Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

Tian Zehua said that he had handed over the kitchen to He Yuzhu.

After all, I feel sorry for the food on the table. The whole family is looking forward to having a delicious meal during the New Year.

He came in and went out several times in a row.

Every time I was scared, I would be shocked by He Yuzhu as soon as I entered the door. I tried a few flavors and they all tasted pretty good.

Finally, Tian Zehua was too lazy to go back and forth like this, so he walked in and praised He Yuzhu directly: "I knew my vision was right, you kid always likes to learn."

"When others were playing, I saw you were pretending to move your hands."

It is precisely for this reason that Tian Zehua is willing to devote so much to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu scratched his head and smiled: "Master, I follow you just to learn skills. If there is no opportunity, I can only practice it in my imagination."

"Don't say a few words to me, you'll get carried away. This dish you cooked is pretty good for now, but a chef can't just cook a few dishes. Keep going."

He Yuzhu nodded: "I know, Master."

Tian Zehua then found a seat and sat down, staring at He Yuzhu the whole time.

"I say, Lao Tian, ​​you are such a piece of shit. Your apprentice finally came to your house to play, but you forced him to work."

As soon as Tian Zehua sat down, he heard his wife Yu Hui's insults.

Then He Yuzhu saw a fat woman walking in with a very rosy face.

"Master's wife." He Yuzhu called sweetly.

"I'm telling you, did you hear me? They only have a few days off, and you're asking them to work."

Yu Hui was still indignant.

"Master's Wife, please don't say that about Master. Master just wants to give me a chance to practice cooking and test my skills."

He Yuzhu's words made Yu Hui feel a little strange.

After all, the timing doesn't match. He Yuzhu has only been following Tian Zehua for a few months. Generally speaking, can a chef be able to take charge of the cooking in such a short time?

Tian Zehua said impatiently: "Why do you, a woman, care so much?"

As he said this, he pulled Yu Hui out, leaving He Yuzhu alone in the kitchen.

After the two people left the kitchen, Yu Hui looked at Tian Zehua.

"Boss, what's going on?" It was not the first time that Yu Hui had seen Tian Zehua's apprentice, but she had never seen an apprentice who could become a chef after just a few months of training.

To see what Tian Zehua meant, we also need to examine He Yuzhu.

"Of course, I want to see my apprentice's foundation. You don't know that his current condition is better than some people who have studied for several years."

"Really?"

"No."

Tian Zehua said proudly.

Yu Hui subconsciously looked towards the kitchen.

She had thought that this new apprentice was not very good before, but she didn’t expect that he was so talented as a cook.

"I also saw that there are a lot of ingredients today. If he can pass my test, I can let him be the second chef. Then he won't have to cut vegetables and prepare food anymore, and can earn money directly."

"You can see that he has a half-grown child and he has to take care of this little sister. He has to make money as soon as possible."

Tian Zehua's words made Yu Hui nod.

This poor He Yuzhu is such a poor guy.

As a master, it is normal for Tian Zehua to consider him.

Tian Zehua has been a chef for so many years, but he still can't tell the level of others.

Even if it doesn’t meet the standards of the second chef, the taste won’t be too bad.

He Yuzhu wanted to seize this opportunity to make all the dishes he had learned from Tian Zehua.

Tian Zehua is best at Sichuan cuisine, but Sichuan cuisine is also what he is not good at.

It’s no use being familiar with other cuisines, because Tian Zehua will actually doubt what he cooks.

After all, he is the top chef in Hongbinlou, and his specialty is Sichuan cuisine. If he makes other dishes, Tian Zehua will probably become suspicious.

He now relies on Tian Zehua so that he can live a better life every day.

The relationship with Tian Zehua should be closer.

Sichuan cuisine emphasizes spiciness, but the food must also be kept fresh and tender.

He Yuzhu noticed all of this, and when he brought out his dishes, Tian Zehua walked forward excitedly.

He could smell the scent from a long distance away, it was really good.

Not to mention the color of this dish, it is really in line with the style of Sichuan cuisine.

It looks very appetizing, and all these delicious dishes are made by He Yuzhu.

An apprentice who has only studied for a few months is actually better than someone who has studied for ten years.

He Yuzhu saw the surprise in Tian Zehua's eyes, but he did not feel proud.

"Master, please give it a try."

He Yuzhu handed the chopsticks to Tian Zehua and stood respectfully aside.

Wait for Tian Zehua to taste them one by one, and then tell him the taste.

When Tian Zehua saw his apprentice’s excited expression, he also felt a little excited.

After tasting it, he gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up.

"Zhu Zi, your talent is much greater than what Master thought. I didn't expect to let you cook. I just wanted to see if you can be a second chef."

"It has reached the level of your master."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu denied it in a panic: "Master, please don't embarrass me. I wish I really had that ability."

"I've been eating your food all the time. If I could taste as good as you, I'd go set off some firecrackers right now."

He Yuzhu's words made Tian Zehua very happy.

Or, "Master, you are not kidding. You have already reached the level where you can become a master. When the time comes, go out and practice. Your control over ingredients and heat will only improve."

"But you should also know that Master can teach you some things directly, but there are some things that you still need to do yourself. Only when you do it yourself will you know whether it is good or not."

“There is no fixed routine for many things. You have to do it with your heart and feel it to do your best.”

"Take the simplest ingredients for example. When you watch the chef in a restaurant cook a dish, it's just one step, and you will do it differently depending on the dish."

"You have learned very well, you are talented, and you are hardworking. If this is not considered a master's degree, then what is it?"

Tian Zehua praised He Yuzhu a lot.

He Yuzhu nodded a little embarrassedly: "Master, I will definitely listen to you and continue to improve."

"Master has passed your assessment. Master will tell Manager Gu that you will be the second chef."

"Master."

He Yuzhu's eyes were full of gratitude.

"Don't get excited. Master, seriously, if you were out there, you would be the head chef of a small restaurant."

"Yeah." He Yuzhu replied.

Tian Zehua patted He Yuzhu on the back and said, "But this is just the beginning. If you want to reach a higher position, you still need more efforts."

"Master, I understand."

He Yuzhu said to Tian Zehua respectfully.
