Hardcore Chef Dad

Chapter 753: A few words before dinner (second update)

Views:

Feng Yifan got out of the car, and the three little girls quickly surrounded him, chattering together.

"Dad, can Xixi and Feifei stay at our house at night?"

"Dad Feng, the three of us want to live together in your house."

"Yes, Father Feng, please talk to my grandparents."

It turned out that the three little girls discussed privately that they wanted to stay together at Feng Ruoruo's house tonight. The three little girls even discussed sleeping together in Feng Ruoruo's room.

But Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei were worried that their parents and grandparents would not agree.

So the three little girls hoped that Feng Yifan would come forward and help them tell Chen Yaofei's grandparents and Yang Xiaoxi's parents about this matter.

Feng Yifan looked at the expectant expressions on the three little girls' faces and felt a little reluctant to refuse.

After thinking for a while, Feng Yifan said, "How about this, let's go upstairs first. Ruoruo's mother and grandfather must be impatient. Let's go upstairs first, and then I will discuss it with Feifei's grandparents and Xixi's parents, okay?"

When the three little girls heard this, they knew that Mr. Feng was willing to help, so they naturally agreed immediately.

Afterwards, Feng Yifan and his friends took their luggage out of the car.

As for the luggage at Yang Xiaoxi's home, it must have been placed in the car, waiting to be taken back.

Chen Xu and Luo Yu originally wanted to put their luggage in the car.

Feng Yifan said, "You can actually take your luggage down and leave it at my house first. When you get to the house you rent, you can take it there. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to go back and forth to the hotel."

Chen Xu thought about it and felt that it was right, so he took down his luggage.

But Luo Yu didn't take down the luggage: "I don't need it. There are many things I need in my suitcase. It's better to take them to the hotel."

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Well, it doesn't matter, you can follow your own arrangements."

Afterwards, the group took the elevator directly upstairs from the parking lot.

When the elevator door opened, Su Ruoxi was already waiting at the door pushing her father.

The three little girls rushed out of the elevator first and surrounded Ruoruo’s grandfather and mother.

"Grandpa, Mom, we are back."

"Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Aunt Su."

"Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Aunt Su. Feifei is back too."

Su Jinrong smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's good that you're back. If you don't come back, Ruoruo's mother will miss you to death."

Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "Yes, I miss you three little darlings. Come in quickly."

The three little girls also helped and pushed Su Jinrong back home.

After entering the house, Feng Ruoruo and the other two little girls told Su Ruoxi again that they wanted to sleep together at night.

"Mom, please help Xixi and Feifei talk to grandpa, grandma, uncle and aunt."

"Aunt Su, can you tell my parents for me?"

"Aunt Su, can you help me talk to grandpa and grandma?"

After hearing what the three little girls said, Su Ruoxi smiled and agreed: "Okay, I'll go and talk to them for you. I think Feifei's grandparents and Xixi's parents will definitely agree."

The three little girls were naturally very happy and cheered happily in the house.

The group of people behind came in and heard the three little girls cheering, and they all looked a little strange.

Without waiting for the adults to ask, Su Ruoxi told the whole story.

"I think the three little girls haven't had enough fun today, so let them stay at our house for another night. Ruoruo's room is big anyway, and the bed can accommodate all three of them."

Chen Shoulin smiled and said, "Isn't this a bad idea? You just came back today, so you should let Yifan have a good rest at home. If you have three children at home, I'm afraid it will affect your rest, right?"

Feng Yifan said: "It's okay, now Ruoruo has her own room, it won't affect my rest."

Feng Ruoruo stood up and said to her father, "Yes, I have my own room. I can take Xixi and Feifei to play in my room without disturbing mom, dad, grandpa, and grandma."

Hearing the little girl say this, Yang Zhiyi said, "Why don't you let Feifei stay here? Xixi, didn't you stay at Ruoruo's house the last time you came back? Come home with your parents today."

Yang Xiaoxi immediately said, "No, I haven't lived in Ruoruo's house with Feifei yet."

Yang Zhiyi was a little amused and helpless by what his daughter said.

"Aren't they the same? They are all in Ruoruo's room. How come there is one more Feifei? Are you three different from two?"

Yang Xiaoxi said seriously: "It's different."

Yang Zhiyi asked his daughter: "What's the difference?"

This question really confused the little girl.

But after all, there were three little girls there, so Chen Yaofei stepped forward to help: "Uncle Yang, last time Ruoruo and Xixi were two children, this time with me, there are three children."

When Yang Xiaoxi heard this, she immediately thought of it and quickly said to her father, "Yes, Dad, you can't even count. Last time we were two children, and today we are three children, so it's different. It must be different for us three children to live together than for two children."

Yang Xiaoxi's somewhat tongue-twisting words left Yang Zhiyi at a loss as to how to refute them.

At this time, everyone was impressed by Chen Yaofei's wit and was even more amused by the Yang father and daughter.

Li Feier pouted and said to her husband, "Look, you are not as good as those little girls. You talked for so long, but in the end you can't win over two little girls."

Yang Zhiyi looked at his wife and said, "Then you tell me."

Finally, Li Feier said, "I didn't say I disagree."

After hearing what her mother said, Yang Xiaoxi quickly asked, "Mom, do you agree that I can stay here?"

Li Feier smiled and pinched her daughter's face: "I agree, because you are staying at Ruoruo's house today, mom and dad can go home and pack up. Mom wants to see if the clothes your dad washed for you are all clean. If not, mom will wash them again."

When Yang Zhiyi heard his wife say this, his face suddenly turned red.

Catching sight of her husband's blushing face, Li Fei'er leaned in and whispered, "Go home and wait for me."

Yang Zhiyi finally understood that his wife agreed to let their daughter stay because she wanted to take the opportunity to clean herself up. He looked helpless, and he felt bitter but couldn't say it.

Yang Xiaoxi's family has already agreed, and all that remains is for Chen Yaofei's grandparents to agree.

The little girl looked eagerly at her grandparents.

Grandma Li Xiuchun said, "Okay, Feifei, please stay too. This way, Grandpa and I can go home and clean up the house. After we are done, Feifei can go home."

When Chen Yaofei heard what her grandma said, she was so happy that she rushed over and hugged her grandma.

"Thank you, grandma."

Chen Shoulin said beside him: "Why? Just thanking grandma?"

Chen Yaofei turned around and said to her grandfather, "Thank you, Grandpa."

The old couple smiled and said, "You're welcome."

At noon, everyone did not eat at Feng Yifan's house, but went to Lin Ruifeng's breakfast shop together, where they tasted the traditional dishes cooked by Feng Yifan.

It was the first time that Chen Xu and Luo Yu saw Feng Yifan cooking.

Seeing Feng Yifan put on chef's uniform and stand in the kitchen waving various kitchen utensils, the two of them were really in awe.

The two originally thought that Feng Yifan was a top chef in a three-star restaurant abroad, and his knife skills and fire skills in Chinese cooking might be a little worse.

But after seeing Feng Yifan's cooking skills, the two were still amazed.

Whether it was the superb knife skills, the control of the fire, or even the movements of flipping the pan and frying, they all opened Chen Xu and Luo Yu's eyes.

Luo Yu couldn't help but exclaimed: "The chef is really amazing. It feels like those knives, spoons and pots are just like toys in his hands. They are very obedient."

Chen Xu also exclaimed: "I thought that the traditional skills had regressed since the chef came back from abroad."

Lin Ruifeng said: "How could that be? Master's skills have never deteriorated. You know, Master can still cut dishes like Wensi Tofu."

Chen Xu was shocked: "What? Can the chef make Wensi tofu?"

Seeing Chen Xu's shocked expression, Lin Ruifeng said calmly, "What's so surprising about this? Su Ji's dishes are considered Huaiyang cuisine, so how could the chef of Su Ji not be able to make Wensi tofu?"

Su Jinrong said, "Ruifeng, you can't say that. Not all Huaiyang chefs can make Wensi tofu. That dish is considered the pinnacle of Huaiyang knife skills, so the chefs who can really make it have to practice for many years."

Lin Ruifeng immediately put away his pride and said very humbly, "Yes, I understand, Master."

Feng Yifan was alone in the kitchen, quickly preparing and serving the dishes.

No one was allowed to intervene and help throughout the process.

After seeing this, Chen Xu and Luo Yu admired Feng Yifan's ability even more.

Chen Shoulin smiled and said to the two of them, "Perhaps you don't know that when Yifan first came back to support Su Ji, he was the only one busy for a long time."

Ma Xiaolong said: "It's not strange for Master to do all this alone. When Master and I were abroad, we also supported the restaurant by ourselves."

Luo Yu quickly asked: "Is it Perovence?"

Ma Xiaolong nodded: "Yes, at that time, Perovence was on the verge of bankruptcy, and there was almost no one in the kitchen. My master and I had to go shopping every day, and then we had to clean and process all the main ingredients and auxiliary ingredients ourselves, and even the broth had to be boiled by ourselves."

Speaking of this, Ma Xiaolong also recalled the time when he followed Feng Yifan.

That period of time was very difficult, but Ma Xiaolong felt very happy because he learned a lot of real skills during that time.

As for later, when Feng Yifan supported the Perovence Restaurant and made it gradually profitable.

The restaurant then had funds and hired some subsequent chefs.

Rodney was also hired by the restaurant owner for a large sum of money.

At that time, Rodney already had experience running a two-star restaurant.

But when he arrived in Perovence and met Feng Yifan, Rodney still followed Feng Yifan's arrangements obediently and humbly followed Feng Yifan to learn.

This is also the reason why Rodney was able to keep the three-star rating of Perovence Restaurant after Feng Yifan left.

Feng Yifan worked very quickly and soon dishes were served.

Many of the dishes on the banquet are classics of Huaiyang cuisine, and some are Suzhou dishes that Feng Yifan developed with his father-in-law when he was in the countryside.

After Feng Yifan had served all the food, he smiled and greeted everyone, saying, "Okay, the dishes are all served, everyone come and have a taste."

Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Yifan, before we eat, shouldn't you say a few words?"

After listening to his father-in-law's words, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "I won't say anything, right? How about Dad, you say something?"

Su Jinrong waved his hand: "No, you must say it. You are the chef of Su Ji. All the operations of Su Ji in the future will depend on you. Everyone here is recruited by you. They are part of your team, so you should say something to them."

Others all said that Feng Yifan should say something.

Feng Ruoruo reached out and pulled her father and said, "Dad, go ahead and talk. Grandpa asked you to talk."

Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "Yes, boy, stop being so pretentious and just speak."

Feng Yifan nodded: "Okay, then I'll say a few words."

Everyone sat down and began to listen to Feng Yifan's words.

"First of all, I want to thank you all for your trust and support, especially Senior Sister, Ma Xiaolong, Chen Xu, and Luo Yu. You trust me and come to Su Ji. Su Ji, my father-in-law, and my family are all very grateful for your strong support."

After hearing what her father said, Feng Ruoruo immediately said, "Thank you, Ruoruo."

Su Ruoxi pulled her daughter and said, "Ruoruo, don't say anything. Let Daddy speak."

The little girl sat down obediently and covered her mouth with her hands, as if to promise not to talk nonsense.

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Yes, my daughter also thanks you for coming."

Then Feng Yifan continued: "Secondly, I have already told you some of my thoughts and ideas about the future development of Su Ji, but I may not have told everyone completely, so I will explain it again here seriously and comprehensively.

Su Ji must stick to its own characteristics, some of the cooking techniques of our Chinese dishes, and the taste of our Chinese food.

But we cannot limit ourselves to tradition. We need to integrate new things and some Western techniques into tradition to better enhance Su Ji.

More importantly, my goal is to make Su Ji a benchmark for domestic food culture restaurants.

We should not lose our culture, whether it is literature, art or cuisine.

We cannot completely abandon those traditions, but should inherit them while adding some of our own understanding and improving them with some new methods today so that the traditions can be better developed and passed on.

So I hope that everyone can bring out their own creativity, and together, based on our own traditions, we can create something that can be favored by young people in China and even food lovers around the world, so that our food culture can be carried forward.”

Feng Yifan's long speech made everyone present, especially those who joined Su Ji, extremely excited.

Led by three little girls, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei, everyone applauded Feng Yifan vigorously, and everyone's eyes were full of longing.
