The Almighty Taoist of the Beautiful President

Chapter 189
Chef Cai Jinfo finished all the dishes, and felt that he performed exceptionally well today, and the guests outside probably couldn't eat from ear to ear.

He washed his hands, as usual, he was going out to show off.

But when Master Cai walked into the restaurant, he saw that the dishes he had carefully cooked had not been touched. Instead, it was the inexplicable girl who had a pot of "boiled cabbage in clear water", but was eaten by the guests.

Lao Cai's face turned dark, even if he was killed, he would not believe that his shark's fin and bird's nest would be inferior to a dish of "boiled cabbage in clear water".

Cai Jinfo walked into the restaurant with heavy steps, coughed heavily, and fixed his eyes on Li Changan, wishing he could grab him and ask if the dishes he cooked were really bad, or if he deliberately came here to smash his own signboard.

Li Changan put down his chopsticks, he had already seen the aggressive Chef Cai.

Shen Mengxun also turned her head, and when she saw Cai Jinfo's expression, she cried out inwardly.

But now, Chef Cai will not give face to the master anymore, he held back his breath and asked in a rough voice: "Excuse me, sir, is there something wrong with the dishes I cook?"

This chef has a really bad temper.

Li Changan wiped his mouth and said casually: "It's not bad, but I don't have time to taste it."

Cai Jinfo almost fainted when he heard it, and said with a red face and thick neck: "I, Cai Jinfo, came to Jiangning from Guangzhou when I was 12 years old. I carried the signboard of Nanyue cuisine in my hand. For more than 30 years, there has never been a customer who said that he didn't have time to taste my craft. This gentleman, please give me an explanation!"

Shen Mengxun's face darkened, and she wanted to ask someone to drive this rude cook out, but Li Changan waved his hand lightly to signal her that it's okay.

At this time, Li Chang'an took a light look at Cai Jinfo, and smiled faintly: "Famous masters in Nanyue, Chen Tang Fengyue, nothing more than Nanhai Tan family cuisine, and Jiang family Taishi cuisine, which one is your cooking skill from?"

Cai Jinfo's face turned serious, and his body suddenly became three points shorter: "My master is a descendant of the Tan family, and he learned Tan family cuisine."

"That's it." Li Changan stood up and glanced at the dishes on the table, and said with a smile, "Tan's cuisine used to be famous in the capital, and the shark's fin and bird's nest banquet was known as the best in the capital. I think your cooking looks like it, but the taste is good." , it's not far away."

Cai Jinfo was furious again, but the guest didn't dare to be too presumptuous after telling the story of his master's background.

Li Changan couldn't help but teach him a lesson: "Tan family cuisine is characterized by expensive ingredients, fresh and smooth, and the most original taste. You learn from the descendants of the Tan family, don't you know that the Tan family The dishes are never stir-fried, but only roasted, stewed, stewed, steamed, etc.? Those are all slow-cooked Kung Fu dishes.”

What Li Changan said made Shen Mengxun dumbfounded, and what he said made Cai Jinfo sweat profusely.

Li Chang'an sneered, "Look at the dishes on your table. They are too greasy and taste too heavy. The Tan family dishes I have eaten only use sugar and salt. Sweetness enhances freshness and saltiness enhances fragrance. No pepper and salt are used. MSG, there is a reason for this, it is called the golden mean, pay attention to avoiding excessive violence, and pursue peace..."

Shen Mengxun rubbed her forehead and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, Li Changan, you are my guest, not a cook who came to teach others how to cook."

Seeing that Li Changan was still angry, she couldn't help laughing: "It's a pity that our Senlan Girls' School doesn't have a course of cooking, otherwise it must be suitable for you to go."

Only then did Li Changan sit down slowly, looking at the "boiled cabbage in clear water" that had been eaten up, he felt very regretful for a moment.

As for Cai Jinfo, who bowed his head and didn't speak, there is only one word in his head now, and that is the word "serve" in capital letters.

He began to apologize in trepidation, and finally said in a low voice: "My master also mentioned my shortcomings in cooking, but I learned from his old man, and I only learned [-]% of all dishes. When I asked about the key points, master He shook his head again and refused to say..."

Cai Jinfo said, looking at Li Changan expectantly.

Li Changan smiled slightly: "That's because your master is too embarrassed to explain the truth. The founder of Tan Family Cuisine, Mr. Tan Zhengqing, was born in a family of officials and officials. He has elegant taste, but he is not good at cooking. He is really in charge of Tan Family Cuisine. But it's his third aunt."

Shen Mengxun listened at this moment: "The third aunt of the Tan family? Is there any other story here?"

However, Li Changan was caught in the memory: "Speaking of that time, I went to the family banquet in the Shuncai Hutong mansion in the capital to have the family banquet of the Tan family. The third aunt of the Tan family actually cooked the dishes. When the banquet day came, the third aunt would get up at dawn, Wearing a cheongsam, I took a rickshaw to the vegetable market to choose ingredients. It is very particular, you have to order dry goods from Guangzhou, Luzon yellow for shark fin, purple abalone for abalone, not too small or too big..."

With a plop, before Li Changan could finish speaking, Chef Cai Jinfo fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly.

Li Changan understood what he was thinking, and shook his head slightly: "You and I are not meant to be together, and besides, you are old, and it is difficult to get back your cooking skills, so let's be your chef with peace of mind..."

Cai Jinfo walked out of the East Lake Bieyuan with a face full of reluctance. When he went out, he had to look back, hoping to chat with Li Changan a little more. Just what Li Changan taught him just now has benefited him a lot.

In the villa, Shen Mengxun gave Li Changan a thumbs up: "Chef Cai is famous for his arrogant temper in Jiangning. He has to serve everyone well, so there is no one who dares to say that his food is not good. Today, you just say a few words I have to kneel and kowtow, I really admire you."

Li Chang'an asked her in a low voice: "The pot of boiled cabbage just now was made by Miss Yeyue, right? Has she stayed with you?"

Shen Mengxun pursed her lips and smiled: "Why, do you want to eat her cooking every day?"

Li Changan immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you."

Shen Mengxun was puzzled: "What are you thanking me for?"

Li Changan came over and said, "Didn't you just ask me to come to your place for dinner every day?"

Shen Mengxun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You are a bit shameless just for food."

……

After drinking tea after dinner, Li Changan got up to say goodbye.

With a mysterious smile, Shen Mengxun sent him to the door. When Li Changan turned to leave, this elegant and beautiful woman suddenly said: "Wait, I almost forgot, our old man asked me to give you a gift .”

The old man of the Shen family?
Li Changan shook his head repeatedly when he heard this: "No matter what the gift is, I won't take it. Miss Shen, please tell the old man. I thank him for his kindness."

Shen Mengxun blinked mischievously: "Hehe, you don't want it? Don't regret it then."

Li Changan was taken aback, but still sternly refused: "I really can't accept gifts. Behind this gift are all favors. I'm just too soft-hearted, and I've been dragged down by all kinds of favors, so I still can't finish it now."

Shen Mengxun pretended to sigh regretfully, but turned around and shouted to the room: "Yue, pack up and go back to Jingnan, Mr. Li doesn't want you."

With a click, a tile under Li Changan's feet was crushed by him. The man turned around stiffly, swallowed and asked, "Miss Shen, could it be the gift you mentioned just now?"

Shen Mengxun nodded solemnly: "Yes, the old man's gift is Ji Yeyue, don't you want it?"
