Wishing Restaurant didn't want to explode

When Yu Yu was wondering how to get Liao Chu's birthday, he heard some teachers in the office suddenly scream.

"Damn it! Have you read the first trending article in the talk?"

"I'm watching!"

"It really shocked the whole family!"

Teacher Zhang held up his mobile phone and said tut-tsk:

"This time I really fell to the altar, and I lost all my face."

Yu Yu didn't pay much attention to it at first, but they were too involved in the discussion, and couldn't help but turn on the phone to watch.

The hot searched headlines have already been stamped with the word "explosive" in bright red, and the dazzling color indicates how popular this news is.

After clicking in, I found that it was indeed worth the pomp.

The one that got blown up was the hottest traffic floret in China in the past few years. She can sell out of stock on the whole network if she wears anything she wears casually. She can become a well-known tourist attraction when she goes to any place.

However, just a few hours ago, she was revealed to have faked her age!

A full six years younger.

I don't know where the person who exposed her background got so much evidence, even a copy of the original household registration book.

It is definitely immoral and even illegal to steal other people's privacy without permission.

But in front of the iron-like evidence, that little flower was directly crucified, and there was no possibility of turning around and making a sophistry.

It has been more than three hours since the news broke.

Xiaohua herself, her team, and her agency collectively pretended to be dead.

The only ones who are still fighting frantically on the front line are her diehard fans.

However, as time passed, the attitude of Xiaohua and her team also made the hearts of fans a little bit colder.

People in the rice circle all the year round know:

Neither black nor hot, and whenever there is a chance to refute in those black materials, the artist will not let it go.

Yu Yu sighed, and then...

There is no more.

The entertainment industry was too far away for him to resonate at all.

I heard a teacher say with emotion:

"Oh, I liked her for a while, no wonder I feel that my face has collapsed very quickly in the past two years..."

I thought it was a failure of plastic surgery before, but I didn't expect it to be due to my age!

"Didn't she just join the crew to film? It seems that part of the scene is filmed, and she has to go to Qingjiang City... Do I have to reshoot now?"

"The crew is going to cry to death."

"I'm afraid the future will be ruined?"

Another teacher said: "Nine times out of ten, I think the age on the encyclopedia has already been changed. If there is no definite information over there, I would not dare to do it so quickly."

"Hey, not necessarily," the teacher who spoke at the beginning sounded very experienced, "Nowadays society is so tolerant of artists, and it's just changing the age. In the end, it's immoral and deceitful at best, but in fact it's also No crime.

She is now the company's cash cow, and the company will definitely protect it. Let's keep a low profile for a while, and when the limelight passes, she can do some charity or something, and she will be cleared up..."

Everyone thought it made sense.

But Yu Yu's focus is no longer on this.

It was as if a small light bulb lit up in his head, and the hemp ball that had been troubled for a long time suddenly found the end of the thread.

age?

Wikipedia? !

Yup!

Why didn't I think of it?

I didn't expect it!

Mr. Liao is not an unknown person, there must be information about him on the Internet!

Thinking of this, Yu Yu felt relaxed.

After searching the Internet, Liao Chu's encyclopedia page popped up, and the personal information column clearly stated his birthday:

12 month 18 day.

Isn't that half a month later?

Yu Yu secretly said that it was dangerous, if he hesitated, he might miss it.

Next to the birthday column, there is also a photo of Liao Chu.

The one that was interviewed back then.

It was taken about three or four years ago. The people in the photo are still a little young, but their eyes are calm enough.

The second half of the encyclopedia is the personal resume.

Liao Chu's background, growth process, and achievements have all been drawn into a timeline.

It clearly stated that he was abandoned together with his sister, and the address of the orphanage was also there.

Reminiscent of the Kangming Welfare Institute that he had been to before, and letting the current owner of Liaoji Restaurant go there, Yu Yu felt as if a thorn was suddenly pricked in his heart.

Did he ever struggle to survive like the children of Si He and Li Ruo?

Now there are them in the Kangming Orphanage, so what about the Orphanage where Mr. Liao used to live?

Yu Yu reopened the page, entered the name of the orphanage, and found that it no longer existed.

About seven years ago, the city where the orphanage was located was re-divided from the surrounding big cities.

In the end, it became a separate district and merged into the higher-level city.

In terms of future development prospects, it is definitely better to be in a big city.

But in this way, some previous administrative agencies and related supporting facilities must be changed.

The orphanage where Liao Chu was born was among them.

Because the administrative unit was downgraded, there can no longer be a welfare home in that place. After the relevant personnel were removed and merged into other areas, the welfare home itself was also dismantled.

No wonder Mr. Liao has done public welfare with him for so long, but he never mentioned it. He wants to go back and have a look.

But the old photos of the orphanage can still be searched online.

Dilapidated, desolate, and short are all synonymous with it.

Even the Kangming Welfare Institute is not as good as...

Looking at the old building, and then at the residential area that replaced it, Yu Yu felt very uncomfortable.

It's as if... traces of a person's past have been roughly and forcibly erased.

He never had parents, and the orphanage might have been the only place where he felt a sense of belonging.

but now……

The only place is gone.

When people encounter difficulties, they instinctively want to seek comfort.

And this comfort largely comes from a fixed residence.

Yu Yu could hardly imagine how he felt when Liao Chu first entered the society, had no relatives, and encountered many difficulties.

He also felt that God was unfair countless times and made himself like a wild child wandering around.

But thinking about it now, even that kind of injustice may be something some people can't ask for.

Although his parents don't want him, they still have relatives after all.

No matter how disgusted everyone is on the surface, after all, they are not short of food and clothing, and they did not kick him out...

Looking at the timeline, Yu Yu suddenly felt a little emotional:

The 25 years of a person, who have experienced many ups and downs that ordinary people can hardly imagine, have been compressed into a single line in this way.

There is a sense of absurdity in black humor.

When Yu Yu got off work in the evening and went to Liao Kee Restaurant for dinner as usual, he saw the wishing vat that he had seen countless times again.

He didn't believe in vows and prayers.

But at this moment, he wanted to make an exception.

Yu Yu took out a coin from his backpack, wiped it, and put it in carefully.

He recalled the actions of others praying before, put his hands together, closed his eyes, and said silently in his heart:

"I hope that the rest of Mr. Liao's life will be safe and happy, and everything will go well..."

Not long after Liao Chu picked up Guoguo, he was talking to someone in the lobby, but when he looked up, he saw Yu Yu making a wish outside.

He knew what the other party was thinking, and he didn't believe in any gods at all.

Just feeling strange, I suddenly heard the system clang forcefully:

"Detected a strong power of faith!"

"Stimulate rare gain buff!"

Liao Chu was stunned.

Yu Yu making a wish?

It even succeeded.

What was it that made him suddenly so devout?

Later, when Yu Yu opened the door and came in, Liao Chu couldn't help asking, "Have you made a wish?"

Yu Yu exhaled forcefully, as if he had completed some important ceremony, "Yeah!"

"What wish?"

Liao Chu was rarely curious.

Yu Yu smiled, "It won't work if you say your wish."

Liao Chu silently glanced at the door, "It will happen."

Then he saw that Yu Yu seemed to be very happy, both eyes were bent, "I think so too."

The indoor lighting fell on his eyes, like two shattered lights.

Liao Chu was slightly taken aback.

The other party's emotions at this time are too heavy.

But it is not dull, but has a different kind of vitality that breeds hope.

Fascinating.

"Come in, Guoguo is waiting for you to eat."

He turned sideways and gently supported Yu Yu's back.

He didn't know what Yu Yu experienced today that made this relationship so bright.

The unprecedentedly bright golden color is like the scorching sun, shining brightly.

Not dazzling, but strong enough to brew a deep red in the center.

Very sweet.

Sweet as persimmons in autumn.

Chinese people pay attention to "eating in season", that is to say, what kind of food should be eaten according to the season.

Because in a sense, melons, fruits and vegetables are born in response to the changes of the four seasons, and are the result of extracting the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon.

Therefore, for chefs, the best products among the ingredients must be seasonal dishes.

And off-season vegetables are a bit against the sky.

It's edible, but not really delicious.

It is the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. When it comes to vegetables, Chinese cabbage cannot be avoided.

There is a folk saying that "cabbage can be used as a hundred vegetables".

It is the delicacy of cabbage.

If you say that it is cheap, it can make such a luxurious dish as boiled cabbage:

But if you say it’s noble, it’s a rotten street, and it costs a few cents a catty. It’s the favorite home-cooked vegetable of the people who live the most difficult life.

It seems to be able to match with anything, without being obtrusive at all. It neither steals the limelight from others, but also easily kills a way out, quietly showing its own flavor.

It's amazing.

Just like the strength of character of the old Chinese, they don't look like mountains or dews, but when something happens, they don't bend.

Some time ago, Liao Chu actually entered a group of good ones.

He pickled two jars of sauerkraut and two jars of spicy cabbage, and prepared to eat them slowly.

The rest will be sold daily.

It is indeed a serious dish to make today.

Boiled cabbage.

Just looking at the name, you might think that it’s just a few slices of cabbage thrown into the boiling water.

But in fact, this dish can be called a luxury.

Its mystery lies in the clear soup that looks like boiling water.

The first step in cooking is to hang the broth.

Just look at the materials it needs to know a thing or two:

Old hen, old fat duck, first-class ham, ribs, scallops and so on.

Anything in it can be taken out alone to make a few dishes with quite a lot of noodles.

But now, they are all willing to be green leaves.

The recipe for this dish is extremely cumbersome, Liao Chu started preparing it a few days ago, but it was not officially served until tonight.

It is not enough to boil the above-mentioned ingredients into the broth, because the broth is still white at this time, and the bottom is invisible. There are a lot of impurities in the stirring, and it looks a bit messy. It is far from the boiling water mentioned in the name. far.

Therefore, it is necessary to use minced chicken breast meat repeatedly to absorb impurities. After at least three or four times, the broth will gradually become clearer.

At this time, the broth is rich in aroma, mellow, sweet but not greasy, and it is the best product for nourishing and nourishing health.

After a few days of hard work, the soup combines the essence of all ingredients.

And those high-end ingredients that were once "invincible" have now become hollowed-out kits, empty and tasteless, so they have to be discarded.

Even the cabbage floating in it is exquisite.

We can only choose the tender yellow cores of the innermost few slices of Chinese cabbage in season, and we have to choose one or two slices as big as a child's palm from a whole cabbage.

Slightly blanch them with boiling water to remove the peculiar smell of the vegetables, and then use the prepared boiling water broth to pour them repeatedly until they are fully cooked.

Until this time, all the "accessories" are ready.

The manpower, material resources and financial resources consumed are countless.

Under normal circumstances, a big dish of this level requires a chef and several assistant chefs.

Several people cooperate with each other, so as to ensure consistent energy and standards.

If Liao Chu's physical condition had not been adjusted to the best recently, no chef would choose to cook this dish based on the current kitchen staffing alone.

Tired, too tired.

Not only the physical fatigue, but also the tremendous mental pressure of having to keep your full attention.

If there is a mistake in the middle, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

It wasn't until a few minutes ago that the boiled cabbage was ready.

This is the first time he has completed such a difficult dish independently.

The great joy and sense of accomplishment swept away the exhaustion of the past few days.

Liao Chu confirmed once again that he was fine.

All-round good.

From now on, nothing can stop him.

Liao Chu's life these days is like walking a tightrope, and the four help cooks are also having a hard time.

They are allowed to watch, but not to interfere.

It's because I can't help you.

With their current level, when they observe it, it is like standing at the foot of a mountain and looking at the peak. They can only see a point surrounded by clouds and mist, but they are completely unable to figure out the process in the middle.

From material selection to technique, to the subsequent fire control and detail adjustment, every step is the ultimate test for the chef himself.

difficult!

too difficult!

It is so difficult that they doubt their IQ and talent more than once:

Is my brain still there?

Otherwise, why can't it stand at all!

The four of them even pooled their money and secretly tried it secretly.

But the end result is that not only the hands have not learned, but even the eyes and brain have not learned...

After spending a lot of money to buy ingredients but getting nothing, the four of them were inevitably a little frustrated when they went to work again.

Liao Chu glanced at each of them, and the hearts of those four people started beating wildly.

The boss doesn't talk much, but occasionally looking over it makes one's liver tremble.

He seems to know everything, but also seems to know nothing...

When the four of them were feeling anxious, they heard Liao Chu say calmly:

"Don't try to run until you learn to walk."

Wasting food is punishable by God.

The four of them thumped in their hearts, "Yes."

Liao Chu checked the small soup cups that will be used later one by one, "Cooking is like building a building. The most important thing is to lay the foundation. After the foundation is laid, it will be easy to think of skyscrapers in the future."

The soup cup holding the hot soup should be scalded beforehand to keep it at the same temperature as the soup.

Otherwise, when the dishes are served later, the cold soup cup will absorb the temperature of the dishes in turn, which will greatly reduce the taste.

Hu Hai couldn't help but secretly raised his head, and gave him a look almost admiringly.

The boss didn't scold us?

It is hard for ordinary people to imagine that the world of chefs is actually a strictly hierarchical place.

Teacher inheritance, sect, care about every detail.

When he worked in other places before, there were clear regulations on what level the back kitchen could do and what he could do.

He also tried to leapfrog like he did now, but later the chef found out, and the next day, he scolded him bloody in front of everyone.

"start."

Liao Chu didn't say anything more, and just a few words lightly revealed the matter.

Soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers.

But there was no casual success either.

In his view, chefs must have the spirit of assiduous study and self-motivation.

These four people are not bad.

As soon as Mr. Ji entered the door today, he found an oval wooden sign on the wall.

Golden.

Juxtaposed with "Roast Suckling Pig", it is higher than all the ordinary long wooden signs, and there is a sense of gold that should not be disturbed by strangers in a silent way.

At a glance, his eyes widened.

Boiled cabbage.

Is it the boiled cabbage he knows?

Like the roast suckling pig, there is no price tag on this dish.

But those who know how to do it know everything.

"Four servings."

Mr. Ji didn't ask directly.

As long as the chef's craftsmanship can be trusted, the dish is worth the money.

He directly called the family members one by one.

You can eat boiled cabbage at your doorstep, what a blessing!

Who is to blame if you don't come to eat!

With boiled cabbage, will other classic models be far behind?

Thinking of the better life in the future, Mr. Ji even began to think about whether his parents, father-in-law and mother-in-law could all move to Qingjiang City.

When people get old, they should keep healthy.

He wasn't the only one who saw this menu. Those who knew how to do it immediately began to estimate their financial strength in their hearts, and those who didn't know how to do it immediately took out their mobile phones to search.

The originally quiet restaurant suddenly became lively.

Someone dared to ask the price.

Well-trained waiters and amiable said four figures.

Everyone who pricked up their ears to eavesdrop gasped.

sorry!

I overstepped!

Yu Yu looked at the cup on the table, a little confused.

He didn't order it.

A few cabbage leaves quietly float on the clear soup, like tender willow leaves in spring, gentle and warm, which makes people feel happy when they see it.

The faint fragrance spread out along with the curling water mist, and swirled into people's nostrils.

Without smelling it personally, it is really hard to imagine that the world still has such a fragrance!

Rich and light, sweet and refreshing...

It seems that all the words to describe food can be used again, without going too far.

Yu Yu secretly sent a message to Liao Chu, "I didn't order boiled cabbage."

He hasn't been paid this month's salary yet!

Really a little cash-strapped.

Liao Chu's answer was only a few words, "A gift from a friend."

Yu Yu's eyes widened slightly, are friends treated so well?

Through the glass wall, all his expressions fell into Liao Chu's eyes.

The latter suddenly felt in a good mood.

Yu Yu looked at Guoguo on the opposite side.

The little girl didn't know what the small soup pot at hand meant, but said happily: "Mr. Yuyu, why don't you eat it? This soup is sweet and delicious."

Yu Yu thought, indeed...

Tomorrow is the weekend, Qianqian was picked up by Ms. Huo early in the morning, and the family of three was going to travel outside.

It happened that they were waiting for the food to be served there, so Qianqian used the children's phone to contact Guoguo:

"Guoguo, what are you eating today?"

Guoguo glanced, "Uncle said, it's Chinese cabbage."

After a pause, he added: "Soaked in boiling water."

Liu Xi's voice came faintly, "What Chinese cabbage soaked in boiling water?"

Boss Liao wouldn't abuse children like this.

Wait a minute, what the hell?

Boiled water, cabbage?

Boiling cabbage!

Ahhhhh!

Why should we travel today!

Isn't Qingjiang City fun?

Still boiled cabbage is not good!

Accompanied by Liuxi's wailing that could be heard across the phone, Yu Yu slowly picked up a spoon and took a sip with an almost pious attitude.

Not a drop, really, not a drop!

Even though he was mentally prepared, the deliciousness of the soup was still beyond his imagination.

Fresh, is fresh!

This unique Chinese culinary vocabulary is best interpreted here.

And although the few cabbage leaves kept their shape intact, they were already ripe.

With just a slight sip with the lips and teeth, it turns into vegetable puree and flows into the stomach together with the broth.

Yu Yu let out a breath slowly, and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

too delicious.

From top to bottom, the viscera are delicious like Shu Tan.

He couldn't help but thumped his thigh hard, and the curl at the end of his hair also jumped slightly.

He De He Can!

How can I have such a nourishing friend!
