Xu Qizhen put the duck into the stove and began to cut vegetables and make stew.
"Jinling roast duck is made of red bittern. One of the taboos is soy sauce." While Xu Qizhen was doing things, she explained, "red bittern depends on craftsmanship, adding soy sauce coloring is inferior."
Chen Shengji took a sentence, but Xu Qizhen didn't listen to it.
She is dedicated and skillful.
When Chen's grandfather saw this, he already knew 50% about the girl's cooking skills.
The last five years depend on the taste of the food.
It's very important to see if it's just a matter of appearance.
They backed out of the kitchen. Chen's grandfather said to his son and grandson, "her Daogong is the traditional Daogong of Jinling cuisine. She has learned it. Jinling chef's knife technique is flexible. They can carve on the spot with radish. "
Chen Shengji looked at the direction of the kitchen and said nothing.
Two hours later, Xu Qizhen brought out the roast duck.
The skin and meat of the roast duck had been separated by her cold knife and stored neatly in the dish.
The three of the Chen family sat down, and the old man first used his chopsticks to order the red bittern next to the seasoning. The stewed seeds are red and bright, with sugar and vinegar added. The sour soup is delicious, and there is no soy sauce.
He tasted it, his eyes brightened, and nodded without any trace.
"Eat crispy while it's hot. You can dip it in sugar or vinegar, or you can eat it directly." Xu Qizhen warned.
The skin of the roast duck is red and crisp, but not scorched, and the temperature is accurate. The meat inside is fresh and tender, and it's even more refreshing to eat with red bittern.
Chen's grandfather ate several chopsticks in a row before he stopped.
He told Xu Qizhen: "Mrs. Yan's cooking is excellent. She can open a high-end restaurant. Others don't know, I will definitely patronize. "
Xu Qizhen nodded her thanks in a refined manner.
It's settled.
After eating the roast duck, they asked for a duck rack to make soup and took the red bittern with them.
The driver sent President Chen and his grandfather back, and Chen Sheng left to deal with the follow-up affairs.
He took out the document: "this is the lease contract, Mrs. Yan, you can take it back to look for someone."
Xu Qizhen said, "well, I'll take it back first."
Chen Shengji chatted with her and asked her about all kinds of things.
Xu Qizhen told him what she could answer, but she avoided what she could not.
In a word, this chat is not particularly interesting, let alone smooth.
The next day, after signing the contract, Chen Shengji said that he would invite Xu Qizhen to have coffee.
"... do you like cooking because of your father's influence?" Chen Shengji asked.
Xu Qizhen said, "no, my mother doesn't cook."
"In the past, we had to make dishes. My mother said when she was alive that her family had a special cook to teach her. She and her sisters would be able to cook all kinds of dishes and snacks before they got married. " Chen Shengji said.
Xu Qizhen's reaction was light.
"It's a pity she left early." When Chen Shengji said this, he raised his eyes and looked at Xu Qizhen, "when she left, I was only five years old, which is a pity. Although I'm a boy, I still hope to grow up with my mother. Later, I also had a stepmother. She is a good person, but she can never replace my mother. "
Hearing this, Xu Qizhen stood up.
She looked down at Chen Shengji: "are you Yamamoto's lobbyist?"
Chen Shengji was stunned.
"What?" he said with a quick smile
"Have you ever studied in Japan? You always act like you want to nod and bow. You are used to walking in the way of clogs, which can be seen by others.
If you love Yamamoto, go after her generously instead of meddling in a roundabout way. If she wants to have children, go to Yan Ziqing and ask for them. I won't interfere. " Xu Qizhen said.
After that, she snatched the contract she had signed and tore it up.
She threw the paper on the table: "you are not pious about food. I don't think your shop can make the delicious food I want. I'm sorry to disturb you these days."
She turned and walked quickly out of the cafe.
When I went back to my restaurant, I found it cold and quiet.
Xu Qizhen went to the studio.
She painted all afternoon in the studio until someone called out for mommy at the door.
When she looked back, she found that her painting had strange colors and crazy lines. She immediately put it away and adjusted her expression. Then she went to open the door.
It was Yan Ziqing who came with two children.
"Today, I sent out the report card of the quiz. Kaikai is already the 37th. He said that you promised to reward him when his score rose by five." Yan Ziqing.
Yan Kai looks excited.
Xu Qizhen's mood is inexplicably improved - teachers see their students have made progress, probably will be so gratified?
"That's good. It's not the third from the bottom." Xu Qizhen said.
Yan Kai's excited color is slightly closed, a little embarrassed.He has learned to be ashamed, which is a good thing. It means that he will know how to make progress.
Xu Qizhen asked the guys to go to work. She closed the shop: "I went to buy ducks in the morning, and selected some to send to the shop, and also selected some to send home. I'll make you roast duck. "
Yan Kai and Yan Qi are very happy.
Two children happily surrounded her.
Xu Qizhen locked the door of the shop and told them to wait for a while before they went to the kitchen.
Yan Ziqing followed in: "can I help you?"
Xu Qizhen said: "you help me to take off the duck feather, I'll make the marinade, so fast."
Yan Ziqing stood by and waited for the water to boil. By the way, he asked about her progress today.
"No more rent." Asked Xu Qizhen.
Yan Ziqing did not understand: "why not rent? Don't you say it's good there? Are you satisfied? "
"I went to see it again today. There are mainly cafes and Western restaurants around. Most people who go there will choose Western food. Besides, it's President Chen's shop. He asks too much. " Xu Qizhen said.
Yan Ziqing looked at her.
Seeing that she refused to say, Yan Ziqing did not continue to ask.
The roast duck made by Xu Qizhen is unique, which is more delicious than that made by the head chef of Jinling Hotel. She has her own skills of selecting ducks and controlling the temperature.
She still cuts the crispy skin and duck meat with a cold knife, and then simmers the soup on the duck rack, with a few small dishes in the soup.
A family of four had a meal, and the two children were fed up and kept saying it was delicious.
After dinner, the two of them fell asleep in the car. While Yan Ziqing was driving, Xu Qizhen took a nap in the co driver's seat.
Two days later, when Xu Qizhen returned to xiaoxilou in the evening, she found Yan Ziqing waiting for her.
She was a little tired and still said, "you wait for me to take a bath."
Yanzi nodded.
She took a bath and came out. Yan Ziqing was still in the living room, not in her bedroom.
Xu Qizhen came out a little puzzled and saw that Yan Ziqing handed her a document bag.
"What?" Xu Qizhen was puzzled.
Open a look, it is the house deed of that shop unexpectedly.
She was surprised.
"I went to inquire about it and found out that the grandson of the Chen family was one of Yamamoto's pursuers when he was studying in Japan. He must have been bewitched and said something unpleasant. " Yan Ziqing said, "I'm sorry to involve you in this matter."
Xu Qizhen took the lease and looked at it.
She found that deep in her heart she was happy and still wanted the hotel.
She raised her eyes: "this is already a good gift, thank you."
Then she sat in his arms.
Yan Ziqing just hugged her and did nothing.
He has a knot, Xu Qizhen is to understand, she took the initiative to stand up: "so late, you go back to bed."
Yan Ziqing revived, smiling a little: "good night, you have a good rest today."
