royal family

Shao Wenqing received a call from his mother on the way home from school, and Liao Heying cried to her son about her husband's nervous behavior for many days.

"Who knows what he was talking about in the study? I saw Zhu Shilin and the others came, so I went up and asked them to come down to eat. Your father just told me to go! In front of so many people, did he let my wife go? In the eyes..."

The mother's sharp cry made Shao Wenqing frowned slightly.After his father was discharged from the hospital, his personality changed drastically, especially after he stepped down from the management position of the Shaw Group.The family has undergone major changes, and Shao Wenqing is much more sensible than before, because the doctor said that Shao Yubo should not be emotional, so Shao Wenqing will usually regress first if there is any small friction in the family.

But recently, even he couldn't stand it anymore.

There is a father in the family who is full of negative energy and has a heart higher than the sky, which will really disturb the whole family. Shao Yubo is like a conceited hedgehog, stabbing everyone who cares and gets close.Shao Wenqing felt that he must be possessed by a demon, and searched tirelessly for news about Shao Yan's family every day, and even watched relevant news broadcasts on TV over and over again.The servant at home had listened to Shao Wenqing's mother and son and carefully screened out news about Shao Yan's family in the newspaper every day. After being discovered by Shao Yubo, he scolded him and fired him on the spot.

No one in the family dared to help disobey the male master anymore. Shao Wenqing was dragged by his father all day long to indoctrinate him with the theory that he would do everything possible to get back the Shaw Brothers.

He really couldn't figure it out, his father was already like this, he couldn't even speak clearly, why was he still so unwilling to admit defeat?

After all, Shao Wenqing was a young man, and he felt impatient after being read too much, so he began to persuade Shao Yubo to take care of his body before thinking about these things outside his body.Unexpectedly, when Shao Yubo heard his reassurance, she immediately became furious, and scolded him for not being of his own kind for having no fighting spirit, throwing cups and chairs, and even brought Shao Yan out to compare with Shao Wenqing.Shao Wenqing's self-esteem couldn't be controlled at once. He listened to various 30-year-old Hedong and 30-year-old Hexi words every day in school, but he couldn't find it clean when he returned home!So he spoke bad words to his father, and compared his uncle's achievements with his father's. Shao Yubo was more angry than he was, and he almost lay on the ground and couldn't get up.

Shao Wenqing also got really angry, and after his father recovered, he resolutely moved out of that restless home.He was not short of money, and it was only a matter of minutes to buy a suitable place to live. After leaving the spacious but depressing environment of the old house, he was liberated as if he had been reborn.

"Mom, Dad's condition is very wrong recently." He interrupted his mother's complaining, and couldn't help persuading, "Why don't you move here and live with me, why bother to be wronged at home?"

Liao Heying stopped crying when he heard this, and after a long silence, he laughed hoarsely: "Stop talking nonsense..."

"It's not nonsense." Shao Wenqing's eyes fell through the car window on the thick clouds covering the sun in the distance, and his eyes showed some melancholy, "Dad doesn't need us at all, move out, everyone can live well Take it easy."

The car galloped on the highway and entered the city center, the surrounding people became more crowded, and there were tall buildings everywhere.

Shao Wenqing saw the invisible rear of the car in the front row with the red light on, honked the horn twice, leaned on the back of the seat irritably, saw something out of the corner of his eye, and turned his head quickly.

Next to it is Tianfu Building, a landmark building in City A, the most luxurious shopping mall in City A. Every girlfriend of Shao Wenqing regards this place as a sacred place, but he has rarely set foot here recently.

The reason... probably because of the fear of hurting the scene?

There was a long queue in the square in front of the Tianfu Building, and at the end of the queue a stage was hastily set up.The square was not far from the road, and squinting his eyes, Shao Wenqing saw the young man in the chef's robe of the imperial gate seat on the event stage distributing the porridge.People queuing up were all waiting to get the porridge. Many people stood around the porridge table holding small bowls and eagerly drank it. The scene was extremely lively for a while.The wind carried the rich and sweet aroma of hot porridge into his nostrils. Shao Wenqing was puzzled at first, and then realized that today is Laba Festival.

No wonder the scene is so hot. During the Laba Festival, Yumenxi began to distribute porridge again.

Shao Wenqing had heard about Yumenxi’s porridge distribution in City S last year. The diners who got the porridge spread word of mouth and described the bowl of porridge he drank as a rare delicacy in the world. .Shao Wenqing didn't understand, isn't it just a bowl of porridge?

The road was severely blocked, and when he drove to the next small crossing, he turned in and parked the car beside the square.

An inland city like City A is cold and wet in winter, Shao Wenqing tightened the collar of his coat, got out of the car and looked up at the Tianfu Building. On the side of the building was a huge promotional poster for the opening of Yumen Zun Winery, a Yumen mat company.In the poster, three similar and different wine bottles stand staggered, with a solemn and simple background, and the words "Yumen Zun" appear vividly on the paper, and the handwriting is unrestrained and unrestrained.

Shao Wenqing stared at the words for a long time, and let out a long breath, not knowing what emotion was surging in his heart.He also lined up in the queue waiting for the porridge.

He was not very conspicuous in the line, covered in famous brands and holding the keys of a luxury car. Many customers who came to shop in Tianfu Building probably also came to line up. Shao Wenqing heard that the first two young men in fashionable clothes and luxury bags girl chat--

——"Aren't our family old members? My dad took me there the day Yumenzun opened. My God, there are so many people, and we have to rob to buy wine later."

"Wow, haven't you met Shao Yan with your own eyes? Is he handsome?"

"Handsome must be handsome! You don't know, my dad and I were waiting for them to come in the infield. As soon as Shao Yan entered the room, oh my god, the whole room lit up. My dad even pushed me to go up and talk to him , Shao Yan just stood there, looked at me without saying a word or moving, my feet were so weak, I just didn’t dare to go up. Hahahahaha..."

"Hahahaha... Cowardly!"

Shao Wenqing lowered his eyes and couldn't help showing a smile. Suddenly he heard someone ask him, "Sir, do you want sweet or salty?"

As soon as he raised his head, he didn't realize that it was his turn. He glanced at the large and small bowls on the seasoning table in the porridge shed, and hurriedly replied: "Salty, salty."

The congee was a chubby little girl, wearing a snow-white dress hat and a mask, revealing a pair of cute and smart eyes, very lively, and she spoke with a smile: "You really know how to choose, the salty taste in the imperial gate table The congee and dishes here are all made by Yan Shao's apprentices. Be careful not to burn your hands, and I wish you good luck!"

"Auspicious and wishful." Shao Wenqing replied in a low voice, looked up, and the two girls who had been talking non-stop before just started drinking while leaning against the pillars of the porridge shed with their famous bags.The thick porridge has a deep sauce purple color, and the aroma floats, spreading with heat.Shao Wenqing recognized the dishes beside the bowl. They were very popular vinegar celery and pickled radish sticks at Yumenxi, as well as a few pieces of dark brown lard residue. This is especially vinegar celery. Many people waited for a day or two in the store. You may not be able to buy it, and it is really generous to serve it with porridge.

The thick Laba porridge poured into the mouth, and the aroma of the cereals and beans being boiled until they melted diffused in the mouth layer by layer.The moment he swallowed the thick porridge, his whole body warmed up from the inside out. Shao Wenqing couldn't help but sigh, and the strong smell of porridge enveloped his whole body lingeringly along his breath.

The small bowl of porridge was finished in just a few sips, and Shao Wenqing's tense nerves were soothed and relaxed at this moment.He stared at the small seal pattern of the imperial gate seat on the empty porridge bowl, and after a long time, he said softly to whomever he said: "Good luck, everything goes well."

-

The Imperial Gate Seat in City B opened not long ago. On the day of the opening, the entire floor was packed, and the scene was extremely hot.Even many media have ridiculed that the economic growth rate of the first-tier cities has increased rapidly in recent years. Although they were ridiculed by the people after speaking out, it is enough to see how the supply of imperial seats is in short supply.

Laba served porridge as usual, city B was dusty, and the porridge shed was half-closed. Shao Yan bypassed the endless line on the square and entered the mall. As soon as he arrived at the back kitchen, he heard his apprentice The sound of crackling sounded like firecrackers.

Tian Xiaotian came to grab his arm, and led him into the house, saying: "Master, you are here! Mr. Wang and Mr. Gao are here again. They put the kitchen here for us, right?"

"Are you asking again?"

"Say I want to buy your tea."

"Sell it, let them see the price for themselves, and it must not be too low." Shao Yan wore an apron, put on a mask and opened the oven door. The smell of garlic wafted into his nostrils. He used a large tong to directly clamp the fat barbecue steak inside. come out.

The meat steak is oily, fat and thin, and the surface is evenly grilled to a perfect slightly charred fire, and the gravy is sizzling outwards due to the residual heat.It trembled slightly when lying on the plate, and then began to emit a tangy aroma with the heat. Tian Xiaotian stared at the steak while talking. He has been experienced in food for many years, and it is a bit hard to resist at this moment. lure.

The grilling plate of the steak was scattered with small pieces of garlic, soaked and baked by the gravy, and turned into golden-yellow pocket delicacies one after another. Shao Yan shoveled them into another large bowl and handed them to Tian Xiaotian. At the same time, he ordered: "Cut the meat into thick slices, and pour this on the meat slices."

Wearing a mask, Tian Xiaotian swallowed his saliva, held back his greed and said, "Can I have a piece?"

Shao Yan looked at him in surprise, and clicked his tongue after a long time: "Excellent!"

In the end, I still cut off some unnecessary corners for him.Tian Xiaotian squatted at his master's feet and couldn't lift his head to eat - this is beef steak, probably the part with more fat and tendons, very chewy.The fatty parts of the beef are roasted, and the taste changes from fatty to burnt.The steak is very thick, at most it is only medium-rare, and the raw part is grilled with a gun for a short time. The juice locked inside is very rich, and almost every chewing can force out a deeper layer of deliciousness.

His mouth was filled with the aroma of meat and garlic, Tian Xiaotian was very satisfied after eating, and he served fish paste with full of love afterwards.Shao Yan's main job is to come over and inspect the working conditions of the apprentices, to see Tian Xiaotian's proficiency in using the musket, his movements are as gentle as the wind, and the golden fish paste is covered with a layer of light-colored scorched scars after being slightly roasted by him. The strong umami flavor immediately became unrestrained as the flame left.

This kid is now able to play a big role. He is learning food faster and faster, and he is making inferences more and more times.This fish paste is his own innovative dish, which is made of dried fish roe paste and served with matsutake cut into fluff. Although the idea is just ordinary, the taste is really good.

While cooking vegetables, Tian Xiaotian chatted with his master, and said carelessly: "Master, a few days ago, the Yu Lao restaurant in city B sent someone to poach me again, saying that I would be the chef there, give me What a high salary. The boss of his family even appeared in the newspaper with Shao Dong a few days ago. The handshake was called affectionate, and he turned around and poached the wall. You have to be careful."

Shao Yan glanced at him and said, "Xiang Baobo, what's your worth now?"

Tian Xiaotian smiled and stretched out his hand to turn it over twice, then turned to see Shao Yan who didn't understand, and could only answer dryly: "Say you give me 100 million yuan a year."

"Hey!" Shao Yan was taken aback, "So valuable?!"

Tian Xiaotian said in his heart, what is it worth? Only fools are really going to make that precarious money. Wouldn't it be better to stay in Yumenxi for a few more years?Several other juniors with better skills were more or less seduced by people's offers. Everyone would discuss this matter in private, but no one had ever expressed their enthusiasm.

The Shao family treated them well. The opportunity to learn how to cook with Shao Yan was a big pie that fell from the sky. This pie only took two bites. Who would be willing to be cheated away by the steamed bread?Shao's father has always been generous with money, and has never treated Shao Yan's apprentices badly. The usual pocket money and red envelopes are quite generous when calculated at the end of the year. Shao Yan also does his best when teaching them cooking skills.Tian Xiaotian has a brighter mind, has learned a lot from Shao Yan, and is now known as a master-level figure in the catering industry. Apart from Yumenxi, which other restaurant can give this kind of scenery?

The apprentices Shao Yanneng left behind were not so stupid. If they were really tempted to betray their master by those petty profits, they would be ridiculed for the rest of their lives.

After Shao Yan heard his apprentice flatter him a lot, he ordered tea to be delivered to the two old men in the private room, and hurried away with a stewed goose and some goose offal from the back kitchen. The two old men who came out rushed to nothing.

"Ouch! Your master is coming, you should inform us earlier!" Mr. Gao's voice was loud.

Tian Xiaotian can now smile at these big shots: "I'm really sorry, the kitchen was too busy just now, I forgot."

Mr. Wang reached out his hand and nodded him helplessly: "You bad boy, I can see you through my eyes! Afraid of being scolded by your master? Don't I just want to eat a stewed egg with sea urchin? What trouble would it take to steam it? Son?"

Tian Xiaotian went to help him: "I'll cook for you, I'll cook for you."

"I don't want your stew, your stew is not good." Mr. Wang lost his temper as a child again, the boss chopped off his walking stick unhappily, turned and walked towards the box, "I can't wait to celebrate the Laba Festival. My old man still has a few A Laba Festival..."

Tian Xiaotian was quite helpless, so he could only make up for it by steaming the fish as tender as possible.The little chefs in the kitchen called him Master Tian one bite at a time. Tian Xiaotian was not used to it a long time ago. He thought it was like calling his father. There is a sense of responsibility for the old and the young.

The people in this kitchen who are waiting to be dispatched are all burdens on his shoulders.While thinking this way, Tian Xiaotian sneaked out a small portion of the processed ingredients and kept them as snacks later.

Shao Yan is now a high-speed spinning top. Yumenxi and Yumenzun are inseparable from people. When the new factory started construction, he was dragged away to supervise for half a month. After returning, it has changed with each passing day. Yumenxi in City B is like its sister shop, which is always in a state of being overwhelmed. The skills of the apprentices are different from the past, and the way they deal with them is not as good as in City S. There was such a rush in the store.

Shao's father has been busy investigating the market recently, and is planning to open a new branch of Yumenzun after the supply capacity is improved. Shao Yan can't help with this matter, so he can only do his best to take care of the family for him.

This time I went to Yumenxi purely for my mother.

The family was thankful that Shao's mother could eat and sleep, and there was no nausea reaction in the early stages of pregnancy.Who would have thought that the pregnancy was stable, and after the belly appeared, the sins that had not been suffered before were poured out like grains that had been piled up for a long time.

Vomiting, insomnia, dizziness, weakness in hands and feet, and abnormal appetite. I haven't seen my mother's round and chubby face for a while, and suddenly lost a lot of weight. Mom finds something appetizing.

Shao's mother was so worried that she couldn't figure out why this baby was so repeated. She obviously didn't suffer any crimes when she was pregnant with Shao Yan before, and she really had twists and turns when she was old.

Yan Daichuan is now drawing people's attention to Shao Yubo's movements. Occasionally, when there is some progress, he will report to Shao Yan in detail. Recently, many things have happened to the Shao Group, so that Yan Daichuan doesn't know what to do for a while. How to start.

The taste of the sour soup gradually became stronger. He stared at Shao Yan as he scalded the thinly sliced ​​meat in the red soup, and said the news he only got from his subordinates: "The senior management of Shao's legal team has changed. The lawyer named Zhu Shilin who worked at home retired, and now he goes to the old house to look for Shao Yubo every day. The atmosphere between the two is very tense. It is said that Shao Yubo would lose his temper every time after seeing him. That Shao Wenqing, It's that cousin of yours who has moved out."

"It's really sick to live like this." Shao Yan didn't understand what these people were thinking at all. His family was healthy and his life was self-sufficient.

The sour soup is made by Shao Yan with fermented rice soup and tomatoes according to the national recipes in the book. I asked the doctor especially, and said that this soup nourishes the spleen.Tomatoes should also be processed before use. After washing with white wine, pickle them with salt until they are fermented. After they are marinated until they are round and plump, they are oiled and then stewed in fermented rice soup.The deliciousness brewed by the strange method is really different from ordinary food. The sour soup stewed with onion and garlic seasoning is clear in texture, and there is no smell of the original fermentation of the ingredients. Shao's mother recently took this I won't throw up after eating some noodles, and there is always a pot ready in the kitchen anytime and anywhere.

Yan Daichuan was rewarded for his meritorious service. There are small pieces of tomatoes in the sour soup. The meat slices are scalded until smooth and delicious. The stewed rice soup tastes thick and slippery. Generally speaking, it is very appetizing. .

His bullwhip soup was stewed on another small stove, and Yan Daichuan always felt quite ashamed when talking about the powerlessness in his room.Shao Yan was too relaxed on the bed, so he, who has always been very confident in his body, began to question his ability. The issue of replenishing body that should be considered after middle-aged and elderly people was put on the agenda early. Yan Daichuan is not Distressed.

He was drinking soup when the phone in his pocket rang again, chewing a smooth and elastic bullwhip, Yan Daichuan answered vaguely to show that he was there.

The subordinates over there seemed to have discovered some great news. Even though they tried their best to conceal their emotions, there were still some clues of excitement from the slightly high tone of their voices.

Yan Daichuan only listened casually at first, his expression became more and more serious, and when he finally heard it, even his eyes turned cold.

"I see." He put down the phone, turned his head and glanced at Shao Yan who was still cutting goose, frowned and hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yan, call your dad to come back early tonight, I'm a little Something to tell him about."

-

"...Will the will be fake?" After listening to Yan Daichuan's words, Shao's father was stunned for a long time before realizing it as if he had just woken up from a dream, "Is the news confirmed?"

"Zhu Shilin and Shao Yubo had a quarrel, and they were overheard when they threatened Shao Yubo with this matter. Now the Shao Corporation is not in charge of Shao Yubo, and Zhu Shilin will be forced to abdicate by Liao Dong. He asked Shao Yubo to come forward to protect him , Shao Yubo disagreed, saying that he could not communicate." Yan Daichuan frowned, "This is really a bit bizarre, didn't you suspect it before?"

Shao's father smiled awkwardly: "I guess I guessed a little bit, but there is no evidence. The main reason is that Yanyan's grandfather loved his uncle more before, so I think I probably thought too much. When I was in City A, I didn't Are you incompetent? When I came out later, I didn’t pay much attention to the Shao family’s affairs, so I just forgot about it.”

Yan Daichuan stared at Shao's father's reaction, and was surprised to find that he did not show resignation or loss, more like a sense of relief.

Shao's father was indeed relieved. The unfair division of the inheritance brought him not only economic blows, but also psychological trauma.During the time when he just separated from the family, his self-confidence was hit hard, as if the ability to work that he had always been proud of was suddenly belittled to nothing in the most straightforward way.On the one hand, he felt that the will might be forged, and on the other hand, he doubted whether he was as good as he had always thought. That kind of silent state of mind was not gradually calmed down until a long time after Yumenxi opened.

Now someone suddenly told him that what he had been insisting on all along was not wrong.

The uncertainty from his father that weighed heavily on Shao's father's heart disappeared instantly, and Shao's father suddenly felt that even his breathing was much fresher.

His reaction was so calm that Yan Daichuan, who originally thought he would be furious because of this, couldn't help being speechless for a moment.

The people at the table stared wide-eyed, Yan Daichuan saw that he had no intention of expressing any opinion at all, so he could only ask, "What about after that? Now that you know the truth, what are your plans?"

"What's your plan?"

"The truth is revealed... After all, the shares and assets of the Shao family should be shared equally among the descendants of the family..."

"Ah, this." Only then did Shao's father come to his senses. To be honest, he didn't pay much attention to the Shao family's money now. If Yan Daichuan hadn't mentioned it, he would probably have to expose it when he was happy. Woolen cloth.

"It's not worth much anyway." Shao's father said happily, "If you have time to get it back, I can give it to you and Yanyan as a New Year's red envelope, and if you don't have time, forget it."

He paused, and added after a long time: "Anyway, you are no different from my own son."

The author has something to say: Shao Yubo: "The Shao family! The Shao family! Mine! Mine!!"

Shao's father: "It's not worth much anyway, just give it to the sons as a New Year's red envelope."

The big devil wears rabbit ears and squatting on the ground to show off his cuteness. It’s been a long time since he’s been so cute. I’m a little rusty :-D [When I was catching bugs, I saw a big guy who dared to comment badly on the big devil’s cuteness. Did you thump? 】
