Chapter 172 Eat, you can eat anything!

That night, Qin Huai did not dream that Gong Liang was so moved that he completed the side mission.

He dreamed that Qin Luo ranked first in the class.

This dream was so weird that Qin Huai doubted whether he was dreaming.

After Luo Luo ranked first in the class, she strongly requested to eat crab roe shaomai. Qin Huai happily gave Qin Luolian the opportunity to do it for a month. As a result, Qin Luo got injured again after eating crab roe shaomai. From then on, he felt like vomiting when he saw shaomai. Qin's breakfast shop never sold shaomai again.

It can only be said that dreams are fantasy.

After Qin Huai woke up from his dream, he even thought for a few seconds about whether he had inherited the inheritance, and whether he was in Qiu County, Shanshi, or Gusu.

Finally, Qin Huai came to a conclusion while brushing his teeth.

He had to take advantage of the last few days before the crabs were sold out and take a 6-day long vacation to go back to Shanshi to make crab roe shaomai for Qin Luo for a few days. Qin Luo was injured after eating steamed hairy crabs. The worst part was that he felt like vomiting when he smelled the aroma of steamed crabs, but that happened when Qin Luo was very young.

Since Qin Luo entered junior high school, the symptom of making him vomit when he smelled crabs has been relieved a lot. He was able to eat spicy crabs when he was in the second grade of junior high school, and he also followed the trend and ate crab roe soup dumplings when he was in the third grade of junior high school.

The crab roe soup dumplings were made too unpalatable or the ingredients were too honest, but Qin Luo vomited them again.

Speaking of which, Qin Luo hasn't eaten crab roe food for a year.

After brushing his teeth, Qin Huai sent a message to Qin Luo.

Qin Huai: Luoluo, I will go back to Shanshi in December. Do you want to eat crab roe shaomai? Brother, I’m new to this. It’s delicious.

Qin Luo replied instantly.

Luoluo: Eat! ! !

Qin Huai raised his eyebrows.

Study on your phone in the morning.

Snacks for two days during winter break! .

After Qin Huai finished washing, he slowly ate two tangerines. Probably because he ate tangerines on an empty stomach in the morning, Qin Huai felt a little sour, so he ate another banana and then went out slowly.

When Qin Huai went downstairs, he met Gong Liang who was returning from running.

Even running at this time is not sure whether it can be counted as a morning run. Qin Huai thinks that anything before breakfast counts.

Thanks to the group of morning joggers in Yunzhong Canteen, although Qin Huai has never run in the morning, he knows a lot about morning jogging.

He looked at Gong Liang's sportswear, sneakers, and the small bag holding a mobile phone and a sweat towel on his waist. The beads of sweat on his forehead were almost invisible to the naked eye. Those that were blocked by the collar of his coat were obviously sweating. neckline.

This is really a morning run.

Qin Huai smiled and said hello: "Mr. Gong, you are back from jogging in the morning."

Gong Liang smiled and nodded: "After running around for a few times, the neighborhood is still the same. It hasn't changed much in decades."

"Your morning jogging habit is really good. You run a few laps every morning, take a shower and change clothes when you come back. It's just right to go to Huang Ji opposite for breakfast." Qin Huai sighed.

"I'm used to it." Gong Liang smiled, "When I graduated from technical secondary school and worked as a salesperson, my old colleagues in the department told me as soon as I entered the department that we have good legs and feet in our line of work. If I encountered a robber on the road, I would throw away the goods. People can save their lives even if they run. I was so scared that I practiced running every day after work and before going to work. I got used to it and I felt uncomfortable every day I didn’t run.”

Qin Huai was stunned when he heard this.

Gong Liang laughed out loud at Qin Huai's expression: "Master Xiao Qin, I'm just teasing you. When I was a salesperson, sales were no longer so dangerous, and I specialized in selling silk all over the country, so I didn't have to go to the countryside to receive goods. . I just like running and exercising. I have eaten too many good things and sat still in the past two years. In the past two years, my physical examination has been very high. If I don't move, I will lose my life. "

Qin Huai then returned to his normal expression, smiled and joked: "I almost asked you if you could outrun the robbers."

Gong Liang laughed twice more and asked, "Master Xiao Qin, when do you think it would be more appropriate for me to go to Huangji for breakfast?"

"In 40 minutes, the crab roe siomai should be out of the cage by then. You were not here yesterday, and yesterday's crab roe siomai tasted normal. Don't worry, you will definitely not taste the same taste as the first two times this morning."

Faced with Qin Huai's repeated assurances, Gong Liang immediately said how could he doubt Master Xiao Qin? Master Xiao Qin's craftsmanship is certainly unparalleled. He just needs to arrive at Huangji on time and wait to eat.

The two separated, and Gong Liang went upstairs humming happily.

If numerical values ​​could be displayed in real life, then Qin Huai and Gong Liang's heads should pop up with a bold font of +10 favorability on time.

Because chatting took some time, by the time Qin Huai arrived at Huangji, Zheng Siyuan had already started kneading the dough.

"Morning." Zheng Siyuan greeted him calmly as always.

Qin Huai went to pick crabs and shrimps. When he came back after picking crabs, he found that Zheng Siyuan was already processing the meat filling.

Or wonton meat filling.

To be honest, Qin Huai sometimes finds Zheng Siyuan quite boring. Huang Ji's red chefs often have stereotypes of white chefs as boring and workaholics, and they can't all blame Huang Ji.

There are not many Bai An chefs they are familiar with, and the one they saw the most before Qin Huai came was Zheng Siyuan.

Qin Huai felt that when Zheng Siyuan was in Yunzhong Canteen, he was not as robot-like as he is now. Maybe it's because there is a lot of work in Yunzhong Canteen, and Qin Huai can do some fancy work from time to time, sometimes making fruit, and sometimes studying fruit, so Zheng Siyuan can't set the program.

Now back in Suzhou, Zheng Siyuan's pastry shop is still being renovated, so he can only stay in Huangji to make pastries, and he has started a life of copying and pasting every day.

I make wontons in the morning, fresh meat mooncakes and Dingsheng cakes in the morning, and occasionally switch to fresh meat mooncakes and shortbread cakes. In the afternoon, I go home and study spooning.

It's the same every day.

He doesn't rest either.

Huang Ji has 4 days of normal leave every month. If he encounters special circumstances, such as an accident at home, the chef himself is sick or injured, he can ask for leave alone.

Normal people need to rest, even Huang Shengli needs to rest, and so does Qin Huai. When Qin Huai was his own boss at Yunzhong Canteen, he would occasionally give himself holidays.

But Zheng Siyuan doesn't rest.

According to Dong Shi, when Zheng Siyuan opened the pastry shop, the pastry shop was open every day, 365 days a year. Even on New Year's Eve, it opens in the morning, sells out at noon, and closes in the afternoon. Rain or shine, few things can stop Zheng Siyuan from opening the door and selling dim sum. His professionalism is touching.

Qin Huai started to handle the crabs and shrimps. While taking out the meat, he asked: "Siyuan, don't you get tired of making the same snacks every day?"

"I just make a smaller variety of dim sum in Huangji, and I usually make many more types in the store." Zheng Siyuan said calmly.

"Then why don't you sell it every day like me?" Qin Huai asked again.

Zheng Siyuan: "...Is it possible that I am not good at as many types of dim sum as you are?"

"I can't learn things as fast as you."

Zheng Siyuan began to mix the stuffing: "Sometimes I am very curious, how come you have so many things you want to learn. From sophora flower steamed buns to crab roe shaomai, you want to learn everything, and you have learned everything, but You haven’t mastered everything yet.”

"Just when I think you might be thinking about it, you pick up what you learned before and practice it."

Qin Huai thought for a while and answered him with the answer that Zheng Siyuan could accept most: "Maybe it's because... I'm eager to learn?"

"I know where my abilities are. When I reach a point where I feel it is difficult to improve at my current level, I will stop practicing until I feel there is room for improvement. I will pick it up."

Qin Huai separated the crab roe and crab meat: "Is this a kind of alternative, I have self-knowledge?" Zheng Siyuan was noncommittal.

"I heard that you learned crab roe shaomai for Uncle Gong." Zheng Siyuan rarely asked about gossip.

"That's right." Qin Huai nodded affirmatively, "It wasn't true at first. I didn't know there was such a snack as crab roe siomai before I came to Suzhou. At first, I was just curious and wanted to learn it."

"It just so happens that Mr. Gong also likes to eat crab roe shaomai. As you know, from childhood to college, I only learned about dim sum because someone liked it, otherwise I would have no motivation."

"Mr. Gong, this is a card for a bone setting shop, some fruit snacks, and he also bought a lot of smart furniture for the house where I live. He also bought a new massage chair two days ago. I did all this just for one bite. It shouldn’t be a big deal if I learn a couple of snacks just for Mr. Gong’s liking.”

"And don't you think the crab roe shaomai is really suitable for me? I have never seen a dim sum that suits me so well and is based on my knowledge."

"Siyuan, are you familiar with Mr. Gong?" Qin Huai asked curiously.

"I was very impressed when I was a child." Zheng Siyuan said calmly, and quietly glanced at the kitchen door to make sure there was no one there before continuing.

"I was very reluctant when I first started learning to cook. At that time, practicing basic skills was hard, tiring, and took up time. In addition, by that time, my father had already gone into business and made his first pot of gold. My family was considered rich, and my sister because She’s not very talented and can’t bear hardships. After practicing basic skills for a few months, my parents didn’t let her learn to cook.”

"My sister is 3 years older than me. At that time, I saw my sister playing at home every day, but I had to hang sandbags and practice basic skills on horseback. I didn't want to learn cooking, so my uncle used to inspire me with what happened to Uncle Gong."

"Incentive?" Qin Huai became interested.

Gong Liang's wealthy and smooth life actually has a plot that can be used to inspire children.

Zheng Siyuan glanced at the kitchen door again, obviously not used to talking about other people's affairs outside.

"When Gong Bo just graduated from technical secondary school and started working, he actually had a very unsatisfactory few years."

"He was the only son in the family. He was admitted to a technical secondary school with excellent grades. After graduation, he was assigned back to the silk weaving factory and entered the sales department."

“The sales department was a good position, but at that time the efficiency of the silk weaving factory was very low, far inferior to that of the surrounding cotton mills. Uncle Gong’s mother had asthma and high blood pressure and needed to take medication all year round, and his father suddenly suffered a stroke and paralyzed half of his body and needed long-term care. "

"At that time, Uncle Gong had just been working for more than a year and had just become a full-time employee. Only Uncle Gong and his father had jobs in their family. His father had a stroke and had to retire early."

"When Uncle Gong started working, his boss introduced him to a partner, and both parties had already reached the point of discussing marriage. After his father had a stroke, the woman felt that the burden on Uncle Gong's family was too heavy and there were no brothers or sisters to help, so they broke up. ”

"Under the double blow, Gong Bo was very depressed during that time."

"Uncle Gong was my master's neighbor. At that time, my father and my master's uncle lived in my master's house. They had a good relationship and often comforted each other."

"There was an exhibition in the coastal area that year. The silk weaving factory originally had a quota the previous year, but the quota was canceled due to poor sales volume. Gong Bo originally expected to get some business travel subsidies by going to the exhibition, but the business trip was canceled. "

"Then what?" Qin Huai had already listened to the story.

Normally, when the story reaches this stage, the male protagonist will start to make a comeback and become a blockbuster.

"It is said that my master advised Uncle Gong to strive for opportunities as much as possible, saying that opportunities are earned by people. If the silk weaving factory failed one year ago, it does not mean it will not work in the future."

"Then Gong Bo went to fight for the opportunity, worked with their section chief and deputy factory director to persuade the superiors to get a quota to participate in the exhibition, and was assigned a position that was said to be very corner."

Qin Huai said that he had seen this plot before, and Qin Luo liked to read basically all the plots of this kind.

"Then...Mr. Gong helped the silk weaving factory receive a large order. From then on, he became a blockbuster. He was promoted and raised salary, and became the head of the sales department?" Qin Huai began to guess the plot behind it.

"Absolutely." Zheng Siyuan nodded, "Uncle Gong not only received a large order, but also received a foreign exchange order. He became a well-deserved gold medal salesman in the silk weaving factory. The factory specially granted him a large bonus. He received With that bonus, I went to a state-owned restaurant and ate crab roe shaomai for a month.”

Qin Huai:…6

It's all connected, it's all connected, it turns out this is a series.

It turns out that in real life, the inspirational male protagonist of period novels, after receiving the first bonus earned through his own talents, what he did was eat crab roe shaomai for a month.

Qin Huai first marveled at the series, then tasted it, and suddenly felt something was wrong, and asked: "I admit that this story is very inspirational, but can it be used to encourage children who have just learned to cook and can't bear the hardships of learning to cook? "

Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to be professional?

If you use this kind of story to inspire children, can the children understand it?

Is this plot a bit too complicated for children?

"The point of this story my uncle told me is that as long as you work hard when you encounter difficulties, you can eat crab roe shaomai for a month." Zheng Siyuan said with an expressionless face.

Qin Huai:…

I didn’t expect that Master Huang, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also deceive children back then.

"Then did you eat it?" Qin Huai asked.

Qin Huai saw a hint of numbness in Zheng Siyuan's expressionless expression.

"No." Zheng Siyuan said, "At that time, my dad was busy with business and had no time to make snacks for me. After five days of cooking, he didn't want to do it anymore."

"My dad told me to study hard and make it for myself when I grow up. I can eat it as long as I want."

"When my cooking skills were good enough to learn crab roe siomai, I found that I didn't like this kind of dim sum at all, so I didn't learn much."

Qin Huai didn't know what to say. He wanted to pat Zheng Siyuan's shoulder comfortingly, but now his hands were full of the smell of shrimp and crab and it was difficult to reach out. He could only pat Zheng Siyuan's shoulder mentally.

"It's good to get used to it. Adults all like to draw cakes." Qin Huai comforted, "Luoluo has been eating my cakes since she was a child."

"If your dad won't make it for you, I will make it for you. It's just crab roe siomai for a month. It doesn't matter if you're not here in the afternoon. From today on, I will make crab roe siomai every morning. Let's eat it for a month!"

"You eat first every day!"

Zheng Siyuan:…

He understood Qin Huai's kindness, but he always felt that Qin Huai was taking advantage of him.

The most important thing is that he doesn't like crab roe siomai.

Zheng Siyuan glanced at the crab man Qin Huai and the shrimps and crabs he had peeled.

He wants to eat chicken noodle soup.

Two days ago, Qinhuai had a sudden idea to contract chicken noodle soup for employees' meals at noon.

The chicken noodle soup that day was really delicious, much better at lunch than in the morning.

Zheng Siyuan has not eaten such delicious hand-made noodles for a long time.

Zheng Siyuan pursed his lips, said nothing, and continued mixing the stuffing.

Does he also have to buy something for the house where Qin Huai lives?

Zheng Siyuan thought.

But what to buy? The house in Qinhuai was not big to begin with, but it had been filled up by Gong Liang during this period.

It's true for his dad that if he rents such a small house, he won't have this trouble if he rents a big three-bedroom house.
