Lin Jiaojiao walked up to him and continued, "After that, put the duck in a bowl, cover it with water, and steam it in a steamer for three hours. After three hours, it's done. The duck meat will be tender and fall off the bones, and the soup will be delicious."
"How do you know everything... Who are you? Who were your ancestors?"
"We are all ordinary people. Not only do I know all this, I also know the story behind this dish. Do you want me to tell you about it?"
"That's brilliant!" Manager Wang couldn't help but applaud and praise. He hurried forward, his face filled with uncontrollable excitement. "I knew I hadn't made a mistake!"
"Manager Wang, I..."
Manager Wang kicked Master Zhang, who was grabbing his pants, away without hesitation, his eyes full of coldness.
"What else is there to say? I've been so tolerant of you all these years, all because of your cooking skills. Tell me, what have you done? Such a big incident happened today, and you're still threatening everyone in the restaurant. Brothers, please send me to the Public Security Bureau!"
"Okay!"
Several people immediately took action and dragged the struggling Master Zhang out.
The ward suddenly became quiet.
"Actually, if you want this dish to be more flavorful, you can make the broth in advance and stew it with the flavorful broth. It will taste even better!"
"Indeed, using plain water can be a bit bland for some people with strong tastes. Master Lin, how did you come up with these methods? Are you really the heir of some family?"
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the chefs staring at her eagerly, smiled and shook her head. "Really not. Also, there's one thing I want to make clear, Manager Wang. Aside from the Taibai duck, some of the others are a little unfamiliar. I need to study them further. There are also a few dishes that could use some improvement, so I'd like to try them again."
"Okay, okay! Of course!"
Manager Wang looked surprised.
What Lin Jiaojiao and several chefs said just now, he had noticed a long time ago that several customers had indeed said that the taste was too light.
I just mention it to Master Zhang every time.
They always act so arrogant, saying that what has been passed down is the way it is and cannot be changed easily. Those people don’t even know what a good dish is!
But he didn't realize that society is developing and progressing, and people's tastes will naturally change accordingly.
“Cough cough cough!”
"Brother, are you awake?"
I heard the person on the hospital bed wake up.
Manager Wang immediately rushed over and looked at him with concern.
"How are you feeling? I'm so sorry. Although Master Zhang is indeed primarily responsible for this incident and we didn't know about it beforehand, it happened in the hotel after all, so it's related to us. We will cover all your expenses. If you need anything else, please let me know."
"that……"
Wang Cheng glanced at the people around him, his eyes fell on Lin Jiaojiao and he swallowed: "Actually, I woke up a long time ago, and I heard the dishes you mentioned just now. I have a request."
"What do you want?"
"Once all the recipes are finalized, can I be the first to try them?"
"Brother! It's already this late, why are you still thinking about eating?"
Wang Dong stood by with a helpless look on his face.
This elder brother is good in everything: good temper, good personality, never smokes or drinks, but the only thing about him is that he loves to eat.
If he hadn't liked the shrimp and mushroom soup so much today and hadn't drunk so much by himself, things wouldn't have ended up like this.
Wang Cheng chuckled and looked at Manager Wang expectantly: "Is it okay?"
"Of course it's no problem! It's great that you can forgive us and are willing to eat at our restaurant."
It was already late when we finished dealing with things here.
On the way back, the two children actually fell asleep in Ji Huaian's arms.
Put the child in the bedroom.
Lin Jiaojiao came out and prepared to wash her hands and cook: "You've been working all day and busy for so long. You must be hungry. I'll make something to eat."
"No, just a quick bite or two will be fine. I want to take you somewhere."
"Where are you going so late?"
“You’ll find out when you get there!”
Seeing Ji Huaian acting mysteriously, Lin Jiaojiao became curious: "But what about the children? I don't feel comfortable leaving them at home."
"The security here is very good. As long as the doors and windows are closed, nothing will happen. As for those two, there's no need to worry. They've been able to fall asleep as soon as they stick their heads to the pillow since they were young. No matter how loud the noise is, they won't wake up. Besides, the place we're going to is very close."
"Oh well."
The two of them simply filled their stomachs and went out.
There were no street lights in those days.
It wasn't as dark as I imagined when I came out late at night.
There was a full moon that was almost formed and countless stars in the sky, shining on the earth and covering it with a thin veil.
The sea breeze blew through the long path, dispelling the bustle and heat of the day.
The two of them quickly came to the back of the family area.
"What is that?"
From a distance, Lin Jiaojiao was attracted by the flickering light of stars.
Ji Huaian naturally took her hand, with surprise in his eyes, and quickened his pace to the edge of a dense forest: "This is what I want to show you!"
Yellow-green spots of light scattered around in groups of three or five floated around, covering the lush green plants and wild flowers around them, and dancing in the bushes high above.
Being in it, it feels like the galaxy is on earth!
"So beautiful!" Lin Jiaojiao couldn't help but admire, staring at these flying little guys with bright eyes.
When I was very young, I saw it in the grass near the welfare home.
Just not so much, and not so bright!
“It is very beautiful.”
Lin Jiaojiao regained her composure and looked at the person next to her. She had never expected him to have such a romantic side. "How did you know there were fireflies here?"
"Xiao Jiang told me about it recently. It's actually my first time here too, and I didn't expect it to be so beautiful!"
"Jiang Hao?"
"Yes, he said that many young men and women like to date here at night, so I thought I'd bring you here when I have time."
Lin Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows.
She said that it was not like Ji Huaian would often come to this kind of place.
"Don't move!"
Ji Huaian suddenly spoke, and Lin Jiaojiao froze in place.
I glanced to the side and found a flickering firefly on my shoulder.
Ji Huaian moved with great speed, holding it in his palm and sending it in front of Lin Jiaojiao.
Between my open fingers, I saw a small black insect with a yellow-green light flashing at the end of its tail. It was very cute.
"Do you know why fireflies glow?"
"have no idea."
"That's because they have a substance called luciferin and luciferase in their bodies. These two chemicals react in an oxygen environment, so every time it flashes, it's breathing."
"So that's how it is."
“It’s just a pity.”
