The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 1107 The show begins

It seemed like a long time had passed.

Standing at the gate of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang again, looking at the rusty blue doorplate, Nan Yi felt as if he was in another world.

If there hadn’t been a new Jiaodaokou Supply and Marketing Cooperative nearby, Nan Yi would have really felt like he was living in a dream, with a beautiful figure waiting for him in the yard.

At this moment, he was filled with mixed emotions. He stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching people coming in and out. There was a red "囍" character pasted on the door, and he sighed.

He arrived on time today, according to the wedding time provided by Qin Huairu. As the head chef of Ma Hua and Qin Jingru's wedding banquet, he once again came to this courtyard that had once haunted him.

"Hey, Master Nan, you're here, come in quickly, come in, everything is ready, someone was just asking if the master is here~!"

Qin Huairu, who had been waiting in the back room, her eyes suddenly lit up when she saw Nan Yi. Her expression was exactly the same as when the female anchor met the top guy on the list.

"Well, since you promised, I will come naturally~!"

Nan Yi tugged at the shoulder straps and adjusted the suitcase on his body and said calmly, without even looking at Qin Huairu, as he walked into the yard.

His face was expressionless, and it was unclear who he was angry with, Qin Huairu who had plotted against him, or Liang Ladi who had forced him to come.

By the way, where is Liang Ladi?
Nan Yi, who had just stepped over the threshold, took a step back. He was in a daze just now and didn't really bother to see if Liang Ladi had come. As a result, no one outside noticed her.

"Is there anyone else, a little kitchen helper who can help? If not, I'll come and lend a hand to you~!"

Qin Huairu seemed to be completely unaware of the keep-out aura that Nan Yi was emitting. Seeing that Nan Yi seemed to be looking for someone, she quickly introduced herself with a smile.

He Yuzhu didn't know why she failed to get in touch with Teacher Ran and got involved with Liu Lan. She had no choice now and could only continue to try to change Nan Yi's mind.

After all, it was just the end of the month and Nan Yi had received his salary. He now had at least 40 yuan. Just for this salary, Qin Huairu had to put on a smile.

If he can't afford to offend Liu Lan who is watching over He Yuzhu, how can he afford to offend Nan Yi who comes alone?

"Thank you, no need, I can do it alone~!"

Nan Yi, who didn't want to have any more contact with Qin Huairu, went to the front yard, looked at the familiar scene, and casually refused.

It was here that Ding Qiunan's fate changed. After saving Li Feng's sister, her father was transferred to Hexie Hospital, and soon after, he was seconded away.

I just don’t know if it’s because of Li Feng or if Ding Qiunan’s father started taking care of his daughter.

"Where's the cook? Has the cook arrived? What time is it~?"

"Here they come, here they come, people are coming~!"

Nan Yi did not have much time to reminisce. Early in the morning, the neighbors in the yard had already washed the dishes, set up the stoves, bought the necessary vegetables, and were waiting for him, the master chef, to arrive.

Nan Yi, who was silent, placed the box on his back on the table next to the stove, from which there could be heard the sound of bottles and jars colliding with each other.

"Hello, Master. I'm sorry to bother you today. Come and see me. If you need anything, tell me. I'm the child's uncle~!"

As soon as Nan Yi got into position, someone from Ma Hua's family came over. Not only did he hand him a cigarette, he also poured tea for the master. Behind the children's back, he grabbed a handful of hard fruit candies and stuffed them directly into Nan Yi's pocket.

"You're welcome, Master. Take it, take it~!"

Nan Yi also took the offer at the wedding banquet. After turning down the cigarette and accepting the fruit candy, he started to get busy. After putting on the apron with sleeves, he really looked like a real deal.

It was early in the morning and many people had not eaten yet. Qing was waiting for this meal of noodles. In Beijing, people are particular about this. They have to give a bowl of noodles to the people who help out. If they are more particular, they even have to put two eggs in it.

Nan Yi took a look at the prepared ingredients, weighed them, then lit the fire, boiled water, and put the noodles in, all in one go.

While waiting for the noodles, I cut the vegetables and shredded meat. Since there were not enough eggs, I made noodles with vegetables and shredded meat. At least it would save the host's face.

Nan Yi started to work meticulously. Qin Huairu was not the only one who felt relieved when seeing this scene.

In the same industry, they are enemies. Especially after knowing that Nan Yi had taken over the kitchen management of his third canteen, He Yuzhu jumped out from somewhere. "Hey, buddy, we meet again~!"

He Yuzhu, who was in a carefree state, did not choose to lend a hand to help Ma Hua. Instead, he leaned against the wall beside the stove, with his hands in his arms, and watched Nan Yi busy himself.

Nan Yi looked up at He Yuzhu and recognized this chef, who had wanted to learn his way of making braised pork.

Nan Yi just took a look and didn't open his mouth to chat. The noodles cooked quickly, and the half-fat and half-lean shredded pork had to be cut and seasoned quickly. If he delayed, it would not be vegetable and pork noodles, but vegetable noodles.

He Yuzhu naturally knew what Nan Yi was preparing. He had definitely hosted more banquets than Nan Yi and was familiar with the rules of this industry.

But he still chose to interrupt. I don’t know why. It’s not that he is causing trouble, but it just prevents Nan Yi from concentrating on his preparations.

"Hey, I said, I prepared a lot of things~!"

Seeing that Nan Yi ignored him and picked up the bottles and jars in Nan Yi's box, Dazhuzi actually started to look at them. What's more, he even put his nose close to them and sniffed them.

"You are a cook too. Can others touch your toolbox?"

This was a bit too much. Even the good-tempered Nan Yi couldn't help but feel a little angry at this moment. The two were in the same industry, and this action was overstepping the line.

To put it bluntly, he prepared the seasoning himself and brought it himself, and the ingredients were provided by the host. If the diners had any problems with the food, these two are the only possible sources.

If his colleagues deliberately played tricks with the seasoning, the matter would be difficult to clear up and he, as the chef, would have to bear the consequences in the end.

"Smell, smell, oh, it's a big deal. I asked you how to make braised pork before, but you didn't tell me?"

Hearing Nan Yi questioning him, He Yuzhu curled his lips and put down the glass bottle he had just picked up. He was still thinking about what happened two years ago, which Nan Yi had long forgotten.

"You can ask but you can't do it. If there's something wrong with the food, you can't be held responsible. Please get out~!"

Facing the oily He Yuzhu, Nan Yi didn't give him a good look and politely asked him to leave the stove. This place was the chef's territory until the dishes were ready.

"Doudou cough, Doudou, look at you, you are still taking my shift, I have to see how capable you are~!"

He Yuzhu, feeling humiliated, put his hands in his pockets, not feeling embarrassed at all. He just looked at Nan Yi, opened the lid of the pot, and poured the seasoned shredded pork into the pot.

"Clang~!"

The moment the big pot lid was pressed down, misty steam spread out and all of a sudden, the sound of people swallowing saliva could be heard from time to time in the courtyard.

"This master is quite capable~!"

"It smells so good! These noodles are made with great cooking!"

The guests who came to help immediately started salivating, their taste buds couldn't help but salivate, even He Yuzhu changed his indifferent look.

"Scallion oil, sesame paste, pepper, and what else, mushrooms, wow, this is so delicious~!"

"Add oyster sauce, lard and chicken fat, mixed with dried and crushed mushrooms, and figure it out yourself~!"

Nan Yi was not surprised at all that He Yuzhu could smell his own ingredients through his nose, because he could do it too but he usually didn't show it. At this moment, he just wanted to catch this annoying guy and get rid of him as soon as possible.

"Tsk tsk, you, I have to remember, these ingredients, not to mention making noodles, they're even delicious when stuck on shoe soles~!"

"Alright, alright, stop making trouble here. Banggeng, Xiaodang, come here quickly. We've been busy all morning and the two kids are starving~!"

If we talk about the most skilled, it has to be Qin Huairu. She moved the tables, laid out the chairs, and washed the dishes. Apart from all that, just the identity of Jingru's cousin was enough to give her a free ride, but she still did the work.

The two children also washed the dishes, which clearly showed that they were taking advantage, but the host could not say anything and could only let her put the two children holding large bowls in front of the pot.

"Nan Yi, I'm sorry, I'm late~!"
