Chapter 192 192 Competition

The next day, An Xin woke up early and did not make breakfast immediately because today was the day when Chen Hongyan went to the exploration team to participate in the recruitment competition.

An Xin deliberately made time to wait for Chen Hongyan to come over. If there was anything she didn't understand, she wanted to teach her on the spot a few times.

But unexpectedly, Chen Hongyan came to the exploration team very quickly, but she didn't have any idea of ​​asking An Xin for advice. She walked to her old mother uneasily and said uncertainly.

"Mom, the competition for the exploration team doesn't start until eight o'clock. You are asked to make several dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. If I say that if you are not sure about any dishes, it is still early. Let's

Go over to the dormitory and I can teach you on the spot."

It's just past six o'clock now, not even past seven o'clock. If Chen Hongyan has any inaccuracies in cooking, An Xin can teach her on the spot.

What I didn't expect was that Chen Hongyan seemed very calm about this competition. She just looked at her daughter silently, shook her head and said.

"It's now time. There's no need to improvise. You've already taught me what I need to teach. Next, I'll perform at my normal level. Let's just go in when we enter the exploration team kitchen. It's God's will if we can't."

An Xin came back from the provincial capital in the past few days and taught him how to cook when she had nothing to do. She also learned about it at this time. If she really couldn't learn it, she wouldn't be able to learn it. Why bother?

Go waste time and create a tense atmosphere for yourself.

Anxin: "..."

Well, she is superficial, her mentality is unstable, and she is not as stable as her old mother.

Anyway, in Bai Yichen's heart, her mother-in-law's craftsmanship was superior to everyone else. She naturally looked down upon Sister-in-law Chen's noodle-rolling skills next door. Chen Hongyan's biggest rival was Liu Daqian from the same village.

The corners of Bai Yichen's mouth were slightly raised, with a look of arrogance on his face that was difficult to conceal.

"The relationship is great then. Later, let your wife braise some braised pork for us, stir-fry some specialty side dishes, and let the brothers have a good meal."

Bai Yichen walked in front, guiding the leaders into the office to rest and drink tea. When he passed by An Xin, he whispered a few words to her.

Just now, he deliberately gave the credit for the good tea to An Xin, just to let everyone have a good impression of his wife. When he rates Chen Hongyan later, Aiwujiwu will give more impression points.

"Well, this tea is really good. If I taste it correctly, it should be Yuqian Longjing!"

At this moment, the leader who started drinking tea and ordered some good tea said with a smile on his face.

In response to the compliments from the leaders, Bai Yichen stood aside, standing straight and replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

The rest of the leaders agreed.

Finally, it was time for him to put a high hat on his mother-in-law's head without any hesitation.

When he said this, the leaders' eyes exchanged in the air, and they all understood what each other wanted to say but did not say.

After all, everyone likes subordinates to take themselves as a leader into consideration, think about themselves in everything, and contribute to themselves as soon as possible if they have something delicious or fun. It feels great just thinking about it!

Bai Yichen stood there upright, calmly taking in the exchanges between people, pretending not to see anything, but he already understood in his heart.

So, a certain son-in-law raised his head seriously, met the leaders' eyes, and said seriously.

Speaking of which, Anxin gave him this tea in the morning. It is said that he got it from a friend in the provincial capital. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have any tea in his office.

Even though the people present did not speak, they almost all looked at Bai Yichen with admiration.

After getting off the car, Bai Yichen saw his young daughter-in-law standing in the crowd at a glance. After nodding with An Xin, he turned around and opened the door of the back seat. The provincial leaders got out of the back seat one by one, smiling.

He nodded politely to everyone.

In Sister-in-law Chen's heart, her craftsmanship is unrivaled in the world, and she is firmly ranked first.

In fact, it is just a non-staff contract worker these days. As long as Bai Yichen says something nice in front of their leaders, the person is already determined!

"Yes, Xiaobai's wife will be responsible for lunch later."

No one can be considered a rival in her eyes.

Now that the words have come to this point, Bai Yichen has no choice but to jump out and express his stance.

Units like their exploration team with insufficient oil and water cannot afford to buy such good tea, so they can only keep it privately.

After all, Bai Yichen's work ability is there. He has led the entire exploration team and completed many exploration tasks without complaint. The leaders will not deliberately embarrass him. Bai Yichen still has the right to appoint an outside contractor.

"That's right, I even brought out the tea leaves I had secretly stored in my possession to congratulate Zhan. We should meet him later."

It is not easy to cultivate a good employee, and their good employees cannot be discouraged.

Bai Yichen guided all the chefs to the designated written test location, asked the leaders present to sit on the podium, and announced that the competition had begun.

However, the leader's words did not move the expression on Bai Yichen's face at all. Instead, he became more serious than before. He stood up, stood at attention, held his back straight, and said to the leaders.

"Yes, I heard that Xiaobai just got married a few days ago. This is the time when honey is mixed with oil. How can you treat your wife badly?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at Bai Yichen with gleaming eyes and said one after another.

"If that's the case, why didn't you just let your mother-in-law work in the kitchen of the exploration team? Why bother making such a trip for us?"

"Relax, our mother's strength should be fine, I'll go ahead and greet the leader."

"Where is it? It's okay if the leaders don't dislike it. This tea is secretly kept by my wife. It is said that it was given to her by a friend in the provincial capital."

With such a good subordinate, they cannot treat their family members badly. If Bai Yichen's mother-in-law's cooking skills are really good enough, then they will make a decisive decision to keep this person.

"Of course, I will ask my wife to show off her special skills later so that all the leaders can appreciate it."

Bai Yichen got up early in the morning and went to the provincial capital to pick up the direct leader of the exploration team. After a while, he drove a jeep back to the exploration team.

It is said that he is a chef who has worked in a restaurant. I have never met this person before, and I don’t know what his cooking skills are?

So in Bai Yichen's view, as long as Chen Hongyan can successfully kill Liu Daqian today, the position of the exploration team's chef will be hers.

When all the leaders sat down, Bai Yichen hurriedly served the tea one by one. A superior leader in a Chinese tunic suit took a sip of the tea and praised it heartily.

Although the competition is conducted based on the principle of fairness and justice, impression points are very important in various actions of Chinese people.

Of course, what Bai Yichen could think of was An Xin. The moment the two of them passed each other, An Xin gently squeezed the other's broad hand to reassure him.

"Xiao Bai, this tea is good. Is it a treasure from your private collection?"

"Hey, I heard that one of the people who signed up to run for chef this time is your mother-in-law."

"Oh, your daughter-in-law is very capable, and she also cares about you, so she hid a little bit of tea and dedicated it to you. You have to treat her well in the future."

But they didn't do this, and they left the right of choice in the hands of the leaders, which is a bit interesting.

At this moment, another candidate who had signed up to be a chef in the village also arrived. He was a middle-aged man with gray hair, named Liu Daqian. It was said that he had worked as a chef in a hotel in the county town. When he walked in, there was no trace of emotion on his face.

With no expression on his face, he just silently found a seat in the corner and sat down.

They are also very poor and shabby.

Another leader heard that the tea was very good, so he took a sip of the tea and agreed.

"Ahem, yes, Xiaobai's upright and kind spirit is worth learning from. Later, based on the principle of fairness and justice, we will start to select someone who has both talents and is qualified to serve as the chef of the exploration team.

Let’s choose!”

The scene fell into silence. Finally, a leader picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, coughed, and broke the silence.

At this moment, a leader who had been silent all this time put down the tea cup in his hand and said to everyone present.

As soon as this person's words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Bai Yichen. Bai Yichen's face was calm and he thought to himself.

An Xin's skills are so good and her cooking is so delicious. She has been teaching Chen Hongyan for so many days. Chen Hongyan loves to learn and her understanding is not bad, so naturally she won't be any worse.

"Haha, I heard that Xiaobai's new wife is a well-known beauty. We should meet her later."

"Well, after the selection of chefs is over, I will ask my wife to come out to meet everyone. By the way, I will ask her to show her skills to the leaders, cook two side dishes, and drink wine."

These days, people's living standards are generally not high, and there are only a few kinds of dishes. If someone can use limited resources to make delicious dishes, it is naturally welcome.

Several leaders walked into Bai Yichen's office. They walked around inside and each found a chair to sit down. Bai Yichen was busy making tea.

"Look at how you couple can communicate with each other? You will have to show your real skills later on when you go on stage. How can a country girl like Chen Hongyan cook? You will be outclassed in a few seconds."

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone present fell silent, and then the leader said.

Because Chen Hongyan and Liu Daqian were from the same village, when she saw Liu Daqian coming in, Chen Hongyan said to An Xin, then walked straight over, sat with Liu Daqian, and chatted about home affairs.

It was originally an intimate gesture between the young couple, but to outsiders, it was not the same. Sister-in-law Chen sat on the chair and looked coldly at the intimate interaction between Bai Yichen and An Xin, with a coldness flashing in her eyes.

, hate to get the way.

Time passed very quickly. The leaders were in the office. After drinking a cup of tea, it was time to select the chef.

All the leaders present were silent. Bai Yichen's integrity and kindness were exactly what they wanted.

Longjing tea before the rain is not cheap. Bai Yicheng took out some of the secrets for them to drink. He must have taken several leaders to heart. Although the people present did not drink tea, they felt comfortable.

These days, everyone's office is relatively simple. The chairs in Bai Yichen's office were brought yesterday by Wang Aiguo, who asked Wang Aiguo to move them from various departments. Otherwise, these leaders would not even have a place to sit in the office.

"Oh, really? Then Xiaobai, this wife is really married to a treasure!"

At this point, one of the leaders suddenly seemed to have remembered something and spoke.

After talking for a long time, I also offered tea leaves, praised my wife, and praised her, and finally got to the point.

When he said this, Bai Yichen's voice was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were firm, without any personal emotion.

This is all he can do for Chen Hongyan. I believe that as long as Chen Hongyan can perform her position as the exploration team chef properly, it will be hers.

Time passed minute by minute. Like a proud peacock, Sister-in-law Chen finally walked over from the staff dormitory. She only glanced at Liu Daqian sitting in the corner with the corner of her eye.
