"Ahem, when I called you yesterday, my mom saw it." Yin Ya coughed and was a little embarrassed.
Last night, Yuan Zhou had a rare free time. He usually chatted with her through text messages and WeChat, but when he called her yesterday, he was caught by her parents.
This was similar to being caught in a puppy love relationship with another student in school. It was almost the same as being caught by the Dean.
It was not that she should not be in a relationship. After all, Yin Ya was not young anymore, but it was really embarrassing to be caught by her parents without any preparation.
"Is it okay?" Yuan Zhou asked as soon as he heard it.
"I'm fine. My mom was urging me to find a boyfriend before. I was just interrogated a little," Yin Ya said.
Yuan Zhou: "No, I mean, your impression of me hasn't decreased, right?"
"Uh … no." Yin Ya thought Blockhead was concerned about her, but she did not expect him to care about her parents' impression of her.
Of course, being concerned about this also showed that Yuan Zhou was very concerned about this matter.
"I took the opportunity to tell them that you are coming to visit. Anyway, I have to tell them sooner or later," Yin Ya said. "My mom is looking forward to it."
"That's good. I was afraid that your parents would think that I am not sincere enough, so I wanted to be more serious," Yuan Zhou said.
"Then tell me when you arrive. I will pick you up then?" Yin Ya saw that they were almost home and said.
"No need. Little Ya, you have already told me the address. I have already arranged it. It is near your house. It is very convenient. Little Ya, you don't need to pick me up. You can send me when you leave," Yuan Zhou said.
This time, Yin Ya's vacation was relatively long. It was mainly because she had been very busy after taking over the new position. She had no chance to take any vacation. Of course, it was also for Yuan Zhou's visit this time. She could rest for half a month with the annual vacation.
"Okay, but you still have to tell me when you arrive." Yin Ya thought about it.
"Got it." Yuan Zhou answered very quickly.
"Blockhead, I won't say anymore. We're almost home. You should get busy." Yin Ya knew that it was time for Yuan Zhou to practice cooking. Seeing that it had been five minutes, she wanted to end the topic quickly.
"Xiao Ya, take care of yourself," Yuan Zhou reminded her.
Yin Ya agreed and hung up the phone.
"Should I ask for one or two days?" Yuan Zhou was considering.
Previously, he wanted to take three days off. After all, it was a major event that concerned his life, so he definitely needed time to do it.
However, since it was the peak period for business, the number of customers in The Kitchen God would definitely not be low.
There were also engagements, weddings, honeymoons, and so on.
"It will take about two and a half hours to get to Jiangdu. I have an appointment to meet on the ninth day of the New Year. I can go on the night of the eighth. Then, I can meet on the ninth day and come back at night. Isn't that better?" Yuan Zhou touched his chin and thought of an idea.
"No. What if Xiao Ya's parents still want to meet the next day to understand something? I can't rush it too much. If I rush it too much, it will seem like I don't take it seriously. "Yuan Zhou felt that he should make a detailed plan.
He planned to arrange it at night.
"Let's practice the stir-fried beef shredded with green peppers first." Yuan Zhou thought for a while and felt that the most important thing now was to practice the dish that his future mother-in-law liked to eat.
It had to be said that Yuan Zhou was indeed Yuan Zhou. A simple home-cooked dish was turned into a flower by him.
For example, "In Cantonese cuisine, beef shredded is usually made with beef tenderloin. In Sichuan cuisine, cucumber is used." "Actually, using beef tendon can also be creative," "Rice dragon can be tried …"
Yuan Zhou was not afraid that it would be a waste if he cooked too much. The Kitchen God's dedicated rice bucket arrived. There were no leftovers.
When it was close to dinner time, he received a call. "Teacher Yuan, is the video recorded?"
"Okay, I'll send it to you right away," Yuan Zhou said.
After hanging up the phone, he washed his hands first and then took up the tofu and the knife to prepare the tofu carving.
The call just now was from the Jiangsu Cuisine Association. The association was going to hold an exhibition of famous chefs' knife skills. Yuan Zhou's knife skills were superb and he was also a director of the association. Therefore, he naturally had to participate.
Requirements: Shoot a video of him carving tofu.
He put the phone in a good position so that it could only capture the hand but not the head.
Yuan Zhou's way of carving tofu was different from others. Generally, tofu carving had to be done in water. Even if he practiced, he would practice in the dark. That way, he would have a better feel.
In the beginning, Yuan Zhou had also tried to carve in water. Later, as his culinary skills improved, he didn't use this method anymore.
The advantage of carving in water was that the excess tofu would be washed away by the water, which could reduce the difficulty of carving. But for Yuan Zhou, it was just a minor detail.
Now, when Yuan Zhou practiced tofu carving, he directly held the tofu in his hand. As for the knife, it was naturally the miracle kitchen knife.
Shua Shua Shua
Yuan Zhou held the tofu in his left hand and the kitchen knife in his right hand. The knife light danced in the air as he waved it at the tofu.
As the saying goes, amateurs watch the fun, while experts see the artistry. However, when it came to Yuan Zhou's carving, it didn't matter whether one was an expert or an amateur. His speed was simply too fast. Even if one was an expert, if one's culinary skills weren't up to par, one wouldn't be able to see anything.
Even those talented chefs from the Green Chef's Guild could barely understand it when Yuan Zhou deliberately slowed down his movements. But after a while, they couldn't see anything, let alone others.
The most attractive thing about Yuan Zhou's carving was the bright and sharp knife light as well as his graceful and swift movements.
Soon, a lifelike begonia blossomed in Yuan Zhou's hand. Although it was white, the petals overlapped one another. The folds and shapes of each petal were clearly visible, just like a real cherry blossom slowly blooming on the branch. It could almost be mistaken for a real one.
"The lines should be more deviated, otherwise it won't look natural." Yuan Zhou looked at the cherry blossom in his hand carefully and commented.
Then, he directly threw the beautiful cherry blossom into the bucket at the side, letting it fall apart as soon as it was washed by the water, not living up to its previous beauty.
His phone recorded this scene in detail …
Shua Shua Shua
Yuan Zhou continued to take up the tofu and the knife, preparing to carve the second one.
Time passed by quietly while Yuan Zhou was filming the tofu sculpting.
He put away the knife, turned off the recording on his phone, and sent the video. After cleaning up the mess, Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up, change his clothes, and prepare the ingredients for dinner.
At dinnertime, there were more people than at noon. More and more people came to Taoxi Road in Chengdu.
Yuan Zhou was not moved. No matter how many customers there were, it made no difference to him. As long as they came at dinnertime, they were all customers. He just needed to try his best to serve delicious dishes.
"You are here, too." Lazy Guy saw Qin Peng at first glance.
"I want to eat the dishes cooked by Boss Yuan again." Qin Peng also saw Lazy Guy.
"Me too. The dishes cooked by Boss Yuan are super delicious. I came here at noon." Lazy Guy and Qin Peng were both in the last echelon.
"Um."
Qin Peng was not good with words. On hearing that, he just nodded his head and said nothing.
However, Lazy Guy had a cheerful personality and was a little friendly. Besides, he knew Qin Peng to some extent, so they started chatting. Of course, the topic was about how Boss Yuan was and how a new generation of fangirls was rising.
Two hours of dinnertime passed very quickly. Yuan Zhou let out a breath and planned to prepare for the pub later.
"I'd better tell Little Yan and Little Mao about the situation first and ask them to come to work again in ten days." After thinking it over, Yuan Zhou decided to set a two-day holiday for the sake of safety. That way, he could deal with any unexpected situations.
