Wei Xiaokun returned to the dishwashing room and moved another pile of dishes to the kitchen. Suddenly, there was a crunching sound from the sink, and at the same time, she heard a scream, "Oh... hiss..."
Tongdao Xu's eyes were attracted.
I saw her pinching the fingers of her left hand with her right hand and frowning. In the pool in front of her, a broken goblet silently told its story.
"What's wrong? Little girl?"
A dishwashing lady not far away turned her head and asked.
But he didn't come over to take a look.
The other dishwashing aunt didn't even ask, she just glanced at the girl.
"Oh it's all right!"
The nine-headed beauty shook her head and replied without asking the two aunts for help.
Xu Tongdao hesitated slightly and walked over. He saw that her left index finger was indeed scratched and there was blood coming out. She frowned and looked around, as if looking for something to stop the bleeding.
But this is a dishwashing room, where is there anything to stop the bleeding? If it were a shabby kitchen in the countryside, you might be able to find a piece of spider web and press it on the wound to stop the bleeding.
"Do you need help?"
Tongdao Xu asked calmly.
Anyway, the wound on her finger was not big, and she didn’t tell him her name just now, but he still remembered it!
Hearing this, she looked over and said, "No need!"
She subconsciously refused.
Have backbone!
Comrade Xu smiled and asked again: "You don't want a band-aid?"
"Do you have a Band-Aid?"
She was surprised.
"No!" Xu Tongdao answered naturally.
She looked at him speechlessly and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"But if you want it, I can ask the chef for you. There should be some in his office."
Comrade Xu said again.
She just looked away and looked back again, her expression even more speechless, "Well, then you can help me get one, thank you!"
She forced a smile and made this request.
Comrade Xu smiled faintly, turned around and left, "Wait!"
Chef Luo Zongping does have band-aids and burn ointment in his office! These are common items in the kitchen.
Comrade Xu went to Luo Zongping's office and easily asked for two band-aids.
When she returned to the dishwashing room, she was still standing at the sink, but the water stains on her hands had been wiped off. When she saw the two band-aids in his hand, a look of joy appeared on her face.
"Thank you, thank you!"
She came over quickly, stretched out her hand and took the two band-aids from Xu Tongdao's hand.
Seeing her lowering her head and wasting no time in applying a band-aid, Xu Tongdao did not rush to help, although he knew that if he reached out to help, she would not refuse and he would be able to touch her hand.
But...what's the meaning?
Although he admires her beauty and good figure, if he just touches her little hands, he has no interest in her, will not get any big advantage, and will ruin his own image.
"Can you tell me now, what is your name?"
He crossed his arms and asked calmly.
She paused in her hand movements, hesitated for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at him, "My surname is Bu, Bu Yinghui."
Her voice was very low, but the last name she mentioned - Bu, tested Comrade Xu's cultural level on the spot.
"Bu?buyinghui?What bu?"
Tongdao Xu searched his memory bank, but he couldn't recall such a surname among hundreds of surnames, nor could he remember anyone he knew before who had this surname.
Hearing this, she raised her eyes to look at him again, and when she saw his frowning and confused expression, she couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, "Add a little bit to each vertical line, which means radish, but as a surname, this character is pronounced bu."
Thanks to Teacher Bu, Mr. Xu learned one more word today.
In fact, he wanted to ask her which word yinghui was in her name, but that seemed to show that his cultural level was too low. He was not sure which word it was in her name, which was a bit embarrassing.
So he endured it.
Anyway, I just need to know how to pronounce her name for now.
Buyinghui……
The name sounds pretty nice.
"Thank you!"
Bu Yinghui had already put a band-aid on it, and when she turned to leave, she said thank you again.
Watching her wash the goblet again, completely ignoring the finger that had just been covered with a band-aid, Xu Tongdao narrowed his eyes and did not go up to help her.
He knew she would refuse.
He didn't want her to think he had evil intentions and rushed to lick her.
The main reason is that the wound on her finger is not big and is covered with a band-aid, so it doesn't continue to bleed and she will be fine after a while.
…
Comrade Xu returned to the kitchen and began to prepare for the whole sheep feast that he had reserved for noon today.
At this time, the guests haven't arrived yet, so he will make some cold dishes for the time being.
Because today is his first time making a complete whole-sheep feast at Zhiweixuan, and also because the cutting and matching master, Jiang Jinsong, has never cooperated with him before.
Therefore, today's cold dishes, from cutting to seasoning, were all done by Xu Tongdao himself.
While he was cutting the matches, Jiang Jinsong watched from the side.
"I'm going to cut and prepare the whole lamb feast today, just as a demonstration for you, please watch carefully!"
With that said, Xu Tongdao began to cut haggis and make a haggis platter.
Cutting haggis doesn't reflect his knife skills.
After arriving, when he was making plain mutton and cutting the mutton into slices, Jiang Jinsong and Wei Xiaokun were surprised.
For the first time, Tongdao Xu's knife skills were truly displayed before their eyes.
Each piece of mutton was cut to an even thickness, and the cutting speed was not slow. It only took Comrade Xu two or three breaths to cut a piece of plain mutton.
After cutting it, he casually used the kitchen knife in his hand to pat the cut mutton slices diagonally, and all the mutton slices were pressed one by one and spread flatly on the chopping board.
He then fished it out with a kitchen knife and put it on the plate. The mutton slices were transferred to the plate, which was more neat and beautiful than the ones that were separated one by one by hand.
In fact, not only Jiang Jinsong and Wei Xiaokun saw this knife skill.
Chef Luo Zongping, head chef Luo Zongshan and others also saw it.
Yesterday they saw Tongdao Xu's skills in cooking, and today they saw his excellent knife skills, and then looked at Tongdao Xu's face that was too young. For a while, the men were silent and the women were crying.
Not only that, Comrade Xu then performed a fancy trick for them.
A small tomato, also known as: cherry tomato.
Xu Tongdao took it and put it on the chopping board. He cut it in half with the kitchen knife in his hand, then cut the two halves of small tomatoes diagonally a few times on the left and a few more diagonally on the right. Then he used his fingers to cut the two halves.
The small tomatoes turned into the shape of two flowers.
He moved it to the corner of the plate where the mutton was cut. Then, he picked a few green French incense sticks and dotted them around the two halves of small tomatoes.
From a distance, it really looks like two small red flowers set off by green leaves.
