"Mingxuan is doing well now. His face changing technique is getting better and better. More importantly, his speed has also improved. In a few years, he can be considered a master," Si Jinning said.
"Fortunately, the people outside don't know that Mingxuan is your son. Otherwise, they would say that his family has a long history of learning," Si Jinning said calmly.
Seeing Chu Jianhua's expression change was like a Sichuan opera face changing, with all kinds of expressions on his face.
After a long while, Chu Jianhua finally calmed down the restlessness in his body. He felt that it would be better if he didn't see Si Jinning as much as possible in the future. Otherwise, his heart would overload and have problems sooner or later. In short, if he wanted to live a few more years, he had to stay away from Si Jinning.
"He's my son no matter what. It's his own business that he is talented," Chu Jianhua said calmly.
He could show it to anyone but Si Jinjing. With this thought in mind, Chu Jianhua quickly calmed down.
Si Jinning raised his eyebrows and a mischievous smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "That's not the main point. The main point is that Mingxuan will be going to Head Chef Yuan's restaurant to perform. Otherwise, how do you think I know that Mingxuan has made great progress?"
"That's what you get for making me angry when I was young. Now, the tables have turned," Si Jinning said happily.
"Alright, I'll go with you to eat the boat banquet you recommended today. I'll go tomorrow. Are you coming with me?" Chu Jianhua wasn't someone who only knew how to take a beating.
He also knew what Si Jinning was regretting.
Instantly, Si Jinning's complacent face turned bitter. He would regret it for the rest of his life.
Although he regretted it, Si Jinning still maintained his composure and said, "You will know how good Head Chef Yuan's culinary skills are when you go."
Even if he was kneeling, he still had to remain calm.
"I'll see then." Chu Jianhua wasn't in a good mood, but it was good to see Si Jinning being humiliated. Therefore, he looked forward to it.
It was mainly because he heard that his son was going to perform there that Chu Jianhua wanted to go. Although he was still a little angry that his son didn't choose him, it didn't stop him from admiring his son's talent.
In his heart, he was still a little proud. Chu Mingxuan didn't know this at all. Sometimes, a father and son would be entangled for a long time because of a single sentence.
"We can't wait any longer. We have to go now, or else we won't be able to line up." Si Jinning looked at the time. It was already four o 'clock. If they didn't go now, they wouldn't be able to eat today.
He couldn't care less about how much Chu Jianhua would eat. No matter how much he ate, he had to have something to eat. He wouldn't do something like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon.
"So early? Didn't you already make a reservation?" Chu Jianhua was really surprised.
Just now, he heard from Si Jinning that he had made a reservation for the banquet, so he thought that it didn't matter when he went. But now, Si Jinning was saying that he had to queue up. If he couldn't get in, he couldn't eat?
He knew about queuing up for meals, especially for someone as famous as Yuan Zhou. Indeed, he should queue up. When he performed, the whole place was filled with cheers. His friends often called him to ask for tickets.
However, that didn't mean that he had to reserve a seat. He could just come over directly. It was impossible for him to not arrive in time. At least, there was still some buffer time.
But now, he still had to queue up after making a reservation. If he couldn't get in, he wouldn't be able to eat. That was something new.
"Head Chef Yuan always abides by the rules of the restaurant. We have to follow them as well," Si Jinning said anxiously.
He urged Chu Jianhua to hurry up and prepare to go out. Everything else was unimportant in front of the delicacies cooked by Yuan Zhou.
When Chu Jianhua saw that Si Jinning was really anxious, he stood up and followed him to the restaurant.
At this time, Si Hongyuan, who had been acting as the background for the whole afternoon, could finally play his role as the driver.
The three of them rushed toward the restaurant. On the other side, Yuan Zhou and Sun Ji had finalized the various details of the contract.
As a proper restaurant, there had to be a special contract when hiring others to perform. This was in accordance with the rules, although the method of payment was very special.
Actually, it wasn't that Yuan Zhou hadn't thought of directly paying them. But because Zuo Zuo had set a precedent by using the restaurant's food as payment, Gao Hui strongly requested for the same treatment. The other masters also followed suit. How could their salary compare to Boss Yuan treating them to a meal for free?
Everyone had a tacit understanding and requested to use the restaurant's food as their salary. When Sun Ji heard the two methods of payment from Yuan Zhou, he chose to eat without hesitation.
Although Sun Ji didn't care about his desire for good food, he only cared about ordinary delicacies. The top-notch delicacies cooked by Yuan Zhou were definitely not in this category.
Sun Ji didn't feel any pressure when making such a decision. Even if his wife was here, she would also agree. After all, the food was really delicious. As long as they performed a few acts, they could eat until they were full without paying. They felt like they were the ones making the most out of this.
"I wonder how delicious the banquet prepared by Elder Si is going to be," Sun Ji thought to himself.
He felt his saliva start to flow out of his mouth. His previously bloated stomach was now empty. He seemed to be ready for his second meal.
"Sorry to trouble you, Boss Yuan." Sun Ji bowed slightly to Yuan Zhou and thanked him when he found everything was done.
Originally, he just wanted to take a look. Who knew that the more he chatted with Yuan Zhou, the more excited he became. As a result, he wasted the whole afternoon of Yuan Zhou's time. Sun Ji felt quite embarrassed.
"It's no trouble at all. It was a pleasure chatting with Master Sun today," Yuan Zhou said honestly.
Although Sun Ji wasn't a master in the culinary circle, he was a master in the folk art circle. It was always refreshing when he talked about various folk cultures. He was always a little touched by the Village Chef activity that Yuan Zhou was currently preparing. Therefore, if Yuan Zhou said it was a pleasure, it must be true.
After chatting for a while more, Sun Ji took his leave. As for Yuan Zhou, he had to start preparing the ingredients, so he didn't receive the reward first. As two people had booked the banquet today, there were a lot of things that needed to be prepared in advance. Therefore, he started preparing earlier than usual.
Therefore, after watching Sun Ji walk out of the restaurant, Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up, change his clothes, and enter the kitchen.
Apart from Si Jinning who booked the banquet today, the other person was Wuhai. He heard that Si Jinning booked the boat-boat banquet. Once he heard that it was something he hadn't eaten before, he directly followed up without any hesitation. After all, it was all delicious food.
Therefore, Wuhai, who was present at the scene, strongly expressed his desire to book the boat-boat banquet.
Of course, in order to successfully book the banquet, Wuhai also put in a lot of effort. After all, only a proper reason could be used to book the banquet.
This was the rule. There were no exceptions.
In the end, his good brother, the naughty kid, contributed a reason. Although the naughty kid's birthday had passed in the solar calendar, it would soon be his lunar birthday. There was no rule that a person couldn't have two birthdays.
Because they were all real birthdays, some people celebrated the lunar calendar, some celebrated the solar calendar, and some celebrated both. Therefore, he successfully booked the banquet in the end. Of course, there was an extra reason.
