Chapter 29 Rewards
Mr. Qi nodded.
"That's a Pingzhou specialty, not expensive, but we don't have a lot here, so I'm sorry to bother you."
Although the old man doesn't care about these things, he comes from a wealthy family and likes vegetarian food, so he is very familiar with these top-quality ingredients.
Qi Boyuan and his wife were very angry at the moment. The second son had clearly fallen out with the old man years ago, but now he was pretending to be a filial son and grandson. Isn't it shameful?
He gave Chef Sun a lot of benefits before he made up his mind to postpone the birthday banquet.
But he didn't expect that the second son just found a chef from a farm house, and the old man liked him so much. This really made him very angry. If he had known this, he would have let Sun Da do it, and the old man would not have been so surprised.
"This is the staple food, noodles with pickled mustard greens and bamboo shoots."
When the last main course came, Mr. Qi was actually a little full. According to his previous habit, he should not eat anymore at this time.
Moreover, snow vegetables are pickled and are unhealthy to eat.
But the old man really appreciated the previous dishes and was still not satisfied.
So he tried the noodles anyway.
Local people don’t eat noodles very often, so they are not very good at making noodles, and the noodles they make are usually not chewy enough.
So the chef puts all his thoughts into the toppings and soup base, hoping to come up with something new.
This bowl of noodles with pickled mustard greens and bamboo shoots looks very simple, but the pickled mustard greens have a unique salty fragrance, and the bamboo shoots are refreshing and sweet. I don’t know how the soup base is made, but it is full of mushroom flavor and tastes very refreshing.
If anyone has been to Fenghuang Temple and eaten the vegetarian food there, they will find that the noodles there are almost exactly the same as this bowl of noodles.
No, it’s not the same, but better, because the snow vegetables in this bowl of noodles are very refreshing and more delicious, without any bitterness.
The old man had a big appetite and finished the noodles in no time.
He still felt it was not enough. The noodles were so delicious, but the chef only gave him a little bit, making him feel like he couldn't afford it.
He had completely forgotten about health and was eager to eat several big bowls of food.
…
In the kitchen, Bai Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief.
He had completed the task, and now she could leave after everyone finished their meal and paid.
But after relaxing, Bai Mengmeng suddenly felt a little hungry. After all, he hadn't eaten anything all day.
Although there are a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, they all belong to other people, and she will not use them without permission.
"Hey, why is the good tea man gone?"
Bai Mengmeng then remembered her eldest disciple, who had been busy the entire afternoon and only felt hungry now, so he naturally forgot about the good tea.
He has a big appetite and usually eats a lot. He must be very hungry now, and I don't know where he ran off to.
The aunt next to her said, "That young man went to the storage room. You can go over there and take a look."
Bai Mengmeng said thank you and hurried to find someone.
The layout of the kitchen is quite complicated. There is a large cabinet inside and a small storage room at the back, which is usually used to store things that can be stored at room temperature.
Bai Mengmeng walked over and found Liangcha squatting on the ground, eating peanuts.
Seeing Liangcha sitting there obediently, Bai Mengmeng actually felt a little surprised. This scene was like a good son who was waiting for his mother to get off work, which made her heart overflow with maternal love.
"Are you hungry?"
Liangcha took a look and handed the peanuts in his hand over: "Do you want to eat?"
These are already peeled peanuts.
Bai Mengmeng was touched that her good son was waiting to share with his mother and was not guarding the food at all.
"Xiao Pei is so good."
Liangcha withdrew his hand suddenly, stood up, and his eyes showed danger several times: "Something is wrong, why do you use this tone?"
Although he looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, he was still taller than Bai Mengmeng when he stood up, so the maternal love disappeared from her heart in an instant.
Bai Mengmeng said awkwardly: "No, I'm so hungry, give me something to eat."
Liang Cha was speechless: "I feel like you really treat me like a child."
However, he still put the peanuts in Bai Mengmeng's palm.
"I'm sorry..." Bai Mengmeng felt a little apologetic and didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.
"Master Bai, would you like to have some noodles?" The voices of the aunts came from outside.
Bai Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief and ran out quickly.
As expected, the cooking aunties added noodles, but the soup was watery with only some vegetables and not even an egg. Bai Mengmeng immediately lost her appetite: "Thank you for your kindness, I want to go home and eat."
She was exhausted after being busy for so long, so of course she had to eat meat.
Although she has no control over others insisting on being vegetarian, she still likes to eat meat very much.
She also decided to have barbecue later and would definitely order more skewers.
Liang Cha didn't know if he was too hungry, so he didn't eat the noodles. Instead, he stood behind Bai Mengmeng.
After a while, the dishes in the front were cleared away, and even the bowls in the back were sent back, which marked the end of the banquet.
Qi Xiuyuan walked over with a smile on his face.
"Boss, your cooking skills today really gave me a surprise."
Bai Mengmeng smiled. The more satisfied the customer was, the more generous the reward would be. Maybe she could even get two more roasted chicken legs later.
"Today's dishes look simple, but they are actually excellent. I have never seen the old man eat so much. He just asked me which chef prepared the meal." Qi Xiuyuan was delighted.
After a two-second pause, he continued, "I told the old man about your shop. He said it's no wonder that you have a Buddha-like look on your face. I'd like to invite a group of old friends to visit your shop when I have time."
Bai Mengmeng knew it would be a grand occasion and immediately became nervous.
If I found out that she was slacking off in the store every day and the menu was just perfunctory, I wonder if she would get angry and go crazy.
"Thank you for the compliment. My cooking is just average, but I appreciate your kindness."
"You're being too modest. The vegetarian dishes I made before, no matter how high-end they were, the younger generation would only try a few chopsticks and then stop eating. But this year, everyone almost ate them all."
After Qi Xiuyuan finished speaking, he took out a red envelope from his arms.
I originally wanted to transfer money, but Qi's mother said that Chef Bai was a great help and the dishes were delicious, so it would be more sincere to give him a big red envelope in person.
Qi Boyuan's dark face alone made him happy.
Bai Mengmeng felt that the red envelope was of great significance, and her smile became sincere. This was the feeling of making money, and she also started to say good things.
"Boss Qi, so generous!"
Because they wanted to go to the Phoenix Mountain Scenic Area, which was quite far away, Dad Qi simply arranged a driver.
We put the remaining ingredients and jars of pickled vegetables in the car, and after more than an hour, we arrived at Fenghuang Town.
Bai Mengmeng said, "Master, can you put us down and help us take the remaining things back to the store?"
The master said, "Are you going to buy something?"
Bai Mengmeng chuckled: "We actually planned to go have a barbecue."
After a busy day, this is a reward for myself.
