Chapter 135 [Please customize![-] in [-]! 】

Jiang Hong watched carefully, and Xu Haozheng also seemed to want to give Jiang Hong some advice.

In the process of cooking, he was still explaining to Jiang Hong.

"Xiao Jiang, I heard from your grandfather that you also know some cooking skills. Is it the cooking skills that you have learned from cooking at home?"

Jiang Hong nodded.

"Yeah, I haven't learned to cook seriously either, that is, when my parents were busy with work, I would make some meals for my sister and me."

"Over time, as time goes by, I will do a little bit. But it's all done by myself, and I don't pay so much attention to the heat, materials and so on."

Xu Haozheng nodded with a smile.

"It's fine, it's fine like this, as long as you can eat the cooking skills you've learned by yourself."

"However, Xiao Jiang, do you want to learn how to cook? You are already at this age, and you must not be able to practice boy skills, but you can still practice cooking. I can teach you some of my best dishes. .”

These few words sounded like a master who suddenly met a master on the side of the road and suddenly said to you, "Young man, I see your bones are amazing, do you want to follow me to learn peerless martial arts?"

Anyway...it was quite sudden.

Jiang Hong felt a little strange at first. If someone like Xu Haozheng really wanted to take in apprentices, he would probably be able to take in a lot of them just by opening his mouth.

Why did he suddenly become interested, want to take him in, and pass on his cooking skills.

But after thinking about it, there is nothing difficult to understand, after all, they are already a family now.

Xu Haozheng has two daughters and no son.

According to the tradition of the old Xu family, women do not cook, so Xu Haozheng basically has no inheritors of these skills.

Liu Guixiang never cooks, but just helps.

Therefore, Xu Haozheng did not have a suitable successor.

Although there is an apprentice, after all, this apprentice is an outsider, not a member of their family.

There is a closeness in everything.

Not to mention.

Even if it's not for the inheritance of cooking skills, but just for his daughter to eat easy-to-eat dishes, he still wants to pass on some cooking skills to Jiang Hong.

Just as he was thinking of this, he heard Xu Haozheng talking while shaking his spoon.

"Wanwan, this girl, grew up with me. In the early years, I traveled all over the world. Wherever I went, Guixiang and Wanwan followed me. Speaking of it... I feel really guilty."

"Xiao Jiang, you may not know why I told you this..."

On the kitchen side, because they were cooking and the range hood was turned on, the sound was very loud, and they couldn't hear what they were talking about from the living room.

but.

Xu Haozheng subconsciously glanced towards the living room, as if he didn't want people to hear what he was going to say next.

"Xiao Jiang, even though I am an elder, you are a junior. Maybe I shouldn't tell you these things, but after all, you are an adult, and I can't really treat you as a child."

"I've always felt that many of the emotions of adults are actually interlinked. In the final analysis...that's what I just told you, so...in my heart, I've always felt quite guilty for the two of them. Over the years, I have owed too much."

Jiang Hong didn't speak, but just kept silent and listened.

But just standing here gave Xu Haozheng some courage to continue talking.

Over the years, Xu Haozheng has kept these words in his stomach, and he has never said them to anyone.

Because, I don't know who to tell, and I don't know how to say it...

Now, when Weng's son-in-law met, he felt that this son-in-law was very reliable.

would be a good listener.

So he didn't know what was wrong... He trusted Jiang Hong very much, and wanted to say all these things buried in his heart.

He took a deep breath of cold air, as if he was suppressing something in his throat.

Trembling slightly.

He grabbed the handle of the iron pot and poured out the vegetables.

In fact, it was also to turn his back on Jiang Hong, to prevent Jiang Hong from seeing the suppressed and uncontrollable expression on his face.

Jiang Hong put the dishes on the smart warming table next to him, and then helped Xu Haozheng clean the pot.

Xu Haozheng continued to pick up the second pot and started cooking.

His emotions seemed to have eased up a bit, and he continued.

"How should I put it, I've been busy running around all the time, for the goal of the state banquet in my heart... I often ignore the mood of their mothers..."

"Even, for a long time, I felt guilty. I felt that Jingjing followed her around and ran around, so..."

"When Jing Jing was in the hospital... I really wanted to be by her side, I really wanted to, but due to various reasons, I didn't see her a few times."

"I don't know if you have ever encountered such a situation, that is, when you feel overwhelmed, there are more bad things around you."

"At that time, it was like this at home... Many things suddenly popped up without warning. The most important thing, and the one that affected me the most, was... something happened in the store."

"Someone must compete with me in cooking, and maliciously spread rumors, saying that the ancestors of the Xu family were not the imperial cooks, and that the Xu family's dishes were not passed down from the ancestors, saying that our Xu family is trying to gain fame. And this matter has already caused a lot of trouble in the public media. The degree of knowledge has attracted great controversy, and the outside world has made a lot of noise, and there are many people who are popular."

"What kind of situation is it? I can't tell you clearly in a few words, and if I really tell you, I think you will feel bad."

"In short, a simple summary is that the future of the Xu family is facing an unprecedented crisis. If I don't participate in this cooking competition, the reputation of Xu family's cuisine will be completely rotten. It's a trivial matter to lose the reputation of the restaurant... But, I'm sorry This inheritance of my Xu family ancestors for hundreds of years."

"And at that time, Jing Jing was sent to the imperial capital for medical treatment. There were only two paths before me, whether to accompany Jing Jing through the last part of her life, or to go back to Shanghai to participate in this competition kitchen."

Jiang Hong's breathing was slightly stagnant, and the hand that washed the pot trembled.

But he quickly recovered and continued to brush the pot with his head down.

Xu Haozheng shook his head slightly as if he caught a glimpse of his movements from the corner of his eye.

"I know, what you must be thinking is that I chose the latter... didn't I choose the former?"

Jiang Hong didn't speak, and didn't look back.

Xu Haozheng shook his head.

"Actually, I chose the former, and I chose to stay by Jing Jing's side."

"I've always been a more impulsive person. Rationally speaking, it must be more important to protect the family's century-old culinary heritage, because along the way and on this genealogy, the names of ancestors are written one after another."

"But I just feel that what the fuck does Lao Shizi's century-old heritage have to do with me? Jing Jing is my daughter, and this is the most direct relationship with me."

Jiang Hong was slightly moved.

He really guessed just now that Xu Haozheng chose the latter.

Because he had checked the information about Xu Haozheng before.

The main reason why Xu Haozheng officially entered the list of the top ten famous chefs is because Xu Haozheng is now talking about the "Magic City is better than a chef" nine years ago.

The other party was a very famous chef at the time, and he was very popular in Shanghai.

The income of the store where he is located is more than [-]% lower than that of the Xu family.

The reason why he jumped out to confuse Xu Jiacai was because those few years were the period when Xu Haozheng's culinary skills improved by leaps and bounds.

During that period of time, Xu Haozheng really mixed the strengths of a hundred schools of thought and bred the heyday of his own culinary skills.

Almost every day, the dishes made are different, and they are getting stronger every day.

The chef knew that with Xu Haozheng's talent in cooking, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed him, and it was unknown which restaurant would be more popular by then.

He couldn't let a competitor slowly be born before his eyes.

That's why they made such a move, forcing Xu Haozheng to participate.

That game is better than cooking.

Both sides made a table of ten dishes each.

In the end, Xu Haozheng won the victory with a total score of 385 points higher than that of the opponent.

As for why Xu Haozheng, who is not as good at cooking, can come up with such a crushing score... surpassing the chef of the other party, completely destroying the other party's reputation.

There is no special introduction on the Internet.

Jiang Hong just saw the news and wrote such a conclusion: "'Chef Lu's dishes incorporate the advantages of Western food, while Chef Xu's dishes are all good at Chinese food'."

Chef Lu is the chef who picks things up.

From this sentence, Jiang Hong roughly guessed that Chef Lu pursued the combination of Chinese and Western dishes in the competition among chefs, and even favored Western style.

And Xu Haozheng fully developed the advantages of Chinese food to the fullest.

Perhaps because of this little influence, the final victory was determined.

On the domestic site, I want to have nondescript Chinese and Western dishes, surpassing pure Chinese food.

Are you kidding me?
Chef Lu was clever but was mistaken by his cleverness.

Xu Haozheng's "he is completely good at Chinese food" alone is enough to attract the favor of many judges.

Therefore, since then, the name of Xu Jiacai has once again resounded everywhere.

attracted a lot of attention.

Xu Haozheng's culinary skills are getting better and better.

After knowing the result, Jiang Hong deduced it, thinking that Xu Haozheng really chose the latter...and made a sacrifice in order to inherit his culinary skills.

Unexpectedly, the result was different from what he thought.

Being able to make such a decision... Xu Haozheng is indeed a man of true temperament.

At least, it's real.

Jiang Hong's heart was slightly moved.

He is actually a little curious now, what happened afterwards?
Why, Xu Haozheng still went to compare?
Xu Haozheng took a deep breath and slowly talked about the past.

"At that time, I didn't know whether my choice was right or not. I only knew that I could learn cooking skills and gain fame again, but there is only one quietly."

"At that time..."

……

That day.

Xu Haozheng put a brand new set of knives on the dirt floor.

With a "plop", he knelt down in front of Xu Jianguo.

Xu Jianguo was lying on the recliner, his eyes were slightly closed, and he was holding a cattail fan in his hand, covering his chest.

I don't know if I saw him or not, as if he was asleep.

Xu Haozheng's voice was a little hoarse, but his angular face looked very firm.

"Dad, I'm not going to this cooking competition. I'm sure I've lost all face of Xu's food. After today, our store in Shanghai may not be able to continue..."

"I'm sorry to the ancestors of the Xu family, and I'm sorry for your careful training over the years! But I really can't do it, let me just compete in the kitchen like this, I really... can't do it!"

When Xu Jianguo heard his words, he seemed to wake up from a dream. He picked up the cattail fan in his hand and fanned it lightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Third, you can make this decision, Dad is proud of you, very proud."

"pride?"

Xu Haozheng's eyes turned red for no reason.

"Why are you proud? I... I made a wrong choice. I abandoned the Xu family's century-old inheritance, and I abandoned what I insisted on before. However, since ancient times, this kind of thing has been a dilemma, and there is no third way!"

Xu Jianguo suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of slightly cloudy pupils stared straight at him.

"What were you holding on to?"

"Stick to cooking skills, I want to cook a table of state banquets, I want to be the number one chef in Huaguo, I want to have the pinnacle achievement in the chef world like you."

"Is this your persistence?" Xu Jianguo sat up straight slowly.

"So have you changed now?"

"It's changed... because after that, Xu Jiacai's reputation plummeted, and mine..."

"Enough." Xu Jianguo said sharply suddenly. "Xu Haozheng, since you said this, you have already forgotten what Xu's food is!"

"Xu... Xu family food? I haven't forgotten!"

"Then tell me, what is the core purpose of Xu Jiacai?"

"Yes...introduce the old and bring forth the new." Xu Haozheng responded for a while, and really thought about the question Xu Jianguo asked seriously.

He has learned cooking from Xu Jianguo since he was a child, so it is impossible for him not to know about this.

When Xu Jianguo asked this question, he was indeed a little confused.

I almost thought I heard it wrong.

"Now that you know, what are you still struggling with?"

"What I'm struggling with is our Xu family..."

"The Xu family, hehehe, the Xu family." Xu Jianguo suddenly laughed. "The so-called brilliance you mentioned, the so-called rise and fall of honor and disgrace belong to the predecessors, not the present! Do you understand? Third child!"

"..." Xu Haozheng thought that Xu Jianguo was comforting him because of him, so he made it easy on purpose...

So he let out a long sigh and frowned tightly.

"Dad, I know how much the word Xu Jiacai means in your heart."

A sense of disappointment suddenly appeared in Xu Jianguo's eyes, an unprecedented disappointment.

He waved his hand, signaling Xu Haozheng not to speak any further.

"Oh, third child, many years ago, I thought that I would be mediocre all my life, because your eldest brother and second brother are not suitable for inheriting Xu family cuisine. It wasn't until I cultivated you that I felt that my life was considered a It was not in vain, and finally someone was able to take over this burden."

"But now, I suddenly discovered that you have lived like a dog for more than 40 years. What exactly did you learn? Xu family cuisine, is this Xu family cuisine? It is this kind of food that you need to work hard to protect Xu’s food?”

"I'm fucking teaching you for nothing!"

"Dad! I'm not clear-headed now, so stop playing charades with me. What are you talking about?"

Xu Haozheng was beaten with a stick by Xu Jianguo's jujube.

One second, Mingming pulled him and said earnestly, "Dad is proud of you", and the next second it turned into "I'll teach you for nothing"!
"Why don't you understand? Bringing forth the new through the old? What exactly is bringing forth the new through the old? Do you really think that the ancestors of our Xu family, and me, have reached the pinnacle of the chef world because of the reputation behind the three words Xu Family Cuisine?" ?”

"If you can't even figure this out, in the future, don't call me your father! Cut off the relationship as soon as possible!"

As if struck by lightning, Xu Haozheng tried his best to understand Xu Jianguo's words.

Then, as if suddenly awakened, his eyes widened suddenly.

"Dad, do you want to tell me that without Xu Jiacai's century-long reputation behind it, I can still make my own state banquet, and I can also be the top chef?"

Xu Jianguo smiled, this time it was a gentle smile, a gratifying smile.

"Let me tell you this, none of the ancestors of my Xu family was recognized by standing on the name of their predecessors. We are learning experience by stepping on the shoulders of our predecessors, not on the name of our predecessors. Every Everyone is the only Xu family dish! This is what we should be most proud of as the Xu family."

"I found out that the three words Xu Jiacai are placed on your head. What they bring you is not glory, but a kind of shackle, a kind of restriction. It restricts your development. If so, you still What are you keeping it for?"

"The person surnamed Lu is actually right. The inheritance of my Xu family cuisine has long been broken. We are not imperial chefs at all, we are just ourselves."

"Third brother, you can abandon these external reputations that don't belong to you, and that's when you really experience transformation and grow into a chef. That's why I said, I'm very proud."

"You have to remember that you are not a chef just because you have the three characters of Xu Family Cuisine. On the contrary, it is because you are a chef and your surname is Xu that Xu Family Cuisine exists in this world!"

……

Xu Haozheng's memory slowly gathered.

"I never thought that your grandfather would say such a thing to me. But after that, I suddenly realized that I am me. Without this century-old inheritance, I am still me."

"The recipes I make will definitely be completely different from those of my ancestors, and will surpass those of my ancestors. So, I just stay by Jing Jing's side like this."

The expression on Jiang Hong's face was moved.

He seemed to think of the kind and kind old man who taught Xu Haozheng sternly.

It was hard to calm down for a long time.

"Later... Jing Jing didn't know where I heard that I gave up the reference. She cried very hard that day, especially hard."

"I remember, you are Jing Jing's classmate. You should know that Jing Jing has always been smiling since she found out that she was ill, and she has never cried, not even once."

"Only that day, I cried very, very hard."

"I went to the competition, but I didn't enter the competition for the so-called inheritance of Xu Jiacai's reputation, but for my Jingjing, and for my Jingjing to see me win."

"But... Despite this, I still couldn't accompany Jing Jing to the end. So after Jing Jing left, I felt even more guilty towards Wan Wan. I feel that I owe her too much over the years."

"Maybe she doesn't blame me, but I should take care of her more, so I took their mother and daughter to settle in Shanghai, just to give them more company."

The story has come to this point, Jiang Hong no longer knows what mood he is in.

My heart is really constantly ups and downs, being touched by all kinds of indescribable emotions, constantly washing away.

However, Jiang Hong also knew that the story was not over yet.

Xu Haozheng said such a lot, and he meant to express his heart, but more will definitely be attributed to him and Xu Wan.

"Xiao Jiang, you also know that as a parent, it is impossible for a parent to stay with their children for a lifetime. This is impossible."

"Wanwan grows up day by day, and I know that I can't keep Wanwan. On the eve of Wanwan's graduation, I guessed that Wanwan would go out to start a business, and would choose to run out alone, just like her aunt. "

"So, I had a big fight with her, and I told her, don't come back without someone. Actually... I just hope that when she is out alone, she doesn't have to think about me and his mother."

Jiang Hong: ...

It turned out to be so.

Those intentionally disguised father-daughter conflicts, quarrels, and cold wars hidden behind them are actually a burning father's love.

Man is so hard.

It's really, really great...

"As for whether she can bring back someone she likes, I don't know. If she does, that's a good thing, because she has really found a man who she can entrust her whole life to."

"Finally, there is someone who can accompany her and take care of her by her side for a long time."

"Xiaojiang, I've been talking for a long time, but I just want to tell you that in the days when I can't accompany Wanwan to continue to grow up, when I can't take care of her like I did when I was a child learning how to talk and walk with her... I can have you to accompany her well, to take good care of her."

"please!"

Jiang Hong was silent.

Head hard.

He's a little confused right now.

What Xu Haozheng said just now brought him too many touches and too many indescribably complicated emotions.

He needs to relax first.

Suppressing the ups and downs of the surging mood little by little.

He exhaled heavily.

Recover calm.

He didn't expect Xu Haozheng to tell him this.

Said a lot.

Because, in fact, these are already relatively profound things, including those things that were mentioned earlier, including those things that happened with Mr. Xu...

For Xu Haozheng, these words are definitely the most unforgettable memory.

Xu Haozheng is an old and arrogant person, it should be impossible to say these words casually to others.

Being able to talk to him meant that Xu Haozheng really recognized him as his son-in-law from the bottom of his heart.

This...is what Jiang Hong didn't understand the most.

The old man didn't approve of him the first time he saw him last time.

It was because I knew his first and last name, and thought of what Xu Jing said to him back then, that I could accept him wholeheartedly.

But... this old man.

He has seen both sides in total.

Why did it come to such a point where she was so heart-to-heart with him?

Logically speaking, these words should at least be said after the wedding.

Is it just because he is already Xu Wan's legal husband...so Xu Haozheng will tell him these things as his father?

Jiang Hong couldn't figure it out.

Because he always felt that the taste in Xu Haozheng's words didn't seem to be Xu Wan's father at all... It seemed like a peer discussion?

It's like the topic of conversation between their brothers.

It seems that he is very close, and he is not regarded as a junior...

what happened?
Jiang Hong remembered for no reason that last night, in order to appease him, Xu Wan gave him a seemingly unreliable suggestion.

"You can treat my dad as a drinking buddy, don't always think about how to take care of him, just think about how to get him drunk."

Then I thought again, when Xu Haozheng was in the storage room just now, he deliberately sent Liu Guixiang's mother and daughter away, and asked himself that sentence...

Jiang Hong seemed to realize something suddenly.

Could it be that last time I did something that my father-in-law approved of and said something that my father-in-law approved of after I got drunk last time?
Moreover, this incident made Xu Wan feel very ashamed, ashamed, ashamed to speak?
What the hell is this?

Jiang Hong was really confused and anxious.

You won't really do something particularly embarrassing, right?
In his mind, for no reason, he remembered a joke that Guo Yu and his wife said.

The content of the paragraph is roughly:

It was the first time that old man Yu met his son-in-law, and after having a drink with him, old man Yu was very dissatisfied with this son-in-law, so he said.

"This son-in-law's character is not good, and his wine quality is even worse! So he can't be my son-in-law. After drinking, he actually said that he would find me a dick!"

"I hate this person who doesn't count!"

Jiang Hong's scalp was numb...

Fuck, this paragraph won't become a reality, will it?

I won't say after drinking that I want to find a xj for my father-in-law, right?So my father-in-law recognizes me so much?
Also asked if what I said last time counted?

Gudong.

He subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Looking at Xu Haozheng's expression, something was not quite right.

Xu Haozheng was speaking in a gentle voice.

Suddenly, he noticed that Jiang Hong's expression on the side looked a little strange, and the way he looked at him... was indescribably strange.

Old Xu:?
"Xiao Jiang, you, what are you thinking? Did you hear what I said?"

Jiang Hong shook his head first, but then nodded.

There were some panicked expressions on his face, as well as some doubts...and surprise.

"Ahem, that... Uncle, I know everything you said, and I promise you that I will use my whole heart and the rest of my life for an unknown number of years to make a promise to you, that I will take good care of you, To accompany Wanwan, I will not let her be wronged in the slightest, and I will do my best to do my best."

Xu Haozheng let out a long sigh of relief.

"I'm relieved if you promise me like this."

Jiang Hong hesitated for a moment, but still asked very seriously.

"I, can I take the liberty to ask, Uncle, what happened to me at the wine table last time...Did I promise you something?"

Xu Haozheng frowned, wondering what was going on in this young man's brain circuit?

Why did you suddenly go astray while talking?

Something's not quite right?
"Actually, it's not too important. You don't have to take it to heart. How did Wanwan tell you later?"

"Wanwan said that he was a little ashamed to speak, and he really thought it was to save me some face... So, she said that she would not tell me until next year's wedding anniversary."

"Still. Since Wanwan said so, of course I can't tell you in advance."

Xu Haozheng smiled, took the last dish out of the pan, and poured it into the dinner plate.

Jiang Hong felt very strange.

Every time Xu Haozheng poured the dishes into the plate, it didn't seem to have been specially manipulated, but it just looked particularly good-looking.

Even the soup poured on the plate seems to be able to listen to Xu Haozheng's words, and it will flow wherever it says.

It is uneven and has a sense of hierarchy.

God, really God!

Can you see the layering from a dish?See beauty?
Plus a little simple vegetable leaf embellishment...

Comparing the style of painting with the dishes he cooks, it seems that one is noodles that cost five yuan at a roadside stall, and the other is a top-notch delicacy that costs three or four hundred in a big restaurant.

Obviously they all poured out of the pot!
Obviously the raw materials are not much different.

What is the problem?
This is the real color and fragrance!

the other side.

Xu Wan and Liu Guixiang are playing a game of "you smell it, I guess it".

Although there is no need for this game, because the materials themselves were prepared by the two of them...

But it seems to be their great pleasure to tell what kind of dish they are cooking by smelling the fragrance of the dishes floating over from a distance.

After guessing all the dishes correctly, they stood up and took away the dishes placed on the smart warming table one by one.

Jiang Hong took out a bottle of good wine.

This was given to him by Xu He in the storage room yesterday. According to Xu He:
"It was knocked from my old man. It's definitely good wine! I took two bottles, and I kept one bottle for drinking, and this bottle will be given to you! After all, this is also your credit!"

Jiang Hong thought that he was going to meet his in-laws soon, so he would inevitably have to drink, so he was disrespectful.

Xu Haozheng just glanced at it, then waved his hand.

"Your wine is quite good. Keep it for tomorrow when your father comes. The three of us will drink it again. It's not appropriate to open it now. Xiao Jiang, you don't have to always think about taking care of me."

"We bought two bottles of aged Erguotou on the way. The strength is not too high. Let's drink this today. Drink less. That's what it means."

"Eat the vegetables first, eat the vegetables!"

This is how a dinner started.

It's still the same as last time at Mr. Xu's place, eat the food first, then drink.

Only in this way can we ensure that the body will not be injured.

After the conversation with the old man just now, Jiang Hong seemed to have suddenly found a better way to get along with the old man.

Not as stiff as it seemed at first.

You can raise your head and have a friendly conversation with your father-in-law and mother-in-law.

A meal is almost over in no time.

Liu Guixiang's appetite is not large, and Xu Wan's appetite is "not large".

So the two left the table after eating early, leaving the table to two men, Xu Haozheng and Jiang Hong.

After packing up their things, the mother and daughter suddenly put on their coats, changed their shoes and left the house.

Don't know where to go.

Just as Jiang Hong poured wine for Xu Haozheng, he saw this scene and asked a little strangely.

"Uncle, aunt and Wanwan... what are they doing?"

Xu Haozheng explained with a smile.

"Don't worry, they went out to buy seasonings. Tomorrow our two families will get together, so we won't go out to eat. I'll cook a table of good food."

"Of course, there are no complicated dishes. Xiaojiang, let's also agree that the two of us will have a casual meal of wine tonight, and tomorrow will be the real day."

"Drinking for two days in a row, you young people can bear it, but I can't bear it with old arms and legs, hehehe. And, in a while, I have to prepare two dishes in advance. The elbow needs to be stewed overnight. OK."

Only then did Jiang Hong nod his head.

So you went out to buy seasonings?

There are only a few kinds of seasonings at home, although Jiang Hong bought a lot more when making the soup last time.

But I didn't buy much of each, and I guess it wasn't enough.

In terms of eating, no one knows better than Xu Haozheng, so Xu Haozheng does whatever he says, and he doesn't refute it.

Having said that, Xu Haozheng pointed to the pot made on Jiang Hong's stove.

"I took a look, you boiled the broth pretty well. It seems that your grandfather taught you a lot of good things before, and you really learned it seriously."

"The heat is managed by a smart stove. The ratio of ingredients and the time to put it in are similar. It is almost a finished product. I can use it for cooking tomorrow."

"Aside from the reason why the smart stove controls the heat, you are quite talented, Xiao Jiang."

Jiang Hong smiled, picked up the cup and respected Xu Haozheng.

Take a sip of wine.

"Just... make it whatever you want, mainly because the 'notes' given to me by grandpa are quite detailed, so I can do almost the same, as long as you think it can be used!"

The two were talking while drinking and eating.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Xu Haozheng's capacity for drinking is particularly good, and he is only slightly tipsy now, and Jiang Hong is also a little tipsy.

The two had already agreed before, and today is the end of the order, so they didn't drink any more.

Seeing that the timing was almost up, Xu Haozheng took out a notebook from nowhere and handed it to Jiang Hong.

"Xiao Jiang, take a look, this might be of some use to you. This can be considered a little wedding gift from Uncle... for you and Wanwan."

Jiang Hong froze for a moment, then took the notebook with both hands.

After opening it for a glance, he was suddenly stunned, then immediately stood up, closed the notebook, and handed it back to Xu Haozheng.

"Uncle, this, this is not suitable, this gift is too expensive... You have obtained these recipes, all of which are all your life's painstaking efforts, I just take them here, it is a bit too shameless!"

Xu Haozheng waved his hand with a look of indifference.

"Xiao Jiang, don't be so excited, sit down, sit first, don't be so excited!"

"Do you still remember the story I just told you about me and your grandfather? If you still remember, you should know that these recipes are not my ability to eat and watch the house. My ability is this. "

Xu Haozheng stretched out a finger and pointed to his nose.

"I am the living Xu family cuisine, the inheritance of this generation of Xu family cuisine. So do you think this recipe is really important to me?"

"Different recipes, in the hands of different people, actually make different dishes. Even if you leak this recipe, I will still be Xu Haozheng, and Xu's dishes will still be Xu's dishes. will not change."

"Besides, you won't spread the word. Since this is the case, then this gift is completely fine. Why are you so excited?"

"What's wrong? What you said just now doesn't count? Can't you give Wanwan company in this life?"

Jiang Hong held the notebook with both hands solemnly, and looked at the old man seriously.

"It counts! Of course it counts. I will definitely give my all to Wanwan. But... Uncle, I really deserve this gift."

Xu Haozheng pulled Jiang Hong, who was standing a bit stiffly, to sit down, and then he spoke earnestly.

"There is nothing to be ashamed of. You are usually at home. What dish do you want to eat, or what dish Wanwan wants to eat? If you don't know how to cook it, just open the menu and have a look."

"If you want something that is not on the recipe, you can call me directly, or call your grandpa directly. Your grandpa should like to receive your call very much."

"It's as simple as that. You can make it when you want to eat it. That's the purpose of the recipe I gave you. Don't think it's so complicated. There's no need for inheritance or life-long painstaking efforts."

"I don't even think about this, what do you think? You, if you really feel ashamed, then you should work hard."

"Work hard?" Jiang Hong was stunned for a moment, and with a little force on his fingers, he gripped the recipe tightly, and said very seriously. "Don't worry, I will work very hard to learn the above knowledge, as long as I have time, I will work hard to practice."

"Hi." Xu Haozheng waved his hand. "Who told you that you worked hard? You said it all. Now that this recipe has been handed over to you, it already belongs to you completely."

"How you use it and how to learn it is all your business. I won't care about it anymore. I said work hard..."

Subconsciously, Xu Haozheng moved closer, put his hand on Jiang Hong's shoulder, and said seriously.

"When I say hard work, I mean children! Children."

"I'm already old, and it's time to hug my grandson. Your uncle and your second uncle, one of your grandsons is in high school, and the other's granddaughter is already in the fourth grade. Even your fourth uncle... is about to hug her. Grandson, I'm the third child, so I can't make too much difference."

"Don't you think so, Xiaojiang? Work hard! Work hard on this aspect, other money, cooking skills, all pushed back, that's not important!"

Although Jiang Hong and Xu Wan's child is his grandson, strictly speaking, he is not as close as his own grandson.

But Xu Haozheng really didn't pay much attention to this.

As long as there is someone from the next generation, he feels very happy.

Jiang Hong's face turned slightly red.

Discussing this topic with men of the same age, he thinks it is quite normal, and he can still drive a car and chat casually.

But talking about this topic with my father-in-law...

The atmosphere is a bit strange.

He really didn't know what to talk about.

"Ahem... I'll do my best, I'll do my best."

Xu Haozheng gave Jiang Hong a serious look.

"Xiao Jiang, you don't have those messy ideas of young people nowadays, do you? What kind of ideas like DINK? Don't you have all of these?"

"No, absolutely not. Cough cough, to tell you the truth, my parents have mentioned to me more than once about children... wanting to hold grandchildren..."

"Hahaha, it seems that we and your parents have the same views as heroes! Don't you think so, Xiao Jiang!"

For a dinner, the "Weng and son-in-law are harmonious" and the host and guest enjoy themselves.

This is definitely the real harmony between Weng and son-in-law, completely different from the harmony between Weng and son-in-law of Xu He's family last time.

After the two finished their meal.

Wash the dishes with the dishwasher, wipe the table, and clean up the house almost.

Especially the kitchen, it was spotless.

As a chef, it is inevitable to deal with oil fume, but keeping the kitchen clean and tidy is a compulsory course for every chef.

Finish the house.

Xu Wan and Liu Guixiang also came back.

The two of them entered the door together with the seasonings, Chinese medicinal materials they just bought, and the fresh goods they just received.

"Jiang Hong, our new freezer has arrived, it's downstairs, go and have a look~"

"Ok!"

Jiang Hong took the key to the storage room and went downstairs, and pushed the newly delivered large freezer into the storage room.

Moved the meat that had been left alone to the freezer one by one, and plugged in some.

Directly occupy two-thirds of the space inside the freezer.

The entire storage room, because Xu Haozheng and his wife came to the door this time, was almost completely occupied. All kinds of sundries, dishes, freezer, pickle jar, and other sundries took up a huge part of the space.

In the future, if I want to come to the storage room to eat barbecue, I probably won't be able to do it.

The barbecue before... is the memory of the past.

open the door.

A strong aroma of meat and special seasonings has filled the entire room.

Preparations for Xu Haozheng's big meal have already begun.

The elbow has been lowered into the pot and stewed.

Now, those newly bought seasonings are being fried in a big iron pan.

Looking at the several big fresh goods boxes in the room, Jiang Hong began to look forward to tomorrow's big meal for no reason...

The last time I went home, I ate a big meal cooked by Mr. Xu with all his strength.

But this time, what Xu Haozheng will eat will be a feast prepared with all his strength.

Just thinking about it, Jiang Hong's mouth is already drooling.

……

night.

Xu Wan and Jiang Hong gave up the master bedroom to their parents, and they slept in the second bedroom separated from the master bedroom by a wall.

Jiang Hong's drinking energy almost faded away.

Lying on the bed, not feeling sleepy.

Most of the mind is thinking about tomorrow.

He originally had Xu Wan in his arms, but at this moment, Xu Wan suddenly broke free from his embrace and sat up.

It gave Jiang Hong a beautiful back view.

Jiang Hong patted Xu Wan's back lightly.

"Wanwan... what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again?"

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Jiang Hong felt that Xu Wan's voice was delicate and soft.

"Nothing~"

Definitely not the soft kind.

If it is the kind of softness full of temptation.

There was a rustling sound...

Jiang Hong was very familiar with this voice, of course he knew what Xu Wan was doing.

"Wanwan, you, what are you doing?"

"eat you!"

"You...don't be joking!"

Jiang Hong subconsciously sat up and hid to the other side of the bed, only feeling that his throat was a bit dry.

With a smile on her face, Xu Wan leaned closer and whispered in his ear.

hot.

It's still itchy.

"What? Just allow you to bully me when you're in the hospital? Play tricks on me? Now it's the other way around, isn't that okay?"

"Well, the situation is different. Now my uncle and aunt are next door on the other side... They, if they hear it, what should they think of me!"

"Hey, I'm shy. What about your behavior like an animal before? Why are they all gone? Are you afraid too? Huh? Jiang Hong."

Jiang Hong shrunk his neck, moved towards the outside again, almost missed the air, and fell to the ground all at once.

Although the bed in the second bedroom is also a double bed, it is not as big as the bed in the master bedroom.

He almost fell off the bed.

Sweat all over his forehead.

"Wanwan, let's... two days, how about two days?"

Xu Wan moved closer again, and put her hands on Jiang Hong's sides.

Squeezed into Jiang Hong's ear and said again.

Who can resist this?

"Don't worry, I know everything. The sound insulation in our community is very good, especially in our house. The sound insulation is very good. They can't hear it..."

Originally, she wasn't such an impulsive person, but she was going to be busy with work soon, so she was really busy.

In the next second, Jiang Hong no longer hesitated.

A went up.

And gently kissed Xu Wan's small cherry mouth.

Jiang Hong and Xu Wan embraced each other and fell asleep.

One night, just like this.
