“…… That Liu Lan?"

"He, five or six years older than me, is only in the middle of the Chinese world, and his cooking talent is only in the middle, and it is best described as mediocre. But Ah Yu, do you know, this is what can be mediocre, among the chefs of the Liu clan in Shudi, the cooking skills belong to the top grade, otherwise, why did he win the last selection and get the right to operate Ju Xialou?"

Ju went downstairs.

In the lobby with only one table of guests, Zhu Qing did not deliberately hide his voice and answered Xia Yu's question.

Xia Yu's eyes flickered.

Mediocre.

This word can summarize Zhu Qing's description of Liu Lan.

But it's just a mediocre chef, the proprietor and head chef of Naiju's downstairs, and his success doesn't show the twilight of the Liu clan in Shudi?

Sitting and waiting, Xia Yu asked Zhu Qing for more information.

If you want to say that this chrysanthemum goes downstairs, a hundred years ago, it was originally a state-owned restaurant, and the shell fairy only had the right to operate, not to possess.

Later, Liu Pleiades rose, Ju downstairs became Liu's private property, Liu Pleiades is a contemporary Junjie, but he likes to travel the world is not a qualified operator, and his sister Liu Jinling, when Liu Pleiades traveled all over the world, he simply supported the huge chrysanthemum downstairs alone.

Later, it was the story of Zhu Qi, one of the five tiger stars in the dark culinary world, and Liu Jinling, who became acquainted, and the couple then jointly operated Ju Xialou, and Ju Xialou's status was stabilized in the Chinese world.

In fact, the clan surnamed Liu in Shuchuan today is the descendants of Zhu Qi and Liu Jinling, not Liu Yuexing. Liu Pleiades and Zhao Meili are simply fairy couples, leaving no heirs.

Talking about Liu and Zhu, Zhu Qing's face was complicated.

“…… They gave birth to two sons and two daughters, and the daughters were all surnamed Zhu, but the sons, one surnamed Zhu and the other surnamed Liu, so the surnames Zhu and Liu branched out in Shu. The branch surnamed Zhu, more inherited is the resources and cooking skills of Zhu Qi's ancestors, and the surname Liu, among the things that can be inherited, includes Ju downstairs!"

Xia Yu was stunned when he heard this.

Liu Pleiades and Zhao Meili have no heirs, and the Liu clan in Shu today is actually the descendants of Zhu Qi and Liu Jinling, and this news shocked Xia Yu a lot.

"What about Aunt Qing......" he opened his mouth.

Zhu Qing smiled and said: "What do you think, I am a member of the Zhu clan, I told you more than once when I was in Dongying, your mother is the descendant of Zhu Qi and Liu Jinling, and she has outstanding qualifications, so she combined with your father to give birth to such a Xia Demon King." ”

"Isn't that right, how can a mortal give birth to a demon king?"

Xia Yu Waterfall Khan.

"Get out!" he rolled his eyes wildly and glared back at Zhu Qing's mischievous eyes, "You can't be serious for me, this is a very serious topic!"

"Okay, serious!"

In an instant, Zhu Qing's face changed, and his eyes were fixed and stared straight at him.

"Say it......"

She said faintly, "You have always cared about Zhu Liu, your life experience or anything before, this time you took the initiative to mention it, what is the reason......?

Syllable!

The sound of snapping his fingers, Xia Yu's smile became meaningful:

"It seems that this year's Lantern Festival is when the clan surnamed Liu holds a new selection for management rights......"

Zhu Qing's pupils shrank.

"You know all this?"

She was a little incredulous, "Where did you hear that, I didn't tell you about it!"

Xia Yu just smiled mysteriously.

"Because, I have a system. He added inwardly, and turned his head to Ju downstairs in the back kitchen, looking over, his eyes sparkling, and it was clear that he had made a decision.

……

rear kitchen.

Liu Lan, the chef downstairs, was sweating, cooking a pot of mapo tofu.

"Daddy, slow down!

His son Liu Jing was beside him, and when he saw that his father was not as calm as usual, he couldn't help but whisper a reminder.

"First taste, spicy!"

"Give me the sauce!"

Liu Lan said in a low voice.

"Daddy, give-"

Swish.

The kitchen is covered with the smell of chili peppers.

It just so happened that Xia Yu and Zhu Qing walked in and saw the scene of Liu Lan cooking.

I have to say that Liu Lan can no longer be mediocre, but as the saying goes, diligence can make up for clumsiness, his cooking techniques can be called thousands of tempers, the six-flavor cooking process of "Magic Mapo Tofu" is in full swing, without a trace of dragging, until a whole plate of tofu is out of the pot and put on the plate, Liu Lan slowed down the rhythm slightly, "Give me green garlic!"

Son Liu Jing hurriedly put on the plate.

As a result, a plate of red oil mapo has more green garlic, and the color level is deeper and richer.

"What the hell is a chef ......?"

Xia Yu bowed slightly.

The rookie and the chef in the kitchen can be identified at a glance just by looking at the temperament of the food when cooking.

In Liu Lan's body, what Xia Yu saw was old and spicy and calm, once the bow was opened, it was like an arrow off the string, pointing directly at the target and never looking back.

As for the other side, Xia Yu turned around and looked at it, stunned.

Little Lori Liu Ying has to stand on a stool to be able to hold the heavy spatula and move normally on the stove.

Different from the Western-style kitchen, the back kitchen downstairs of Juxia, all the facilities are Chinese, the stove is square, the iron pot is big and heavy, and the cooking tools, such as spatulas and pots and spoons, are black and thick, and adults are still tight when they wield it, and a small point with a height of only Xia Yu's chest dances very calmly.

"Bang-"

At this time, as soon as the spatula was thrown, Liu Ying sniffed the mist coming from the cauldron, her pink cheeks were happy, she jumped on the stove and squatted down, opened the lid with one hand, and the fragrance suddenly poured out.

Xia Yu sniffed a hint and his eyebrows jumped.

Elegant and mellow, like the taste of red wine, a trace can enter the throat and intestines, making people intoxicated.

Vaguely, Xia Yu seemed to see the flash of the "treasure".

"This little kid, it's not just shouting!" He couldn't help but be surprised, from the basic skills of cooking, the spoon, the pot, and the use of ingredients, Liu Ying's excellence is by no means something that can be reached at this age, and there is a level of hunting heroes.

"Alright—"

Liu Ying seemed to have a bowl of soup, but the smoke cleared, and on the kitchen counter, there was a large bowl of ramen.

She snorted and shouted to Liu Lan, "Are you okay?"

The appearance of teeth and claws, this is the performance of the problem Lori.

Liu Lan had already waited for her, and when she heard this, she just smiled and shook her head, as usual, she looked honest, but Xia Yu noticed a hint of appreciation and doting when he looked at Lori.

"Are you okay?, don't be verbose, just follow the usual rules and taste each other!"

Liu Ying brought the freshly made ramen to the table.

A bowl of ramen and a plate of mapo tofu are full of Chinese style.

Liu Lan noticed Xia Yu and Zhu Qing who had entered the kitchen, and opened their mouths to say hello, but Xia Yu suddenly spoke:

"Actually, the winner is obvious. ”

His gaze swept to Liu Ying, who was standing at the dining table with his arms crossed, "You lost." ”
