Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 59: Ghost

Everyone fell silent and looked curiously at this little girl who was only as high as King Qi's shoulders. She didn't know what amazing words she would say. I didn't expect Ning Xi to clear her throat, but it was not her double words. Xilou: "Just now, everyone has seen the chicken marrow shoots presented by Pinxianju, right? Many people have even tasted it. I wonder if everyone thinks it tastes good?"

People don't know why, but they tell the truth: "The originality is unique, the taste is delicious, and it is indeed a rare delicacy."

"Then do you know what ingredients are used in this dish and how it is made?"

"The recipe of the dish is a secret that the chef does not pass on, so how can it be known at will!"

"But not only can I make it, but I also made it with my own hands a few days ago. I plan to use it as a competition dish at today's food conference!"

This sentence is like pouring a spoonful of cold water into a hot oil pan, and it explodes with a bang.

In the midst of everyone's discussion, Ning Xi said: "If I say this casually, everyone will not be convinced. Then, I want to invite the chef of Pinxianju to come up, let's make this dish in public, and then Let everyone taste it, who is doing it well!"

"Okay!" The guests who were watching the fun and not afraid of big things coaxed and looked at Li Shaoming, the young owner of Pinxianju.

Li Shaoming's face was ashen, and he was about to open his mouth to refuse, but Ning Xi said again: "Could it be that your chef at Pinxianju knows that he has stolen other people's dishes and has no courage to come out?"

Li Shaoming slapped the table and stood up: "Comparing, who is afraid of who? When our Pinxianju became famous in the capital, you yellow-haired girl was still drinking milk in her mother's arms, don't think that it's great if you can cook a few dishes. , how dare you to confuse right and wrong with bold words.”

Ning Xi said leisurely, "Then let's see who is turning right and wrong!"

The servants of King Qi's mansion are very efficient. In the blink of an eye, an open space was cleared in the lobby, and two long tables were placed, a stove, and a large pot on the stove, and various ingredients on the table were also Ready to go.

Ning Xi fastened his sleeves and occupied a long table with the chef at Pin Xianju, facing each other.

King Qi personally announced: "Start!"

Ning Xi lowered his head slightly, and started to get busy in an orderly manner, cooking bamboo shoots, cooking chicken, and chopping velvet, one by one, one by one.

On the other hand, the chef at Ping Xian Ju is obviously inferior. He always picks up one thing and puts it down in a hurry, turns his head to get another, and occasionally raises his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. It doesn't have the demeanor that a chef should have at all. People who have been to Pinxianju before to eat have a deep sense of being deceived.

I saw Ningxi's fingers dexterously, flying up and down, using a silver needle to cut open the bamboo shoots of the jade finger one by one, stuffing the chopped stuffing, and then placing a beautiful shape on the plate, although her movements did not It's not fast, but her posture is beautiful, and the people watching it don't feel anxious, but patiently appreciate her calm performance.

Somehow, Jun Qianyu actually felt a sense of pride in his heart, a sense of accomplishment similar to the child he brought out in front of others. Boy, how awesome!

After a competition, you almost don't need to look at the final result. It's already clear at a glance who is the original and who is the replica. Besides, after Ningxi's chicken marrow shoots were tasted by everyone, it was unanimously recognized that Bipinxianju's product was indeed Much better.

Ning Xi said loudly: "Pinxianju used such a despicable act at the food conference, embezzling other people's ideas and copying other people's dishes, the people's daughter is here to beg the prince to give justice to the people's daughter!"

King Qi stood up and announced: "Pinxianju violated the rules of the food conference and behaved despicably. From now on, Pinxianju will be permanently closed and will not reopen!"

Li Shaoming stood up abruptly, staring at Ning Xi, who was standing beside King Qi, his face was ashen, and there were bursts of hatred in his eyes. Finally, he clenched his fists and strode out.

Although Ningxi's water chestnut porridge has been approved by the princess, only half of the people who are scheduled to offer the food are offered, and the other half are waiting. It is impossible for people to prepare hard for a long time, and finally nothing. If you don’t do it, just leave, so King Qi gave an order, and the food conference continues.

King Qi personally set up a small table next to the main table, and invited Ning Xi to the table. This is a great honor for a cook, and it is a recognition that many people have worked hard for their entire lives. , there was a breath of cold air from the audience, but Ning Xi sat very calmly.

Ning Xi was fortunate enough to get a taste of every dish that was offered after that, and she gained a lot of knowledge.

Before she left, there was actually a guest at the main table talking to her, claiming that she would definitely go to Shuangxi Tower to taste the delicious food in person another day. After she left, Ning Xi looked at the famous post in her hand. President? What is this name?

Meng Shuangshuang came to look for Ning Xi to go back, and said with righteous indignation: "When I go back to find out who the inner ghost is, let's see if I don't cramp his tendons and skin him!" Ning Xi laughed and liked her This love-hate disposition.

Jun Qianyu also walked beside Ning Xi before leaving, and reminded: "Don't forget the thirteen dishes you still owe me."

Ning Xi was very happy and didn't hate him anymore when he saw his debt collection look: "Please rest assured, Fifth Master Jun, you will not forget it, the girl will definitely make thirteen ingenious dishes to present to Fifth Master. "

Meng Shuangshuang asked curiously, "What thirteen dishes?"

Ning Xi explained: "Jun Wu Ye took me to Lezhou to find Princess Qi's wet nurse. In exchange, I will make thirteen dishes for him that no one else has ever eaten."

Meng Shuangshuang suddenly realized: "So it is, no wonder I said why he was so kind to you all of a sudden, it turns out that the drunkard's intention is not drinking! Bai treats him as a good person." Suddenly he smiled and leaned forward, " That, Ningxi, can I also get some light when you cook for Fifth Master?"

Ning Xi pinched her face with a smile: "When will I cook less food than you, a greedy cat? Don't worry, you will definitely be a part of it by then."

The two returned to Shuangxi Tower happily. Rong Daquan and the others had already received the news, and they all gathered around now to inquire about the situation at that time.

"Ning Dong's family, did Princess Qi really eat the porridge you made?"

"I heard that Pinxianju made a chicken marrow shoot that is exactly the same as yours, is it true?"

"Isn't Qi Wang's mansion so big that you can't even recognize the road in it?"

"I heard that Princess Qi looks like a fairy, isn't she particularly beautiful?"

These questions are really outrageous, and Ning Xi doesn't know how to answer them.

"Cough cough!" Meng Shuangshuang sat down at the table with a big horse and a golden knife, stretched out a palm and shook it at everyone, "Come here, do you want to listen to Mr. Meng, who is full of witty words, tell you a story. What about today's news about the Qi Palace? One of five coins, and the lecture will start after paying all the money!"

"Cut!" The crowd dispersed with a bang.

Only Rong Daquan and a few others in the kitchen stayed, and asked worriedly: "Ningxi, does Pinxianju really make chicken marrow shoots?"

Ning Xi nodded: "It's true, and it's exactly the same as what I did last time."

Rong Daquan's apprentice Wang Dongping suddenly said angrily, "It must be Feng Zhihai, I'll just say that the kid is sneaky."

Ningxi asked calmly, "Where's Feng Zhihai?"

Wang Dongping said: "I went out the day before yesterday, and I haven't seen anyone yet, so I definitely don't dare to come back."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly rushed in from the door, and with a "thump" he knelt down in front of Ningxi: "Miss Ning, I beg you, please forgive me!"

Ning Xi looked at Feng Zhihai kneeling in front of him with a little sadness: "Is it really you?"

Feng Zhihai cried bitterly: "I'm sorry Miss Ning, I was obsessed with my mind for a while, and I did things that I'm sorry for you and Shuangxi Tower, but now I'm really desperate, if you don't help me, I and I Mother really can't live anymore."

Ning Xi said with contempt: "Stop crying, a big man, what kind of crying he looks like! I don't understand, did I help you a little while ago? Where are I and Shuangxilou? I'm sorry for making you do such a thing?"

Feng Zhihai reluctantly stopped crying: "Because my mother is seriously ill, and life really can't go on, Li Shaodong from Pin Xianju gave me twenty taels of silver to help me find out what Miss Ning is going to be at the food conference. The dishes I made, I, I had no choice but to!"

Ning Xi sneered: "So during the chef qualification exam, Li Shaodong bought you to do it when he wanted to frame me for cheating?"

Feng Zhihai lowered his head in embarrassment: "Yes... yes."

"So for a mere twenty taels of silver, you can betray your conscience?"

"Miss Ning, I was wrong, I really didn't mean to harm you! I beg you to spare me this time, as long as I can stay in Sungai Tower, I will definitely repay you in the future. of kindness.”

"Yes, you didn't do it on purpose, you did it on purpose! Oh, if Pinxianju hadn't been closed down and you had nowhere to go, I'm afraid you wouldn't have come! Feng Zhihai, think about what I gave What a great opportunity for you, if it weren't for Sungai Tower, do you think you could learn the most advanced cooking skills so easily? Your mother needs money to see a doctor. To learn skills in a down-to-earth way, I have to go down that crooked way. I am kind-hearted, yes, but I am not stupid, and I will not keep a poisonous snake that bit me by my side!"

"Miss Ning, I beg you, I am like this, no restaurant will take me in, if you really want to drive me out, then our family will be doomed!"

"If you do something wrong, you will have to bear the consequences. I run a restaurant instead of a shantang. Don't use your tragic drama to coax me. Go out and don't come here again. I You will never be accepted here."

Feng Zhihai wanted to ask again, but Meng Shuangshuang said viciously from the side: "We'd be considered generous if we didn't capture you and send you to the government. If you don't want to get out, you will come again next time. I'll fight you every time I see you." After kicking him, Feng Zhihai was unprepared and was kicked to the ground by her.

The guys on both sides also came over, one of them raised his arm and threw it outside the door: "Get out of here!"

Feng Zhihai wept and walked slowly while wiping away his tears.

Ning Xi was standing at the door, sighing to himself, when suddenly seeing officers and soldiers coming, they affixed the seal again on the door of Pinxianju opposite the door, and on the lintel were three large gold lacquer plaques with "Pinxianju". It was also unloaded and thrown aside, with a desolate look.

Ning Xi was about to go in to rest, but saw a servant who was serving by the fifth master came to send a message to let Ning Xi get ready. Tomorrow, the fifth master would come to eat the first dish.
