Chapter 378: Grievances and Hatreds Before the Competition

"You're going to visit the grave today?" Su Miao's eyes circled Tong Ran and asked.

"You're right." Tong Ran shook the folding fan lightly and said with a smile.

Su Miao was stunned: "Doesn't your family live in Suzhou, what kind of tomb did you come to Liangdu to sweep?" ”

"My mother is from Liangdu, and this time I came to sweep my mother's grave." He replied with a faint smile, answering all questions.

Su Miao didn't say anything, generally women will be buried in the ancestral grave of their husband's family after they get married, but Tong Ran's mother was not buried in the ancestral grave of the Tong family, but was transported back to her hometown Liangdu, this is not a topic that should continue to be asked.

"You're so laid-back, the tournament is about to start." Su Miao sat down at the table and said coolly.

"Each other, each other." Tong Ran said leisurely, and then asked, "Why didn't the little young master follow you today?" ”

"He and I are not conjoined, what's so strange about being separated once in a while?"

"Isn't it ......" Tong Ran, who was holding the teacup to drink tea, paused slightly in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Quarrel?" ”

Su Miao didn't answer, but asked, "You don't stay in the city, what are you doing in this kind of place?" ”

"Find someone." Tong Ran replied.

"Looking for whom?" Su Miao asked.

"Him!" The folding fan in Tong Ran's hand pointed to the young man downstairs who was performing assorted fried rice on the first floor, and said with a smile.

Su Miao frowned, a sense of crisis rose in her heart, and asked, "Do you recognize him?" ”

"This year's Southwest Province Chef King Ye Hezheng. On the stage of this year's Southwest Province, he challenged the previous Southwest Chef King as a judge in the last game. And won completely, I heard that the last year's Southwest Chef King announced his retirement from the industry after the game, and went home to recuperate. Tong Ran said with a smile.

Su Miao nodded suddenly and paused for a moment. Ask: "Is he amazing?" ”

"I don't know what you're nodding?" Tong Ran glanced at her with disdain and said.

Su Miao snorted, and looked at Ye Hezheng, who could even fry rice downstairs with one hand, and suddenly the corners of her lips hooked, revealing a smile.

Tong Ran kept looking at her side face, and when he saw her suddenly laughing, his heart became happy. After taking a sip of tea, a pair of lips were just hooked, and he felt two piercing gazes projected at him. He looked over, but what was facing him was Su Chan's coffin-like cold face and Su Yan's hostile eyes, and after a pause, he slowly put down the teacup. After a long time, he asked Su Miaodao:

"Why do your siblings keep glaring at me?"

"They've always hated you." Su Miao looked downstairs intently. He replied with a smile.

"......" the green tendons on Tong Ran's forehead were jumping happily, "I hate that I still come up and sit with me?" ”

"We're here to share a table." Su Chan replied coldly.

"What I hate the most is your woman-like sisssy." Su Yan snorted heavily and said.

Tong Ranpi looked at him with a smile: "Are you qualified to talk about others?" ”

At this moment, Ye Hezheng strode up from downstairs with two large plates of fried rice, and placed them firmly on Tong Ran's table, laughing with a mouthful of white teeth:

"Brother Tong, junior brother's newly invented assorted fried rice, you can try it!"

"Brother Tong?" Su Miaohu looked suspiciously at Tong Ran, who was smiling slightly.

"Huh. There's a girl here! Ye Hezheng obviously didn't have a good look in his eyes, so he saw Su Miao's beautiful existence. Asked with a smile, "Brother Tong, this girl ......" He looked at Su Miao from top to bottom, "Isn't it your eldest sister?" ”

Su Miao's face darkened, and she glared at Ye Hezheng with pity, there was something wrong with this person's eyes, she pointed at Tong Ran, gritted her teeth and asked:

"Am I older than him in your eyes?"

"What do you mean by adding that 'yet'?" Tong Ran asked dissatisfiedly.

Ye Hezheng's expression was very embarrassed, he scratched his cheek with his fingers, and asked with a smile: "Isn't it?" ”

"Of course not! She's my eldest sister! No, she's my second sister! Su Yan glared angrily and said loudly angrily.

Ye Hezheng found that there was a person sitting in the inconspicuous corner, looking over, a pair of eyes suddenly froze, he looked at this apricot face and peach cheek beauty, his face was red, and he looked straight at Su Yan's pink face, his heart was pounding, and after a while, he suddenly sighed tremblingly: "What a beautiful girl!" ”

"......" rushed to the top of his head without an open flame, even his temples were pounding, Su Yan's tears came out, he kicked him when he jumped up, and roared loudly: "You are the girl!" Your whole family is girls! ”

Ye He was holding his shin and jumping and screaming.

Tong Ran stroked his forehead speechlessly, he knew that he wouldn't call them to share the table, such a big movement, everyone looked over, and his face was lost.

Su Miao didn't care, scooped a small half bowl of fried rice with a spoon, and ate it happily.

The craftsmanship of the cooking is so exquisite that it has reached the point of perfection, which shows that the chef has put a lot of effort into this craft. The fried rice made by Ye Hezheng is very brightly colored, the ingredients are very rich, of course, the seasoning is also very thick, such fried rice is actually more difficult to fry than the fried rice seasoned with only salt, once the seasoning is too thick, the means of modification are too deliberate and obvious, the taste of the raw material itself will be covered, not to bring out the original taste of the food, but to cover up its taste, which is a failure in cooking, so this degree must be mastered well, Ye Hezheng he mastered it very well, not only the original taste of the ingredients and the taste of the spices coexist harmoniously, He also created new flavors based on this, which is surprising and exciting at the same time.

The rice grains are full, the grains are distinct, the vegetables are fresh, crisp and refreshing, chewy, and fragrant in the mouth.

Tong Ran put down the chopsticks and asked Su Miao with a smile: "How is it?" ”

Su Miao put down the spoon and didn't answer, but looked at Ye Hezheng and said with a smile: "Little Brother Ye, I heard you just said that you haven't decided where you want to go in the future, are you interested in coming to my Su Ji Pinxian Building?" ”

Ye Hezheng, who was grinning and rubbing his leg bones, was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Su Ji Pin Xianlou? "Apparently he hadn't heard.

"I forgot to introduce, this is Miss Su from Su Ji Pin Xian Building. She is very famous in our Qin'an Province, and she and I are both representing Qin'an Province in the competition. Tong Ran introduced with a smile.

Ye Hezheng was taken aback for a while, and suddenly realized. stared at Su Miao and exclaimed: "Is it the girl who lost to Brother Tong but made the competition use special rules to advance exceptionally, and is still the fiancΓ©e of Prince Rui's youngest son?" ”

The green tendons in the corners of Su Miao's forehead began to beat happily, she grinded her back molars, and said to Tong Ran with a smile:

"Thank you for spreading the word for me."

"No thanks, since they are fellow villagers, they naturally have to take care of each other when they come to Liangdu, and this is the way they should be." Tong Ran smiled harmlessly.

Su Miao gritted her teeth and laughed. Glaring at him with a pair of eyes.

"It's the first time I've seen a girl who can advance in a local competition, and the girl is still so young, she must be very skilled. Ahh Ye Hezheng scratched the back of his head and said with a smile.

"Little brother, are you interested in trying to work in our Su Ji Pin Xian Building? Although the salary package is not necessarily the best. But it's going to be a lot of fun at work. Su Miao said with a smile.

Ye Hezheng's face showed a little embarrassment, Tong Ran spoke first, and said to Su Miao with a smile:

"You're late, he's already promised to come to our ****** after the competition."

Su Miao's face turned green, stared at Tong Ran's smiling face for a long time, and said without smiling:

"So you're here to poach too."

"It seems that we have the same vision, and it is a great honor to know that." Tong Ran shook the folding fan and put on a suave look. Said with a smile.

Su Miao ignored him and looked at Ye Hezheng. said with a smile: "A good restaurant is definitely a fertile soil that can make the chef thrive, what suits you is the best, Brother Ye doesn't need to rush to reply to me, think about it, although I Su Ji is not as rich as ******, I will never treat my own people badly, I will do my best to give you freedom." ”

Ye Hezheng just smiled and said, "I'm sorry girl, I have already promised Brother Tong." ”

Su Miao was not annoyed, and smiled faintly: "That's a pity, but you can think about it again after you agree." ”

"You're digging into my corner in front of me?" Tong Ran asked with a smile.

"Poaching isn't your forte, I'm just giving back to him in his own way." Su Miao said disapprovingly.

Tong Ran laughed, and just as he was about to speak, a noise suddenly sounded downstairs in Bai Yulou, and a rough voice cursed loudly:

"Phew! What the hell! It's also called soup? This is also called rice? Liangdu's stuff really can't be on the table, and it's not as delicious as the sugar water cooked by the old lady in the back kitchen of our Balu Building! Such an astringent thing, Lao Tzu's tongue hurts! ”

Su Miaohu looked over suspiciously, and the person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a big shoulder, a round waist, five big and three thick, wearing a very elegant silk robe, but his appearance was really unflattering, his skin was black and red as if charcoal had been roasted red, his head was round and big like a basketball, his body was fat and strong, he was very tall, about two meters, tiger back and bear waist, very strong, such a vicious looking person turned out to be a bald man, his hair was almost all gone, revealing a black scalp, and his head became more and more round. The beard is so thick that the lips are almost invisible, and the two thick thumbs are wearing two emerald wrenches, which looks like a bandit-like nouveau riche if not from a bandit. His voice was like a bell, a soup bowl had been buckled on the table by him, and the soup was scattered on the table, and he took a sip hard.

Liang Du was full of Sven people, and when he saw this beast-like big man, he was all taken aback.

"Who is this man?" Su Miao asked curiously.

"Pingle Province suddenly killed the new chef Wang Ma San this year." Tong Ran replied with a chuckle.

"How do you know everyone?" Su Miaohu stared at his face suspiciously.

"Know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles." Tong Ran replied with a smile.

Su Miao snorted with disdain.

"Ma Laosan is back!" Shopkeeper Qiu suddenly appeared and stood on the second floor, his hands in his sleeves, and there was a trace of worry in his eyes.

"The shopkeeper knows him too?" Su Miao asked in surprise.

Shopkeeper Qiu didn't answer, looked at the entrance on the first floor, and sighed worriedly: "In the end, I still ran into it!" ”

Su Miao was stunned for a moment, and looked at the eyes of the shopkeeper Qiu, a man and a woman suddenly walked in the white jade building, the young man was elegant and modest, the girl was cheerful and lively, as soon as she came in, the girl looked around, but when her eyes fell on Ma Laosan, she exclaimed, subconsciously took half a step back in a panic, and shouted in a panic:

"Ma Laosan!"

Su Miao recognized the two people who came in, they were Ruan Qian and Ruan Shuang, two siblings from Gan Bao Lou.

"Ma Laosan!" Ruan Qian frowned, protected his sister behind him, and frowned.

"Yo, isn't this the second sister and the younger brother Qian!" Ma Laosan showed a weird smile, and when he laughed, the two rows of big gold teeth shone brightly, making the hairs on his spine stand on end.

"Ma Laosan, you still dare to come back to Liangdu!" Ruan Qian was furious, and it seemed that he had a very deep grudge against Ma Laosan.

"This is Liangdu City, neither your Ruan Qian's nor your Ganbaolou's, why can't Lao Tzu come? Boy, who are you yelling at now, Lao Tzu will tell you, Lao Tzu is back this time, from now on, you Ganbaolou be careful, let's wait and see this year's Chef King Competition, you Ganbaolou is waiting to close the door! Hahahaha! Ma Laosan laughed arrogantly, threw down a silver ingot of white flowers on the dining table, walked out with a figure-eight step, and when he passed by Ruan Shuang, he stared at her tender face and sighed twice, which frightened Ruan Shuang and hid behind Ruan Qian.

Ruan Qian protected his sister and was furious.

Ma Laosan didn't care, and led a group of thug-like assistants away.

Ruan Qian stared at his back, angry.

"Who is that person, his attitude is so arrogant, and he looks so scary!" Su Yan stared at a pair of big eyes in horror and asked fearfully.

In the early years, Ganbaolou relied on his skills to continue to survive in Liangdu, but Ma Laosan was addicted to drinking and gambling, and his hands and feet were not clean, in the early years, because of his good skills to make Ganbaolou's business prosperous, so Ruan Lao's family has been retreating, and then the second room of the Ruan family, who has been living in other provinces, came back, Ruan Lao's family found that the eldest young master of the second room, Ruan Qian's craftsmanship is extremely high, so he intends to cultivate, and gradually Ruan Qian and Ma Lao's three divisions are courteous, Ma Laosan thinks that the Ruan family deliberately suppressed, Holding a grudge, it happened that at that time he lost money and was being collected by the creditor, so he kidnapped Ruan Qian's sister, that is, the Ruan girl, and later Ma Laosan was arrested, sentenced to exile, and was exiled to Lunan. Tong Ran replied slowly.

Su Yan suddenly nodded his head.

Ruan Qian's brother and sister saw Ma Laosan walking away, their faces became ugly, and after trying to calm down for a while, Ruan Qian took his sister's hand and came upstairs, and the shopkeeper Qiu hurriedly greeted him, arched his hand and said with a smile:

"Young Master Ruan, you are here, you are not welcome! There is a long way to go! ”

"Shopkeeper Qiu is good!" Ruan Qian smiled and arched his hand.

Neither side mentioned what had just happened. (To be continued.) )
