Siheyuan: I, an ordinary resident, the king of chefs

They looked like a poor family, and it turned out that the whole family was pretending to be poor.

When Chen Xueru saw the brothers and sisters, she couldn't help but complain:

"Zhang Liang, you are too rude. With such a background, you dress like this. Aren't you just pretending to be poor?"

Zhang Liang found Chen Xueru's words outrageous.

He smiled and responded to Chen Xueru:

"Boss Chen, we are not pretending to be poor, we are really poor!"

"I don't have to lie to you, do I?"

"Our family was really poor. There was nothing valuable in the house. Anyone who came to our house would have to donate a few coins."

There was no falsehood in what Zhang Liang said.

When he thought of the house that leaked whenever it rained, he couldn't help but shed a few tears.

Anyone who sees it will be tempted to donate to their family.

If it were my time, my family would definitely be on the minimum living allowance.

To Chen Xueru, this sentence sounded like showing off. She rolled her eyes and said unhappily:

"Come on, I don't believe a word you say."

When she said this, Chen Xueru looked at Uncle Wang next to her:

"Uncle Wang, look at Zhang Liang. Even after what has been said, he is still pretending."

Uncle Wang just replied cheerfully:

"There are some issues with what you said."

"Even if you are a disciple of a master in Diaoyutai, no one stipulates that you must be rich!"

"Besides, even if the clothes they wear are a bit old, they still uphold the good qualities of hardship and simplicity. They are following the call!"

"If you ask me, their family's lifestyle is the most suitable. I will make this dress look older tomorrow. I must also advocate this kind of hard-working and simple sentiment!"

Chen Xueru looked at Uncle Wang defending Zhang Liang and snorted coldly, saying:

"I don't believe he is really self-taught!"

Zhang Liang watched the two of them talking more and more outrageously, and said with a smile:

"Uncle Wang, Boss Chen, what are you two talking about? I don't have any chef to teach me how to cook. I just studied recipes at home and learned how to cook!"

"If I were a disciple of a master in Diaoyutai, would I still be able to set up a stall here?"

Chen Xueru didn't believe what he said, and continued:

"You may fool a three-year-old with these words, but you can't fool me!"

"If you really aren't some master's apprentice, but you studied the recipes and learned your cooking skills, then it wouldn't matter if I married you!"

Chen Xueru was also determined in her heart. Zhang Liang was the apprentice of a master in Diaoyutai, so when she said this, she did not feel weak at all.

When Zhang Liang heard what Chen Xueru said, he smiled and waved his hand:

"Boss Chen, you are kidding. I am only seventeen or eighteen years old now."

Uncle Ma smiled and glanced at Zhang Liang:

"Zhang Liang, Boss Chen's meaning is so obvious, don't you understand it yet?"

"I just want to live with you!"

Zhang Liang smiled and waved his hand, and said quickly:

"Forget about this kind of thing. I don't want to bother Boss Chen at my age."

Chen Xueru was not happy to hear Zhang Liang's words. She put her hands on her waist and said:

"No, you think I'm too old?"

Zhang Liang hurriedly shook his head and continued to explain:

"That's not what I meant. I'm just too young. How could I possibly dislike you?"

Chen Xueru wanted to find Uncle Wang and speak a fair word for her. She looked at Uncle Wang and said:

"Uncle Wang, please say a few words for me. Look how much he despises me!"

At this time, Uncle Wang was eating twice-cooked pork with relish, his whole attention focused on the food.

Uncle Wang heard what Chen Xueru said and nodded perfunctorily:

"Yeah."

When Chen Xueru saw Uncle Wang like this, she snorted in annoyance:

"Oh, oh, oh, there are so many people at this table, and not one person has said a word for me. I won't eat anymore!"

When Chen Xueru said this, she put the money for the meal on the table and left with the two waiters.

Zhang Liang smiled and said to Chen Xueru:

"Boss Chen, please come again next time."

Chen Xueru ignored him.

After watching Chen Xueru walk away, Uncle Wang thought for a moment and then tried to probe:

"Zhang Liang, now that Boss Chen is gone, can you tell me the truth?"

Zhang Liang was a little confused when he heard what Uncle Wang said:

"What?"

Uncle Wang then asked:

"Can you tell me who your master is at Diaoyutai?"

"If you ask me, your master must be surnamed Hu. The Sichuan cuisine cooked by that master is the best in Beijing. No one can compare to him!"

Zhang Liang looked at Uncle Wang and brought the topic back to this point, smiled and shook his head and said:

"Uncle Wang, I've told you many times that I don't have any master from Diaoyutai. I learned this cooking skill by reading recipes."

Uncle Wang saw that he was unwilling to answer his question, so he turned his attention to the fifth sister next to him:

"Little girl, what's the name of your brother's master?"

While the fifth sister was happily eating the candied haws, she said in a baby voice:

"My third brother didn't have a master, he just learned by looking at recipes at home."

When Uncle Wang heard Fifth Sister’s answer, he was so angry that smoke came out of his head.

He patted Fifth Sister's head gently:

"Little girl, no matter what, Grandpa Wang has been playing with you here for the whole morning, and he even bought you some candied haws!"

"You have such a good relationship with Grandpa Wang, but you don't tell him the truth. You only know how to protect your third brother!"

Seeing that Uncle Wang was obsessed with this matter, Zhang Hechun beside him couldn't help but say:

"Uncle Wang, my third brother really didn't lie to you. He really developed his cooking skills at home."

When Uncle Wang heard what Zhang Hechun said, he snorted in annoyance.

He now saw clearly that Zhang Liang's family, including brothers and sisters, were all of the same mind, and it was not easy to get a word of truth out of their mouths.

Seeing that the brothers and sisters refused to talk, Uncle Wang gave up.

"Okay, okay, eat, eat, I can't ask any more questions."

Seeing that Uncle Wang finally stopped worrying about this matter, Zhang Liang and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

"If you ask me, your twice-cooked pork cooking skills are among the best in Diaoyutai!"

"My grandfather has been here for the whole morning and has eaten a lot of delicious food. It was worth the wait!"

Hearing what Uncle Wang said, Zhang Liang also had a smile on his face.

This Uncle Wang is worthy of being the owner of a winery. In one word, he is rich!
