Food starts with noodles

People other than chefs are not allowed to enter the back kitchen of a normal restaurant, but now it is a new restaurant, and Li Hao is deliberately advertising for Xu Zhuo, so it is natural to show off the clean and bright back kitchen.

Walking to the door of the kitchen, Jianguo just happened to come out with two bowls of soup.

Li Hao greeted him: "Mr. Charles, what kind of soup is this?"

Since Jianguo spoke his English name, everyone greeted him as Mr. Charles, and Jianguo was used to it.

"A rice wine glutinous rice ball, a seaweed egg flower, while my master is here, I want him to point out the shortcomings."

After speaking, Jianguo walked towards Xu Wenhai's table with his hand in his hand.

The water friends in the live broadcast room were a little confused.

"Brother Big Stomach, what kind of stalk is this? Why do you call him Mr. Charles?"

After Li Hao saw the bullet screen, he walked to the counter with a smile, and pointed at them with Jianguo's business card: "Our head chef gave himself a name, so it probably looks foreign."

When everyone saw the name Charles Jianguo clearly, the entire live broadcast room suddenly boiled.

"His name is Charles Jianguo, so foreign? I, Chris Gousheng, don't accept it!"

"I, Elizabeth Cuihua, don't accept it either, because my name is more foreign."

"Go, go, a bunch of bumpkins, I'm Franklin Tieniu, here to ask for advice!"

The water friends in the live broadcast room resumed their true colors of sand sculptures, constantly showing off all kinds of weird names of sand sculptures, and the whole live broadcast room became a sea of ​​joy.

When Xu Zhuo's stall was closed, Li Hao was still enjoying this kind of sand sculpture plot with his water friends.

"Li Hao, you drive them to Lin Ping Hotel. I have already booked a room, and they can check in after registration."

Xu Zhuo handed over the car keys to Li Hao, and sent a few classmates who were obviously drunk to get in the car.

After Li Hao drove away, Xu Zhuo went to the bathroom, washed his face with cold water to calm his mind, and then entered the system, carefully checking the reward he just got.

After confirming that it was not a hallucination, Xu Zhuo took the mobile phone and began to check where the blessing was given to him.

Seeing station B from the group, until Meng Liwei's live broadcast room, Xu Zhuo saw the whole story.

I really didn't expect that Li Hao's bastard played the wrong way, and helped him run a wave of advertisements when the live broadcast room was the most hated, and then everyone sent their blessings one after another, and Xu Zhuo got an unexpected reward.

"Handsome boss, what are you doing? Are you drunk?"

Yu Keke came over and saw Xu Zhuo looking through the comments in the live broadcast room, a little curious.

Xu Zhuo put down the phone, raised his hand and scratched Ke Ke's nose: "I'm fine, I have to be busy later, you can chat with my mother and godmother first."

After speaking, Xu Zhuo came to the kitchen and prepared to fry the tamales.

Cao Kun was inspecting the pig's trotters and stewed pork that he made today. When he saw Xu Zhuo coming in, he asked curiously, "Didn't you sing with your classmates? Why are you back?"

Xu Zhuo smiled: "I haven't made the steamed meat powder for tomorrow, I have to hurry up and make it."

After speaking, he walked to the utility room and began to prepare the ingredients for making tamales.

There are a lot of things to do tonight. After making the steamed meat powder, I have to soak the ingredients of the eight-treasure stuffed pear, so as not to be too late tomorrow.

While he was busy in the kitchen, Chen Guifang walked in suddenly: "Son, don't go back to sleep tonight, I'll live at home with your father and your grandfather."

Xu Zhuo was taken aback: "What about me?"

Chen Guifang glared at him resentfully: "You find a way by yourself, don't rely on your parents to teach you everything."

After finishing speaking, Chen Guifang stopped talking nonsense, turned around and left, leaving behind Xu Zhuo with a surprised face.

what's the situation?

Why do you say such things suddenly?

He just started frying rice right now, so he didn't have time to think about it, so he planned to ask what was going on after he finished his work.

The people in the store came home from get off work one after another.

When Xu Zhuo was making the steamed meat powder, Jianguo, who had been with the kitchen all the time, also planned to leave: "Xu Zhuo, I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll go back first, and go back to sleep as soon as you're done."

Xu Zhuo nodded, but the house was occupied, so he didn't know where to sleep tonight.

Pour the prepared steamed meat powder into a tray and spread it out. After it is completely cooled, it can be bagged and placed in the cold storage. Otherwise, if it is bagged now, the residual temperature in the steamed meat powder will easily roast the bag.

After finishing these tasks, Xu Zhuo began to prepare the ingredients for making eight-treasure stuffed pears tomorrow. The glutinous rice in it had to be soaked overnight, so it had to be soaked now.

After soaking the glutinous rice, Xu Zhuo checked the kitchen to make sure everything was ready, then turned off the lights and stove in the kitchen, came to the front desk, and took his mobile phone to ask Meng Liwei if they were asleep.

As soon as he turned on his phone, Xu Zhuo suddenly saw a post from Yu Keke: I'm so nervous...

Sun Panpan and Chen Guifang actually gave her a thumbs up.

Xu Zhuo was taken aback by the nonsensical words, my restaurant is about to open, are you nervous?

What's up with everyone today?Chen Guifang yelled at herself inexplicably, and now that Yu Keke is making such nonsensical remarks again, it's really hard to understand a woman's mind.

Xu Zhuo sighed, and was just about to call Meng Liwei to ask what they were doing, when suddenly there was the sound of a car outside, and then the store door was pushed open, and Zhao Guangming walked in.

"I heard that this place will open tomorrow. As a friend, I came here to wish you a happy opening."

His appearance surprised Xu Zhuo: "It will open tomorrow, why are you here now?"

Zhao Guangming didn't answer, but took out a big red envelope from his bag and put it on the counter: "I don't know what gift to buy, so I just wrapped it up for you, I wish you a prosperous business, always Hair hair hair."

Originally, Xu Zhuo wanted to say when we became friends, but after hearing this, Boss Xu immediately made up his mind.

Zhao Guangming is a friend, I, Xu Zhuo, make it up!

Chapter 278 Where Should I Live?

Xu Zhuo made a pot of tea, poured a cup for Zhao Guangming, and asked, "Why don't you come over tomorrow?"

Zhao Guangming picked up the cup and smelled it, and exclaimed: "Good tea, this tea is really good."

After finishing speaking, he took a sip before putting down his teacup: "My grandpa is coming tomorrow, and I don't want him to see me. The other ordinary people have nothing to talk to, and only you can make me not so lonely ..."

Boss Xu didn't know how to answer these words.

The two looked at each other silently, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

It's already 10:30, and Xu Zhuo is a little hungry now.He looked at Zhao Guangming and asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? I'm a little hungry right now..."

Zhao Guangming didn't object: "Okay, I happen to catch a plane early in the morning, and there's nothing to eat at the airport, so I'll just eat something here."

Xu Zhuo came to the kitchen, brought some stewed noodles from the cold storage, made two bowls of oily noodles, scooped up a few sheep's hoofs, put some pickled peppers and chicken feet, and mixed a small portion of onion and fungus.

After it was done, Xu Zhuo brought it out from the kitchen on a tray and placed it on the dining table. Zhao Guangming, who was appreciating the layout of the store, saw it with surprise.

From when Xu Zhuo went to the kitchen to when he came out, it took about ten minutes. In such a short period of time, he not only cooked the main course, but also the side dishes, and even arranged the dishes on purpose, which was simply beyond imagination.

Zhao Guangming is no stranger to back kitchens, and he has seen chefs who are quick to do things, but there are not many young chefs in the whole province who are quick and pay attention to the presentation of dishes.

No wonder grandpa is so keen to accept him as an apprentice, maybe all chefs want to have such an apprentice?

After sighing, Zhao Guangming took the chopsticks, stirred the oily noodles, took a bite with the chopsticks, and immediately gave Xu Zhuo a thumbs up: "The craftsmanship is awesome!"

The stewed noodles of Zhao Ji's private kitchen are very famous in the provincial capital. Zhao Guangming, who is a member of the Zhao family, is no stranger to it.

The entrance is smooth and chewy, and it is cooked just right. When it is eaten into the mouth, Zhao Guangming unconsciously thinks of the stewed noodles made by his grandfather Zhao Jinma.

I really want to go home and eat a bowl of stewed noodles made by my grandfather.

pity……

Zhao Guangming sighed slightly in his heart, stopped thinking about it, and concentrated on eating the oily noodles in the bowl.

The atmosphere was still very dull. Xu Zhuo originally planned to ask Zhao Guangming if he drank, but thinking about his orientation, he decided to forget it.

I was already a little drunk, but if I drank too much, I might make trouble.

After eating, Zhao Guangming was not in a good mood. He said to Xu Zhuo, "I went abroad to investigate molecular cuisine in the early morning. When I come back, I hope I can cook such a meal for you."

Xu Zhuo smiled: "No problem, I'll wait."

Zhao Guangming got in the car and left in a chic manner.

Xu Zhuo cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, took out the money from Zhao Guangming's red envelope and stuffed it into his bag, locked the door and left the noodle shop.

The home has been taken, and Boss Xu can only find another place to live tonight.

He called Meng Liwei, who didn't know if he was asleep or didn't hear him, but he didn't answer, and so did several others.

When he arrived at the entrance of the medical school, Xu Zhuo saw that an express hotel was still open, so he opened the door and entered, intending to get a room, but only after he took out his wallet did he find that his ID card was missing.

Without an ID card, he couldn't open a room, so Boss Xu came out of the express hotel helplessly.

Standing by the side of the road, he laughed at himself. He was a native of Linping City with a hundred thousand cash on him, but now he was cornered and couldn't even find a place to sleep.

The car was driven away by Li Hao and disappeared, Xu Zhuo called him several times but he didn't answer.

In desperation, Xu Zhuo waved to a taxi in the distance.

He planned to go to Lin Ping Hotel, and see how they would spend the night with each other before they slept.

"Xiao Xu? Why are you taking a taxi at this hour?"

When the taxi came, Xu Zhuo found out that the driver was Fat Brother.

Xu Zhuo smiled: "My parents live in my house, which made me have no place to go. I wanted to open a room to sleep overnight, but I lost my ID card at some point... Why do you work the night shift?"

Fat Brother yawned, unscrewed the teacup at hand and took a sip of strong tea: "Isn't your noodle shop opening tomorrow, I have to come over to cheer, and it happens that my night shift driver is busy tonight, so I changed shifts with him." .”

Xu Zhuo never expected that the opening of his small shop would touch the hearts of so many people.

If I had known this way, I wouldn't have to worry about it, and just opened the door for business, so as not to cause trouble to others.

After drinking the tea, Fat Brother pointed to the express hotel next to him and said, "Come on, I'll use my ID card to open a room for you, and get some boiling water by the way."

Xu Zhuo was taken aback: "Do you know people from this hotel?"

Fat brother took the water glass and pushed the door to get out of the car: "My brother-in-law drove it, let's go, you will open tomorrow, you must have a lot of things to do, go to sleep, I will do some work later and go back to sleep , I’m really not used to staying up all night suddenly.”

The two strolled into the hotel and left. The fat brother quickly opened a room for Xu Zhuo, then got a cup of hot water from the water dispenser, told Xu Zhuo to rest early, and then went out with his stomach full.

When Xu Zhuo came to the room, he felt drowsy. He took off his clothes and fell asleep on the bed without even taking a shower.

He slept very comfortably that night, and when Xu Zhuo opened his eyes again, it was almost seven o'clock.

I took a look at my phone and saw a bunch of missed calls, as well as a bunch of unread messages on WeChat and QQ.

Before he had time to check, he hurriedly checked out and left after washing up carelessly, and trotted all the way to Sifang Restaurant.

There are quite a lot of people in the noodle shop at the moment, besides the employees in the shop and the people from the Xu family, there are also staff from the celebration company, who are busy fixing equipment such as inflatable arches and speakers.

When Xu Zhuo came to the store, he threw his bag into Chen Guifang's hands and went to work in the back kitchen.

Babao stuffed pears haven’t been made yet, and the steamed pork with flour will have to be steamed later, and when there are many people, I have to come out to welcome everyone. Boss Xu really regrets that he didn’t set an alarm clock last night, which was too late up.

However, Chen Guifang is still holding him back to prevent him from leaving: "Son, how was last night? Did you two... have that?"

Xu Zhuo was taken aback, what do these words mean?

Zhao Guangming came here last night and ate a bowl of fried noodles here. Looking at Chen Guifang's gossip-like face, do you still hope that something will happen between you and Zhao Guangming?

"Mom, what do you mean by that? Zhao Guangming and I are just ordinary friends. What are you thinking?"

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhuo was about to go to the back kitchen, but was pulled back by Chen Guifang: "Zhao Guangming? What Zhao Guangming? You were not with Keke last night?"

"Stinky boy, please tell me clearly, what happened last night? When did you get entangled with Zhao Guangming? Could it be that the two of you last night... Oh my god, it was terrible!"

Chapter 279 "Son, does he like you?"

Chen Guifang looked like he had seen a ghost, and Xu Zhuo was surprised by his exaggerated demeanor and behavior.

Why did he suddenly feel that Chen Guifang was so excited?

Could it be that his mother is a rotten girl?

Shaking his head, Xu Zhuo got rid of this unrealistic idea, then grabbed Chen Guifang who was going to the back kitchen to complain to Xu Wenhai, and told her the whole process of Zhao Guangming's arrival last night.

He even told Chen Guifang about staying in an express hotel with the help of Fat Brother.
