Chapter Seventy-Seven: Victory

I saw that Fan Erye's rich flowers bloomed in the pineapple bowl, and what was blooming was something crystal clear and shaped like jelly.

"Could it be? Is this fish skin jelly? Zhao Zhiying first saw the doorway, raised her head and asked Second Master Fan.

Fan Erye clasped his hands together and saluted, "It's fish skin jelly." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. In the audience, someone first raised an objection: "The title of this dish is: appetizer soup." You make fish skin jelly, how can it be considered soup? Obviously, the text is not right, you don't have to taste it at all, you will lose directly. ”

Fan Erye was not annoyed when he heard this, he ignored the audience, but directly explained to several chefs on the judges' table, "I don't agree with Your Excellency's point of view, my fish skin jelly, before it solidifies, is soup." Could it be that just because the soup is solidified, it can't be called a soup? If the chicken is stewed, it can't be considered a chicken? Isn't a fish a fish if it's cut into chunks? ”

The audience was speechless, and the judges nodded in agreement.

In the end, Tang Jingliang said, "This fish skin jelly is also soup, another form of soup. After saying that, he took the lead in scooping up some fish skin jelly from the pineapple bowl in a small bowl and putting it into the small bowl. As soon as he took a bite of the frozen fish skin, Tang Jingliang felt a sparkling and elastic touch between his lips and tongue, spreading from his mouth to his throat and then into his stomach.

"Well, it's delicious!" Tang Jingliang sighed sincerely, and then took another bite with a spoon and put it in his mouth. And this time, he was stunned, looked down at the fish skin jelly carefully, and found that there were dark lines in it, like patterns, fused into the fish skin jelly. After a moment's thought, he understood the mystery and nodded with a smile.

Several other judges also tasted Fan Erye's fish skin jelly, and several of them had different expressions, some were silent, some were very surprised, and some closed their eyes and smiled.

The sixth prince also scooped up a mouthful of fish skin jelly, he didn't taste it first this time, but handed the spoon to Lin Miao, and asked her curiously, "What do you think of this fish skin jelly?" ”

Lin Miao first took a look at the appearance of the fish skin jelly and found that it was crystal clear, with dark lines in it, which embellished it like a stretched flower bud. Immediately, she gently moved her nose and inhaled the taste of the jelly deeply. The corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, her expression suddenly became excited, and her eyes also flashed with a sparkling light, "I see!" It's really worthy of Grandpa Fan. ”

Her words made the sixth prince puzzled, and he asked suspiciously, "Is there any mystery in this dish?" ”

"This fish skin jelly has a sour and springy taste and a smooth and soft mouth, which is the best in the appetizing soup." Lin Miao explained softly.

As soon as Lin Miao's words fell, Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper stepped forward and said to several judges and the queen mother, "Okay, please vote." ”

Tang Jingliang first voted for Fan Erye's fish skin jelly.

Zhang Liankai voted for Tao Qing of King Lin's Mansion.

Liu Heyu admired Shao Chao of Xiangguo Mansion very much, and the idea of tofu wrapped in egg white, so he voted for Shao Chao without hesitation.

Zhao Zhiying hesitated for a long time between Fan Erye and Shao Chao, and in the end, she voted for Fan Erye's fish skin jelly.

Now, everyone's attention is focused on the Queen Mother, and it is not known who she will vote for.

I saw the queen mother's hand raised, and the little eunuch next to her immediately took her ticket in her hand, and just waited for her to give her instructions, and voted for the corresponding chef.

The Queen Mother smiled slightly and said slowly, "The topic of the first part is: appetizer soup. As the name suggests, the purpose of drinking this soup is to prepare for the next feast and make people appetite. The dishes of the three chefs are: chicken soup, fish head tofu soup, and fish skin jelly. The first chicken soup is rich and colorful, full of meat, and although it tastes good, it goes against the original intention of the appetizing soup. After drinking this soup, I have no appetite for the next dishes. The second dish of fish head tofu soup is full of creativity, and the addition of refreshing mint to the tofu can indeed make people feel refreshed, but the tofu is not easy to digest, and after the mouth, it is easy to produce a feeling of fullness, and the appetizing effect is also debatable. As for the third course of fish skin jelly"

Everyone's attention was focused, and they all wanted to know what the Queen Mother thought of this fish skin jelly.

"The third course is very easy to make and has a sour taste, which is perfect as an appetizer. It is also a unique fruit bowl carved from pineapple. The refreshing sweet and sour taste of pineapple adds to the flavor of this fish skin jelly. Therefore, the mourning family's vote was voted for Fan Er of Chen Gongfu. ”

After the queen mother finished speaking, everyone talked about it, and the four judges were convinced. Zhang Liankai's face was a little unbearable, just now the Queen Mother said that Tao Qing's chicken soup in King Lin's Mansion obviously violated the original intention of the appetizing soup, but he still voted for Tao Qing, doesn't this mean that he has no eyes and is not up to standard.

Fortunately, after the queen mother finished speaking, she didn't say more, leaned back on the cushioned backrest, closed her eyes, and continued to let the two little eunuchs help her pinch her calves.

A gong sounded, announcing the end of the first part of the competition. The votes of the three chefs were: Chen Gongfu Fan Erye 3 votes, Lin Wangfu Tao Qing 1 vote, Xiangguo Mansion Shao Chao 1 vote.

Liu Wanfu's shopkeeper announced: "Everyone! The first part of the final of the food competition has been completed, and I would like to congratulate Fan Erqi of Chen Gongfu on his victory. Chef Tao Qing and Chef Shao Chao, who are temporarily behind, don't be discouraged, there are still two links in the next place, you can continue to catch up and catch up. Now that it's almost lunch time, please move to the lobby on the first floor and the second floor of Hui Xian Building. The second session will start in the future, please be on time. ”

Lin Miao was a little panicked at this time, if the eldest grandmother and the eldest young master returned to the guest room and didn't see themselves in the room, it would be bad. But the clothes he is wearing now are those of the little eunuch, and if he walks around, it will be more conspicuous. She hurriedly asked Xiao Lizi quietly, "What should I do about this?" I have to hurry back to the guest room, or I will be found by my grandmother. ”

Xiao Lizi smiled at her, "Don't worry, the sixth prince is here, what are you worried about!" ”

"The Sixth Prince won't care about my business!" Lin Miao was in a hurry, and she was a little speechless, as soon as this sentence that didn't enter her brain came out, she realized it, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand. However, it was too late, and Shan Xiao had already heard what he said.

Shan Xiao stood up, facing the direction of the Queen Mother, although he didn't turn around, he whispered to Lin Miao, "Don't worry, since I let Xiao Lizi get you out, I won't leave you alone." ”

Just one sentence made Lin Miao's flustered heart settle down, as if even if the sky fell, he would help him carry it. She bit her lip embarrassedly, regretting her reckless words. Her expression was all seen by Xiao Lizi. He frowned, leaned over to her, and whispered to her, "Ouch!" Don't think about it too much, the sixth prince is righteous, he is like this to everyone, he doesn't mean anything else, don't misunderstand that he likes you or something. ”

What! Lin Miao glanced at him, "I didn't think so!" ”

Xiao Lizi gently stroked his chest, as if he was relieved, "That's good, I've seen too many ladies secretly sending autumn waves to our six princes, and the spring heart is sprouting, throwing them into their arms or something." He didn't bother with any of them. I just told you not to think about it, it's for your own good. ”

"It's you thinking too much!" Before Lin Miao could say this, Shan Xiao said it first, causing Lin Miao to be stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing. She squeezed her eyes at Xiao Lizi, and her expression seemed to say, she knew that she was a dog and a mouse, right?

Xiao Lizi touched his nose, glanced at the back of the sixth prince aggrievedly, and didn't say anything more.
