Siheyuan: My life is my decision

Chapter 27 Pickled Fish



In the kitchen, He Yuzhu put the hoof bones into a casserole and stewed them

He doesn't know what happened in the screening room yet, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Xu Damao's character was destined to dislike the boss, so he was kicked out. He was not surprised at all.

He originally wanted to do it for the big boss like in the play, but after thinking about it, he still had to change it to leave a deep impression on the big boss.

So, he saw two fish and tenderloins in the kitchen. It seemed that they were specially bought today.

He found several pickled vegetable jars next to the cabinet. When he opened them, he saw pickled radish, pickled sauerkraut, pickled cabbage and other pickled vegetables. He thought of a famous Sichuan dish.

Pickled fish

However, he considered that not everyone might like to eat Sichuan food this time, so he prepared a few plates of non-spicy dishes.

He Yuzhu started to do it, cleaned the fish, and then followed the method of pickled fish, filleted the fish, marinated it with egg white and starch, and set it aside.

Just after finishing it, the secretary of the big leader came in and said to He Yuzhu

"Master He, you can start cooking now."

When He Yuzhu heard this, he felt the time and realized that Xu Damao should have been kicked out by now. He smiled secretly in his heart.

"So fast? Don't the leaders want to watch a movie?"

"I won't watch it anymore. The projectionist made the boss unhappy and asked him to leave."

"Oh, that's it"

He Yuzhu looked like this, and then responded

"Okay, start now"

Outside, the big leader led everyone to the restaurant. As soon as he sat down and didn't say a few words, he watched the dishes being served one after another.

The big boss was surprised that it was so fast. The notification had just been sent out.

“How come the food is served so fast?”

The big leader looked at the secretary and asked

"I went to the kitchen to see before, and Master He started to get busy as soon as he entered the kitchen."

"I asked him why he cooked it so early. Isn't he worried that the food would get cold?"

"Who knew that Master He told me that some dishes take a long time and need to be prepared in advance, so as not to be too late at short notice and affect your meal?"

The leader's wife asked the nanny to go down, then looked at the big leader and said

He Yuzhu had just made a good impression on her, so he helped her with a few words.

"Well, no wonder, look, this is what contemporary workers should do."

The big leader nodded and continued

"You should learn from Master He, talk less and do more."

"Yes Yes..."

Everyone agrees

"Okay, the food has been served. Let's chat while eating."

The leader’s wife said

"Come on, let's try it all"

The big leader picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of food and started eating

Everyone saw the big leader moving his chopsticks first, and then started moving them too.

Mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork, dishes were served one after another, and the senior leader was very happy to eat

He knew that He Yuzhu’s Tanjia cuisine was good, but he didn’t expect that He Yuzhu’s Sichuan cuisine could be so authentic.

Everyone was also impressed by He Yuzhu's cooking skills. It was also the first time for Director Yang to eat Sichuan food. Although he couldn't eat spicy food, his chopsticks were not much slower.

Because the food cooked by He Yuzhu was indeed very good. He only inhaled when it was so spicy. The boss burst out laughing when he saw Director Yang’s appearance.

At this time, a tempting spicy smell wafted over

I saw the nanny carrying a porcelain basin and placing it on the dining table. The leader adjusted his glasses and took a closer look.

The red dried chili peppers are floating on top, and some green peppercorns are intertwined with each other. The white fish meat is tender and shiny, and the chives and coriander are garnished on top. They are red and green and make people drool.

"What is this dish called?"

The big boss pointed at the porcelain basin with his chopsticks, looked at the secretary and asked

"Go back to the leader, I don't know this either, Master He didn't say anything."

"Go, go and fetch him."

The big boss waved to the secretary, who quickly walked to the kitchen

"Well, let's try this dish."

The big leader took a piece of fish and put it into his mouth. A sour and spicy taste filled his mouth for a while. The fish meat was very smooth, tender and delicious, and it melted in your mouth.

Pick up the soup spoon, scoop a spoonful of soup, pour it into the bowl, and then sip it gently. Your mouth is full of delicious food with a slight numbness and sourness. How can one word describe it?

"it is good"

The big leader shouted, this feeling was something he had never felt before

Seeing the performance of the big leader, everyone picked up the fish and started eating it. They immediately understood why the big leader was so applauded.

“This tastes so delicious”

"Yeah, it melts in your mouth."

“Slightly numb and spicy to stimulate taste buds”

“It feels so comfortable”

.......

Everyone praised him one after another. Director Yang really didn’t expect that He Yuzhu’s cooking skills were so superb. Bringing He Yuzhu here this time was the right decision.

After the leader's wife took a bite, she felt even more satisfied with He Yuzhu. The projectionist before was really slandering him. It was just nonsense.

In the kitchen, He Yuzhu had just finished cooking the last dish, braised hoof legs, when the secretary to the big leader walked in.

"Master He, the leader wants to see you"

He Yuzhu was not surprised at all after hearing the words of the secretary of the big boss. He expected that the big boss would meet him. In the original drama, Silly Zhu cooked the dishes in an orderly manner and was appreciated by the big boss in the end.

"Okay, go right away"

As he said this, He Yuzhu followed the secretary of the big leader to the restaurant while carrying the braised pork ribs.

"Master He, come here"

When the big leader saw He Yuzhu walking in, he shouted to him

"Good leadership"

He Yuzhu put the braised pork ribs on the dining table, and then walked to the big leader

"Leader, what are your orders?"

"Master He, what's the name of this fish of yours?"

"If I tell the boss, this is called pickled fish."

"Sauerkraut fish? Well, not bad, very appropriate."

The big leader nodded

"I'm very satisfied with the meal you cooked today."

"Thank you for the compliment from the great leader"

He Yuzhu smiled, nodded slightly, and looked at the big leader

"Did you create this dish yourself?"

The big leader looked at He Yuzhu and asked

When He Yuzhu heard this, he began to recall that this pickled fish dish appeared in the 20s and became officially popular in the 80s, becoming popular all over the country.

It has not appeared yet, but this does not prevent

"If I tell the boss, this dish is not my own creation."

"Oh? No?"

The big boss is interested

"Yes, this was during those famine years. Once I saved an old man. Later, when he learned that I was a chef, he told me that he was a Sichuan chef and this dish was his Taught me”

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he looked at the big leader

"What happened to the old man later?"

"Later, when the famine years passed, the old man said that the fallen leaves would return to their roots and returned to Sichuan."

"Good people are rewarded."

The big leader sighed

"Master Lai He, let me toast you."

As the leader said, he picked up the wine glass. The secretary next to him quickly took a new wine glass and poured He Yuzhu a glass of wine.

"Big leader, you have disgraced me, I should respect you."

He Yuzhu said, raising his head while holding the wine glass, and took a sip.

"Okay, very nice young man."

The big leader looked at He Yuzhu who had finished drinking the wine, nodded with a smile, and also drank all the wine in his hand.

The happiest person was Factory Manager Yang. He was laughing so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth.
