I open a restaurant in Xiujie

Uncle Wang's words were indeed true. After waiting for only a cup of tea, Bai Junda ran over from the door, shouting, "Yu Xiaotan, someone is looking for—"

After getting an affirmative answer from Yu Xiaotan, not long after, he led in a man in Tsing Yi from the entrance of the restaurant.

The man in Tsing Yi still had a loose posture, his clothes were fluttering, neat as new, but the aura around him was faintly different from usual.

Yu Xiaotan glanced a few more times curiously.He is not familiar with such things as fighting, but Uncle Wang understood what happened after just one glance, he shook his head and smiled, "What's the matter, are you so angry?"

"Don't mention it," the man in Tsing Yi said angrily, "A bunch of ugly-looking things, it's embarrassing."

Uncle Wang said: "It's no wonder they are. Our young master said, 'If people do not do things for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them', I think it is very true."

The man in Tsing Yi curled his lips: "The fairy chef is not like this."

Uncle Wang shook his head: "You can't expect everyone to be a chef."

The two of you spoke to each other, although the voice was flat, but the faint smell of gunpowder still lingered in the small courtyard.Fortunately, Yu Xiaotan returned from the kitchen at this time. He didn't find the hammer, so he took a rolling pin, swished it a few times in the air, and smashed it heavily on the still hot mud ball.

With a "bang", the dried mud ball fell apart.

A strong, almost drowning fragrance filled the entire courtyard in an instant.

The attention of the man in Tsing Yi and Uncle Wang was drawn back immediately, they watched Yu Xiaotan pull the mud away, revealing the lotus leaves that were already as soft as a thin layer of paper.The fragrance is dense and lingering, and in an instant, it brings people back to the early summer when the water is shining, and the pointed little lotus is as round as a cattail, and it smudges on the lake.

Only this time, the lotus leaves are not wrapped in flower buds and lotus pods.

The leaf spread out, revealing the whole chicken that had been roasted until it was golden.It has a faint golden light all over its body, the chicken oil permeates from the inside out, it looks smooth and bright, and the scent is alluring and pierces into the nostrils, even the tricky guy in Tsing Yi subconsciously rolls his Adam's apple few times.

When Yu Xiaotan prepared the sauce for the marinated chicken, he added a small amount of powder mixed with various spices.

As the powder is kneaded, it seeps into the texture of the chicken, and gradually emits a multi-layered flavor in the roasting wrapped in lotus leaves and soil, but all the flavors are sealed by the dried mud shell, and there is no way to leak it out, so I just I can drill deep into the chicken with all my strength, and soak every inch of its tender meat and white tendons with a strong spicy flavor.

Then, the moment the mud shell shattered, it exploded in the small courtyard like a small spice bomb.

The man in Tsing Yi was looking at the mud ball, and wanted to complain about "not round enough", but at this moment he couldn't say anything, the strong fragrance occupied all his mind, and the long-lost appetite was jumping wildly in his stomach , pushing him, urging him: eat, eat it quickly!

So delicious!

It almost penetrates into the bones, and even the bones are soft!

The man in Tsing Yi froze in place, silently swallowing saliva in his throat.He was very greedy, but his strong self-esteem did not allow him to go forward to grab food, so he watched Yu Xiaotan put on his gloves and gently tore off a crispy and tender chicken leg——

Then put it on a plate and hand it to Uncle Wang.

The man in Tsing Yi: "..."

The face of the man in Tsing Yi suddenly became very unhappy: "You...you are not serious about hospitality."

Shouldn't the first meal be given to him as a guest?

Yu Xiaotan hooked the corners of his lips, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, but our rule here is to first get old and then young."

As he spoke, he took another porcelain plate, tore off another chicken leg and put it on the plate, and handed it to the man in Tsing Yi: "Here, yours."

The man in Tsing Yi looked better now.

He couldn't wait to grab the chicken leg, and before he could eat it, he already had a premonition of the tenderness of the chicken from the luster of the fresh meat.

Think about how effortlessly Yu Xiaotan pulled the chicken leg just now. The chicken has been roasted until it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. , as if glowing.

When it was eaten into the mouth, it was even more crispy and tender, and the man in Tsing Yi chewed it, wanting to chew off his own tongue.

It is smooth, tender, and in the unique fatness of the meat, there is both the umami taste of soy sauce and the strong aroma of spices. After chewing carefully for a few times, you can faintly taste the fragrance of lotus leaves. The unique flavor turns into a surge in the mouth The hot flow, and at the moment of swallowing the stomach, caught off guard, it set off a fire that went straight to the sky.

After the red chicken has been washed off all its feathers, the red color of the meat is no longer visible.

But the brilliant aura that seemed to burn the sky melted into its body, and was wrapped in Yu Xiaotan's spiritual power, enriched in sauce, and covered with layers of lotus leaves and mud.

It is like a star falling into the mortal world, a phoenix falling into the mire, silently enduring and waiting, just for the final moment——

The man in Tsing Yi seemed to see a light in front of his eyes!

Such a rich and dazzling luster made his eye sockets a little sour.In the depths of the light is a vast wilderness, standing on the wilderness is a thin figure, his face is blurred and cannot be seen clearly, but he easily overturned the huge red bird whistling in the sky, carried it on his shoulder, and turned his head to smile at him.

"Man, that's what it is."

"Born in the mud, but I can grow a soft heart, always with an indomitable will."

He dragged Chiniao's huge body like a mountain, and his faint voice floated in the breeze: "Like the weed seeds scattered all over the mountains and rivers, even if the fire burns, as long as one day you hear the sound of the wind—look."

The eyes of the man in Tsing Yi fell on his palm, where there was a pool of burnt plant ash, but facing the direction of the wind, the cluster of dust suddenly flew slowly, wings sprouted in midair, and turned into a group of crimson red birds.

The birds circled around him, singing, and the mountains and plains seemed to return to spring in an instant. The water surface in the pond was splashed with ripples, and the faint, clear and ethereal lotus fragrance wafted in the air.

One chicken leg was eaten in two or three bites.

The man in Tsing Yi's vision was blurred, he raised his head slowly, remained silent for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh.

The mood is indescribably complicated, sore and numb, and it seems to be pressed by some heavy and unknown things.

He raised his hand to grab the direction of the plate, just about to eat a few more mouthfuls of this delicious beggar chicken, but suddenly found that the whole chicken that was still whole and tender on the plate was now only left with a few pieces hanging here and there. Chicken skeleton with shredded meat.

Beside the dining table, Yu Xiaotan, Uncle Wang, and Bai Junda were holding a plate each, feasting on it.

The man in Tsing Yi: "..."

The man in Tsing Yi, who had been deeply touched just now, suddenly broke away from the spiritual world he was immersed in. His face flushed with anger, and he kept yelling: "Where's the chicken? Where's my chicken?"

I'm so big, so how about a whole plate of chicken?

He ate a chicken leg in total!

"Oh, seeing your frowning appearance, I thought you didn't like food."

Beside the dining table, Bai Junda muttered, but it didn't affect him to gobble it up: "Why don't you eat quickly if you like you, our family has to rely on robbing for food, you know?"

The man in Tsing Yi: "..."

The man in Tsing Yi smelled the aroma of chicken wafting in the air, looked at the tender chicken on other people's plates, and then looked at a leftover chicken bone on his own plate, and suddenly the veins on his forehead jumped up.

The worst part was that he watched Uncle Wang not only eating by himself, but also throwing a chicken leg under the table!

The chicken leg was caught by an invisible thing, and it was gnawed clean, even the bones were not spared. It sucked out all the bone marrow inside, and when it was spit out, it was just a piece of residue.

Cleaner than squeezing through a blender.

The man in Tsing Yi was at war with heaven and man, hesitating whether to take the remaining skeletons and gnaw on them.Fortunately, Yu Xiaotan finally let him go—the boy returned to the kitchen, and after a while, he brought out another mud pill.

"I know that one is not enough for you," Yu Xiaotan said with a smile, "Come on, make more than one, eat slowly."

In an instant, it seemed that the sun shone into the courtyard, and the man in Tsing Yi felt very relieved. Looking at Yu Xiaotan's fair side face, he suddenly felt that the boy in front of him had become much cuter.

……

Guanghuazhai in the east of the city is in a mess.

The magnificent two-story building is crooked, like a funny unfinished building. The foot of the building on the west side collapsed completely, and a large hole as high as a person was broken in the wall. Breaking all the shackles set by the formation.

And those decorations used to carry the formation were shattered into pieces after being hit by a strong impact, turning into clouds of sand and dust floating in the air.

Looking at all this, Wang Quwen's heart ached to the point of bleeding.

She finally set foot on the right restaurant, and she didn't know how long it would take to rebuild it. In this critical stage of the sprint, there may be a huge gap in the number of customers every day!

"Elder!"

Wang Quwen held back a man who was in a state of embarrassment in the smoke and dust, her eyes were red and her voice was trembling: "What's going on, how did it become like this?"

It was clearly said to be an early assessment and test, but why did it suddenly become a grand banquet?

The elder was ashamed, with a purple scar on his face, as if he had been slapped, the injury was not serious, and the humiliation was extremely strong.

His mood was also extremely bad, and after pushing Wang Quwen away, he cursed in a low voice: "You asked for it?"

"It was already decided that the assessment will be conducted in the restaurant of that girl Zirong. With his direct blood, maybe he won't be so shameless... Sigh, it was you who reported it to the elders, and you said it was your Dong Zhai. The environment is better, the hospitality is more thoughtful, and the culinary skills are stronger, which made us choose Dongzhai by chance."

"We didn't expect him to be so strong, so strong that it doesn't make sense at all."

"If this matter is successful, you must have credit for it, but now people are running away... Sigh, girl, you should apologize to the elders earlier!"

After finishing speaking, the elder covered his face with his sleeve and left without looking back.

Only Wang Quwen was left standing in the mess on the ground, startled and astonished, her lips clenched tightly in embarrassment.

"...Am I wrong?"

She murmured silently, her heart seemed to be grasped by an invisible big hand, and it was empty like never before.

The image of a strong woman who has always supported the backbone suddenly collapsed like a sand tower under the indifferent words of the elders, "Apologize to the elders."

I just want to show my face in front of the elders more, I just want to leave a preconceived impression on the assessment team, I just want to gain a little upper hand in this assessment...

For this reason, she has exhausted her tricks and resorted to frequent methods, and she has not been able to sleep peacefully for an unknown number of days.

She just... wants to win.

Is this wrong?
