59. Inner ghost

Everyone quieted down, looking curiously at this little girl who was only as tall as King Qi's shoulders, I don't know what amazing words she would say, but I didn't expect Ning Xi to clear her throat, but what she said was not her Shuangxi Building: "Everyone has seen the dish of chicken marrow bamboo shoots presented by Pin Xianju, right?" There are many people who have even tasted it, I wonder if everyone thinks it tastes good? ”

Everyone didn't know why, but they still told the truth: "The creativity is unique, the taste is delicious, and it is indeed a rare delicacy." ”

"So do you know what the ingredients are for this dish and how they are made?"

"The recipe of the dish is a secret that the chef does not pass on, how can it be known at will!"

"But not only do I know how to do it, just a few days ago, I also made it myself, and I plan to use it to make the dishes of the competition at today's food conference!"

This sentence is like pouring a spoonful of cold water into a hot oil pan and exploding the pot with a bang.

In the midst of everyone's discussions, Ning Xi said: "If I say it casually, everyone must not be convinced, then, I want to invite the chef of Pin Xianju to come up, let's make this dish in public, and then let everyone taste it, who is doing it well!" ”

"Good!" The guests who were not afraid of big things were coaxed and looked at Li Shaoming, the young owner of Pinxian Ju.

Li Shaoming's face was pale, and he was about to open his mouth to refuse, but Ning Xi said another sentence on it: "Could it be that the chef of your Xianju knows that he has secretly learned other people's dishes, and he doesn't have the courage to come out?" ”

Li Shaoming took the case: "Compare and compare, who is afraid of whom, when we were famous in the capital, you yellow-haired girl was still drinking milk in her mother's arms, don't think that it would be great to be able to cook a few dishes, and dare to say that right and wrong are not ashamed." ”

Ning Xi said leisurely: "Then let's see who is reversing right and wrong!" ”

The people of the Qi Wangfu were very efficient, and in the blink of an eye, a vacant space was cleared in the lobby, and two long tables were placed, a stove, and a large cauldron was set on the stove, and all kinds of ingredients on the table were also prepared.

Ning Xi tightened his sleeves and occupied a long case with the chef of the Xianju house, standing opposite each other.

King Qi personally announced: "Begin!" ”

Ning Xi lowered his head slightly, and began to get busy in an orderly manner, cooking bamboo shoots, picking up chicken, chopping mushrooms, one by one, unhurriedly, and at a glance, he knew that he was completely in the chest.

The chef on the other side of the restaurant is obviously inferior, always picking up one thing and putting it down in a hurry, turning his head to get another, and raising his sleeves from time to time to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. People who have been to Pinxian House to eat before have a deep sense of being deceived.

I saw Ning Xi's fingers dexterous, flying up and down, using silver needles to cut the jade finger bamboo shoots one by one, stuffing in the chopped filling, and then posing on the plate to make a good-looking shape, although her movements are not fast, but the posture is beautiful, and the people who watch it do not feel anxious, but patiently enjoy her calm performance.

Somehow, Jun Qianyu actually had a sense of pride in his heart, a sense of accomplishment similar to the child he brought out to shine in front of others, and he couldn't wait to pull others and say, look, my child, how powerful!

After a competition, there is almost no need to look at the final result, who is the original and who is the copy, it has long been clear at a glance, not to mention that after Ningxi's chicken pith bamboo shoots were tasted by everyone, they were unanimously recognized that the products of Pin Xianju were indeed much better.

Ning Xi said loudly: "Pin Xianju has committed such a despicable act at the food conference, stealing other people's ideas and copying other people's dishes, and the folk girl is here to beg the prince to give the folk daughter justice!" ”

King Qi stood up and announced: "Pinxianju has broken the rules of the food conference and acted despicably, and Pinxianju will be permanently sealed from now on, and it will not be allowed to open again!" ”

Li Shaoming stood up suddenly, stared at Ning Xi who was standing beside King Qi, his face was pale, and there were bursts of hatred in his eyes, and finally, he slammed his fist and strode out.

Although Ningxi's water chestnut porridge was approved by the princess, only half of the people who were scheduled to offer the dishes were offered, and half of them were waiting, so it was impossible for people to prepare hard for a long time, and finally leave without doing anything, so the king of Qi gave an order, and the food conference continued.

King Qi personally asked people to set up a small table next to the main table and invited Ning Xi to sit down, which is a great honor for a cook, and it is a recognition that many people can't get for their hard work.

After that, Ning Xi was fortunate to get a share of each dish offered, and he also gained a lot of knowledge.

Before leaving, there were actually guests at the main table who accosted her, claiming that they would definitely go to Shuangxi Building to taste the delicious food in person another day, and after the people left, Ning Xi looked at the name card in his hand, the president of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce? What's the name?

Meng Shuangshuang came to Ning Xi to go back, and said indignantly: "When I go back to find out who the inner ghost is, see if I don't pull his tendons and skin him!" Ning Xi laughed, she liked her kind of love-hate temperament.

Jun Qianyu also paced beside Ning Xi before leaving, and specially reminded: "Don't forget the thirteen dishes you still owe me." ”

Ning Xi was happy in his heart, and he didn't hate it when he saw him collecting debts: "Fifth Master, please rest assured, you won't forget, the folk girl will definitely make thirteen ingenious dishes to present to the Fifth Master." ”

Meng Shuangshuang was curious: "What thirteen dishes?" ”

Ning Xi explained: "Jun Wuye took me to Lezhou to find Princess Qi's nurse, and in exchange, I want to make thirteen dishes for him that no one else has eaten." ”

Meng Shuangshuang suddenly realized: "I see, no wonder I said how could he suddenly be so good to you, it turns out that the drunkard doesn't mean to drink!" Bai was a good person. Suddenly, he came up to him with a smile, "That, Ning Xi, can I also get some light when you cook for the fifth master?" ”

Ning Xi smiled and twisted her face: "When did I cook less than your little gluttonous cat?" Don't worry, your share will be indispensable at that time. ”

The two returned to Sungai Tower happily, Rong Daquan and they had already gotten the news, and they all gathered around at this time and inquired about the scene at that time.

"Ning Dongjia, did Princess Qi really eat the porridge you made?"

"I heard that Pin Xianju made a chicken marrow bamboo shoot that is exactly the same as your one, is it true?"

"Is the Qi Wangfu very big, and you can't make out the road in all the bends and twists inside?"

"I heard that Princess Qi looks like a fairy, isn't she particularly beautiful?"

These questions are really outrageous one by one, and Ning Xi doesn't know how to answer them.

"Ahem!" Meng Shuangshuang sat down at the table, stretched out a palm and shook it at everyone, "Come on, do you want to listen to Mr. Meng, who is full of witty words, tell you about today's Qi Palace?" Five cents for one person, pay all the money and start talking! ”

"Cut!" Everyone scattered with a bang.

Only Rong Daquan and a few other people in the kitchen stayed, and asked worriedly: "Ningxi, did that Pin Xianju really make chicken marrow shoots?" ”

Ning Xi nodded: "Really, it's exactly the same as what I did last time." ”

Rong Daquan's apprentice Wang Dongping suddenly said angrily: "It must be Feng Zhihai, I'll just say that that kid is sneaky and wrong." ”

Ning Xi asked calmly, "What about Feng Zhihai?" ”

Wang Dongping said: "I went out the day before yesterday, and I haven't seen anyone yet, so I definitely don't dare to come back." ”

As soon as the words fell, someone suddenly rushed in from the door, and knelt down in front of Ning Xi with a "plop": "Miss Ning, please, spare me this time!" ”

Ning Xi looked at Feng Zhihai kneeling in front of him with a little sadness: "Is it really you?" ”

Feng Zhihai cried bitterly: "I'm sorry Miss Ning, I was fascinated for a while, and I did something sorry for you and Shuangxi Building, but now I'm really desperate, if you don't help me, my mother and I really won't be able to live." ”

Ning Xi said disdainfully: "Don't cry, a big man, what does he look like when he cries!" I don't understand, did I help you less a while ago? Where did Sungai Lou and I apologize to you for letting you do such a thing? ”

Feng Zhihai reluctantly accepted his crying: "It's just that my mother's mother is seriously ill, and my life really can't go on, Li Shaodong from Pin Xianju gave me twenty taels of silver and asked me to help find out the dishes that Miss Ning plans to make at the food conference, I, I'm also forced to do it!" ”

Ning Xi sneered: "So when you were in the chef qualification exam, Li Shaodong bribed you to frame me for cheating?" ”

Feng Zhihai lowered his head in embarrassment: "Yes...... Yes. ”

"So for a mere twenty taels of silver, you can sell your conscience?"

"Miss Ning, I was wrong, I really didn't mean to hurt you! Please spare me this time, as long as I can stay in Sungai Tower, I will definitely repay you for your kindness in the future. ”

"Yes, you didn't mean it, you had a heart! Oh, if it weren't for the seizure of Pinxian Ju, you would have nowhere to go, and I'm afraid you wouldn't have begged to come to the door! Feng Zhihai, think about what a great opportunity I gave you in the first place, if it weren't for Sungai Building, you think you could learn the most profound cooking skills so easily? It's okay for your mother to ask for money for medical treatment, I said that you can advance money, but you don't want to learn skills in a down-to-earth manner, but you want to go down that crooked path. It's true that I'm kind-hearted, but I'm not stupid, I won't keep a poisonous snake that bites me by my side! ”

"Miss Ning, please, I'm like this now, no restaurant will take me in, if you really want to kick me out, then our family will die!"

"If you do something wrong, you will have to bear the consequences, I opened a restaurant instead of a good hall, don't coax me with your set of tragic dramas, you go out, don't come back in the future, I will never take you in here."

Feng Zhihai wanted to ask again, but Meng Shuangshuang said viciously on the side: "We haven't arrested you and sent you to the official mansion, it's already considered magnanimous, don't get out of here, next time you dare to come again, I'll see you and beat you once." With that, he kicked over, Feng Zhihai was unprepared for a while, and she kicked him to the ground.

The guys on both sides also came over, and one of them grabbed his arm and threw it outside the door: "Get out!" ”

Feng Zhihai cried and cried, wiping his tears while hanging his head and walking slowly.

Ning Xi stood at the door, sighing to himself, and suddenly saw an officer and soldier coming, and re-affixed the seal on the gate of Pinxianju on the opposite door, and the plaque with three gold lacquer characters on the lintel of "Pinxianju" was also removed and thrown aside, with a bleak appearance.

Ning Xi was about to go in to rest, but saw that the little servant who was waiting next to Jun Wuye came to deliver a message, asking Ning Xi to get ready, and Jun Wuye would come over to eat the first dish tomorrow.
