"Master. ”

Ye Feizhou entered the tea room, and asked with a twinkle in his eyes: "You told her about Chef Xia's whereabouts like this......"

"What, worried?"

The dragon head glanced at his apprentice strangely, and couldn't help laughing: "Feizhou, I didn't expect a competition, and you have been impressed by his cooking skills." The old man blinked, "Well, if you have a partner on the road, it is also a beautiful thing, in the past, you just lacked such a partner role who is also a teacher and a friend, and the outside world said that you were lonely and arrogant." ”

Ye Feizhou blushed and said, "Partner, that demon king doesn't need this kind of role, right?" ”

The old man shook his head, his eyes were deep, "No one wants to be more and more lonely as they go, so even if they reach the extreme, there is no one behind them to witness it, and no one shares the joy of reaching the top with themselves, so, is it interesting?"

He sighed.

"Don't talk about that. The old man waved his hand, "Lei Aoxue wants to open a fateful halberd for the Seven Star Knife, with that person's character, he may not pay attention to such a halberd request, wait for her to touch it." ”

Hearing this, Ye Feizhou's brows stretched. Although he didn't have much contact with Xia Yu, Ye Feizhou roughly understood what kind of person he was.

In a sense, he is as lazy as Li Han.

In other words, Xia Yu has never had much enthusiasm for this kind of thing, unless Lei Aoxue can arouse his interest.

What value does Lei Aoxue have that he should defeat?

Justifying the name of the Seven Star Knife?

It seems that this halberd motive does not exist.

Before leaving, Ye Feizhou paused, suddenly remembered something, turned his head to the leader of the tea and said, "By the way, the triennial selection of management rights in Ju Xialou will be carried out on the Lantern Festival after the Spring Festival, will the master still send me over to preside over the venue this time?"

The old man sat for a long time, obviously thinking about something.

"In the past three years, has Ju's downstairs business improved?"

Ye Feizhou's eyes showed a trace of imperceptible contempt, and replied: "This is the selection of each branch of their Liu clan, for a hundred years, the Liu family's lineage is considered to be in decline, the last selection, Liu Lan's team won the victory, Liu Lan himself is a special chef, but he does not have many helpers available, and only a drunkard special chef helper with a bad reputation in the local area is recruited everywhere, and Liu Lan's son who has devoted all his resources to cultivating was eliminated in the second round of auditions in this meeting......"

"So, in the past three years, I heard that not only has Ju Xialou's business not improved much, but his reputation in Jincheng has gradually deteriorated. ”

Saying that, Ye Feizhou looked cautious, observed the master's face, and saw that he was not angry, calm and calm, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Then, this year, you will continue to preside over the selection within the Liu clan for me. ”

"Good!"

……

The Chinese New Year is approaching!

This is also the reason why Xia Yu hurriedly returned to Shu after the hunting.

In the final analysis, the roots of the Xia clan are in Shu. And Xia Yuchang returned to China for the first time at such a big age, of course, he also wanted to see the Chinese homeland here and how the customs of the Spring Festival were different.

Get off the plane and take a taxi, as the car shuttles through the old city, a smell of sausages and bacon comes from the people on the street, Xia Yu takes two sips, and feels that he smells the smell of the New Year only in the land of China.

Walking in a relatively remote alley, it is not surprising that every house has a new couplet, and the laughter of children mixed with the sound of artillery comes together, and the residential area has lost its former tranquility, but it is also shrouded in a strong festive atmosphere.

"This is it, Xia's old mansion—"

Zhu Qing, who led the way, suddenly stopped and turned around and smiled.

Hey.

On the stone stairs in front of you, the door of the house is greatly open, and the human voice comes out from the patio.

Xia Yu stepped up, and the old man who heard the movement turned around, and the old man and the young man looked at each other.

"Coming back?"

Asked coolly.

"Hmm. Xia Yu replied, the suitcase was placed at the door, walked to the patio, and looked around, this is a rather classical house, there are several houses, two or three stories high, the stairs are located outside, the wooden structure, just look at the lacquer-colored staircase handrails, this can be seen that these houses are some years old.

It is rare to be able to keep such an antique old house in such a metropolis, this is one of Xia Yu's dreams in his previous life, a house with walls in the courtyard, raising cats and dogs, teasing birds and watering flowers, it is simply a new realm of the house.

At first sight, Xia Yu fell in love with this house.

"Not bad, not bad!"

Praise in quick succession.

Soon, he approached the old man, and saw that the old man was chopping pork, and a basin next to him was already filled with minced meat and mixed with spices, and a fermented aroma permeated, "Is this making sausages?"

Xia Yu pressed his chin, "Hey, I said old man, don't you get tired of eating pork sausages every year? ”

The old man put down his knife.

"Okay, you can get it!"

The tone was very refreshing, put down the knife, went to the well to get cold well water to wash his hands, and then found a smoking gun out of nowhere, squatted not far away, and watched the young man who was quickly busy with interest.

The old house has a special food storehouse, there is a three-story small building, and even the whole building is full of dusty tables and chairs, it can be seen that the old house of the Xia family was a family-style deep alley restaurant, but due to various reasons, only ten tables and chairs were placed outside to operate, and it has become a small restaurant with the nature of private dishes of the time-honored city brand, and there is no store signboard outside the door, hidden in the market.

Zhu Qing also came to help.

Making sausage food or something, for Xia Yu, who is highly proficient in "Dragon Roll Shark Fin Sausage", his skills in this dish are probably full.

In addition, with the assistance of the perfect spice skills, it was only half an hour, and the meat fillings of the two large pots of sausages were placed next to the patio, and the faint column-like spice smell that rose to the sky had to stay in the air for a long time.

Unlike traditional pork sausages, the thick umami flavor is mouth-watering.

"Wow-"

A few children at the door, obviously attracted by the aroma, hid there to probe their brains.

"This kid, show off his skills everywhere!" Xia Qing spit out a circle of smoke, the cigarette gun knocked on the green bricks on the ground, and planned to go back to the house, but the young man on the other end was still not enough, "Hey, old man, do you have any New Year's food to prepare?"

"The ingredients are all in the warehouse, you just watch it!"

Cracking sound.

Two days later, in the evening, the sound of firecrackers came from the old house, a very short firecracker. After the old man offered incense in front of the ancestral hall, he looked back at Xia Yu and Zhu Qingzhangluo's large table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and couldn't help but show a soft smile.

It's not just Xia Yu, this is also Xia Qing's return to his homeland for a traditional festival after he went abroad with hatred in the early years.

"Ha, here it is, the last pot of medicinal fish soup, a special offer for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner-" Xia Yu smiled and put down the steaming casserole, and untied his apron, Zhu Qing's eyes lit up, and he raised his eyebrows with joy, "Ah Yu Ah Yu, is this the cooking work you came up with in the battle of Hunting Heavenly King Mountain?"

"Yes, it's called Big Fish!"

Xia Yu replied, seeing Zhu Qing yelling and taking the bowl and spoon, he grabbed her wrist with a smile, "Don't worry, this soup must be used as a finishing touch in the banquet, you treat it as an appetizer soup, and then eat other dishes to ensure that you taste the same as chewing wax." ”

Zhu Qing was grabbed by his wrist, and inexplicably, his whole body trembled.

Her eyes sparkled at Xia Yu's hand.

"Take it, take it away......"

"What?"

"Take away your groping hands!" a tingling scalp.

"What is a groping pig hand, I call it ...... Ugh!"

Suddenly, Xia Yu came back to his senses, and caught a glimpse of the flush on Zhu Qing's side cheeks, and then the flush flashed on his ears and neck, and his skin was as red as a boiled shrimp, and he knew that something was wrong.
