Integrity Pension System

When Zhang Xiaoran returned to the yard of his home, the yard was almost tidied up. The elder sister and elder brother-in-law were sweeping the ground with a broom...

"Eldest sister, elder brother-in-law, you are tired enough today, put aside all these tasks, and I can do it myself later."

Looking at the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law who were busy, Zhang Xiaoran hurried over and said.

Whether it's an engagement or an engagement, it's basically done with the help of the elder sister and elder brother-in-law, but Zhang Xiaoran himself has become a hands-off shopkeeper, and doesn't have to do anything.

"No, the cleaning will be finished soon, Xiaoran, our husband and wife will go back tomorrow, and now you are also engaged, and you have a woman to take care of you, and you are considered married. Your brother-in-law and I are also relieved. From now on, you and Qianqian Get along well and live your life well.”

Zhang Shufang rubbed her waist slightly, looked at her younger brother with a happy smile, and said with a relieved expression.

Seeing her younger brother getting engaged to Zhang Qianqian this time, Zhang Shufang breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that her younger brother would be a bachelor for the rest of his life.

This will finally be reassuring.

And Zhang Qianqian, the sister-in-law, she is also very satisfied.

Although she is younger, there are advantages to being young. At the very least, she doesn't have to worry about the danger of having children. She married a 50-[-]-year-old woman, and Zhang Shufang was really worried about whether she would be able to have children.

"Sister, you are going back, do you want to stay for another two days?"

When Zhang Xiaoran heard that the elder sister and elder brother-in-law were going back, she felt a little bit reluctant.

The elder sister and elder brother-in-law have only been here for a few days, and they are about to go back. I haven't entertained them well, but let them work hard on my engagement and engagement.

"I can't stay any longer. There are still many things in the hotel. Your nephew and his wife are too busy. If you have time, remember to take Qianqian to Hangzhou!"

Zhang Shufang said with a smile.

Now is the best time of the year for restaurant business, if I don't go back, my son and daughter-in-law will definitely be too busy, and my grandson and granddaughter have to be responsible for picking up their grandson and granddaughter when they go to school.

Knowing that the eldest sister and the eldest brother-in-law are in a hurry to go back, Zhang Xiaoran is not used to the sophistication of the world that repeatedly keeps him, so he thought for a while and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, you have been here for several days, and you are the ones who cook for me. Cook a few dishes, let's have a good drink."

Zhang Xiaoran didn't know what he could do for his sister and brother-in-law, so he could only cook a few delicious dishes to express his gratitude.

"Okay, I haven't tasted my younger brother's handicraft yet, Zhiguo, let's try Xiaoran's handicraft tonight."

Zhang Shufang said happily.

"Do you want me to help?"

Li Zhiguo was a little worried about his brother-in-law's cooking skills.

Although there are not many opportunities to get in touch with this brother-in-law, but from his wife's mouth, he knows that he is not a master who can cook.

"No, I can handle it by myself."

Zhang Xiaoran shook his head and said.

After speaking, Zhang Xiaoran walked towards the kitchen.

"I'll go and have a look. If there is a situation, I can help." Li Zhiguo was still a little worried about his brother-in-law's cooking skills, so he told Zhang Shufang and followed him to the kitchen.

He didn't disturb Zhang Xiaoran's cooking either, Li Zhiguo just stood at the door of the kitchen and watched Zhang Xiaoran operate quietly, thinking that his brother-in-law's cooking skills should not be too bad, otherwise the meal tonight would be difficult to swallow.

Li Zhiguo is also very confident in his cooking skills. Although his cooking skills are not as good as those of the masters of various cuisines, they are definitely much better than ordinary chefs. Otherwise, his restaurant business would not be so good in Hangzhou.

Li Zhiguo estimated that his culinary skills should soon catch up to the level of a senior chef, only the senior chef certificate is missing.

Zhang Xiaoran grabbed a mandarin fish swimming in the water tank, put it on the table and patted it lightly with a knife a few times, directly making the fish faint.

This is very important. When cooking fish, the fear is that the fish will not be fresh. To make the fish taste the best, you must ensure that the fish is still alive when it goes into the pot.

The few slaps on the fish just now are to cut off the fish's nerves, so that the fish will not struggle when it shaves its scales, and it will not let the fish die.

Then pick up a kitchen knife and quickly shave the scales of the fish. When cooking the fish, the scales must be shaved clean. First, it looks hygienic. Second, the fish scales are not good for eating the fish, and it is not good for the smell to enter the fish.

"Yeah..."

Li Zhiguo stared at Zhang Xiaoran's fish-killing movement with wide eyes. This movement is so graceful, the one-stop movement looks so natural, and the movement is so fast. Anyway, Li Zhiguo himself will never be able to do this. Zhang Xiaoran's knife skills Definitely much stronger than myself.

Is this the brother-in-law that my wife said he couldn't cook?

Did my wife say the opposite? ? ?

Li Zhiguo was stunned...

Zhang Xiaoran, who was engrossed, naturally didn't notice his brother-in-law's bewildered expression, but quickly cut open the belly of the fish and cleaned out all the internal organs of the fish. Although most of the internal organs of the fish are still edible, they must be well eaten at night. It was a rare waste for Zhang Xiaoran to entertain his sister and brother-in-law, throwing away all these fish internal organs.

Quickly wash the cleaned fish with tap water on the tap, and put it directly into the pot where the oil has been boiling for a long time. Zhang Xiaoran is going to make braised mandarin fish. The temperature of the oil in this pot is very important. If the oil temperature is low, The fish tends to stick to the pan.

Zhang Xiaoran lifted the pot and kept shaking the fish body so that the whole body of the fish could be evenly heated...

"My brother-in-law is very good at cooking. I have been cooking for so many years, but I can't reach his level. Even if I cook for another 20 years, I still can't reach his level. ah!"

Li Zhiguo watched his brother-in-law's fish-burning action, and couldn't help feeling secretly in his heart.

Regardless of the taste of the fried fish, Li Zhiguo felt inferior to the series of actions of catching the fish, shaving the scales, killing the fish, cleaning, cooking and so on just now. Such great cooking skills.

Originally, Li Zhiguo didn't understand that Xu Yuandong's majestic national chef crushed Zhang Xiaoran in terms of status and status, but when he faced Zhang Xiaoran, he was very respectful, just like a student respecting a teacher.

This made Li Zhiguo and his wife really confused.

Now Li Zhiguo figured it out, why the national chef master was so respectful to his brother-in-law, because he was conquered by his brother-in-law's cooking skills.

Before Li Zhiguo finished expressing his emotions, Zhang Xiaoran finished cooking the "Braised Mandarin Fish" and poured it on the plate. Then he picked up a white radish that he had cleaned himself, and quickly carved a few sweet-scented osmanthus flowers on the fish with a knife. On the body, the overall look is so beautiful.

"It's so beautiful, this sculpture is amazing!"

Li Zhiguo couldn't help but praise.

Regardless of the taste of this fish, just looking at how beautiful this dish is, it makes people look so high-grade, and makes people have an appetite just looking at it.

"Okay!"

Zhang Xiaoran turned to look at her brother-in-law, and said modestly.

What is the concept of great perfection in cooking, that is, as long as there are eighteen martial arts related to cooking, Zhang Xiaoran is in the realm of perfection.

To put it simply, as long as there are eighteen martial arts related to cooking, Zhang Xiaoran has reached the ultimate level, and there is no way to improve.

After speaking, Zhang Xiaoran started to work on the second course, which was going to be "sweet and sour pork ribs".

This "sweet and sour pork ribs" is a representative traditional dish among sweet and sour dishes. I especially like this dish, "Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs" has a taste in all major Chinese cuisines.

In the shock of Li Zhiguo, in less than an hour, Zhang Xiaoran made eight dishes and one soup, a total of nine dishes, namely "braised mandarin fish", "sweet and sour pork ribs", "homemade tofu", "stir-fried pork with green peppers" Shredded", "Fried Vegetables", "Scrambled Eggs with Chives", "Fish-flavored Pork Shredded", "Braised Eggplant" and "Tomato Egg Soup".

These few dishes are relatively common home-cooked dishes. When Zhang Xiaoran made them, not to mention the taste, the color and aroma made Li Zhiguo and Zhang Shufang, who was attracted by the aroma, intoxicated.

Not to mention eating, just looking at it gives people a feeling of "this dish is only in the sky, but it is rare in the world and you can smell it".

"Brother, is this really your dish?"

Zhang Shufang couldn't believe what she saw.

From childhood to adulthood, when did my younger brother cook, he couldn't even cook the simplest fried eggs, but now?

Just watching him cook these delicious dishes, his culinary skills are several mountains higher than his own husband's.

Could it be that in the past ten years, my younger brother has changed his career as a chef?

"That's right, my brother-in-law has been staring at me, and I can't do anything wrong!" Zhang Xiaoran said with a smile.

"Xiaoran did it all."

After saying affirmatively to Zhang Shufang, Li Zhiguo turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaoran and praised: "Xiaoran, your cooking skills are really good, I think even the master chefs of the country are not as good as you."

Li Zhiguo said with emotion.

After all, Li Zhiguo has cooked meals for his whole life, so he naturally has that vision.

As far as my brother-in-law's smooth and smooth movements in cooking, this culinary level is incredible, even the master chef of the country can't match it!

"Brother-in-law, you are too flattering, and I can only know a few dishes." Zhang Xiaoran said modestly.

"Brother, when did you learn cooking and which master did you learn from?" Zhang Shufang asked curiously.

Zhang Xiaoran didn't want to lie to her own sister, so after thinking about it, she said: "Sister, this is my secret, can I not tell it?"

"Okay, the dishes made by you have hooked my gluttons, let's eat!"

The younger brother is in his forties, and he has his own secrets. As long as it is not a bad thing, Zhang Shufang will naturally not go to the bottom of it, so she changed the subject.

"The dishes should be enough!"

Zhang Xiaoran looked at the servings, eight dishes and one soup, thought for a while and said.

Mainly because of the engagement today, Zhang Xiaoran drank a lot of wine, but didn't eat much food, and now he is very hungry.

With his current appetite, he could eat these eight dishes and one soup by himself, but he didn't want to look too abnormal in front of his sister and brother-in-law, so he made these eight dishes and one soup.

"It's enough, it's enough, don't do it anymore, it's too much to waste!"

After Zhang Shufang finished speaking, she went into the kitchen and took out the dishes.

The three of them worked together, and soon eight dishes and one soup were served on the stone table under the ginkgo tree.

In the current weather, sitting under the ginkgo tree for dinner, you can enjoy the shade, and you can also watch the scene of the mountains in the evening.

"what……"

Just as Li Zhiguo was about to pick up his chopsticks and wanted to try Zhang Xiaoran's cooking skills, Zhang Shufang was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks.

"Shufang, what's the matter?" Li Zhiguo hurriedly asked with concern.

"This... this fish is really delicious." Zhang Shufang said after recovering.

"Sister, it's delicious, you should eat more."

Zhang Xiaoran said that Zhang Xiaoran's reaction to the elder sister was completely within his expectations, and the deliciousness of the dishes made by the realm of perfect cooking skills is indeed shocking.

Otherwise, Mr. Xu Yuandong wouldn't be such an old national chef master, talking to himself as if talking to a teacher, respectful, because he was impressed by his own cooking skills.

"Brother, your cooking skills are really amazing, and the dishes you cook are so delicious. This braised fish is definitely the best fish I have ever eaten."

Zhang Shufang praised Zhang Xiaoran with a thumbs up, but couldn't stop moving the chopsticks in her hands.

"Shufang, eat slowly, be careful not to get stuck in your throat, is it that delicious?"

Li Zhiguo looked at his wife stuffing her mouth full of fish, and she ate half of the fish in just a short while, so he couldn't help asking.

"It's not delicious, it's really not delicious."

Zhang Shufang said with the fish in her mouth, the way she wanted to eat all the braised mandarin fish in one bite, it was not as delicious as she said, if it was not delicious, Zhang Shufang, who has a bad mouth, would not eat well would be so exaggerated.

"It's strange to believe what you say!"

Li Zhiguo didn't believe his wife's words. His wife's mouth was spoiled by her senior private chef. If the fish wasn't really so delicious, her eating would definitely not be so exaggerated.

Li Zhiguo also picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

"This……"

Li Zhiguo was stunned, he could only feel the smell of fish in his mouth, that delicious taste directly challenged Li Zhiguo's taste nerves, it was so delicious that it almost reached the limit of taste.

"This is too delicious."

Li Zhiguo's mind immediately came up with such an idea, Li Zhiguo reacted and immediately grabbed the braised mandarin fish with Zhang Shufang.

"Eat slowly, be careful not to get fishbone."

Seeing the exaggerated appearance of her sister and brother-in-law eating, Zhang Xiaoran hurriedly said that it is easy to get fish bones stuck in their way of eating fish.

"Ah."

"Ah."

Zhang Shufang and Li Zhiguo responded with their mouths full of meat, but the movements of their hands and mouths did not change at all, as if they hadn't eaten for a few days.

"Sister, don't just eat fish, eat this piece of 'sweet and sour pork ribs', it tastes very good."

Zhang Xiaoran put a piece of "sweet and sour pork ribs" on the elder sister's bowl and said.
