On a fake variety show

As soon as Chu Yu returned, the old housekeeper said truthfully: "Sir, according to our investigation, Young Master Xiao never touched the spring water with his ten fingers since he was a child, and he lived a life of opening his mouth with clothes and hands. He is pretty good at tasting the taste." Yes, I'm afraid you asked him to cook..."

It is not easy for him to say that what is difficult for others is difficult.

Bai Zhuohua was sitting by the window of the study on the second floor, his eyes were facing the direction of the Xiyuan loft, the old housekeeper talked for a long time before he said: "I saw it."

The old butler didn't understand and looked at him suspiciously.

Xu Shi was in a good mood tonight, but Bai Zhuohua actually opened his mouth to explain: "Of course I know that his ten fingers are not in the sun. I am very unhappy that he came in with such an identity. If I am unhappy, he should not be happy either."

The old butler: "..."

What do you mean, why does this identity make him unhappy?He couldn't understand, and wanted to ask, but his master had no intention of continuing, so he could only quietly back out after tidying up the room.

............................................................................................................

On the other side, Chu Yu was lying in the attic room after returning to Xiyuan.

Cooking is really a big problem, and it's not a test of talent. Chu Yu lay on the bed and sighed. He really can't cook. He is definitely No. 1 in frying the kitchen.

Although he thought before going in that he would definitely be made things difficult for him and he had to pay attention to his speech, but when he encountered food, he forgot what he was going to do, and he regretted it.

Since Bai Luming brought him back, he seldom went back to the Baijia villa. He said that he had classes and needed to sleep out, but everyone who understood knew that he was making excuses. Generally, there are not many courses in colleges. Going to university in the city, it is not a big problem to find a suitable time to come back during the day. His style of being a young man is that he can't bear to be crowded with others, so he rents a house outside to live alone.

Chu Yu wanted to laugh when he heard the news, he understood in his heart, Bai Luming couldn't squeeze in with others, he wanted to live with Xiao Nanyue outside, he wanted Bai Zhuohua to make things difficult for him There's no need to tell him, one he can't help; two, if he doesn't do anything else, it's estimated that when he comes back, his work is due to me, and it is estimated that his affairs will almost be ruined.

As the old saying goes, it is better to tear down a temple than destroy a marriage.

Forget it, it’s not for him but for himself, if you encounter any problems, you will solve them, Chu Yu comforted herself to sleep well, and the next day, she went to ask the servant in Xiyuan about the location of the kitchen, but the servant shook his head and said no You can use the kitchen, not just the kitchen, everything Chu Yu in Xiyuan cannot be used casually. Before Bai Luming left Xiyuan, Chu Yu was not allowed to touch everything in Xiyuan.

Chu Yu felt that Bailu Mingzhen was not a fucking thing, not only a scumbag but also a bad brain, it was fine if he didn't come back, what does it mean not to let him touch it?Who is he looking for like today?

Chu Yu didn't understand, so he hung out with the servants. He was sweet-mouthed, good-looking, and good-natured. He was very good at hanging out with people in Xiyuan when he came here. After asking, he realized that Bai Luming was very possessive. He doesn't like others to touch his things. Even if he doesn't want all the things in Xiyuan, he won't allow others to touch them. He would rather destroy them than give them to others. So for the good of Chu Yu, it's best not to touch his things, and The servant also told him that unlike the head of the house, Bai Luming has an outgoing personality, and Bai Zhuohua is his uncle who occupies Bai Zhuohua. Many servants are respectful on the surface, but in fact they don't know how to talk about him behind their backs.

After hearing this, Chu Yu felt that this little dude was really miserable. He even boasted that he would be the head of the Bai family in the future. In the end, this group of people stayed in the Bai family because of Bai Zhuohua's face and the high employment fee. After leaving the Bai family, Bai Luming is really nothing.

Chu Yu didn't want to cause trouble to the servants, so the kitchen in Xiyuan couldn't be used anymore.

The West Court cannot be used, the only thing left is the East Wing and the main house. The main house has Bai Zhuohua, and the East Wing is used to entertain guests. He originally wanted to put his last hope on the East Wing, but ended up getting frustrated. The East Chamber thought he was in the way and refused to let him into the kitchen. After all, they actually disliked the man Bai Luming brought back. Chu Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the main house again. .

He walked around the main house, intending to ask the housekeeper for a favor to give him a space to train, but the servant said that the housekeeper had gone out to accompany her husband to socialize, Chu Yu had no choice but to come out of the backyard when he was feeling regretful A woman around 65 years old, she was neatly dressed, with a kind face, and she looked very kind. Chu Yu had a good impression of this woman at first sight.

This woman turned out to be an old cook who lived in the backyard of the main house and was in charge of Bai Zhuohua's three meals a day. On weekdays, when Bai Zhuohua didn't cook, he obeyed the old cook's arrangements.

When Chu Yu was observing her, the woman was also observing Chu Yu. She had heard that Mr. Xiao had brought back a sweetheart, but she had never had the chance to meet her. This time, she had the opportunity to see her and couldn't help observing. The young man's lips were red and his teeth were white, not stained with makeup , a pair of fox eyes are seductive and sharp, and it seems that it is not easy to get close to, but the clean breath on his body is easy to attract others' favor. The woman talked to him when she saw that she liked it, and asked: "Little master, are you here to find someone in the main house?" Mister's?"

Chu Yu was about to leave, when she heard the conversation, she pointed to herself and said, "Me?"

The cook nodded, and Chu Yu came over, stood with her under a gazebo, and explained the purpose of coming to the cook, saying that he did not come to find their husband, but their husband gave him a problem, and he is here to solve it now. Cook: "..."

The cook felt that the young master was a bit pitiful, and she knew that his husband had bullied others and made things difficult on purpose.

In Chu Yu's heart, Bai Zhuohua is now a bad mother-in-law who wants to ruin people's marriage. He sighed and said truthfully: "If I don't agree to come down, your husband will tell me to leave immediately. I agree, but it is actually a lie. Eat me!" It’s possible, but it’s really a big problem, I don’t know how to cook, so I might really feel sorry for your little gentleman and disappoint your master.”

Chu Yu's heart is bleeding, this meal can't be done, let alone the final payment, and I don't know if that little dude will want to go back...

Really sad.

Chu Yu chatted with the cook for a while, and the sullenness disappeared a lot, so she planned to say goodbye to him, but the cook stopped him and said, "Don't you just leave if you don't want to work hard? If you don't know how to cook, you can learn." , do you back down without any regrets if you don’t fight for it at all?”

Chu Yu: "..."

He sighed and said: "It's not that I don't work hard, it's that I can't meet your master's requirements even if I try hard, even if I study hard now, let alone so many questions on the table, I may not be able to do even one. If I It would be great if you can cook a dish that can captivate your husband's taste buds and make him praise and cannot live without..."

In the world where he was Young Master Chu, he had never cooked any decent dishes to feed his family's Jinzhi's stomach, and there was no way to attack him until now.

"Who said no," the cook laughed, "You don't, Auntie does."

As soon as the old woman finished speaking, Chu Yu turned her head in surprise: "Really? Your master cooks so well, is there any dish that he can't forget?"

The old woman nodded, very proud.

Chu Yu said weakly: "Auntie, it's not that I give up on myself. I really haven't cooked. I can recognize the dishes and seasonings, but I just recognize and eat them. I have never handled the dishes, let alone cooked them. I have never done washing or cutting, so don't be angry if you accept an apprentice like me."

Still very self-aware.

He saw that the woman was a little old, and he was afraid that his stupidity would make people angry, that would be a crime.

The woman smiled: "Don't worry, young master, what I'm teaching you is not any really difficult dishes, but the dipping sauce, which is my favorite."

Chu Yu looked at her suspiciously, and the cook explained to him that it turns out that Bai Zhuohua pays attention to imitating and improving dishes, and innovates dishes on the basis of the original ones. He is modest and eager to learn, so he can always learn from some master chefs. He has excellent culinary skills, and there are innovations, but not many, it's not that he can't, it's that he doesn't have time.

The cook was in the Bai family when the old club was alive. She is good at cooking some home-cooked dishes, which just suits the appetite of the old club. He even approached him, intending to buy her formula at a high price, but the cook refused, she said that his secret recipe was only passed on to the hostess, and when she was about to die in the future, he would give the secret recipe to Mrs. Bai. Bai Zhuohua was very sorry, Said that the wife would not have one, the cook smiled, "There will be, there will always be someone waiting to meet you somewhere in this world at a certain time, and there will definitely be, sir."

After the old woman finished speaking, she was unwilling to give it.

Bai Zhuohua researched it by himself without forcing it. However, this seasoning is not only marinated but also boiled. There are too many ingredients in it. If the proportion is slightly wrong, it will not be able to produce the taste he wants. He usually has tedious work and is not in good health. , although the taste and the approximate amount of ingredients can be calculated, it is not easy to calculate the ratio and cooking time, so this matter has been delayed.

Chu Yu said: "Didn't you want to pass it on to Mrs. Bai? Is it appropriate to give it to me now?"

"Of course it is suitable, and there is no one more suitable than you. I am willing to give it myself." The old cook explained, "I am old, and I don't know if I can wait until the day my husband marries his wife. , I can’t go back on my word now, people have to be responsible for their own words in their whole life,” she looked at Chu Yu, and said with a smile: “I like Master Xiao very much, it’s fate, although I may not be able to wait until Mr. But I can at least see the appearance of the little master with you, anyway, it is to please, to make the husband happy, you have learned this secret recipe, and you must be as happy as the husband."

Before Chu Yu could speak, the old cook took him by the hand and walked towards the backyard.

The backyard is the territory of the old cook. When she went there, there were servants who greeted her. The old cook smiled and had a friendly attitude. She took Chu Yu's hand and entered the kitchen. Got a lot of good food.

Chu Yu smiled and said: "Thank you, auntie, enough to eat, I have enough to eat."

"It's okay, it's not worth anything, as long as you like it." The old cook was very enthusiastic.

Chu Yu smiled and said thank you, but he was disrespectful and didn't say much, and accepted the cook's kindness generously.

The cook grinned, and wanted to talk to Chu Yu, but suddenly forgot what his name was, a little confused: "I am old and my memory is not good, just now you told me what your name is?"

"It's okay, it's not my aunt's fault that my name is awkward." Chu Yu looked around, making sure no one came over and said, "Auntie, you can call me Xiao Yu'er when there is no one, my family They all call me that, Xiao Yu'er is easy to remember."

"Xiao Yu'er?" The old man smiled and looked at Chu Yu: "Is it a nickname?"

Chu Yu: "It's a nickname."

"It's really spiritual." The old man praised: "No wonder I like it just by looking at it."

Chu Yu smiled and ate.

The old man liked such a temperless young master very much. While doing things, he chatted with him and said, "Xiao Yu'er, do you want to see your husband when you come to the main house? If you want to see me, you can buy and sell the old man, and ask him to save face and see you." .”

"No, no, I just came to the kitchen to practice my cooking skills." Chu Yu bit the cat ears that the old cook gave him, and he ate the freshly cooked snacks with relish. He said, "Auntie, thank you for your willingness." Teach me this, are you here at night?"

"Should be there until nine o'clock, what's the matter?" The cook took out a piece of black paper from a dark compartment under a pile of firewood in the back kitchen and handed it to Chu Yu, saying, "This is the secret recipe. Come to my place to operate."

Chu Yu sincerely thanked her, and said: "Auntie is my great benefactor. I brought some things down from the mountain. They are all wild goods. They may not be very valuable, but they are good medicinal materials for health. I give them to you. , you can make up for it when you are free."

The old cook waved her hand: "How can I do that, I don't want you to repay me by giving you this."

Chu Yu: "If you don't want it, I will give you my heart. If you like me, Auntie, don't refuse me. Repaying kindness is an education you have received since childhood."

He said it like this, and the cook couldn't refuse anymore, she said: "You just asked me if I have anything to do this evening or this afternoon?"

"Well, there's one more thing. I can't stay at Bai's house all the time. I have work to do outside, and I have to go to work in the afternoon."

The cook wondered: "Are you a teacher?"

Generally, only teachers can have such time.

Chu Yu took the tremella soup handed to him by the cook, drank it Gululu and said, "Forget it, but I just went down the mountain, and I'm currently in the trial period, so I can only count as half a part-time job."

Cook: "Hello, teacher, no wonder I thought you had a different temperament when I saw it just now. This profession is very good."

Chu Yu drank the white fungus soup, and then smiled and thanked the old woman after drinking it. He said that he must wait for him at night, and he will not come back too late.

The old cook agreed, no matter what Chu Yu gave her was in her heart, she really didn't dislike it, but felt that it would be a waste of money for him to do so, so she quickly took out the vacuum bag and prepared some small meals for Chu Yu that could be eaten on weekdays. snack.
