Forget it, let’s let their family talk later. It’s also time to let the young chef know that his sister is here to see him.
"Please wait a moment," Old Jiang said after quickly taking down the order. "I'll bring you tea right away."
Lao Jiang came back quickly, put down the teapot and teacups, and ran to the kitchen with the list.
Nian looked at Chen Xiu twice and thought that this Sarkaz with a unique temperament was quite interesting.
"Brother, you're also a foodie. The dishes you ordered are all Shang Shu's signature dishes! But let me tell you, if we're talking about something that's worthy of Shang Shu's reputation, it has to be spicy hot pot..."
Just when he was trying to preach to Chen Xiu and turn him into a follower of Shang Shu Hotpot, a short figure holding a spatula suddenly rushed out from the kitchen, yelling and cursing.
"Who wants hot pot? Are you here to mess things up?"
The young chef waved the spatula, and his long red hair, which was tied up in a bundle, shook like a stove fire when he jumped.
His face flushed crimson. How could someone dare to order something as worthless as hot pot? This was truly an insult...
Before Yu could finish his thought, a strong and slender arm clamped his head under the arm.
"What's up? Are you complaining? I want to eat, so hurry up and cook for me!"
Yu's feet left the ground and he subconsciously flapped his arms twice. When he heard the sound, he immediately lost his temper.
Only then did Lao Jiang chase out from the kitchen. It was because the young chef ran away too fast just now.
She just glanced at the list and took off, leaving him no time to explain.
Seeing the brother and sister fighting with each other, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Chen Xiu just sat aside and watched the show. This family of Sui Pian never lacked for show effects.
It’s a pity that one of the twelve people is gone, and I don’t know if they will have the chance to have a family reunion dinner again in the future.
"Let go!" Yu broke free from Nian's grip, and once his feet touched the ground, he became arrogant again: "You're mixing hot pot with a bunch of real dishes. Aren't you just making fun of me?"
Nian folded his arms and raised three fingers: "I am the Shudao Mountain..."
Yu immediately turned around and walked away, fiddling with his short legs while muttering, "I'll do it! Can't I just do it right now?"
Nian Saran smiled, very satisfied with his youngest brother's hard-working attitude, and turned around and sat back on the stool.
"He's your brother?" Chen Xiu asked, "He's already the chef at such a young age?"
"That's right, the owner and chef here is my youngest brother!"
"Well, then wouldn't it be a loss for me to treat you?"
"Even if brothers and sisters like us come to eat, we still have to pay!"
"Of course, he wouldn't mind eating plain rice occasionally..."
Nian waved his hand, and his beautiful purple eyes blinked with a smile.
But Chen Xiu held up three fingers and asked with a smile, "Is it that you don't have it, or do you dare not have it?"
Chapter 139 Chen Xiu: Master is so generous!!! (6K, 3-in-1)
While Chen Xiu was chatting and laughing with Nian, Lin Qingyan came to the door of the Dali Temple's office.
He knocked on the door and then pushed it open and walked in.
inside the house.
There were piles of files on the large desk.
In the middle, there sat a blue-haired woman wearing a red official robe and with two horns on her head.
After hearing the knock on the door, her Caprini-shaped ears twitched and she looked up at Lin Qingyan who walked in.
Chen Che raised her brows slightly. She remembered that she had approved Lin Qingyan's application to go out and hunt down the suspect a few days ago, but she was not very optimistic about the final outcome of her action.
But Lin Qingyan had only been in office for a short time, so there was no point in saying some things to her.
It would be better to let her hit the wall and think of it as training for ten days or half a month, so that she can recognize the gap between ideal and reality.
But unexpectedly, Lin Qingyan came back not long after he left. Was he giving up too quickly?
Or did she manage to arrest Zheng Yuanlaodao in such a short time?
Without waiting for Chen Che to ask any questions, Lin Qingyan bowed and began to report.
"Your Excellency, I have accidentally discovered a significant secret while pursuing the Yuanlao Dao!"
"It has been confirmed that Elder Zheng Yuandao is a member of the Green Bat Sect. He is traveling to the Northwest Wasteland on the orders of his master, the Bat Mage."
Chen Che suddenly understood.
So, he came back to report the news while he was working on a case?
When faced with a situation beyond his ability, he didn't rush into anything, showing his self-awareness...
"After investigation, it was discovered that Qingyi Tower had become a pawn of the Shanhai Clan, using the assassin training camp to raise assassins and even secretly colluding with the Qingfu Clan."
"I urgently dispatched troops from the garrison to encircle their camp. We have already captured several high-ranking criminals from the Green Bat Sect and the Green Clothes Tower, and rescued over 200 abducted children."
Lin Qingyan completed the report simply and clearly, and finally saluted again.
"This case involves far more people than expected, and the Bat Mage's conspiracy has yet to be fully investigated. Please make a decision soon, sir!"
Chen Che frowned after hearing this, staring at Lin Qingyan for a while, and then confirmed, "Master Lin, you've only been out on the case for a few days and you've already figured out so many things and arrested everyone?"
"To be honest, the fact that this case was solved wasn't my credit. It was thanks to the help of two righteous people from the public." Lin Qingyan explained frankly, "They came here to rescue those abducted children, and for that..."
As Chen Che listened to Lin Qingyan's story, his frown slowly relaxed.
If that's the case, it makes much more sense.
The underworld of Dayan is complicated.
There is no shortage of chivalrous people, and there is also no shortage of evil people.
Many earth-shattering major cases were finally solved with the help of ordinary people.
I can only say that Lin Qingyan was lucky this time, as he arrived just as the work was about to be completed.
Otherwise, it would take at least several weeks to investigate the case from the beginning when I first arrived in the Northwest.
Chen Che shook his ears, no longer having any doubts in his mind.
The matter involves the Shanhai rebel party. This case must be reported to Zhenlong as soon as possible and handed over to the Simaitai.
Apart from that, unless the True Dragon orders the Dali Temple to assist in the investigation, the follow-up of this case will have nothing to do with them.
"well done!"
Chen Che stood up suddenly, swept the file with his sleeve, and tapped the table with his fingertips.
"This case is of grave importance and must be presented to Your Majesty immediately! The Blood Bat Soul-Chasing Curse is like a thorn in your flesh. You must quickly take that righteous man to the Heavenly Master's Mansion to remove the curse to avoid any mishaps. Submit the detailed case documents within three days. I will contact the Si Sui Tai and the Ministry of Justice for all other matters."
"I obey your orders! I will live up to your trust and protect Chen Xiu. I will submit the documents within three days."
At the same time, the dishes ordered by Chen Xiuhe for the New Year had just been placed on the table.
The Mapo Tofu was trembling slightly in the celadon bowl. The red oil wrapped around the snow-white tofu was like lava wrapping around a snow mountain. Green chopped garlic sprouts were sprinkled on it, and the spicy aroma stimulated by the hot oil diffused in the heat.
The twice-cooked pork is cut into the right thickness, and the slices are fried to a slightly yellowish crispy edge. The aroma of the bean paste has permeated every texture of the meat, and the fat and lean slices look like sliced jade.
The appearance alone made Chen Xiu's mouth water, and the other two dishes were no less delicious.
"This spicy feather beast uses free-range wandering feathers from the mountains." The young chef, worried others wouldn't recognize the quality, put his hands on his hips and introduced, "Chop them into thumb-sized chunks and deep-fry them until crispy. Then stir-fry them with dried chilies over high heat. Be quick; it'll be fragrant when it comes out of the wok!"
"Authentic! This is authentic!" Chen Xiu gave a thumbs-up and complained, "Earlier in Longmen, a restaurant from Syracuse actually openly launched a spicy feather beast pizza and made it sweet, sour and spicy. This is simply blasphemy!!"
"What? Sweet and sour spicy chicken?" Yu immediately flew into a rage, angrily shouting into the microphone, "What the hell is that idiot doing! He's adding a cloying sweetness to a perfectly good spicy chicken. Isn't that a waste? Sichuan cuisine is all about spicy, salty, and fragrant flavors. How can this sweet and sour thing be called spicy chicken? Stop calling it that and call it sweet and sour chicken!"
Chen Xiu knew that Yu would get angry easily when it came to cooking, but he had always stayed in Baizao and had traveled all the way to the heart of Dayan. He had no idea how fashionable the changes were outside, so he couldn't help but give him some general knowledge.
"Well, actually, this isn't so bad... Have you heard of sweet and sour pork with blueberry sauce? There's also sweet and sour pork with chocolate sauce, strawberry mapo tofu, and dumplings with fruit fillings. All of these have appeared in Longmen and can still be found."
At first the young chef just widened his eyes in shock, as his years of culinary knowledge were seriously challenged.
Although he can't help making all kinds of dark dishes when developing new dishes, because he always follows the inheritance and innovation of major cuisines, even if he fails, it won't be particularly outrageous, at least it's understandable.
But he couldn't even imagine what a heaven-defying combination like strawberry and mapo tofu would taste like. He felt that just thinking about the finished product would cause physical discomfort, and he had the illusion of facing spiritual pollution.
Yu clenched his fists, lowered his head so that no one could see his expression, and exuded a low pressure.
Old Jiang covered his heart with his hands, but couldn't think of any words to comfort Yu.
He has been with Yu for quite some time and knows what he cares about most.
But Nian suddenly stood up, waved his hand, and patted Yu's shoulder heavily.
"Little boy, don't bother with those bastards! Those Western chefs out there know nothing about cooking; they haven't even scratched the surface of the essence of Yan cuisine! They're cooking all these fancy things, like adding milk tea to hot pot—it's neither fish nor fowl!"
"If I were you, you should show up at their house one day, confront those bastards face to face, and teach them a lesson!"
The young chef staggered after being slapped by Nian, which forced an end to his darkening process. After listening to her advice, he felt that what Nian said made sense.
Instead of getting angry at yourself, it’s better to prove it with facts!
A chef is a serious craftsman. If the food he cooks tastes good, it tastes good; if the food he cooks tastes bad, it tastes bad.
Yu raised his hand to wipe his nose, then tilted his head to look at the boiled scales. There was another dish that he hadn't mentioned yet.
"As for the boiled scales, there's even more to it. The scales must be..."
He had barely started talking when Nian, impatient, interrupted him: "Stop wasting time, stop wasting time! You're so anxious that the food is cold! My stomach is growling with hunger, hurry up and bring the hot pot!"
The young chef glanced at his sister in dissatisfaction, only to see her slowly raise her finger.
He sighed, turned around and brought out a cast iron pot from the kitchen. The red soup was sealed with half a finger thick animal fat, and the base material made from several kinds of peppers was surging in the soup. As the animal fat melted and surged out, the pot turned into a boiling volcano.
"Hahahaha!" Nian Xi smiled widely, and couldn't wait to stretch out his chopsticks to dip into the soup base to taste it, and let out a long groan of unusual satisfaction.
"This is exactly what it tastes like! This is what it's supposed to taste like!!"
When Yu brought the secret dipping sauce with a dark face, Nian was strongly recommending to Chen Xiu to use her hot pot soup base to mix rice.
Chen Xiu looked at the nearly lethal amount of chili peppers in the pot.
It can be expected that Yu must have no scruples when cooking for her, and it is hard to say how spicy the food is.
"No hurry, no hurry. I've ordered four dishes. The rice from Dahuang City is a rare and good thing. I can't pour red oil over it right away and cover up the original flavor!"
Yu put down the dipping sauce and looked at Chen Xiu: "You are a connoisseur."
Chen Xiu laughed twice and responded, "Not that I understand much. Your restaurant is so particular about the cooking, so the staple food is naturally impossible to mess up. Although Jiangqi is a land of rice, in terms of quality and taste, the rice from Dahuang City is still superior."
"Of course!" Yu was very pleased with what he said. She put her hands on her hips and raised her head and said, "The rice in Dahuang City was also made by me, a sister. The taste is definitely impeccable!"
Chen Xiu stopped talking, picked up the bowl and started eating rice with the four dishes.
For a chef, no words of praise can compare to seeing diners enjoy their food and finish it all.
Not to mention, Yu's craftsmanship is truly impeccable.
Chen Xiu felt that this was indeed the most delicious meal he had ever had.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the basic needs of people in this society. Being able to have a full stomach every day is already a kind of happiness.
The dishes at Yuweiju were large and affordable. Chen Xiu had finished less than half of his meal when Lin Qingyan came to find him.
Fortunately, he was sitting by the window and could see it as soon as he came out of the Dali Temple.
"Master Lin, would you like to sit down and eat something too? It's almost time for dinner."
Chen Xiu said this and pulled out the stool next to him.
Lin Qingyan glanced at the young man sitting opposite Chen Xiu who was eating hot pot.
Of course she knew this person, but she didn't know how Chen Xiu ended up sitting at the same table with her.
You'an glanced at the red Shang Shu dishes on the dining table and frowned slightly.
She has always had a light diet and doesn't like spicy food much.
Now standing here, just smelling that pungent smell makes me feel a little uncomfortable.
"Why are all the dishes you ordered spicy? Eating too much spicy food is bad for your health. Light food is good for your health."
Lin Qingyan sat down as he spoke and took a bowl of rice from Chen Xiu.
"Of course, it's nice to indulge once in a while."
