Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 73: Two wins in three games
An Mingyue was angry: "Then what are you guys?"
The man snorted coldly: "Our Wanfuju is a well-known old brand in the capital anyway, and a small restaurant like you, which is famous for its opportunism, deserves to be compared with us? Let our chefs cook with you, I feel ashamed!"
This time even Rong Daquan couldn't help it: "Wan Laosan, what do you mean by that!"
The man known as Wan Laosan squinted at Rong Daquan: "Yo, who am I, it turns out to be the former chef of Quan Jufu, why, Quan Jufu can't stay anymore? Come down to find my brother. After all, we have known each other for many years. There is still room for a second and third kitchen in the kitchen of our Wanfuju. Look at you, what kind of small restaurant did you go to? Tsk tsk , I can't even get a seat in the palace of the eldest princess, really!"
Hearing that the master was bullied like this, Wang Dongping was so angry that he rushed up and grabbed the collar of Wan Laosan.
Wan Laosan stiffened his neck: "You fight, this is the place of the eldest princess, let's see who suffers in the end."
"Brother Rong, please stop him!" Ning Xi said quickly, staring at Wang Dongping, "Stay for me and don't cause trouble for me."
"Hmph! You're acquainted with each other!" Wan Laosan smugly brushed the front of his shirt and was about to sit down.
Ning Xi said, "Is the restaurant good? You can't just talk about it like this. You want to see the truth in cooking. I think Boss Wan is very confident in your chefs, so why don't you dare to come? Would you like to try it with me?"
"Compare, compare, what is there to dare, how do you want to compare?"
"We'll go in and cook later. Whoever gets more votes will win. The loser must withdraw and stop participating in the cruise party. What do you think?"
Wan Laosan looked at the other party. Except for Rong Daquan, he had no confidence in winning, the others were young people. He didn't care about them at all. , are chefs with at least ten years of experience, as long as it is not against Rong Daquan, winning is a must.
So he patted the table: "Yes, but I have a condition."
"Whatever conditions, you just say."
"We win two out of three games, each side has three chefs, and the side that wins more than two games wins."
Before Ning Xi spoke, Meng Shuangshuang hurriedly said, "No, it's not fair at all. The three people we signed up for, besides Ning Xi, one is an apprentice, and the other is even half-baked in swordsmanship. If I didn’t study well, how can I compare with you?”
Indeed, Rong Daquan came here this time to bring his apprentices to see the world. At that time, Ningxi was not there, and Shuangxi Tower would rely on him, so he didn't sign up at all, and Shuangxi Tower signed up. , only Ning Xi, Wang Dongping and An Mingyue.
Wan Laosan laughed: "Are you afraid? If you are afraid, just kneel down and kowtow to Grandpa, and Grandpa won't care about you!"
Ningxi asked Rong Daquan in a low voice: "Brother Rong, do you know the chef of the other party? How is his level?"
Rong Daquan also whispered in her ear: "The oldest person on the opposite side is from a royal chef. Even I may not be able to compare, but if you take action, Ningxi, it shouldn't be a problem."
"What about the others, how about Wang Dongping's win against them?"
"The others are just average. We've made enough preparations this time, and we should have no problem winning."
"Okay." Ning Xi nodded and raised his voice: "According to your conditions, we will win two of the three games, and the three of us will participate in the Shuangxi Tower." After speaking, he pointed to himself and Wang Dongping and An. Mingyue two people.
Seeing that the Rong Daquan did not participate, Wan Laosan laughed and decided that they must have won this time, and ordered three chefs, including the former imperial chef, to come out: "This is our Wanfuju chef." Ever since he was stole the limelight by the little-known Shuangxi Lou at the food conference last time, Wan Laosan has been resentful for a long time, and now he finally has the opportunity to suppress them well. After going back, there will be a good talk, and their Wanfuju has driven Shuangxi Tower out of the cruise ship flower party.
"Boss Wan, in order to avoid confusion after the results come out later, let's settle the order first, shall we?" Ning Xi suggested.
Wan Laosan didn't take them seriously at all. Even if Ning Xi won the first place in the food conference, he thought she was just inquiring about Princess Qi's preferences in advance, and it was just opportunistic. What ability can she have at her age, not to mention the other two, one is just Rong Daquan's apprentice, and the other, looking at the appearance of her hands, has not done kitchen work, and they can't do anything about it. Come out of flowers.
Therefore, he readily agreed: "Just line up." Wan Laosan called out the former imperial chef, "You are the first." The other two randomly arranged the second and third.
Ningxi also took out An Mingyue: "You are the first."
"No!" An Mingyue also heard Rong Daquan say that this old man is the most powerful among the opponents, and said a little scared, "I definitely can't win against him!"
Ning Xi is funny: "You can't win anyone, okay? Just fight the strongest one, and we can take advantage of the remaining two!"
An Mingyue thought for a while: "This makes sense."
Afraid that Wang Dongping's mental quality is not enough to pass the test, Ning Xi put him in the second place: "Don't worry, just make the best of yourself."
"Yes!" Wang Dongping clenched his fists and nodded heavily.
As for herself, she will leave it to the finale. The reason for this arrangement is mainly that she did not want to pass the level at the beginning, so she reported a too common dish name, I am afraid that the first impression on the judges will be No good, so I took a trick and didn't challenge the opponent's most powerful former imperial chef.
Wan Laosan was amused by the arrangement of Sungai Tower: "Do you think this arrangement will be able to win us over? It's a fool's dream!"
Ning Xi smiled indifferently: "Everything will be known when the results come out."
After the registration form was handed in, the order was disrupted and called in. Five people entered at a time. After the previous batch entered, someone would read out the list of the next batch, and these five people could go to select the ingredients to prepare. .
It is a coincidence that the former imperial chef and An Mingyue were the same group whose names were called. The two went to choose the ingredients together. An Mingyue swayed a delicate small silver knife in one hand and said to the former imperial chef with a smile: "Master , you are so old, so take it easy!"
The former royal chef blows his beard and stares.
An Mingyue was determined to lose anyway, so she didn't feel any pressure at all, she just picked a big red radish in her heart, and went to harass the former royal chef: "Master, what are you planning to do? ?"
The former royal chef glared at An Mingyue and ignored her. What he wanted to do was Wensi tofu, a piece of tofu sliced into very thin slices, and then quickly cut the sliced tofu into filaments like hair. It is absolutely impossible to cut it with one-handed knife craftsmanship.
The girl in front of me wants to compete with him in knife skills? Go back to practice for a few decades and come back! The former royal chef thought disdainfully.
The tofu soup made by the former imperial chef is really good. Thousands of strands of tofu, as thin as hair, are floating in the soup bowl, like clouds and flakes, which are also decorated with cucumber, ham , golden needles, shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, chicken mince and other filaments cut into various colors, or green or red, or yellow or black, colorful and pleasing to the eye.
As soon as the dish was served, the judges nodded and raised the sign of approval impatiently.
In the end, the former royal chef got nine votes, and one of them didn't let him pass, that's because the two had a feud in the past.
However, the result of the nine votes has already made him very proud. He glanced at An Mingyue with the corner of his eye, and saw that she was still carefully carving a radish, and sneered in his heart. This carving skill is the best skill for every cook to learn to cook. Basically, taking it out here is shameful, and this Shuangxi Tower is too much.
An Mingyue didn't care so much, she carefully carved the radish flower and sent it to her. What made her jaw drop was that the judges in this round didn't say a word, and raised the approved ones in unison. Brand, well, ten votes passed.
This time, even An Mingyue is not calm: "This, this, why is this?"
One of the judges said: "The cruise ship flower party, how can we use flowers as decoration? The eldest princess said that our dishes should be as colorful as possible, but with so many chefs, you are the only one who signed up for carving. , we have already agreed, as long as the flower you carved can still be seen, we will want you, little girl, work hard, it's all up to you."
"No way!" An Mingyue really wanted to go back on it, why did she carve so well just now, "Actually, I just learned to carve, and my skills are still very poor. Look, this petal is still carved a big size. Little one, really let me go up, what a disgrace to the long princess, why don't you do it!"
"No one will take a close look at this trivial matter, as long as it's okay on the face. Okay, don't waste time, the next group!"
When the two of them went out, the face of the former royal chef was so black that he was scared to death, An Mingyue was worried that he might be out of breath: "Master, you really have to take it easy this time, I Ah, this is a blind cat touching a dead mouse, if you want to say it is powerful, it is you who are more powerful, haha!"
Seeing that An Mingyue came out with a spring breeze, against the gray face of the front chef, Ningxi asked curiously, "Miss An, what are you doing to others! Don't be angry with the old man!"
An Mingyue spread her hands: "I'm not angry with him, who told me to be strong, if I have to win him, I can't help it!"
