Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1141 Small Kitchen

"No, no, I have to treat you. With Master Xiao Zhang's teaching, I have gained a lot in the past two days. I have to treat you."

"..."

His words seemed to open the floodgates, and other technicians came over and clamored to treat him.

"Go, go, go! Don't make trouble here. I have to treat you to this meal today. No one can snatch it from me, or I will get angry with you!"

Seeing that he couldn't win the argument, Director Li took direct action and pushed aside a group of technicians who were competing with him for the dinner.

Although these technicians were not physically weak because they often went to the workshop, they were no match for Director Li and were easily pushed away.

Zhang Yu couldn't persuade Director Li, so he had to agree.

What they didn't see was that behind them, two people's teeth were almost broken.

Wang San looked at the machine, then looked at Zhang Yu who was being escorted away, and a hint of blood flashed in his eyes.

Why, why did he have to fix the machine?
Why force him to this dead end?

Since he can't escape, let's all die together.

Wang San's eyes were bloodshot, and out of the corner of his eye he suddenly caught a glimpse of a man with a jealous face beside him.

He frowned, then relaxed his brows, as if he had thought of an idea.

Although he looked down on the other party's actions and thought that the other party was stupid and vicious.

He was able to marry such a father-in-law, but he couldn't even get a formal job and was sent to the workshop to work as a porter. What a waste!
That would be fine, but the key is that he has no vision at all.

When he saw his father-in-law was in trouble, he not only changed his face immediately, but also added insult to injury.

Humph, he doesn't even look at who the other person is. Does he think he can be the director for so many years safely just by flattering others?

The other party has fallen now, but you don’t even look at why he fell. It’s because he became cannon fodder between Director Li and Deputy Director Liu.

The other party can't afford to offend Director Li and Deputy Director Liu, but can't they deal with you, a temporary worker?

Yes, the former director is indeed in prison now.

But because of this, the opponent becomes more difficult to deal with.

When he was the director before, he might not be able to push anyone up who he wanted to, but now that he is in prison, whoever he wants to pull down will have to go down and accompany him.

Didn’t you see that although those people suppressed his sons, no one dared to kill them?

The man is also a fool, but it is this kind of fool who actually had opportunities that he could not even dream of. God is really unfair!
If it were him, he would never ignore the woman at this juncture, let alone add insult to injury.

This is a rare opportunity to show off. If it were him, he would definitely treat the woman better, be more filial to his future mother-in-law, and establish a good reputation...

Wang San closed his eyes tightly, idiot!
He would feel like he would be at a great loss if he didn't make good use of this idiot.

No one knows what Wang San is planning, but from the other party's calculating eyes, one can tell that he will definitely stir up trouble again.

Zhang Yu, who was surrounded by people and brought to the cafeteria, had no idea about this scene.

Although the factory is not as large as the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill in Beijing, which employs tens of thousands of people, it is still one of the best in the county, providing thousands of jobs for the entire county and nearby communes.

However, for such a large factory, there are only two canteens, one large and one small. As a result, the canteen is crowded with people at mealtimes, even more lively than a market.

No, or rather, there is only one dining hall. As for the other smaller one, it is only used when entertaining guests.

There was no such small canteen originally, but every time we entertained guests, we had to squeeze in with a large group of people, which did not look very good from the outside.

So many times we have to ask people to go to state-owned restaurants to order food in advance, but this creates another problem.

Not to mention whether you can always order food that suits your taste in state-owned restaurants, the impact alone is not good.

Later, the old factory director could not stand the complaints of his deputy factory directors, so he had two rooms next to the canteen, which were originally used to store sundries, cleaned up. One was used as a small kitchen, and the other was partitioned off to make two small private rooms.

Through recommendation, we found a skilled chef to be in charge of the small kitchen.

When there are guests, the small kitchen is responsible for entertaining them.

It's not a loss when there are no customers. The food in Dashichang is just so-so and not very oily. After eating for a long time, you will more or less lose your appetite.

At this time, you can go to the canteen and order a stir-fry to satisfy your craving.

Although it is a bit more expensive than the cafeteria, I don’t eat there every day, so I can afford it occasionally to satisfy my cravings.

There were also young people who would get together in groups of three or four, ordering two dishes each time, and having a delicious meal with corn grits or sweet potato pancakes from the canteen. The total cost was not much different from what they would pay in the canteen.

So after Director Li was transferred here, he did not interfere in the canteen's affairs, and things naturally remained the same.

Since Director Li was treating us, we naturally had to go to the canteen.

Secretary Lin had already given instructions in advance, so the food came as soon as the group arrived.

As for wine, Secretary Lin did not serve it considering Zhang Yu's age.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Director Li smiled with satisfaction.

Finally, he pointed to one of the dishes in a bowl and introduced it: "This is our specialty - pig-killing dish, pork belly and big bones stewed with pickled cabbage."

After that, he said with some regret: "It happened that we didn't buy fresh pig blood in the cafeteria today, otherwise it would be a real pig-killing dish if we add blood sausage.

"Master Zhang, please try it. The pickled cabbage in this pig-killing dish is all pickled by Master Wu himself. It's so delicious!"

"very good already!"

Zhang Yu was not being polite. The dish in front of him smelled really good.

It sounds simple to cook a pig-killing dish, but in fact, if you really want to make it delicious, it mainly depends on your personal skills.

Apart from anything else, this chef's craftsmanship is really good.

It's not like he had never eaten slaughtered pig dishes before, but there were always three or four times out of ten when he felt that the sauerkraut had a strange smell. However, the sauerkraut used in this slaughtered pig dish had no strange smell at all.

Director Li was persuading Zhang Yu to eat the vegetables, while in the kitchen, Master Wu was still cooking on the stove.

Smelling the aroma coming from the stove, several young people in another private room couldn't help but sniff and exclaimed, "It smells so good! Master Wu's cooking skills are amazing!"

"Of course not. The old factory manager took great pains to hire Master Wu. If he didn't have such skills, how could he be so powerful as to dominate the kitchen..."

When the last two dishes came out of the pot, Master Wu called out to his young apprentice who was following him and asked him to clean the pot and stove, and then he carried the dishes to the private room himself.

From a distance, he shouted loudly: "The food is here!"

When the technician sitting at the door heard that the dishes were coming, he quickly stood up, moved the bench to make room, and took the plate from Master Wu with his other hand.
