This afternoon, Sha Zhu once again displayed his superb cooking skills, which satisfied the factory leaders and the guests. Ma Hua also benefited a lot and learned a lot of cooking knowledge, and even learned from Sha Zhu. , I brought back a lunch box of good food. I don’t have to cook by myself tonight. Of course, Silly Zhu didn’t forget to fill his lunch box, but this is also the benefit of being a cook. As the saying goes, if a cook doesn’t steal, the grain will not be abundant. , of course, this is not considered stealing. The factory leaders also knew the cook's practice and were not angry.
Ma Hua and Sha Zhu were walking on the road, talking about some knowledge about cooking. Most of them were asked by Ma Hua. Sha Zhu was answering Ma Hua's doubts. Both of them were holding a lunch box in their hands. Sha Zhu was holding a lunch box. There was also an old hen in it, which was the apprenticeship gift given by MCA in the morning.
When the two returned to the courtyard, it was still dark. Ma Hua originally wanted to go back to his house to have dinner, but Shazhu took him back to his house and had dinner together. He Yuyu was already working at this time and was not at home. So Silly Zhu was alone at home, and Old Hen couldn't eat alone. In addition to the food he brought back from the reception, he had to drag Ma Hua to have a drink with him. Ma Hua thought about it, but he didn't object and went back by himself. He is also a person, so it would be nice to have a drink with Master.
Since Ma Hua and Sha Zhu had dinner together, Sha Zhu would naturally not let go of the opportunity to teach. While handling the old hen and stewing the old hen, he explained various knowledge to Ma Hua. The words were concise and comprehensive, and they were all useful information. Sha Zhu was even more He asked Ma Hua to make a few simple Sichuan dishes based on his own teachings using ingredients from his home. In just half an hour or so, the two of them prepared a table of delicious food. With such a standard of living, the whole courtyard was stupid. Zhu and Xu Damao's family have it, and the rest, even Yi Zhonghai's family, can't be so luxurious. It's not that they don't have money, but they can't get so many ingredients.
As a movie projectionist, when Xu Damao shows movies in the countryside below, the village will give away some local specialties, which can be regarded as additional welfare income. Moreover, his wife Lou Xiao'e's family is a big capitalist and owns a part of the shares in the steel rolling mill, so there is no shortage of these good things. .
As a cook, Shazhu naturally has many channels and can get many ingredients that ordinary people don't have. In addition, he often helps the factory entertain and undertake various banquets, so he is not short of money.
Ma Hua looked at the bottle of fine Xifeng wine that Shazhu took out, his eyes lit up and he praised it.
"Master, you have such a good thing, you really surprised me!" Silly Zhu chuckled and opened the wine. Ma Hua was about to take the Xifeng wine and pour it. Silly Zhu shook his head and poured himself a full glass first. When Ma Hua got a glass, Ma Hua held the wine glass respectfully with both hands. Silly Zhu waved his hands and said directly.
"Okay, okay! Let's go home. There's no need to be so formal. We master and apprentice don't need to practice these etiquettes!" Ma Hua looked at the smile on Silly Zhu's face and nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. Sometimes there are too many etiquettes. , would also make people uncomfortable, so Ma Hua relaxed a little. Since the master had an order, he would naturally obey it.
"Master, let me give you a toast!" Ma Hua relaxed a lot at this time and did not engage in any nonsense. He just sat on the bench and touched Si Zhu. Sure enough, Si Zhu felt much more comfortable. He is also a A rough man can't stand so many etiquettes. Although MCA treats him respectfully, he can't stand the restraint of etiquette, so he doesn't have to pay attention to these etiquettes.
The two of them raised their heads and took a sip, then picked up Kuaizi and took a bite of the food. It was pleasant and comfortable. There were only four dishes on the table, two of which were brought back from the factory, and the remaining two were Ma Hua made it himself. As for the old hen soup, it is still simmering on the stove. This soup needs time, at least an hour of simmering, to make it delicious.
As soon as Xu Damao came home and put his coat on the hanger, Lou Xiao'e said quickly.
"Da Mao, our old hen has been stolen!" Who is Xu Damao? He is a villain. When he heard that someone had stolen his old hen, he became furious on the spot and went directly to the three uncles of the courtyard to make the decision.
There are three uncles in MCA's courtyard. The first uncle is Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level fitter. He is decent and upright, and deeply respected by everyone; the second uncle Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level blacksmith, likes to work hard, is obsessed with officials, and has a bad temper. They are always beating and scolding their own children, and they are paternalistic; the third uncle, Yan Bugui, is a primary school Chinese teacher. He is stingy, likes to calculate, and loves petty gains. He is a typical literati style, a little fake and high-minded, and talks about big principles. He likes Drop the book bag.
On weekdays, the status of the three uncles in the courtyard is very important. From big things to petty crimes to trivial matters, these highly respected old people have to make decisions together in the courtyard. Sitting in a pile, hugging three uncles
"Three sessions of trial" are somewhat similar to a jury in a court of law. The three uncles were very surprised when they heard that Xu Damao's family lost an old hen in the courtyard house. The price of an old hen in this era was not cheap. It was enough to feed a family of four for a week, so they paid great attention to it and went from house to house. He knocked on the door and asked if he had seen Xu Damao's old hen.
Xu Damao followed several uncles and knocked on the door door to door, and finally came to the door of Sha Zhu's house. As soon as he walked in, he smelled a strong fragrance of old hen soup. Several people looked at each other, and Xu Damao looked even more angry. Banging on the door made Sha Zhu and Ma Hua, who were drinking together, a little annoyed. They opened the door angrily and saw the three uncles and Xu Damao. They asked in confusion.
"Three uncles, what's wrong with you?" Xu Damao was impatient and mistakenly thought that Silly Zhu was a chicken thief. He finally caught Silly Zhu's handle. Before the uncles could say anything, he was going to get into the house and catch one. People get stolen goods together.
Ma Hua, however, would not spoil Xu Damao. As soon as he saw a few people, he remembered what was going on. Naturally, he was not polite. He reached out and grabbed Xu Damao's arm and asked with a smile.
"Brother Xu, what are you doing? It doesn't seem right to get in there before the master says anything!" Xu Damao looked at the tall and powerful Ma Hua, full of anger, his eyes widened, and he said angrily.
"What does it have to do with you? Silly Zhu stole my old hen. I'm here to catch the thief and seize the stolen goods. Why are you meddling in it? Are you also an accomplice?" A cold light flashed in Ma Hua's eyes, and his face was like frost, which has not faded for thousands of years. , grabbed Xu Damao's hand with more strength, and Xu Damao screamed in pain.
"Brother Xu, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense!"
