Zhuang Daozhong was a little surprised, he received a call from Su Jinrong.

This was actually a bit unexpected by the old man, Zhuang Daozhong originally thought that Su Jinrong would not come forward about the matter of the two chefs, but completely handed it over to his son-in-law.

Patiently listened to Su Jinrong on the phone, and explained the location and method of the kitchen.

Zhuang Daozhong was a little surprised again: "Jin Rong, are you sure that you want a group of children to decide?"

Su Jinrong responded on the phone: "Yes, if it is Ruoruo's birthday, let Ruoruo call the shots." ”

Zhuang Daozhong hesitated for a moment, but still said: "However, Jinrong, you should understand that children's preferences are not easy to grasp, and it may be just a little trick that will attract children's likes." ”

Su Jinrong continued: "Also, you and I, let Su Lanxin come up with one person and three judges. ”

Zhuang Daozhong pondered for a moment, and then understood: "Jinrong, I understand what you mean, the theme is Children's Day, it is Ruoruo's birthday, the first thing to do is that the children like it, and then the three of us will judge the result." ”

Su Jinrong responded again: "Yes." ”

Zhuang Daozhong pondered seriously for a moment, and felt that this method seemed to be indeed feasible: "Well, this method is okay, I will tell Lan Xin that girl, but you have to wait for the results over there to decide." ”

Su Jinrong responded again: "Okay." ”

After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Daozhong originally wanted to call, but after thinking about staying in a hotel with Su Lanxin, he went downstairs to find Su Lanxin.

Su Lanxin also had just finished the morning meeting and was listening to the secretary's arrangement for the Fujinglou competition in the room.

Now because of the participation of the Provincial Catering Association, the secretary will represent Su Lanxin's company and contact with the Catering Association, so some things must be reflected and determined clearly with Su Lanxin.

Zhuang Daozhong's arrival made Su Lanxin feel good immediately.

"Uncle Shi, you are here, it looks like my eldest brother and they should agree to the kitchen? Tell me, what are their conditions?"

The secretary was also a little surprised when he saw Mr. Su's smile on his face.

You must know that before Old Man Zhuang came, Su Lanxin almost didn't have a smiling face.

Zhuang Daozhong sat down and told Su Lanxin about the way Su Jinrong told him about the cooking and the way of the review.

After listening to this, the secretary was surprised again, and the secretary also had a hard time understanding, why did the chef let a group of children decide?

Fortunately, Mr. Zhuang also said it later, and he came forward to serve as a judge with Su Jinrong, and Su Lanxin also needed a reviewer.

Su Lanxin was silent for a moment, thought about it carefully, and said, "Well, this way of comparing cooking is very peculiar, I didn't expect that my eldest brother's son-in-law was still a daughter slave." ”

The secretary heard Su Lanxin say this, and after thinking about it carefully, it seems that Feng Yifan is really a daughter slave.

Since he came back, the secretary made a secret observation according to Su Lanxin's arrangement, and it was obvious that the little girl was Feng Yifan's absolute backlash and one of his weaknesses.

But the secretary didn't dare to touch the little girl on her own initiative.

Not to mention that Su Lanxin would not agree, just said that seeing Feng Yifan's thick arms and such a strong body, I am afraid that ordinary people are really not his opponents.

Even this time the chef, for such a big thing, he even had to let his daughter be the judge, which is too much to spoil his daughter.

Thinking of this, the secretary suddenly couldn't help but feel that with such a father, his daughter would definitely be very happy.

The secretary had some envy for the little girl in her heart.

Su Lanxin said after some calculation at this time: "Okay, since my eldest brother is willing to do this, then I have no opinion, I will be the judge on our side, and let Su Ji's two generations of sons-in-law try it." ”

Zhuang Daozhong's expression was a little complicated when he heard this.

The secretary was a little surprised when he heard this.

This is the first time that Mr. Su will admit in front of people for so many years that Chen Wei used to be her husband.

Zhuang Daozhong sighed and said: "I really didn't expect that Su Ji would have a day when his own people competed with his own people, obviously a family, why does it have to be like this?"

Su Lanxin looked at her uncle, and her expression also became a little complicated.

After being silent for a moment, Su Lanxin said: "Perhaps, since Chen Wei and I left with a group of senior brothers, this is already doomed. ”

Zhuang Daozhong then asked: "So, where did they go when they left Su Ji with you back then?"

Su Lanxin was caught in deep thought by this.

Thoughts went back to the past, when Su Lanxin and Chen Wei decided to leave Su Ji, and then anxiously asked a group of brothers to have a discussion.

In the end, seven of Su Lanxin's father's top ten disciples chose to leave together.

Counting Chen Wei, the senior brother, it is equivalent to saying that Su Lanxin's father's apprentice has gone eight.

When a group of them left Su Ji, they first chose to go north and went to the capital to find their uncle. Su Lanxin came forward to ask her uncle for help and let them open a small restaurant in the capital.

For a while, Su Lanxin and her brothers really looked like they were going to be famous.

But later, as the brothers got married one after another, some of everyone's ideas began to deviate.

Especially Chen Wei, the senior brother, was not a master after all, and Chen Wei did not really achieve any great fame at that time, let alone the opportunity to participate in large banquets.

To put it bluntly, Chen Wei and they can no longer use Su Ji's name, they may be really good at cooking, but they still can't enter the large-scale banquet cuisine.

Don't say that you are going to a state banquet, even some banquets of some grades may not look for Chen Wei and them.

Over time, the contradictions between the brothers gradually became bigger.

Some juniors and disciples felt that staying in Chen Wei and Su Lanxin's small restaurant was too restrictive.

They want to go to a well-known restaurant, even if they start from scratch, at least they have the opportunity to accumulate qualifications, and then have some recommendation opportunities in the restaurant, maybe they can go to more banquets in the future.

In the end, almost all of the juniors and disciples chose to leave.

That was the second time that everyone separated after they left Su Ji together.

The brothers have parted ways.

Five of them chose to go to a well-known restaurant in the capital, and chose to go to the restaurant to experience and accumulate opportunities.

The other is to choose to go back to his hometown and open his own restaurant.

Su Lanxin knew that the five brothers who entered the big restaurant in the capital also left the capital one after another, and they still failed to make a name for themselves in the capital, so they naturally had to go elsewhere.

After so many years, now that Old Man Zhuang asked, Su Lanxin actually didn't know, where did those senior brothers go back then?

"Maybe Chen Wei will have a connection with them. ”

When Zhuang Daozhong heard this, he also sighed and shook his head and said, "Back then, except for you who came to me once, and then there were so many of your brothers and sisters, none of them came to me. ”

Su Lanxin smiled bitterly and said, "Those senior brothers, after all, still feel that they are like betraying their masters, and they are embarrassed to see you." ”

Zhuang Daozhong also smiled helplessly: "It seems that you hurt them back then." ”

Su Lanxin was a little unconvinced and said: "It's them who want to leave, if they are willing to keep me and Chen Wei all the time, they should have a good prospect now, at least they can be the head chef of the top restaurants under our group company." ”

Zhuang Daozhong shook his head and said, "So what? Are those senior brothers of yours going to your father's to learn cooking for this?"

Su Lanxin naturally understood that none of them were either, so she chose to remain silent.

Zhuang Daozhong then said: "Since you senior brothers haven't seen each other for many years, then I'll find another one to come over, the youngest senior brother of you and Jinrong, he is now on my side, I called him over." ”

Su Lanxin was a little surprised: "Senior Brother Shi went to you in the end?"

The senior brother Shi in Su Lanxin's mouth is the youngest apprentice her father accepted in addition to their brothers and sisters, and his full name is "Shi Jinbin".

At the beginning, Su Lanxin also wanted to call him along, but Shi Jinbin finally refused and chose to stay in Su Ji.

Zhuang Daozhong said very calmly: "Maybe you don't know that Shi Jinbin is the only apprentice who sent your father on his last journey besides your eldest brother. ”

Shi Jinbin has always taken turns serving Su Jinrong when Old Man Su was seriously ill, and the two of them also supported Su Ji together.

Later, the old man passed away, Zhuang Daozhong came to mourn, originally wanted to ask Su Jinrong to go north with him, but Su Jinrong was unwilling to give up Su Ji's old shop, and he couldn't let go of his wife and children at home.

In the end, Su Jinrong gave Shi Jinbin the opportunity to go north.

Zhuang Daozhong looked at Su Lanxin and said, "If the stone knew about your return, I'm afraid I would have come to you and Chen Wei to fight hard." ”

Su Lanxin was stunned when she heard this, and there was really a trace of fear in her eyes.

She knows very well that Shi Jinbin is a very jealous and hateful person. Although he usually doesn't talk much, if he is really ruthless, maybe the ten brothers will not be as good as him at the beginning.

Su Lanxin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Senior Brother Shi, he is ...... now"

Zhuang Daozhong did not hide it, and replied directly: "He is now one of the sous chefs of the 'Red Maple Hotel' in the capital. ”

Su Lanxin was stunned again, the reputation of the Red Maple Hotel in the capital was really very loud. The key is that the Red Maple Hotel may be the only restaurant in Beijing that can cook state banquet dishes.

In addition, the state banquet dishes of the Red Maple Hotel are authorized, that is, the Red Maple Hotel is allowed to operate the state banquet dishes to the outside world.

Even Su Lanxin knew that the prices of the dishes in the Red Maple Restaurant were all fixed, and they were not allowed to be changed easily.

Zhuang Daozhong is the real executive chef of Red Maple Hotel, but it seems that he has retired over the years to become the restaurant's menu consultant.

What Su Lanxin didn't expect was that her youngest senior brother was now one of the sous chefs over there.

This also shows that Shi Jinbin has participated in state banquets.

Zhuang Daozhong guessed Su Lanxin's thoughts, and gave the answer she wanted: "Shi Jinbin participated in the state banquet. ”

Su Lanxin understood, and at the same time, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: I didn't expect that among so many apprentices of my father, in the end, it was Shi Jinbin, who was not too favored by everyone at the beginning, who participated in the state banquet.

Zhuang Daozhong confirmed to Su Lanxin again: "Do you want me to call Shi Jinbin?"

Su Lanxin was stunned for a moment, looking at Uncle Shi's serious expression, she also guessed what Uncle Shi meant. Call Shi Jinbin to come, and Uncle Shi should explain the situation.

Then Shi Jinbin is here, and he will definitely trouble Su Lanxin and Chen Wei.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Lanxin said solemnly: "Since you have said it, Uncle Shi, let's invite Senior Brother Shi to come once, we haven't seen each other for many years, so many senior brothers, I'm afraid he is the only one who can be seen." ”

Zhuang Daozhong nodded: "Okay, I'll call him back." ”

Then, Zhuang Daozhong said: "Since this is the case, then I think your competition will be judged by me, you, Jin Rong and Jin Bin, is it okay?"

Su Lanxin nodded: "Okay." ”

Zhuang Daozhong stood up after saying this, and glanced at Su Lanxin deeply: "I hope that after this time, the grievances between you will be settled, and you will have more important things to do next." ”

Su Lanxin also stood up and nodded: "Okay, I also hope that the grievance can be resolved." ”

After a slight pause, Su Lanxin asked again: "Senior Uncle, if Senior Brother Shi comes, can he be a judge of this cooking competition?"

Zhuang Daozhong smiled and said, "You can ask him yourself about this then." ”

After that, Zhuang Daozhong also left the room.

After Zhuang Daozhong left, Su Lanxin thought about it and called Chen Wei and told Chen Wei about the matter.

Chen Wei learned that such a kitchen competition, especially to please a group of kindergarten children, made him feel a little childish.

However, when I heard that there was also Uncle Shi coming forward as the final judge, I also accepted it.

Immediately afterwards, hearing Shi Jinbin's news, Chen Wei was also a little surprised.

Holding the phone and stunned for a long time, Chen Wei sighed: "I really didn't expect that in the end, among our senior brothers, it was Shi Jinbin, who has always been looked down upon by our senior brothers, who succeeded." ”

After hearing Chen Wei's sigh, Su Lanxin asked again: "Chen Wei, do you have any other contact information for senior brothers?"

Chen Wei said directly: "If you need it, I can contact four people, and I can't contact the others." ”

Su Lanxin was silent for a while, and finally said: "Okay, you can find them all, let's finish this time, and finally take a look at who should inherit Su Ji's old plaque." ”

Chen Wei really shook his head silently when he heard this, knowing that Su Lanxin still couldn't let go of this knot in the end.

But after thinking about it, Chen Weiyou felt that this might be an opportunity for Su Lanxin to completely untie this knot. He agreed, "Okay, I'll try to contact them and hope they can come." ”

Hanging up the phone, Su Lanxin suddenly felt in a good mood, and had a feeling that she could finally prove herself.

This time, she can prove to all her brothers, including her uncle, that her father's choice was wrong.

Thinking of this, Su Lanxin's expression became very excited.

The secretary couldn't help but be a little worried when he saw Mr. Su's face full of excitement: "Mr. Su, are you okay?"

Su Lanxin looked at the secretary with a smile and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine, you go, just follow what we discussed, go and talk to the restaurant association, in short, remember one thing, you have to use the momentum of the competition to push Fujinglou." ”

The secretary hesitated, but saw that Mr. Su had already stood up and walked towards the bedroom of the suite. She could only get up and leave to prepare to talk to the restaurant association.

Su Lanxin entered the room, locked the door of the room, sat in front of the dressing mirror, and smiled at herself in the mirror.

"Finally, the day has come to prove to them who is the most qualified person to inherit the plaque. ”
