Chapter 15: Chef Wei Cos to the Jiang Ho
That day, Qi Zhifan and Pei Yuyang completed their swimming workout. They were driving back from the swimming pool, when they happened to pass by a shopping mall. Pei Yuyang suddenly thought to buy sothing, and then he pulled Qi Zhifan into the mall.
Qi Zhifan accompanied him and thought Pei Yuyang was going to buy jewelry to gift, or to see the latest style of clothes, pants, shoes, or sothing. Who knew that he’d go back and forth and take several turns around to choose so hats.
At this mont, the two n went to the hat store and faced a variety of colorful hats on the display shelf. After Pei Yuyang selected a few hats and baseball caps, his eyes couldn’t help from crossing a bit.
“Ah Fan, quickly help take a look and pick so good-looking ones.”
Qi Zhifan saw that the limitless types of hats bought were more or less all for n, so asked, “Is it for you to wear, or to give to soone else?”
Still carefully selecting hats, Pei Yuyang smiled, “I’m giving it to Curlie. I found out that he really likes hats and is a hat fanatic.”
“Aren’t you a pig lover, now you’re changing to a dog lover? This couldn’t be the aftereffects of being bitten last ti, right?”
In the past, Pei Yuyang always took great pains for his family’s Archie, simply dressing up the black wild boar as a pink little princess. Now, it doesn’t surprise Qi Zhifan that he’d buy a hat for a dog.
“......” Pei Yuyang smile was a little stiff, “Ah Fan, Curlie isn’t a dog, he’s a person.”
“Person? A man?”
“Yes, Curlie: that hair, that look, that face is simply way too cute ah! He’s worthy to be the man chosen by my family’s Archie in just one glance.” Pei Yuyang’s face was full of infatuation.
The corner of Qi Zhifan’s mouth pulled. “I see he’s also to your taste, right?”
Pei Yuyang touched his nose and didn’t speak. He turned and went to see the hats on the other side of the shelf.
Was he being shy? Qi Zhifan was a little surprised. He’d known Pei Yuyang for so long. This person, no matter who he sees, he can affectionately shout out “dear”. His skin was thick enough to wrap around the city walls, three layers deep. Unexpectedly, he can also be shy?
Early Saturday morning, Jiang Chengrui rode a motorbike and carried Wei Han all the way back to his ho.
Jiang Chengrui’s family lived in a very ordinary community, and of course, it couldn’t be compared to the Qi ho in the city center. Here, the managent was imperfect, and the related facilities were incomplete. This made Wei Han think of the house he’d rented in his past life and rember working in a foreign place all alone to painstakingly collect money, but also always receiving unfair treatnt, ai.
But now, everything was different.
“woof woof! woof woof woof! woof woof woof...”
Through the anti-theft iron gate, a burst of dog barking ca out from the house. Wei Han suddenly thought of Pei Yuyang, who seed to have been bitten by the family dog and sent to the hospital. Tch, that was brutal.
Wei Han imdiately wiped his sweat. “Little Jiang, your family dog is really spirited, so he barks so happily. When I go in, he won’t...won’t directly tackle down, right?”
“No, my dogs are too small to jump on you. At most, they will attack you from all sides and surround you. But don’t worry, Little Yi will look after them well.”
The second before, Wei Han heard the words “too small” and couldn’t help but be relieved. But the next second, he heard “they”! What’s this situation?
After Wei Han crossed the threshold, Wei Han, this unfamiliar guest, was surrounded by five fierce Chihuahuas.
“Big Baby, Second Baby, Third Baby, Fourth Baby, Fifth Baby, co to .”
Little Yi ca out from the back room, opened his mouth and beckoned with his little hand before he called them one by one to his side.
Wei Han: “......”
It’s okay to raise five Chihuahuas at once, but these dog nas...Hey, they’re not the Gourd Brothers! [1]
Staying in the living room with his life always under the threat of these five fierce creatures, Wei Han felt a bit like he was sitting on a blanket of needles. “Little Jiang, are you sure sothing won’t happen to later? Last ti, Pei Yuyang, he...”
Wei Han hadn’t finished yet when Little Yi, who was teasing the dog over on sofa, said, “It was Purple Sheep who was seeking his own death. He actually dared to hold big brother without letting go. In the end, Big Baby, Second Baby, and Third Baby sward around, and he ended up in tragedy.” Finished talking, Little Yi also spread his hands.
Imdiately, Wei Han and Jiang Chengrui pulled away a distance.
Jiang Chengrui was dumbfounded, “Silly Han, you really don’t have to be afraid.”
“And Little Yi, I’ve told you how many tis not to ntion that pervert. How can you not rember?”
“I’m also kindly reminding Brother Wei Wei,” Little Yi pouted.
“Little Yi, my na is Wei Han.”
“Uh-huh, I know, Brother Wei Wei.”
Wei Han: “......”
Thinking of Pei Yuyang becoming “Purple Sheep”, this bear child also has special naming skills.
Later, seeing Wei Han was still a little afraid of the dogs, Jiang Chengrui simply took him into his room so that he could be at ease to help him review.
“Silly Han, you sit first. I’ll go pour water for you.”
“Yeah, thanks.”
Jiang Chengrui’s room was well-organized, which made Wei Han a bit surprised. He’d originally thought that Little Jiang, such a boy would have a ssier and untidy room. The most obvious thing in the room was the big sandbag hanging in it. This made Wei Han look at it several tis; Little Jiang had really trained.
Walking to the desk and taking out the notes from each class that he’d organized, Wei Han looked up and caught a glimpse of the photo on the table.
After picking up the fra, Wei Han looked at the happy family of five in the photo: Dad and Mom Jiang, Little Jiang’s big sister, Little Jiang and Little Yi. Their faces were filled with smiles, and everyone was holding a Chihuahua in their arms. The picture was warm and harmonious.
“Silly Han, what are you looking at?” At this ti, Jiang Chengrui happened to co in, carrying two glasses of water.
“Little Jiang, your parents and your sister? Why aren’t they ho on a Saturday?”
“......” Jiang Chengrui froze in an instant, and it was a long ti before he whispered, “My sister is working overti today. She’s also very busy at work and is rarely ho. As for my parents, they...”
Seeing Jiang Chengrui’s desolate expression, Wei Han imdiately realized that he was wrong. “I’m sorry, Little Jiang, I seem to have asked sothing I shouldn’t have. Never mind, you don’t have to force yourself to answer .”
Jiang Chengrui shook his head and took the picture from Wei Han’s hand, a gray shadow covering his pupils. “Letting you know about this also doesn’t matter. Actually, three years ago...my parents were in a car accident and they’ve already passed away.”
In this instant, Wei Han suddenly understood a lot of things: this family not being well-off, Jiang Chengrui having several part-ti jobs, his busy sister, the originally mischievous Little Yi becoming restrained in these past few years...
Later, Wei Han reorganized his emotions and devoted himself to drawing up a review plan for Jiang Chengrui, also marking the key questions for him. So of the difficult subjects involved reasoning and calculation. Jiang Chengrui listened, and had to scratch his head. Wei Han patiently explained them several more tis.
“Silly Han, if I flunk, my sister will kill ,” Jiang Chengrui wailed.
Perhaps because Jiang Chengrui’s martial skills were too off-the-charts, so God didn’t him a good head. Plus, he usually slept in class every day, and was completely reduced to the learning dregs.
Looking at him like this, it was also a bit cute. Wei Han smiled, “Little Jiang, rember these things that I’ve explained to you, and I’ll make sure you can pass.”
“Really? If I can pass through the door, I’ll buy you a big al.”
“Mhm, then I’ll be waiting.”
At lunch, Jiang Chengrui wanted to cook for Wei Han. Although Wei Han wanted to help, Jiang Chengrui insisted that Wei Han was a guest and refused to let him into the kitchen, saying that he had his own “way of hospitality”.
Wei Han had no choice but to get ready to taste Little Jiang’s craftsmanship. But he saw to the side that Little Yi had a bitter expression on his face, arms holding a bucket of instant noodles.
“Little Yi, what are you doing?”
“I really don’t like eating big brother’s cooking. I would rather eat instant noodles.” Little Yi’s face was ashen and dejected.
Wei Han: “......”
You’re in front of an outsider. Is it really good for you to so bluntly badmouth your brother?
Soon after, Jiang Chengrui served a few freshly-made dishes. After Wei Han ate a mouthful of braised fish, he also imdiately had no love for life...
Obviously, these dishes looked pretty good, but how co eating it tasted like chewing wax? Maybe mom would feel that Jiang Chengrui was very talented and could follow her to learn the dark cuisine.
“Ai, I also know that I don’t cook well, but it’s not so bad that you’d spit it out, right? Silly Han, you just have to put up with it and eat it until you fill your belly. Don’t mind these little details.”
“......”
It turned out that Little Jiang’s way of hospitality was this kind of perfunctory way ah? Wei Han heart ached.
“Little Jiang, please let into the kitchen? Just once.”
“Okay, but I’m worried to leave you alone. I’ll have to go in to look over you.” Jiang Chengrui thought that Wei Han was so silly that he really was not very reliable, and might burn the kitchen down by chance.
In the kitchen, Wei Han decided to use the leftover ingredients and simply make a few ho-cooked dishes.
After washing the dishes and treating the cured at, Wei Han began chopping vegetables on the cutting board. He used a knife with suitable sharpness to cut out even slices of fish. The at chunks were almost the sa size, and the julienned potatoes were almost the sa length. The exquisite knife work really left Jiang Chengrui next to him gaping in awe. He seed to have also seen Wei Han carving a decorative design in the wax gourd in order to cut down the ti it took to absorb the flavor.
Hot pan and cold oil was the first step in stir-frying, “raw scallions, cooked garlic, half-cooked leeks” was also common sense. Wei Han always paid attention to the heat, stir-frying the leeks, green peppers and dried bean curd with a smooth motion, and also checking the timing to add in salt, soy sauce, cooking wine and other spices. When stewing the broth, he also called Jiang Chengrui to specially find a few pieces of orange peel to put in, saying that it was not only delicious, but also reduced the greasy feeling. Hearing this, Jiang Chengrui imdiately nodded.
A few monts later, what twice-cooked pork, stead squid, sweet and sour spareribs, and so on went on the table. Among these, several were topped by Wei Han’s own radish garnish and looked quite pleasing.
This well-established chef posture already made the Jiang brothers both dumbstruck, and couldn’t help but give Wei Han a thumbs-up.
A piece of at held between his chopsticks, Little Yi just took the first bite, and his eyes imdiately beca two big ❤ : “Brother Wei Wei, brother, you’re my real brother ah! Later, co to our house to cook every day, okay?”
Wei Han’s facial muscles twitched.
“Fuck, beat you to death, this dead boy!” Jiang Chengrui was dissatisfied and knocked on Little Yi’s head. He turned to Wei Han, clasped his fist and said, “Silly Han, you’re the legendary ‘Food God’! Teach how to cook, Master.”
Wei Han’s facial muscles twitched again.
“Ah-woo~” the five Chihuahuas were fortunate to lick up the delicious broth, and they were all conquered. Pairs of round, little eyes fondly gazed up at Wei Han, and they docilely stuck to his feet.
“......”
Wei Han, face full of black lines: Wasn’t it just a good al? Can the family’s people and dogs act a bit more normal?
Afterwards, everyone finally cald down...
“Silly Han, can you make any dish?”
“Pretty much,” Wei Han smiled brilliantly, and counting on his fingers, he slowly listed, “Chinese style, Western style dishes, cold cuts, dim sums, and so on, even mixing drinks, I’ve studied a little. But I’m best at desserts.”
Having heard his speech, Jiang Chengrui couldn’t help but sigh and said, “Wow! Isn’t it a pity that you just serve as a waiter in Brother Bohao’s shop? You can go to the back kitchen to help, ah. I will tell him. You can’t waste your talent.”
Then, Jiang Chengrui suddenly had another question. “Right, since you’re so aweso, why don’t you beco a chef? Or what about going into the dry food line?”
“This, it’s a bit hard to explain. In short, this life, I want to be a qualified police officer.” Wei Han couldn’t explain it well, and had to laugh.
“woof woof woof!”
At this ti, the five Chihuahuas suddenly rushed to the windows and fiercely barked out in unison.
“There’s a situation!” Little Yi, who’d just been gorging himself, quickly stood up and ran to the window.
