Chapter 139 Adopt a Kitten
Su Panpan peeled and cut the potatoes into pieces, then put the potatoes into the pot and cooked them together with the beef brisket.
Slowly, the beef brisket and potatoes in the pot exude a rich aroma.
"It smells so good." Before reaching the yard, a chef had already smelled the fragrance of the food and instantly felt hungry, his stomach growling.
Other chefs are also looking forward to the upcoming delicacy.
When Erniu came back, he fetched warm water from the kitchen for the masters to wash their hands.
The chefs came into the house one after another, and Su Panpan greeted them warmly, "Chefs, come and wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
The masters nodded in response.
Shen Ru smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone, please take a seat."
Today’s stews are all very generous in portion and are served in large bowls. One bowl is equivalent to three or four bowls of vegetables, so you only need to stir-fry some vegetables.
Su Panpan stir-fried Chinese spinach and some lean meat and shredded carrots.
Everyone sat together and started to enjoy lunch.
The large bowl of braised pork was bright red and slightly oily. The plate full of sausages exuded an enticing aroma, and the slices were cut into even thicknesses.
A large pot of beef brisket and potatoes and a large pot of cured pork trotters and stewed radish were steaming hot, and the rich aroma filled the whole house.
A plate of fresh and green Chinese chrysanthemum.
A plate of lean meat and carrot shreds is brightly colored. The orange-red carrot shreds and the pink lean meat complement each other, which greatly increases your appetite.
The chefs looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table with surprise in their eyes.
A chef praised: "Wow, this dish is so beautiful, it makes me hungry just by looking at it."
"That's right, the taste must be right." Another chef responded with a smile.
Su Panpan greeted everyone enthusiastically: "Masters, please try it quickly. You are welcome."
The chefs nodded, picked up their chopsticks and started tasting.
"Wow, what a taste." A burly, dark-skinned young chef squinted his eyes slightly, picked up a piece of sausage, and said intoxicatedly after chewing it.
Another older chef carefully picked up a piece of braised pork and looked at it carefully for a while. The color and texture of the braised pork made him nod continuously.
"This braised pork is fat but not greasy, and melts in your mouth. It's so delicious." As he spoke, he couldn't wait to put the meat into his mouth, with a satisfied expression on his face.
His hands were covered with calluses, the marks left by time and labor.
Several other chefs were attracted by the pot of beef brisket and potatoes.
A chef picked up a piece of beef brisket, which was red in color and had clear texture.
He took a gentle bite, and instantly, the rich aroma of meat spread in his mouth. The beef brisket was stewed to an extremely tender and tender state, yet still chewy, and every fiber was full of mellow flavor.
"This beef brisket is absolutely amazing!" the chef couldn't help but exclaim, "It has a rich texture and a rich flavor. Every bite is intoxicating."
Another chef also picked up a piece of beef brisket and savored it carefully.
"This beef brisket is cooked just right. It's not greasy, yet retains the original flavor of the beef." He nodded in praise as he chewed. "The potatoes are also stewed very well. The combination with the beef brisket is perfect!"
While eating, everyone talked about their work in the morning and interesting things in their lives.
One worker spoke of a thrilling moment when he was demolishing the main wall that morning, his voice trembling slightly: "The brick almost hit me, but luckily I dodged quickly."
The masters nearby nodded, recalling the tension of that moment with lingering fear.
Another thin master smiled and talked about interesting things in his family, which made everyone laugh.
Shen Ru added dishes to the chefs from time to time.
She picked up a spoon and gently served each chef some cured pig's trotters stewed with radish and beef brisket stewed with potatoes: "Chef, eat more, these pig's trotters and beef brisket are stewed until tender."
Erniu was busy pouring hawthorn wine brewed by Su Panpan into the master's empty cup.
The masters expressed their gratitude one after another, and the atmosphere in the room became more warm and harmonious.
Su Panpan was filled with joy as she watched everyone enjoying their meal.
She noticed that one of the masters' bowls was empty, so she quickly picked up the bowl and filled it with rice for him, saying with a smile, "Master, eat more so you can have more energy to work in the afternoon."
"This dish is really authentic. I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time." The chef took the rice and looked at Su Panpan with gratitude.
"That's right, it tastes better than those in restaurants." Another chef nodded in agreement.
After lunch, the masters took a short break and then began to discuss the afternoon work arrangements.
They decided to first clear the rubble after the main wall collapsed and then continue to demolish other parts of the wall.
Su Panpan and Shen Ru cleaned up the dishes and prepared some tea and snacks for the chefs in the afternoon.
The demolition work in the afternoon was carried out in a tense and orderly manner.
The workers were very motivated and cleared the rubble very quickly.
Su Panpan and Shen Ru brought tea and snacks to the masters from time to time, so that they could quench their thirst and replenish their energy after their busy schedule.
Slowly, the sun sets in the west.
As the day was coming to an end, the masters looked at the cleaned construction site and most of the houses demolished, and their hearts were filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Su Panpan and Shen Ru also smiled and said, "Masters, you have worked hard. Go back and rest early today."
After the masters left, Su Panpan, Shen Ru and Erniu went to the market to buy some vegetables and returned to their rented house.
Su Panpan sat down on the chair and breathed a long sigh of relief: "I am really exhausted today, but the masters did a great job."
Shen Ru smiled and nodded, and while tidying up the yard, she said, "Yes, the progress is faster than we expected. It will probably be almost done tomorrow."
"It should be finished tomorrow. It just needs to take off some small corners." Erniu was arranging the vegetables he bought in the kitchen.
"Erniu, go get the remaining snacks from today so we can have some too," said Su Panpan.
Erniu hurried to the kitchen and soon brought out several plates of snacks.
The three of them sat together, ate snacks, and began to discuss their next plan.
"Panpan, the house is almost demolished. What are you going to do next?" Shen Ru asked curiously.
Su Panpan held her chin and thought: "I think we can find a craftsman to design it, so that it can be built more beautifully."
Erniu said excitedly: "I think it's okay. This way we can avoid taking detours."
While we were discussing, we suddenly heard a strange sound.
The three of them looked at each other, then walked cautiously towards the direction of the sound.
It turned out that a little kitten had run in from somewhere and was playing in the corner.
Su Panpan squatted down in surprise and gently stroked the kitten: "Wow, what a cute kitten."
Shen Ru and Erniu also came over. The kitten was not afraid at all and rubbed against their feet.
