The Imperial Chef's Restaurant
As the president of a listed company, Su Jie has a 70-year-old father and an 8-year-old daughter. His family is happy and harmonious. Apart from company matters, he rarely has anything to worry about.
But Su Jie felt that something was wrong with his daughter Su Xia.
His daughter Su Xia is very cute and has just started primary school. She is very sensible and listens to him and his wife every day. Her grades in all courses are always among the best in the class. She has always been the child that people in the community talk about.
Su Xia is the perfect daughter that many parents want to have, and Su Jie has always been satisfied with Su Xia's excellence.
Although his father was becoming more and more like a naughty boy, causing trouble for him every day and always arguing with him, giving him a headache, he felt that the world was a beautiful place when he thought of his well-behaved and obedient daughter.
Logically speaking, Su Jie shouldn't have doubted Su Xia, after all, she was very well-behaved.
But just yesterday, when he finished all his work as usual and asked the driver to drive him to his daughter's elementary school, he met the parent of Su Xia's classmate - Jiang Zhou's mother.
Su Jie knew Jiang Zhou's mother. Because of their overlapping business, he once had a friendship with Jiang Zhou's father. So after accidentally meeting Jiang Zhou's mother, he started chatting with her.
Jiang Zhou's mother hesitated and said, "Do you come to pick up your daughter from school every day? Don't you feel tired? I am different from you. I often don't have time to pick up my own son."
Su Jie said: "It's not tiring actually. The reason why I have time to pick her up is that some meaningless drinking parties can be turned down. The food is average and the alcohol is harmful to the body. I pick up my daughter from school every day and take my father out for dinner. I'm used to it."
After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Su Jie felt that enough was enough, so he prepared to leave. But Jiang Zhou's mother stopped him, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Su Jie asked curiously, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
Jiang Zhou's mother thought for a moment and said, "Since you come to pick up your daughter from school every day, do you think your daughter's recent behavior is suspicious?"
When Su Jie heard about his daughter, he became nervous and said seriously, "If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"It's like this." Jiang Zhou's mother said, "I rarely picked up Jiang Zhou from school before. This has always been the responsibility of our driver. Recently, our driver told me that one day he came earlier than the agreed time, but found that Jiang Zhou was not waiting for him in the classroom. He was very anxious and worried that Jiang Zhou was lost, so he went out to look for him. As a result, he found that Jiang Zhou and a group of classmates, including your daughter, had returned from outside the school. And when they returned to the class and saw the driver, they looked panicked."
“This has happened several times.”
In order to prevent their children from getting lost, this group of parents repeatedly told their children to wait for someone in the classroom and never leave the school without permission.
When Su Jie first heard what Jiang Zhou's mother said, he didn't believe it at all. His daughter was so well-behaved and never did anything like her father did, causing trouble for him. For example, she clearly couldn't eat foods with high levels of sugar, oil, and salt, but she insisted on secretly going to Bai Ji Restaurant to eat without telling him and the nanny.
However, even though he condemned his father, he could no longer stand up straight and teach his father sternly, because he had also become a loyal customer of Bai Ji Restaurant. Even if he had to turn down social engagements, he would still go to Bai Ji Restaurant to punch in.
Su Jie didn't believe that his daughter would sneak out of school, but when he saw Jiang Zhou's mother's serious look, it didn't seem like she was lying at all.
Moreover, reason told him that their family had no relationship with Jiang Zhou's mother, so what was the point of Jiang Zhou's mother making up lies?
There must be something wrong here.
Su Jie plans to conduct an investigation today to find out what is going on.
Su Jie arrived at the gate of the primary school an hour in advance, accompanied by not only Jiang Zhou's mother but also other parents. They had all heard what Jiang Zhou's mother had said and wanted to find out the truth about the matter.
There were nine of them in total, and they were a big target. They didn't dare to get too close to the primary school gate, and only dared to look at the school gate from across the road.
“It’s out! It’s out!”
When the bell rang, a group of little kids with schoolbags on their backs came out. Although there were so many people that it was easy to be dazzled, Su Jie could tell who was his own little kid at first glance because he was his biological son.
Instinctively, he wanted to go over and hug the other person, but someone suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Don't go. If we go over now, we'll be exposed."
Su Jie has always been steady, and only loses his composure when it comes to family matters. After being reminded by others, he understood the stakes, so he stopped and nodded solemnly: "Okay."
They were sneaking around like spies, staring at the pupils opposite them. When the pupils looked at them unconsciously, they dodged and turned around quickly to hide their faces.
Passersby cast strange looks at them, as wary as if they were looking at human traffickers.
Su Jie: “…” How embarrassing.
The employees in his company would never guess that he was doing such a shameful thing.
But soon Su Jie could no longer pay attention to the expressions of passers-by, because Su Xia really did not stay in the classroom and ran out of the school.
Su Xia stood in front of the eight primary school students, full of leadership style, and raised his hand to command: "Let's go to Baiji Restaurant!"
Zhou Hang licked the lollipop in his hand: "Soup dumplings are delicious, I eat them every day, but we are in a hurry to go to Baiji Restaurant, and we haven't eaten spicy noodles for a long time. Let's buy spicy noodles and then eat soup dumplings."
Su Xia waved her hand, denying what Zhou Hang said: "We are not eating soup dumplings today. I asked my pretty sister a few days ago, and she said that a new product, braised lion's head, will be launched soon. Let's go eat lion's head today. Don't buy spicy noodles, save some space for the braised lion's head."
"Lion head? Is it the head of a lion in the zoo? The boss sister is really amazing. She can actually catch a lion and then cut off its head to cook. The lion's head is so big, how big a bowl should be to hold it?" Zhou Hang's eyes lit up.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhou couldn't help but snort and laugh: "Idiot, how could it be placed directly on the plate? The lion's head must have been cut into small pieces, just like cutting steak into pieces."
When the other students heard what Jiang Zhou said, they suddenly realized: "You are amazing, why didn't I think of it."
Jiang Zhou felt very proud when he heard others' praise.
Su Xia, who knew more, didn't know what to say, so he rubbed his face and said, "Forget it, you will know when you get there. Lion's head is not made of lion meat, but pork."
However, the other pupils did not believe what Su Xia said: "If it is made of pork, why is it called Lion's Head?"
Su Xia wanted to explain, but after glancing at her watch, she realized that she was running out of time, so she urged, "Let's go quickly, we'll be running out of time. Let's go quickly and return to the classroom early, so the parents won't notice."
So a group of elementary school students with schoolbags came to Baiji Restaurant and each ordered a lion head.
The white stew pot was intact and the ceramic lid was closed, so Jiang Zhou couldn't see what was inside at all.
After getting the stewing pot, Jiang Zhou couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
This thing called lion head can't be the soup we often drink at home. Jiang Zhou regretted buying lion head instead of soup dumplings as usual, because soup dumplings look cooler.
Jiang Zhou stretched out his hand in disappointment and picked up the ceramic lid on the stew pot. The huge lion head inside instantly came into view, causing Jiang Zhou's hand to pause in the air.
Wow, it’s so big!
Jiang Zhou is only eight years old this year, with baby fat on his face and small hands. Jiang Zhou feels that the lion's head is even bigger than his hands.
The lion's head was not only big, but also incredibly round, and the surface looked extremely smooth, very much like a ball, and did not look like it was made of minced meat at all.
Jiang Zhou was immersed in the shock of seeing the huge meatball until his hand holding the ceramic lid became sore from having been in the air for too long, and then he put down the ceramic lid.
He felt a little embarrassed for his loss of composure, so he turned around to look at his companions and found that they looked the same, even more exaggerated than he did.
After seeing the full picture of the lion's head, the others even made wow sounds, their eyes couldn't move away from the lion's head at all, and their greed began to clamor immediately.
"It's so cool! I feel like the lion's head is bigger than my mouth. I definitely can't finish it in one bite. I need to eat many bites."
"It smells so good! I thought soup dumplings were the most fragrant thing, but I didn't expect lion head dumplings to smell so good. Slurp, slurp, my saliva is flowing."
In order to eat soup dumplings better, Jiang Zhou practiced using chopsticks at home for a long time. He would dream about using chopsticks at night. Now he can use chopsticks very well.
But he usually doesn't eat much, only half a bowl of rice. But after careful observation, he found that this lion head eats more than he usually does.
Can he really finish this lion head?
Jiang Zhou picked up the chopsticks uncertainly, poked open the lion's head carefully, picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. He was instantly amazed by the taste of the lion's head and was speechless.
Too soft.
The lion's head is made from the best pork ribs, with the lean meat and fat separated and cut into pieces as big as pomegranate seeds. The meat filling is beaten hard, and the gelatin of the pork is fully beaten out. The meat pieces stick together without any signs of separation. It is incredibly soft and tender like tofu, and melts in your mouth.
Although the inside of the lion's head is soft, the outside is firm. The lion's head does not have a monotonous texture of softness, but a combination of softness and toughness. The more you chew, the more you can feel the delicious and mellow flavor of the pork.
So fresh!
Considering their young age, the stew pot was specially cooled for a while before being served. The temperature of the contents in the white porcelain stew pot was just right.
The deliciousness of chicken soup, the sweetness of baby cabbage, and the mellowness of pork are blended together at the perfect temperature, bursting with an incomparable freshness that makes people want to swallow their tongue.
Jiang Zhou felt like every cell in his brain was clamoring that it was delicious. He couldn't stop putting the lion's head into his mouth at all. He was completely immersed in the world of lion's head.
After Jiang Zhou had eaten his fill, he realized that he had eaten too fast and beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose.
He originally thought that he could not finish the lion's head, after all, it was a bigger meal than he usually ate. But now, he found that he had eaten all the lion's head, even the vegetables that he usually didn't like to eat, and there was no soup left in the bowl.
What embarrassed him was that he didn't feel full. If he had another serving of lion's head, he felt that his stomach would be able to hold more.
This made him a little confused. After repeated thinking, he finally realized that his appetite changed with the taste of the food. The food made at home was not as delicious as this lion head. He felt full after eating the amount his mother told him to eat, just like completing a task, and he couldn't eat anything more. However, the lion head he just ate made him realize that his appetite could be so big.
The primary school students finished eating the lion heads at an unprecedented speed, leaning back in their chairs and rubbing their stomachs with satisfaction, savoring the lingering taste in their mouths.
After Su Xia happily finished eating the lion's head, she said to the other pupils: "Now you know, lion's head is not lion meat, but pig meat."
What shocked Su Xia was that the elementary school students, including Jiang Zhou, kept shaking their heads, and in order to show their seriousness, the arc of their heads was particularly large.
"Humph, lion's head meat is not pork. Such delicious meat is definitely not pork."
"I've eaten pork before, but how could pork taste like this? So lion's head must be made from lion meat."
"You must be lying to us. We don't believe you. This is not the taste of pork my mother cooks."
Su Xia was very angry when she heard that they didn't realize their misunderstanding and even accused her of lying to them. When she wanted to change her friends' misunderstanding, she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
Su Xia thought it was her classmate, and without even turning her head, she said angrily, "Don't bother me, I'm talking to my friend. Even if my dad comes, you can't disturb me."
After she spoke, the other party really stopped bothering her. Su Xia felt that her words had worked.
Just as she was about to continue talking to her friends and let them know what the lion's head was, she suddenly felt weightless.
She looked down and found that she had left the bench without knowing when, and her feet were suspended in the air, far away from the ground.
"Who are you? Don't touch me."
Su Xia said impatiently, then turned around and suddenly found that the person behind her looked very familiar.
Su Jie picked up Su Xia, with an inexplicable look on his face: "Even if Dad comes, he can't disturb you? Huh?"
Su Xia, who was just showing off to Su Jie: "..."
I regret it now, very much.
………………………………
The situation of other elementary school students is not much better than Su Xia.
Their parents followed Su Jie and walked into Bai Ji Restaurant angrily, grabbing them like chickens.
The primary school students were unable to resist the adults and could only surrender and confess the crime.
They were so scared that their faces turned pale, and because their parents didn't let them make any noise, they couldn't cry loudly and could only sob quietly.
A little boy lowered his head and wiped his tears: "Wow, I don't know anything. I don't know why I am not in the classroom, and I don't know why I am here. Maybe I am dreaming."
Another little girl looked up at her mother, her big eyes filled with confusion: "Mom, this is not my fault. I got lost, so I walked here."
However, this group of parents followed them all the way and saw them come out of the school skillfully, cross the road skillfully, and enter Bai Ji Restaurant skillfully. They did not stop to think at all. Only a fool would believe that they were lost. It was obvious that they were a habitual offender.
"I saw how happy you were when you were eating, and you still had the nerve to tell me you knew nothing. Sorry, I know everything. Not only do I know what you did, I also know that you deserve a beating now."
"You're so skilled at using money to buy things, but you said you were lost. Do you think I'm stupid? Look at this bowl. You licked it cleaner than your face."
