Chapter 27 Octopus Cake

Yu Lu didn't have much impression of this gathering, he only remembered that a group of old classmates had become very sophisticated and unfamiliar. Luo Yufen had been there, but the two of them didn't even speak to each other.

Luo Yufen almost died because of this meal.This day is the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month. According to tradition, it is the day to remove dust and sacrifice to the Kitchen God. Every household has to be cleaned. Although Luo Yufen has a nanny at home, she has to do these things by herself and with the nanny. She originally planned to have dinner with her classmates at noon , Go back to work in the afternoon.

As a result, after returning from Haibawang, she was made things difficult by her mother-in-law, saying that she was playful and ignorant, so she threw the two children at home, and the two children cried for their mother, arguing to death.Luo Yufen didn't speak, and hurriedly changed her shoes and went upstairs to coax the children. When the two children saw their mother, they rushed forward and cried with snot and tears. Don't mention how sad, she hurriedly comforted the two sons.

The nanny came to ask her about the cleaning again. Luo Yufen was in a bad mood today, and when she came back, she was crying by the child again, so she said impatiently: "If you see what needs to be cleaned, clean it first, don't ask me."

Luo Yufen is usually very easy-going, active and hardworking. The nanny's original intention was to urge her to clean up together, but she got a bad nose and was unhappy. Later, she complained to Luo Yufen's mother-in-law, saying that Luo Yufen didn't want to clean and even got angry at her.The mother-in-law suddenly became angry, ran upstairs, pointed at Luo Yufen's nose, and scolded her bloody. Spending money for nothing, she knows how to play by herself, she knows how to pick things up at her mother's house, she doesn't know how to be grateful at all, she is worse than pigs, dogs and animals... she is worthless.

Luo Yufen was about to bite her teeth, and her face was covered with tears: "I'll go to work after the Chinese New Year!"

The mother-in-law put her hands on her hips, squinted at her and sneered: "You go to work? What can you do? What are your skills? You can't even take care of your husband and children. What else can you do? It's not that I look down on you, you are out of my Huang family Damen, if you can support yourself, I will call you mother-in-law!"

Luo Yufen couldn't help crying and said, "You say everything. I don't go to work, and you think I'm spending your family's money. I go to work, but you say I didn't take good care of your son and grandson! I will do whatever I want. Incorrect!"

"If you didn't do well, of course it was wrong! Why don't people say you?" the mother-in-law said sharply.

"I'm going to work, and I won't do anything for your family!" Luo Yufen finally stiffened up and said something serious.

"I saw that you went out to play, and your heart became wild. Did you hook up with a wild man outside, so you wanted to go out for a private meeting! Our Huang family doesn't have a woman as unruly as you. You really pissed me off, What about Ah Jian, ask Ah Jian to come back and deal with this woman!" The Huang family is an upstart, and Mrs. Huang is an out-and-out woman in the market. They all picked their noses and eyes, not to mention the cowardly and incompetent Luo Yufen, she didn't think highly of this daughter-in-law at all.

Luo Yufen was trembling with anger, and pushed her mother-in-law out forcefully: "Get out, get out! I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Then she closed the door forcefully, banging her head against the door in anger. What crime did she do? Such a family.

Now the old lady was like a volcano erupting, her legs were splayed, her waist was thrust up, and she kept kicking the door with her feet, scolding Luo Yufen outside the door for stealing a man to raise a man, corrupting the family style, and wanting to drag her out of the pond.

In the room, Luo Yufen's two sons were so frightened that they hugged their mother's legs and cried, and Luo Yufen also hugged her two sons and cried loudly.

At this time the door was kicked open, Huang Jiangong stared at the blood-red bull's eyes, couldn't help saying, grabbed Luo Yufen and slapped Luo Yufen several times with all his strength, until blood dripped from Luo Yufen's nose and mouth, this was not enough, grab her He slammed his head against the wall: "Damn woman, bitch, see if I don't kill you! When did I, Huang Jiangong, get bullied like this and get cuckolded? Go to hell!" The voice was so shrill. They all changed their tune, and after speaking, they raised their feet and kicked the person two meters away.

Luo Yufen was so beaten that her mind was dazed. She didn't resist at all. She opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. The two children were so frightened that they fell silent.The old lady Huang at the door was also shocked: "A Jian, don't beat him to death!"

The tyrannical Huang Jiangong took a breath at this moment. He pointed at Luo Yufen on the ground and yelled, "Bitch, bitch, where do you think you went today? Did you go to Haibawang to seduce men?"

Luo Yufen was lying on the ground only to vent her anger, not to breathe in, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, she just went to a class reunion, and she didn't even have a word with Yu Lu, in the end she was murdered like this, what a shame Do not rest in peace.She coughed a few times, spat out a mouthful of blood, and did not speak.

The two children were so frightened that they cried and were taken away by Mrs. Huang. Before leaving, she told her son: "A Jian, although she should be beaten, but you must not beat her to death. Just teach her a lesson." Although the old lady is domineering, she still knows about killing and paying for life, and she is afraid that her son will cause a catastrophe.

Huang Jiangong sat by the bed and looked at Luo Yufen coldly: "Bitch, I think you live too leisurely, and you have the time to seduce men."

Luo Yufen uttered three words: "Let's get a divorce."

Huang Jiangong sneered, his face grim: "Unless you die!"

Luo Yufen closed her eyes, moved a little, and struggled to get up from the ground. Huang Jiangong watched her movements coldly, without making a sound.Luo Yufen sat up, gasped for a long time, finally stood up, and walked slowly to the window.Huang Jiangong sneered: "Do you want to jump off a building? If you have the ability to jump, I will follow your surname Luo!"

Luo Yufen opened the window, stood by the window and watched for a long time, then grabbed the window frame and threw down with all her strength. Huang Jiangong's eyes widened and he jumped up, but he had already fallen.This was the third floor, and Luo Yufen slammed straight on the steps downstairs, making a dull sound, but it was the loudest protest and whine in her short and dull life.

Huang Jiangong roared in horror: "Ah Fen!"

It was originally a day to worship the Kitchen God to celebrate the new year, and every household was very lively, and the Huang family was completely lively.

It was already the afternoon of the second day when Yu Lu knew about it, and he still heard it from the waitress: "Ah Lu, you know, right? A Fen from Luo Maogang's family jumped off the building."

Yu Lu was chopping vegetables at the time and almost cut his finger. He put down the knife and looked at his aunt: "Mum, what's going on? What's wrong with Ah Fen?"

The three aunts were all crowded in the kitchen, and everyone sighed. One aunt said: "It was said that she had an argument with her husband yesterday, and she got angry and jumped down from the third floor. She didn't die, she had serious internal bleeding, and she is still being treated in the city hospital." , and my brain was injured."

"Yeah, I heard that Huang Jiangong watched her dance, didn't he pull it? What a crime, what a wonderful girl A Fen is."

"I think that Ah Fen was forced to death by Luo Maogang and Li Qiulian. If they weren't greedy for money, how could Ah Fen marry into the Huang family. The Huang family is so rich, it's obviously because the family is not in the right place. Ah Fen's submissive temper, Isn't it a sin to go?"

"..."

The aunts are all from Yulutong Village, and they know Luo Yufen's details very well, and when they talk about it now, they all sigh with regret.

Yu Lu couldn't help trembling all over his body. If Huang Jiangong, that bastard, hadn't been cornered, how could Ah Fen seek death? He picked up the knife and slammed it on the cutting board with a loud "boom" sound. Everyone was startled, everyone calmed down and looked at Yu Lu.

Ah Hai looked at Yu Lu, walked over, and found that the cutting board had been cracked.He stretched out his hand, broke off Yu Lu's fingers, took the knife over, stretched out his arm, and patted him on the shoulder: "It's a blessing in misfortune that the person didn't die. The floor is not high, so there shouldn't be any What a big deal."

Yu Lu looked down at the chopping board on the desk, changed to another one, took back the knife from Ah Hai, took a piece of meat, and began to chop it vigorously, as if it was Huang Jiangong's meat. To chop up to pieces.

Seeing him like this, Ah Hai didn't say anything, and said to a few aunts: "It's okay, you go out." Turning around, he said to Lu, "Don't chop pork, chop some fish. I'll make fish for Ah Bing tonight." cake to eat."

Yu Lu was originally full of resentment, but when he heard what Ah Hai said, he suddenly couldn't help laughing: "You just know how to eat!"

Ah Hai spread his hands: "I'm a cook, if I don't know how to eat, how can I mess around." He swiftly fished out two dace weighing two catties from the pool, removed the scales, guts, heads, and bones, and put them in batches. The fish was placed on Yu Lu's chopping board: "Cut it."

Looking at the fish meat, Yu Lu picked up a knife and began to chop the fish meat. At first, he still cut the meat, but he didn't chop fast. Later, he became faster and harder, and the sound changed from "ding ding ding" to "dong dong dong" , cursing while cutting: "Fuck, bastard, beast, scum, murderer..."

Ah Hai looked at him: "Believe it or not, Ah Bing ate fish cakes tonight, and he would curse like that."

"Fart!" Yu Lu replied rudely.

Ah Hai said, "Have you never heard of the fairy tale "The King Has Rabbit Ears"?"

"What and what?" Yu Lu frowned.

Ah Hai said, "Are you sad?"

Yu Lu was stunned for a moment, understood what A Hai said, and was silent for a moment: "She has always had a good temper, and she is very kind and gentle. If she hadn't been forced to a corner, she would definitely not have committed suicide."

"She used to be your girlfriend?" Ah Hai asked.

Yu Lu lowered his head: "That happened a long time ago, and it has nothing to do with me now. But even as an ordinary friend, I can't be indifferent. Huang Jiangong, a beast, is simply a mad dog, biting people everywhere, You still doubt the relationship between me and Ah Fen, we haven't been in touch for many years."

Ah Hai sighed: "She definitely didn't marry willingly."

Yu Lu said with a straight face, "I don't know, maybe."

"That's right, you may have given up your mind long ago, but she may not. She is not willing to marry, and when she encounters unsatisfactory places, she will think of your goodness, so her heart will become more and more unbalanced, and the relationship between husband and wife will naturally become more and more serious. Stiff." Ah Hai analyzed this truth like a philosopher.

Yu Lu swallowed hard: "So, the incident of her jumping off the building may have something to do with me?"

Ah Hai said: "Maybe it has something to do with you, but it's not your responsibility, so you don't have to blame yourself."

Yu Lu's action of chopping meat stopped, and he clenched his teeth.

Ah Hai added: "She would choose such an extreme method, which shows that she has obvious defects in her character. She is cowardly and timid, and dare not resist her parents and husband to fight for her own life. Therefore, it is often said that poor people must have Hateful."

Yu Lu glared at Ah Hai: "Your words are really cold-blooded."

Ah Hai shrugged his shoulders: "No one likes to hear the truth."

"Should I go and see her?" Yu Lu asked, in fact, it was more like asking himself.

Ah Hai said: "Since you think it might have something to do with you, it's better not to go, so as not to cause a bigger misunderstanding."

Yu Lu also knew this was the case, but he always felt oppressed and uncomfortable. He felt aggrieved for Luo Yufen in his heart, but he was completely powerless.

A Hai said: "Then Huang Jiangong is a guy who will take revenge, and he is very likely to blame you for this matter."

"Damn it, what does this have to do with me!" Yu Lu cursed bitterly, "If you dare to provoke me, let him be like this fish, I will chop him to pieces!"

"It's always good to have an open mind. Look carefully, all the meat has gone off the cutting board." Ah Hai reminded lightly.

Yu Lu looked down at the messy fish meat on the chopping board. Because he was absent-minded, the fish meat was chopped unevenly. He took a deep breath and began to concentrate on chopping the meat, using this concentration to drive out the anger and discomfort in his heart.

Fish cakes are usually made of herring, grass carp, etc., but the dace produced here are more suitable for making fish cakes, because the meat is tender and delicious. After the fish is minced, add a little cornstarch, two eggs, and monosodium glutamate , salt, a little sugar, stir vigorously with an egg beater in the container, and beat it into a very viscous paste, which is called fish greens. Put the fish greens in the refrigerator for an hour, then take them out and beat them into cakes , that is, fish cakes, of course, you can also make some shapes you want. For example, Yu Bing especially likes to squeeze fish cakes into small fish shapes.

The prepared fish cakes are put in an oil pan and fried over low heat until both sides are golden. They can be eaten while they are hot, or they can be cut into stir-fried vegetables after cooling down.Fish cake not only retains the deliciousness of fish meat, but also has the elasticity, aroma, smoothness and refreshingness that fish meat does not have. The delicious taste is endless aftertaste.Yu Bing likes to eat fish cakes, because fish cakes are like QQ candy, his favorite snack, and they are particularly delicious to chew.

That night, Yu Bing ate his favorite fish cakes. He used chopsticks to skewer three fried golden fish cakes by himself, and ate them like snacks.Yu Lu yelled at him: "You eat so much food, and you need to drink water again later, so be careful at night, and see if I don't wet your bed and beat your ass to pieces!"

"Then I'll sleep with uncle!" Yu Bing was not afraid of threats at all.

Yu Lu sneered: "Then I can't wait, when your uncle is asleep and no one will turn on the light for you, you can draw a map on your uncle's bed and see if he beats you to bloom!"

"Then I will sleep with Uncle A Hai, and he will turn on the light for me." Yu Bing is confident now, his relationship with A Hai is magnetic.

"Okay, then you can sleep with Uncle Ah Hai." Yu Lu threw the hot potato out.

At night, Yu Bing didn't sleep with Ah Hai, but slept on the bed on the road. Yu Lu watched TV alone in the living room. He was afraid of waking up people, and the volume was kept very low. In fact, he didn't know what was on the TV, but he was just dumb Sitting in a daze, he couldn't fall asleep, and when he closed his eyes, he kept shaking Luo Yufen's bruised face, thinking that she had told him that she wanted a divorce, why didn't she leave sooner, otherwise she wouldn't There was this tragedy.He didn't know that the tragedy was caused by the divorce.

Ah Hai came out of the room, sat next to him, and handed him a cigarette, but Yu Lu didn't pick it up, Ah Hai put the cigarette by his mouth, lit it himself, and stuffed it into Yu Lu's mouth: "Smoke a cigarette." .”

Yu Lu rolled his eyeballs, took the cigarette in his hand, and took a deep puff, which made him cough.When he was a teenager, he secretly learned to smoke, but he didn't know much about it. Later, something happened at home, and he had no spare money to smoke. So he still doesn't know how to smoke, and he still coughs when he smokes.

Ah Hai stretched out his hand and patted him on the back: "Don't worry, she will be fine."

Yu Lu lowered his head, and after a while he said: "When I think that her accident may be related to me, I feel uncomfortable." Yu Lu's nose was sore.

Ah Hai stretched out his hand to touch the back of his head: "Don't think too much, this matter has nothing to do with you. If you are really worried, when you are free, take a sneak peek to see if she is okay."

Yu Lu let out a "hmm" and unconsciously leaned against Ah Hai. He felt cold all over, but this person was very warm.Ah Hai was a little surprised by his movements, and the next moment, he stretched out his arms and wrapped them around Yu Lu's shoulders, letting his head rest on his shoulders.

Yu Nan was a little worried when he heard the coughing outside the room. He opened the door to see what happened. After seeing this scene, he was very shocked, but he didn't say anything, and closed the door gently.

That night, many people could not sleep.Yu Lu leaned against Ah Hai and slowly fell asleep. Seeing that he was asleep, Ah Hai picked him up and put him back on the bed. He didn't wake up during this process.Ah Hai touched the man's face, couldn't help but kissed him on the forehead, and then carried Yu Bing to his room so as not to disturb his sleep.

A few days ago, Haibawang had at least one banquet every day, and the restaurant was extremely busy.Fortunately, with the help of Zhong Yanhong's temporary workers, it didn't look too chaotic, but it was so busy every day, everyone was exhausted, because there was no rest day at all, the young people were fine, and they were alive and well after sleeping , but the aunts are miserable. They are old and weak. They can't stand and walk for a long time. Whenever they have free time, their buttocks stick to the chair and don't want to move.

Yu Lu promised to give everyone a red envelope during the Chinese New Year, and Ah Hai was also very careful. Although he didn’t say anything, he would cook a pot of nourishing Laohuo soup for everyone every day, including yam and wolfberry black chicken soup, sea cucumber tenderloin soup, and walnut eucommia pork loin soup , Gecko and quail soup, etc., are different every day.It doesn't cost much, but being so caring makes the employees feel that the boss is kind, and there will be fewer complaints when they work.

Yu Nan ran for three days, and finally got A Hai's household registration. For convenience, A Hai named him Yu Hai. He was the elder brother of Yu Lu, the head of the household. To his day, November 11rd.If you have a household registration, you are not considered a black person. The temporary ID card is also being processed, and it will take three days to get it. That is to say, you can get the ID card on the 3th day of the twelfth lunar month.

27 Early this morning, when everyone was still having breakfast, a car stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. Two people got out of the car, and one of them showed his ID: "We are employees of the County Food and Drug Administration, who is the boss here? We have received a report that your chef is engaged in service work while suffering from viral hepatitis, please cooperate with our inspection and show the health certificates of all of you."

Yu Lu glanced at Ah Hai, and found that Ah Hai was also looking at him. They understood that someone was playing tricks behind their backs again, who could it be?Is it Huang Jiangong?Does he still have time to take care of this now?Or is it the ghosts of people in the same industry, such as the self-defeating Fortune Restaurant next door?He was a little flustered.

Yu Lu hurriedly said: "I'm the boss, Yu Lu. Please wait a moment, I'm going to get a health certificate. These are my brother and my younger brother. They are not employees of the store. They just come to my place for breakfast. They don't need to show their health certificates." Right?" He pointed to Ah Hai and Yu Nan.

The supervisor held a notebook and said: "There are two chefs in your store, Yu Lu and A Hai, and five waiters, a total of seven. Please show your ID cards and health certificates. We will verify them one by one. Especially when checking the health certificates of the two chefs."

Yu Lu's lips were stretched into a straight line, who the hell reported it, even knew this so clearly.

"You are Yu Lu, so who is Ah Hai?" The supervisor said and turned his attention to Yu Bing, who was the youngest. Without adults' instigation, children will not lie.

Yu Bing looked at him puzzled, and then at his uncle.

Ah Hai said blankly, "I am."

The person from the Supervision Bureau sneered and said, "Just now he said that you are not a staff member here, so you are the one with hepatitis?"

Ah Hai said very firmly: "I don't have hepatitis!"

"Then how do you prove it, your health certificate?"

Ah Hai said: "I haven't done it yet. I lost my ID card and I'm reapplying for it. I can only apply for a health certificate after the ID card is reissued."

"Without a health certificate, you can't work in the catering industry, so please leave your post automatically and get a certificate to prove that you are healthy and qualified before you can start working." Added, "We will come here from time to time for supervision and inspection. If we find that you are still operating illegally, we will punish your store, expose your scandal on TV, and even revoke your business license."

Yu Lu hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, comrade, I was a little impatient just now. Our master has indeed lost his ID card and is reapplying for it. It is impossible to get a health certificate without an ID card, so I said that. We It is definitely not intentional not to do it, I can guarantee that my chef does not have any infectious diseases."

The other party glanced at him contemptuously: "Can you guarantee it? You can see the virus with the naked eye? If you are sick, you will know when you go to the hospital for an examination. Don't take any chances and work secretly. We may come to check at any time. Once Check it out, and you will bear the consequences!" After speaking, he swaggered away.

Yu Lu was completely numb and didn't know what to do. Tonight they have a banquet in the store, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and there are still many restaurants that have ordered New Year's Eve dinner on the [-]th night. If Ah Hai can't cook, just Can such a big scene be handled by a half-assed person on his own?I blame myself for not paying attention to this issue. I should have gone to register for Ah Hai earlier.

Yu Nan said worriedly: "What should I do? Is it true that Brother Ah Hai can't cook anymore?"

Yu Lu wiped his face and calmed down: "I'll call and ask Mouse, can you rush me to get the ID card ready for us right away."

Ah Hai took out his mobile phone and went outside to make a call, but it took a long time to pick up the other end, the voice was full of sleepiness, obviously he hadn't woken up yet: "Who is it?"

Ah Hai said: "Boss Zhong, I am Ah Hai of the Overlord of the Sea, and I need your help with something."

Zhong Yanhong became more sober: "You are really a rare visitor, tell me, what's the matter?"

"We were reported and said that I had an infectious disease and could no longer work."

"Then do you have any?" Zhong Yanhong laughed.

"Of course not. The problem is that I have lost my ID card and am reapplying for it, but I haven't got my health certificate yet," Ah Hai said.

Zhong Yanhong said, "How do you want me to help you?"

Ah Hai said: "Few people know that I lost my ID card. We happened to offend a guy. He knew about me. I suspect it was his fault. Now is the busiest moment. We have played four games. There will be a banquet tonight, and there is also a New Year's Eve dinner, if I can't cook, Yu Lu will definitely not be able to handle it, isn't this going to delay other people's happy event?"

Zhong Yanhong understood: "Someone wants to keep you out of business for a few days, compensate for losses, and smash your signboard?"

"It should be like this. Can you do me a favor and get me an ID card and a health certificate today."

"Boss, you are a god! You are so urgent." Zhong Yanhong yelled.

Ah Hai said: "You just said whether it can be done? The ID card was applied for the day before yesterday. According to the normal process, it will not be available until tomorrow. Yu Lu has already asked Police Officer Xiao Liu for help. The health certificate is usually not available on the same day. , so I asked for your help."

Zhong Yanhong immediately felt as if he had been beaten into chicken blood: "Yes, yes, I can do it. Who did you offend?"

"Huang Jiangong."

Zhong Yanhong's voice became louder: "Who? Fuck me, that turtle bastard surnamed Huang! This matter is on me, and I will definitely help you. Get ready to go to the hospital for an examination. I can help you before dinner." .”

"The sooner the better. I also borrow two chefs from your kitchen to help with the lunch meal."

"Boss, can't you go out of business for half a day?"

"Several tables have been booked out for noon, so Yu Lu should have no problem dealing with it." Ah Hai said lightly.

"Okay. Then you owe me a big favor." Zhong Yanhong said lazily.

"I know, I will definitely pay back in the future." Ah Hai knew that it was impossible for Zhong Yanhong to help him for free.
