Chapter 442 Mr. Gu wants to help
Seeing that the two old people were fine, Ji Qinglin got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to busy himself.
"You little brat, why are you still standing there? Go in and help!" Old Man Gu kept winking at Gu Beisheng.
Gu Beisheng was slightly stunned, then he understood what Mr. Gu meant, and was about to follow Ji Qinglin to the kitchen.
But Ji Qinglin turned around, raised his hand, and blocked Gu Beisheng. "Boss Gu, you should wait outside. The kitchen is a very important place, and other than the chef, no one else should come in and cause trouble."
Gu Beisheng was displeased when he heard this. "You mean, if I go in, not only will I be unable to help, but it will also affect your performance?"
"Yes!" Ji Qinglin nodded without giving any face.
Gu Beisheng raised his eyebrows and immediately rolled up his sleeves. "I just can't believe it! I can manage such a huge Gu Group, but I can't manage a kitchen?"
"Boss Gu, you should wait outside." Ji Qinglin shook his head and said helplessly, "Managing the company is your specialty, but I'm the expert in the kitchen."
Gu Beisheng sneered, with a look of disdain on his face, as if to say, he just didn't believe that a mere kitchen could stump him.
"Are you sure you want to come and help?" Ji Qinglin frowned when he saw how persistent he was.
Gu Beisheng was straightforward and walked around Ji Qinglin and headed towards the kitchen.
Ji Qinglin shook his head, speechless about Gu Beisheng's behavior.
Confidence is a good thing.
But being too confident will only make you a laughing stock.
Ji Qinglin followed him over and after entering the kitchen, he saw Gu Beisheng standing aside, not knowing where to start.
"Boss Gu, don't you want to help?" Ji Qinglin joked. "Why don't you find something to do?"
Gu Beisheng frowned and glanced at Ji Qinglin, "What do you need me to do?"
"If it were me, I would have you standing there, motionless."
"impossible!"
Ji Qinglin shrugged and said helplessly, "Then you can figure it out yourself. Didn't you say that a small kitchen wouldn't be a problem for you?"
Gu Beisheng's brows furrowed more and more. He glanced at the kitchen and found that the conditions here were very backward. They even had an earthen stove that burned firewood. He really had no idea where to start in such an unfamiliar area.
"Let's make a fire."
Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Ji Qinglin didn't want to let him make a fool of himself in front of the old men. After all, he was the one in charge of the Gu family, so he just gave face to Mr. Gu.
Make a fire?
Gu Beisheng subconsciously touched his pocket, trying to find a lighter, but found that he had not carried a lighter with him since he quit smoking.
Then he looked around the earthen stove and finally found a box of matches in the corner.
Gu Beisheng: "..."
He was quite speechless.
If this yard had not been bought by Mr. Gu, he would have suspected that Ji Qinglin was deliberately teasing him.
The task of making a fire is still simple.
However, controlling the heat is not easy.
Once the fire was lit, it became so fierce that it made Gu Beisheng cry.
"The fire is too big!" Ji Qinglin said speechlessly: "Turn it down a bit. The dishes you cook on such a big fire are inedible."
"Ahem!" Gu Beisheng quickly stood up and ran outside to breathe some fresh air. "I say, can't you be a little more modern? Who still uses such an old-fashioned stove these days?"
"What did I say? Professional matters should be left to professionals." Ji Qinglin said with disdain, "Rice cooked on a clay stove like this will have a hint of smoky flavor and be even more fragrant."
