Chapter 34 Celebration
He Yuzhu obtained the third-level chef certificate. This chef certificate is not very important for a chef who has been working in major restaurants and has been famous for a long time. Because people have recognized their cooking skills.
But the chef certificate is very important to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu is too young. Even if someone says how good his cooking skills are, others will think it is impossible and bragging at first impression.
With a chef's certificate, there is an endorsement. By showing the chef's certificate directly, others will know how good his cooking skills are, which can save a lot of unnecessary entanglements.
When I arrived at Master's house, I shouted happily as soon as I entered the door: "Master, I passed the exam and got the third-level chef certificate."
"Zhuzi, you really got it, show it to the master's wife." After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the master's wife came out of the room and said.
"Master's wife, here you go." He Yuzhu handed the certificate to Master's wife.
"I want to see it too, I want to see it too." Yuyu and Xiaohu jumped around the teacher's wife, wanting to see the certificate in the teacher's wife's hand.
"Okay, okay, let's watch together." The mistress led them to the table and watched together.
"That's great, that's great. Have you told your master?" the master's wife said happily.
"Not yet. As soon as I get the certificate, I will come back and tell my wife. I will tell the master right away." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, go quickly. Make your master happy too," said the master's wife.
He Yuzhu got on his bicycle and went to Fengze Garden to tell Master the good news.
When I arrived at Fengze Garden, I said to Master Fan Dakang as soon as I entered Master's office: "Master, I passed the examination and got my chef certificate."
"Okay, okay, okay, just pass the exam. Zhuzi is really yours. Have you told your wife?" Fan Dakang said happily.
"I told you. Once I get the certificate, I will go back and tell my wife." He Yuzhu said.
"Zhuzi, since you have obtained the third-level chef certificate. I have been suppressing you from being allowed to become a chef. I think it is better to take advantage of this time to celebrate you and hold a apprenticeship banquet together." Master Fan Dakang said.
"I listen to Master." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, then it's settled. Let me see, let's make it three days later. Just inform whoever you want to invite as soon as possible." Fan Dakang said.
"Okay, Master." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, that's it. I don't need you to help cook today. You can go back first." Master Fan Dakang said.
"By the way, Master. I think we should celebrate tonight first, and then you can get off work early." He Yuzhu said before leaving.
"Okay, if nothing happens for a while, I will go back early." Fan Dakang said.
He Yuzhu left Fengzeyuan and went to his senior sister Fan Ting's house. He Yuzhu knocked on the door, and senior sister Fan Ting was surprised to see He Yuzhu.
"Senior sister, I have obtained the third-level chef certificate. Come and invite you back to my master's house. Let's celebrate together in the evening." He Yuzhu said.
"Zhuzi, have you really obtained the third-level chef certificate? That's great, Zhuzi, congratulations." Fan Ting said in surprise.
"Then let's go. I'll send you there first, and then I'll inform my brother-in-law." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, wait until I lock the door." Fan Ting said.
He Yuzhu waited while Fan Ting locked the door and took Fan Ting back to the master's house.
"Mom, I'm back." Fan Ting shouted.
"When you're back, come in quickly." The master's wife said.
"Master, I told Master, let's celebrate together tonight." He Yuzhu said.
"This is a happy event and it's time to celebrate." said the master's wife.
"Master's wife, I'm going to inform my brother-in-law to pick up Fan Yao and buy some food by the way." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, then go ahead." The master's wife said.
He Yuzhu first rode to the Industrial Safety Office, notified his brother-in-law Zhou Jianye, and went to the master's house for dinner in the evening. Then he left on his bicycle, picked up Fan Yao from school, and sent her back to the master's house.
He Yuzhu went back and forth several times, putting fish, meat, vegetables, wine, etc. into the kitchen.
Since it was getting late, He Yuzhu didn't plan to make any troublesome dishes.
He took out some pig ears, pork belly, pork head meat, etc. that He Yuzhu had braised for a long time from the space, and made a braised pork platter. The specialty boiled fish is indispensable, braised pork, kung pao chicken, pot pork, musu pork, braised prawns, and a few stir-fried vegetables.
After He Yuzhu was finished, his master and brother-in-law Zhou Jianye came back.
A large group of people sat down around the table.
"Good guy, it's quite rich." Zhou Jianye said.
"Zhuzi, I've been busy in the kitchen for a while, how can I not have a good time?" Fan Ting said.
He Yuzhu opened a bowl of Wangyou and said to Zhou Jianye: "Let's drink some white wine today."
"Okay, your wine is good, not too bad." Zhou Jianye said.
"Sister, would you like to have some wine or something else with your wife?" He Yuzhu asked.
"Drink some wine." Fan Ting said.
"Brother Zhuzi, what should we drink?" Fan Yao asked.
"Watermelon juice prepared for you. How is it?" He Yuzhu said.
"Okay. Thank you, Brother Zhuzi." Fan Yao said.
Everyone filled their glasses.
"Come, let's first congratulate Zhuzi for getting the third-level chef certificate." Master Fan Dakang said.
"It's all taught well by Master." He Yuzhu said.
Everyone raised their glasses together, "Cheers."
"Use your chopsticks and try Zhu Zhu's craftsmanship." Fan Dakang said.
Everyone moves the chopsticks together.
After drinking and eating, He Yuzhu, his master and Zhou Jianye sat in the courtyard and drank tea together.
"Zhuzi, you have also obtained your chef certificate. What are your plans for the future? Why don't you stay in Fengze Garden?" Fan Dakang asked.
"Master, I think Fengzeyuan is too busy now, so I will help the cook, which is good. If I were full-time, my position would overlap with that of the second senior brother, and Fengzeyuan would not let me hold the title of third-level chef. Use the money to do odd jobs." He Yuzhu said.
"It's true. It's okay when you're busy, but a bit redundant when you're idle." Fan Dakang said.
"Zhuzi, why don't you come to our place?" Zhou Jianye said.
"Brother-in-law, are you kidding me? There are only a dozen of you, but we still need a chef? Just find anyone who can cook." He Yuzhu said.
"Why don't we need a chef? We work so hard every day. What's wrong with eating better? Besides, we also have to deal with other units and receive reception." Zhou Jianye said.
"Just hire a cooking aunt to solve the problem. Find a chef and you won't be afraid of something happening. Besides, you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to prepare the reception banquet. If so, you can come to me directly and I will cook it for you for free. Just one table is enough," He Yuzhu said.
"This is what you said, I remember it." Zhou Jianye.
"He is waiting for me here." He Yuzhu said.
"Hey hey hey," Zhou Jianye said as if he had stolen the chicken.
"Many restaurants are short of chefs, but your age is a disadvantage and you are not convinced." Master Fan Dakang said.
"Master, I think it's pretty good now. I earn enough money to support my sister. I also have time to study cooking skills," He Yuzhu said.
"Then let's do this for now." Fan Dakang said helplessly.
After chatting for a while, He Yuzhu and Zhou Jianye stood up and left.
