Hence, Lu Man followed along, wanting to personally make a soup for Han Zhuoli to nourish his body.
Auntie Liu's cooking was not bad, but it was still lacking compared to Lu Man's.
She went to the market with Auntie Liu to buy an old hen. One good thing about this small town in southern Yunnan was that there were many wild mushrooms and nourishing herbs.
After buying all the ingredients, she went to the hotel kitchen with Auntie Liu.
Auntie Liu borrowed the kitchen. Although she bought the ingredients herself, she still paid the hotel a fee for using their kitchen.
Auntie Liu was already familiar with the people in the kitchen, and their relationship was quite good.
As soon as she entered, she greeted the chef and the apprentices. The apprentices were all young children, and they all greeted her with smiles. "Auntie Liu, you're here!"
"Why did you bring a pretty lady this time?" asked an apprentice who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old.
In this small, remote town, many students of that age did not continue to go to school, but came out to look for work.
Auntie Liu laughed and scolded, "Stinky brat, you're already so flirtatious at such a young age. This is Miss Lu, my employer. She's also an actress in the Greedy Wolf Operation crew. "
"So she's a big star. No wonder she's so good-looking!"
Lu Man quickly waved her hands. "No, I'm a newcomer."
Lu Man followed Auntie Liu to the stove that had been vacated for them. Because Lu Man had to personally prepare dinner, Auntie Liu helped Lu Man.
The young apprentice beside her was surprised. "Miss Lu, you're doing it yourself?"
They had all heard that very few young girls in big cities knew how to cook.
Moreover, Lu Man was young and a star. To them, actors were all stars. Knowing how to cook was simply too shocking.
"Just call me Lu Man. You don't have to be so polite." Lu Man said with a smile. She had already neatly rolled up her sleeves, put on an apron, and cut open the chicken's stomach to dispose of the internal organs and blood.
Seeing her nimble movements, it was obvious that she was not a newcomer. The apprentices were surprised.
"I didn't expect you to really know how to cook!"
Auntie Liu laughed and said, "How can you say that!"
The other party scratched her head and laughed foolishly. "I just heard that young girls in big cities don't know how to cook."
"There are still people who know how to do it." Lu Man laughed. He quickly handled the chicken and washed it with boiling water to clean up the blood before putting it back into the pot.
She wrapped the rest of the warm nourishing herbs in gauze so that no residue would leak into the soup.
While cooking, he glanced at the soup from time to time, skimming off the foam and grease.
The soup wasn't done yet, and the essence of the chicken was still being stewed. The fresh aroma had already spread out.
"It's so fresh. Why does it taste different from the chicken soup we usually make?"
As he spoke, he stole glances at the head chef.
The middle-aged head chef slapped the back of his apprentice's head. "He's cooking for himself. Of course he'll do it with all his heart. He even put in so many expensive mushrooms and herbs. How can it not be fresh?"
They opened a business just to make money. Why would they be so meticulous?
If this pot were to be sold here, the price would be so high that only the rich could afford it.
However, the middle-aged head chef would never admit that Lu Man probably had some secret recipe. Otherwise, even if he put in the same ingredients, he wouldn't be able to produce such a fresh aroma.
Han Zhuoli was still asleep. Lu Man watched the fire and skimmed the grease off the chicken soup.
