Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

"boom!"

"That kid Chen Jun is going too far!"

When Yi Zhonghai returned home, he became angrier and angrier. He felt that he had spent five dollars but didn't get any information.

Instead, I felt more and more uneasy.

Because he couldn't tell whether what Chen Jun said was true or false.

Seeing this, the aunt hurriedly comforted him, "Boss, why are you angry with that boy? He Daqing can come back if he wants. We still have Dongxu, so retirement is not a problem."

"Besides, He Daqing didn't pay any attention to us during the day. Maybe he just happened to come to deliver something. Who knows, he might not come again in the future."

"You know nothing!"

Yi Zhonghai said angrily, "As long as He Daqing is in Sijiu City, I feel uneasy. And just now, Chen Jun took five dollars from me but didn't tell me anything. This is a perverse trend! If everyone follows his example, the Siheyuan will be in chaos."

"Why aren't you at ease? At worst, you can just focus all your energy on Dongxu in the future." The aunt was very puzzled.

Why is Yi Zhonghai so sensitive about He Daqing's affairs?

Although the couple had discussed it before, the aunt felt that Jia Dongxu was more suitable for elderly care, because he still needed Yi Zhonghai to teach him skills, and since they had a master-disciple relationship, he would have to take care of them in their old age, otherwise they would be criticized by people in the hospital.

But Yi Zhonghai feels that Sha Zhu is more reliable than Jia Dongxu because Sha Zhu is more filial than Jia Dongxu.

"Let's eat!"

Yi Zhonghai didn't want to say much to the aunt, so he interrupted the previous topic by talking about eating.

Early the next morning.

Lin Yao got up and went to check on the old hens in the chicken coop.

To her, this old hen is not only for laying eggs for the family, but also like a pet.

Bending down to take a look into the chicken coop, Lin Yao felt a little dazzled.

There are actually two eggs in this chicken coop!

I rubbed it with my hands and took a closer look and found that there were indeed two eggs.

Check the other two chicken coops.

They are exactly the same!

This...this is impossible, right?

Although the Chen family had never raised chickens, someone had raised one in the front yard before. It was an old hen that was lucky enough to lay one egg a day.

If the hen is in a bad mood, she may not lay a single egg for two or three days.

So Lin Yao more or less knows the habits of hens.

Laying two eggs in one night is too outrageous.

And these three old hens were the same, all laid two eggs.

"Brother, brother, come and have a look. Our old hen has laid eggs. Two at that." Lin Yao hurriedly shouted into the house.

This shout not only called out Chen Jun and Wang Xia, but also called out Liu Haizhong and the second aunt who were washing their faces.

They gathered around the chicken coop and took a closer look, and couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.

Oh my god, it’s true!

Three old hens laid six eggs in one night!

What kind of chicken is this? It’s so productive.

According to the current price of eggs in the vegetable market, an egg this big can probably be sold for about eight or nine cents.

Six eggs cost at least fifty cents.

People these days are generally lacking in nutrition and oil. Eggs are a very nutritious food for ordinary families.

"Wow, where did you buy your chickens? They lay so many eggs!" asked the second aunt enviously.

Lin Yao picked the eggs out of the chicken coop and replied, "I bought it right in front of the vegetable market."

Upon hearing this, the second aunt glanced at Liu Haizhong, indicating that she also wanted to buy three to raise.

After all, in their family, Liu Haizhong has to fry two eggs from time to time.

If you raise a few old hens at home, you can save money on buying eggs.

Liu Haizhong naturally understood what the second aunt meant, but he shook his head and said, "No, no, it's winter, chickens are hard to raise, and they don't lay many eggs."

"These three old hens may have been holding back for many days, and only laid two eggs at once."

Upon hearing this, the second aunt nodded.

Indeed, it is not appropriate to buy old hens to raise in the middle of winter.

Especially when the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is safer to buy some chickens that have already been slaughtered.

You can skip the step of raising the chicken and eat it directly.

Don't worry, just wait and see. If Chen Jun's old hen can lay two eggs every day, you can go to the same place and buy two.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Jun closed his stall and went home. After resting for a while, he went directly to the steel rolling mill.

Tonight's reception is quite elaborate, so some things need to be prepared in advance.

After registering at the door, the guard called the personnel department and let Chen Jun in after confirming.

He had been to the canteen of the steel rolling mill once before, and he didn't need anyone to lead the way, so he walked straight to the canteen.

As soon as he arrived, Director Wang from the Personnel Department also trotted over.

"Come, everything is ready. Take a look first to see if you're missing anything. If there's anything missing, I'll ask the purchasing department to buy it."

Chen Jun nodded and said with a smile: "As long as there are enough ingredients, leave the rest to me."

He still had a lot of seasonings in his ring space that he had obtained from signing in, so even if the steel mill was short of any seasonings, he could make up for it himself.

Moreover, our own seasonings are of better quality and more complete in variety than those at the steel mill.

The two of them went into the kitchen while talking and chatting.

At this time, the kitchen was not yet finished, and two apprentices were cleaning.

Chen Jun took a quick look and found that there were several more people than the last time he came.

"Clap clap clap!"

Director Wang clapped his hands and said, "Please stop what you are doing for a moment. I have something to tell you."

"It's important to entertain a table tonight. You will all listen to Master Chen's arrangements later."

"Master Li, why don't you help Master Chen today? Although Master Chen is young, he is very skilled. It won't hurt for you to learn more."

The man named Master Li grinned when he heard this, wiped his hands on his apron, and shook hands with Chen Jun enthusiastically.

"Hello, Master Chen. I will learn from you today."

Ever since He Daqing ran away, there hasn't been any decent chef in the steel mill canteen.

Master Li is the tallest among the short guys, and was called here to help.

Even though he is only a ninth-level cook, he is already the highest-level chef in the steel mill.

The big pot of dishes was so delicious that the workers no longer cursed the canteen.

He also had people in the kitchen mention Chen Jun, saying that the last time he came to entertain guests, all the dishes were eaten up and there was nothing left to take away.

So Master Li was very enthusiastic about Chen Jun, and thought about helping him, maybe he could learn a few tricks from him.

Chen Jun had no objection to this, and said to Master Li with a smile: "It's not about learning, but just exchanging ideas."

Master Li felt relieved immediately after hearing this.

Although Master Chen is not very old, he is very knowledgeable about the ways of the world.

A single exchange of words put the two people on the same level.

Not bad, not bad, much better than He Daqing.
