotus, blooming on the plate.

The two dishes on the old and black wooden table in the mud house are like gold and jade that have strayed into the mortal world, making this big room shine.

Gu Jinyao has never tasted Guo Kun's two plates of side dishes to accompany wine, so he doesn't know how they taste. But just from the color, presentation and knife skills, it can be seen that this man's cooking skills are exquisite and his skills are profound.

Seeing Gu Jinyao staring at the dishes on the table, Guo Kun ignored her for the time being and carried the pot of oil into the makeshift kitchen next to it.

After a while, he came out with a bowl and a spoon in his hands.

That bowl contained the oil sent by Gu Jinyao.

"You delivered the oil on time. We just happened to run out of sesame oil at home, which almost ruined the dish."

As he spoke, Guo Kun picked up a spoon and poured a little oil on the plate of cabbage hearts.

His hands were very steady and his movements were as smooth as water. The oil poured on the vegetables and disappeared just in time.

Guo Kun took the spoon to his nose, sniffed it, and asked Gu Jinyao, "How did you get this oil?"

His decades of practice have not revealed any secrets.

Gu Jinyao smiled, "A craft passed down from our ancestors."

Naturally, ancestral craftsmanship cannot be told outside.

Guo Kun didn't ask any more questions. He sat down on his own, tasted the kohlrabi heart, nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "You can go."

Zhao Xiaogang: "..."

This old man turned his back on them and disowned them after taking advantage of them.

If it weren't for the fact that this man had real abilities, Zhao Xiaogang would have just turned around and left.

Yes, Zhao Xiaogang also noticed that Guo Kun was different from the cooks in the village who cooked big pots and served banquets.

Gu Jinyao came here to become a disciple, and she would definitely not leave until her goal was achieved.

She said: "Uncle Guo, I heard that you are planning to become a cook and recruit apprentices. What are the requirements?"

Guo Kun glanced at Gu Jinyao, shook his head and said, "You can't do it."

Gu Jinyao froze. Before she said she wanted to apply, this person rejected her first.

"Please let me know clearly where I am lacking."

Gu Jinyao would not just let it go if the goal was not achieved.

Guo Kun: "I don't recruit girls."

Gu Jinyao: "..." Dare to love is related to gender.

"Why?" she asked.

Guo Kun was a little impatient when he was asked, "I am a village cook, cooking a big pot of rice, not a chef in a restaurant. You big girls and little wives have thin arms and legs. Apart from cutting some vegetables and washing a few bowls, you can't do anything else."

It simply can’t be done.”

Now, Gu Jinyao understood.

When hosting banquets in the village, in addition to moving tables and stools, sometimes you also have to cut the bones and separate pigs. The steamers are built as high as one person, and the shovels used for cooking are two or three times larger than usual.

Men are indeed better suited to do these jobs.

In the book, the heroine worships Guo Kun as her teacher. There is not much mentioned about how she lived during this period and how she learned from him.

The book only talks about how smart she is, how she draws inferences from one example, how she develops new dishes on her own, how much praise she receives, how awesome she is, how awesome she is, and how easily she has learned this craft.

But in reality, things are never that simple.

Maybe the author who wrote this book didn't know what a rural chef looked like or how he usually worked, so he didn't describe much in the book.

Or maybe the author just wants to write an enjoyable article and doesn't need to worry about so many details.

In her last life, she was deceived by Zhou Qianlin early. Gu Jinyao didn't know how Gu Liuying became a disciple and how much effort she made.

But Gu Liuying can open a hotel, which proves that she is also capable.

Since she can learn it, of course she can too.

Gu Jinyao: "Uncle Guo, maybe I need someone else to help me with the promotion. Otherwise, there should be no problem."

They are all girls from rural areas, and none of them have any physical strength.

But Guo Kun didn't give her a chance at all, "I said I don't want a girl, so I don't want a girl. You girl, why don't you listen to me?"

This man started to get angry without even saying a few words.

Gu Jinyao had never dealt with such a stubborn old man with a bad temper, and he really didn't know how to deal with it.

Zhao Xiaogang couldn't help it anymore and started to express his grievances for Gu Jinyao, "My sister-in-law is so skilled in craftsmanship. She wants to become your teacher, but you, an old man, are so arrogant. What are you arrogant about? Just because she is a girl and has no strength? A lot of it.

Men are strong, but do they have such a talent as my sister-in-law? If you push such a good apprentice out because of such a trivial matter, sooner or later you will regret it!"

Zhao Xiaogang's words were also rude, which completely pissed them off. Guo Kun immediately blew his beard and glared, trying to drive them out.

Gu Jinyao had no choice but to take Zhao Xiaogang away first.

"Sister-in-law, if you really want to learn cooking skills, we will open a shop in the city in the future. There will be many capable people."

Zhao Xiaogang couldn't bear to see the people around him being disliked, and even advised Gu Jinyao not to care.
