Life is a Game

After dinner, Zhang Zhiyun's family revived and prepared to go shopping. Jiang Feng separated from them at the subway station and told them to take a taxi back if they got lost again. As long as it wasn't the evening rush hour, the city of Beiping should not be too congested.

It was already past 8 o'clock when Jiang Feng arrived home, there was no one at home, and Wu Minqi hadn't come back yet. When Jiang Feng was downstairs, Jiang Feng saw that the lights on these floors were all dark except for Uncle Wu's house.

It seems that the business of Taifeng Building is good today, and the eldest aunt has already returned at this time in the past.

Even though there was no one at home, Jiang Feng still slipped into the toilet as usual. Only when you enter the toilet will you feel at ease. Maybe someone will break into the bedroom, but very few people will break into the toilet.

Jiang Feng opened the attribute panel, flipped to the item bar, hesitated between Zhang Chu's memory and Cao Guixiang's memory, and chose Cao Guixiang's.

He can guess the general plot of Zhang Chu's memories, and he can also guess that the dishes must be noodles with fried sauce, which has no sense of mystery or novelty. On the contrary, it is Cao Guixiang's memory, touched by the window frame, which is very mysterious.

After clicking yes on [a memory of Cao Guixiang], Jiang Feng was instantly shrouded in mist.

"Guixiang, has the fish been killed yet? After killing it, cut it into small pieces with an oblique knife and marinate it. This carp is used to make spiced fish at noon today."

"Okay, Master."

When Jiang Feng could see his surroundings clearly, he was in the back kitchen.

It should be the back kitchen of Yonghe Residence, there are quite a few chefs, everyone is busy, everyone is wearing short shirts, it should be summer. Even if everyone is in the preparation stage before the fire is lit in the stove, many people are already sweating profusely.

Cao Guixiang is very easy to recognize, because she is the only girl in the whole kitchen, and the others are old men or young men.

At this time, Cao Guixiang looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, also wearing a short shirt, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and holding a carp in her hand that had been scaled, headed, fins removed, and guts removed.

Jiang Feng originally thought that since Cao Guixiang could make Zhang Chu fall in love at first sight when he was young, he should be quite pretty. But looking at it now, it can only be said that she is average-looking, barely handsome, the kind that Jiang Feng may not be able to find her at a glance when thrown into the crowd.

Only the eyes are very agile, shining like stars.

Cao Guixiang, who is less than 20 years old, is already quite good at swordsmanship.

I saw Cao Guixiang picked up the knife in his hand and cut the fish into two pieces along the spine from the head down, then quickly changed the angle of the knife to cut the fish into small pieces. The fish nuggets appeared on the chopping board.

Then Cao Guixiang put the fish pieces into a small bowl and marinated them with salt, green onion, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce and cooking wine.

"Master, the fish is ready." Cao Guixiang said.

Cao Guixiang's master is a slightly fat middle-aged man with no expression on his face and a big mole on his right cheek, which looks a bit serious and scary.

"Leave it alone, you go to find where your second senior brother is. You haven't seen him since just now." Master Cao Guixiang said.

"Good Master." Cao Guixiang scooped a ladle of water from the bucket in the corner to wash his hands, and went out to find someone.

What Zhang Chu said was correct. The area of ​​the Yonghe Residence at this time was not as large as it was later. There were landscape paintings on the walls, and the tables and chairs could be seen to be made of excellent wood and carvings. It is indeed a well-established and famous restaurant.

"Manager Zhang, may I ask if you saw my second senior brother Qin Guisheng?" Cao Guixiang went to Manager Zhang who was at the counter to settle the accounts.

Manager Zhang is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He is very formally dressed, even wearing long-sleeved trousers on a hot day. He looks very polite.

"Qin Guisheng? He seems to be on the second floor. I just saw him go up. By the way, Guixiang, remember to remind your master that our store responds to the call of the street office. Tomorrow, we will deliver herbal tea to the elderly over 70 years old in the alley. Let him forget Already." Manager Zhang said.

Manager Zhang is the manager of the public office, and he goes to the meetings of the sub-district office on weekdays.

"Okay, Manager Zhang, don't worry." Cao Guixiang said before going upstairs.

"Wait a minute, don't leave, I have something to tell you." Manager Zhang stopped Cao Guixiang, let her come to him and whispered: "Didn't I go to the street to hold a meeting yesterday? Aunt Zheng and I said you can become a regular by next month at the latest."

"Really?" Cao Guixiang was surprised.

"Then it can still be false. When did you miss the news from Mrs. Zheng? Besides, I have nothing to do to lie to you. Don't be lazy. Even if you become a regular worker, you have to work harder." Manager Zhang said, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, "You This will soon become the youngest regular worker in our Yonghe Residence, so you must pay attention when working."

"Don't worry, when have I ever been lazy. When I become a regular, I'll treat you to dinner, and I'll make it for you, your favorite steamed chicken with straw mushrooms!" Cao Guixiang ran upstairs to find Qin Guisheng with a full face of joy. up.

Manager Zhang stood there with a helpless smile and murmured, "Steaming chicken with straw mushrooms will cost you half a month's salary."

At this time, it should not be time for dinner, there is not a single guest in Yonghe Juli, only Qin Guisheng is sitting on the second floor, sitting by the window and blowing the wind.

The decoration on the 2nd floor is much better than that of the 1st floor. There are more decorations, and there are many more ornaments than the 1st floor. There are screens between the tables, and even the teapots on the tables are better than those on the 1st floor. looks more refined.

"Second Senior Brother, you are lazy here again. Master is looking for you. Let me call you." Cao Guixiang shouted at Qin Guisheng.

"How can I say I'm lazy? Master told me to kill chickens. After I finished killing chickens, I just came up to enjoy the cool air. It's so hot, there must be no business at noon today." Qin Guisheng sat on the chair lazily.

"Why is there no business? You killed the chicken, and I killed the fish. The senior brother is processing the duck. I see that the master has prepared ham. He must be making sunflower duck. He told me that he is going to make spiced fish. Today is noon There must be a banquet." Cao Guixiang said.

"There is still a banquet at noon today? Master is still going to make sunflower duck?" Qin Guisheng stood up abruptly, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I'm going to help Master."

Cao Guixiang smiled lightly: "It's nice to say, I think you just want to learn from sunflower ducks, senior brother is still handling ducks, it's still early before dinner, master won't do it now."

Hearing what Cao Guixiang said, Qin Guisheng was not in a hurry to go down, he just slacked off on it, and went back to the window to enjoy the air.

Cao Guixiang stared out the window, stepping on her feet in a daze.

"Junior Sister, what are you looking at from the window on the second floor every day? I think you have been looking out of this window for half a month, right?" Qin Guisheng asked.

"I'm looking to see if Mr. Che comes out to comment on storytelling." Cao Guixiang said.

"Mr. Che tells old-fashioned stories every day, whether it is the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. We have been listening to Yue Fei occasionally for how many years. Are you still not tired of listening?" The kids love being around there."

Cao Guixiang gave him a blank look: "When are you old Huangli, now you are talking about the generals of the Yang family."

"General Yang, you should have heard about it a long time ago."

"My pleasure!"

"All right, all right, you are willing. Manager Zhang said that tomorrow we are going to deliver herbal tea to the elderly over 70 years old in the alley. I think you should make one for Mr. Che too. You are listening to so many storytelling stories from him for nothing." Qin Guisheng said, "Besides, if you want to listen to storytelling, you can listen to it at the door on the first floor. Manager Zhang won't say anything about you. Can you hear me when you come to the second floor?"

"My ears are good. I can hear clearly. The scenery on the second floor is so beautiful. What's the point of listening on the first floor." Cao Guixiang said, pulling Qin Guisheng to go downstairs.

"Don't rest, Master is looking for you, later he will scold me too!"

"Okay, okay, lighten up, you're grabbing my flesh, let go, let go, I'll go down with you."
