While Fan Shufang was talking, the five brothers from the Su family and Su Xiaotian's brother and sister had already brought all the food to the big table in the main room.
There is a large pine table in the Su family hall.
It looks like it's an old thing from decades ago, but it's very sturdy.
It was left over from the previous landlord. Grandma Su liked it so she didn't replace it. After cleaning it carefully, she used it as a dining table.
When the Su family eats, there is room for more than a dozen people at this table.
Today, including Mr. and Mrs. Dong Yuanzhong and a security guard, there are exactly eleven people. This table is perfect.
Twelve dishes, four cold and eight hot, are placed on the table, which looks very eye-catching.
In addition, the table was full of color, flavor and taste, even Dong Yuanzhong was a little shocked.
But he was more shocked when he saw that this table actually had a tabletop added to it.
"Brother, why is there a table top on this table?"
Just ask if you don't understand. Dong Yuanzhong didn't think there was anything wrong with asking.
For the convenience of eating, Su Xiaotian added a layer of round plates to the solid wood table according to the style of later generations.
The dishes are placed on the disc and can be turned at any time for everyone's convenience.
There are tables like this on several large tables in Yiming Pavilion, but Dong Yuanzhong has never seen them.
"Grandpa Dong, the dishes are placed here. You can turn them around whenever you want to eat!"
Su Xiaotian gave a simple demonstration.
"There are many people in our family and it is inconvenient to eat food, so we came up with this method!"
This was commonly used in later generations, but at this time, it obviously did not spread.
Dong Yuanzhong praised: "She is indeed a smart girl. This is great, very good!"
Grandpa Su asked Dong Yuanzhong to sit down at the main seat, but Dong Yuanzhong did not agree in any case.
In the end, Grandpa Su took the main seat, Dong Yuanzhong sat on Grandpa Su's left hand side, and on his right was Fan Shufang.
Grandma Su sat on the right hand side of Grandpa Su. Next to Grandma Su was Liang Xiu, and next to Liang Xiu was Su Xiaotian.
Today's banquet was prepared by Grandma Su and Su Xiaotian. Liang Xiu had no use for it and was busy preparing gifts for Dong Yuanzhong and his wife.
He also didn’t come out until he had eaten.
The rest of the Su family brothers and the guards sat casually. The boys of about the same age were not so particular.
The guard looked at the delicious food on the table and fell into a battle between heaven and man.
He actually wanted to advise Dong Yuanzhong not to eat out casually.
After all, Dong Yuanzhong is the chief, what if someone has ulterior motives?
Furthermore, if Dr. Wu found out about it and had to lecture him for a long time, he would be scared!
But smelling the aroma of the food, the guard who could not resist the temptation finally gave up and sat down to wait for his meal.
He comforted himself that he knew what kind of character the leader had and would definitely not be able to persuade him.
Besides, the chief said since yesterday that he wanted to have dinner when he came to the Su family.
Isn't his advice now making the chief unhappy?
The chief is not happy, how can he, a little guard, be happy?
Seeing that the guard did not persuade him, Dong Yuanzhong smiled.
This kid is someone who can read eyes.
In another two years, if you train in the army, you will definitely be able to stand out in the future.
Little did the guard know that the head of his family had already planned his future in his mind.
He is now staring at the food on the table with bright eyes.
Rao was following the chief and had seen some occasions, but why did he feel that those banquets were not as good as the table in front of him?
Grandma Su really has two brushes when cooking.
Even if the family's conditions were not good a few years ago, Grandma Su would still cook carefully when she was eating rice bran.
It was at that time that the skill of Huohou knife was developed.
Cabbage, radish and potato seeds can all be cut beautifully in Grandma Su’s hands.
For ordinary noodle dishes and dumplings, Grandma Su can also make the heat perfect!
The chef quality cultivated over time is now fully utilized.
The knife skills are good, and the dishes cut out are absolutely beautiful and elegant.
These are the simplest. Grandma Su is very talented in cooking, and her control of heat is terrifyingly accurate.
In addition, Grandma Su's control of seasonings is also precise, and there will never be an inch more.
When these details are added together, the results will vary greatly.
What's more, Grandma Su is very particular about the ingredients used in today's meal, and they are all excellent ingredients.
If Su Xiaotian had to say it herself, it would be impossible to find such good ingredients in the market in Beijing.
Including one onion and one garlic, they are all taken out from the system mall. They are of high quality, can they be better?
After some humility, Dong Yuanzhong was the first to use his chopsticks.
What he picked up was a piece of braised pork.
Dong Yuanzhong took a bite, and his mouth was filled with fragrance and he was very moved.
No wonder the Su family can open a restaurant in the capital. I heard that the business is still very good.
Just relying on this craftsmanship, you can gain a foothold in the capital, and there is no problem in becoming famous in the capital!
"Sister-in-law is really good at cooking and deserves to be known as the best chef in the capital!"
Although Dong Yuanzhong's words were a compliment, they were somewhat sincere.
In his heart, the Su family is one of his own.
Grandma Su was praised by the boss and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
She replied nonchalantly: "You're too polite, I'm just cooking some home-cooked food, it's not worth mentioning!"
The guard looked at the home-cooked food in Grandma Su's mouth and really didn't know what to say. Can this be called home-cooked food?
Whose home-cooked dishes include fish, shrimps, and crabs? That’s fine. Are the sweet and sour short ribs and braised pork free of charge or tickets?
The dishes on the table are almost all hard dishes. Although there are vegetarian dishes, the guard deeply believes that these are just for relieving fatigue.
The chief’s family doesn’t eat home-cooked food like this!
I have to say that the guard's idea was right.
When Su Xiaotian formulated the recipe, she really thought about the problem of getting tired.
Therefore, four vegetarian dishes, two cold and two hot, are prepared.
"This is not a home-cooked meal. I don't hide it from my sister-in-law. I can't eat this kind of food on weekdays. It's good to have braised pork once in three days."
Dong Yuanzhong is also considered a big leader, but he still has requirements when it comes to eating and drinking, and he cannot do whatever he wants. There is one meat dish every day, sometimes it is chicken, sometimes it is fish, sometimes it is braised pork.
Dong Yuanzhong has no interest in chicken or fish. He only likes to eat oily and red braised pork.
"You may have had enough today!" Fan Shufang said with a smile.
Dong Yuanzhong was as happy as a child.
Fan Shufang smiled helplessly and said: "The doctor said that as he is older, he should pay attention to what he eats and drinks and not let him eat too much fat, but he is just greedy!"
Dong Yuanzhong sighed and smiled: "When I was a child, my family was poor and we couldn't eat meat during the Chinese New Year. Looking at the silly son of the landlord holding a bowl of big fat meat, I thought, I must work hard in this life and strive to eat it.
To the big fat one.”
While talking, Su Xiaotian seemed to see Dong Yuanzhong and sipped her saliva.
Obviously, that big bowl of fat meat back then must have been deeply imprinted in his memory.
