The first week after the start of work during the Spring Festival was particularly busy. As a new employee, Xu Jianling was even busier. He worked overtime until at least eight o'clock every night before returning to the apartment.
It wasn¡¯t until Saturday morning that he and Olga had time to sit down and have breakfast together.
Entering Ou Jia's living room, he was a little surprised when he saw the breakfast on the table: "Are these breakfasts freshly made? Are there takeaways so early?"
?? Fried eggs, stir-fried sauerkraut, millet porridge, steamed dumplings, and soy milk are all still steaming, and they look like they have just come out of the pot.
"No, I made this myself." Ou Jia came out from the kitchen with a small pot of noodles. "Look, this is the tomato beef noodles I cooked by myself. Try it and see how it tastes."
"Did you make it yourself?" Xu Jianling was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped. "Your hands are those of a top student. They are used for typing on the keyboard, signing contracts, shaking hands and settling accounts. At most, you can add a makeup function. How? Did you suddenly use it to make breakfast?"
"Because Yucui's cooking is delicious." Ou Jia smiled, "Don't you know, Yucui goes to the restaurant to open a small stove at noon almost every day and cooks lunch for Oucheng by herself. I think the food in the restaurant is quite good. Food, but Ou Cheng also asked Yu Cui to take the trouble to cook for him, which shows that Yu Cui¡¯s skills are good and I don¡¯t want to lose to her.¡±
"Understood." Xu Jianling showed a clear expression and picked up the chopsticks, "I will try it now."
He picked up the fried egg and took a bite, frowned slightly, put it down, picked up the spoon to taste the millet porridge with sauerkraut, and put down the spoon after taking one bite.
"How is it?" Oujia asked excitedly.
"The fried eggs were too old and burnt, and there seemed to be no salt." Xu Jianling commented one by one, "The millet porridge was too hard and lumpy; the pickled cabbage was too sour and astringent, and it felt like it had not been washed and chopped in a mess. I didn't want to eat it. "
"Is it so delicious?" Ou Jia muttered and picked up the chopsticks, "I'll give it a try, and you can try something else."
Xu Jianling continued to taste and comment: "Did you buy these Xiao Long Bao in bags and then steam them freshly? You can still eat them, but these Xiao Long Bao are soaked in water. Did you steam them?" Put too much water?"
Ou Jia put down the chopsticks in her hands and said with a grimace: "Well, when I steamed it for the first time, I put too little water and the pot was boiled dry. When I steamed it for the second time, I put a little more water. When the water boiled, The xiaolongbao was soaked."
"These noodles are so fishy!" Xu Jianling took a bite of the noodles and shook his head. "The fishy smell of the beef is too strong. You can't feel the delicious taste of the beef at all. The noodles are also overcooked. I can't eat them. You can eat it yourself."
¡°Where¡¯s the soy milk?¡±
"It smells like burning."
Xu Jianling stood up and went to the refrigerator to get bread, sandwiches and milk: "I'd better eat this."
"Oh, it tastes really bad." Ou Jia sighed after taking a few bites, "I've been here since seven in the morning and lost a lot of ingredients. Why does the food still taste so bad?"
"Cooking is a skill, and it's not easy to learn." Xu Jianling said while chewing a sandwich, "You have never been in the kitchen in your life, how easy is it to learn it from scratch now?"
"It doesn't matter, I will take the time to continue studying"
At this time, Xu Jianling received a video invitation on WeChat. He glanced at it and smiled bitterly: "Mom is here again."
Ou Jia also sighed: "She cares more about our work than we do, wishing that we could take away all Oucheng's customers and investment projects overnight, and replace Oucheng and Chen Xuerong as the president and female chairman of Oucheng Group. "
"She has been looking forward to it for so many years and finally waited for the moment of revenge against Chen Xuerong. Of course she couldn't hold it back." After Xu Jianling finished speaking, he accepted the video invitation and smiled at Xu Jialin, "Mommy, good morning."
"It's getting late here, we're getting ready for lunch. What are you and Baby Jiajia busy with?" Xu Jialin was clearly sitting at a dining table filled with exquisite food, or staying in her villa, but she still wore delicate makeup. Like a princess entertaining distinguished guests.
The brother and sister often think that if their mother can devote her time and energy to studying and doing business, why not worry about surpassing Chen Xuerong as soon as possible?
"We are having breakfast." Xu Jianling moved the phone slightly, "Look, Xiaojia made these, and made a lot of them. It's a pity that you are not here, otherwise you can taste Xiaojia's craftsmanship."
"Hi, good afternoon, mommy." Oujia waved to the camera, "You are as beautiful as usual today, you are so charming to me."
Xu Jialin raised her hand and pushed her delicately curled bangs behind her ears, pouting slightly like a little girl: "Baby Jiajia, didn't Mommy teach you when you were young that a real lady must not cook? Is it? Washing vegetables and cooking will make a woman's hands rough and stained with the smell of oil smoke, which is not conducive to the maintenance of her hands. Mommy still"Have I told you that the three parts of a woman that are most likely to show signs of aging are the lips, neck and hands? These three places are also the parts that women are most likely to ignore. They must be taken care of sooner or later"
Come, come, come again Mommy loves to nag.
Ou Jia and Xu Jianling looked at each other with headaches on their faces, but they did not dare to show impatient expressions or interrupt their mother's nagging, because their mother not only has a girl's heart, but also a glass heart, in case of a shock Then I started crying, which was even more annoying.
"If a woman wants to cook food for the man she likes, she should cook it without being exposed to oil fumes." Xu Jialin kept introducing her experience in flirting and caring for men, "Just like me, if I want to cook food for your daddy, Yes, I only make desserts like Tremella Fungus and Lotus Seed Soup, and I make chicken soup after having people wash and cut the ingredients. I will definitely not do things like washing, cutting, cooking, or washing dishes. , otherwise when you get older and your hands become thicker, you won¡¯t be perfect enough, and the man you love will be seduced by other women"
Ou Jia and Xu Jianling looked at each other again, ready to find a reason to hang up.
At this time, Ou Chengling¡¯s face appeared in the video.
Ou Chengling hugged Xu Jialin, kissed her on the face and then said to the camera: "Xiaoling, your mommy and I will go to the airport after lunch. We will first take a plane to Huacheng, and then take the train to Yuanjing. At dawn tomorrow We will definitely reach Yuanjing. If there are no accidents, I would like to invite Yucui to dinner tomorrow night, and you will also attend."
"Me?" Xu Jianling was surprised, "Why?"
"Of course it's to help you get a foothold in Ouchi." Ou Cheng said with a smile, "You will definitely encounter a lot of problems at work and in relationships when you first arrive in Ouchi. I hope you can prepare some questions and ask Yu when the time comes. Just ask for advice."
Xu Jianling said thoughtfully: "I understand, I will be prepared."
"I'll go too, I'll go too." Ou Jia raised her hand, "I've wanted to meet Yu Cui for a long time. I think she and I will have a lot in common."
"It's not appropriate for you to show up now." Ou Chengling shook his head, "If Chen Xuerong knows your existence, she will definitely be greatly stimulated and try every means to drive you out of Yuanjing. This will be very detrimental to your development in Yuanjing."
"But I really want to get to know Yu Cui. Didn't you say that if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in every battle?"
Ou Chengling pondered for a few seconds and said, "If you really want to go, you can dine in the same restaurant and observe in secret."
"Then it's settled." Oujia smiled happily, "I will sit at the table next to you, eat with my friends, and listen to what you have to say." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel. com
