Gourmet and actor

The goods are not on the right board.

This was Han Xilin's first thought when he saw Xiao Ke.

He drove the car himself on the way, and He Lun contacted the factory to inquire about the specific situation of the orchard.So he knew that there was only an elderly couple here, and they didn't ask for help.

But the person who answered the door was a young man who looked like a star.

Could it be that I went the wrong way?

Han Xilin turned his head and glared fiercely at He Lun who was in charge of locating the destination.

He Lun understood the boss's thoughts in no time, and quickly jumped out of the car: "Han Dong, he may be a guest at Yu's house, let me ask him first if he knows about the child."

Xiao Ke listened to his whisper, and immediately understood: "You saw the uncle who reported the letter, so you came here to pick up the porridge, didn't you?"

After searching around, I found that there was only an elder sister sitting in the car, and there was no sound of cars driving on the mountain road behind, Xiao Ke began to wonder again: "Didn't that uncle come with you?"

...Where is another uncle?

Before He Lun sorted out these relationships, Han Xilin had already guessed a bit, and asked, "Have you found a child here and asked someone to report it to us?"

"Yeah, but he didn't come with you. Where did he go?" Xiao Ke thought, maybe that person wanted to eat alone and went to collect the bonus by himself?Although it is degrading for a dignified prince to care about money with the common people, he is still a common man now, and he must win what should be his own.

Xiao Ke stared at Han Xilin intently, and once the other party said the word bonus, he immediately started to pursue the money plan.

Han Xilin was shocked by his sudden fiery eyes.Judging from many years of experience, this person probably recognized him and wanted to flatter him to gain some benefits.

He was so annoyed by this kind of person that even the joy of finding the child was diluted.However, because of the few traces of joy left, he didn't walk away with a cold face: "We haven't seen him, and we found the child through other methods. But don't worry, I will still give you the bonus as a reward. "

——He actually reassured himself, how did he know that he was worried about the bonus?

Thinking that his heart was seen through, Xiao Ke was very embarrassed, but still said politely: "Thank you."

He silently named the other party a servant of the household department.In this kind of place where people come to ask for money all year round, the necessary skills for an official are empathy, tact and thoughtfulness.

——Sure enough, I want to take advantage of it.

Han Xilin, who didn't know that he had just been forcibly touched by porcelain, which violated the regulations that officials cannot do business, made a decision in his heart.

After exchanging names, Xiao Ke took them to pick them up.He originally thought that the two men were relatives of Congee, but he didn't expect to see the delicious Congee from a distance, and it was the elder sister surnamed Jiang who rushed in first.

"Porridge, you child, Aunt Jiang is dying of anxiety!" As soon as she hugged the child, Sister Jiang burst into tears.Influenced by her, Congee also wiped his eyes.

After finally waiting for the Lantern Festival stewed cakes to cool down, Mother Yu just handed the spoon to the porridge, ready to eat her share, when a stranger suddenly rushed into her and cried with her child.She had no choice but to put down her chopsticks depressedly, and asked Xiao Ke outside the door: "What's the matter?"

"Auntie, they came from the factory to pick up the porridge."

He Lun immediately went up to shake hands with Yu's mother: "I am He Lun, the assistant of the special factory, that is my colleague, and this lady is Sister Jiang, the nanny of Congee. Thank you for helping to find Congee, thank you very much. In addition I'm really sorry to bother you so late."

Adhering to Han Xilin's low-key instructions, He Lun mentioned him vaguely in the introduction.Yu's mother was too polite to He Lun, and kept saying "it's okay", so she didn't notice this.

Xiao Ke noticed this, and suddenly remembered that the emperor brother in the white dragon fish suit, there seemed to be similar details in the experience that he bragged to himself afterwards.He couldn't help but glanced at Han Xilin thoughtfully, only to find that he was staring at the dining table in a daze.

Han Xilin didn't want to enter the house at first, but when he smelled the delicious smell of food outside the door, he made a wrong step and walked in involuntarily, looking for the source of the smell.

The table is not the usual farm cooking, but a kind of stew that he has never seen before.Although the plate that has not been touched looks good and is exquisitely presented, it is not special to him who has been in and out of Michelin three-star restaurants and various high-end restaurants all year round.

But it was the rich aroma from this plate of stewed food that was not special enough to lock him firmly from sight to feet, from brain to stomach bag, and his appetite, which had been dormant for a long time, seemed to be stirred by this aroma.

Too strange.Ever since he ate meal replacements for a while in order to save time in college, he has lost interest in eating anything since then.For him, no matter how exquisite the food is, it is just to satisfy his hunger. Although his sense of taste is still sensitive, he will no longer feel the heartfelt pleasure from tasting delicious food like other people.

The ancients said that food and sex are also sex.Of the two great pleasures in life, he lost one of them at a young age, so he was naturally not reconciled.In addition to seeking medical advice, for a while he spent his free time tasting well-known delicacies everywhere, hoping to awaken his appetite, instead of being a mechanical person who only knows how to eat according to the clock.

He tasted the major Chinese and foreign cuisines again and again, until he could tell the cooking method with a glance at the plate, discern the proportion of seasonings, and point out the difference between authentic and non-authentic.He even became a new critic in the food circle with his convincing reviews, but he still hasn't found the joy of eating.The doctor couldn't find out the reason, but it could only be attributed to too much pressure affecting appetite.

There is still nothing that can be done after all the human affairs, no matter how reluctant, I have no choice but to accept it.

For the sake of corporate image, Han Xilin sometimes has to accept publicity. After the publication, He Lun will send him a link, or give him a copy of the magazine.Most of the comments are envious of his youth, talent, handsomeness and wealth.

These people don't know that the proud son of heaven they envy will often watch the office workers who are holding fast food on the street and the happy-faced elementary school students who are sipping spicy sticks. Affection.

However, the persistent illness for many years seems to be showing signs of improvement due to the appearance of this stewed food.

But it happened to be at a stranger's dinner table.Would you like to ask for a taste?

Han Xilin hesitated, and subconsciously touched his stomach, where he hadn't had the urge to crave a certain food for many years.

In Xiao Ke's eyes, his appearance was that of being hungry and embarrassed to speak.

Considering his understanding before, Xiao Ke hesitated for a while, and invited: "The three of you haven't had dinner yet? If you don't mind, let's have some together?"

The father and son of the Yu family have a big appetite, and the portion of Yuanxiao cakes he left behind is quite large, which is enough for the three of them to share according to the ordinary portion.

After being reminded by him, Sister Jiang realized that she had lost herself too much just now, so she hurriedly wiped away her tears, and declined, "Why is this so embarrassing?"

After she finished speaking, she noticed the smell of food that had been overlooked because she was too excited just now, and she suddenly felt a little regretful: porridge tasted quite delicious just now, what kind of delicious taste is it?Really want to try it.

He Lun also declined: "No, no, you are too polite, we—"

Before he finished being polite, he suddenly saw his boss's hand in a downward posture imperceptibly, and suddenly stopped talking in shock.

When the group concludes a contract, it usually needs to wrestle with its partners several times, which is called a business meeting.Sometimes some things that are inconvenient for the big boss to talk about are often handed over to the subordinates. The big boss will stare at the side and feel that the conditions are acceptable, so he implies that the subordinates agree.

Han Xilin's gesture just now meant agreement.

...How could the boss, who has always been honest with strangers, agree to stay?He must be dazzled.

He Lun took off his glasses without hesitation and wiped them vigorously for a few times. After putting them on again, he found that the boss's face was a little impatient, but his gesture was still a firm agreement.

"...No, but I ran for a long time today, and I only ate a piece of bread, so I'm really hungry. If it's convenient, I'll bother you." He Lun turned around abruptly, and couldn't help but want to cover his face.The resentment in my heart is extremely extreme: the elite person who spent half of his life collapsed into a glutton just because of a gesture from the boss.

Compared to his resentment, Jiang Jie smiled happily, and Han Xilin nodded secretly in his heart.

Xiao Ke stewed the remaining Yuanxiao cakes and served them to the table.Out of some indescribable thought, he gave the first share to Han Xilin, then Sister Jiang, and He Lun came last.

Except for Han Xilin, no one else noticed the mystery hidden in this sequence.Glancing at Xiao Ke, who was acting as if nothing had happened, Han Xilin thought, although this young man likes to take shortcuts, he seems to have some real skills.

He didn't realize that his opinion of Xiao Ke was quietly changing unconsciously.

Sister Jiang, who was tempted by the aroma, couldn't wait to take a sip, and immediately widened her eyes: "Oh, it's so delicious! It's better than the platinum five-star hotel that his mother took me to eat last time! Xiao Ke His workmanship is simply outstanding!"

While Xiao Ke was cooking, He Lun took advantage of the time to call the police and the film crew in Search Mountain and told them that the child had been found.At the request of Yu's mother, he specially contacted the person in charge of the group and asked him to tell Yu's father and son.

After several phone calls, everyone was already in motion when they sat down at the dining table.He peeked at the boss's face as a habit. In his opinion, the boss's expression as a senior food critic is enough to explain the score of this dinner.Seeing that the boss looked indifferent and noncommittal, he couldn't help being a little disappointed, thinking that the food just smelled good.

But seeing that Sister Jiang's compliment was not polite, he was a little confused again, and the hand that wanted to take the water glass couldn't help but stretched out to the chopsticks, ready to try it first.But at this moment, the boss made another move.What does that gesture mean—transfer? !

Resisting the urge to wipe his glasses, He Lun tried his best to tighten the corners of his twitching mouth, scooped up two spoonfuls of stew in a small bowl and took half of the pancake.In the end, he respectfully pushed the plate to the boss and explained to the others: "I eat less."

The people at the table looked at the cat food in his bowl, and at his decent figure, all showing incredulous expressions.Only Han Xilin calmly put all the shares transferred by his subordinates into his empty plate.

Mother Yu muttered, "But you don't look very thin."

"...I will gain weight if I drink cold water."

Too many words and too many mistakes, He Lun hastened to put his head down and eat hard.As soon as he took a bite, he suddenly realized: just now he was cheated by the boss's ice cube face, the taste is so good, no wonder the boss wants to grab his share.Alas, if I knew I would call after eating, I was so dedicated, I didn't even have to eat food, so I had to go back to make noodles.But having said that, after working as an assistant for several years, it was the first time I saw the boss eat so much.

Han Xilin couldn't remember the last time he took the initiative to add a meal.After taking the first bite of stewed pancakes, his long-numbed stomach immediately burst out with a strong sense of presence, driving him to clean up the food as quickly as possible, but he was still not satisfied, so he had to ask for his subordinate's portion again.

If he hadn't been concerned about his image, he would probably have scraped off the remaining juice on the plate.Although he resisted the urge, he quietly finished the garnish such as corn kernels.

Experiencing the long-lost sense of satiety and comfort, Han Xilin stood up with unsatisfied intentions, looked at Xiao Ke who was saying goodbye to Congee Congee, his eyes darkened, and he made a decision.

After He Lun said goodbye to Yu's mother, Han Xilin took advantage of Sister Jiang holding the child to get into the car first, and said to the assistant: "I want Xiao Ke, you should do it as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

He Lun, who hadn't recovered from the resentment that the delicious food flew away, was immediately shaken by the tyrant's declaration, pinching his jaw, desperately restraining the urge to growl: "Director Han, can you be more specific?"

"It's just hiring, and you don't even know about it?" Han Xilin felt that the assistant was not smart enough: "Hurry up."

He Lun originally wanted to ask the boss why he invited someone here, but he was despised, so he immediately fell silent: "I see."

Only then was Han Xilin satisfied.He intends to invite Xiao Ke to cook a few meals, and if the food is still delicious, he will stay as the exclusive chef.If there is no effect, it just happened that my father complained recently that he was tired of eating and wanted to change the cook, so Xiao Ke happened to be on top.

They got into the car.The moment it started, Congee Congee, who was so sleepy and nodded, woke up, and went to play with the necklace that Sister Jiang was wearing.Sister Jiang took the opportunity to ask him: "Good boy, tell Aunt Jiang, why did you run away suddenly today?"

After talking and laughing all night, he suddenly withdrew his hand and rubbed his eyes violently, his plump face was instantly wet and slippery with tears.

Sister Jiang suddenly felt distressed.There was an outsider there just now, and seeing that Congee Congee was in a normal mood, he thought it was nothing serious, so he didn't ask further questions.Now it seems that she was wrong.

After coaxing for a long time, Congee Congee said in a crying voice: "Luo Wang said that Mom and Dad are not with me, because they have another family. They will divorce soon, and they don't want me and brother."
