Chapter 617 The Tacit Understanding Between Weng and His Son-in-Law
Feng Yifan is very clear that the "white case" mentioned by his father-in-law is not the white case in the traditional Chinese kitchen.
It is a dim sum chef who can shoulder the responsibility of making dim sum in restaurants.
Apparently, Su Jinrong knew very well that if the son-in-law wanted to make Su Ji into a small private kitchen restaurant, where he could cook all kinds of Chinese dishes for people to taste, the restaurant must have a very complete team of chefs. In addition to the head chef Feng Yifan, some other team members are needed to match.
Under normal circumstances, dim sum is considered a very important thing in Chinese meals.
A kind of snack is served before the main meal, so that some drinkers can eat some snacks to warm their stomachs before drinking, so as not to drink on an empty stomach and hurt their health.
The second is in the middle of the banquet, which is to pave the way for the presentation of the formal dishes after the three rounds of wine.
The last one is familiar to many people, and it is placed at the end of the banquet as a summary of the entire banquet. It is also to allow some people who have not been able to eat enough to fill their stomachs with snacks at the end.
Therefore, these three kinds of snacks presented at different times are also very particular about the production.
For example, before the banquet, it is usually based on dried fruit preserves.
Because the table has not yet opened, guests cannot be allowed to eat snacks to fill their stomachs. Dried fruit preserves are usually refreshing and appetizing, which has the effect of arousing appetite.
The snacks served in the middle are usually mainly pastries of various colors. After clearing the greasy dishes, it can also cushion the diners' stomachs full of wine after drinking, and dissolve some of the alcohol in the stomach and intestines.
The dim sum at the end has a variety of styles, including steamed buns of various colors, desserts such as lotus seed soup, and some fried sesame seeds. Usually it is not the guests who take the initiative to order a dish, but usually it is also based on the overall banquet dishes, and finally presents a summary-style dim sum.
This series of snacks is carefully presented, which is not something that can be completed by an ordinary white case.
So for Feng Yifan, finding a suitable white case is really not an easy task.
Of course, in addition to the difficulty of finding such a comprehensive white case, it is also difficult to find this deputy.
Feng Yifan is even more touched by this point. He has been traveling abroad for so long alone, and he has given five restaurants three stars. During this process, Feng Yifan needed a deputy every time, but he never really appointed anyone as a "deputy".
Because the assistant not only has to strictly implement the tasks assigned by the chef, but more importantly, the assistant must understand some ideas of the chef, and be able to assist the chef in formulating the menu, and also tell the chef many details when the chef has not considered it. And help the chef understand the personal preferences of diners every day.
Based on the existence of these problems, Feng Yifan has not yet found a suitable deputy.
It's not that Feng Yifan deliberately didn't choose him, but that ordinary chefs really can't keep up with his rhythm, and chefs who can keep up with the rhythm may not be willing to be his assistant.
So this has become a problem that bothers him more, and it will also be a problem for Su Ji to reopen before.
Thinking of this, Su Jinrong couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity that I haven't recovered my body now, otherwise I can help you first."
Feng Yifan immediately said to his father-in-law: "Dad, your health will definitely get better, and can't you help me now? At that time, you will still be the chef of Suji, and I will be your assistant. In this way, our team will Even if it’s complete.”
Hearing what his son-in-law said, Su Jinrong smiled and said: "Hahaha, how can there be a chef who doesn't cook at all? We are not those big hotels, not to mention that even in big hotels, the chef often needs to show off his unique skills. I That is no longer the case.”
Su Jinrong's words were rather decadent, but in fact, in his heart, he was full of expectations for his son-in-law.
And he believes that his son-in-law can manage Su Ji well.
Feng Yifan looked at his father-in-law and said seriously: "Dad, I still hope that you can continue to resume exercise and take good care of your body. Even if you are not the chef of Suji, you can still give us some pointers when the time is right, so that young people Not going astray."
Su Jinrong heard what his son-in-law said, and understood that his son-in-law was worried that he would feel sorry for himself, so he gave up resuming exercise.
He smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely continue to resume exercise. I don't want to sit in the wheelchair all the time. I also want to stand up and take a walk in the future, and I can play with Ruoruo."
Seeing the optimistic smile on his father-in-law's face, Feng Yifan felt relieved and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
While Weng and his son-in-law were talking, Feng Ruoruo's voice could already be heard outside the kitchen.
"Wake up, Ruoruo, Dad, Mom said you made a delicious cake for Mom today, and you have to make the same one for Ruoruo."
With the shouting, Feng Ruoruo, who was wearing a dress, rushed into the kitchen quickly.
After entering the kitchen, seeing her grandpa in the kitchen, the little girl was a little surprised and asked, "Yeah, grandpa is here too. If it doesn't disturb dad and grandpa?"
Su Jinrong stretched out his hand to his granddaughter, pulled her to her side and said, "No, grandpa and dad are not researching new dishes. Grandpa is watching dad make dessert for Ruoruo in the kitchen. Grandpa is thinking, what will grandpa do in the future?" Restaurant, do you want to find a chef who specializes in dim sum?"
Hearing what grandpa said, Feng Ruoruo immediately said, "No need, I can let daddy do it."
Su Jinrong smiled and said: "But if Dad does everything by himself, isn't it too hard? We have to share with Dad, and we can't let Dad do everything, so if you want to go with Grandpa, choose one for Dad. Help?"
When the little girl heard what her grandfather said, she felt that what she said made sense, so she immediately nodded her head in agreement.
"Okay, okay, if you want to go with grandpa, find a helper for dad, and ask others to help dad make snacks, so dad can seriously cook."
Su Jinrong smiled and nodded: "Well, if Ruoruo is really good, he is really a good boy who can think about his father."
Feng Ruoruo was naturally very, very happy to be praised by his grandfather.
But happy is happy, the little girl will never forget her father's dessert: "Dad, where's Ruoruo's dessert? Have you prepared it for Ruoruo?"
Feng Yifan glanced at his daughter, then at his wife standing at the kitchen door.
I understand that the wife deliberately revealed it to her daughter, and she deliberately wanted her daughter to make trouble with him.
So Feng Yifan was already prepared, and immediately nodded and said: "Okay, Dad has already given us Ruoruo, and I have prepared a snack. I promise it will be the same as my mother."
Speaking of which, Feng Yifan went to the refrigerator, opened the refrigerator, and took out a cake from the refrigerator.
This one is obviously much larger than the one given to his wife before, and it seems that they should be made together.
Seeing the big cake brought out by her husband, Su Ruoxi immediately said: "Okay, I knew it, you definitely didn't make it for me alone, so you made such a big one a long time ago, and then you gave me such a small cake Block, these are reserved for your daughter."
Facing his wife's accusation of rushing in, Feng Yifan smiled and lifted the lid of the cake.
After uncovering, everyone saw that there was a piece missing from the cake.
Feng Yifan smiled and said to his wife: "If you do it alone, the mold is too big to allow it, so you can only make a big piece of cake, but I will give it to you first, and the piece I gave you is absolutely delicious. This is the best piece here, and this cake is specially made for you and Ruoruo."
Seeing her husband give an explanation very seriously, it also made Su Ruoxi feel more relieved.
"Okay, for the sake of your seriousness, I will spare you this time."
Feng Ruoruo couldn't wait at this moment: "Oh, mom, you've already eaten it, but Ruoruo hasn't eaten it yet, you want Ruoruo to taste it, and then you can talk about dad."
Su Ruoxi smiled and stretched out her hand to pinch her daughter's little face: "You snack, you want to eat as soon as you wake up, and sooner or later you will be eaten into a little chubby girl, what will you do then?"
When Feng Ruoruo heard her mother say that she would become a chubby girl again, she immediately turned her head and said to her grandfather, "Grandpa, look, my mother said that Ruoruo would become a chubby girl by eating, you have to control mom, otherwise mom You always bully Ruoruo, grandpa, take care of it."
When Su Jinrong heard her granddaughter begging for help, she immediately stood by her side and said, "Well, Ruoruo is right, Su Ruoxi, you are a mother, you can't always bully your daughter."
Su Ruoxi couldn't laugh or cry when her father said it like this: "Dad, why don't you talk about me."
Feng Ruoruo immediately smiled happily and said, "Hahaha, mom has grandpa taking care of you."
Seeing her daughter's appearance, Su Ruoxi pouted and said, "Huh, you can be proud, it's okay for grandpa to take care of me. I'll take good care of you little girl after grandpa falls asleep at night."
When Feng Ruoruo heard her mother say this, she was afraid for a while, but soon thought of another way.
"Don't be afraid, Ruoruo sleeps with grandparents at night."
Feng Yifan couldn't help laughing when he saw the two girls bickering there. He felt that the two girls were really getting more and more interesting, and they would bicker like this from time to time.
And hearing Feng Yifan's smile, the two of them actually joined forces in an instant.
"Dad, don't laugh."
"You are not allowed to laugh."
The two mothers ordered in unison, Feng Yifan quickly said: "Okay, don't laugh, don't laugh, then shall we eat cake quickly?"
Hearing about eating cake, Feng Ruoruo happily said, "Okay, okay, let's eat cake."
After that, Feng Yifan cut another piece for his daughter, and he didn't forget to cut another piece for his wife. Then I also cut a small piece for my father-in-law, and of course I didn't forget Ruoruo's grandparents.
The whole family also tasted Feng Yifan's cake beautifully.
After eating, Feng Ruoruo was immediately surprised: "Ah, Dad, why is your cake salty?"
Feng Yifan smiled and asked: "So Ruoruo thinks, is this cake delicious?"
Feng Ruoruo took another big mouthful, and then said: "It's delicious, this salty taste seems to be very delicious, Dad, your cake is really delicious."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Well, it's fine if Ruoruo likes it. Dad is still worried about whether Ruoruo will like it, but Dad thinks that since Mom likes it, then Ruoruo will definitely like it too, and Ruoruo can share it with you later. friends to eat together."
When Feng Ruoruo was reminded by his father, he immediately thought of his friends.
"Yeah, yeah, I still have food for Sister Wenwen and Brother Haohao. Dad, let's go and deliver it to them."
Su Ruoxi grabbed her daughter and said, "Don't worry, eat what you have first, and then we'll deliver cakes to them. Well, Brother Ning Guang also wants to give him a piece."
When Ning Guang was mentioned, Feng Ruoruo was immediately unhappy: "Mom, why did you give it to him?"
Su Ruoxi smiled and said: "Is Ruoruo still angry with him? But didn't Brother Ning Guang apologize? And when we went fishing last time, Ruoruo also played with Brother Ning Guang? So since we are going to break up If the cake is for everyone to eat, it should also be for Brother Ning Guang."
After being told by her mother, the little girl looked at her grandfather, grandparents and father again.
Lu Cuiling smiled and encouraged: "If we are good children and are very generous, we will forgive that Ning Guang, okay?"
Feng Jiandong also said: "Yes, we forgive Brother Ning Guang once."
Su Jinrong went on to say: "Well, brother Ning Guang went outing with you last time, and went fishing together, and helped Ruoruo catch the little frog to play with. If Ruo Ruo should thank you? So I gave Brother Ning Guang a piece of cake Eating is a kind of gratitude, isn't it?"
After her grandparents and grandpa said so, Feng Ruoruo finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, then give him a piece."
After the cake was finished, Feng Ruoruo went to deliver cakes to her little friends together with her grandparents and mother who pushed her grandfather.
Feng Yifan stayed at home, waiting for Ning Cheng who came over after lunch.
After Ning Cheng arrived, Feng Yifan didn't let him enter the kitchen to practice knife skills, but let Ning Cheng sit down under the persimmon tree in the yard, and he decided to have a good chat with Ning Cheng.
After Ning Cheng sat down, he was still a little apprehensive, worried that Feng Yifan would not let him come to learn?
But Ning Cheng's worries are superfluous. Feng Yifan talked to him not to say that he should not continue to study, but to talk about other things.
"You should have heard that the two apprentices I used to have are now going to have a competition. It may be an ordinary competition that is not very 'bloody'. I think maybe I can let you go and have a look. Let's see how the two of them will compete."
Ning Cheng was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately said, "I, I'd like to see it."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Well, if you're willing to go and see it, then we can take some time and I'll take you to see it together, so it can be regarded as letting you see it."
Ning Cheng thought for a while and asked, "Uncle Yifan, are you going to accept me as an apprentice?"
Feng Yifan shook his head: "No, you can't be my apprentice yet."
This sentence made Ning Cheng a little disappointed. He was thinking about whether he had already been recognized, but after hearing this, he understood that he hadn't really obtained that recognition.
But Feng Yifan patted him on the shoulder again and said: "There is still a chance, but you haven't met the requirements yet, work hard."
After getting such a sentence, Ning Cheng raised his head to look at Feng Yifan, then nodded heavily: "Okay."
