Rebirth of Private Chef Xiao Ai

Chapter 7

"Brother." Gu Lousheng entered the main room and saw his elder brother sitting on a chair and flipping through something.Hearing this, Gu Linsheng raised his head and looked at the two of them.Song Cheng had never met Gu Linsheng before, so he stood upright behind Gu Lousheng at this time, giving Gu Linsheng a good look.

"This is the person you sent the news a few days ago?" Gu Linsheng looked at Song Cheng carefully, and nodded his head as a greeting.After more than half a month, Song Cheng's complexion is no longer as sallow as when he first came here.He was bigger than Gu Lousheng, his features were not as handsome as Gu Lousheng's, his shoulders were wide and his waist was straight, and he wore neat coarse clothes. He was not outstanding, but just an ordinary person.

Originally, Gu Linsheng was a little surprised to see Lou Sheng and Douer praising Song Cheng in the letter.But he just noticed that there were a few calluses on Song Cheng's hands, it could be seen that he was someone who could cook.Because Gu Changxin also had calluses on his hands, Gu Linsheng was very familiar with them.

"Haha, Lou Sheng, you've been slapped again by Daddy." Dou'er and Gong Ping were lying on the table next to them, but when they heard the voice, they both turned their heads and looked, both amused.Douer gloated and shouted, this is really a turn of events!In exchange for a blank stare from Gu Lousheng.

Gu Linsheng looked at Gu Changxin who was behind his younger brother dumbfoundedly, put down his book and walked over, took the broom in his hand and put it aside, carefully helped him to sit down at the table: "Why do you get more playful when you get older? The second floor student will give you a slap when he comes back." After finishing speaking, he raised his head and motioned for them all to take their seats, and then told the servants who had just opened the door curtain to come in that it's time for dinner.

Song Cheng was a little embarrassed, after all, this was Gu Lousheng's family banquet, and it was unreasonable to bring him here.But both Dou'er and Gu Lousheng said they wouldn't treat him as an outsider, and Gu Lousheng's eldest brother and wife-in-law didn't seem so difficult to get along with, which made him feel a little less uncomfortable, but still felt a little subtle.

"Why isn't my husband's sister-in-law cooking today?" Gu Lousheng frowned and asked just as soon as he moved his chopsticks: "I still want Song Cheng and my husband's sister-in-law to exchange cooking skills. We have to rely on his cooking skills to do business." What Gu Lousheng said was that he was confident, and Song Cheng was very encouraged by this trust.

Douer winked at Gu Lousheng mysteriously, signaling him to look at Gu Linsheng's attentiveness to Gu Changxin.After being signaled by Douer's winking, Song Cheng also looked at Gu Linsheng and Gu Changxin.He felt that the couple was very affectionate. From the way they got along, it could be seen that Gu Linsheng had been serving food for Gu Changxin, and he didn't even eat a few bites.

"Brother, what's wrong with Chang Xin?" Gu Lousheng saw that something was wrong, and bumped his elder brother with his elbow.Something's wrong, it's true that Gu Linsheng has been pampering Gu Changxin on weekdays, but it's not to this extent, he almost brought a bowl to feed him himself!

After being reminded by him, Gu Linsheng remembered something, put down his chopsticks, and said happily: "This time, I called you back because Douer is going to be married to Gong Ping, and I want to tell you good news."

What good news?Gu Lousheng was a little puzzled, but seeing Dou'er's expression as if he knew it already, he couldn't help but roll his eyes over it, brat, he just kept it in the dark without telling himself.And after searching around in his head, Gu Lousheng didn't think of any possible happy things.

"I have a constant heart." Gu Linsheng raised his glass to Song Cheng with a smile, and drank it down: "After so many years of anticipation, I'm finally going to be a father!"

When Gu Lousheng heard this, he immediately choked on the food in his mouth, Song Cheng put down his wine glass, patted him on the back, and comforted him.When Gu Lousheng was very young, his eldest brother and his wife and sister-in-law were together, but they have not had children for many years.Chang Xin doesn't say anything, but she really minds. Fortunately, the plum seal on her wrist is always there, so she still has hope.Although Gu Lousheng was happy in his heart, he stared at Gu Changxin on the surface, "Tell me how long it has been!"

"You still have the nerve to say that this is a happy event. Both your elder brother and I want to tell you personally. But you are lucky. You haven't been home for several months in charge of business." Chang Xin picked up Lou Sheng's favorite food Drumstick, glared back at him.Ever since the doctor from the town came to make sure, Gu Linsheng had been following him all day long, not asking him to do anything, but letting him panic.

Gu Lousheng flattened his mouth, unable to refute anything.I have been busy with business in the past few years, and I have indeed neglected my family. I don't even have many opportunities to see my eldest brother and wife.He was brought up by Gu Linsheng and Chang Xin, and they have always been very close, but because of business reasons, they saw each other less, and he was worried about him.

"I asked you to bring Song Cheng here this time because of Changxin." Gu Linsheng looked at Song Cheng, and Song Cheng also put down his chopsticks and sat down cautiously, looking at the other party.Hearing that Gu Linsheng said that he had something to do with him, Song Cheng felt a little strange, but it relieved his embarrassment a little bit - except for him, there was a family at this table, and he could only bury his head in eating, feeling that he couldn't fit in.

"Chang Xin has become more tempered since she was pregnant." Gu Linsheng looked at Song Cheng, regardless of his younger brother who was smiling smirkly: "I won't let him cook, but he always cooks the food cooked by the servants at home." It's disgust, I heard from Lou Sheng that you are good at cooking, so I want to ask you to help me."

"I... how can I help you, don't laugh at me." Song Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Gu Lousheng a little uneasy, but he didn't expect Gu Lousheng to look at him seriously!

"I asked the doctor, there are not many taboos, but I often feel acidophilic, and I always feel that the food is not tasty enough. The servant added too much vinegar, and he felt that the taste was not good, and it was very difficult to serve." Gu Linsheng said with a smile, and was also called Gu Changxin kicked under the table, but he didn't mind at all: "So I want you to take care of Chang Xin's diet for a few days."

"It's hot and sour! How about I close earlier these days and bring Song Cheng back to cook for my husband and sister-in-law?" Gu Lousheng felt that this idea is very feasible, and that family is more important than business, So he looked at Song Cheng, wanting to ask for advice, but Song Cheng lowered his head and didn't answer.

Gu Linsheng and Gu Changxin looked at each other, nodded and said: "Your husband and sister-in-law and I like the young master better, and it is true as you think. Let Song Cheng cook for Chang Xin for a while, and ask you to keep the restaurant closed." You definitely can't do it, and it would be inconvenient for you without Song Cheng. I heard from Douer that Chef Wang is going back to the countryside in two days."

At this time, Dou'er, who had been quiet for a while, said, "Brother Song, are you worried that the food you cook won't suit Daddy's taste?"

Song Cheng nodded quickly. Gu Linsheng and Gu Lousheng really found themselves a hard job. Not to mention that he has never studied the recipes of pregnant people, which made him cook for Gu Changxin, so he had to be more careful Be careful, people who are pregnant should be careful about what they eat, and they have higher requirements for food than ordinary people.If you mess up yourself, you'll be in big trouble.

"How about this, we won't go back today, there should be a vacant room in the house, let Song Cheng live there, how about waiting for Song Cheng to cook a few meals tomorrow and then decide?" Gu Lousheng thought for a while, A compromise was chosen.When Song Cheng heard it, he also felt that it was feasible, and after a few more discussions, the matter was decided.

Song Cheng woke up early the next day. He tossed and turned in bed last night and thought about it for a long time, and finally drew up a few recipes.After washing his face with well water, he saw Gu Lousheng coming out of the room next door stretching his waist. Obviously he was not awake, and he was walking towards the well in a daze.Seeing that he was about to hit the bucket by the well, Song Cheng hurried up and grabbed him.If you take a few more steps, you will fall into the well!

"Why did you get up so early?" Gu Lousheng rubbed his eyes to see Song Cheng clearly, then splashed water to wash his face in a daze, and woke up after being swished by cold water.Shaking his head, he looked at Song Cheng who was still standing behind him: "What's the matter?"

"Last night I drew up a few dishes and needed some ingredients. I went to the kitchen just now to check, and some are not available. I plan to go to the town to buy some later." Song Cheng said seriously, Gu Lousheng thought about it, and nodded: " You wait for me for a while, I will go get the silver, and I will go with you after breakfast."

Now in the hearts of several people, taking care of Gu Changxin is the top priority.Gu Lousheng turned and went into the house, and Song Cheng also turned and went into the kitchen to make breakfast.

Breakfast was simple porridge and side dishes, as well as slices of steamed buns that Song Cheng fried for Gu Lousheng for the first time.Gu Linsheng, Chang Xin, and Douer had never eaten steamed buns made in this way, so they were very curious.As soon as Song Cheng served it, each of them added another one with chopsticks, trying something new.

"You can sandwich side dishes with steamed buns, so you won't get bored." Watching Chang Xin eat each mouthful of steamed buns and side dishes, Gu Lousheng reminded him by poking him with his elbow.Gu Linsheng was very happy at the side, smiling from ear to ear, wrapped Gu Changxin in his right hand, and said to him: "You don't know how long it has been since Chang Xin had a good breakfast. Except for porridge, he eats nothing but porridge." Throwing up, I can eat enough today."

Gu Lousheng turned his head to look at his elder brother with disgust, and then looked at Chang Xin who was concentrating on eating. His expression seemed to say, Douer's show of affection is not enough, you guys come too? !I'm an old man, don't be ashamed!

At the dinner table, Song Cheng talked about his plan to go out to buy ingredients, Gu Linsheng also agreed, gave him some silver taels, and seemed in a good mood: "Let Lou Sheng go with you, I heard Lou Sheng said that you are not a local, It's more convenient to go together." Song Cheng nodded, led the carriage with Gu Lousheng, and rushed to the market.

The two walked around the market and bought a lot of things.After this circle, Song Cheng deeply understood that Gu Lousheng was at a loss for everything related to the kitchen.Last time I saw Gu Lousheng's ability in business, but when he was picking ingredients at the market, he didn't say a word.

The vegetables picked out by the farmers in the mountain village were fresh and cheap. Gu Lousheng followed Song Cheng and was basically responsible for paying the bill, because he couldn't even tell the difference between the vegetables picked by the peddler and those from the farmers. "The products sold by traders are much more expensive than those sold by ordinary farmers. They go to the farmers to collect them at a low price, and then sell them in the market, earning a difference." Gu Lousheng nodded. He understood the truth, but he Still don't know how to tell the difference!How do these dishes look like!

"Does your husband and sister-in-law eat seafood?" When Gu Lousheng was rubbing his chin and thinking about how to distinguish between a hawker and a farmer, he was suddenly patted by Song Cheng, and then he came back to his senses: "What did you say?" So Song Cheng helplessly repeated what he said just now.

"Chang Xin likes to eat, but Anping is not along the coast. Every time there are fishing boats coming back from Anqiao, and then transported over, he can eat." Chang Xin is spoiled by Gu Linsheng, no matter how expensive it is. I was willing to buy it back for him to eat, but having said that, it was indeed a long time before I could eat it.

"Wait here for me, I'll go shopping." Song Cheng told Gu Lousheng to stand still, while he went jogging for some reason.After waiting for a long time, Song Cheng didn't come back, and Gu Lousheng didn't dare to rush to look for it, so he smiled and handed a copper coin to an old lady selling candied haws skewers next to him, bought a bunch of candied haws and silently gnawed on it.

When Song Cheng came back with a lively crucian carp and a few bundles of scallops, facing the autumn wind, he saw a touch of blue standing there in the endless stream of people, squinting his eyes, raising his head, smiling and waving at him. Candied haws skewers.

After so many days of getting to know him, Song Cheng found that Gu Lousheng had too many characteristics integrated into him. Sometimes he inadvertently showed his childishness, which made him laugh so much that his heart warmed up.Song Cheng didn't know what this feeling was, he always felt that when Gu Lousheng smiled at him, he felt happy all over.

"What did you buy?" Gu Lousheng bent down to look at the things in Song Cheng's hand, and took a bite of candied haws: "You can also cook seafood? It's rare, as far as I know, few people in Anping can do this Yes. Chang Xin made it himself once, but it turned out to be too fishy." Suddenly, an idea formed in his mind, if Song Cheng did a good job, then he could try to launch new dishes in the restaurant, this is another business opportunity .

Song Cheng looked at Gu Lousheng biting the candied haws once before his face became serious, and guessed in his heart that he probably thought of something related to business again.He also makes people feel particularly mature only when he has something to do with business, and the rest of the time, he is just a person in his normal twenties.

"Let me carry one for you." Gu Lousheng was about to reach for the fish, but Song Cheng stepped aside and handed him the bundles of vegetables: "You are the boss, I'll just do it."

"The old man and the boss have already said that they don't treat you as an outsider. It's better for you to treat me as an outsider. Give it to me, and I'll carry it for you." Gu Lousheng said vaguely with a candied haws in his mouth, and said to Song Cheng rolled his eyes and insisted on taking the things in his hand.

"Fish is restless, it will splash and your clothes will be dirty and fishy." Song Cheng smiled embarrassedly. He has been told several times not to treat himself as an outsider, and he is always worried about this and that. I really think too much up.

"How does this thing burn?"

"Which one do you say?"

"Those scallops in your hand..."

"You'll know when you go back and have a look."

"Tsk, it's still a secret!"

"Ha ha……"

The horse-drawn carriage whipped away passed by the field, and there was uninterrupted laughter and laughter, blowing away in the wind.
