Chapter 13 Fried Sauce Noodles

I thought that last night's 'takeaway' request was Luo Zijin's whim, but the call she received the next day proved that her previous idea was really...

too naive.

"What?" She glanced at the phone with a surprised expression, as if to make sure that she saw the call correctly.

On the other side of the phone, Xiaolu's face was almost wrinkled into a bun, and he tried his best to apologize to her, but he still repeated the words: "I mean, if you are not busy, Sister Chengzi, can you, um... also by the way Where did you bring your lunch?"

No amount of euphemism could change the fact that the other party still wanted to appoint her, the boss, as a delivery person.

Cheng Youyou had never seen such a famous person.

Ever been a high school deskmate?

Is it amazing to be an actress?

Is it great to help her promote a wave of storefronts?

...Forget it, this is really amazing.

"Okay, let's go." Cheng Youyou gritted her teeth, and complied with the request again, not forgetting to confirm: "It's the same as my lunch menu, is it okay?"

Xiaolu was almost moved to tears on the other end of the phone, feeling that Cheng Youyou was the most approachable anchor in the world: "Yeah, as long as it's what you do."

Standing on the balcony and finishing the call, Cheng Youyou looked up at the sunny day outside, and suddenly wanted to go on a hunger strike.

Ever since the rain in the Qingming Festival, the weather in Fengcheng has gradually heated up, and at noon it is so dry that people can't wait to indulge in archery and shoot down the only sun left in the sky.

As for those who want to cook, when they think of the heat in the kitchen, they feel as if they can immediately perform a wave of evaporation on the spot.

She sighed, walked into the kitchen, stared at the few fresh cucumbers and carrots on the table for a long time, and the lunch menu slowly came to mind.

She took out the flour and the basin from the kitchen, washed her hands, and prepared to knead the dough first.

Just after pouring clean cold water into the basin filled with flour, Cheng Jin walked over from the room, opened the kitchen door and asked her, "Sister, is your contract coming soon? The Jinjiang platform contacted me just now."

After finishing speaking, she glanced at the big basin where she was kneading noodles, and asked with a bitter face, "Would you like noodles for lunch?"

As a southerner who was raised on rice, she didn't like noodles at all.

Cheng Youyou pondered for a while, then looked up at her: "If you don't want to eat, you can order takeaway by yourself. As for the contract, I remember it will expire in two months."

Cheng Jin nodded and asked, "Then do you want to renew your contract? You have been popular recently, so the contract over there should be changed to a higher level, or...do you want to return to the entertainment industry?"

At the beginning, Cheng Youyou's development in the entertainment industry was not smooth, and everyone in the family knew, otherwise, she would not be reduced to Cheng Jin, a professional purchasing agent, and also had a side job as Cheng Youyou's agent.

It can be seen that Cheng Youyou really saved 99 lines in the entertainment circle.

After hearing her finish, Cheng Youyou stopped kneading the dough for a while, looked at the flour covered in her hands, and said with a smile: "Let me think about it, don't rush to give an answer."

After kneading the dough, while it was waking up, she soaked some dried shiitake mushrooms, chopped some onion, ginger and garlic, and chopped some meat.

After everything is ready, pour oil in the pan, pour chopped green onion, minced ginger and garlic into the pan and stir fry for a while, add minced meat, and after the oil pan 'Zi Zi' smells, diced shiitake mushrooms are sprinkled in.

Dig up a large spoonful of sweet noodle sauce and bean paste, turn it over with a spatula, add some water, simmer over high heat, pour some soy sauce, and turn to low heat to continue frying.

When the marinade in the oil pan turned into a dark sauce, the diced mushrooms shone with oil and the minced meat was evenly mixed in the sauce, Cheng Youyou scooped it up with a small spoon and tasted it.

Slightly salty, but very fragrant, just right for noodles.

She put down her chopsticks, turned on the fire, and went to wash the box for noodles for a while.

……

Cheng Youyou solved the idea of ​​the takeaway menu, but at the moment in Fengcheng Film and Television City, there are people in Luo Zijin's crew who are so worried that they can't eat.

"Ling Jun" is Luo Zijin's new play this time. The content of the script mainly revolves around the life story of a female general Lu Tongshang in the history of the Northern Qin Dynasty. It tells the story of a father who inherited the horse leather shroud on the battlefield at a young age. This is the story of how the cardamom girl with the title grows into a historically famous general who defends her home and country.

The director is Xu Jiayu, who has recently become popular for filming historical themes. He only uses his own team for filming, because he is so picky about the details in the shots, he is so picky that he even pays attention to the accessories that appear on the heads of the supporting actors who don't have much shots.

Another work he has filmed before has replaced the classic "Journey to the West" and has become a rebroadcast of the summer programs of major domestic TV stations in recent years. It is estimated that it will become the childhood of a new generation of young people.

Such a director who is extremely demanding on details must have gone through a lot of selection when selecting actors. Luo Zijin was able to win the leading role, on the one hand, because he had acted in a costume drama before, and the image fits the heroine this time In addition to her appearance, the actress who just won the Academy Award is undoubtedly an affirmation of her acting skills.

Director Xu didn't waste much effort in choosing the leading role, but spent some time on a few supporting roles.

In the play "Ling Jun", there is a character called Princess Anning. Although she doesn't appear in many scenes, she has a great influence on Lu Tongshang's growth. It can be regarded as a character who directly pushed her to become a general.

The trouble is that in the history book "Biography of Lu Tongshang", the record of Princess Anning is that "the jade is soft and fleshy, and the color is different. Tongshang saw it for the first time and thought it was good."

In other words, this Princess Anning must be a type that the young Lu Tongshang found attractive at the first meeting.

It's better to be kind. After all, according to psychology, the young Lu Tongshang lost his parents and would get close to Princess Anning. He should feel some maternal love from her.

Especially in Lu Tongshang's biography, it is mentioned many times that Princess Anning "is a princess, good at cooking, and the palace people ridiculed her as a 'cooking lady'."

"Cooker" is the title of chefs in ancient times, but this industry did not have a high status in ancient times, so the servants are very disapproving of the dignified princess who often enters the greasy place of the kitchen.

Cooking skills are second to none. Director Xu was a bit tricky in picking the role of "Princess Anning". There are many good-looking and kind characters in the entertainment industry, but they are young, good-looking and kind, and they have to have a sense of camera. It is best to be able to accept this Compensation for supporting roles——

The popular little flower is not willing to serve as a foil for Luo Zijin, and those who pursue the development of acting skills look down on such a role. As for those newcomers who have just entered the showbiz and don't know anything, Director Xu is not willing to teach.

I finally settled a deal with a third-tier actress, and the interview was fine. I made an appointment to join the group immediately after finishing the show at hand this afternoon.

Director Xu picked today such an auspicious day to start the machine. He called everyone up at 04:30 in the morning, set up the altar table, fruits, incense was served, and even the media reporters were ready to broadcast live.

Just as she was about to start the machine, the actress' agent called and said that she fell off the stage during the show and broke her calf—basically, she would not even think about joining the group for a year or so.

Although the manager's apology was very sincere, it could be heard from the desperation in her tone that she was more worried about how her artist would not be cool after such a long rest period.

But none of this has anything to do with Director Xu, because it was Deputy Director Guo who answered the phone.

Deputy Director Guo knows Director Xu's temper best. He doesn't care about supporting roles with broken legs. What's important is that this character has no spare tire at all!

Alright, Princess Anning can't come, what about the afternoon session?

Even if the show can be postponed in the afternoon, where can he find a Princess An Ning in a short time? ? ?

During the entire first filming process, Assistant Director Guo never let go of his frown. On average, he would go out for a cigarette every 15 minutes and ask his assistant how the people he contacted were doing. He didn’t hear from his assistant until lunch time. Letting him face the crew's greasy braised pork rice bowl is even more in the mood to move his chopsticks.

……

It was at this time that Cheng Youyou appeared in the sight of Deputy Director Guo who had finished smoking again.

"The takeaway you want, Ms. Luo Zijin." Cheng Youyou braved the scorching sun at noon in early summer, wearing a white sun hat and a light white dress, followed the path into the set, and put the environmental bag in his hand to Luo Zijin Putting it on the table next to him, he ground his back molars and said.

The more she looked at Luo Zijin's indifferent face that was completely inconsistent with the temper of a dog, the more she thought about why she fell in love with such a person back then?

You can't pull it out once you get it in your eyes?

Luo Zijin had just changed out of her costume, and before she had time to take off her wig, she was sweating all over. The black hair stuck to her forehead, making her jaw line soft and clear, and her eyes were as dark as water.

In fact, she doesn't have much appetite for lunch at the moment, but she just saw the same sweat dripping from Cheng Youyou's forehead, and thought that she was actually being used as an errand for someone to run errands on a hot day, so she subconsciously opened the environmental protection bag and looked inside.

A round black lunch box with a transparent lid revealing the red and green surface inside. Beside it was a glass of dark drink in a glass bottle.

The lunch box was not warm at first, after opening it——

Carrot shreds, cucumber shreds, bean sprouts, half a stewed egg and shiitake mushroom minced pork stewed on the white noodles are all in color.

Luo Zijin went to get the bottle of drink again. There was still a layer of water droplets on the glass wall, and it was ice in his hand. After unscrewing the lid, he brought it to his lips and took a sip, the sweet and sour taste dripped into his mouth.

It's plum juice.

The esophagus blocked by the hot air seemed to be unblocked in an instant, and the hunger in the stomach also flooded up, and the hotness in the whole body was instantly dispelled by the sour plum juice.

She picked up the pair of chopsticks, stirred the bowl of fried noodles, and took a bite.

The salty and fragrant marinade and sauce are mixed into the noodles, the chewy handmade noodles are mixed with finely shredded mushrooms and minced meat, plus the sweet raw carrot and cucumber shreds, and crunchy soybean sprouts, it is summer The most comfortable taste.

Take a bite of the stewed egg, it is even more delicious!

She raised her eyes and looked at the person who was still standing in front of her fanning the wind with her hand and staring at her.

He smiled suddenly, as if the poplar flowers were scattered and fluttered across people's hearts.

"Thank you, the noodles are delicious, thank you for your hard work."

Cheng Youyou was stunned for a moment.

For a long time, I realized from this smile, this is really treating myself as an exclusive chef and part-time delivery person, right?

There was a sense of helplessness in the twinkling peach eyes, and she was about to speak when a person came over and asked:

"Cheng...Cheng Youyou, right? Do you want to take part in "Ling Jun"?"
