The Little Chef of the Film Emperor's House

Chapter 17 Heart palpitations "If you pay, it's just a business."  …

Jiang Qi opened his eyes: "What?"

Qiao Zhuyu sighed helplessly: "After all, you paid for it, and I can provide other services appropriately during the contract period."

"Is it free?"

"If you add more money, the business will be more thoughtful."

"My business has been very good in the past two days in the hospital. This kind of service does not require additional money, is it okay?" Jiang Qi was full of expectation, his light brown glazed eyes were shining brightly, and the light from the car window shone in. , coating him with a layer of golden light.

Qiao Zhuyu's throat choked, and she thought that not only would she not need to add money, but she might also be in debt.

debt of conscience.

peach blossom debt.

The two piles together make up a romantic debt.

She turned her face away from looking at him, tried her best to ignore the momentary palpitations, and said bluntly: "For the sake of the basic salary, it's okay."

It was noon when we returned to Baipo Village, Qiao Zhuyu and Jiang Qi rejoined the recording, and the cameraman picked up the machine and worked hard from the moment he got off the car.

Since Qiao Zhuyu had no food left, she had to go back with Jiang Qi.

I don't know if he got the "extra price" without a price increase, or Jiang Qi walked lightly with the wind in the thought of seeing Qiao Zhuyu cooking again.

Qiao Zhuyu saw it in her eyes, and felt that there was a cloud of drizzle above her head.

In the end, when I returned to Jiang Qi's place, I found that this was no longer a cloud, at least to the extent that God poured a bucket of cold water on his head.

Xu Bai and Yi Baiying knew in advance that the two of them were coming back today, and they deliberately brought the ingredients they got from doing the mission, each with a bamboo basket, and Xu Bai also carried a big frame on his back, just like homeless siblings.

One has "Ceng" written on its face, and the other has a big "rice".

Yi Baiying smiled amiably and could not refuse: "I'm back, is Xiao Jiang okay?"

"It's just a small injury, nothing serious, thank you for your concern." Jiang Qi said politely.

Xu Bai was much more straightforward, if Jiang Qi hadn't stopped him, he would have jumped directly into Qiao Zhuyu's arms.

"Sister Qiao, you're finally back! I miss you so much!" Xu Bai snotted and burst into tears, like a brat who ran away from some cram school.

"You don't even know," Xu Bai was still crying, "What kind of life are we living these days, sister Ying cooks too——!"

"Ahem." Yi Baiying cleared her throat in due course.

Xu Bai stopped crying, his mouth was so constricted that two catties of pork could hang on it.

Qiao Zhuyu forced a little bit of sympathy in spite of her dislike, and asked, "Why are there only you two, brother Lu Tao and Ye Xi?"

"Brother Lu Tao always helps Sister Ying with tasks, but Ye Xi is even more strange if he doesn't eat with us. These two days, he is always talking about it, and he doesn't know what he is nervous about. Apart from doing tasks together, he also sees There is no sign of her." Xu Bai reported one by one.

The corners of Qiao Zhuyu's lips curled up, she did not do anything wrong, she was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, Jiang Qi was injured because of Ye Xi, she had ghosts in her heart, she would blame them if she was willing to see them.

It's just that Qiao Zhuyu and Jiang Qi don't have any evidence, and they can't rashly reveal what happened at that time on the show, otherwise Ye Xi might leave the village overnight.

In just two days, Xu Bai could already see that he had lost weight, and it was not easy for him to come. What's more, Yi Baiying was here, and Qiao Zhuyu couldn't refuse, so he could only agree: "What did you all get to eat?"

Xu Bai hurriedly pulled Qiao Zhuyu away, and showed off the fruits of his labor as if asking for credit.

"There are eels inside, but they are slippery. I groped in the field for a long time but didn't catch a few. In the end, I betrayed my appearance. A little girl caught it for me." Xu Bai was not without complacency and excitement.

Qiao Zhuyu: "..."

"This is an unexpected harvest from catching eels, little bastard! I caught this myself. At that time, this little bastard wanted to run a race with me. Just kidding, can I make it run?" Xu Bai held his head high and proud.

Qiao Zhuyu: "...you are such a young athlete."

There was also a small basket that was turned upside down on the ground. Seeing that the basket was still shaking slightly, Qiao Zhuyu felt bad.

The next second, Xu Bai raised his hand and lifted the basket: "Unexpectedly, there is another one here—"

Before the words were finished, something alive rose into the air, and its wings flapped wildly, creating a tornado on the ground. The grand scene was called flying sand and rocks. The eels in the basin next to it were frightened, twisting desperately, and splashing water.

Jiang Qi slapped Xu Bai's forehead vigorously: "Silly fork! The chicken is in the sky! Catch it!"

With a sound of "Keng--", Qiao Zhuyu's large kitchen knife was wedged into the cutting board. The processed chicken was smooth, white and tender. The whole chicken was put into the pot under cold water, and ginger and peppercorns were added.

"Big fire."

After receiving Qiao Zhuyu's order, Jiang Qi immediately added firewood to the stove.

The washed green bamboo shoots are cut with hobs in Qiao Zhuyu's hands. Each piece has the same thickness and is crystal clear. After cutting, put it in another smaller pot and boil it until cooked, then remove it and drain it.

Qiao Zhuyu counted the time, and calmly ordered: "Small fire and cover."

Jiang Qi withdrew the charcoal, Xu Bai found a cover to suppress the sacrificed chicken.

The carefully selected pork ribs are put into the pot with sliced ​​ginger, green onion, and peppercorns. Add a small cup of homemade white wine, and add water to boil.

Qiao Zhuyu pointed to the two pots and told Xu Bai: "15 minutes, take them out together later."

"Oh! Good!" Xu Bai nodded heavily.

The eel that was alive and kicking had also been obediently on the plate. Qiao Zhuyu added light soy sauce, white wine, and sliced ​​ginger, grabbed it together, and put it in Xu Bai's hand: "When the two of them come out of the pot, the eel will be marinated."

Xu Bai, who holds several positions, feels a heavy responsibility, and dare not neglect it in the slightest.

Qiao Zhuyu walked to the side of the pool, looking at the little bastard who was paddling leisurely inside, feeling complicated.

"I have never dealt with such complicated ingredients as yours." Qiao Zhuyu said.

Xu Bai's ears moved, and he said, "Why don't you eat it, I'll take it home and raise it after the show is over."

Qiao Zhuyu raised her eyebrows: "Okay."

Xu Bai also smiled foolishly: "It just so happens that my family also raises a long-haired rabbit, and the two of them can be companions."

Qiao Zhuyu: "...as long as you like it."

With Jiang Qi and Xu Bai watching in the kitchen, Qiao Zhuyu returned to her home and took out the bean paste that she brought specially this time, planning to season it later when cooking.

When I went to the kitchen, I saw Yi Baiying sitting in the yard, and she greeted him politely.

Yi Baiying smiled back at her: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay." Qiao Zhuyu said and was about to enter the kitchen.

"You and Jiang Qi have a very good relationship." Yi Baiying said suddenly, still using affirmative sentences.

Qiao Zhuyu stopped, turned around and looked at Yi Baiying inexplicably.

But Yi Baiying is worthy of being an old man who debuted for nearly 20 years, and her perfect expression is impeccable.

"Sister Baiying, what's the matter?" Qiao Zhuyu asked.

"It's not easy for Jiang Qi to be here today. There is someone so close to him who can take care of him when he is sick or injured. I am very happy for him." Yi Baiying said gently.

Qiao Zhuyu didn't think there was anything wrong, she just said, "It's just a business if you pay."

It happened that Xu Bai's panicked shout came from the kitchen: "Sister Qiao, it's time! What should I do now, nothing will happen!"

Qiao Zhuyu was afraid that this brat would spoil today's lunch, so she nodded slightly at Yi Baiying and went into the kitchen: "Stand at attention where you are, don't move!"

Yi Baiying was messed up in the wind by herself, paying for... business...

Could it be that she was wrong, did Jiang Qi play like this in private?

Today's lunch is very simple, there are only two dishes, but there are two big pots on the table.

Ginger sauce hot nest chicken, eel twice-cooked pork, red oil is hot, spicy and delicious, just looking at it will make your index finger move.

Jiang Qi himself loves spicy food, and now he can't stop it. Xu Bai's taste is bland, his lips are as spicy as sausages, and he is reluctant to put down his chopsticks, desperately consuming water while eating.

Qiao Zhuyu was still worried about whether Yi Baiying would not eat because she was worried about getting acne. Unexpectedly, Yi Baiying looked reserved, but her bones in front of her were not much worse than the other two.

Every time as long as Qiao Zhuyu cooks, there will be no soup left at the bottom of the basin. The four of them enjoyed the meal very happily.

After drinking and eating, the four of them cleaned up the leftovers, and the director team sent a mission card.

This time it was a group task, two people in groups, went to various parts of the village to find the next ingredients.

Qiao Zhuyu and Jiang Qi haven't participated in it yet, so they feel it's new, and Xu Bai is about to vomit physically when he sees the task card.

"Eating every day, or on the way to find food, I feel no different from reptiles." Xu Bai complained.

Seeing the look in Qiao Zhuyu's eyes, he quickly changed his words: "Of course, I'd like to thank sister Qiao for making me a new man."

Qiao Zhuyu didn't bother to talk to him, glanced at her task card, subconsciously glanced at Jiang Qi next door, and found that the task cards of the two of them were exactly the same.

Jiang Qi was satisfied: "We are a group, are you happy?"

Qiao Zhuyu: "...Happy."

In fact, she feels the happiest thing is flying solo.

Jiang Qi pretended not to see Qiao Zhuyu's duplicity, followed the instructions of the task card, went back to the house and took the stuff, and said to Qiao Zhuyu, "Let's go!"

Xu Bai craned his neck to look at the back of Jiang Qi and Qiao Zhuyu walking away together, swallowed, and glanced at the mission card again.

Yi Baiying noticed his little movements, and said with a smile, "Why, you don't want to be with me?"

"No, no," Xu Bai shook his head like a rattle, "I'm honored."

Yi Baiying patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go too."

On the other side, Lu Tao and Ye Xi naturally formed a team.

Their task is to pick vegetables in the greenhouse, and then sell them to the owner of the vegetable shop in the market.

There were only the two of them in the big shed, the road was muddy, and the soles of the clean shoes were covered with mud. Every step Ye Xi took was as uncomfortable as stepping on the tip of a knife.

Lu Tao was not that particular. He glanced at the cramped little girl, as if looking at his own delicate junior, and said with a smile, "I haven't suffered much since I was a child."

Ye Xi made her debut in a competition, and if she can enter the competition and win the championship, of course her family background is not bad, she frowned and hummed.

Lu Tao was not annoyed by such a rude response, and said, "I heard that Zhuyu's family is also in good condition, but I don't know why, it's so tiring to be a chef."

These words were obviously to praise Qiao Zhuyu's ability to endure hardships and stand hard work. Ye Xi lowered his eyes and said unconvinced: "Isn't he just a cook? What's so great about it? It's something that can't be put on the table."

Lu Tao seemed to have heard something very interesting, he laughed a lot, handed his mobile phone to Ye Xi, and said, "I'll just go down, you wait here, my pocket is shallow, I'm afraid the phone will fall on the ground Yes, help me get it."

Ye Xi just didn't want to work either, so he took Lu Tao's cell phone and held it for him.

Not wanting to see Lu Tao working alone, Ye Xi felt agitated in her heart, and flicked the phone casually, but the phone didn't have a password, so she unlocked it with just two swipes.

She didn't want to be seen by Lu Tao, and hurriedly wanted to turn it off, but accidentally caught a glimpse of the content on the phone. After seeing the title clearly, she suddenly opened her eyes wide.
