Aftertaste does not answer.

Su Yan got angry, stomped his feet, his snow-white teeth bit his bright red lips, and shouted angrily at Su Miao:

"Second sister!"

Su Miao didn't answer, and looked at Tong Ran who was walking slowly from a distance, with a faint expression.

Tong Ran wore a moon-white Tianxiang silk shirt today, tied a pale blue scroll ribbon around his waist, the black and bright three thousand green silk was tied with a hairband of the same color, a pair of bright willow eyes like stars smiled, he looked at Su Miao, and a golden silk wooden folding fan in his hand shook slowly, polite and leisurely.

He stood in front of Su Miao, was silent for a moment, with a hint of banter, and said with a smile:

"Miss Su, it's so early today!"

"You're pretty early, too." Su Miao replied calmly, not feeling embarrassed at all because she was too late to be looked at with strange and sympathetic eyes, she knew in her heart that the reason why those people looked at her like that was probably because she thought that she had suffered a psychological blow in the last round of three consecutive defeats, and this game would definitely not come.

"I thought you weren't coming." Tong Ran smiled lightly, shook the folding fan, and said.

"Wouldn't you be disappointed if I didn't come?" Su Miao said lightly.

"Naturally." Tong Ran smiled.

The two looked at each other, obviously they were very peaceful expressions, and in an instant, the wind was blowing, flying sand and stones, raising the hem of the skirt and robe, and between the electric light and flint, the fierce sparks had flown back and forth a few times!

At this moment, Master Jiang stepped forward with a smile and stood between the two, cutting off the sight of the two of them. Said in a kind tone:

"Two, the time has come, it's time to take the stage. If you miss the time, you will be disqualified! ”

Su Miao and Tong Ran glanced at him at the same time, paused, turned around separately, and went straight up the stairs to the stage.

At the moment of stepping onto the stage, for some reason, the people in the audience always felt that there was a different atmosphere flowing on the stage. Unconsciously, the teahouses on both sides were boiling again, and the sound of shouting and betting was endless.

This match is the last round of the Qin'an Division. At the same time, it is also a final tiebreaker, and the deadlock of the draw is about to be broken, which is also destined to be a fairly tight game, and every point is the key to the decisive victory. Each judge is an important figure in determining the direction of the game. Even if it is just a difference of one point, there will be a very different ending, and if you win, you will become the new chef king of the Qin'an Division, representing the entire Qin'an Division to advance to the Liangdu finals; Lost, success ends here, all efforts and hardships are wiped out, and everything has to be restarted.

It was an exciting final, but it was also a solemn final.

Under the stage. On the VIP seat, Chun Niang supported her cheek with one hand. A pair of big eyes stared straight at the stage, and after a while, muttered:

"Sister Miao and that Tong Ran, the feeling between the two of them is very delicate."

"Click...... Click......" responded to her with this voice, the corners of her eyebrows twitched fiercely, turned her head to look at the melon seed trio sitting next to her calmly, and asked anxiously, "Aren't you worried at all?" This is the last round! Not to mention the three consecutive defeats of Sister Saimiao, she has no energy for a few days, and she is almost late for today's game! Sister Miao she has never been like this, she has always been very serious about things in the kitchen, I remember when she was in Fengzhou, she would get up early every day to sort out all the ingredients to be used for the day before opening the store, and she was never late, but this time she was almost late! If there is an accident in this round, we will go home, how can you still be so calm, aren't you worried at all? ”

"Shut up, you're dead!" Su Xian swallowed the melon seeds and frowned impatiently.

"Chunniang, be quiet." Lin Yan said softly.

"My second sister won't lose, you don't have a crow's mouth!" Su Chan said unhappily.

The corners of Chunniang's mouth twitched even more, and she was speechless.

"Why is that girl here again?" Su Chan looked into the distance and said more and more displeased.

Su Xian followed her gaze, and sure enough, she saw Feng Erniu holding the railing with both hands, standing in the front row of the audience area, with a small mouth open, looking at the stage with her neck raised, with an expression that seemed to be pressing.

"Come when she comes, why are you so excited every time you see her?" Su Xian swallowed melon seeds, squinted at Su Chan, and said.

Su Chan snorted from her nose, turned her head, and continued to rub the melon seeds.

"By the way, although Miaomiao lost in the last round, you know how the special judges judged, I remember that when Miaomiao was making Yifu noodle soup, Master Huihai was very fond of that noodle." Lin Yan said.

"Who knows, I don't know what that special judge is for, sitting on a stool, I don't know what I want to do!" Su Xian pursed her lips and said.

"Who's judging today?" Chun Niang said, looking towards the seat of the special judge, but was surprised to see a seven or eight-year-old female doll sitting on a stool, this doll is too small, sitting on a high stool, a pair of toes can just reach the ground, "What's the matter, why is this competition getting more and more strange, the last special judge was a monk, and this third round of judging was actually replaced by a seven or eight-year-old baby?" ”

The other three only noticed the situation after listening to her words, and when they looked over, a breath diverged into the trachea, making the three of them almost choked, and they all rubbed their eyes in amazement.

"That's not a baby!" A laughing voice sounded from behind him, startling the four of them, and they turned back in shock, but what greeted them was a handsome face, that's right, it was Tong Changsheng, who had always been elusive.

"Little man, if you dare to speak suddenly behind the old lady, be careful that the old lady will turn you into a flower-faced cat!" Su Xian finally calmed the beating little heart, glared angrily, and warned with a black face.

The corners of Tong Changsheng's lips, who were laughing, stiffened, and then he twitched fiercely:

"Eldest sister, can you remove the word in the middle of the first three words, I can be more comfortable."

"What does it matter to me if you are comfortable or not!" Su Xian snorted from her nose.

Lin Yan directly ignored Su Xian's words, and asked Tong Changsheng curiously:

"You just said that it wasn't a baby. So who is she? ”

"She's a dwarf." Tong Changsheng said with a smile, "That's the famous dwarf Shen Erniang in Liangdu City, the appearance of a child's body and an adult. Don't look at her like that, she is forty years old this year, she is the girl who was the grandmother of the princess, say closer, she is the grandmother of the princess, Shen Erniang herself has a soup restaurant in Liangdu, which is a very elegant place in Liangdu. Because of the good soup, it is called 'the first soup in Liangdu' by many people. ”

"Soup?" Lin Yan was stunned for a moment and looked at the stage in surprise.

On the stage. Su Miao had already noticed that special judge, looking at the figure that was only seven or eight years old, but she had a face that did not match her figure at all, although she did not look old. But at first glance, you can see that it is an adult face. She is not ugly, even very delicate, and wears heavy makeup, wears a lot of shining gold jewelry, just from the face, this is a pretty good-looking woman, but this face looks awkward on this figure.

Shen Erniang was sitting on a stool swinging her legs, her eyes slanting upward. With a nonchalant expression, looking at the sky.

Su Miao swept her gaze over her.

Aftertaste has whispered Shen Erniang's origin to her.

"Soup." Su Miao frowned. I was more and more surprised, and I was surprised by the thought that suddenly came to my heart.

Master Jiang had already picked up the golden mallet from the shelf on the side and struck it on the golden gong tied with a red rope, he was obviously in a good mood today, and happily made a lengthy opening remarks, struck the golden gong with the golden mallet for the second time, and then, according to the usual practice, introduced the twelve judges one by one, and then picked up the golden mallet and struck the golden gong for the third time, which is the meaning of the third round of finals.

Su Miao stood on the stage, her eyes swept around the table covered with red cloth, and calmly looked at the bottom of the stage.

Tong Ran stood behind the stove, the folding fan shook gently, the corners of his lips smiled, and he was elegant and elegant.

Lord Jiang smiled, waved at the guys under the stage, the two guys carried a big ebony shelf up, the center of the ebony shelf hung a big bulletin board, the board was covered with a festive red cloth, placed in the center of the stage, Lord Jiang stepped forward and lifted the red cloth on the board, this board is double-sided, and the front and back sides are engraved with a big black lacquer dragon flying phoenix dance big characters - soup.

Soup?

Soup!

Because the board is two-sided, the contestants in the audience and on the stage saw this word at the same time, and after a shock, whispers and discussions broke out, and the atmosphere of the scene suddenly became warm.

Su Miao didn't guess this result, when she recalled that Shen Erniang, the special judge in the audience, was called "the first soup in Liangdu", she had thought about it, but she didn't expect the final round of the final in Qin'an Province, the most critical and probably the most fierce game, the topic turned out to be this, it was really unexpected.

At this stage of the development of food, it is a matter of opinion whether soup is considered a dish or not, but in the history of cooking, soup is definitely one of the oldest and most basic cooking methods. In ancient times, when people were just learning to use fire and cooking food in utensils, boiling with water and roasting with fire were the two most common cooking techniques. Roasting with fire is to spread the food on a stone that is easy to conduct heat, and make a fire under the stone, so that the heat of the fire gathers through the stone to cook the food; Boiling is better understood, putting water in a vessel and cooking food over a fire. Soup is one of the most well-known methods of boiled dishes, and even dishes with soup can be called "soup dishes", and in this sense, soup is also a type of dish.

At the same time, soup is also one of the foundations of cooking, throughout the ages, regardless of Chinese and foreign, almost all cuisines have hanging soup, although the way and usage of hanging soup are different, but the purpose is the same, that is, with the help of soup stock, the taste of the cooked ingredients become more mellow, thicker and more delicious.

Soup, that is, boiled ingredients, seems simple, but in fact, the knowledge in it is more advanced than any kind of cooking method, the mystery needs to be slowly comprehended through experience and experience, by no means overnight, not like other aspects can be summed up by the predecessors of the tricks, this cooking method has no tricks, can only rely on their own understanding to comprehend, until the realization of their own cooking method is considered a small success.

People in the industry know that soup is a university in cooking, and only soup can become an independent individual and an indispensable soul ingredient, but laymen don't understand it. Qin'an Province is located in the south of the Yangtze River, the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is suitable, the humidity is moderate and close to the Qingjiang River, although there are also a few well-known soup dishes, but not as good as the Cantonese people, at the same time, the Jiangnan people may not be able to accept the rich kinds of soups in the Cantonese cuisine, Qin'an people like sweets, they like to drink pasta, they like to drink porridge, but their hobbies in soup are much worse.

This proposition may seem simple, but it is not so easy to win.

Su Miao pursed her lips.

"Sure enough, this is it." When he saw Shen Erniang, he had already expected to recall, and when he saw that his prediction came true, his long eyebrows raised.

"What is there to do with soup, a delicious soup takes time, a soup that does not take time is tasteless, if you really want to make a delicious soup, at least it must be boiled slowly on low heat for a day and a night." Su Yan frowned and said.

"Silly boy, it's because of this that this kind of question came out in the last round. This is a difficult time for the competition, and the soup that can only be delicious can be made by staying up for a day and a night, so that you can spend a day to process the ingredients and then boil, and the soup cooked should taste exactly the same as the soup made over the old fire, which is not a test. Zhao He didn't know why, he sighed and said with a smile.

Su Yan nodded suddenly, suddenly realizing that this was a tough battle, and couldn't help frowning.

Master Jiang had already lifted the red cloth covering the food table with a smile, and the variety and variety of fresh ingredients were dazzling, and he said to the two contestants kindly:

"It's still the same as the previous two rounds, there are no rules, and the two of them do their best to cook the most wonderful soup, meat soup, vegetarian soup, clear soup, thick soup, just taste and don't ask anything else. The game has lasted from now until the time of the child, I would like to remind the two of you here, this is the last round of the finals of the Qin'an Division, and it is also the last round of the competition between the two, this round of the game is divided into three games, two wins in three games, which one of the two can take the lead in winning two games, which one is the final winner, is the chef of our Qin'an Province. And the one who lost, sorry tightly, the previous results were written off, and there was no honor. Therefore, I hope that the two of them can cheer up and go all out to dedicate the most exciting game in the history of Qin'an Province to everyone present! ”

After he finished speaking with a smile and a slow manner, he took up the golden mallet again, struck it loudly on the golden gong, and said loudly:

"The first of the third round of the Qin'an Division of the King Chef Competition, start!"

He has never reported the curtain and never pronounced the full name of the game, but this time he has accounted for both, that is to say, he has now entered the most tense and important stage, and the victory and defeat are imminent from now on! (To be continued.) )
