Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

The first canteen kitchen of Red Star Steel Rolling Plant.

"The leader will be here for dinner in ten minutes, hurry up and cook."

"It will be too late soon."

Liu Lan gave a reminder and continued to help beat the eggs.

"Ma Hua, you just stir-fry the shredded potatoes, and I'll stir-fry the shredded pork with marinated sauce and twice-cooked pork."

Master Chen took a look at the cooked dishes and gave instructions to Ma Hua.

"How can this dish be stir-fried in advance? It should be stir-fried in the last ten minutes."

"It's fried in advance, so it will be cold when it's served."

Sha Zhu, who was washing dishes, muttered.

"Why are you worrying so much? It can't be heated up if it's cold. Just wash your dishes."

Master Chen glared at Sha Zhu. Before, he listened to Sha Zhu, but now Sha Zhu listens to him.

It is necessary to distinguish between the big and small kings.

“Is this your first day as a chef?”

"Can this dish taste the same if it's fried first and heated up later?"

“Can it be delicious?”

Sha Zhu put the washed plate into another large basin, which he would have to clean later.

"He Yuzhu, have you forgotten that you are just an assistant now, not the chef, so you don't have to worry about this."

"Are you free today? Go chop some wood before you go home."

Master Chen frowned. The leader didn’t say anything when I cooked like this before, so why not today?

As he said this, he threw the minced garlic into the pot.

"Too much. You think you're cooking a big pot of rice? You put so much minced garlic in it. The other flavors will be overwhelmed. How can the meat taste good?"

"Also, the oil you just burned needs to cool down, otherwise it will burn when you put it in the pan."

Sha Zhu ignored what Master Chen said, but looked into the pot and sniffed again.

"What's burnt?"

Just as Sha Zhu finished speaking, Auntie Wu started shouting, seeming very anxious.

"Master Chen, the garlic is all burnt!"

Ma Hua also gave a reminder.

"Shut up, idiot! Shut up and start chopping wood now!"

"Isn't it okay if I just want to do it this way?"

Master Chen looked at the smoke coming out of the pot and quickly poured it out, feeling very angry.

It’s all because I was too busy being angry with Sha Zhu just now.

The main thing is that Master Chen knows very well in his heart that Sha Zhu’s cooking skills are better than his.

"Of course, if something goes wrong, the boss won't come to me."

Sha Zhu stood up and walked towards the back door, where the firewood was.

When leaving, he did not forget to glance at Liu Lan.

"Master Chen, I heard that the leader that Deputy Director Li invited today is from above, and he is here to inspect the operation of the workshop where the accident occurred last time."

"Very important."

"How about you let Shazhu try?"

Liu Lan clutched the box of Olay that Sha Zhu had given her when he came in the afternoon in her trouser pocket, and smiled as she gave Master Chen some advice.

"The leaders above? Isn't it their words that determine whether our factory is doing well or not?"

"I heard that the first workshop has not yet recovered to its original production efficiency."

At this time, Aunt Wu also interrupted.

"Master Chen, why don't you let my master give it a try?"

Ma Hua also seized the opportunity to look at Master Chen.

"Silly Zhu, come here and fry this twice-cooked pork."

Master Chen looked at them and felt that he was wrong for not letting Sha Zhu cook.

It just so happened that he really didn't know how to stir-fry this twice-cooked pork.

Every time it is fried as stir-fried meat.

It’s just that when others eat it, they feel that it’s meat and it’s good enough to be able to eat it, so they don’t say anything.

"You really want me to fry?"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu, who was waiting at the door, asked while trying not to laugh.

"What? You want me to beg you?"

Master Chen turned around and glared at Sha Zhu.

"No need for that. Peel some more garlic for me."

"What we just did must have been wasted."

"Be careful next time. Doing this wastes oil and garlic, not to mention the firewood in the stove."

Sha Zhu took the spatula, rinsed the pot, and heated the oil again.

Master Chen held his anger in his heart and said nothing.

"As for the oil, just the right amount is fine. Too much is a waste and affects the taste of the meat."

"As for the garlic, it should be just right, not too much, not too little. And the chili..."

Sha Zhu was hyping himself up while talking about it, it was simply because he hadn't been a chef for so long that he missed it a little bit, and was actually a little bit boastful.

"Just cook, there's no need to talk so much nonsense."

"Ma Hua, hurry up and fry the shredded potatoes. The leader will be here soon."

Master Chen didn't want to hear Sha Zhu showing off, so he stopped him directly.

"Let my master cook these shredded potatoes later. He cooks them better than I do."

It is natural for MCA to provide support at this time.

"It's too late to wait!"

Master Chen refused directly.

"Don't worry, the food will be served slowly."

"Leaders are bound to drink, so serving slowly won't delay things, and it can also ensure the taste and heat of the drink."

"This is different from cooking a big pot of food. You can just fry it and throw it away without worrying about it."

As Sha Zhu spoke, he cut the meat and threw it in, and also added the other seasonings one by one.

After a while of stir-frying, the twice-cooked pork is ready.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Liu Lan couldn't help but shout.

Master Chen's nose twitched a few times. It was indeed fragrant.

However, Master Chen regretted letting Sha Zhu cook the twice-cooked pork.

In comparison, the dishes I cook myself are far inferior.

"Okay, go chop your wood, I'll cook the braised pork."

Master Chen quickly pushed Sha Zhu away.

"Master, please help me fry these shredded potatoes."

Ma Hua quickly greeted Sha Zhu.

"Well, your potato shreds skills are pretty good. It looks like you've been practicing hard."

"For stir-fried shredded potatoes, the key is to control the heat to ensure the taste, this..."

Sha Zhu was frying shredded potatoes while talking to Ma Hua, and the fat man next to him was listening with great interest.

Only Master Chen felt that something was wrong today and that something was going to happen.

"The leader is here. I'll bring over the dishes that are ready."

Liu Lan asked after coming back from a walk outside.

"These are all ready, bring them over."

"Let me heat up these three dishes."

Master Chen pointed to the dishes on the stove.

Sha Zhu smiled and went to chop wood.

A few minutes later, Liu Lan ran in: "Master Chen, the leader asked you to come over."

"Hey, good!"

Master Chen ran over with a smile, thinking that it was a good thing to meet the leader.

“Who cooked these dishes?”

Li Huaide asked after seeing Master Chen come in.

Master Chen was about to answer when he looked at the people eating and felt that the atmosphere seemed not right.

Something wrong with the food?

Could it be that Shazhu wants to harm me?

I knew this kid was uneasy and well-intentioned.

No wonder today is so abnormal.

"Boss, these four dishes were cooked by me, this one was cooked by Ma Hua, and this twice-cooked pork and hot and sour potato shreds were cooked by Sha Zhu."

Master Chen highlighted the two dishes that Sha Zhu cooked.

The problem is definitely with these two dishes.

"Silly Pillar?"

A leader who was almost bald asked doubtfully.

"Oh, it's Master He Yuzhu. People are used to calling him Shazhu."

Li Huaide quickly explained.

"Well, I guessed right, these two dishes are definitely fried together."

The bald leader knocked on the table.

"Where's Master He? Ask him to come over."

Li Huaide turned around and asked.

"Oh, I punished He Yuzhu to chop wood!"

Master Chen secretly sighed at his quick reaction. He must have been very angry when he even knocked on the table.
