Chapter 267 The New Year's Monthly Pass

Prepare to cook and prepare Cantonese ingredients.

For lunch, I had chicken, describe it, and then Laohuo soup. In the afternoon, I went to the drugstore next door to buy some medicinal materials. Codonopsis pilosula, wolfberry, chicken bone grass, kudzu root, and lotus leaves. When I came back, I happened to meet someone who had just been brought here.

The girl is very beautiful, with fair skin and beautiful appearance.

A Cai left after eating, and soon customers began to come one after another.

Most of the people were dressed in the style of the late Qing Dynasty. There were only a few or two dressed in women's attire and wide-brimmed hats. They were all sitting in a same-price restaurant eating without disturbing each other.

I feel a little uncomfortable wearing this after wearing it for so many years. When I first got up, I thought the fabric was from the Republic of China period.

There is also a melon-pipe hat on his head, but because Chen Nian cut off his braid, he puts all his hair into the hat when he wears it.

Therefore, Qiao and Yong never discovered it.

I still work in a restaurant, but now it doesn’t feel boring, but rather a bit novel.

Most of the dishes sold here are different from what I usually see.

For example, jelly chicken, salted egg patties, salted fish steamed rice, green peppers or tofu stuffed with meat, etc., are all very Cantonese specialties.

Looking at these dishes, even though Chen Nian opens a restaurant every day, I can't help but feel a little greedy at this time.

Finally, we waited until there were fewer people and it was our turn to eat the staff meal.

In the past, Mr. Qiao would cook something he wanted to eat at noon and eat it with Chen Nian, but today Mr. Qiao was really too lazy to cook.

Just let Chen Nian take a look at what's on sale today and eat whatever you want.

But Chen Nian did not serve himself a meal immediately. Instead, he asked, "Shopkeeper Qiao, what do you want to eat? I'll give it to you."

Although Mr. Qiao doesn't look old, he is still sixty-seven years old.

Even though he is very handy, isn't it just to save yourself trouble by having a helper?

"Salted egg patties, Laohuo soup, get me some Bawang flowers."

Chen Nian nodded, took out a piece of steaming salted egg patty from the side, and then filled the bowl with rice and placed it in front of Qiao Heyong.

Then he went to the pot and scooped out a bowl of soup, but he didn't fish out the scallops, chicken feet or anything like that, because there were related records in his old memory. Mr. Qiao didn't like to eat most of these, because he thought they were too much.

It is an ingredient used to make soup. It is essentially the same as the peppercorns and aniseed used for cooking.

But some medicinal materials are excluded.

For example, Codonopsis pilosula, Overlord flower, and wolfberry are all Qiao Heyong's favorites.

I can't understand this because of aging. The taste of these medicinal materials is very strange.

Can only be blamed on everyone's taste.

Later, driven by greed, Chen Nian got himself some chicken. He had been curious about it from the beginning and wanted to know what it tasted like.

These looked like chicken nuggets from the outside, and although they were stir-fried over high heat at first, after all the aroma was brought out, Chen Nian saw Mr. Qiao pour some more liquid into them.

But the aging distance was quite far at that time, so I couldn’t tell whether it was water, white vinegar or wine.

Putting it on the table, Chen Nian sniffed it inadvertently.

"It smells very fresh, maybe it has something to do with the sauce that Mr. Qiao put in just now, but you can still smell the sweetness."

Chen Nian analyzed it in his mind.

Then he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

It's not too difficult to cut a few pieces into your mouth and pick the meat on them with your teeth, as long as your tongue is a little more flexible.

The sweet and salty flavors in this chicken dish seem to be indistinguishable. If we talk about cooking in the past, one of salt and sugar would be the dominant one, and the other would be used as an auxiliary to enhance the taste.

But Ge Ge Chicken can detect two flavors colliding in the mouth at the same time.

But under such broad contradictions and conflicts, Chen Nian doesn't feel that any of them are too redundant at this moment.

Just like a girlfriend's changeable personality, sometimes she is a stern lady who scolds her whenever she disagrees, and sometimes she is a soft and cute girl with strawberry yogurt and candy flavor, who is so sweet when she acts coquettishly.

But one day, my girlfriend in the cute girl form suddenly forgot to switch and directly said stern words in a soft and cute voice...

The sense of disobedience that is logically expected did not come to mind, but instead made people feel even more excited!

This brand new taste makes Chen Nian's eyes shine!

In addition, after being stir-fried over high heat and simmered for a long time with the lid on, the muscles were also stewed until they were so tender that they almost fell off the bones.

When it enters the mouth, you only need to press it gently with your tongue, then scrape your teeth along the bone, and use the lower teeth to coordinate the force at the same time, and the chicken will fall down in one piece.

The tender chicken is chewy and the juices burst out with every chew, splashing all over your mouth.

Passion is accompanied by tenderness, restrained yet surging.

After the chicken has been chewed cleanly by aging, you have to suck up all the rich sauce between the bones.

"How does it taste today?" Qiao Heyong asked.

"It's so delicious! I didn't taste it carefully when I ate it before, but after tasting it carefully today, I realized that the taste is very strange. I guess shopkeeper Qiao was also a famous chef in China."

"Hahaha." Qiao Heyong looked very happy. After all, he praised the quality of the wine and used the word "peculiar", which shows that it was not just a boast, but something that had been considered.

What is more comfortable than flattering someone is getting the point right.

"I can't say that I'm a famous chef. I'm at least a little famous. Although I worked as a handyman for more than ten years at first, I later became a chef after more than ten years. I also interviewed many famous chefs when I was in Jiaying.

.”

“No wonder it tastes so good.”

Previously, he asked Chen Nian to work hard, but Mr. Qiao looked at Chen Nian again and said: "You should work hard, young people are impetuous. When you can calm down, I will consider when to teach you."

"You were lucky. I happened to see you at that time, and you are also down-to-earth and smart. Do you know where the guy before you went?" Qiao Heyong asked.

"Didn't you go to find relatives?" Chen Nian recalled the memories in his mind. This was what Qiao Heyong had always told him before, including the neighbors and diners who came to eat.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Heyong shook his head.

"That's all for outsiders to hear. His hands and feet are not clean. My son sent him to the mines to mine with the black slaves. He himself came to Jinshan to pan for gold on credit with the smuggler.

If I hadn't brought him to Chinatown, he would have died long ago, but since he doesn't cherish it, I can only fulfill his wish."

"Some people, if given the opportunity to be a human being, they will not want to be a human being and insist on becoming piglets."

Chen Nian felt a chill in his heart when he heard this. He knew that this pig was Piglet.

At first, the "pigs" were driven ashore by whips and stuffed into a large sack. Capitalists who wanted to buy labor were asked to bargain with each other and then weigh them one by one like the "pigs". The capitalists one by one
