Ruan Xiaoqing was stupefied. When Master Qian said that, there was no sadness on his face, but only gentleness and encouragement.
"Um." When the girl saw Master Qian's half-white hair and haggard face, which didn't match his age, she nodded her head heavily with tears in her eyes. "Ok.
Goodbye. "After saying that, Master Qian drove away.
Even though some people saw darkness, they still spread light.
...
After Wuhai ate up the steamed buns, Yuan Zhou told him that it was the new breakfast that would be released in a few days and then went back upstairs.
After eating up the steamed buns, Wuhai went back to his own studio happily and decided to name the oil painting Steamed Buns.
"Luckily, it's not too late." Yuan Zhou didn't go to wash up immediately. Instead, he sat at the desk and muttered to himself and then stared blankly.
After that, Yuan Zhou stood up again and went to wash up.
After that, Yuan Zhou lay down and went to sleep. It was rare for Yuan Zhou to have a dream again.
Obviously, it wasn't a wonderful dream. Yuan Zhou didn't feel sleepy at all after he got up. He frowned and stared at himself in the mirror for a long time before going downstairs to jog.
As for Yuan Zhou, he was in low spirits due to the nightmare. Fortunately, he could ignore everything when he was cooking. Therefore, he recovered after breakfast time.
On the other side, someone, or rather, several people, were in deep trouble.
The reason was a parcel, a parcel that Yuan Zhou asked Zhou Shijie to send on his behalf.
The recipient of the package was Colin. That's right. Before leaving, Colin had given Yuan Zhou the pickled chili he made himself. In return, Yuan Zhou also gave Yuan Zhou the pickled chili he made himself, the kind without salt.
At first, Zhou Shijie wanted to ask why Yuan Zhou didn't send it himself. Before he asked, however, he understood.
At that time, Zhou Shijie directly complained that Colin was a stingy old man.
Indeed, Zhou Shijie immediately understood why Colin had asked him not to hand it over to him. Obviously, Yuan Zhou had also understood Colin's intention.
That was why Zhou Shijie was cursing. At that time, he was mostly complaining. If Yuan Zhou could benefit from it, he would be very willing to be a temporary postman.
Now, the package that Zhou Shijie had handed over had arrived at Colin's restaurant.
Yes, Colin ran a big restaurant, but he was no longer the head chef. The current head chef was his apprentice, but he still went to the restaurant every day.
Zhou Shijie naturally knew about this, so he sent the package directly to the restaurant.
It was still early, so the main chefs and sous-chefs didn't have time to prepare the dishes. But now, they were all here and began to prepare the ingredients seriously. Colin acted as the supervisor.
It had been like this ever since Colin came back from R City.
That was to say, Colin's apprentices had been living like this for half a month.
Under such high pressure, not to mention the sous-chefs, even the head chef, Ke Sen, who was Colin's son, couldn't bear it. But he still gritted his teeth and persevered. The others didn't dare to complain, but when they saw Colin's gentle expression, they couldn't help but feel relieved.
"What is this, Head Chef Ke?" Ke Sen asked carefully. Even the way he addressed Colin was very formal.
"What is it? It's something that you can't reach now." Colin's gentle expression instantly turned cold.
"Eh …" Ke Sen was instantly speechless and could only shut his mouth.
"Idiot. Put down what you are doing and look at this pickled chili. After looking at it, make me a better one. Otherwise, you better practice your culinary skills in the future. Don't be lazy." Colin pointed at the pickled chili that had just been taken out and said seriously.
Ke Sen and the chefs in the kitchen looked at each other and then said confidently.
"This is easy. Don't worry, Head Chef Ke. We can definitely make it well." Ke Sen patted his chest and promised.
They couldn't be blamed for their confidence. After all, the master in front of them was one of the few people at the top of the pyramid of Qian Cuisine. They themselves were also very skilled. It was easy for them to make a basic pickled chili that they were good at.
"It's good that it's easy. If you can't do it, you know the consequences." Colin didn't remind them, but just emphasized the seriousness of the consequences.
"Don't worry, Head Chef Ke." The chefs in the kitchen answered together.
"Humph." Colin snorted coldly and then turned around to leave. When he reached the door, he said, "Look at this pickled chili yourself. Don't be lazy."
After that, Colin left the kitchen with his hands clasped behind his back and went straight to his own small kitchen.
"This guy is not only talented but also sensible. But he's too young." Thinking of Yuan Zhou, Colin couldn't help sighing.
He wasn't too young. Being able to cook so well at such a young age, Colin had a feeling that he had been living like a dog when he was young.
"I have to think carefully about what gift I should send to win back a loss." Looking at his neat and tidy kitchen, Colin thought to himself.
Colin was thinking about how to show his culinary skills and communicate with Yuan Zhou at the same time.
At the other side, Liu Xi and Liu Jian, who were standing at the door of Yuanzhou Shop, didn't feel so hesitant. They looked at Yuan Zhou who was busy in the kitchen and then directly walked into the restaurant.
Among them, Liu Xi was the big boss of the Chefs' Alliance of your province. At that time, he had felt that Yuan Zhou had a promising future.
"The restaurant is not open for business now. It's not lunchtime yet. Please come again at lunchtime." Yuan Zhou was washing the dishes and said without raising his head.
"Are you Chef Yuan?" Liu Xi and Liu Jian looked at Yuan Zhou up and down carefully and then asked.
"Yes, it's me." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then raised his head.
The person standing in front of him had a solemn look and appeared to be even more difficult to get along with than Colin. However, when he looked at Yuan Zhou, his expression was quite gentle.
When he stood there, his back was slightly bent. He appeared to be about 60 years old. His hair was white and cut very short. Even the hem and cuffs of his clothes were very clean.
The other person looked younger, but his dressing was quite similar to the first person. Even his appearance was similar to that of the first person who spoke.
"I came here directly without introducing myself or telling you in advance. I hope I didn't disturb your cooking, Chef Yuan." Liu Xi was the first one to speak. He said earnestly.
"What can I do for you two?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"Here's the thing. I'm Liu Xi from the Chefs' Alliance of your province. This is my younger brother. He's also a chef, but what he studies is Yunnan Cuisine." Liu Xi introduced himself one after another.
"We two old men have long heard of your culinary skills. We can't learn culinary skills behind closed doors. Therefore, we presumptuously come here to communicate with you, Chef Yuan." It was Liu Xi's younger brother, Liu Jian, who spoke this time.
"I heard Boss Yuan is good at Sichuan Cuisine, Guizhou Cuisine and Yunnan Cuisine. That's why I came here directly," Liu Xi said.
"Yes. The time is up to you, Boss Yuan. I hope you don't mind us coming here uninvited." Liu Jian continued saying.
While saying that, Liu Jian and Liu Xi both appeared quite apologetic. They were indeed a little sorry for their presumptuousness.
Yuan Zhou really didn't mind them coming to him on a whim. He said straightforwardly, "No, I don't mind. Culinary skills indeed can't be learned behind closed doors. We need to communicate more."
