Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 270 Song Qianwen continues to find fault, He Yuzhu's temper

He Yuzhu looked at the complacent Song Qianwen with a half-smile. My goodness, did he really think he couldn't cook boiled cabbage?

Today I will let you see how good this chef is. Otherwise, there is no way to make a name for yourself. This is part of his plan. Now is a good time to build up connections.
In the play, He Yuzhu made friends with the big boss by cooking a meal. Not only did he get a lot of good things, but he also found a job for Banggeng.

No matter what the big boss thinks, and no matter how the silly Zhu in the play gets the favor of the big boss, one thing is certain, that is, the bonus of cooking skills is inevitable;

With his current cooking skills and the accumulation of his previous life, it is not impossible for him to open up a network of contacts;
He was just a cook, he cooked a few more meals and chatted with these high-ranking people, if he could gain one or two kindnesses, he would have achieved his goal;

Even if these people encounter problems during special periods, as long as they don't die, they can basically be reinstated in the end. At that time, isn't this an advantage for you?

He believes in a saying that the higher the status of a person, the lonelier he is, and the people around him are cautious. The higher the status, the less likely he is to hear the truth. If he can treat his friends as friends, he might really gain something! @
"Alas... Teacher Song, it seems that you don't believe me!"

He Yuzhu pretended to sigh and looked at Song Qianwen and Li Huaide with disappointment;
It seems to be saying, if you don’t believe it, why invite him?

"Yes, I'm really worried that you won't be able to do it and end up messing up. The guests here today are all honored guests, and we can't afford to lose face!"

Song Qianwen looked at He Yuzhu stubbornly. Bickering? She had never lost before, except with He Yuzhu.

With such a good opportunity today, she must do everything she can to gain the upper hand; but unfortunately she forgot that although the Song family has a high status, not everyone will buy into it. In He Yuzhu's eyes, the Song family is not necessarily more valuable than Li Huaide!
“Alas, I originally thought I was a good horse, and only agreed to it happily after being discovered by Brother Li, the Bole;

However, people with a keen eye are few and far between, and most people are just ordinary people who judge people by appearance. In this case, I am sorry to cause you trouble!"

He Yuzhu seemed to become disheartened and exhausted, he turned around and walked away with his bag on his back, without any hesitation;
His meaning was very clear. He came here today to give face to Li Huaide, not to give face to your Song family. Since you don’t believe it, it won’t be a bad thing if he leaves!
Song Qianwen was dumbfounded, Li Huaide's face turned green, and he looked at his wife reproachfully, thinking, "Did she use too much force?"

How can you tolerate this when you are complaining about him even before he has started? After all, he is a young man full of vigor and vitality. Who can tolerate his direct words?
You are a teacher, don't you know that you should know when to stop talking? You don't know how to be a teacher, you can't even grasp this little bit!

"Master Chen, can you cook these dishes? If you can, hurry up and don't dawdle!"

Li Huaide deliberately put on a stern face and looked at Master Chen who also had trachoma, and reminded his wife that if Master Chen couldn't do it, he would have to ask He Yuzhu to come back again, otherwise, it would be embarrassing!
Li Huaide looked at Master Chen. It's not that he didn't see what happened in the kitchen just now, but He Yuzhu ignored it and he didn't want to care. This chef was recommended by his father-in-law's old comrade-in-arms, and he didn't want to offend him.
But now He Yuzhu is done with it, and he doesn't want to hire another cook, so he can only rely on Master Chen. This is also to give face to his wife, and he will talk about appeasing He Yuzhu later;

If Master Chen can do it, it’s fine. Otherwise, the fun will be great. Birthday banquets are all home-cooked dishes. Ordinary families may be able to do it, but the Song family can’t;

Besides, he heard all the bragging his father-in-law said on the phone. He brought good wine, but they served ordinary side dishes. His father-in-law is only concerned about his face, so how could he be in a good mood?

"Son-in-law, there are many dishes that I have never seen before, let alone cook!"

Master Chen's face was frozen. He knew that Li Huaide didn't dare to say anything to Song Qianwen, so he could only point the finger at him to remind Song Qianwen that Master He was very important and it was not too late to chase him now.
Just now when he found Li Huaide, this person had already entered the door. He must have heard what He Yuzhu said. Now he was using him to control Song Qianwen. He could only admit it and dared not say anything.
He didn't expect that this young man was so hot-tempered and had not experienced the beatings of society. Sometimes, patience is more important than face!
"Wife, what should we do now? Our uncles are coming soon. Where can we find a cook at this critical moment?"

Li Huaide pretended to be anxious and looked at his wife, as if he wanted her to make the decision!
"Hurry up and get her back. You're still a grown man. Why are you so stingy? I'll tell Qiuyue about it later!"

Song Qianwen stamped her feet and pushed Li Huaide. She didn't expect He Yuzhu to be so rude and just leave without giving Li Huaide any face!

"Autumn Moon?"

Li Huaide looked at Song Qianwen in confusion. Who is Qiuyue?
"Hmph, let's talk about it later. The toad tried to eat the swan's flesh and succeeded!"

Song Qianwen didn't have the energy to elaborate. The most urgent matter was to get He Yuzhu back. She felt that the reason He Yuzhu was able to marry Cai Qiuyue was because of his eloquent mouth!

Li Huaide was in no mood to ask whether it was Chunyue or Qiuyue. The most urgent task was to find He Yuzhu. If he left the compound, it would not be so easy to find him again.
This kid is not only full of twisted ideas, but also has a bad temper and has no patience at all. I have to know how to strike a balance when dealing with him in the future!
At this time, He Yuzhu walked very slowly, as if he was afraid that the other party would not be able to catch up. He was sure that Li Huaide would invite him back. This was self-confidence.

The banquet is about to start, and the so-called Chef Chen is definitely not up to the task. When he was looking at the menu just now, his brows knitted together, and he was in a state of confusion;

If Master Chen is a master of Sichuan cuisine, and Li Huaide recommends a chef, the Song family may not agree. They already have a great chef at home, so why make a fuss about it?
But he agreed to it. From this, we can think that Chef Chen's level is average. When he looked at the menu, he observed that Chef Chen's brows were furrowed, which was the rhythm of not being able to cook;
Therefore, he was sure that Li Huaide would catch up with him, and he did this not for no reason;
First, he should improve his status and not be too flattering. It is not his style to endure being bullied. Second, he should maximize his benefits. If Li Huaide invites him again, he should give him face, which can promote the relationship to a higher level.
As expected, the sound of leather shoes behind him told him that Li Huaide was coming!
"Zhu Zi, why are you so angry? Women... have long hair but little knowledge. Don't bother with her. Come on, follow me back!"

"Brother Li, it's not that I don't give you face, but the other party doesn't welcome it. If that's the case, why should I move forward with a licking face?"

He Yuzhu laughed secretly, if I don't show my temper at the right time, you will think I'm easy to bully;
It's not a good deal if you're rushing to do something. No wonder Zhuge Kongming wanted to show off. Sometimes it's necessary!

"Zhu Zi, this is all a joke. How about giving Brother Li some face?"

Li Huaide smiled bitterly. Although this boy was easy to talk to, he had a very strong character once he was offended.
Not only is he good at talking, but he is also a bit stubborn. As a young man, it's not surprising. Wasn't he like this before? Now he has been worn out!

"Since Brother Li has said so, I'll give you this face; since you've come here, it means that Chef Chen's cooking skills are not up to par, otherwise..."

Can He Yuzhu leave? Of course not. If he really leaves, he will completely offend Li Huaide. Wouldn't it be a joke for him to come and cook? His purpose is not to make friends with the Song family, but to make friends with Li Huaide, the future big shot!
Song Qianwen was relieved to see He Yuzhu coming back. She almost made a big mistake. Although she was in her thirties and a little willful, she knew the priorities and was not a brainless woman.
She just reflected on herself. It's a good thing to be competitive, but she has lost her standards. She denied He Yuzhu in various ways before he even took action. It was really too much!
"He Yuzhu, if you can do it, I will recognize He Yushui as my sister and take care of her studies until graduation.

However, the dishes you cook cannot satisfy the guests. How about you take a week-long course with Yu Shui? Do you dare to accept it? "

Although she realized that she had gone too far, she admitted that it was impossible. She had just asked Master Chen, and considering He Yuzhu's age, he might be able to do it, but it was unlikely that he would be appreciated by the guests who had eaten the state banquet.
After all, boiled cabbage is a dish served at state banquets. It is not easy for He Yuzhu to cook it at such a young age. How could he possibly do it well?
He Yuzhu looked at the provocative Song Qianwen with a smile on his face. "I haven't let you know how powerful I am, and you're still not done yet?"

You can't offend him, but it's okay to vent your anger. He's the one who offered it to you, so no one can blame him!

"Brother Li, please prepare a pen and paper. I have a bad habit of being too serious about everything.

My sister-in-law wants to make a bet, so let's sign it. A real man has nothing to fear in this world. Haha... I accept this bet!"

Li Huaide's forehead was covered with black lines. He Yuzhu, you are aiming at him. Do you know that you will have no friends if you are so serious?

Just now he was asked to sign a written agreement, and now he has to sign it with his wife. Damn it, where is the trust we promised? He felt like banging his head against the wall!
"Lao Li, I like serious people like this. You write it and I'll sign it with him!"

Song Qianwen sneered. How could this scare her? What a joke!
Li Huaide looked at the two people who were full of confidence, and he was in a dilemma. His wife was too ignorant of the seriousness of the matter. What would it matter if you won once? According to his understanding, with He Yuzhu's evil nature, this matter would not be so simple;
He Yuzhu is the same. Why bother with a woman? What if he wins? No, if he wins, his wife will probably have a headache, right? This guy is very weird. I think his wife will be deeply educated this time?

"Teacher Song, let's make it clear first. Boiling cabbage is fine, but it must be cooked for a long time, otherwise it won't count!"

"Of course, I will definitely win you fairly and I won't have any bad intentions, you can rest assured!"

Song Qianwen looked at He Yuzhu with disdain. If she wanted to win, she had to win openly and honestly, not bothering to have any evil thoughts?
In fact, as things had developed to this point, she was just trying to relieve herself and had no intention of making things difficult for He Yuzhu;
It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but things got pushed to this point step by step. I can only say it's my personality and I can't blame anyone!
He Yuzhu waved his hand, wrote his name on the receipt and carefully packed it up. Song Qianwen frowned at the poorly written words. Wasn't it too ugly?

"Very good, prepare the food!"

After signing, He Yuzhu began to prepare the dishes. Li Huaide gave his wife a reproachful look. Soon, all the guests arrived.

He Yuzhu first hung the soup, which would take four hours, and some people waited; then the Feiluan knife danced in his hand, as if the knife was not a tool, but a part of his body;

Before Master Chen could react, the potato shreds were already cut. Looking at the potato shreds that were almost the same thickness and length, Master Chen knew that his was far inferior to He Yuzhu's;
I finally understood why Li Huaide hired a cook from the steel mill. He was indeed far from good enough.
He thought he was a good cook, but now he finally knows what it means that there are always people who are better than you.
While Master Chen was sighing, the ingredients had already been cut and set aside. Master Chen looked at Teacher Song and seemed to be hesitant to speak!

"Master Chen, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't be so hesitant!"

"Teacher Song, please forgive me for being blunt, but you may lose!"

"Are you kidding? We haven't even started yet, what's your basis?"

"Teacher Song, you may not know that the level of a chef's skill is determined by his knife skills. Master He's knife skills are already superb.

If you don't believe me, take a look at the freshly cut potato shreds. I dare say that it is difficult to distinguish the thickness with the naked eye.
Next, it depends on the ingredients and the cooking time. From my observation, if the knife skills can be practiced to this level, the ingredients and cooking time must be good. This is the best knife skills I have ever seen!"

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. From his knife skills we can see that He Yuzhu has a very solid foundation. He is the apprentice of Chef Wang of Fengze Garden, so how could his ingredients and cooking control be bad?

It's really not up to the mark. It's impossible for Wang Dana to let He Yuzhu become a disciple. A strict teacher will produce an excellent student!

At this time, He Yuzhu has already started to serve the dishes. Fuqi Feipian, Koushui Chicken, Dengying Beef Shreds, and Cold-mixed Pig Ears are also called appetizers or side dishes.

He Yuzhu then heated up the oil and started cooking, including twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, braised pork elbow, Jiangyou pork intestines, chicken tofu, fish-flavored vermicelli chicken, Meizhou Dongpo Songhua eggs, and pig brain flower;

He removed the braised pork from the dish. Song Qianwen didn't understand, but as a cook, she had to understand that banquets had their own rules, and eight main dishes were enough.
Li Huaide and Song Qianwen were stunned. Can cooking be so beautiful and elegant? Yes, in their eyes, it was elegance. It felt like He Yuzhu was not cooking, but carving a work of art.
From then on, Master Chen was completely convinced. He knew that his Taoism was far inferior to He Yuzhu's. He estimated that if his master were still alive, he would only sigh that their realms were different!
"Brother Li, Teacher Song, stop being in a daze and serve the food quickly. If it gets cold, it won't taste good!"

"Ooh!"

The guests were of high status, and the dishes were prepared by them personally. There was a chef and a maid in the kitchen, who were both personal secretaries sent by the industry to the leaders.

With Mr. Song's current status, he naturally has the qualifications, and this is also to reduce their living burden and allow them to concentrate on their work;

Legally speaking, the Song couple are equivalent to lonely elderly people. Their daughter is married, and both her and her son-in-law are working, so they do need care in their life!
