Chapter 90 Cooking at the same frequency
The Liu family made its fortune from Liu Zhang, or maybe Liu Zhang was the founder of the Liu family!
Yipinlou was so famous that it accumulated wealth and fame, so that the second generation had the capital to engage in business. Although it was not among the best in the country, it still had a say in Pengcheng, while the third generation was involved in politics.
Whether they are the second generation or the third generation, the reason why they can stand up is because they stand on Liu Zhang's shoulders.
For example, the second generation of businessmen, even now, have not been able to escape the influence of the old man. After all, the number one celebrity chef in Guangdong is quite powerful in certain circles.
Therefore, when the old man is in the Liu family, he always speaks the truth, even if he is terminally ill, after all, he is the anchor of the family!
"Second brother, I told you not to panic, why are you still looking like this!"
The old man glanced at his second son, feeling a little unhappy.
Liu Kaitai repeatedly said yes, but then said helplessly: "Dad, your health is..."
Liu Zhang said angrily: "I don't know about my own body. People always die one day. But I, Liu Zhang, started from a young age and lived to this age. I have experienced what I should have experienced and seen everything I should see."
Yes, I have regrets. I should be relieved if I don’t worry about you... After thinking about it, the only thing that makes me interested is cooking!"
"Tianming and the others have the ability to take care of Yipinlou, but they can only take care of it. If they want to take Yipinlou's reputation to a higher level, I'm afraid there's no chance!"
People like to talk nonsense when they are old, but everyone knows that the old man is dying and may die one day, so he listens quietly.
Sure enough, the old man is still worried about the next level!
It’s no wonder that the Liu family’s basic base is Yipinlou!
For the younger ones, the money for their children came from Yipinlou. For the older ones, they came from south to north, frightening peddlers and lackeys. Even for political and business celebrities, their connections also came from Yipinlou.
After nearly seventy years of hard work, I am even closer than these children, how could I let it go?
especially……
The old man failed to teach a disciple who was better than his predecessor. As he said, Tianming had the ability to take care of Yipinlou, but it was absolutely impossible to restore the former glory or even raise his reputation to a higher level.
"Dad, you have experienced this ups and downs countless times, now let them handle it!"
Among the five Liu Kaitai brothers and sisters, he is the only one who can come here anytime and anywhere.
The old man was silent. He had already talked a lot. He was a little tired, so he withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhou You who was busy in the kitchen.
He just talked for so long without looking back, which he liked very much.
You have to act like you're doing something, and it's up to you to make things happen. This is what he later understood. The heat depends on the minute, and sometimes even if you don't look at it for a second, something will happen to the frying pan.
Seeing that the old man didn't want to talk anymore, the others had no choice but to give up. Among the second generation, only Liu Kaitai and his younger sister Liu Tingfang came over. Among the third generation, there were Liu Huinian, Liu Shaoyao, Liu Ruolan...
"Is this the one Qing Yao mentioned?"
Liu Kaitai came over and asked curiously.
Liu Qingyao nodded and said: "I mentioned him again a few days ago, so I called him over!"
Liu Tingfang frowned and said, "You shouldn't disturb the old man!"
The Liu family all knew very well that the hospital issued a notice a few days ago, and it was only a week at most. Calculating the time, there were only three days left. Although many famous doctors were consulted during this period, and even Mr. Huang Zhongting from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital also read it.
, still the same words.
Old and frail, various complications have occurred, and there is no possibility of recovery.
Liu Qingyao knew what her sister-in-law meant and said: "Instead of sitting like this and basking in the sun every day, why not let the old man have more color in his days these days!"
"And... I believe the old man will be shocked by Zhou You!"
Shocked!
Liu Ruolan smiled and said: "It seems that my sister is very confident in this Zhou You!"
What Liu Qingyao said is true. There are only three days left to live, but they can't even leave the house. They can only bask in the sun and wait for death. If they were them, they would probably want more people around them, or a wave of mood swings before they die!
Seeing that Liu Qingyao didn't answer, Liu Shaoyao said: "Although I don't know how good my cooking skills are, but... he is quite handsome!"
Her words had such meaning that everyone looked at Liu Qingyao.
The old man's love for Liu Qingyao is well known, even more than his eldest grandson!
This is related to the fact that the old man left Yipinlou exclusively to Liu Qingyao.
That was the core of the Liu family, and in some ways, it was comparable to an ancestral hall, but the old man had made it clear long ago, and it was hard for others to say anything.
Liu Qingyao naturally understood the meaning and ignored it, continuing to look at Zhou You.
Two courses!
Pork belly chicken and Buddha jumping over the wall!
Exactly two dishes that take time.
Also because it took time, other members of the Liu family also arrived one after another, and their words were very different. Some agreed with Liu Qingyao's move, while others thought it was inappropriate.
This is actually a different understanding of death and different choices made!
As time passed, the smell of meat gradually dissipated. Because of the old man in the family, almost everyone in the Liu family knew how to cook. Because of this, some people's eyes gradually brightened.
“Great taste!”
"Yes, he has a strong ability to control fire. I saw it when he fished it out just now. The meat is plump and the time is just right!"
The initial cooking is done, and then comes the various ingredients.
Among pork belly and chicken, in addition to chicken and pork belly, the most important thing is the combination of various mushrooms.
The ingredients are all brought from Yipinlou and are of high quality, especially the various fresh or dried mushrooms.
Cut the pork belly and chicken, then take out the casserole that you have prepared earlier, pour the soup water used to cook the meat, then add the red dates, wolfberry, various ingredients and soaked dried mushrooms, and cook on high heat for three minutes.
When the frying pan is ready, turn off the heat, let it cool for a while, then add the chopped pork belly and chicken, and continue cooking over high heat!
At this time, the soup in the pot was pure white and rolling, and like this, the aroma of the restaurant had completely dissipated.
"this……"
"It looks like grandpa's technique!"
"Yes, it looks good!"
The old man here was staring at Zhou You. He had stopped talking a long time ago, but his eyes were getting brighter and brighter.
As a chef, because I am older, my sense of smell and taste may not be as sharp as before, but they are still as strong as ordinary people.
He could tell how well the meat was cooked from the familiar aroma.
So when the thick fog rose, he judged in his mind that it was time to take out the pot, and then Zhou Youzhen opened the pot.
Judging by the heat, what ingredients should be added, and then Zhou Youzhen started to add ingredients.
With this same frequency again and again, he even knew the final taste of this pot of pork belly and chicken soup.
Does it really smell like him?
But you know, he never spoke from the beginning.
And he taught so many disciples how to cook pork belly and chicken soup, but no one could share what he had in mind!
