From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 32 The birthday banquet that made the whole village give a thumbs up (please follow up)

Liu Jiasheng was called by his son and rushed over from home in a hurry.

We arrived at the birthday banquet here.

What Liu Jiasheng didn't expect was that everyone in the village gathered here gave him a thumbs up.

"Uncle Jiasheng, you are really good at hiring such a great chef from the city."

"Grandpa Jiasheng, the chef you hired is really amazing."

"Yes, those chefs are so good at their craftsmanship, and the dishes they cook are so delicious."

"I've been to many big banquets in the past few years, but I've never seen such a great chef. The knife skills and the fire skills are really beautiful."

"Uncle Jiasheng, our village has become more prosperous this time. From now on, when we go out and talk to other villages, we can straighten our backs."

"That's right, what kind of chef did they hire for the big banquet? How can it compare with the one hired by Grandpa Jiasheng?"

When Liu Jiasheng heard what the villagers said, he thought about it for a while before he finally understood.

It must be that everyone has been around the chefs cooking and saw the skills of those chefs, so they all praised them.

Facing the compliments from the whole village, Liu Jiasheng grinned and said: "Hahaha, young and old, you have a good meal and drink at noon today. My dad's birthday is to be lively and inviting everyone to dinner. Naturally, I want to invite the most important person." Good cook.”

After greeting the villagers, Liu Jiasheng hurried to his father's side.

"Dad, how's it going? Are you satisfied with today's arrangement?"

The old man of the Liu family immediately said: "You have the nerve to say it, but let me ask you, why did you tell the chef that I asked them to make nine-turn large intestine and stir-fried kidneys?"

Liu Jiasheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then quickly said: "Dad, this is not something you often talk about at home. You said that when we had a banquet at Yanxi House, the nine-turn large intestine and stir-fried kidneys were still fresh in our minds. Later, we talked about it. I have no chance to go to Yanxi Lou, and I have never had the nine-turn large intestine and stir-fried kidneys that are better than Yanxi Lou.

So this time I invited these chefs from Yanxilou to come here, just so that you can taste Yanxilou’s nine-turn large intestine and stir-fried kidneys again. "

The old man of the Liu family looked unhappy: "Since you asked me to cook it, why do you still use my name? It makes it seem like I, an old man, deliberately embarrass a group of young chefs."

Liu Jiasheng said: "Dad, this must be either your intention or my intention."

While talking, Liu Jiasheng also said to Li Huidong: "Chef Li, this is really not what my father meant. If it is difficult for you to cook those two dishes, it's okay not to cook them."

When Li Huidong and Feng Zhengming heard this, they looked at each other.

Li Huidong said with certainty: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, since we are here to take over your birthday banquet, we will definitely cook it for you as requested."

At this moment, for Li Huidong and Feng Zhengming, this is not a matter of two dishes.

This is a matter related to the face of the chef from their Yanxi Building.

Especially when they think of their master who has returned to his hometown, the two brothers cannot embarrass him.

Feng Zhengming said: "Grandpa Liu, don't blame Mr. Liu. Since Mr. Liu gave us the money, we will definitely cook the food well."

The old man of the Liu family said: "Okay, since the little chef agreed to cook it, Jiasheng, you have to pay for those two dishes after the birthday banquet is over."

Liu Jiasheng naturally agreed: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely not treat the chef badly."

The old man then said to the villagers: "Today is my little old man's [-]th year. I didn't expect that my sons and daughters would make such a big show for me. I would like to apologize to everyone here for disturbing everyone, and asked everyone to come and give me this." Happy birthday to the little old man.

Everyone is here for today’s birthday banquet. The big table has been set. Every household has to come to me. No gifts or money are allowed. Being able to come is to give face to me, a little old man. "

With the words of the old man of the Liu family, naturally the whole village will give him face.

Under the greetings of Liu Jiasheng and his brothers and sisters, people in the village soon came to the big place one after another, and each found a seat to sit down.

The second daughter of the Liu family looked at the scene and leaned next to her eldest brother Liu Jiasheng and gave a thumbs up secretly. “Brother, it’s up to you to entertain the whole village at once. This time, our family is famous in the whole village.”

Liu Jiasheng said: "My parents are old and we are working hard outside. Who can come back often to take care of us? So we have to build a good relationship with the villagers and let everyone enjoy the benefits. In the future, when we are not at home, the villagers will also help take care of my father." mom."

When the other children of the Liu family heard what their eldest brother said, they all felt that he was right.

When all the men, women, old and children in the village were seated, Feng Zhengming led Zhang Lei and Yang Peng to start serving food.

The first thing to be served is naturally the various cold dishes prepared in advance.

And just the cold dishes served on the table have already amazed everyone in Liujiacun.

Feng Zhengming and the others spent one morning cutting and matching all the cold dishes they brought, and each plate was beautifully arranged, quite like a big restaurant in the city.

Some old people in the village looked at the dishes on the plate and praised Liu Jiasheng.

"Look, someone is inviting someone to a grand event, and they invited this chef to serve up a dish. How beautiful it is."

"It's just that it's different from those people who make banquets in the countryside."

"In other words, he is a really skilled chef."

"That's right, those in the countryside are just a group of hot laborers at best."

When the old man of the Liu family saw the dishes on the table, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "The skills are really unique to the chefs of Yanxilou. When I went to Yanxilou back then, the dishes they served were all so beautiful."

Liu Fangyou, who was sitting next to her grandparents, saw the beautiful presentation of the cold dishes on the table and couldn't help but look at Feng Zhengming who was busy over there.

The dishes on the table today were in stark contrast to the lunch boxes she saw Feng Zhengming selling that night.

Liu Fangyou never expected that Feng Zhengming, a man with such skills, would sell lunch boxes at the train station.

Shortly after the cold dishes were served, hot dishes were also served one after another.

Among them are pre-braised pork ribs, braised pork, and braised big rooster.

There are also various steamed vegetable bowls, which are also very beautiful.

Especially when the Sixi meatballs are served, the rich meaty aroma instantly attracts everyone's attention.

The old man of the Liu family reached out and gently pressed the meatballs with a spoon, and saw that the large Sixi meatballs on the plate slowly spread out effortlessly.

"Okay, really good. This is the authentic Sixi meatballs."

Seeing his father's appearance, Liu Jiasheng was a little curious: "Dad, can these Sixi meatballs be authentic or not? Aren't they all big meatballs?"

The old man could tell at a glance that his eldest son didn't understand, and he deliberately asked this question to make his father look embarrassed.

The old man of the Liu family simply climbed up the ladder given by his son and began to explain to the elderly people in the village at his desk.

"Although they are both meatballs, there are still differences. In ordinary small restaurants, the Sixi meatballs are hard when they are made. Not to mention they can be spread out by pressing them with a spoon. Some of them may need to be cut with a knife.

Look at this Sixi Meatballs. They fall apart with just a touch of pressure, and soup comes out of the meatballs. This is a truly good Sixi Meatballs.

Come and try it while it's still hot. I guarantee you'll find it delicious. "

After Mr. Liu's introduction, everyone reached out and scooped up a piece with a spoon to try it.

　Two updates sent today. Thank you again for your love and support for this book. Thank you everyone for reading, voting and tipping. Let’s talk about why the protagonists in the author’s books are all named “Feng”. This is because when I was a child, I loved the author’s grandmother’s surname Feng the most. My grandmother’s family used to be a family of cooking people, and the people in my grandmother’s family were all very good at cooking. Although my grandmother passed away many years ago, the author is still I miss my grandma very much, so I decided to give the novel’s main characters the surname “Feng”.
