Chapter 8 Cook fish over high heat, simmer chicken over low heat
Now Du Shaojie works in the canteen of the Heavy Industry Bureau. Su Dapeng went to the countryside for a year, and after returning, he joined a small hardware factory.
Qi Yan had nothing to do after high school. After her brother went to the army, she stayed with her parents, idle all day, acting like a "big sister".
Fortunately, although she often makes trouble, she has a bottom line after all.
"What's the matter? The sky hasn't fallen."
Du Shaojie walked into the house and sat on the bench, making a joke.
Su Dapeng rolled his eyes at him unhappily, and then said: "Dai Jianguo and Li Heizi from our factory are close friends. I heard that he asked Li Heizi to find more people to deal with you."
"Dai Jianguo? This guy hasn't given up yet!"
Du Shaojie just taught Dai Jianguo a lesson in the morning, but heard the news that the other party was planning to seek revenge in the evening.
The public security these days is not as good as he imagined, and the relevant departments are too lazy to deal with ordinary fights, of course, the premise is that they do not cause disability or death.
"I have already told Yan Zi about this matter. Yan Zi told you not to worry. Her brother's classmate happens to be in charge of our factory. She will go to find someone tomorrow. When the time comes, she will scare Li Heizi a few words and guarantee that the other party will not dare to mess around."
Su Dapeng, this childhood friend, is impeccable. When he heard that Du Shaojie was in trouble, he went to find Qi Yan as soon as possible.
Qi Yan relied on her brother's reputation and connections, and no one dared to mess with her in Chunfeng Lane. The hot girl dared to fight and fight, and the key was that she could settle things. A large group of young people admired her.
She would not ignore the affairs of her best friends, so after listening to Su Dapeng, she took the responsibility directly.
"Why did you tell Yan Zi about such a small matter? You know her temper. Forget it, I won't say anything. You mean well. I'll go find her when I have time. Don't let anything happen to her because of me."
Du Shaojie saw that Su Dapeng was really worried about him, and he couldn't bear to blame him for not discussing it with him before going to Qi Yan.
Strictly speaking, Qi Yan is not a social person. She is idle. She is neither high nor low in work. In addition, she has been influenced by her brother since she was a child and likes to solve problems with fists.
He is not worried that Qi Yan will suffer, but he is worried that Qi Yan will not bring people to beat Dai Jianguo.
At this time, there was another knock at the door. Speak of the devil, and the devil will appear. Soon Qi Yan and another girl followed Su Dapeng into the house.
"Shaojie, you are here too. It just so happens that I have something to tell you, so I don't have to make another trip."
Qi Yan is younger than Du Shaojie and Su Dapeng. She is tall and neither fat nor thin, with a ponytail tied behind her head. She has fair skin, big eyes, and a straight nose. She is a picture when she stands there.
She is a very pretty girl, and you can't see the aggressive personality under her quiet appearance.
The girl who came with her is Liang Meiqin, Qi Yan's best friend. Du Shaojie and Su Dapeng both know her.
Du Shaojie stood up and greeted the two of them. Qi Yan sat down and explained her purpose.
She originally wanted Su Dapeng to call Du Shaojie out, but she didn't expect to run into him here. As for why she didn't go to Du Shaojie in person, it's a long story. The root lies in Wang Yuxiu's attitude.
Who wants to go to someone's house to see a cold face, right?
"I have asked someone to warn Li Heizi not to interfere in the matter between you and Dai Jianguo. Shaojie, how about I ask someone to give Dai Jianguo a good beating? I have disliked that kid for a long time."
Qi Yan has such a temper. She will not take the initiative to bully others, but no matter who is bullied around her, she will not agree.
Dai Tong lives in the staff quarters of the Heavy Industry Bureau, but Dai Jianguo doesn't have that qualification. He lives nearby, specifically in the third lane north of Chunfeng Lane.
"Not really, not really. Yan Zi, listen to me, I'll be very grateful if you can find someone to warn Li Heizi, don't worry about what happened between me and Dai Jianguo."
Du Shaojie then told Qi Yan what happened in the unit's vegetable cellar, and Qi Yan couldn't help but widen her eyes as she listened.
Didn't she know what kind of personality her best friend had? As long as he wasn't pissed off, he would definitely be an honest guy.
Unexpectedly, facing the arrogant Dai Jianguo, Du Shaojie was not only not scared, but beat that guy up instead.
Perhaps, the honest guy was bullied so badly that his temperament changed.
"Hehe, it's so refreshing!"
Both of the best friends knew how Du Shaojie had been bullied in the past two years. Dai Jianguo's uncle Dai Tong was not a good person. What kind of ability was it to bully an apprentice all day?
This was also the important reason why Qi Yan and Su Dapeng were so concerned about this matter.
"Really?"
"Really!"
Seeing that Du Shaojie's attitude was very firm, Qi Yan gave up the idea of finding someone to teach Dai Jianguo a lesson.
Then everyone changed the topic. Qi Yan winked at Liang Meiqin, and Liang Meiqin went out and brought in a chicken from outside.
"We haven't gathered for a long time. Please make a dish so that we can eat and chat."
The chicken Liang Meiqin brought in had been slaughtered. Du Shaojie took a look and it weighed about two kilograms.
Su Dapeng smiled and took the whole chicken to the kitchen to soak it in water. He was still very free at home. His parents usually didn't ask about his affairs. When friends came, he would entertain them himself and eat whatever was available at home.
In terms of family conditions, Qi Yan's family was the best, Su Dapeng's family was not bad, and only Du Shaojie's family had a harder life.
Later, Du Shaojie got up and went to the kitchen.
The charcoal fire in the furnace had not yet gone out. Su Dapeng poked the stove open and added some small pieces of coal. The fire soon became strong.
"Dapeng, get me a few potatoes, two scallions, a piece of old ginger, and more chili skin."
Du Shaojie washed the chicken and asked Su Dapeng to prepare some side dishes.
He decided to make a big plate of chicken, which he learned from a chef in his previous life. He made it several times and thought it tasted good.
Wash the whole chicken, drain the water, and then chop it into small pieces. Then he searched for seasonings in the kitchen, including big anise, grass fruit, salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce, etc.
Although the seasonings were not complete, they could handle it.
Su Dapeng peeled and washed the potatoes, prepared the small seasonings, and Du Shaojie asked him to go out.
Cut the scallions into sections, slice the ginger, and gently pat the garlic without chopping it finely. Cut the chili skin into small sections with scissors, and the preparation work was completely completed.
Then heat the pan first, then add a little rapeseed oil to lubricate the pan.
Pour out the hot oil, add oil again, and when the oil temperature rises to 50% hot, put the hidden chicken pieces into the pan and stir-fry.
First, dry the moisture in the chicken, stir-fry thoroughly, then push the chicken aside, add star anise, grass fruit, ginger slices, peppercorns, garlic cloves, a little scallion, and stir-fry until fragrant, then mix the chicken together.
Then add hot water to the pot, just enough to cover the ingredients.
After the water boils, pour in soy sauce and a little salt to adjust the base flavor. Cook over high heat for about ten minutes, and the chicken will basically be well colored. At this time, adjust the damper, suppress the fire, cover and simmer over low heat.
Simmer chicken over low heat and cook fish over high heat, this is all talk of experience.
After Du Shaojie finished his work, he turned around and saw Qi Yan standing behind him.
In fact, Qi Yan had come a long time ago, but he was concentrating on cooking and didn't notice it.
Qi Yan thought Du Shaojie was the most handsome when he was cooking seriously. After knowing each other for so many years, this was the first time she was amazed.
She didn't realize that this honest guy had such a side.
