Chapter 304

As Han Guishan's son born in his later years, the birthday of little Han Youxin is naturally grand.

Starting from after 10 o'clock, guests arrived early one after another. Han Guishan and Wang Jing could no longer sneak into the kitchen to steal food. The banquet hall of Yushanfang was bustling with noise, and the kitchen was also busy.

As the meal time approached, the atmosphere in the kitchen became more and more tense. It was already difficult to see any good expression on Tong Deyan's face. The disdain for the helpers of Yushanfang was about to overflow from his face, and his little mouth was also like being quenched with poison, and all kinds of personal attacks comparable to biochemical weapons kept popping out of his mouth.

"I told you to carve radish flowers, what is this you carved? A big red flower for kindergarten children? Do you want me to pour another spoonful of tomato sauce on it to dye it? Today is a child's birthday banquet, you really treat the side dishes as children's meals, is Yushanfang a baby restaurant?"

"I know you just scolded me by the shelf. When scolding me, can you open your eyes and see what you are holding? Is this what I want?"

"And you, you repeated three of the four sentences you scolded me with. Your language is as lacking as your knife skills."

"Time, time, time! How many times have I emphasized that the time must be accurate? If you spent two seconds looking at the clock instead of rolling your eyes at me and scolding me, this sauce wouldn't be this bad."

Qin Huai was dumbfounded listening on the side.

He felt that Tong Deyan and Luo Jun must have a lot in common. If the two knew each other, they might have a chance to cooperate to produce a book, and the title of the book would be "100 Little Tips for Scolding People."

No wonder Tong Deyan's reputation in the industry is so bad.

His temper is really irritable when he works, and his language is really rich.

The most important thing is that his hearing is quite good. Several helpers were far away from him, but Tong Deyan could hear the other party scolding himself.

"Has Master Tong... always been like this all these years?" Qin Huai, who had finished all the work and was just waiting for the time to steam and boil, was wrapping Four-Joy Tangyuan while whispering about Tong Deyan with Zang Liang.

He didn't dare to speak loudly at all, for fear of being heard by the other party.

Zang Liang covered his mouth and whispered: "I actually haven't seen Master Tong before, but I have always heard of his reputation. It is said that he scolds even worse in his own restaurant than he does now."

"He and the old Master Xia of Fenyuan are known as the 'Double Sprayers of Beiping.' I haven't seen the old Master Xia either. It is said that he scolds people even more fiercely than Master Tong. As long as you don't make mistakes when working with Master Tong in the kitchen, he won't scold you usually. Old Master Xia is not like that; as long as you meet him, even if you hide far away, he will chase you and scold you a few times."

Qin Huai was shocked.

"Is old Master Xia the master in the top 10 of the famous chef list of Fenyuan?"

Zang Liang nodded: "Yes, he is the only active Chinese chef in the top ten of the famous chef list. He is old and has high seniority, so you can only stand and listen when he scolds you."

"However, I have always heard that only chefs with decent cooking skills are qualified to be scolded by him, so many chefs are quite happy when they are scolded by old Master Xia for the first time."

Qin Huai:......

Sometimes he really doesn't understand these savory dish chefs like Zang Liang.

You savory dish chefs are all somewhat perverted.

Eh, why did he use the word "also"?

Tong Deyan not far away glanced at Qin Huai and Zang Liang without speaking, and then continued to scold the helpers who didn't get the time right.

As the meal time got closer, Tong Deyan's temper became more and more irritable. At this moment, in the banquet hall, all the guests had already taken their seats.

There was an acquaintance of Qin Huai among the guests.

Xu Cheng.

Ever since Xu Cheng wanted to try how many kinds of dim sum Qin Huai was good at, and almost got trapped in Gusu after trying, and then found an excuse to run away after not finishing the test, Xu Cheng had never seen Qin Huai again.

Xu Cheng went abroad to eat for a while, was quite satisfied, and became a bit rounder.

As a good friend of Han Guishan and the person with the highest net worth among the guests, Xu Cheng sat at the main table without surprise, sitting at the same table as Han Guishan's two sisters, as well as Han Guishan and Wang Jing.

Xu Cheng also has children, but they had long passed the infancy stage. Being idle before the meal, he held Han Youxin and teased him, and asked casually: "Old Han, the chef of this birthday banquet is Tong Deyan. Who is in charge of the pastry? Is it Qin Huai or the few masters from Zhi Wei Ju I recommended to you?"

"Master Qin!" Han Guishan, who had eaten dim sum for two days, said with a glowing face, "The Master Qin you recommended to me is really amazing. The craftsmanship is really nothing to say. I have never eaten such delicious dim sum in my life!"

Xu Cheng was a little surprised: "Did he make Guo'er? Did Master Huang come too?"

"What Master Huang?" Han Guishan didn't understand, "Today's dim sum is fermented rice steamed buns, San Ding Bao, Four-Joy Tangyuan, and longevity noodles. That Four-Joy Tangyuan is really amazing. I have never eaten such delicious Tangyuan in my life."

"I ate 12 of them last night, and I was so full that I almost couldn't sleep. Jingjing even scolded me."

Wang Jing rolled her eyes directly at Han Guishan: "You only left me one bun, who should I scold if not you?"

Hearing Han Guishan say this, Han Guishan's two sisters asked curiously what Four-Joy Tangyuan was. Han Guishan, who had just become a loyal believer of Four-Joy Tangyuan yesterday, hurriedly began to popularize science passionately. When he forgot the words, he gave Chen Gong a look, and Chen Gong continued to popularize science, and it was more professional.

Han Guishan's two sisters were stunned, saying that they must be careful when eating later, eat less food, and save their appetite to eat the legendary Four-Joy Tangyuan.

Seeing Han Guishan so excited, Xu Cheng was a little confused, thinking about whether he had gone abroad to eat too happily some time ago, so he had a memory loss.

Why doesn't he remember that Qin Huai can make Four-Joy Tangyuan?

Qin Huai's craftsmanship is okay, especially considering his age and experience, he can be called a genius.

But in terms of overall strength, it is not particularly amazing, and he has a serious bias in his studies. His best Guo'er still needs a savory dish master to assist from the side.

Xu Cheng believes that Qin Huai will definitely be able to reach the top of the pastry world in time and refresh the highest ranking of pastry chefs on the famous chef list, but not now.

If Xu Cheng had to choose now, without eating Guo'er, Xu Cheng would definitely be more willing to go to Zhi Wei Ju to eat for a few days.

Zhi Wei Ju has many chefs and many dim sum, and as long as they are masters, their comprehensive strength is above Qin Huai.

So the problem now is, where did the Four-Joy Tangyuan come from? When did Qin Huai learn Four-Joy Tangyuan? Does Han Guishan love eating Tangyuan so much that he praises it so much?

Xu Cheng has already begun to think about whether to recommend a pastry master who makes good Tangyuan to Han Guishan after today's birthday banquet, so that his friend can see the world in pastry.

With this idea, Xu Cheng began to silently screen the pastry masters he was familiar with in his heart.

On the other side, in the kitchen, with the serving of cold dishes, the topic of Qin Huai and Zang Liang also began to go astray.

Being idle, the two of them had already talked about the opening issue of "Zhi Wei" this year, and Zang Liang had already begun to imagine the future and daydream.

"If the dishes I make could also be on the opening issue of 'Zhi Wei', that would be great," Zang Liang said full of longing, "If I were on it, I would call my parents to hang banners at home, from our village all the way to the township. When I go back for the New Year, gongs and drums will be loud, firecrackers will be ringing, and I will cook for three days for a big banquet, so that the villagers from ten miles and eight villages can taste my craftsmanship."

Qin Huai used his experience as a person who has been there to advise sincerely: "You will be exhausted to death."

It is really going to be exhausted to death.

As a pastry chef, Qin Huai's pastry is so high-volume that he was almost exhausted when he went home for the New Year this year, let alone Zang Liang, who is a savory dish chef and a Huaiyang cuisine savory dish chef.

It can only be said that Zang Liang knows nothing about the appetite of the villagers.

Zang Liang looked at Qin Huai with envy, jealousy, and hatred: "You are really a full person who doesn't know that a hungry person is hungry. You are on 'Zhi Wei', so of course you feel it's nothing. Let alone being on the cover of 'Zhi Wei', even if my name appeared on it once, I would cut out that paragraph and post it on Moments 10 times a day."

"Sigh, why didn't my master think of bringing me along when he was on 'Zhi Wei' last time? At least let my name get on it."

Qin Huai:......

You are really a good apprentice of Zang Mu.

"You are so young, you will definitely be on 'Zhi Wei' again in the future. Sigh, people are compared to people, and goods are compared to goods. The dry ones are dry to death, and the flooded ones are flooded to death." "I actually really don't want to be on 'Zhi Wei' again," Qin Huai said, "In January, Huang Ji's business was so good that I was scared. I felt that I lived in Huang Ji every day. The business is already very good usually, and I really can't stand it if it happens again."

Zang Liang:......

Zang Liang didn't speak, just silently took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Tan Weian.

Zang Liang: You were right, Qin Huai is really good at Versailles, I even want to beat him up.

Tan Weian replied in a second: always.

Just when Zang Liang wanted to say something more, Qin Huai put down the Four-Joy Tangyuan he had just wrapped and entered work mode: "Time is up, Zang Liang, go and see if the pot is empty. I'm going to pull noodles to make longevity noodles here."

"Pay attention to the time later. Start boiling the Four-Joy Tangyuan in 25 minutes. The 4 kinds of Tangyuan are boiled in 4 pots, and the time for each pot is different. The specific requirements have been sent to you on WeChat."

Seeing Qin Huai switch to work mode in a second, Zang Liang was stunned, subconsciously started to work, and asked: "When did you look at the time?"

"Feeling," Qin Huai said, "Did you forget? I started by selling breakfast. The speed of breakfast serving is a matter of life and death. If the steamed buns are late, students will be late for school, and it cannot be delayed for a moment."

Zang Liang instantly looked at the breakfast master with respect.

Tong Deyan not far away pointed at Qin Huai: "Look at others, chatting is chatting, but they don't delay doing serious things at all. What about you?"

"Heh."

Facts have proved that Qin Huai is indeed very good at catching the point.

Longevity noodles are the first pastry dish served on the table. Many guests saw the waiter serving longevity noodles according to the number of people, and all smiled and said that Mr. Han is quite good at rituals. The son is only two years old and may not be able to eat noodles well, but he does not forget to serve longevity noodles according to the number of people at the birthday banquet.

The longevity noodles were left to cool in the back kitchen for a period of time before being served at a palatable temperature.

Warm, simmered with chicken soup, the longevity noodles with very simple vegetable toppings do not affect their fragrance.

Chicken soup itself is very fragrant.

The long noodles, which were only one piece pulled by hand, spiraled in the bowl, looking very chewy, very appropriate, and very attentive.

Guests who had eaten enough food and wanted to eat some staple food at the end were very pleasantly surprised to see the longevity noodles. Picking up the noodles with chopsticks, they found that it was not the longevity noodles that were served in many restaurants by fooling around, but actually ordinary noodles, and sighed:

"This bowl really has only one noodle, it's been a long time since I've eaten such authentic longevity noodles."

There were also people on the side who smiled and sighed: "Who is idle and has nothing to do to eat longevity noodles usually? This Mr. Han specially invited a chef from Beiping, and the master who made the noodles must also be specially invited. Do you think it's the same as the noodles you usually eat?"

The person who sighed smiled and didn't speak, and couldn't wait to stuff the noodles into his mouth, eating them with a slurping sound.

It couldn't stop at all.

When you are really eating such a bowl of noodles, whether it is because of the sense of ritual or other reasons, it is difficult for you to bite the noodles off in one bite, but you keep sucking them in, chewing while sucking.

The portion of longevity noodles is not particularly large, because it is a banquet, Qin Huai made each portion of noodles with sufficient length, but relatively thinner and thinner, and the portion is reduced.

People who eat fast have already finished a bowl of noodles.

"These noodles are really good, delicious and chewy! Where did Mr. Han find the chef, which restaurant is it from? Could it be from Zhi Wei Ju?"

"It's really possible. Isn't Xu Cheng sitting at the main table? If Xu Cheng is willing to recommend, maybe Zhi Wei Ju will really give this face."

"Is it that exaggerated? Let me try."

"Slurp, slurp."

For a time, the entire banquet hall was filled with the sound of heads down eating noodles and the sound of slurping noodle soup.

At the main table, Wang Jing, as a good mother, and having already eaten longevity noodles in the kitchen in the morning, did not eat it herself first, but picked up the longevity noodles specially made by Qin Huai for Han Youxin, a youthful mini version with reduced portion but not reduced length, blew on it, and after finding that the temperature was no problem, fed it to her son first.

"Come, Youxin, open your mouth, let's eat noodles," Wang Jing said softly.

As the birthday star today, Han Youxin didn't actually eat much food before.

The child is too young and cannot eat many things, so Wang Jing and Han Guishan only dare to let their son taste the taste.

And then eat heartily themselves.

Han Youxin, who was not full at all and smelled the fragrant longevity noodles, cooperated very well and opened his mouth wide, and even made an "ah" sound.

Wang Jing fed the noodles into her son's mouth.

Han Youxin chewed the noodles hard with his teeth that hadn't grown yet, bit off a small piece, finished swallowing it, and couldn't wait to open his mouth to signal his mother to feed him quickly.

Wang Jing rarely feeds her son food. This kind of work is usually done by the nanny at home, so she is not very skilled and doesn't feed fast enough. It made Han Youxin anxious, wishing he could hold the bowl and chopsticks himself and shovel it into his mouth.

Han Youxin's two aunts were inhaling like a storm.

If Qin Huai could see the way Han Guishan's two sisters ate noodles on the side, he would definitely sigh that the people of their Han family eat the same way.

It's a pity that Han Guishan's two sisters didn't have Mr. Han's appetite. After a bowl of noodles, they were full.

The sisters were stunned.

The younger sister asked somewhat blankly: "Sister, I seem to be full. What should I do if I don't have the stomach to eat that Four-Joy Tangyuan later?"

"I'm full too."

The sisters were confused.

Han Guishan heard the confusion of his sisters and pulled his mouth out to say: "It's okay, I asked Master Qin to make more raw embryos of Four-Joy Tangyuan. I will share some raw embryos with you two later, and it will be the same if you take them back and boil them to eat."

The sisters were finally relieved.

But obviously, they were relieved too early.

Because the next dim sum was served.

To be precise, the next two dim sums were served, and the fermented rice steamed buns and San Ding Bao were served almost at the same time.

In the kitchen, Zang Liang stared at the Four-Joy Tangyuan in the four pots, waiting to pinch the time to fish out the Tangyuan, divide them, and then let them cool.

"Qin Huai, I actually have a question. Why should Four-Joy Tangyuan be served last?"

"After normal people finish eating longevity noodles, and then eat fermented rice steamed buns and San Ding Bao, they should be full. Finally, another portion of Four-Joy Tangyuan, can they eat it?"

"It wasn't originally served last. Originally, Four-Joy Tangyuan was the first to be served," Qin Huai was also very helpless.

"It's because Mr. Han liked Four-Joy Tangyuan very much after eating it yesterday, and said it must be served last to fill the gaps."

"Mr. Han's original words were, a bowl of Four-Joy Tangyuan at the end of the birthday banquet makes the meal complete."

"However, don't worry, Four-Joy Tangyuan is served according to the number of people. Assistant Chen prepared many packing boxes. If you really can't eat it, you can pack it and take it away."

"Everyone also has a portion of raw embryos, just as a gift for the birthday banquet."
