Chapter 93 Si Ya's ambition
Sanya took a sip, her eyes sparkling, she looked at Tian Shao and asked, "Sister, this braised pork is so delicious, how do you make it?"
I also ate braised pork at my uncle's house, and it was delicious, but it couldn't be compared with this braised pork.
Tian Shao thought for a while and said: "Premium pork belly, oil, rock sugar, soy sauce, ginger, green onion, star anise, fragrant leaves, cinnamon..."
Sanya was stunned and asked, "Sister, how to make braised pork with sugar? Also, what are these star anise and fragrant leaves?"
"It's all about the seasoning, and it's not the seasoning that makes this braised pork so delicious, it's the chef. The chef's ancestors were imperial cooks, and his son inherited his father's superb cooking skills."
Sanya didn't understand, so she asked and answered: "Sister, what is an imperial chef?"
Tian Shao explained: "This imperial chef is the chef who used to cook for the emperor. Only the top chefs have this qualification."
Sanya understood.
A whimpering cry attracted Tian Shao's attention. Seeing Siya eating meat while crying, she asked dumbfoundedly: "Siya, what's wrong with you? Do you think there is too little meat?"
Si Ya swallowed the meat in her mouth, wiped her tears and said, "No, it's because the meat is so delicious. Big sister, big sister, is this the fairy meat that everyone talks about?"
A few pieces of meat can make her cry with excitement, which is too exaggerated. But taking this opportunity, Tian Shao said: "Siya, there are many more delicious things than this. As long as you study hard and learn the skills, you can eat them in the future,"
In the future, as long as you have money, you can eat whatever you want.
Siya looked at her, her eyes were shining: "Eldest sister, what you said is true? Did you lie to me?"
Tian Shao said cheerfully: "What am I lying to you for? Our country is vast and abundant, and there are eight cuisines. Some are sweet, some are spicy, some are light, and some are mellow. The tastes are different but each has its own taste. feature."
"Sister, how do you know so much?"
Seeing the longing on her face, Tian Shao said with a smile: "I read all these from books, if you want to understand, you should study hard. If you don't read, you won't be able to read all the words."
It is useless for this child to beat and scold, he is only obsessed with eating, so he can only start with eating.
Siya nodded heavily.
Except Wu Ya, everyone finished the braised pork, and Li Guihua and Tian Dalin also finished the meat in the lunch box. It was so delicious that Tian Dalin finished eating the meat before he knew it, forgetting to give some more to the children.
Tian Shao looked at the two pieces of meat in Wuya's bowl, touched her head and asked, "Wuya, it's hot now, if you keep it until tomorrow, the meat will be so rotten that you can't eat it."
Siya said immediately after hearing this, "Five Ah, instead of letting the meat go bad, let us eat it."
Wuya didn't say anything, she put the meat in her mouth and chewed it, shedding tears while eating.
Tian Shao felt that her behavior was very strange, so she squatted down and asked, "Wuya, what's wrong with you?"
Wuya just cried and didn't speak.
Erya struggled to look away from the meat in the bowl, and said, "She must have cried because she couldn't hide the meat. Sister, this meat is so delicious, can you bring it back next time?"
Before Tian Shao could ask again, when Li Guihua came out of the house, you just heard this, and scolded: "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat? Do you know how much these two servings of braised pork cost, your father's ten days' wages?" Not enough."
"I bought it this time for you to try something new. After eating it once a week, you can't live anymore?"
Tian Shao's heart skipped a beat and thought she knew, but when she looked over and saw her calmly, she knew that she was scaring a few younger sisters.
Erya couldn't believe it: "Sister, is it so expensive?"
Erya immediately showed a guilty expression.
After Tian Shao checked, he found that Wuya was the best learner, and Erya was the worst. It was within her expectation that Erya did not study well, after all Erya felt that studying was useless. Even hanging with work didn't make her change her mind.
Er Ya thought about the taste of the braised pork, and her saliva couldn't help but drooling: "Elder sister, give me one more chance, and I will definitely learn to read well."
Tian Shao shook his head and said, "No, you have to abide by the rules you set. This time I'll give you a chance, next time Siya has to follow suit."
Siya is very glad that she persevered.
Tian Shao took out a piece of shortbread from the green cloth bag and handed it to Wu Ya, and said with a smile: "The one who learns the best will be rewarded, and the elder sister keeps her word."
This shortbread was bought by Tian Shao at the grocery store. As for the ticket, it is exchanged for money and glutinous rice balls.
Si Ya became anxious when she saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Elder sister, elder sister, I want to eat too."
"I said that the best performers will be rewarded. In the future, if you study hard, you will be given shortbread if you make great progress."
"Sister, let's make a deal."
"The elder sister keeps her word."
In the evening Tian Shao came to teach Erya and the others how to read. Tian Shao was very strict in class, and Erya and the others didn't dare to be naughty, so the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Li Guihua saw that the sisters hadn't gone to bed for most of the day, so she came over to remind them: "Big girl, they have to go to work tomorrow, if they don't sleep, they won't be refreshed tomorrow."
After washing up, Siya stood at the door and struggled for a long time. Just as he was about to turn around and go back to the house, the door opened.
Wu Ya asked strangely: "Fourth Sister, what are you doing standing at the door? Come in and say something!"
Siya thought about it for a while, but still entered the house.
Seeing her hesitating to speak, Tian Shao knew that she had something to do, but instead of asking, she deliberately said, "Siya, it's almost nine o'clock, go back to sleep."
Siya mustered up her courage and said: "Sister, today's dish is so delicious, I want to learn how to cook in the future."
Wu Ya heard it, and said very bluntly: "Fourth sister, who dares to eat the food you cook! Fourth sister, you'd better give up this unrealistic idea!"
Not to mention how talented she is, but with Siya's dirty appearance, no one would dare to use chopsticks for the food she cooks. Well, those who don't know may eat it, but she absolutely dare not.
The light in Siya's eyes quickly dimmed.
Tian Shao didn't have the confidence to hit Siya, it's a good thing to want to be a cook, but I'm afraid that like Erya, she only wants to marry a good man. Parents can't be relied on forever, let alone a creature like a man: "Why do you want to be a chef all of a sudden?"
Siya didn't hide it, and said: "If I learn how to cook, I will be able to cook all kinds of delicious food in the future."
Tian Shao laughed, but it was to satisfy his appetite: "It's okay if you want to be a cook, but you have to do two things first. The first thing is to pay attention to hygiene in the future and stop being like a mud monkey all day long." , must be clean and tidy; secondly, study hard.”
The first Siya understands, but she doesn't understand the second one: "Elder sister, this cooking can be learned from the master, what does it have to do with studying?"
"Can you understand recipes without reading?"
Siya nodded and said, "Sister, I will pay attention to hygiene and study hard in the future."
Tian Shao said with a smile: "You are still young, don't be in a hurry, study hard first. After two years, you will find out that there are chefs who want to take apprentices, and then I will bring you to try."
With these words, Siya is satisfied.
