Gourmet and actor

After putting away the contract, Xiao Ke continued to work in the kitchen.

Looking at the steamer, I saw that the coir raincoat pancakes cooked by Mr. Shi had become fluffy and swollen, and the original cold white has become soft white that absorbs enough water. Xiao Ke turned off the fire and went to cut the meat and preserved eggs.

Father Han has already cooperated with him quite skillfully in the past two days, so he doesn't need to explain anything, and takes the initiative to take a bowl of soup.

When the pressure cooker is opened, the rich aroma of the soup comes to the face with the steam that has been sealed for a long time, instantly moisturizing the internal organs.Father Han took a deep breath intoxicated before continuing.

The pig's trotters that have been removed from the bones are soft and tender, and the fresh white meat and smoked cured meat rise and fall in the milky white soup with golden oil slicks, against the tender and tender green cabbage heads, which attract people's appetite.If the spoon in his hand was smaller, it would be easier for him to eat, maybe Father Han would steal it on the spot.

However, Father Han ran into trouble when loading the fish: the sauce that had not covered the fish head was now simmered until only a thin layer remained, as if all the essence had been stewed into the fish.As a result, the crucian carp that is as big as a palm becomes extremely crispy.Only then did Father Han lightly touch the top fish with a spatula, and felt that the fish head was about to fall off.Fearing that the appearance would not be good, he hurriedly said: "Xiao Ke, you have to cook this fish."

"Wait a minute, I'll fry the diced pork belly first."

Hearing the name of this dish, not only Father Han came closer to take a closer look curiously, Yu Xiaoyue, who had been waiting to make this dish, also quickly surrounded him.

I saw that Xiao Ke first put green peppers and spring onions and other condiments into the pot, and then added a little local dried millet and chili. After the aroma burst, he added diced meat and stir-fried.When the light red meat turns gray and white, it is estimated that it is about eight or nine mature, Xiao Ke pours in the preserved egg that is also cut into cubes, stirs it a few times quickly, and quickly turns off the heat and puts it on a plate.

Yu Xiaoyue just didn't expect preserved eggs to be eaten like this.The combination of the aroma of chili pepper and the aroma of meat and eggs made his saliva almost drooling, and he subconsciously reached out to pick it up, "Xiao Ke, I'll serve it."

"Wait, we still need to load the plate."

ah?Isn't the dish already on the plate?Following Xiao Ke's movements, Father Han and Yu Xiaoyue discovered that there was another large twelve-inch plate on the table at some point.I saw him put the small plate containing eggs and fried meat in the center of the big plate, then opened the steamer, took out the coir raincoat cakes one by one, and arranged them around the small plate.

At the end, he put another spoon on the plate before handing it to Yu Xiaoyue: "Go to the table."

Put the fish in a shallow bowl, and while they were serving the dishes, Xiao Ke continued to stir-fry two vegetarian dishes, and made a large plate of fried rice with soup from the soup that was served earlier.

The so-called soup, in addition to the commonly used side dishes such as dried Badin corn kernels, the most critical point is to continuously sprinkle soup into the rice while frying.

In spring, although there is sunshine at noon, the temperature is still low in the morning and evening.The soup that was served earlier has become lukewarm now, and a thin coat of oil has formed on it.After frying the raw rice for a while, Xiao Ke removed the thin layer of oil and put it into the pot. When the rice grains absorbed a little of the oil and became translucent, he controlled the heat and continued to add soup spoon by spoon.

When the fried rice comes out of the pot, the fresh aroma of the pig's trotter soup has completely penetrated into the rice, but there is no trace of soaking in the soup, but the grains are clear and transparent, lined with green onion and red silk, which looks good and tastes even better.

After taking the last fried rice with soup out of the kitchen, Xiao Ke sat down while wiping his hands.Looking around, I suddenly found that someone was missing, "Where is Director Han?"

"He has something to do today. He is busy working overtime to help the boss make money. Don't wait, just leave some food for him."

Father Han kept in mind the setting that his son is now a migrant worker, took a plate and picked out a little bit of every dish as he spoke.Finally, looking at the plate of fried meat with coir raincoat cake, he said, "Put the meat in this cake."

There are similar dishes in restaurants outside, but the fried pork with it is not so special.Father Han picked up a coir raincoat cake and was about to fill it with meat, and immediately discovered the mystery of this cake: it turned out that it had been fried not only on the outside, but also on the inside.And it's not ordinary flattened dough. Looking at the circles of spiral patterns, it seems that it is oiled after being rolled out, and then rolled up and sliced ​​​​to be flattened.The shape is like coir rain weaving, no wonder it is called coir rain cake.

Watching and watching, when the meat was ready, Father Han couldn't hold back, and stuffed the cake that was supposed to be reserved for his son into his mouth.

After taking one bite, Father Han immediately tasted another mystery of this dish.For similar dishes outside, the steamed buns used are tasteless, but the stir-fried dishes are intentionally made salty.But Xiao Ke's way is that the two complement each other. The coir raincoat cake is not only oiled, but also salt and pepper is added.There is no salt in the fried meat with eggs, only seasoning.The slightly salty noodle cakes are paired with diced meat with moderate spiciness and the unique taste of preserved eggs. Take a bite of it warmly, and the taste is really full of praise.

Father Han obsessively swallowed the not-too-small pancakes into his mouth, and after he finished eating, he remembered that there were younger guests present today, and he couldn't help blushing, and said awkwardly: "Come on, Xiao Ke, come and taste it too, Xiao Ke You can’t get this kind of craftsmanship anywhere else.”

Yu Xiaoyue had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. Just as he was about to put down his chopsticks, Xiao Ke said, "Wait, I almost forgot to take a photo. I didn't post the breakfast photo this morning, so I must post it now."

Cameras eat before people, it is simply that people are not as good as machines.Yu Xiaoyue stepped aside dejectedly, so as not to appear on camera.

Xiao Ke's concept of taking pictures is still to press the shutter and it will be ok. Fortunately, he has studied calligraphy and painting for several years in his previous life and knows how to compose pictures.Although there is no deliberate lighting to create a fresh effect that is popular nowadays, the few photos I took feel pretty good.

After matching the picture, Xiao Ke wrote another sentence, "What's for my dinner today?"

After posting on Weibo, Xiao Ke felt that his meritorious deeds had been fulfilled, and he quit Weibo after he settled his mind, and raised his chopsticks.

I don't want to, I haven't eaten two bites, and there is a ding ding dong dong sound from the mobile phone I just put down.Xiao Ke opened it casually, and found that Director Xu was the one who forwarded it first: "Xiao Xiao, as someone who is eating instant rice noodles, please be sure to introduce the taste so that I can enjoy the salted fish hanging on the beam. Dinner."

Others are fine, the director ordered, Xiao Ke had no choice but to put it in the first place.But his typing speed has not been practiced, so he said to Xiaoyue: "Xiaoyue, come and help me type."

Poor Yu Xiaoyue had just finished eating a coir raincoat cake with egg and meat, and was about to attack the soft and delicious-looking pig's trotters. Hearing this, he reluctantly stopped his chopsticks to help.

I only heard Xiao Ke said: "Crisp bone fish, rich and juicy, slightly sweet and slightly sour, the fish bones are all crispy, you don't need to pick the spines when you eat the whole piece, and the soup can also be mixed with rice."

Father Han and Elder Wen were eating the second coir raincoat pancake, but they hurriedly added half a bowl of rice, grabbed a fish each, and poured a spoonful of soup on top.

"Songhua pork diced coir raincoat cake, spicy and refreshing...Gold and silver hooves, fresh pig's trotter tip and ham hoof tip are stewed together...vegetarian stir-fried cabbage heart..."

Following his explanation, the two elderly people ate vegetables step by step.But Yu Xiaoyue suffers. Not only can he listen but can't eat, but he has to beat him again to stimulate the secretion of saliva.He thought angrily, he must stay one more day, and let Xiao Ke cook another big meal to reward himself.

Seeing that the dishes were introduced one by one, and finally there was only a plate of fried rice with dried eggs that seemed plain, Yu Xiaoyue heaved a sigh of relief: Is it time to come to an end?

Unexpectedly, this is also a big killer, "Fried rice with soup, preferably basmati rice, with accessories, add fresh soup, the rice grains absorb the oily flavor, soft and delicious—"

Yu Xiaoyue couldn't take it anymore, before Xiao Ke could finish reading, he clicked and sent this item in a hurry, howling: "It doesn't matter, I want to eat first!"

At this time, the two elderly people also aimed at the fried rice.The three spoons were activated at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, a full plate of fried rice was almost divided up.

Xiao Ke was used to eating in his previous life, and he was not greedy, but he just told him, "Leave some for Director Han."

By the time you've eaten and drank enough, all the plates are shining as usual.Xiao Ke remembered that fans like to post comparison photos of before and after eating, and felt that he should learn a little bit, so he said to Yu Xiaoyue who wanted to help clean up: "Wait, I'll take another one."

Yu Xiaoyue, who was overwhelmed by eating, thought about what happened just now, and felt embarrassed, "Why don't you delete the article about fried rice, and I'll repost it for you."

"Okay." Xiao Ke first took a photo of the empty plate, and then handed him the phone.

After receiving it and clicking on Weibo, Yu Xiaoyue was stunned by the number of prompt messages in the upper right corner: It took only one meal, how come the number of retweets is seven figures?Is the life of a star so high-profile?

He wanted to see what the fans were saying, and after obtaining Xiao Ke's consent, he clicked on it and read: "Brother director, I am also eating instant noodles. What if I don't have salted fish at home, can I use salted radish instead? Urgent , wait online."

"Upstairs, I ate three bowls of Laoganma Bibimbap with Chef Xiao's explanation of the dishes. You can try it."

"I made a table of dishes with my own hands today, and I feel pretty good about myself. After reading Chef Xiao's Weibo, I suddenly thought about everything, what should I do?"

……

Someone even made a long microblog of photos of dishes, introductions, and stills of Xiao Ke, and Aite himself reposted them together.The number is also amazing, the original author alone has reached more than 100 million times.

In addition to similar jokes, more people are asking if this dish is made by Xiao Ke himself, if so, will it be added to the restaurant menu in the future, and when will the restaurant open?

The first question does not require Xiao Ke to go into battle. Director Xu has already answered: "Anyone who has eaten supper at Xiao Xiao's house can testify that he definitely did it."

Director Xu's several works are well-known to every household, highly popular and well-received, and his words definitely carry weight.Even passers-by who don't care about the entertainment industry and just follow the food map to watch the excitement, when they see his name with v, and then follow his profile, they immediately believe it, and then ask what is supper?

With Director Xu's endless memories, #小大厨首2.0版# is freshly released.At the same time, the number of fans that Xiao Ke lost due to the negative impact yesterday is also recovering at an alarming rate.From 10,000 in the past few days, it has grown to [-]+, and it is about to break a million.Countless people left messages, asking Xiao Ke to open the restaurant as soon as possible, and at the same time emphasizing that these dishes must be available.

The hospitality is hard to come by, Xiao didn't send out empty plates, and posted another Weibo: "Thank you for your support, but this is just a home-cooked dish, and it is not elegant. When the restaurant opens in the future, I will definitely introduce the most suitable dishes for you taste."

The home-cooked dishes are so delicious, so what should the top-grade meal taste like?For a while, Weibo was full of heated discussions and speculations.Even the pure face control fans who read Xiao Ke's still photos every day to guess the plot couldn't help but drool.The turmoil that happened yesterday was completely covered up.People only remember Xiao Ke's amazing craftsmanship, and they don't remember those black materials made out of nothing.

Of course, if someone cheers, it is inevitable that someone will be bitter, but it is a pity that no one pays attention.

Wan Nianqing, who was chasing after Xiao Ke and barking non-stop yesterday, swiped dozens of posts talking to herself with her trumpet and a few of her subordinates, but seeing that no one paid any attention to her, she had to close Weibo in resentment, planning to find another way to give Wen Siping, the employer who had been furious since the turn of public opinion yesterday, gave an explanation.

Just as he was thinking whether to define the incident as self-defeating and self-defeating, and forcibly lower Xiao Ke's favor with passers-by, he suddenly found a familiar penguin head beating.Looking at the name again, it was a well-connected acquaintance in the industry. He didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly greeted: "Old Zhu, long time no see, where did you get rich recently?"

The person who contacted him was Zhu Hengye.He Lun said to He Lun who had been on the phone all the time, "He replied in seconds", and then typed and replied: "I'm still at the old place, and I occasionally take a few orders. Wanhua, are you free recently? Not bad, do you accept it?"

Ever since he was recruited by Wen Siping, Wanhua has lived a fairly comfortable life, basically not doing any outside work.But recently, this matter has not been handled well, and Wen Siping yelled at him several times on the phone. Wanhua was worried that he would quit her directly one day, and was wondering if he should find another way out.Unexpectedly, as soon as this idea came out, there would be business offered to the door.He hurriedly replied: "Yes, of course."

"You have strong writing skills, and I also think you are the most suitable candidate. And after completing this order, you can lie down and eat this year. It's just—"

It's only afterward that the key is, and Wan Hua hurriedly urged, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly, Lao Zhu."

"I just heard that you offended the Deng family recently?"

Deng—isn’t the so-called financial backer in Xiao Ke’s manuscript actually a partner whose surname is Deng?Wan Hua thought about this tone, it seemed that this person had a lot of background, so he quickly dismissed it: "It's nothing, to be honest, my boss wants to get the surname Xiao, but I didn't send the manuscript."

Zhu Hengye: "It's really not you? You have to be sure. The person who bought the manuscript this time is the young son of the Deng family of the Deng family. Because of the black manuscript, his father also uncovered some of his old accounts during the investigation. It’s like something. He wants to quickly fake a few outdated websites, declare that this is all fake news, and make him happy. If you really offend him, then this business is not sending money, but sending you to others Cut it off. Even if he offered a price of [-] yuan, you can't accept it, right?"

One hundred thousand... This is his annual income.With Deng's net worth, this reward is definitely not a false report.Wan Hua swallowed, and decided to win the list no matter what: "Old Zhu, you are worrying too much. I definitely didn't post the manuscript. I just followed up with a few comments at most. In short, listen to my boss's advice." Meaning, he should have encouraged others to do it."

"Hush? This line is really buried deep enough. Xiao Ke has just become famous, and he hasn't hindered anyone's way yet. Where did your boss have such a big enmity with him? Don't talk nonsense."

Zhu Hengye has always been a gossip. Although he usually pays attention to figures in the financial world, this Xiao Ke and the young son of the Deng family who opened a restaurant in partnership can be regarded as half a businessman.Wanhua didn't become suspicious, and was afraid that Zhu Hengye wouldn't believe his words, so for the money, he explained in great detail: "It's all old stuff, and I heard him yelling after drinking too much, and I knew it by accident. Just to tell you, don't talk about it outside."

"Of course not, you know, I only broke the news when I wrote the manuscript. Your boss is not a businessman, I can't write about him. Xiao Ke's business is just a small business, even if he opened a restaurant, I would not interview him .”

"He and Xiao Ke met because of filming when they were teenagers. At that time, he was still with his agent. The man said that he and Xiao Ke had the same way of acting, but they made their debut earlier than him and were more famous than him. No way to go. Then he thought of a way to cut off Xiao Ke's way of acting."

"Don't be ridiculous, he is not a director, if he has this ability, he will be in the position sooner."

Originally, Wanhua regretted it a bit when he said this, but seeing that Zhu Hengye didn't believe him, he couldn't help becoming anxious, put aside those concerns, and continued: "He is incompetent, but he can't stand it. Xiao Ke was young at that time, and his ears were soft, so it was easy Influenced by the people around him. He intentionally made friends with Xiao Ke, figured out his personality, and then pretended to be outspoken, using the excuse of making suggestions, but actually hit Xiao Ke's self-confidence, saying that his acting skills are not good here, not good there, in short, he specializes in acting. For what Xiao Ke cares most about."

"...This trick is really damaging."

"That's right. After I found out, I couldn't figure it out. He was the same age as Xiao Ke, how could he be so scheming. Xiao Ke was only nine or ten years old at the time. Children are inherently uncertain, and they are always so scheming by their good friends." Criticism, after talking about it for two or three years, slowly got into the dead end. I specially found some films of Xiao Ke in those years, and I felt that he had fallen into a regression, was criticized by others, and felt that he was really not good enough. In the strange circle of regress, at the end, the whole person loses all energy and energy, and finally gets completely confused."

"But if a person is really talented, he may be frustrated for a while, but he will not be buried forever. Now that Xiao Ke seized the opportunity, he got up again."

"That's right, so my boss has been watching his movements all day long. That's how it happened yesterday, tsk."

"Ha ha."

This word made Wan Hua's eyebrows twitch a few times, "I've already talked about this, what do you say about Mr. Deng?"

"I'll show him your previous manuscript first, and if he nods, I'll contact you. I have to catch a business trip tomorrow morning for an interview, so I'll get off first."

After perfunctory Wanhua, Zhu Hengye intercepted the last chat record to He Lun in real time.Just when I was about to talk, I heard a muffled sound of something being broken from the other end of the phone, which was particularly oppressive in the quiet night.

"He Lun, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing. Old Zhu, thank you this time, I will treat you to dinner when I go back."

He Lun hung up the phone in a hurry, but his hands were so nervous that he didn't know where to put them.

Having stayed by the boss's side for several years, he is used to him being calm and easygoing when things happen. Today is the first time he sees Han Xilin's angry face.

However, He Lun was also very angry when the truth was found out.If the person surnamed Wen was in front of him, even if he was going to be retaliated afterwards, he would definitely beat him into a pig's head and vent his anger on Xiao Ke.Such a perfect person has been entrapped by this lowly thing for more than ten years, which makes people feel righteous indignation!

Even if he is like this, the anger in Han Xilin's heart who gets along with Xiao Ke day and night does not know how high it should be.

Seeing the crushed signature pen in Han Xilin's hand, He Lun tensed up and hesitated for a moment. Just about to speak, he suddenly got up and strode out, forgetting to put on his coat.
