"Those who make the braised beef, come and get the food. The hind leg of the beef has been cut into three sections for your convenience. There are 121 pounds in total. Send it to your chef immediately."

Jiang Hexi was so busy that her butcher knife kept slicing. She weighed the cut sirloin and put it in a bag. She pointed at the tomatoes that the aunt had just brought up and said to the person who came up:

"Forty pounds of beef brisket, fifty-three pounds of tomatoes, take them all, next one."

Jiang Wenjing walked slowly to the long table and stood still.

Jiang Hexi was busy clearing the chopping board. Without even looking up, he reached out and said, "Bring the list here."

"Little sister, what should I do if I don't have a list?"

"Second brother, why are you here?"

Jiang Hexi looked up and saw Jiang Wenjing. His surprise lasted only three seconds before his face fell. He waved his hand mercilessly and told him to go away:

"I'm busy preparing the ingredients here. Please stand aside and don't delay my work."

Jiang Wenjing stood there with his hands in his pockets and refused to leave. He asked with a serious expression, "Did you have breakfast?"

"have eaten."

"Did you have lunch?"

"Didn't eat."

Jiang Hexi chopped the butcher knife into the chopping board and threatened him fiercely, "Second brother, if you continue to make trouble like this, don't blame me for not letting anyone down."

"That's perfect. I haven't eaten either. Let's have a good lunch together, brother and sister."

Jiang Wenjing ignored her resistance, tore off her apron without saying a word, and forcibly took her to the side, saying dissatisfiedly:

"There are so many people here, won't it be possible to work without you?"

Jiang Hexi was glad that there was no live broadcast during this period of time, as the PD was assigned to the open-air square to help, otherwise there would have been a live broadcast accident on her side.

Seeing that he was angry, she tried to keep things quiet and said, "Brother, I'll have lunch with you."

The ingredients for Qianjia Banquet are strictly supplied according to the chef's menu.

Each dish has a supply range of ingredients. Too much or too little, or the wrong ingredients are provided, it will affect the preparation of a series of subsequent dishes.

If we fail to serve the fifteen home-cooked dishes according to the pre-ordered menu and cause dissatisfaction among tourists, apologizing will be a small matter, but damaging the reputation of Qianjia Banquet will be a big deal.

That's why Yan Jie arranged his own people to take charge of every key link.

Jiang Hexi was forced to leave the stall and had to call the aunt over to cut the meat and prepare the side dishes.

She told the aunt to serve the dishes according to the list, and only after the aunt repeatedly expressed her understanding did she dare to let go and leave.

Shi Jianan came over with a lunch box, "We have some big pot dishes cooked in the open air square, try them and see how they taste."

Jiang Hexi obviously didn't expect him to be here.

She cut Jiang Wenjing into pieces in her heart and decided to teach her brother a lesson. Then she took the lunch box from Shi Jianan and said politely:

"Thank you, Mr. Shi."

Three people sat in a row under the banyan tree, each eating a lunch box.

The big pot dish is boiled beef, and the bottom of the lunch box is covered with a layer of blanched lettuce. The beef drizzled with hot spicy oil is fresh, fragrant and smooth, and the rich taste immediately amazes the taste buds.

Shi Jianan couldn't help but praise: "I haven't eaten such a delicious stir-fry in a long time."

"Because we use firewood to cook in the stove and use a big iron pot to cook, the food tastes like home."

Jiang Hexi introduced them:

"The seven chefs we invited this time are all veterans of preparing village banquets in the surrounding area. When cooking in front of the villagers, they must show their best skills and must not let themselves be outdone by their peers. Otherwise, they will not be able to hold their heads up high in the village in the future."

“Whoever came up with this idea must have a lot of business sense.”

Jiang Wenjing put down the lunch box and said, "Gathering seven chefs at once to prepare the Thousand Family Banquet will invisibly create competition and stimulate their inner potential, which will raise the quality of the dishes they make to a certain level."

"Yanjie."

After Jiang Hexi said this name, Shi Jianan suddenly felt that the beef was not fragrant at all.

"Second brother, why are you with Mr. Shi?"

"Grandpa heard that I was coming over. It just so happened that Mr. Shi had an RV, and it was the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, so Grandpa asked us to come over together."

Jiang Wenjing's words were reasonable and he completely cleared himself from the matter.

More and more people are queuing in front of the stall.

Jiang Hexi listened to the aunt's order for side dishes with concern, glancing over from time to time.

When she saw the auntie taking a piece of beef ribeye to make beef meatballs, she immediately put down her lunch box, stood up and walked over:

"Aunt, this piece of sirloin is for frying steaks. It's clearly written on the list. They want to make beef meatballs. You just need to cut a few pounds of front leg meat."

The aunt hurriedly responded, "I know."

Yan Jie happened to come to her at this time, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Hexi said worriedly: "Don't cut the beef randomly, otherwise the following dishes will not be able to be cooked at all. If not, let me do it."

Yan Jie reached out to stop her, "It won't take a while, let's eat lunch first."

Jiang Hexi looked at the plastic bag in his hand and asked, "Is this the work lunch you brought for me?"

"Why, have you eaten?"

Yan Jie guessed something as soon as he saw her greasy red lips. He then glanced at Jiang Wenjing and Shi Jianan who were sitting under the banyan tree, and his thoughts were confirmed on the spot.

"eating."

"Let me see what you ate."

Yan Jie walked over with a lunch box and greeted Jiang Wenjing and Shi Jianan politely.

He glanced at the boiled beef calmly, then sat down next to Jiang Hexi, took out the lunch box and handed it to her:

"Would you like to see what today's working meal is?"

Jiang Hexi was extremely tempted by him.

He held the lunch box forward and said, "Open it and take a look."

She couldn't help but take the lunch box and opened the lid. Inside was a whole pork elbow with soy sauce. Just by looking at the shiny crispy skin, she could imagine the soft and tender texture that melted in her mouth.

Yan Jie broke the chopsticks and handed them to her, "This is your working meal, try it and see how it tastes."

Jiang Hexi took a bite of the pork elbow, and the aroma of the sauce filled her mouth. It was so crispy, tender and fragrant that she couldn't stop eating it.

Yan Jie opened his lunch box and found two pork elbows inside. He said politely:

"I have an extra pork elbow here, would you like to try it, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Wenjing wanted to decline his kindness, but he directly clamped his elbow over. The enthusiasm that was delivered to his door made it impossible for him to say no:

"Thank you."

The brother and sister were chewing their pork elbows when they suddenly heard Yan Jie speak apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shi, how could I forget about you? I will make up for it by giving you the pork elbow at the Qian family banquet tonight."

"Mr. Yan, you are too polite. I don't eat pork elbows." Shi Jianan rejected him sternly.

Jiang Hexi felt that there was something wrong between the two of them. When she was wondering if it was her illusion, Yan Jie did not let her go and said:

"Sister Xi, which of the two dishes, boiled beef or pork elbow with soy sauce, is better?"
