Chapter 114: Showing off your cooking skills
The car arrived at the destination and stopped.
The director told Deng Ziqi and Chen Yimin that as long as they walked forward along this road, the largest house they saw would be the Mushroom House.
After getting off the car, the two people dragged their luggage towards the Mushroom House.
Deng Ziqi was very happy along the way. She was finally able to go out with Chen Yimin and relax outdoors.
She cherishes this opportunity very much.
The two of them walked to the bottom of the Mushroom House, and the resident guests in the Mushroom House had already noticed them.
Teacher He brought a few young stars out of the house to help them with their luggage.
"I didn't expect you to come so soon. These are our very famous young actors, and some of them graduated from Communication University of China." Teacher He said, pointing to a few young guys around him.
Chen Yimin looked at them and nodded.
And those young stars also said to Chen Yimin, Hello, teacher.
After a brief self-introduction, the group returned to the mushroom house.
Teacher Huang, who was famous for his cooking skills, was waiting for them in the Mushroom House.
Some drinks were also prepared for them.
After expressing their thanks to Chen Yimin repeatedly, Deng Ziqi took the drink and drank it comfortably.
"Today is your first day here and you are not familiar with the place yet, so take a rest first. After lunch, we will go to the fields to work together in the afternoon, and then you can take the opportunity to visit the place." Teacher Huang said, looking at the two of them.
Chen Yimin felt a little embarrassed while drinking his drink and listening to Teacher Huang's concern.
I have received a lot of care since I came here, and I should do something to repay them.
"Teacher He, Teacher Huang, let me prepare lunch today. Deng Ziqi and I will let you taste our cooking skills." Chen Yimin said.
Deng Ziqi on the side also nodded, she understood what Chen Yimin meant.
Teacher He and Teacher Huang were a little hesitant when they heard what Chen Yimin said.
It’s not that I’m worried about my poor cooking skills, but I’m mainly afraid that two people might get hurt while cooking.
After repeated instructions, the two decided to let Chen Yimin and Deng Ziqi cook lunch today.
Since they had decided to cook lunch today, Chen Yimin and Deng Ziqi hurried to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients and draw up a menu.
Because it was almost 10:00 when the two of them arrived.
If they want to start eating on time at 12:00, the two of them have to be quick.
After all, there are about 10 people in the room.
After Chen Yimin decided what to cook, he gave the ingredients to Deng Ziqi, who cleaned and processed them.
Chen Yimin is mainly responsible for cooking.
With the cooperation of the two people, soon one dish after another with good appearance and rich flavor was served to the table.
Then Chen Yimin asked Deng Ziqi to call everyone to eat.
After everyone gathered, Chen Yimin served the last dish, which was also the one he had prepared most carefully, twice-cooked pork.
As soon as the dishes were served, all the stars applauded.
Just looking at the appearance is enough to whet your appetite.
As the oldest person at the table, Teacher He picked up the chopsticks first and tasted the twice-cooked pork.
Chen Yimin looked at Mr. He from the side, wanting to see what the evaluation of his dishes was.
I only saw Teacher He show a happy expression on his face after he took a bite.
Then he said to everyone, "It's really, really delicious. Everyone hurry up and try it. I can't describe how delicious it is in words."
Hearing that the usually eloquent Teacher He couldn't even describe how delicious the dish was, everyone picked up the twice-cooked pork and put it in their mouths out of curiosity.
For a moment, everyone at the table showed an expression of enjoyment on their face.
First of all, Mr. Huang commented, "I didn't expect that the dishes cooked by the young Chen Yimin could compete with those cooked by an old man like me. Apart from other things, the aroma of meat and sauce filled my mouth after I ate it. It really made me want to eat more. It's really good."
After hearing Mr. Huang’s comments, Chen Yimin’s smile grew wider.
Those young stars also nodded.
One of the male stars couldn't put his chopsticks down and kept putting a few pieces into his mouth.
While eating, he showed an expression of great enjoyment on his face .
Teacher Huang and Teacher He looked at him and smiled.
"Look at what our silly son has become of his meal. He didn't enjoy it this much the last time he ate the meal I cooked."
Hearing what the two said, everyone at the table laughed.
The atmosphere was filled with joy for a while.
The Chinese were only concerned with enjoying the food and spoke very little.
Chen Yimin felt a sense of accomplishment as he looked at everyone eating with such satisfaction on their faces.
He developed these cooking skills by staying alone at home for a long time. Sometimes he feels hungry but it is not convenient to order takeout or go out to eat, so he has to cook for himself.
Practice makes perfect. The more you cook, the better your cooking skills will be.
He didn't expect that he could show his cooking skills on "Longing for Life" today, and he felt very happy.
Soon everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks after finishing their meal.
Teacher He and Teacher Huang called out to each other, and everyone chatted together and digested their food at the same time.
"Today we would like to thank Chen Yimin for preparing the meal for us. I am a little envious of Deng Ziqi now. It is such a blessing to be able to eat such delicious meals cooked by Chen Yimin every day." Teacher He said to everyone.
Hearing his words, everyone applauded.
Deng Ziqi on the side lowered her head shyly.
No wonder she said she felt she had gained a few pounds recently. It would be strange if she didn’t gain weight since she ate at Chen Yimin’s house every day.
Then Mr. Huang said to everyone, " Because we have an agreement with the program team that we have to sell the agricultural products we collect to the program team for money, and then we can buy ingredients, so this afternoon, please go to the fields to pick some corn. It will probably take about 50 kilograms."
Chen Yimin has also watched it. In previous programs, Teacher Huang usually stayed at home to help everyone cook, while other people in the Mushroom House would be sent to various places to experience the working life in the countryside.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Then everyone went to the room to rest.
Wait until around three or four in the afternoon when the sun is a little smaller and then go pick corn.
After dinner, Chen Yimin took Deng Ziqi away and whispered to her.
"When I was cooking lunch today, I also noticed that the Mushroom House was missing a lot of ingredients, such as some peppers and seasonings. I prepared some specialties in advance. I will give some of these to you later and then send them to Teacher He and the others."
Deng Ziqi nodded.
It is true that I have received a lot of care from everyone when I came to the Mushroom House, so it is only natural that I should give them some food as a return gift.
"I have brought some small gifts to give to everyone. Let's give them away together when the time comes." Deng Ziqi said.
Hearing her words, Chen Yimin nodded.
