Siheyuan: Pushing Huairu, the Prime Minister admits defeat

Having gained nothing and being given a cold stare by Fang Dan, Sha Zhu pushed his bicycle out of the steel mill somewhat uninterested and began to wonder whether he should wait in advance at Yu Li's textile factory.

During this period, Yu Li was obviously very interested in his cooking skills, and most of the little time they had together was spent by Yu Li asking him for cooking tips.

At the beginning, Sha Zhu was still a little secretive and was wary of Yu Li. After all, Ma Hua had been working as a handyman for him for more than a year, and now he only knew how to work in a big pot. How could he let Yu Li know everything so casually and without reservation?

But later, as long as Sha Zhu didn't talk about the Tan family's dishes, the heat, the preparation of spices, Yu Li became listless and looked extremely vulgar.

There was no other way. In order to please Yu Li, Sha Zhu finally made a decision that violated the He family's rules, which could more or less make Yu Li happy.

Although she is not able to quickly become a master chef of Tan's cuisine, Yu Li's cooking skills are still better than those of ordinary chefs who do not have a master.

This is the importance of learning from a teacher. Cooking is not like learning. As long as a person who has learned cooking skills accumulates a lot and is well-read, he or she can still be named the top scorer in the high school entrance examination at Donghuamen. But in the profession of chef, without a close master, one has no idea about the saltiness, soup ingredients, and the comprehensive combination of flavors.

What is particularly important is that not only do you need a master to guide you, but you also need to explore and practice on your own, and do everything yourself. Otherwise, no matter how much experience you have, it will still be difficult to be considered a master.

Looking back to the past, in order to become an apprentice, Sha Zhu worked hard in the largest restaurant in the capital for two or three years. With the support of the big stage of the capital, he did not have to worry about the ingredients at all. He had everything from delicacies from land and sea, deer antlers, and codonopsis. He did not have to worry about anything. He only had to find ways to make the food taste perfect and appeal to people.

It is precisely because of his experience as an apprentice in a large restaurant that Sha Zhu is able to master the cooking methods of various dishes skillfully, and even improve them to create a unique flavor.

Under the current circumstances, having enough to eat is a luxury. The original large private restaurants have long been bought out, and it is impossible for ordinary people to hone their cooking skills in large restaurants.

Therefore, Sha Zhu was not worried that Yu Li would leak the cooking skills of Tan's dishes.

After arriving at the textile factory, I waited for a while before seeing Yu Li jogging out with a hat to shade the sun and a frown on her face.

Because of the need to supply summer clothes during this period, time is tight and the task is heavy, so the entire textile factory has to work overtime in three shifts. Although Yu Li is not a very skilled technician, she is not cunning.

Therefore, Yu Li was very busy every day. Suddenly, she saw Sha Zhu waiting at the factory gate on a bicycle. She wanted to retreat, but as if she remembered something, she gritted her teeth and walked towards Sha Zhu.

"Yu Li, why are you so listless? I haven't seen you for a few days. I almost forgot what you looked like in my dreams. Come on, come on, sit in the back seat. It's hot. Let's go buy a popsicle later. Wait until it's cooler, and I'll take you home."

Sha Zhu pushed his bicycle forward with great courtesy, as if he was a cat watching a mouse.

"Silly Zhu, it's okay. I just finished my night shift and I feel dizzy and weak in my legs. Give me some time to relax."

However, Yu Li lowered her head and stood on tiptoe. She did not sit on the back seat of Sha Zhu. She just let Sha Zhu push the bicycle and followed behind slowly.

Although Sha Zhu felt strange, he didn't think much about it and continued to happily push his bicycle in front.

When Sha Zhu gradually moved away from the sight of the textile factory, Yu Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat lightly on the bicycle.

Without waiting for Sha Zhu to speak, Yu Li stepped forward and said, "Sha Zhu, you work in the canteen kitchen, and you are also the team leader of the cooking team. Can you spare some time to bring me to the canteen kitchen of your steel mill so that I can watch you cook, or you can teach me how to cook?"

"Ah? You want to go to the kitchen of the steel mill cafeteria? I'm afraid that won't work. The people in our security department are as sharp-eyed as hawks. Let alone outsiders, even if a mouse sneaks in and sees something wrong with the fur, it will probably get kicked hard. How can I be so convenient..."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu hurriedly shook his head.

After battling wits and courage with Xu Damao for such a long time, Sha Zhu was extremely perceptive about such things and immediately figured out Yu Li's true purpose.

This girl must be not satisfied with just listening, but she is troubled by the lack of ingredients, so she has set her sights on the canteen kitchen. With the ingredients purchased from the canteen kitchen, and the on-site guidance of Sha Zhu, the chef of Tan family cuisine, Yu Li might really be able to become a rare female chef.

If that was the case, then wouldn't Sha Zhu be asking for trouble? Sha Zhu realized the crisis and was not confused at all at the critical moment. He quickly shook his head to refuse.

"Hey, Brother He, why are you so stingy? Do you have any manliness? I was worried that you would be tired from running around the canteen kitchen every day and that you couldn't handle it all by yourself. I was so kind that I didn't take this bus. I will walk home to avoid being wronged by you again."

Yu Li was equally meticulous. After realizing Sha Zhu's vigilance, she did not press him step by step, but instead retreated to advance.

He got off the back of the bicycle without saying a word, without even looking at Sha Zhu, and was obviously extremely angry.

This made Sha Zhu stand there in a daze, feeling helpless. After shouting "miserable" a few times, he pushed his bicycle and jogged over, trying to persuade and pull Yu Li back.

"Hey! Look at your temper. I'm not saying I'm going to refuse immediately. We should discuss everything. There's no rule that can be made right away. You know the situation in the canteen kitchen of the steel mill. There are many people and many gossips. Let's not talk about anything else. Just the bastard Xu Damao is always standing here, waiting for me to make a mistake so that he can report me. How about this? On my day off, I'll think of a way to go to the canteen kitchen and let you see what I'm doing. That should work, right?"

Yu Li had pinched Sha Zhu's soft spot very hard. Moreover, this girl Yu Li spoke in a soft voice, which made Sha Zhu's ears burn.

She just told Sha Zhu that after she learned how to cook Tan family dishes, she planned to open a restaurant and tavern and buy a shop. She would then be the proprietress and Sha Zhu would be the boss and chef. The couple would live in harmony and start from scratch.

This big meal made Shazhu so happy that he was filled with excitement.

It’s still the same old saying, a chef who doesn’t want to open his own restaurant is not a good chef…
