Chapter 578 Chapter 577 Help Deng Lisong Choose a Cub? No Problem! Went to Han’s House for Reunion Dinner on Sunday! 【Please Subscribe】
Lin Xu looked at the studio door for a while, then went to the living room to play with his mobile phone.
He doesn't like to be disturbed when he's cooking, and Deng Lisong certainly doesn't want people to watch him when he's carving jade, so there's no need to keep putting pressure on others.
He held his cell phone and looked through the comments on the video of Snow Mian Bean Paste.
Many people have heard of this delicacy, also called snow-coated bean paste, beautiful bean paste, etc., but they are a little confused about how to make it.
Now that I see what Lin Xu did, I realize that it is really difficult.
"When I was a kid, I often pestered my second uncle, who was a chef, to make it for me. I thought it was so easy at the time, but now I see Boss Lin's tutorial and realize that it's actually so difficult."
"Then you are not allowed to bring gifts to see your second uncle?"
"I was drinking on the kang in his house. I have a big elbow. We just watched Boss Lin's video together. My second uncle praised Boss Lin for his skill."
"I'm so envious. I still don't know what the snowy bean paste tastes like."
"Does Lin remember this dish?"
"Call Boss Lin, would you like this dish? If so, I will eat instant noodles for a month and save up money to take a green car to the capital to try it."
Seeing this, Lin Xu was quite sympathetic.
But when I saw that it was posted by Liu Bo, I immediately felt that this rich man was playing tricks again.
When I went home for the Spring Festival this time, I originally planned to ask Liu Bo to have a meal with me, but it turned out that this guy flew to Pattaya to celebrate the New Year, and even hired two ladyboys. He still doesn't want to go back to China.
Below Liu Bo's comment, there are all the fans making fun of him.
"Is Brother Fu's sphincter okay?"
"Brother Rich actually rides in a green car, just like me. It turns out I am also a Brother Rich."
"Brother Fu, today is Thursday, I can buy KFC for 50!"
"Brother Fu, come back quickly. The water in Pattaya is too deep and you can't control it."
"Brother Rich has a precious body, so how can he go to such a rotten and degenerate place? Next time I will go for you, and I will help you bear the pain and sorrow of depravity!"
"..."
Lin Xu posted an update in the comment area:
"Snowy bean paste is low-profit and cannot be ordered à la carte. It can only be added to the table for the time being. It also affects the efficiency of the kitchen too much. We will wait for the chefs to improve their skills in the future before we can order it à la carte."
During the heyday of Northeastern cuisine, there was no such thing as snowy bean paste.
Nowadays, the Northeast economy is in decline, and the high-end ingredients in Northeastern cuisine are basically animal-protected, the kind of food that will last you a sewing machine for ten years after one bite.
There are no tigers in the mountains, so the snowy bean paste is revealed.
Before the 1980s, dishes such as braised bear paws, tiger bone clear soup, and white braised golden pheasant were definitely top-notch dishes.
As soon as Lin Xu's comment was posted, netizens took to Twitter to comment on Che Zai and others, urging them to work hard on practicing their cooking skills.
They are all waiting to eat snow bean paste in the store.
In the evening, Deng Lisong came out of the studio holding Dundun in his arms.
"Ok?"
Lin Xu asked curiously.
"It's early. Today I'm just going to work out the rough outline and shape, and I'll start the intensive work tomorrow. Dundun won't be here these two days, so let's contact you via WeChat then."
Jade carving is not something that can be accomplished overnight, it needs to be pondered over time.
Especially in the latter part, the refinement of eyes, expressions, demeanor, etc. requires a lot of time and energy.
Now it's relatively easy to get started. All you need to do is cut out the overall frame of the sculpture and then create a rough outline. It's not a difficult task for Deng Lisong.
"Okay, let's go back first."
Lin Xu took Dundun and was about to leave with Shen Jiayue when the little guy suddenly jumped out of his arms and rubbed its big round head on Deng Lisong's leg, which made the skinny jade carving master tremble.
This little baby is so cute, isn’t it?
If you want to raise a cat, you must raise a cat!
Deng Lisong made up his mind to go to the Forbidden City once Dundun's jade carving was finished and find a cat with good eyesight to bring back and adopt.
Thinking of this, he looked at Lin Xu and asked:
"Boss Lin, you have had cats for so long, so you should know a lot about them, right?"
"What's wrong, Master Deng?"
"I plan to make Dundun jade carvings and then go to the Forbidden City to adopt a cat cub, but I don't know how to choose one. I want your help in choosing one."
this……
Lin Xu didn't expect this kind of request at all.
To be honest, he really doesn't understand cats very well, because Dundun is usually very worry-free and is more obedient than children, so he doesn't bother at all.
But looking online, some cats are depressed and need their owners to chat and play with them constantly;
Some cats are anorexic and need their owners to beat the canned food into a paste and feed it bit by bit with a syringe;
Also, it sheds like a dandelion and needs to be brushed every day;
Some long-haired cats, such as Ragdolls, have famous glass stomachs and are super prone to soft stools. Each soft stool will stick to the fur, making cleaning up a disaster;
In addition, cats should cut their nails regularly, wash their ears regularly, check their teeth, and buy new toys frequently, because cats only get interested in toys for three minutes, and if they don’t have new toys for a long time, they will become depressed...
In short, it is not easy to raise a cat well.
Therefore, for most people, it is not easy to make the decision to raise a cat, just raise it in the cloud.
How cute a cat is, how hard it is to raise it.
Many parents even say that raising cats is not much easier than raising children.
"Okay, we were just going to visit the unopened areas of the Forbidden City."
While still hesitating, Shen Jiayue took the lead and agreed.
This girl really wants to go to the Forbidden City to feed the cats, see the timid Papa, and take pictures of the strong Ruyi. She thinks those cats are so cute.
Now that his baby has agreed, Lin Xu nodded and said:
"Okay, let's go together then. The most important thing about raising a cat is the eye, and it also depends on you."
According to Deng Lisong's character, he should raise a more lively cat so that the family can be balanced. If he raises a timid, timid and thoughtful cat, he will become a family.
Cai Sen next to him said:
"I'm also going to raise one to be my photography model. It's much cheaper than hiring those college students, and it's also obedient."
These words made Lin Xu immediately happy.
Don't be blinded by Dundun.
Cats are the most rebellious animals in the world. They have a strong sense of self. Getting them to obey is harder than figuring out your girlfriend's lipstick number.
On the way back, Shen Jiayue asked:
"Xubao, Master Deng's place is full of fragile items such as jade. Is it suitable for raising a cat?"
"Whether it's suitable or not depends on his idea. He has money and skills, so he can just break it into pieces and start over."
Most people have so many jade items and they will definitely keep them properly, but for Deng Lisong, who has been carving jade since he was a child, it is not difficult to recreate it.
And compared to finished jade ornaments, raw jade materials are quite cheap.
This thing is expensive because of its processing and meaning, just like a diamond ring. It is super expensive when you buy it, but what is more expensive is the craftsmanship and story, not the diamond itself.
In fact, diamonds and jade cannot be judged by selling price, but by recycling price.
If the recycling price is high, then it is really high.
However, the recycling prices of diamonds and jade are extremely low. The only jade that can be sold at a high price is the jade with age, but that is through the antique channel, not the normal price of jade.
In order to sell them at a high price, many jade dealers will deliberately send the finished jade articles to a dark and humid environment for several years, imitating the environment of ancient tombs and making them into fake antiques to deceive those who do not know the art.
Besides, Deng Lisong can afford to live in a courtyard house worth hundreds of millions, and his parents work in the Forbidden City. Money should be just a number to him.
Now that he finally has the opportunity to alleviate social fear, do you think he will feel sorry for money, or will he try to be a normal person?
Back at the store, dinner has already started.
Chen Yan asked curiously:
"Where's the jade carving? It's not ready yet?"
"No, I guess it will take a few days. Today is just for people to observe Dundun in reality."
Today's dinner was chicken stewed with potatoes, and Qin Wei's minced pork vermicelli and garlic cabbage. They were all very satisfying. Lin Xu washed his hands and filled two bowls of rice, sat down with Shen Jiayue, and started eating.
Shen Jiayue ate rice and told Chen Yan about spring pancakes for lunch.
"Wrap the toon leaves in batter and fry them in a pan. It feels crispy and fragrant. It's delicious when rolled up with spring cakes. It's a pity that you can't eat it."
She originally wanted to be greedy for Chen Yan, but unexpectedly she was greedy for Chen Yuanyuan:
"It's been a long time since I've had spring pancakes. Let me make them one day so that we can all enjoy them."
This is simple, Lin Xu said:
"Just tomorrow at noon, let's have spring pancakes at noon tomorrow. Anyway, they are all ready-made in the store, so it's convenient to eat anything."
"OK."
"Then we'll just wait and eat."
"Eat more tomorrow. If you don't eat spring pancakes at the beginning of spring, you will feel sleepy."
In the next two days, Lin Xu's life returned to normal again.
Lao Shen came back from a business trip and had a big meal in the store. He was especially fond of dipping pickles. He kept praising the delicious egg sauce made by Lin Xu. With this bowl of sauce, he could eat half the green belt of the street.
These words naturally aroused Director Han's dissatisfaction.
He keeps saying this in front of his children without acting like an elder. If he has a grandson or granddaughter later, he cannot let this guy take care of him.
Yueyue has already gone astray, and the next generation must be trained from an early age.
While eating, Han Shuzhen said to Shen Jiayue:
"We went to grandma's house for dinner on Sunday. We didn't have dinner together during the Chinese New Year. Your grandpa was unhappy, so he had to make up for it on the weekend. The older he gets, the more he acts like a child."
Han Shuzhen has four siblings. The eldest sister, Han Shufen, has just become a grandmother this year. Although she came to visit relatives, she went home to take care of her granddaughter without food.
The second sister, Han Shulan, works as the vice president of Fuwai Hospital and is usually very busy. During the Spring Festival, the family flew directly to Sanya to enjoy a holiday.
The youngest sister Han Shuzhen also went to Yinzhou to celebrate the New Year, which made Mr. Han very unhappy.
Other people's family celebrated the Chinese New Year with a big family, but my own family didn't even have a reunion dinner. How could this happen? The old man slapped his head and said that no matter what he was busy with this weekend, he would go home for lunch at noon.
Well, if I don’t have a reunion dinner, I always feel that this year has not passed.
Lin Xu said:
"Okay, I'll bring some ingredients over tomorrow so I don't have to buy any more for grandma."
The so-called dinner party actually ended up with Lin Xu cooking. Even though everyone in the Han family was proficient with scalpels, when it came to picking up a kitchen knife, they were a bit unsatisfied.
Shen Jiayue said:
"We can't just let Xu Bao do it. Tomorrow I will also show off my cooking skills and shock the jaws of my aunt, two aunts and uncles... Tomorrow, my mother will be waiting to install their jaws."
Han Shuzhen did not object to this:
"Yes, you should make it too. A few days ago, your aunt posted a picture of the soup Wen Qing made for her in the group chat. It turned black and she praised her daughter's cooking skills. I couldn't stand it."
Tsk tsk tsk, I can finally feel proud.
Han Shuzhen had been waiting for this day for a long time. When people praised her daughter, she could only agree casually. Now that her daughter has cooking skills, we, as mothers, naturally have to stand up straight.
Lao Shen rolled up a piece of lettuce, dipped it in the egg sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it with a happy expression on his face.
He said to Lin Xu:
"Bring two fish tomorrow. Grandma likes to eat fish. Please put some thought into making it better."
"Okay dad, no problem."
After breakfast the next day, Lin Xu drove back to the store, brought some braised meat and some ingredients. He also took the new toys Shu Yun bought for Dundun into the car, and then drove to Dongdan with Dundun and Shen Jiayue.
Arriving at the entrance of the Han family's courtyard, uncle Han Shuyu was already waiting at the door.
The spring cold has been severe these days. Wearing a military coat, he directed Lin Xu to park the car in a parking space on the roadside.
The only disadvantage of living in an alley is that there are few parking spaces, which is usually enough, but when relatives or guests come to the house, it becomes a bit stretched.
Lin Xu got out of the car and pushed the door open. Han Shuyu immediately took Dundun over and wrapped him in a military coat:
"Is it cold, baby? Come on, let's go inside quickly to warm up. Everyone is waiting to take a photo with you."
Dundun's fame is getting bigger and bigger. The adults in the family think the little guy is cute even before they know it. However, the younger generation takes photos and takes selfies every time they see Dundun. Show off in front of classmates.
It's similar to Chen Shaokang's idea of poisoning.
But the advantage of showing off Dundun is that you won't be kicked out of the group by the teacher.
After all, no matter how you show off your cat, it will only make everyone envious, and if you poison it late at night, it will be somewhat infuriating.
Lin Xu opened the trunk, and Shen Jiayue and he moved a large cardboard box and got out of the car. They closed the door and the car locked automatically. Just as he was about to get in, Shen Guofu arrived in his Bentley.
Seeing Lin Xu's Maisha Rui, Lao Shen said:
"It's a pity that the car I ordered will not be available until the end of next month at the earliest, so I have to wait a little longer."
When buying a car at that time, he and his second uncle Chen Meiliang's car had been personalized and modified. There was no existing car, so it needed to be made by the original factory. Once it was ready, it had to be shipped by sea. It could only be shipped to the capital after normal customs clearance. It took a relatively long time. long.
Walking into the Han family's yard, Shen Jiayue's cousins were all taking pictures and group photos around Dundun. Cousin Wenshan from the aunt's house also put Dundun on his shoulders and asked cousin Wenqing to take photos.
"Dundun, I'm your uncle. Please cooperate when we take pictures later. If you want to cooperate, I'll give you a red envelope."
Dundun didn't pay attention at first, but when he heard about the red envelope, he became energetic.
This Spring Festival, Dundun successfully transformed from a little kitten with no desires to a little money-crazy. When taking a group photo, it not only took the initiative to put its face against Shi Wenshan's face, but also became very affectionate.
Shi Wenshan was so happy that he immediately stuffed a big red envelope into Dundun's arms.
"Hold on, baby, let's see if anyone says I'm bragging this time."
Shi Wenshan, who is 34 or 5 years old, is a dentist. He used to work at Tiantan Hospital, but he felt that working within the system was too depressing, so he resigned and opened a dental clinic.
Not to mention, the business is not very good, and the money I make every month is higher than my annual salary when I was working.
Recently, he opened two branches and wanted to do a wave of online promotion, but he has never found a suitable promotion method or advertiser.
Seeing Dundun now, Shi Wenshan had an idea.
He handed the dundun to the other brothers and sisters who were clamoring for a photo, strode to the kitchen, and asked in a low voice:
"Lin Xu, will Dundun accept the advertisement?"
Lin Xu shook his head:
"I don't have this idea for the time being. What's wrong, brother?"
Shi Wenshan is the youngest and oldest among the three generations of the Han family, so everyone calls him eldest brother.
"My dental clinic wants to advertise, and I think Dundun is quite suitable. If it doesn't work, forget it, and I'll think of other ways."
In the dental clinic, you find a pet to advertise.
This idea is quite strange.
Lin Xu said:
"Well, let me help you with the advertising. I'll go back to your clinic to take a video tour of the store. I'll do a teeth cleaning and dental checkup on the way."
If you want to have good teeth, regular dental cleaning is essential.
Teeth scaling can not only remove tartar and plaque, but also eliminate gum bleeding, gum recession, oral odor and other symptoms.
Although these symptoms may seem inconspicuous, once they develop into severe symptoms, they can be devastating.
Shi Wenshan's eyes lit up. With his cousin-in-law's reputation, he wanted to make a video of visiting the dental clinic and make the dental clinic popular immediately.
He asked in surprise:
"Is it really okay? Didn't you sign a contract with Mesarui and you can't just accept ads randomly?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"Your dental clinic is not a small advertisement. It is a normal demand. It does not overlap with Mysarui's business. It can be filmed."
Upon hearing this, Shi Wenshan was extremely happy.
He originally just wanted to rub into Dundun's warmth, but unexpectedly, he directly rubbed against the man behind Dundun.
What a surprise!
"Then I'd like to thank you very much, Lin Xu. I'll treat you to dinner then... No, no, no, I'll give you a big red envelope directly..."
Lin Xu said:
"No, no, no, we are relatives, and we should help each other."
Shi Wenshan is an open-minded person. His cousin-in-law helped him so much, so he had to repay him. When he thought of this, he said:
"How about this? I'll give all your employees a dental check-up, which can be regarded as a small benefit for you. Isn't that okay?"
Oral exam?
This is really necessary.
Because catering workers need to apply for health certificates, physical examinations are very timely, but oral examinations are somewhat neglected. Taking advantage of this period after the New Year, everyone should take turns to have oral examinations.
With good teeth, you can taste more delicious food.
Otherwise, you can't eat the hard ones, the hot ones, or the cold ones. But the store often makes some delicious snacks, which makes people feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Thinking of this, Lin Xu said:
"Okay, let's get over it later. Let's discuss this together and see when it's better to go for the check-up. I'll just make arrangements for the people in the store."
As soon as he finished speaking, the system prompt sounded in his mind:
"The host is considerate of the employees, won oral examination benefits for everyone, completed the hidden task [employee benefits], and obtained the perfect fish dish-watercress fish. Congratulations to the host."
This prompt made Lin Xu very surprised.
This is because Cousin Wenshan feels sorry for him. He wants to perform oral examinations for the employees in the store, but he just nodded in agreement. How come this is a benefit that I strive for?
System, it’s not good for you to whitewash me like this, right?
However, the reward of watercress fish is good. My father-in-law just reminded Mrs. Han that she likes to eat fish, so she rewarded her with such a dish. It just so happened that she also brought a sea bass today.
In this case, let’s make it and try it!
