Rebirth of the third-rate cook
Chapter 9
Looking at Li Mingyue with a serious face, Liu Guo got a headache. Li Mingyue is not Meng Wanyang, and he obviously can't expect such a young master born with a golden spoon in his mouth to understand what he said to Meng Wanyang, but Li Mingyue's persistence to break the casserole It's not something that can be dismissed with just one or two sentences.
You can't just say that you are reborn, right?
In fact, before he came to look for Liu Guo, Li Mingyue had already made some guesses in his heart, and he believed that his guess was pretty good. Seeing Liu Guo's embarrassed face at this time, he felt that his guess was right, so his face was full of doubts. He looked at Liu Guo solemnly.
"Are you doing it for Chen Lu?"
Liu Guo, who was still racking his brains to find a suitable reason, was taken aback when he heard Chen Lu's name, but he didn't know that his appearance in Li Mingyue's eyes was a confirmation of his thoughts.
"I knew it! I knew it! Ever since I knew you, I've discovered that you are raising Chen Lu like a son, bah, no, not just a son, you are the lifeblood, right? Why? Now You can even say no to such a promising job because of him? Is your kid out of his mind or is he out of his mind? "
"Why do you think so?" Liu Guo replied dryly.
"Nonsense! Is this not obvious? You go, whether it's a promotion test or a formal contract, who will you not give it to? Let's not say that he is also Uncle Meng's apprentice. In terms of skills alone, among this year's group of people , besides you, he is indeed the stronger one left. Isn’t he the biggest beneficiary after you leave? But I said Liu Xiaoguo, did you kill his whole family in your last life or something? You want to destroy yourself like this to fulfill Him? You don't touch your heart and think about whether he deserves it!"
Facing Li Mingyue's scolding like a machine gun, Liu Guo couldn't show any other expressions except for half-opening his mouth and looking at him dully. It was the first time he knew what he had done for Chen Lu. Bit by bit is like this in the eyes of others, and the mood suddenly becomes a bit complicated—in the previous life?Instead of killing his whole family, he gave his life. Second, he didn't expect Li Mingyue to think of such a reason, so he had a new understanding of Li Mingyue's brain power. As for the third, Liu Guo was struggling to decide if he should just accept Li Mingyue's misunderstanding...
So, as a result of thinking too much in his head, his face turned into blank eyes and a dull expression.
"Fuck, you should say something! From now on, except when you defended your boss and said a long paragraph in one breath, how can you say a long sentence? Don't you even have a sharp tongue when you leave Dongyang?" Lost it together?" Liu Guo, who had managed to get his train of thought straightened out, looked at Li Mingyue with a wry smile, "I want to say it, isn't it because I didn't catch the time!"
Hearing what Liu Guo said, Li Mingyue also realized that he had been chattering all the time, and he had completely lost the cool and aggressive temperament of the past. cough.
Taking care of Li Mingyue's face, Liu Guo suppressed the smug smile, "Okay, don't gossip, and don't get angry, I know you are complaining for me, but Mingyue, I do this The decision has nothing to do with anyone, it just follows my own inner thoughts."
Li Mingyue finally came back rationally, and did not rush to interrupt Liu Guo's words, but quietly listened to him continue.
"Indeed, I used to think about being a formal chef, the head chef of Dongyang, and even want to get the title of technician like my master in the future. I once thought that was my dream, and I pursued it desperately. But when I faced the upgrade test, I was suddenly confused. I didn’t know whether the road ahead was what I really wanted. Even if I stayed in Dongyang, even if I passed the exam level by level, so what? ?In the eyes of outsiders, I will be successful, but what can I achieve? Look at the master, who is full of skills, but he is still lonely. Although the master has not shown it at all, he is really not lonely when he is alone. Are you old? Do you really not want your children and grandchildren to be around your knees?"
"Mingyue, I'm an orphan, and my longing for home is more than ordinary people. I know it's a cowardly choice to give up a broad road, because countless people will tell me that you can have both. But, I don't want to To gamble on this possibility, you grew up in a family of merchants, you should know better than me, if I want to run towards that halo, how cautious I have to be in words and deeds, how I have to guard against others, I How to give up more to go on.”
"It's really come to this point, what do you mean by a glorious title to me? I am a cook who just loves to cook. I am now staying in such a small shop, and I am the only one in the whole kitchen. Boss It's still very relaxed, and the diners around are also very simple. I don't need to think too much, I just need to think about what dishes are cheap and good today, how to update the menu when the season changes, and whether this cooking method suits the tastes of the guests. Can’t attract customers. Every day is very simple but very fulfilling. When there is no business, even if I look at the people coming and going outside the door, I feel at ease, because this kind of life is very real, there is no falsehood, no fame and fortune, only peace of mind. I have been in Dongyang for so many years, even as a small apprentice, I have never had such a happy day."
"So, Mingyue, I left just to live the life I want to live, and it has nothing to do with anyone."
Li Mingyue listened casually at first, but as Liu Guo talked more and more, he unconsciously sat up straight and listened carefully to each word.
I don't know why, Liu Guo who said these words made Li Mingyue feel strange, as if a person he had known for a long time changed overnight. Those words seemed normal, but there was a sense of fatigue , a sense of vicissitudes.
Li Mingyue felt very uncomfortable, coughed twice, and tried to make his tone light, "Do you want to speak in such a way that you have enlightened? I thought you had an epiphany overnight, and you are about to end and escape into Buddhism!"
Liu Guo was stunned, and then opened his mouth, "How can I? A large part of the reason why I like being a cook is because I like to eat! Keeping me away from meat, wine and meat is more uncomfortable than scraping me alive."
Li Mingyue laughed along with Liu Guo "hehe", knowing that Liu Guo left Dongyang not because of grievances or other reasons, Li Mingyue was not so angry at first, after all he regarded Liu Guo as a brother, since Liu Guo said This is the life he wants, and there is no reason why brothers should not support it.
So, most of my heart was relieved, and I finally had time to look at this small shop carefully, "It doesn't look big, but it's okay to clean up. How can a big man as strong as your boss be so careful? It's your boss who takes care of it." right?"
"You really guessed wrong, there is no proprietress, only the boss."
Li Mingyue's heart of gossip came alive, and he pressed his voice and asked ambiguously, "Why is there no boss lady? Did he run away with someone or disappeared? Or did he regret having a child out of wedlock?"
Liu Guo pushed Li Mingyue's head away from him in disgust, "I don't know. Really, I didn't think you were so gossip and vulgar before."
Li Mingyue still didn't give up, regardless of Liu Guo's pushing, he desperately wanted to get closer, "Oh, don't be like this, what's the matter if you talk about it? I don't know your boss well, so I definitely won't tell others, just talk about it , to satisfy my curiosity..."
Liu Guo even rolled his eyes, "I really don't know, I never asked."
Li Mingyue pouted his crossbow, and sat down discouraged, "It's boring, you don't inquire about such gossip-worthy things, you've been working here for so long."
Liu Guo looked at Li Mingyue angrily and amusedly, "I'm here to work, not to inquire. You think I'm like you. It's obvious that I'm shopping, but I go to the kitchen all day long, saying that I'm inspecting the use of items, but it's actually I want to eat."
Li Mingyue disapproved, "Come on, I haven't been there since you left. I thought I would go to the kitchen to smell the oily smoke? That is, I would still go there when you were here. When you left, the kitchen seemed like It’s not at all human, and it’s very boring.”
Liu Guo was flattered that Li Mingyue valued him so much. Maybe he didn't leave Dongyang in his last life, so the relationship between the two of them was just like that, neither good nor bad. , It's actually the result of this kid pretending to be B, in fact, he really cares about himself.
This was the only happy thing Liu Guo found since his rebirth, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.
Li Mingyue saw Liu Guo smiling happily, and he couldn't help but feel happy too, "Oh... I haven't eaten your cooking for a month, it's strange, you are not busy at the moment, why don't you cook something for me Have something to eat?"
Liu Guo raised her eyebrows, and she picked up the menu on the side and put it in front of Li Mingyue, "Guest officer, you can order, and remember to pay when you finish eating. We don't pay on credit for small purchases!"
Li Mingyue puffed up his cheeks, "Damn it! You Liu Xiaoguo, I've been worried about you for so long, and now I'm still running all the way to see you, so why should you treat me to dinner? Are you ashamed to let me pay for it myself? "
Liu Guo blinked and smiled innocently, "Excuse me! I'm just a poor cook, but you are the young master of Dongyang, no matter how you look at it, I shouldn't be the one to invite you, right? You have the heart to exploit my meager living expenses? "
In Li Mingyue's impression, Liu Guo is a typical example of the kind who wants to save face and suffer. He never thought that he could be so thick-skinned, and he didn't think there was a problem at all. After refilling a glass of fruit and vegetable juice, I came back to my senses, muttered "Fuck", and really sat down to order honestly.
One person can't eat much, so Li Mingyue ordered fried Matsusaka meat with Pleurotus eryngii mushrooms and baked rice with cheese, and looked at Liu Guo with a half-smile, "I didn't know before that you can cook both Chinese and Western food." ?”
Liu Guo said inwardly, "Not good". I only started to learn western food skills after I officially became a chef. Before that, I only learned Chinese food. I work at "home" because I don't worry about meeting acquaintances, so I just think about it. I listed everything I was good at, but I didn't think about it. It stands to reason that I shouldn't be able to.
I kept thinking that I was careless over and over again, but my face was very calm, "I can't help it, I'm the only cook, I can only adapt to the environment, I can't be accommodated by the environment, I have to learn how to cook if the guests need it , don't underestimate my culinary talent, isn't this something you can get at your fingertips?"
After speaking, Li Mingyue didn't have time to react, so he walked into the kitchen.
Li Mingyue didn't have so many twists and turns, not to mention he had an indescribable trust in Liu Guo, and it was even more impossible to doubt his words. He enjoyed a delicious meal with peace of mind, wiped his mouth contentedly, and happily took out the money.
"I still think your craftsmanship is good, and it feels much better than what I remember. With this craftsmanship, you can be a chef without any problem, alas..." I wanted to sigh again, but when I saw Liu Guo looked at you with a smile Thinking of himself, he quickly changed the topic, "Maybe you are right. At least here, you are happy physically and mentally, and even your cooking skills have grown greatly. If this is the case, you can stay at ease. Although I don’t know if this restaurant can open. How long, but it doesn't matter, Dongyang's door is always open for you!"
Seeing Li Mingyue talking more and more pretending to be B, Liu Guo exposed him mercilessly, "Master Li, have you forgotten that you are just a small purchaser now? It sounds like you have become the president."
Not annoyed at being exposed, Li Mingyue immediately put on a foolish look, "Hey, can't you just dismantle me? Why is it fun to see me slumped?"
Liu Guo grinned and said, "It's really fun! It's like molesting a husky." After speaking, he laughed unscrupulously, and Li Mingyue laughed too.
Smiling and smiling, Li Mingyue said seriously, "Liu Xiaoguo, I'm very happy. It's really good that you are doing this now. I believe what you said. This is the life you want. At least, when I was in Dongyang, I never I've seen you play poor with someone like this, and I've never seen you smile so happily. Anyway, it's okay, just come to me if you have anything to do, and I will do my best. "
Liu Guo could understand Li Mingyue's sincerity, and patted him on the shoulder with a light smile, without saying a word, he narrowed his eyes after a pause and said, "Come to join us if you have time, don't think this store has lost your face. "
"How can you! Just because of your craftsmanship, you can't lose face!"
"Hahaha... Do I count as hugging my thigh?"
"Hug! Hug hard! My legs are thick enough! Hahaha..."
You can't just say that you are reborn, right?
In fact, before he came to look for Liu Guo, Li Mingyue had already made some guesses in his heart, and he believed that his guess was pretty good. Seeing Liu Guo's embarrassed face at this time, he felt that his guess was right, so his face was full of doubts. He looked at Liu Guo solemnly.
