Old Hsu Kee Noodle House

"Why windows?"

"It's convenient to jump off the building."

"Brother Xue...you like telling jokes a lot lately..."

Xue Lingyu smiled faintly at him,

"Really? I hope it's a joke, too."

"Goodbye then."

Xu Zhenbiao stepped out of the car, but the people in the car said,

"If you can wait for me, I'll pick you up after get off work."

Xu Zhenbiao turned around and ran back, tears streaming down his face,

"Brother! You are really my dear brother!!"

"what's for dinner."

"Um……"

Xu Zhenbiao frowned,

"There are shrimp and rabbit meat in the refrigerator, and I haven't finished eating yesterday's dishes, so let's eat the leftovers?"

Xue Lingyu didn't speak, but looked at him quietly.

"Cough...how about I make a dry pot shrimp rabbit?"

Xue Lingyu nodded in satisfaction and said,

"Remember to wait for me."

Then he closed the car window, put the gear into gear and drove away without looking back.

Xu Zhenbiao rubbed his chin, looked up worriedly at the Yanyu Pavilion he had dreamed of,

"I'll see where the windows are for a while..."

The whole building of Yanyu Pavilion looks a little "Yanyu" style. The outside looks like antique decoration, wooden window fences and roofs, dark colors and exquisite carvings, and the gates are carved one by one. The decorative beams decorated with small seal characters all reveal a strong ancient atmosphere. Outside the building, there is a streamlined and wavy "small pool" about 30 meters long. There are two stone bridges and a wooden pavilion on it. The water in the pool is not deep. , you can see cobblestones paved one after another, shining in the sun, it should be because of summer, there are patches of water lilies floating on the water, and the flowers are swaying at this time. The fence separates the building from the outside world, and unknown vines grow lushly on the fence.

Xu Zhenbiao was standing under the big arch, looked up, and saw a tall plaque across the roof, the three big characters of "Yanyu Pavilion" were very grand, the security guard at the reception desk next to him saw him standing, and asked,

"How many gentlemen?"

Xu Zhenbiao frantically straightened his clothes, stuttering a bit,

"I, I, I work..."

"Oh, the new chef, right? Sister Qin told me yesterday, you come with me, and I'll take you to Sister Qin's place first."

The little security guard should not be very old, he looks really good, wearing a security uniform on him looks very stylish, and his figure is very good, Xu Zhenbiao secretly followed behind him, once again lowered his head to check whether his clothes were tidied up ok, heart said,

"Fortunately, wearing this suit, the security guards are like models. If I want to wear my own suit, others will think I am a coolie..."

The little security guard led him into the main entrance of the building. As soon as he entered, there was a faint scent of incense. There was a large incense burner on the high front desk facing the main entrance. With white smoke.

Xu Zhenbiao looked around and found that the environment on this floor was particularly good. The entire hall was planted with dwarf bamboos, green and emerald green spaces. He stretched his neck to look at the space closest to him. The antique tea table and chairs are obviously not a place to eat but to drink tea.

"How can this bamboo be kept alive?"

He whispered puzzled.

"Sister Qin, the new chef has arrived."

The little security guard talked to a woman in a royal blue cheongsam at the front desk. Xu Zhenbiao was stunned when he heard the words.

I don’t know where I heard that cheongsam can only be worn by plump women to have that kind of charm. It’s too thin to support it and too fat to cover it, so he looked at the woman in cheongsam in front of him, and felt a sudden feeling A deep sense of approval is really unbearable...

The woman named Sister Qin is actually not very fat, but there may be a little more flesh on her stomach, and the cheongsam is so stretched that it is about to explode, so she looks unattractive.

Sister Qin nodded and walked over, smiling very decently, her face was painted with light makeup, but she was pretty.

"I'm the manager of the lobby. You can just call me Sister Qin. The boss of the administration has something to ask for leave today. I have your entry form here. You fill it out first, and I will take you to the kitchen."

"Thank you, Miss Qin~"

Xu Zhenbiao remembers Xu's mother's teachings and learns how to deal with things!Be smiling!To learn to... flatter...

twenty two----------------------

Xu Zhenbiao almost knelt down, sincerely, he has never been so flustered in his life, even if he owed the "huge debt" to Xue Lingyu, he was not so flustered, it was nothing more than asking for money, the big deal is that Dad Xu took it Bangzi beat me hard, and tomorrow will be sunny after our rough skin and thick flesh.

But it is different now, the scene in front of him made Xu Zhenbiao a little dizzy, just now he just went to look at the antique decoration, then tiptoe signed the so-called entry form, and frantically rummaged through the ID card he carried with him. While waiting for Sister Qin to prepare the trial contract, he also tasted a cup of jasmine tea with a bitter fragrance. It’s so cute, it’s pretty good up here, he still kept his momentum, drank tea pretending to be calm, waited for the contract to come, looked at it pretendingly, and signed his name with a pen, although his name Those three ugly words, he wanted to go home and practice for two or three years before saying it, but at least he still knew what he was doing here today.

After all this was done, Sister Qin put away the documents, and then took him to the kitchen on the third floor, saying as she walked,

"The first floor is a leisure area, the second floor is a restaurant, the third floor is a private room and kitchen, the fourth floor is an office area, and the top floor is an open-air garden."

She paused, seeing that the young man Xu Zhenbiao looked quite honest, she kindly reminded,

"Don't go above the third floor when you have nothing to do, especially the open-air garden."

Xu Zhenbiao didn't dare to ask why, what Xue Lingyu said flashed through his mind, swallowed his saliva, and nodded vigorously.

Sister Qin continued,

"I will take you to meet the head chef first, and then he will assign you the master who will take you."

Xu Zhenbiao's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt nervous about meeting his dream lover, a superstar in the world,

"Sister... who is the head chef?"

Sister Qin felt a lot better when she heard such a handsome guy in his early twenties calling her sister, she said with a smile on her lips,

"You are also a chef, you should have heard of his old man's name, Mr. Fu?"

"Mr. Fu?"

Xu Zhenbiao thought for a while, then took a breath,

"Fu...Fu...Fu...Fu..."

Sister Qin saw that his eyeballs were about to pop out, she stood stiffly at the stairs, and said with a smile,

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Fu is very nice."

"Wow..."

He was just shocked. You have to know what the word "Fu" is in the world of chefs, just like Jackie Chan and Andy Lau in the entertainment industry. How famous is this "Fu" standing on top of the world?He is not a chef of a national brand, but a chef of an international brand!It was in the news a few days ago that Chef "Fu" was invited to go abroad to participate in the World Top Chef Exchange Conference every five years, not to meet friends and exchange experience, but to be nominated to be the new World Top Chef Exchange Conference The president of the conference just showed up, and he has such an arrogant temper. When he went, he said forcefully that he didn't have the time to be such a non-existent president. He came today to see the fresh avocados on the market. And salmon, take some back home to practice skills for a few apprentices, and see who makes delicious salads.

Xu Zhenbiao cried when he saw the news at that time. Your old man has to go abroad to buy ingredients to eat a salad! !This exchange conference, where chefs from all over the world are trying to apply for participation, can't compare to your avocados and salmon! !What's more, the president of the previous conference called you by name and asked you to become the president of this session. After being rejected by you, you can only tearfully re-select the president. ah! !

The clamor in Xu Zhenbiao's mind fell to pieces the moment he stepped into the kitchen of Yanyu Pavilion, kneeling on the ground with a plop.Is this the kitchen?Is this the kitchen in Xu Zhenbiao's thinking?Wow, this white as new marble glazed table! !Wow, this wood-carved counter with dark coffee! !

What's this!What's this!Why are there lush flowers and trees in the kitchen?Wow, why is there such a big tub of shallots here?What is this?coriander?Shouldn't these small ingredients be kept in the refrigerator obediently?Why do these green onions, ginger, garlic and parsley grow so vigorously in such a one-meter-wide small flower bed by the window?

He had just finished being shocked, and when he looked up, he forgot to blink.

Is this really the kitchen and not someone's living room?Still such a luxurious living room...

I saw that on the side of a two-person wide road, there are square kitchen counters divided by glazed tables, about eight or nine square meters. Each kitchen counter has supporting equipment, such as washing table, stove, and chopping board. , freezer, oven, blender, cooking machine... In short, this kind of kitchen is not like a kitchen at all! ! !Supermarket, right?Only electrical supermarkets will have such a complete set of equipment, right?

Sister Qin led him to the innermost room, pointed to the innermost room with a door and said,

"The one on the right is the cold room, and the one on the left is the break room."

The door of the lounge was open, and voices could be heard from inside. Sister Qin took the lead in knocking on the door before leading Xu Zhenbiao in.

Inside is a fairly ordinary lounge, with a
