Chapter 95: Buddhist restaurant

Tang Jinyu and Guo Xiaohu together delivered the express delivery all afternoon. They were crowded and delivered quickly, but they didn't have much money in hand, saving a few cents for one hundred and ten yuan.
Tang Jinyu counted and put the money in her pocket, "I'll take it first, and put it to the stars at night for her to keep it together."
The people around agreed. Tang Jinyu told the few people far away from home to go back first. He called home and said to eat outside and go back later.
After Guo Xiaohu heard this, he didn't rush to go, and stood aside and asked, "Xiaoyu, where are you going?"
Tang Jinyu said, "Yesterday my mother said that it is good to have a family vegetarian restaurant."
Guo Xiaohu squatted and said: "I'll be with you, I also like to be vegetarian, I will ask you to eat..."
Tang Jinyu laughed and nodded, "I'll ask you to eat steamed buns, but you may have to work (gan) to eat, okay?"
Guo Xiaohu said yes immediately and was very excited.
Tang Jinyu took him to a Suzhai restaurant on Ronghua Road. The decoration was high-end and elegant. The waiters wore uniform cheongsams and served dishes with a smooth flow of water. Just looking at the service attitude was pleasing enough. However, the price is really expensive. There are only 5 golden silk flower rolls in a small cage, and the asking price is more than 20 yuan. The steamed buns that Guo Xiaohu bought yesterday was only 20 cents. At the current prices, this place is definitely high consumption.
The decoration of the lobby is also good. There are several private rooms upstairs, and there are less than ten tables downstairs. About half of the guests are seated now, and some people are coming over. Seeing that the business is OK.
Guo Xiaohu has money in his family, but they are all squandered. He has eaten a box lunch for a few dollars at a hotel of thousands of dollars. Usually, he buys sneakers for brand-name sportswear and spends more money. Such restaurants also come. However, there is usually nothing, but now he really doesn't have much money in his pocket, so he was a little cramped for a while.
Tang Jinyu did not stay in the hall, and led him through the small door directly to the back kitchen.
The master chef at the back kitchen was setting the plate. After he was done, he saw him and smiled: "Isn't Xiao Tang? He came here just right, I will do it right away."
Tang Jinyu smiled and waited, and even talked to the master. He could say a word or two about everything, which made the master feel better.
The master wiped his hand and came over and asked, "You can make Xiaolongbao?"
Tang Jinyu said, "Yes, I have practiced since I was a child, and I have improved my hand skills. This is how I can do it."
The master said: "Okay, come with me and try to pack a few. Let's sell some buns at night. Let's pack a few big ones first. Let me see your craftsmanship."
When Guo Xiaohu listened to the clouds and mists, he leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you practice piano since childhood?"
Tang Jinyu raised her hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and then lowered her voice: "Appropriate packaging, anyway, it's all handwork, don't worry, I really know how."
Guo Xiaohu doubted that he had never heard that Tang Jinyu could still cook.
Tang Jinyu followed the master, changed her apron and washed her hands, and sat in a row of buns.
He moves too fast, the stuffing of the big buns is multi-faceted and soft. In fact, the difficulty is not small, but the folds on the mouth are clearer. The master deliberately wants to see how good his craftsmanship is. After a few packages, the master enjoys himself. "Yeah, you really have practiced since childhood. You are quite skilled. The pleats are also good and the mouth is neat. Then I will (gan) first today... Is your classmate the one who works with you? ?"
Guo Xiaohu stood and didn't know what to say, Tang Jinyu said for him: "No, he's here to help, don't worry, Master, I will take him with him, and he will study in a few days."
The master patted Guo Xiaohu's arm and squeezed it twice, "I saw that he is so strong in his tendons, not like a work-study student, haha!"
Guo Xiaohu made a big red face. He is usually nourished, and he is really strong.
Tang Jinyu was sitting on the bun. He moved fast and his mouth was sweet. After a while, the master asked him to squeeze the steamed buns. They belonged to the dim sum category. They had to be more delicate. Of course, they would pay more. The cash was settled that day, and I was in charge of a meal.
Tang Jinyu went to Chen Suling’s secretary and asked the secretary to introduce him. He didn’t say who he was, only that he was a work-study student. He wanted to explore the way for Xiaoji. The job here is relatively easier. Some of them also included a meal, and finished work after more than three hours of work. In the evening, they had time to take care of their families and self-study.
He thought very carefully, and arranged the route. After crossing this street, he walked a little further to the school. Hurry up and do not delay classes.
Guo Xiaohu struggled to pinch the buns but failed. He tried one and didn't dare to try again. He turned around and helped the chef at the back to carry the vegetables several times, and also carried two bags of rice.
When he came back, Tang Jinyu had already known everyone around him.
"Xiao Tang, you pinch it backwards, yes, yes, the most famous one on our side is this tofu bun, which in turn is steamed and served in a basket. The flavor is different from the others."
"Master, so?"
"Yes, it's done in one go, nothing is missing!"
"It's the master who made the noodles so well. It's white and soft at first glance. The dough can be filled with as much stuffing as possible. I will definitely learn more from you when I look back. This unique craft cannot be lost.
The master was very comfortable, and within half an hour the two of them had begun to talk intimately.
Tang Jinyu mentioned Xiao Ji’s affairs to him, but it caused the master to sigh with emotion: "I said you did what you did when you were so young. It turned out to be like this. In the early days, people of our generation ran around thinking about it. It’s not easy to eat mixed meals. My craftsmanship is gradually honed. I didn’t have the chance to study before. I came out during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. I heard that your classmate is also an honest child. You let him come."
The master thought for a while, and added, "For two hours of work in the morning and evening, I will do the same as you. I will cover him two meals. The salary is as I told you. I will pay him 1,500 yuan a month. Yes. If you are late, you will deduct points. If it is too much, I will add some points. The money is not much, and the tuition is enough. Let’s try for a few months and see if the students have to go to school. What if they don’t. !"
Tang Jinyu was very happy, nodded and said, "Hey, I will bring him over tomorrow, thank you!"
The master smiled. It’s not busy right now. He instructed Tang Jinyu on how to mix fillings. The old and the young talked very happily. The master’s secret recipes are all small and transparent, and he talked about a tail. Then he quickly got stuck, (gan gan) coughed a few times, and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Tang Jinyu sat there and continued to squeeze the steamed dumplings. The movements were very fast. The master was not here, but there were other people. He smiled best. He was (dry gan) (dry gan) clean and refreshing. , The movements are quick and diligent, and soon I got acquainted with the chef.
Guo Xiaohu was stunned when he moved back to see him. He felt that his old classmate was a bit amazing.
This is a lot of work, not only has things been done, but even the little gossip of the back chef has been revealed.
Tang Jinyu worked for two hours and confiscated the master’s money. He smiled and said,
I’m here to practice hands in advance. You can also see if we can make it. If we don’t charge the money on the first day, you can just take care of one meal. ."
The master thought the child was too real, and he liked it a little bit more in his heart. He had two boxes of buns for them to carry, both of which were signature tofu buns. The two boxes caught up with several small cages.
After Tang Jinyu came out of Su Zhai Restaurant, he divided Guo Xiaohu a box of steamed buns and said, "Get tired, here, please eat."
Guo Xiaohu took one and put it in his mouth. The tofu bun was a bit hot, not the thin-skinned buns in the south, but the kind with the soft outer skin in the north. The wheat fragrant was very strong, and the bite tasted sweet. I never thought that this was a vegetarian bag. Tofu, fresh mushrooms and winter bamboo shoots were mixed together, and the fragrance was tangy, and the oily seals would remain on the corners of the lips after a bite. Guo Xiaohu swallowed, couldn't help but took another bite, and while eating, he sucked his nose vigorously. The rich scent of the buns filled the air, and the scent flowed through the nasal cavity to his stomach. (Hook gou) The gluttons are out.
He ate five of them in one breath, and grabbed one of them. "Xiaoyu, you made this is so delicious."
"Yeah, the stuffing made by the master is good. I learned almost the same thing. I'll come back twice tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Tang Jinyu also ate three or four, licking his fingers, thinking that his brother would love this. You can cook it for his brother when you go back.
Guo Xiaohu choked suddenly, turned his head and coughed for a while, Tang Jinyu was startled: "Are you all right?"
Guo Xiaohu waved his hand and didn't dare to look back at him. After a long time, he turned his face blushing and red ears, avoiding his fingers, and said vaguely: "It's okay, it's okay, I just ate too fast...choking."
Tang Jinyu went to buy him a bottle of water. Guo Xiaohu now knows that he is frugal, and he is not willing to drink first. He pushes him and said, "You drink two mouthfuls first and I drink the rest."
Tang Jinyu was happy: "No need, you can drink it, I will go home in a while."
Guo Xiaohu still refused, and pushed him to take the first sip. When the two of them were letting in and going, they heard the sound of car horns on the side of the road, two beeps, which was quite hurried. Just listen to it. The owner is not very good-tempered now.
Guo Xiaohu gave in. He was already standing on the sidewalk. The car stopped closer to the ground. Before he could push Tang Jinyu with the water, the car made two honking of the horn. This time the windows were all When I put it down, the face of the person in the driver's seat was so dark that he turned his head to look at them and said coldly, "Xiaoyu, why didn't you answer the call just now?"
Tang Jinyu blinked and was immediately pleasantly surprised. He ignored Guo Xiaohu and immediately ran over and bent over and said, "Brother, why are you here?"
Xia Ye looked at him, then looked at the tall boy next to him, and said to him, "You didn't call me at noon." He received it at noon, and the plane arrived in the afternoon.
"Yes, but aren't you busy these days..."
"Not busy." Xia Ye said briefly, "Get in the car and I will take you home."
Tang Jinyu agreed and asked, "Brother, my classmate lives in the community near our home, so send him back on the way?"
Xia Ye nodded.
Tang Jinyu yelled Guo Xiaohu to get in the car together. Guo Xiaohu yelled "Brother Xia Ye" when he was sitting in the back row. The children of the group of children yelled when they saw Xia Ye when they were young.
Tang Jinyu relaxed a lot. He has been riding in his brother's car since he was a child, and he has been more comfortable than his own car from his old bicycle to car. He was still holding a box of steamed buns, and Xia Ye asked when he saw it, "Where did it come from?"
"Oh, I made it myself at Su Zhai Restaurant in the afternoon. Brother, you taste it? It's still hot!" He took a steamed bun and handed it to Xia Ye's mouth, feeding him at the traffic light. Xia Ye took a bite, seeming to think of something, and then exhorted: "There is water in the car."
Tang Jinyu immediately opened a bottle and handed it dogleg to his brother's mouth.
Natsuno: "..."
Xia Ye: "Drink it yourself, and bring a bottle of water when you go out, do you know."
