Chapter 37 Su Ji at 4 AM

37 Su Ji at four o'clock in the morning

"Want to eat?" Mu Feng shook the braised chicken leg in front of the little boy.

The little boy nodded heavily, his eyes drifting back and forth with the chicken legs.

Just as Mu Feng was handing out the chicken legs, the little boy's mother suddenly said, "Please wait a moment."

Mu Feng paused, and looked at the little boy's mother suspiciously.

"Please give me the chicken legs, thank you." The little boy's mother said with a smile.

Mu Feng nodded and handed her the chicken leg.

"Want to eat?" the little boy's mother looked at the little boy and said.

"Yes!" The little boy nodded.

"Well, you have been crying for so long just now, you go and apologize to your uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, after the apology, I will feed you again!" said the little boy's mother.

After the little boy heard his mother's words, his eyes were straightened, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

The little boy's mother lowered him from her arms to the ground.

The little boy was stunned immediately, staring blankly at his mother, holding his mother's trouser legs tightly with both hands.

"Hurry up, apologize one by one, and you can eat after apologizing." The little boy's mother shook the chicken leg in her hand.

At this time, the little boy's mouth shrunk, and his eyes instantly turned red.

Seeing that the cries were about to sound again, the little boy's mother squatted down and looked at the little boy with a very serious expression.

The little boy thought that his mother was soft-hearted after all, and planned to give him the chicken legs.

However, after a while, the little boy felt something was wrong.

His mother's expression was too serious and serious, he stared blankly at his mother, tears rolled in his eyes, and he was about to cry in the next second.

"You can continue to cry, but I will never give you chicken legs, because you did something wrong and you disturbed other people. So, unless you apologize to everyone present, I will never give you chicken legs! said the little boy's mother.

After finishing speaking, she looked at the little boy quietly.

The little boy has obviously never seen him. With his mother like this, the expression on his face is very complicated. He wants to cry, but it seems that crying is useless, so his eyes are red and tears are pooling in his sockets. will not fall.

However, he felt wronged again, he kept pulling his clothes with both hands, lowered his head, and didn't know what he was thinking.

The little boy is struggling, and so is his mother.

The little boy's mother was worried that he could not teach the child well, but also didn't want to see the child continue to cry so heart-piercingly.At this time, she was actually very at a loss. All along, the couple was too busy with work, so they didn't spend too much time educating their children. They always felt that it was right to meet their needs.

However, just this evening, the child's marathon crying made her suddenly realize that her way of educating the child seemed not right.

Her husband is on a business trip for the first time, and he used to work locally. This time, he was sent out because of work needs after he was promoted.Therefore, she had never encountered a child crying so much before.

Or, to be more precise, in the past, the husband and wife were both together, and it was relatively worry-free for the two of them to coax the children together, so she neglected to educate the children correctly.

In fact, if it weren't for this incident, she probably wouldn't be aware of the child's personality problems.

The child's crying tonight made her wonder, if the child thinks that he can get what he wants by crying, what will he do when he grows up?

So, for the first time, she really made up her mind to educate her children well.

The little boy was struggling, while his mother looked at him solemnly.

The people present were also watching this scene quietly.

"You quarreled with others, and you did something wrong. So, you must apologize, to your uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, one by one!" The little boy's mother said again earnestly.

The little boy's tears still flowed down after all, but this time he didn't cry like before, but kept sobbing.

The little boy's mother still had a serious expression on her face. She was waiting and enduring. She knew that if she couldn't persist this time, the child would only be harder to teach in the future!

Finally, after two or three minutes, the little boy seemed to have figured out something, and actually started to apologize to other people.

However, the little boy was still crying while apologizing, obviously he didn't quite understand why his always gentle mother would be so cruel.However, he understood one thing in his heart, he would no longer be able to use crying to get what he liked.

After apologizing to a dozen people, the little boy looked back at his mother to see if it was time to eat chicken legs.

As a result, his mother still signaled him to continue apologizing with a very serious expression.

He was confused, he was wronged, he was desperate, and then, gradually, he became relieved and stopped crying.

Of course, it may also be because there are too many people queuing up outside the Suji store, and it took too long to apologize one by one, until he realized that crying is useless, so he naturally stopped crying up.

The little boy's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing the child's performance.

At least, the first step has been taken, and I will spend more time on my children in the future!

After this episode, Su Ji resumed the lively scene again.

Originally, Mu Feng thought that this was just a small episode, but unexpectedly, because of this child, another story would be drawn.

The bustling Su Ji didn't gradually quiet down until around one o'clock in the morning.

After Mu Feng cleaned up the stove, he came to the dishwashing room, saw Zhong Yaqi washing the dishes, and joked, "Tell me, if my aunt sees that you can wash the dishes, I don't know how she will react?"

"She will definitely doubt her eyes, and then rush up to see if I have a fever." Zhong Yaqi laughed.

"Well, it's very possible!" Mu Feng smiled, and walked over to help put the washed dishes into the basket, "How, are you tired tonight?"

"It's okay." Zhong Yaqi shook her head and said with a smile. After a pause, she looked at Mu Feng very seriously and said, "Brother, I want to learn how to cook from you!"

"Didn't you say it this afternoon?" Mu Feng said with a smile.

"I'm not talking about Haoyuan, I'm talking about me! I want to learn cooking from you!" Zhong Yaqi said seriously.

Mu Feng was taken aback after hearing this, and looked at her with some doubts: "Why do you suddenly want to learn how to cook?"

"I sold kitchen utensils last time, and this time I sold shrimps. I relied on you to save the day. You said, I can't ask you for help every time, right?" Zhong Yaqi said.

"It's okay, you helped me a lot when I was young, do you remember? I skipped class once to go online, and you tipped me off so I wasn't caught by my dad." Mu Feng said with a smile.

"You're really weird. Even though you skipped class, your grades are still so good." Zhong Yaqi pursed her lips.

"Brother, I'm actually quite flustered. I'm graduating next year, and I don't know what to do. Like the last two part-time jobs, I relied on your help. In fact, I've been confused and don't know what to do.

However, these two experiences have made me discover that the power of food is really powerful, so I think it is best to learn how to cook from you. At least for now, this is the clearest way I can see. "

Zhong Yaqi expressed her thoughts to Mu Feng with a very solemn expression.

"Learning to cook is very hard, can you persevere? Moreover, if you learn to cook now, it may take a long time to graduate." Mu Feng said.

"Actually, I've already thought about it. The takeaway industry is developing so well now. I plan to do takeaway with Haoyuan and the others. We will specialize in some simple and delicious dishes. This kind of targeted learning should speed up the learning speed." Zhong Yaqi said.

"This is a good direction." Mu Feng nodded, and then joked with a smile, "I thought you were planning to continue relying on me to help you with a part-time job~"

After saying this, Mu Feng's mind suddenly shook. He suddenly thought that he has been relying on the system to cook food recently, which is actually the same as his sister's part-time job with his help.

In a trance, he suddenly realized that since he had this system, it seemed that he hadn't really cooked with his heart for a long time, to experience every detail of cooking with his heart, and to feel the joy of cooking with his heart.

That night, when he got home and lay in bed, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a long time.

At four o'clock in the morning, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Under the annoyance and anger, he simply got up from the bed and went back to Suji by himself.

After arriving at Suji, he looked through the freezer to see what ingredients could be used for cooking.

In the past, when he was in a bad mood, he would choose to cook, and the cooking process could clear his mind.

Su Ji's business is very hot every day, so there are very few ingredients left, and most of them are fragmentary, which cannot be cooked.

After digging through the freezer for a while, he only found a piece of pork, a handful of rapeseed, and some other ingredients such as onion, ginger, and garlic.

Looking at the ingredients in front of him, he pondered for a moment and decided to make a [Sunflower Cut Meat].

He first cleaned the auxiliary ingredients such as ginger, onion, and water chestnuts, and then peeled and chopped them.

Immediately afterwards, he cut the pork into thin strips, and then chopped it into pork stuffing.

This time, he no longer does it just by feeling like before, but really puts his heart into it and feels the changes in the ingredients with his heart.

After chopping the pork stuffing, he added onion and ginger, water chestnuts, eggs, light soy sauce, salt, cooking wine, pepper powder, sugar and starch to it, mixing all the ingredients together.

He carefully, conscientiously and vigorously grasped the pork filling and ingredients evenly with his hands, and then rolled out fist-sized meatballs one after another with his hands.

Immediately afterwards, he fried the meatballs in an oil pan until golden, then added water to the pan to cover the meatballs, and then added cooking wine, rock sugar, light soy sauce, salt, and dark soy sauce.

After the water boils, turn to low heat, skim off the foam, cover and simmer for 3 hours.

During this process, his irritable mood gradually calmed down, and he once again enjoyed the cooking process.

In fact, since he got the system, every time he cooks, he always has a feeling of lightness, and sometimes there is even a feeling that he doesn't know how to cook, but the system is controlling him to cook.

And he is like a robot, who can cook delicious food without thinking.

That feeling is very unreal, very illusory, and he occasionally panics, but this feeling is all covered up and diluted by the system's huge rewards.

He used to read news on the Internet about how those who accidentally hit the jackpot were caught in that illusory ecstasy, and they kept squandering their lives so that they lost their direction in life.

Every time he sees these news, he always scoffs. He always feels that if he wins the big prize, it will definitely not be like this.

Due to his nature, he doesn't value money that much, so when his family became a multi-millionaire due to demolition, he did maintain his rare sense and indifference.

However, everyone's hobbies are different, and everyone's weaknesses are also different. He has managed to be calm in front of money.

However, when the system came into play, when he met what he really wanted, he got lost.

----

Mu Feng looked at the meatballs in the pot that were constantly tumbling with the soup, and his heart beat along with the rhythm.He finally found that real feeling, that simple and pure joy, and the original restless emotions were swept away.

In the quiet Su Ji, only the pot of steaming and fragrant meatballs on the stove was making a constant gurgling sound, everything seemed so peaceful and beautiful.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the meatballs were already cooked.

Mu Feng put the washed rapeseed into the pot, cooked it for a while, and then thickened it with starch.

After stir-frying for a while, this [Sunflower Chopped Pork] is done.

【Sunflower Cut Meat】In fact, it is today's Yangzhou lion head, which is a traditional Han dish in Yangzhou, Jiangsu.

After finishing this [Sunflower Cut Meat], Mu Feng took a deep breath and felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

From then on, every morning at four o'clock in the morning, Mu Feng would appear in Su Ji on time, rain or shine.

In the early hours of the morning, when everything is still, he is happily immersed in the world of cooking.

----

Because the diners praised the lo-mei last night, Mu Feng decided to make the lo-mei a daily regular dish.

After all the ingredients were delivered, Mu Feng started to make the lo mei.

Zhong Yaqi and Lu Haoyuan said yesterday that they wanted to learn how to cook, so as soon as they arrived at nine o'clock in the morning, they showed up on time and came to Suji.

What the two of them wanted to learn was simple dishes, so Mu Feng specially chose a dish [stir-fried shredded pork with green pepper].

This [Green Pepper Stir-Fried Shredded Pork] because of the flavor of green pepper, so it only needs a little exercise to cook a delicious delicacy.

The two of them have practiced for almost three days, and they have basically mastered the cooking technique of this dish.For this dish alone, the cooking skills of the two have reached the intermediate level.

Of course, a large part of the reason for this is because of the natural flavor-enhancing artifact of green peppers.

It's still summer vacation, so the two of them come to Su Ji every day at nine o'clock, learning how to cook when they are free, and helping entertain guests when they are busy.

At first it was just the two of them, but later even Zhuang Xiaoxue and Du Mingyu came to learn how to cook together.

The four of them didn't find it hard because they were companions, and Mu Feng specially selected some simple dishes to teach them.

The simple dishes are combined with targeted exercises, so the results are very fast. They also learn more and more vigorously. Later, they automatically advance the time of cooking to [-]:[-] in the morning. By the time the school starts, the four of them can already cook more than a dozen dishes The dishes are delicious, and each dish has reached the level of a senior chef.

Of course, that's another story.

After Su Ji made lo mei a regular daily dish, even if it is not a meal, customers still come to buy it from time to time.

On this day, around four o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Feng was teaching Zhong Yaqi and the others to cook in the store, when suddenly a primary school student came to the store.
