Chapter 41 Steamed Winter Melon Soup
The woman in pink said that the food Ye Shuyi cooked was much more delicious than the working meals at the club.
Ye Shuyi suspected she had misheard. Club? Was it the kind of club she was thinking of? Or was it just an ordinary bar?
"Yan Yan." Jiang Jinyue called out and glanced at the woman in pink, probably to tell her to be careful with her words.
"Tsk, what's there to hide? There's nothing shameful about making money based on your own abilities. Youth and beauty are hard-earned assets, so it's normal to cash them in!" Jiang Zhiyan said nonchalantly.
This is very straightforward.
Her sister loved to be as graceful as a lotus emerging from clear water, while she had a lot of fun playing in the mud.
"Stop playing, be careful not to get into trouble. It's not like your family can't afford to support you." Jiang Jinyue got angry when she looked at her sister.
Ye Shuyi was thinking, they are sisters, why are they taking completely different paths?
She didn't know what to say when the sisters were arguing, so she just smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
"Boss Ye, who did you learn this skill from?" Jiang Zhiyan asked curiously while eating.
Ye Shuyi naturally couldn't claim to have traveled through time. She simply said, "When I was a child, I saved a master chef on the roadside. He wanted to thank me, but he had no money, so he passed on the cooking manual he had with him to me."
"Plus, my dad runs a gourmet restaurant, so naturally I have some cooking skills."
Jiang Zhiyan heard this and praised: "Ms. Ye is beautiful and kind-hearted. Good deeds will be rewarded."
The two chatted for a few more sentences and got along better and better.
Ye Shuyi discovered that the other person was a very lively person. Although he was in that kind of job, he was straightforward and cute, breaking Ye Shuyi's stereotype of that kind of job.
Jiang Zhiyan took Ye Shuyi's hand and shared with her the interesting things she had experienced in the club.
"You know what? There are all kinds of people in that club, from both the black and white worlds, gangsters, high-ranking officials, poor, rich, old, young, all kinds of people. I've come into contact with them all," Jiang Zhiyan said.
"Oh? What impressed you the most?" Ye Shuyi was curious.
"I'll talk about this later. Let me talk about something else first. Do you know why I work in the club? It's simply for fun. Don't be fooled by their serious appearance. They are just beasts in human clothing. They are willing to do anything for lust. I just want to see them take off their disguises," she said.
"You know what? As long as you confuse the other person, then this man will listen to you in everything. Isn't it amazing? However, I look down on most people. I just play along. If the man is young and handsome, I might be nicer to him." Jiang Zhiyan's eyes were proud and bewitching when she said this.
Ye Shuyi admitted that she had the ability to make any man fall under her spell.
"Oh, let me answer your last question. One time, a very handsome man came to our club. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked like a gentleman, but he was not. This piqued my interest."
Ye Shuyi was like a curious baby, holding her chin and listening to her description.
"So, I deliberately hung around in front of him. You know, the best hunter always appears in the form of prey." She said proudly.
Let’s look at Miss Jiang Jinyue again. Her gentle and peaceful face is no longer smiling, but is replaced by an expression of helplessness and disappointment.
How could she have such a sister?
But there's no way. Judging from their appearance, they must be relatives, so I can't deny them.
The sister who had to admit it continued, "He always looked so noble and arrogant. I thought he was some rich young man from some family. But it turns out he's not. He's a bank director. He earns a lot, but not much. Compared to those young masters, he's nothing."
Ye Shuyi suddenly felt that this description was a bit like...
Jiang Zhiyan ate a piece of sweet and sour pork and chewed it in her mouth, her cheeks bulging.
So cute.
"I'd been seeing him for a while, and I realized he was genuinely infatuated with me. As a woman who'd experienced a lot, how could I have taken him so seriously? Luckily, I'd have been deceived. He actually had a wife! She was an accountant at a garment factory. She dressed very shabbily, wearing old-fashioned shirts, had short hair, and was out of shape."
"After his wife found out he was having sex with me at the club, she came crying and made a scene. I finally had security kick them both out. What kind of people dared to come to me? That woman is a pitiful person, and that man is even more of a scoundrel."
Ye Shuyi keenly noticed something was wrong. The man was a bank accountant, and the woman was an accountant at a garment factory?
Aren’t this couple the son and daughter-in-law of the shop owner in Central?
"Wait a minute, Ayan, what's the name of the man you are talking about?" Ye Shuyi asked.
It can’t really be such a coincidence, right?
"Liu Yuxuan." Jiang Zhiyan recalled in her mind for a long time before speaking.
She had met so many people that she could hardly remember them all.
"Why are you asking this? To avoid him? Stay away from him if you meet him next time." She was curious.
"No, I think I know him. I bought a shop in Central and am renovating it. The owner's son and daughter-in-law are the bank director and the garment factory accountant respectively."
"Oh my God, what a coincidence?" Jiang Zhiyan was in disbelief, her eyes wide open.
What a small world!
Ye Shuyi wondered if she should tell the boss lady about this. However, this was someone else's family affair, so why should she, an outsider, get involved?
It’s amazing that the couple hasn’t broken up yet.
If it were her, she would beat the man to the point of paralysis on the spot.
Then divorce.
However, they already have a five-year-old child, so if they continue to live together for the sake of the child, it is understandable.
She'd better not care.
They chattered a lot, and finally Ye Shuyi left the table because she had to cook for the two big bosses.
Chen Nanfeng came to eat in person. Today's dishes were: salt-baked chicken, winter melon stew, chopped pepper fish head, barbecued pork, and baby cabbage in soup.
Some people may not have heard of winter melon soup.
To make winter melon soup, Ye Shuyi went to the market early in the morning to pick out the ingredients.
There are certain requirements for the shape of winter melon. It cannot be too tall or too short, too fat or too thin. The skin must be green with few lines. When you tap it, you can hear the echo and feel the rich juice inside.
After selecting, Ye Shuyi used a small knife to cut the front end of the winter melon. Quickly and neatly, the "lid" of the winter melon was cut off.
Then, she began to dig out the sac inside, making sure it was clean and leaving a layer of skin of moderate thickness, which is called "zhong".
Before adding various ingredients, the winter melon should be steamed in a pot for half an hour.
Why?
Because winter melon will release a lot of water when steamed, if you don’t steam the water out in advance, then when you put the ingredients in, the water will dilute the original aroma of the ingredients.
After steaming a qualified steamed dumpling, it is time to make the broth.
Add shrimp and crab to make it fresh.
Ham and chicken, very flavorful.
The shiitake mushrooms and scallops are quite fragrant.
Fresh lotus seeds and bamboo fungus are sweet and refreshing.
There are other ingredients, which are not listed here.
