Chapter 42: Whole Cow Banquet
Ying Hai stood in front of the stove, watching Qin Huiyin show off her cooking skills.
Qin Huiyin was not afraid of him watching. Not to mention that he was just an amateur, even if he was an expert, he would not be able to learn these cooking skills easily.
Tang Luwu was responsible for keeping an eye on the pot of beef soup.
Song Ruize was in charge of looking after the pot of braised meat.
The people arranged by Ying Hai were either watching the fire, cutting vegetables or kneading dough.
The others who were busy nearby came over. However, as soon as they came over, they were driven away by Ying Hai. It seemed that Ying Hai had not lied to them just now. The people here were indeed divided into several camps. At least Ying Hai was afraid of the people of the chief butler who were in competition with the second butler.
"What is this?" Ying Hai was drooling.
"Beef stewed with potatoes." Qin Huiyin responded.
"What are you doing now?"
“Make beef buns.”
"What about this?"
The time was almost up, so Qin Huiyin no longer hid the secret from them and directly reported the dishes she had made.
"This is boiled beef, cumin beef, beef offal soup, braised beef head, grilled beef bones, grilled beef skewers, and the main point is to introduce this fried steak. This fried steak should be eaten fresh out of the pan, so I have to wait until the host notifies me to serve the dishes before I start grilling it. You see this, beef buns. In addition to beef, there are also several kinds of vegetables that I prepared myself. It is absolutely delicious and unique..."
"Sister, I apologize for my previous behavior of looking down on you. I can't ignore you just because you are young. Now I believe what you say. If you are not from a family with a family background, then you are a true genius." Ying Hai said excitedly, "I will go find the second butler, you guys continue to be busy, and come over when the food is served."
Song Ruize looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression.
It's still the same face, why has her eyes changed completely?
In the past, she looked at him with the same disgust as everyone else, but now not only is that gone, she even always takes the initiative to show kindness to him.
What does a person go through to completely become another person?
Moreover, she had lived in his house for a year, not to mention cooking, she had not even swept the floor once. She and her mother were parasites who enjoyed being served by men, and only that old man would be blinded by beauty. In his opinion, the mother and daughter would die miserably sooner or later because of his greed.
However, after only a few months away from the Song family, her attitude towards the Tang family was completely different. Could it be that they lived a serious life in the Tang family, but just muddled through in the Song family?
Song Ruize approached Tang Luwu and asked in a low voice: "What kind of stimulation did she suffer some time ago?"
Tang Luwu trembled and said nervously: "No...no..."
Tang Luwu was afraid of him.
In fact, few people in the village were not afraid of him. He was the one who once bit off the ear of a boy who bullied him!
"You see her every day, don't you think she has changed recently?"
"She hit her head a while ago, but she stopped being angry after she woke up. I heard her trying to persuade Aunt Li to live a good life with my father. She must have thought it through and wanted to have a family."
Song Ruize sneered.
Now that I want to live a good life, what were you doing before?
Didn't the old man Song Yi treat them badly? Even if his heart was made of stone, he should have been warmed up, right? As soon as he left, the mother and daughter sold their only property.
Forget it, there’s nothing to think about those old things.
As long as the mother and daughter don't provoke him again, considering that she has helped him several times, he will let the previous accounts go and won't bother with them.
The second butler arrived soon.
When he saw the huge whole-beef feast, the wrinkles on his face were all transformed into smiles.
"Ying Hai, go tell Master Zhong to say a few words for us in front of the master so that we can serve the whole beef feast."
Ying Hai hurried to the front yard. Not long after, a well-dressed young man came over. After looking at all the dishes, he pointed at the whole beef feast made by Qin Huiyin and said, "Our master wants to eat something new. He has never seen these dishes before. Send them all over!"
Qin Huiyin got the information and started frying the steak.
She fried it on the stove. As the steak sizzled in the pan and the aroma spread, the young man who had not left yet came over curiously and watched Qin Huiyin cook skillfully.
"Did you cook all the dishes today?" The young man was obviously suspicious.
Qin Huiyin admitted openly: "I am the head chef, and the others help me."
"You are so young, but your cooking skills are really good." The young man recognized her cooking skills. "Our master likes this. He has been to so many places and tried all kinds of delicious food. Ordinary things can't attract him. But I know his preferences. With your cooking skills, he must like it. Don't leave in a hurry, wait for the reward!"
"Thank you for your advice, brother." Qin Huiyin picked up the grilled beef skewers from the side. "I feel like these skewers are a little bland. Brother, try it and see if you need some salt."
The young man took the beef skewer, took a bite, and immediately his face was full of enjoyment: "It's so delicious. Little girl, if you open a store, your business will definitely be booming!"
"Thank you for your good wishes, big brother." Qin Huiyin said with a smile, "Please remind your master that this steak must be eaten hot. The sauce next to it is the sauce. Add more or less according to your preference. It is best to use a knife to cut it into small pieces, so that it can taste more delicious."
After finishing the last pot of frying steak, Qin Huiyin took off her apron.
Tang Luwu handed her some clean water and wiped the sweat off her face with a handkerchief: "Thank you for your hard work, Yinyin."
"It's finally completed successfully." Qin Huiyin said, "Why are the others still here?"
Qin Huiyin was so engrossed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice that the other people in the kitchen hadn't left yet.
Tang Luwu lowered her voice and said, "They have been watching you cook. They must want to learn from you."
Qin Huiyin noticed that several people looked at her fiercely, as if she had stolen their wives.
However, as a woman, she certainly would not steal their wives. What they are worried about is that she will steal their jobs!
"Everyone, the second butler asked me to take you to have some rest. Please come this way." A waiter appeared and led the way for them.
"Thank you." Qin Huiyin said with a smile.
When they arrived at the room the waiter had led them to, they saw Mr. Tang San holding a jar of wine and drinking. He had drunk quite a bit, his face was flushed, and his eyes were somewhat distracted.
"Third Uncle, why do you drink so much?" Qin Huiyin took the wine jar from his hand.
Mr. Tang San said with a big tongue: "The second housekeeper said that we should stay here tonight, so I thought I would stay here, so I indulged myself and drank a few more cups."
"Did he say that we should stay here?" Qin Huiyin was surprised.
"Yes, he sent someone to tell us that it was too late and it was inconvenient for us to go out and find a place to stay, so he asked us to stay here. This is what he can do."
