Dad Yu stood up from the dining chair and walked out without saying a word.
"Lao Yu, where are you going?" Yu's mother stuck her head out of the kitchen in confusion. It's already this hour and you still want to go out?
Yu Jian also looked at him doubtfully.
"I..." Yu's father opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to tell his family. He wanted to quit his job so that he would never have to be angry again.
But he didn't have much confidence in making this decision. After all, it was a job he loved, and he still owed boss Han for his kindness.
After being stunned for a long time, he murmured a few words: "I just feel a little bored and want to go out for a walk."
At midnight, it started to rain lightly again.
Yu Jian was a little cold due to the air conditioner, so she turned over and turned up the temperature, and by accident, she opened the curtains and took a look outside.
The large locust tree at the door was swaying in the wind, and clusters of small white flowers were floating in the air. Under the eaves in the corner of the yard, Father Yu was sitting with his head down, smoking, and staring blankly at the falling raindrops.
Ever since the uninvited guest left, Yu's father has been feeling very strange. He is absent-minded when doing things and is distracted when talking to him. Something must be wrong.
Yu Jianjiu pulled off her slippers, quietly closed the door, and went out to chat with him.
"Dad -" Yu Jian stood behind him for a long time, but he didn't respond, so she had no choice but to call him.
Dad Yu was startled, and the cigarette ashes in his hand almost fell on his pants. He quickly patted it away, threw away the cigarette butt, and showed an embarrassed smile on his face: "I'll just come out and smoke a cigarette."
Who are you lying to? I’ve been watching you for a long time...
Yu Jian pulled him to sit side by side on the steps. She moved closer to her father, rested her head on his shoulder, and said in a coquettish tone: "Are you in a bad mood? Can you tell me?"
This was the first time she showed off her little daughter's cuteness, and the first time she was so close to her father.
It feels...not bad...
Dad Yu's broad shoulders made her feel safe, just like the master did the same thing many years ago, letting her lean on his shoulders and leading her around the huge city of Chang'an.
"You discovered it..." Father Yu stroked the soft top of his daughter's hair. He found that his daughter, who seemed cold and indifferent on the surface, was actually quite sensitive. Moreover, she was already smart and could not hide anything from her.
Dad Yu did not treat her as a child who was ignorant of the world, and repeated exactly what Han Yubai came to tell him today.
After Yu Jian listened quietly, she probably had some ideas in her mind.
Jin Fulou's old club is ill, and now his young boss Han Yubai is in charge of Jin Fulou. Wang De is his confidant, and Yu Jianguo was promoted by his old club. Naturally, the two are in tit-for-tat at every turn.
It's also because Yu Jian was too sharp and sharp, which caused Wang De to stumble as soon as he arrived. Now, everyone from top to bottom in Jinfulou is saying that Chef Wang is no better than a little girl.
So today, Han Yubai came here for two things: one is a banquet, and the other is beating. This beating is the main purpose. Father Yu has been in Jinfulou for a day, so he has to be careful in what he says and does. After all, beating Wang De is
I slapped Boss Xiao Han in the face.
As for the banquet hosted by Mr. Jin, Father Yu confirmed that it was indeed true. However, Han Yubai had already found a Chaozhou chef, but unexpectedly he was let go again, so he thought of Yu Jianguo.
"Then what do you think?" Yu Jian asked seriously. If he really didn't want to prepare a banquet, Father Yu wouldn't be so distressed.
No matter which choice you make, it's a dilemma.
Father Yu was silent. He had not thought about it himself and did not know how to answer his daughter's question.
The small green-white hands touched the dark and rough back of Yu's father's hand, and the thin scars on the fingertips could still be seen vaguely. Yu Jian knew that this was the chef's testimony.
She pushed back her wind-blown bangs behind her ears and said lightly: "If you want to have this banquet, I will help you."
Dad Yu raised his head. Under the misty light in the rain, Yu Jian's fair face exuded a light like white jade...
…
Jin Lao's name was Jin Changguo. He was the vice president of Beijing University at the time. He published various sharp articles and was a walking cultural relic.
Jin Changguo's family was poor when he was young. He was born in a poor mountain village near Chaozhou. However, he was smart and refused to admit defeat since he was a child. He became the first student to leave the village and pass the Capital University. It is said that the cost of studying at the university was paid for by the villagers' families.
from.
Even though he later became famous and powerful, he never forgot his hometown village.
Yu Jian asked Yu's father to carefully inquire about Jin Changguo's background, which probably gave him some confidence.
When Jin Changguo settled in the capital, what he missed most was the local cuisine from Chaozhou. Regarding this, Yu Jian recognized him very much. If there was a chance, she would also like to meet Mr. Jin.
"Ajian...are you really sure about this? Or let's forget it..." Father Yu was frightened and had no confidence in himself.
If this goes wrong, not only Yu Jianguo but also Jin Fulou will become a laughing stock in the industry. How can he be worthy of boss Han?
Yu Jian raised her eyes, gave him a calm look, and winked playfully: "Dad, you don't believe me, and you still don't have confidence in our recipes?"
The heritage of the Yu family comes from Chaozhou. Although the dishes on this remnant recipe are a bit complicated, they are generally not difficult. As long as she cooperates well with Yu's father, it is not a big deal to reproduce them completely.
But Yu Jian’s plan is not just to reproduce.
The Yu family has been in decline for so many years, and as the heir, Yu's father has been humiliated outside. Now that she plans to accept this recipe, she must take advantage of this east wind to bring the Yu family back into the public eye.
As for Wang De...
Huh, everyone on the left and right is a guy who can't stand on the stage!
Yu Jian rolled her eyes, and her heart was filled with tears.
Father Yu rubbed his hands and was still beating in his heart: "But...but I only know how to cook the Soggy Rich Shrimp, and the rest..." It's really not that good.
The four main dishes of Yujia Zanpu are: soft-boiled rich shrimps, charcoal-grilled snails, stir-fried eel blood and fresh braised hand-washed crabs. The main soup is pork belly and chicken soup.
With more than 20 years of cooking skills, Dad Yu could only manage to finish the Soft Fortune Shrimp, let alone the following dishes with complicated techniques.
As for Yu Jian, although Yu’s father thinks he is not as good as her, after all, this child is only 16 years old and has not even gone to college...
"Ajian...or forget it."
This sentence is quite affirmative.
"Your filial father knows about it, but these are not your responsibility. Dad will take care of it himself." Dad Yu touched Yu Jian's head. The girl had grown a lot in his absence and was almost there.
his shoulders.
Um???
What kind of monster are you making? You can't trust him so much?
If the man in front of him hadn't been his biological father, Yu Jian would have cursed him before!
A grown man, coy, if he wants to fight, he will fight!
