Adorable Food Goddess Chapter 188: Success in the first battle

Ye Jiayao used Mapo tofu to pick a Sichuan cuisine chef. After a crowd of good deeds cheered up and promoted, Ye Jiayao once again became the focus of Jinling City, and the limelight overwhelmed all the popular contestants.

Someone is fortunate, but fortunately, this woman is married, otherwise the competition will have another rival.

Some people regret, why did you marry so early? Otherwise, the excitement of the competition will not only be improved by one level, so so and so is definitely not the opponent.

There are also people who are very sad, such as Ye Ning's mother and daughter, such as the Liuli princess who is about to become a wife with Ye Jiayao.

This woman was so restless after she became a relative, she had to make such a big noise to respond to her. Ye Jinrong had a great reaction to pregnancy, and she lay in bed half-dead every day.

Wei Liujiang asked his family to ask for a sum of money to do business. He heard that there were many people playing jade in Jinling, so he opened a jade shop. Unexpectedly, he was cheated on the first purchase and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver. Looking for someone to reason, I was beaten again, and after lying at home for several days, my nose and face were still swollen.

Mu Qi couldn't stand it, and begged Mu Shilang to find him a business with oil and water. It happened that the Ministry of Engineering was working on the water conservancy project. The river from Jinling to Yangzhou. If done well, the oil and water would be sufficient. , Mu Shilang took a lot of air to help him get the right to contract.

At first, Wei Liujiang felt that the contractor was not very nice and did not have the elegance of playing jade, but he could not withstand the persuasion of his mother-in-law and his wife, so he reluctantly accepted it.

On October 20, the long-awaited cooking competition officially kicked off.

Five days, the first day is the basic skills competition.

Because Zhong Xiang participated in pastry, Ye Jiayao's focus is also on pastry.

A total of 96 contestants participated in the pastry competition. Half of them came from Shanxi. Shanxi is famous for its pasta dishes. Each of these contestants are full of self-confidence. They look like the top three. The quota is none other than them.

The content of the assessment is designated by the competition, making dumplings, which are fashionable noodle dishes in the north and south. Don't underestimate a dumpling, it contains all the basic skills needed to make pasta: mixing, kneading, rolling, dividing, making skin, filling, forming and so on.

The filling is uniform, the amount of white noodles, water, and water are equal, and the production tools are the same. No condiments are allowed, and dumplings are simply made.

Ye Jiayao took Jiang Yue and Wang Mingde to watch the game. Looking at the proficient skills one by one, Wang Mingde was a little uncomfortable, and he was about to pass half of the preliminary rounds.

"Second young lady, do you think Brother Xiang can enter the semi-finals?"

Ye Jiayao frowned slightly. This is hard to say. Although Zhong Xiang's basic skills are good, but the masters here are like clouds, it depends on the last process...formation, hoping to win with skill.

Before the game, they prepared many new styles of noodles, such as three-color dragon-beard noodles, gradient wide noodles, steamed mandarin duck dumplings, steamed rose dumplings, steamed butterfly dumplings, steamed mandarin duck dumplings, and various buns, pancakes, etc. .

As a result, I didn't expect the competition system to be like this. Everyone can't think of ideas on the dough. As long as the dough is flexible, the key is the last step. It seems that the previous preparations were not in vain.

Everyone's hands are very dexterous, and they are divided into twenty-two doses according to the regulations. A staff member brought a plate, took one dose from each hand, and placed it according to the number.

After rolling out the dough, take another piece of dough.

That means that every step is the point of judgment.

"It's starting to fill." Jiang Yue wrings the veil in her hands nervously.

Ye Jiayao started walking, walking along the cordon from the first row to the last row, her expression gradually relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.

Returning to the original position, Wang Mingde said: "Does the second young lady see any way?"

The corner of Ye Jiayao's mouth curled, and she said with certainty: "Zhong Xiang can win."

Because, most of the contestants are honestly making traditional dumplings, only a few are ingenious, but can these people be more creative than a gourmet expert from thousands of years later? Ye Jiayao shook them casually, enough to shock them.

Wang Mingde and Jiang Yue's mood gradually relaxed after seeing the second young lady so determined.

Zhong Xiang completed the tasks at a lower level. After all, butterfly dumplings are much more complicated and delicate than traditional dumplings.

This time the dumplings were not accepted. The five judges looked at them one after another. They felt that the shape was exquisite and cute. They nodded, and only the entourage came to take the dumplings away. All the dumplings left were announced to be eliminated.

Zhong Xiang’s butterfly dumplings are undoubtedly very eye-catching. The judges stayed in front of Zhong Xiang’s chopping board for the longest time and seemed to have asked some questions.

Because of the distance, I couldn't see the judges' expressions or hear what they said, until Zhong Xiang's butterfly dumplings were taken away.

Jiang Yue clapped her hands happily, and whispered in a low voice: "Take it away and go, there is hope."

The last five judges gathered at the front desk and pointed around the selected dumplings. There was a long time for a stick of incense before someone announced the finalists.

Ye Jiayao and others listened with their ears upright, and took 36 places in total, and Zhong Xiang's name ranked fifth.

Ye Jiayao nodded in satisfaction. This result is very good.

Jiang Yue is not convinced: "I think Brother Xiang did the best, so why is it only ranked fifth?"

Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "This is a comprehensive assessment, not just looking at the appearance. Zhong Xiang's fifth place has already accounted for the advantage of the appearance. Be content, the chance to enter the next schedule is the key."

Zhong Xiang succeeded in the first battle, he himself was very happy, and went down to give Ye Jiayao his hand: "Second young lady, fortunately not insulted."

Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "Congratulations, you have passed the first level, but the following events will be more intense, you and Wang Mingde quickly go back and prepare."

The pastry contest ended early, and the cooking contest on the other side came to an end. Ye Jiayao waited for news in the past.

Not surprisingly, Lu Xiaotian, Duan Qilin, Niu Baoshun, Zheng Sanduo and others were all shortlisted. There are a total of 48 seats. The chef of Jinling City has eight seats, which is a good result.

When I returned to the Hou Mansion, I met Lin Kun, the manager, and Lin Kun said that the small kitchen was completed today, and Mr. Zhong was leading the acceptance.

Ye Jiayao was so happy and hurried back to her yard.

A few workers are knocking on the fence and transporting the bricks out.

"Second young lady, wait a minute, this place is messy, carefully slapped your feet." Zhongguo said hurriedly.

"It's not in the way." Ye Jiayao cautiously crossed the mess and stepped into the kitchen.

This kitchen is her position. Whether the family business can achieve a double harvest depends on this small kitchen to a large extent, and she has to personally check and accept it.

This stove is different from ordinary stoves. It has separate stoves and stoves. There are two large stoves for cooking and two small stoves for cooking. The streamlined design looks chic and stylish, and saves space.

Ye Jiayao nodded in satisfaction, the plasterer carried out her plan very well.

"How much silver is there in total?" Ye Jiayao asked.

Steward Zhong said: "Madam has already explained that the necessary expenses will be paid out of the office."

"I'll do it myself!" Ye Jiayao didn't say much. If she came out of public school, the sister-in-law's family should have opinions again.

Xia You’s approved her to build a small kitchen. My sister-in-law has been the boss and complained a lot. Now Aunt Jiang and Jiang Yue are well-connected in the house, so some words were passed to her ears as they were. . Said that Xia You’s eccentricity, what Ye Jinxuan said that she stepped on low and flattered her, she even said that she built a small kitchen to challenge Liuli...

I really served the Qiao family. At any rate, he is also a lady of everyone, how can he be more accountable than a village woman, telling the truth.

Seeing that she must give the money by herself, Mr. Zhong said: "Material processing money, a total of four hundred and sixty-seven taels of silver."

Ye Jiayao told Jiang Yue: "You go and fetch five hundred taels of silver, and the extra money is regarded as a reward for the master and the workers."

The plasterer is so grateful, these two young ladies are really generous in their actions, and they have rewarded so much. It is a blessing to do things for this kind of master.

Everyone was rewarded with silver and worked harder. After a while, the fence was torn down, and the yard was neatly packed and clean, and there was no dust.

Ye Jiayao wanted to go to Datie Alley to make custom cooking utensils right away, but Caifeng, who was next to Xia Yous, came and told Ye Jiayao to go there.

Qiao is also here, and Xia You said: "Chunfeng’s wedding is approaching, and the repair of the yard has been completed, but there are still a few potted plants. This matter is left to Mingxiu. You will be supported by the public tomorrow. One thousand taels of silver. Go to the Peony Garden outside the city to buy some good-looking peonies and other flowers. Liuli likes gorgeous ones."

Qiao's laughed: "Mother don't worry, my daughter-in-law still has some appreciation for Peony~ IndoMTL.com~ Xia Youshi smiled and smiled, she has nothing to worry about, it's a big deal to make her greedy for nothing. .

"Jin Xuan, I know you are busy with the cooking competition these few days, but the things that should be prepared have to be prepared, don't delay the wedding banquet." Xia Youshi again instructed Ye Jiayao.

Ye Jiayao said: "When I return to my mother, the necessary utensils have been ordered, and they will be delivered in the next few days. The ingredients to buy are also agreed. The cooking competition is over on the 25th and the wedding banquet is on the 28th. There are three days to prepare and there will be no problem."

Xiayou's head nodded slightly: "This matter, you have to spend a hundred and twenty minutes at heart."

Qiao said: "If your younger siblings are too busy, just tell me what you want to buy, and my sister-in-law will buy it for you."

Ye Jiayao said in his heart: I don't worry about what you pass.

"Thank you Sister-in-law, all of my staff are used to private banquets, they are experienced and they can handle it." Ye Jiayao smiled gently and declined.

Qiao's smirk said: "That's the best, I have forgotten, the younger brothers and sisters are still the principals of the heavens!"

Qiao's turned to please Xia You's family again: "The daughter-in-law's family has released a soft tent, which is very beautiful, and only made three tops, which is very valuable. The wife asked the family for one. The big red one could not be better to decorate the new house for the third brother."

Xia You said: "You have a heart, I believe Liuli will like this gift."

Qiao choked, didn't the congratulatory room have been given away? A pair of famille rose vases, eight sheets of quilt, eight pieces of good materials...Isn’t that enough? This smoked gauze tent costs four hundred taels of silver each, and it’s more than this price to sell outside. The mother-in-law actually said that it was a gift. Isn’t she a big loss?
