Chapter 954 - 401: Are Mending Meat Pies Too Small? Then Make the Hebei Specialty—Xianghe Meat Pie! [Requesting Monthly Ticket]
"Wow, this meat pie is really delicious!"
Chen Yan felt very lucky. Last time she went to sign the contract at Fishing Platform, she had the Braised Mutton. This time at Yanjing Hotel, she got to eat the juicy Mandu Meat Pie.
Looking back, if her sister’s husband finds a few more contract units, she would definitely gain weight following along.
Dou Wenjing finished the remaining meat pie and wiped off the grease from her hands with a napkin, whispering to Chen Yan:
"These small cold dishes are very tasty too, especially the salted almonds, they are refreshing and appetizing, complementing the meat pie perfectly."
Chen Yan finished the meat pie in a few quick bites and then picked up another one:
"If you want to eat, just have your brother-in-law make it. Since you’re the general manager, the little chef will have to listen to you, right?"
"Don’t fool me, if I lose my job, will you support me?"
"Sure, I happen to need a little secretary to massage my legs and shoulders."
"Go away, I won’t serve anyone."
While eating, the two didn’t forget to banter. When they were almost done, they simultaneously posted several photos of the Mandu Meat Pie in the group chat.
What to do after eating and drinking?
Of course, it’s to tempt the sisters!
As soon as the photos were posted, Shen Baobao sent a photo of Braised Pork Belly in the group:
"The Braised Pork Belly Wei Qian made today, each piece weighs nearly half a pound, and it’s so satisfying with rice."
You tempt, I counter-tempt.
Who’s afraid of whom?
Seeing this, Chen Yan immediately took a picture of the sauced beef on the table.
Shen Baobao then showcased the Crab Yellow Tofu made by Zhuang Yizhou.
Compared to the lady boss of Lin Ji, General Manager Chen’s dishes were somewhat lacking.
Dou Wenjing watched the sisters’ duel with a laugh.
This feeling of countering move for move was quite good.
But when the city gates catch fire, the fish in the moat suffer.
While the sisters were engaged in their intense duel, Xiao Qing, who was sitting in the business class of the high-speed train to Yinzhou, helplessly sent a pleading emoji in the group:
"Ladies, please stop your skills, I’m on the train with Manager Yan, haven’t eaten a grain of rice, if you keep this up, I might starve to death on this train."
Zeng Xiaoqi joined in, saying:
"Speaking as someone eating Noodles With Black Bean Sauce in the cafeteria, can you have your duel in private next time? It feels like you’re battling above my corpse."
Chen Yan sent a sly emoji:
"It’s just right since you’re so flat, isn’t it easy to step over?"
Zeng Xiaoqi: "..."
Could you stop hurting me, you old rogue?
Damn, I’m the campus belle of the Communication University, but you all mock me like a joke.
She didn’t respond to Chen Yan anymore, but instead tagged Xiao Qing and asked:
"Doesn’t the business car provide snacks? Didn’t get them today?" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"They did, but just as we got them, two little kids ran over from first class, a pair of twins, very cute, and Manager Yan immediately gave our snacks to them."
Well, after getting married, Manager Yan started liking kids.
Zeng Xiaoqi concluded:
"Never hang out with people who are in a relationship, or else you’ll just be miserable... Why didn’t you bring some food from the store before leaving?"
"Didn’t think of it, only saw it in the Lin Ji’s Food topic after getting seated, where Liang Mountain was reminding everyone traveling to bring some snacks from Lin Ji. Even if you don’t eat them, just having them open can make everyone in the cabin drool."
Though no one in the cabin was drooling yet, Shen Baobao and Chen Yan’s duel already made this secretary crave terribly.
While chatting, Shu Yun chimed in:
"These meat pies look pretty good, I wonder if the boss can make them."
Shen Baobao immediately replied:
"He can, he already promised to make them for me, we’ll feast in the afternoon!"
Chen Yan finally felt a bit superior and quickly boasted:
"In the afternoon, I won’t even care, Doudou and I are already so full now, aren’t you all jealous?"
Noticing her smug tone, Shen Baobao got fired up:
"Then I’ll have Xu Bao make an enormous Mandu Meat Pie and not let you eat it, hmph!"
Chen Yan originally wanted to keep bantering, but seeing those final words, she immediately changed the subject:
"By the way, Yueyue, I bought a bunch of toys for Dundun, sent to your address, with your phone number. Don’t forget to let my big nephew play with them when they arrive."
Hmph, keep bantering with me.
Seeing Chen Yan relent, Shen Baobao returned to her sisterly demeanor:
"We’ve stocked up so many ingredients in the fridge these days, all kinds of meat. Don’t forget to come help us consume them when your brother-in-law is off."
"Alright, no problem!"
After the meal, Chen Yan and Dou Wenjing went back together.
Liao Jinming and Xie Baomin also drove back to Fishing Platform, while Lin Xu went to the kitchen, using the Eye of Discrimination to meticulously check each dish.
"Send back this Kung Pao Chicken to be redone, the small lychee flavor is made overly sour and sweet, that’s a huge mistake."
"Who did the Beef Stir-Fried with Kai-lan? The stems of the kai-lan weren’t even cut, redo it!"
"The vessel for the Braised Sea Cucumber needs to be heated before serving, redo it!"
"This Garlic Braised Yellow Croaker needs to be cooked with fried garlic, redo it!"
"..."
There were many customers today, so the kitchen was serving dishes pretty quickly, but there were quite a few minor issues.
Lin Xu sent back some dishes with serious problems for redoing and informed the entire kitchen that all dishes sent back for redoing would be deducted half the selling price from their salaries.
In other words, they would have to buy the messed-up dishes at cost price.
If you’re not paying attention,
then your effort will have to be measured by your paycheck.
As long as you’re not afraid of owing Yanjing Hotel money at the end of the month, you can keep being careless.
