With Xu Qing's resignation situation, it is impossible for any big company to accept her.

She whimpered and walked alone on the mountain until it was dark, her legs were numb, and she was still terribly wronged.She squatted under a tree, shrinking her body very small.

"Why are you crying here?" A gentle voice sounded in her ears, like the clang of a piano, washing away the mourning.

Xu Qing raised her head and saw a handsome young man.

He was carrying an iron bucket full of live seafood, his long hair was tied into a low ponytail, his eyelashes were long and thick, and his blinking movements were light and slow, making people unconsciously follow him to relax.

In the cold autumn night, he seemed to be afraid of the cold. He was wearing a white sweater with a fluffy and shiny circle of fluff, which seemed to add a crescent white halo to him.

Xu Qing said, "I'm fine."

His face was still stained with tears.

Xiao Yan: "..." No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it's okay.

He was about to go home when he saw a girl squatting not far away wiping tears.Being so close, it could be a visitor to the estate.

Xiao Yan was afraid that the hospitality was not good enough, so he asked very patiently: "Did you feel wronged? I am the boss here, just tell me, and I will help you solve it."

Xu Qing grabbed Xiao Yan's hand suddenly: "Are you the boss of Tianxu Manor?"

"Uh, I am."

Xu Qing clenched her hands even tighter, like a drowning person embracing the only piece of driftwood: "Boss, please accept me. I have worked as an assistant for four years, and I am very familiar with the business. I will work for you. I can do anything. Boss, you are kind..."

Hearing what Xu Qing said, Xiao Yan realized that she was not a tourist.

He wanted to pull back his arm, but Xu Qing's strength was too great to hold her back.

"I don't hire staff."

Most ordinary people can't accept the reality when they see Lingshan's employees, and it is easy to have trouble recruiting her.

Xu Qing refused to let go, and Xiao Yan's arm was pinched with a red mark, and she was still unable to break free.

Can't let go, absolutely can't let go, she needs to work, she needs to give grandma a peaceful old age.

Xu Qing's strength was surprisingly great, Xiao Yan was still holding a basket full of seafood in his arms, unable to use his strength, he couldn't struggle for a while.

While pulling, the system's inorganic voice sounded beside his ears:

[Fate is being deduced. 】

what?

[The deduction is complete. 】

[It is suggested that the leader hire Xu Qing as an employee. 】

Xiao Yan froze in place, not knowing how to react, and even suspected that he had heard wrong.

Taking Xu Qing as an employee, is there anything wrong with the system?

Xu Qing is an ordinary person. Wouldn't she be frightened out of her wits when she saw the Dragon King, Yin Jiang, and Queen Bee?

Moreover, the employees of Lingshan get along with each other day and night, and they can't hide it, and they will definitely be exposed.

Xiao Yan decided to ignore what the system said, and tore out his own arm before speaking.

[It is suggested that the leader hire Xu Qing as an employee]

As if urging, the system repeated it again.

Do not listen.

Xiao Yan: "Please let go, I..."

[According to the deduction of fate, Xu Qing will bring good prospects for the development of Lingshan. 】

Xiao Yan is quite confident, he still believes in his own judgment, if he accepts an ordinary person, he may be sent to a laboratory for research.

"Let go, I..."

[Fate shows that Xu Qing will definitely bring huge wealth to Lingshan]

Xiao Yan stopped moving.

Huge wealth.must.

How can this be rejected!The capitalist genes in Xiao Yan's veins are doing evil again.

With a [-]% profit, capitalists dare to trample on all laws in the world; with a [-]% profit, capitalists dare to risk the gallows.

Xiao Yan could not refuse the money delivered to his door.

He smiled immediately: "Are you unemployed?"

Xu Qing nodded.

"Want to join Lingshan?"

"Yes! I don't want a labor contract, treat me as a temporary worker..."

"Employees in Lingshan need a lot of courage, can you?" Xiao Yan interrupted her, it's ridiculous, he can't even give him a contract.

This request was a bit fresh and refined, Xu Qing was taken aback by the question, but nodded quickly.

Xiao Yan: "Then, how many days do you practice first?"

Xu Qing: ...?

Xiao Yan's strange promise made Xu Qing hesitate.

"Much, thank you boss?"

Two hands are held together and both are smiling.Xiao Yan smiled forcedly, while Xu Qing smiled tremblingly.

On the way back to Tianxu Manor, Xiao Yan received an email from Wei Huashen, and turned around to go to the warehouse area.

Xu Qing talked about her rough life for more than 20 years, and she shook off all her family fortune.When Xiao Yan asked why she left the job, her face froze.

"Boss, I really can bear hardships, but Wei, Wei..." Xu Qing started talking, thinking that Wei Huashen is not worthy of being called "President Wei", and changed her words:

"Wei Huashen bullies the employees, and I usually don't say anything. In October, my grandma was seriously ill. Grandma raised me by herself. I couldn't leave when she was sick. Wei Huashen also scolded my grandma. I couldn't be angry. , just, just slapped him twice..."

The more Xu Qing spoke, the lower her voice became.Slapping the former boss is basically going to be blacklisted for recruitment.

But Wei Huashen and Xiao Yan are closely connected, so we can't hide this matter, so if it comes from her mouth, the effect will be better.

Boss Xiao will probably fire me after hearing this. Even if he doesn't drive me away immediately, he will let her go after the internship period.

Xu Qing's fists were clenched quietly.If she hadn't met Xiao Yan, being unemployed would not have hit her too hard. She had been unemployed countless times, and each time she could get up quickly.

After meeting Xiao Yan, she wanted to stay under his command from the bottom of her heart.Just like a poem she read in her lyrical prose: Once the sea was too difficult to find water.

A gentle and beautiful person like Xiao Yan is very happy to be able to work under him.

She secretly made up her mind that if she could stay for an internship, she must do her best to become a regular.

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, a soft voice came from beside her ear:

"How is the old man now?"

Xu Qing was taken aback: "What?"

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at her: "Is your grandma still in good health?"

Xu Qing choked, unable to speak for a while.

After hearing such a shocking resignation experience, he immediately cared about her sick grandma without even thinking about it.

And judging by Xiao Yan's expression, he didn't seem to be polite, but seemed to really care.

Xu Qing immediately said, "Grandma is recovering, thank you boss for your concern."

Xiao Yan nodded.

At this moment, Xu Qing's heart was covered with a white halo, and he was her savior.

If you click on the praise value accumulation panel, Xiao Yan will find that the water level in the Holy Grail rises at a constant speed, comparable to Luo Zonglan meeting him.

Xu Qing was eager to express herself: "I learned a lot of crafts from my grandma, many of which will be lost, such as dough figurines, sugar figurines, paper-cutting, embroidery...cooking is also delicious!"

"Boss, the crabs in your basket were picked up on the beach, right? The crabs are not in good condition, lacking arms and legs. Most people can't make them, but I can!"

Xu Qing continued: "This kind of crab is chopped up and then stir-fried to make a side dish. Three crabs can be fried in a large plate. The taste is not inferior to high-end crabs. I will make it for you at noon."

"it is good."

Walking to the gate of Tianxu Manor, Xu Qing ran to the back kitchen holding the seafood bucket.After Xiao Yan finished delivering the goods, he also rushed back and quietly went to the back kitchen to explain a few words.

On the first day of Xu Qing's first visit, she did not notice anything unusual about Lingshan.

But when Zhen Zhu and Yu Ni heard that Xu Qing was favored by Xiao Yan as an ordinary person, and seeing Xu Qing's beauty, they were so jealous that their noses turned crooked.

"Here, you make these." Yu Ni smashed the leftovers of a pot of ingredients in front of Xu Qing.

Zhen Zhu said from the side: "Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all delivered to the boss, we don't need you."

"Okay!" Xu Qing agreed energetically.She has suffered a lot of grievances, and she doesn't care about this bullying at all.

The ingredients given to her included stale vegetable leaves, dead crabs, small fish as thick as a thumb, and sour half-ripe fruits.

Xu Qing looked at those ingredients and suddenly smiled.

When she was in the countryside and couldn't afford good food, she ate these every day.

lunch time.There are a few dishes on the dinner table that are painted in an inappropriate style.

In front of Xiao Yan were steamed crabs with thick claws, steamed plum fish with pickled vegetables, charcoal-grilled dragon grouper, and pan-fried yellow croaker segments.

Each dish is served with high-quality ingredients and meticulous cooking, served on white porcelain tableware, and decorated with rosemary and hydrangea.

And there were three dishes that Zhen Zhu put on the corner of the table, served in stainless steel basins, without arranging the dishes, as inconspicuous as possible, for fear that Xiao Yan would notice.

Just because the painting style is too shabby, it is in sharp contrast with a table of mid-to-high-end dishes, it's hard for Xiao Yan not to notice it.

"Who are those?" Xiao Yan pointed with his chopsticks.

Zhen Zhu pushed the cheese corn kernels she made in front of Xiao Yan, and casually replied: "Who knows, take it away."

Xu Qing has a good temper, but she is not submissive. If possible, she will seize the opportunity to express herself.

"These are my dishes. Boss, you can try them. They are all old-fashioned dishes, and they taste very good."

Xu Qing got up and moved her cooking closer.

Seeing these dishes again, Xiao Yan felt nostalgic.The roommate who shared the basement with him couldn't afford meat and was still hungry, so he often bought this kind of small fish.

Every time he gave Xiao Yan more than half of it, he also said that if you are rich, don't forget each other. After the success of the business, he would treat Xiao Yan to eat abalone and sea cucumber every day.

There was a table full of dishes in front of him, silently revealing the poverty of the past, Xiao Yan was filled with emotion, and first he picked up a piece of fried salted fish.

The skin of the fried fish is covered with a layer of flour. After frying, it is crispy and browned. It is thinner than a finger.

The fishbone has been deep-fried until crispy and can be eaten directly. When you bite down, there will be a "click" sound, and the aroma will spread everywhere. Take care of Xiao Yan's mouth lightly, and it is not very salty, so you can eat it empty-handed.

A layer of shiitake mushroom sauce is spread under the fried fish, and the umami flavor of the mountains and rivers blends together.The ingredients are very average, and the heat of cooking is better than that.

The skin is charred but not mushy, and the shredded fish meat is delicious. The temperature of frying the mushroom sauce is just right to stimulate the original flavor of the ingredients. If it is too much, it will be too thick, and if it is less, it will be bland.

The most test of cooking skills is the heat.The ingredients can be bought at high prices, and the knife skills can be practiced for decades, but the heat can only be understood, not expressed in words.

The characteristics of the stove, tableware, and ingredients will all affect the grasp of the heat. If you change a pot, the thermal conductivity of the material will inevitably change. At this time, the chef must control the heat to keep the dishes in the best state.

A simple dish of fried fish can already tell Xu Qing's cooking level. She is new here and not familiar with the kitchen, but she can cook it so perfectly. It is not only due to her proficiency, but also her cooking talent.

Xiao Yan has a good family background, extensive knowledge, and a little research on food. He was very surprised after eating this dish.Xu Qing's ability is really extraordinary.

Xu Qing is very good at observing words and expressions. Seeing Xiao Yan finished eating the salted fish, she hastily pushed another dish in front of her eyes: "This is a roasted dish from home. Do it. Boss, you can try it."

Baked vegetables with thick oily red sauce and long roasting time are the easiest way to let the flavor of the seasoning overwhelm the original taste of the food.The layers are not rich, and you can only eat one salty or spicy.

The grilled vegetables made by Xu Qing have the color of sauce on the leaves, as if they have been marinated, and they look delicious.The vegetable leaves are stewed so soft that they are not crispy at all.When swallowing, there is a slight sweetness aftertaste.

After dry roasting, the taste is strong, and the seasoning is slightly salty, especially with rice.The dry-stirred chili has a pungent taste in the mouth, and the fried sesame adds a mellow aftertaste.

The vegetable leaves are covered with soup and mixed into the rice.The rice is japonica rice, with a high gelatinous rate, clear and transparent beige color, less viscous but not loose, white and plump after steaming, very pleasing to look at.

The rice dipped in the soup is even more tempting. The hot steam mixed with the salty aroma rolls over the tip of the tongue slightly hot, delicious and filling.

After Xiao Yan finished eating half a bowl of rice, a glass of pomegranate-lime juice appeared in his hand.

Xu Qing had a standard professional smile on her face: "Boss, the grilled vegetables are a bit salty, drink this to quench your thirst."

Xiao Yan took it, with a helpless tone: "Don't be so polite with me, it makes me very reserved."

Xu Qing smiled generously: "Okay, boss, I'm not welcome, let's start cooking."

Xu Qing just sat down and ate the rice.

On the table, Zhen Zhu and Yu Ni's cheeks turned pink with anger.

Shuangli likes to drink, but doesn't eat much. Seeing that he was drinking rice wine, Xu Qing pushed the fried crab in front of him: "This dish goes best with wine, seafood and rice wine go well together."

The umami taste of the crab should be touched carefully. Chop the poor-quality crab when frying the crab, heat the oil in the pan, first add the pepper, star anise, basil, and shredded salted ham into the pan, and fry it with a small spoon.

Then add chopped and shelled crabs, stir-fry, and serve while hot, suitable for tasting while drinking.

Shuang Li smiled: "He is really a caring person."

Xu Qing's face immediately turned red.While eating, he sneaked glances at Shuang Li from time to time, and then quickly turned his eyes away.

Shuangli sometimes speaks frivolously, but as a demon king, he has an extraordinary bearing. A table of home-cooked food makes him feel like an emperor's palace banquet. With a twelve-pronged crown on his head, he can ascend the throne in place.

Shuang Li took a bite of the dish, and immediately praised, "Your cooking is very good."

What he didn't eat was that Xu Qing used a bunch of poor-quality ingredients to make these delicacies. If she knew, Shuang Li would praise turning decay into magic.

"How can it be called a level, it's just home-cooked food." Xu Qing smiled.

She smiled on her face, but felt sore in her heart.The family is poor and there is nothing to eat. Her grandma has experienced hardships all her life, but she still loves life unreservedly.

Grandma always said that life is getting worse every day, so if you have money or not, you should live happily.When she was young, she had a pair of skillful hands. She decorated the small bungalow warmly, carefully cooked every dish, and carefully prepared every meal.

Xu Qing followed her to learn cooking skills, handicrafts, and love for life.She likes a lot, the heat rising from the earthen stove, the window grilles on the old glass, the new couplets on the half-rotted wood door frame...

But what she likes most is the ordinary life.

Time doesn't wait, grandma is already eighty years old, her once thin waist is already bent, her white and tender face is wrinkled like bark, and she used to be a village flower, and she is getting old.

Xu Qing doesn't know how long grandma will live, but she wants every day when grandma is here to be happy from the bottom of her heart.

Xiao Yan doesn't like to encourage people, he said honestly: "There is no need to be modest, your cooking skills are very good, wait for me to arrange a suitable position for you."

Hearing this sentence, Xu Qing's eyes were sour, and she was on the verge of tears.She was suppressed by Wei Huashen for five years and never heard a single compliment.

Xu Qing didn't want to cry at the dinner table and cause others sadness, so she smiled brighter: "Thank you boss!"

That night, Xu Qing took over the job of washing vegetables, picked vegetables from the field, pushed open the kitchen door unsuspectingly, and then the vegetable basket in her arms fell to the ground with a "bang".

Saw a big octopus.

Yes, octopus.

A glass jar filled with water was turned upside down on the head, and the tentacles quickly waved to take out and arrange the tableware in the dishwasher, cook the broth, chop the vegetables, and prepare the ingredients that needed to be pickled.

The eight tentacles each do their own work in an orderly manner.

Xu Qing: "Ahhhhhhh—"
