Life is a Game

Episode 2: Xia Xia Chapter (1)

Xu Cheng's article was like dropping a bomb that was about to explode on a calm lake, causing a storm in an instant. For a while, the entire culinary circle was discussing Xu Cheng's behavior. Of course, everyone's discussion was in a good direction, and they were even full of expectations.

Decades ago, Xu Cheng's search and exploration of this vast world of cuisines gave chefs from all over the world a chance to become famous. Whether it's state banquet fine dishes or street snacks of a few cents, as long as they can be listed on "Zhiwei", they will be well known by food lovers from all over the world. There are fans of Xu Chen who are willing to travel thousands of miles, travel across mountains and rivers, or Go by train or car first just to taste the delicacy on "Zhiwei".

Over the past few decades, the first batch of chefs who appeared on "Zhiwei" are basically old, many of them have retired, and a lot of fresh blood has emerged in the culinary circle. In recent years, many young chefs with no background regret that they were born in the wrong era. If they were born decades earlier, Xu Cheng realizes that the future will be very different.

Now their chance has come.

Xu Cheng has become what Xu Cheng used to be. Whether they can seize the opportunity to become famous like those predecessors decades ago is their business.

But none of this had anything to do with Jiang Feng.

He is setting up the scene of the annual meeting.

Red banners, red ribbons, various red decorations. Those who knew it was setting up the venue for the annual meeting, but those who didn't know thought it was setting up the scene for a wedding.

As for the "Zhiwei" that Jiang Feng brought to Taifeng Building is now in Wang Xiulian's hands. Seeing Comrade Wang Xiulian's attitude towards reading, Jiang Feng feels that this article will most likely appear on the graves of the Wang family's ancestors this year.

"Fengfeng, we've bought all the fruits. Let's see if this fruit plate is packed together by the two of us or by Xia Xia and me?" Wu Minqi, Ji Xia, Ji Xue and Ji Yue also got up early in the morning, everyone Each has a division of labor.

"You and Xia Xia go to decorate, I have to hang a lot of red lanterns here." Jiang Feng looked helplessly at the red lantern in his hand, very suspicious that the lantern was left over from the decoration of Taifeng Building during the Chinese New Year last year.

"Okay, then Xia Xia and I will go make a fruit plate. Let's go, Xia Xia, let's go make a fruit plate. Eat your favorite first and don't leave it to them." Wu Minqi laughed.

In the past, if Wu Minqi said such things to Xia Xia, even if Xia Xia knew it was a joke, she would still happily nod vigorously, and then follow Wu Minqi with a happy face like a little tail carrying fruit.

But now Xia Xia didn't seem very happy, she just nodded lightly, and followed Wu Minqi as if accepting the homework assigned by the teacher.

Xia Xia was a little unhappy, to be precise, she was not very happy during this time.

Jiang Feng found out that something was wrong with his mood two or three days after the finals. At first he thought it was because Grandma Ji returned to Guangdong Province, and Xia Xia was not in a good mood because she was separated from her mother-in-law.

But now it seems that it is obviously not because of this.

Jiang Feng asked Ji Xue yesterday, and the two of them bought a train back to Guangdong Province this afternoon, and they expected to be home tomorrow morning. Logically speaking, if Xia Xia misses her mother-in-law, she should be very happy to be able to go home today.

Jiang Feng looked at Xia Xia's back, and felt that it was because the child became more complicated when he grew up, and he started to have something on his mind and stopped talking to his master and sister. Jiang Feng found that compared to the Xia Xia who had things hidden in his heart now, he still liked the original Xia Xia who was heartless, happy and silly, and wrote his pain on his face when he was unhappy.

"Master!"

Just when Jiang Feng hung up all the lanterns and was about to find a place to fish and be lazy. His No. 2 apprentice, although the teacher apprenticeship banquet had not yet been held, Zhang Qian, who had changed her tune, ran in from the door carrying a large bag of candy.

Zhang Qian's final exams had ended long ago, and her classmates in their dormitory also went home to celebrate the New Year one after another. She was the only one who was still stuck in the dormitory and went to work in Taifeng Building every day to wait for the annual meeting. On the day of the competition, Zhang Qian couldn't go because of the exam, but according to her, she watched the live broadcast immediately after the exam, and even sent a barrage when Jiang Feng won the championship.

"Master, do you know what I saw when I passed by the newsstand today?" Zhang Qian pulled out a brand new copy of "Zhiwei" from the candy bag with an excited face, "You are on "Zhiwei" again!"

"I've already seen it." Jiang Feng said with a smile.

"Ah." Zhang Qian thought she had brought a surprise to Jiang Feng, but Jiang Feng had already finished reading it.

"By the way, have you discussed with your parents about your apprenticeship?" Because the store was too busy before, Jiang Feng had no time to mention this with Zhang Qian. Now that the annual meeting is coming, and the long vacation is coming soon, he has plenty of time To deal with things that have not been dealt with before.

"Not yet, but I let my parents watch the live broadcast of your final." Zhang Qian looked happy and shook the "Zhiwei" in her hand, "plus this "Zhiwei", my parents will definitely agree !"

"My dad told me after watching your live broadcast before, if anyone is lucky enough to worship you as a teacher in the future, it will definitely be smoke from the ancestral grave."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jiang Feng couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.

After getting along for a period of time, he also discovered that Zhang Qian may be because she just went to college for the first time to really contact the outside world. She is a little free and has a very detached personality. As long as she is familiar with her, she dares to say anything.

"Then I will help." Zhang Qian is very conscious, very aware of the obligation that employees of Taifeng Building should have to work for capitalists.

"Go to the kitchen and help Qiqi and Xia Xia divide the fruit plate. I think they bought a lot of fruit, and it will take some time to process it." Jiang Feng said, seeing Zhang Qian turned around and going to the kitchen, he stopped her immediately, " Wait, have you noticed something is wrong with Xia Xia recently?"

"Not quite right?" Zhang Qian thought for a while, "Master, do you mean Senior Sister, she seems a little afraid of me?"

Jiang Feng:?

Xia Xia is afraid of Zhang Qian? ? ?

Jiang Feng looked Zhang Qian from head to toe, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't feel that Zhang Qian, who was not very strong and even needed to practice basic skills, seemed to be able to defeat the former bad girl Xia Xia.

"She's afraid of you?" Jiang Feng looked surprised.

Zhang Qian nodded: "I don't know if that counts as fear, but I always feel that Senior Sister seems to be avoiding me."

"How to say?"

"Master, didn't you tell me that my senior sister's basic skills in knife skills, fire, seasoning and seasoning are not very solid. Do you have time to tell me? I can't find a chance to tell me. Every time the senior sister cuts vegetables and kneads noodles, she feels like she is hiding on purpose. Me, they are very far away from me, and they sit far away from me when eating."

"I can feel that she doesn't hate me, but she is avoiding me." Zhang Qian was also a little distressed, "Does the senior sister think that I am younger than her, so I feel embarrassed."

Now Jiang Feng was really surprised. He had always thought that Xia Xia liked Zhang Qian very much. At the beginning, when he was hesitating whether to accept Zhang Qian as his apprentice, Xia Xia's performance was very proactive and even excited.

He really didn't notice what Zhang Qian said before.

"Maybe it's because I'm not used to it. It's okay. I'll have a Chinese New Year holiday right away. I'll have a look when I come back from the holiday. Sometimes Xia Xia's personality is a bit awkward, so it's good to spend more time getting used to it. Since she's avoiding you now Then don't share the fruit plate, go help spread the tablecloth, and there will be a lottery on the big table later."

"Okay." Zhang Qian nodded.

What Jiang Feng didn't know was that it would take many years for his first apprentice and second apprentice to have a chance to get along.

Because Xia Xia didn't return to Taifeng Building after many years.
