Chapter 262 Chef Jiangcun
"Of course I'll wait for you!" Yu Yingying said with a smile, as she placed a piece of food on her friend's plate.
Chien Tzu-yu, who had just peeled shrimp for her girlfriend, couldn't help but glance at Yu Ying-ying.
It's been like this since school.
If he hadn't gone to the same high school as his girlfriend, they wouldn't have gotten together so early on.
I bet the girls in their dorm wish he didn't exist.
However, An Songyu, who was already used to this, didn't care.
She knew that the two of them would soon go their separate ways.
Because she is not someone who likes to rely on others for care.
Sure enough, once An Songyu was seated and began to enjoy the food, the two people next to her barely spoke to her, let alone took care of her.
This was An Songyu's habit.
She loves food!
I always become extra focused when it comes to delicious food.
Moreover, she enjoys trying all kinds of food.
With a feast like this, she would focus on savoring each dish.
Then, based on how much they like each dish, they give them different kinds of pampering.
Of course, in a meal like this, she would almost never have the chance to taste the same dish three times.
And today's chef may be a local from Jiangcun, but he is a local.
But his local Shuncheng dishes were indeed authentic.
Even An Songyu thought it tasted better than ever before.
“I think so too!” Not far away, An Songxiang immediately agreed after An Songyu once again noticed and praised her.
The others at the same table couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"Is the head chef of your grand banquet really just from Jiangcun?" An Songxiang's friend even asked directly.
"What, does it not look like it?" An Songyu had already filled her stomach.
He was now sipping a bowl of soup, chatting with a few people as he did so.
At their table sat An Songyu and her sister, along with all the guests invited besides the Jian couple.
So they're all young people.
They introduced themselves to each other before the meal.
The person who spoke just now was called A-Yang. He smiled and pointed to the plate.
"Although the plating was a bit rough, neither the tableware nor the taste was like it at all."
"That's probably because our village was developing agritourism before it was demolished," An Songxiang replied without hesitation, tilting her head slightly.
"Moreover, these plates were specially bought for this grand banquet," An Songyu added.
She was not involved in these matters.
But with a well-informed aunt around, I could hear about it from time to time.
Everyone else nodded in understanding, but one person said regretfully:
"After that, it'll probably be hard to find his cooking skills again!"
“No way!” The An sisters shook their heads in unison.
"Many of the newly opened food stalls near Changqiao are run by people from our village."
"Yes, and there are many other places in Rongdi where shops are run by people from our village."
In the food industry, it can be said that among all the people of Jiangcun, apart from the young people, it is the most suitable industry for them to develop after leaving Jiangcun.
To be honest, the young people and women of Jiangcun were most influenced by An Songyu and his family.
From before the Lunar New Year to after, all sorts of shops, big and small, have opened.
It's fair to say that you can see them everywhere, including Rongdi Pedestrian Street.
But those who were truly most deeply influenced by them were the generation that originally served as the pillars of Jiangcun.
They were almost all around the same age as An Jianping and his brothers.
Back in Jiangcun, they were the heads of the household.
Almost all of them run agritainment businesses, orchards, fishponds, etc.
However, for a considerable period of time after the demolition of Jiangcun, they held a huge amount of demolition compensation.
But they have virtually no idea what the future holds.
But with An Songyu's large family, they went from buying houses to rebuild, to buying houses to rebuild for the villagers.
Later, they even started their own company and began investing in building houses in other places.
They were also greatly inspired.
Therefore, based on the different personalities of the villagers and the differences in their skills...
From street food stalls to snack shops.
From morning tea houses to late-night snack stalls, Jiangcun locals can be found almost everywhere.
These people were the generation that Jiangcun used to support their families.
They are the ones who are truly supporting the family in Jiangcun today.
Yu Yingying, who had gone to help others that morning, suddenly realized:
"So, were all those people busy over there this morning your villagers who work in the catering industry?"
An Songyu didn't notice who was doing the work.
But just thinking about it, it's obvious that in a situation like this, the only people who would be willing to go into the kitchen are probably those people.
An Songyu nodded affirmatively.
"If their skills are this good... Ah Xiang, where is the shop of your Jiangcun people?" An Songxiang's friends immediately asked.
When they learned that most of them were in Rongdi, they felt somewhat regretful:
"Why didn't the people in your village think about expanding their business further afield?"
"Yes, such good skills are such a waste!"
"From Jiangcun in the past to Rongdi now, for them, this business has already gone quite far," An Songyu reminded them helplessly.
Before Jiangcun was demolished, these villagers probably never imagined in their lives that they could do business outside of Jiangcun!
"It's a real pity. If we had been able to visit your Jiangcun before it was demolished, we might have been able to taste such excellent craftsmanship long ago."
An Songyu and the others largely agreed with this statement.
"Yes, it's a pity, Jiangcun has already been demolished."
Although back then, there weren't many farmhouses in Jiangcun that could offer the same level of culinary skills as they do today.
But what makes Jiangcun memorable is not just the craftsmanship of its agritainment businesses.
After the long meal, the An Songyu sisters helped clear the table.
But this time the table wasn't empty.
The diligent property management staff dragged over boxes full of fruit, snacks, and fruit platters.
Every table was set up without being empty.
In addition, freshly brewed hot tea was also served.
Along with it, there was also a thermos filled with boiling water.
After An Songyu and her sister finished their work, the second wave of the dragon dance had already begun.
At this point, it's already past lunch break time.
It just so happens that the timing coincides with the time they discussed with the property management when they were preparing to hold a housewarming banquet in Jiangcun.
However, considering that the long time that was supposed to be a perfect time for a lunch break was actually when everyone was eating.
An Songyu didn't know if other residents in the community would be disturbed by them.
But so far, no property management staff have come to remind us.
I imagine quite a few residents in the community have indeed joined in!
An Songyu had no idea how accurate her guess was.
On the other side of the community, the tables that were originally planned were not fully set up.
Later, the village committee members thought the empty space looked unsightly.
They simply borrowed some from the family of someone who ran a food stall in the village.
This was all contributed by everyone.
After all, today is a grand event in Jiangcun.
But there are other employees at the food stall.
The business won't simply close down just because the owner isn't there.
The tables that could be borrowed were all temporarily taken from various food stalls.
