Mrs. Shen’s face was full of question marks.
What’s going on? Why is my chef starting to worry about being laid off?
Before Mrs. Shen could finish listening to the female chef's story... how the evil man Xu tyrannically, ruthlessly, and without any buffer occupied the kitchen that originally belonged to her, and kicked her out of the country like a female general who was humiliated after being defeated in the battle -
Mrs. Shen's two children arrived home.
One son and one daughter, both in junior high school, one in the third grade and one in the first grade. After the two little guys entered the house, they immediately poked their heads around to look for it.
"Mom, what delicious food did you make today? It smells so good!"
"I smelled it as soon as I got off the car!" The little girl raised her hand behind her brother.
"Today... uh, does it smell good?"
There was no smell in the living room. I have to say that the ventilation system in the mansion's kitchen was a bit too good, and it unexpectedly lost that special atmosphere of fragrance that could be smelled from ten miles away.
However, when the kitchen door was opened, this atmosphere returned.
“It smells really good!”
Mrs. Shen was stunned. The last time she smelled such an appetizing aroma was the last time.
Boss Shen smiled when he saw this: "This little brother of mine founded the Tianya Village Food Restaurant himself. All the chefs here are his disciples. In terms of cooking skills, I guess not many people can compare to him."
"But he looks to be in his early twenties at most!"
"If I'm correct, I should be only eighteen this year!"
Mrs. Shen finally understood why her female chef behaved like that... She probably had a broken heart. But this was good, after all, working in her house was stress-free, and over time, she had become somewhat complacent, so it was time to give her a little spur.
Soon, Master Xu's special 'Braised Chestnut Chicken', 'Matsutake Stewed Chicken', and 'Three Cups Chicken with Soy Sauce' were served on the table. Boss Shen's children looked at Chairman Xu curiously.
"Who are you? Are you the new chef?" asked Boss Shen's son.
"What chef! This is your father's good brother, call me uncle!"
"Uncle...Uncle." Brother Xiao Shen forced out these two words.
It was really difficult for him to call a guy who looked only a few years older than him uncle.
Little sister Shen was smart and called out sweetly, "Hello, brother!"
Chairman Xiao Xu gladly accepted this and said to Brother Shen: "To each his own, to each his own!"
“……”Brother Xiao Shen.
I always feel like something is not right.
"What a good little sister! Come, I'll pick up a chicken wing for you to eat!" Chairman Xiao Xu used a serving chopstick to pick up a piece of plump and meaty chicken wing for Xiao Shen.
"Thank you, brother!"
Sister Shen thanked me again and put the chicken wing in her mouth. As soon as she bit into it, her tongue was attracted by the rich taste, like a volcano erupting and lava flowing through her mouth. It was so stimulating that it made her feel scared. But then the fragrant spring breeze blew in her face. Before she could savor it carefully, it turned into a long and light rain in the clouds and mist in the deep mountains...
Sister Xiao Shen couldn't describe her feelings. If she had to describe it, it would be like someone was asking her.
"If there is a boy with spiky hair, star stickers on his face, lipstick, and strange words and deeds, would you like him?"
"I don't like it!" she answered firmly.
"But what if he can make delicious three cup chicken?"
Ah, ah, it’s such a hard decision!
When Boss Shen saw the exaggerated expressions of his wife and children, he couldn't help but look puzzled.
With his family wealth, what delicious food must he not have eaten?
No matter how delicious the food Xu Shang makes, he shouldn't have to make such an exaggerated expression.
Boss Shen then served a bowl of chicken soup stewed with matsutake mushrooms and tasted it carefully.
“This, this…”
At this moment, Boss Shen thought of a poem, and only this poem could express his feelings at this moment.
It comes and goes suddenly.
The clouds are far away and the gate of heaven is wide open.
Oh no—the chicken door is wide open!
Such a rich chicken flavor!
What an extremely delicious taste!
After carefully tasting the sliced matsutake in the chicken soup, Boss Shen couldn't help but marvel at it - the matsutake had absorbed all the essence of the chicken, blending with its own top-grade mountain delicacy. In an instant, it was as if hundreds of chickens were crowing and the sun was rising, which made him want to recite another poem:
The cockcrows and the immortal procession lines up, the Jiumen Cave opens!
Boss Shen put down the soup spoon in his hand and looked at Chairman Xiao Xu meaningfully.
Such delicious chicken soup -
It seems that Brother Xu has come with bad intentions today!
…
After having a good meal and a good drink, Mrs. Shen took the child away and left the living room to Boss Shen and Chairman Xiao Xu. Boss Shen took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"Brother, you're not here just to cook for me this time, are you?"
"Brother, what you said means I can't come to cook for you alone!"
"Hahahaha! Yes, of course!"
"Hehehehe...but we can also talk about business."
Boss Shen thought to himself, I know what you mean, so he asked, "Brother, what new ideas do you have recently?"
"Brother Shen, what do you think of combining the Tianya Village Food Store and the Fresh Supermarket? How will it work?"
"Oh? That's a very interesting idea of yours!"
In fact, there are some contradictions between restaurants and supermarkets. There is an essential difference between the customers of both sides. One goes for cooking, and the other goes for eating.
But it cannot be said that there is a complete conflict. After all, to some extent, the person who cooks can also become the person who eats. After all, if one's will is not firm, he can just solve the problem outside.
