If the legendary gods of the heavens are all existing, then among them, the most inexplicable and widely recognized is the goddess of love, who is in charge of marriage and love. Westerners have the legend of him as a little boy with wings in his hand and an arrow in his hand, but in Eastern mythology, it is a white-bearded old man who does this work.

A little grown, an old child, can the love story in the world not be strange and messy?

The wolf fell in love with the sheep, the mouse fell in love with the cat, the gold medal scout of the immortal mercenary fell in love with the big stone of Taihang Tower, and when it came to love, even gender and species were not a problem, who could say that this was impossible?

Su Xiafei clenched his silver teeth, hesitated for a moment, and finally turned to Xu Laosan and said, "Third brother, go back and bring the news to my brother-in-law." Afraid that Xu Laosan would not escape alone, he said: "Don't worry, even if it's just for that stupid boy, he won't do anything to me." ”

Beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from Xu Laosan's forehead, and he seemed to be a little frightened when he stood there, and he didn't say anything.

Li Le no longer paid attention to him, and instead sighed to Su Xiafei: "Tomorrow is a big day for stones, you shouldn't leave at this time." ”

Su Xiafei said: "Isn't he just hoping to make a break with me?" I am the one who does not destroy the mercenaries, and I came here to help Bao Dejin investigate the secrets in your Taihang Building, and take people's money and money to eliminate disasters with people, and I am just playing with him. ”

Li Le tilted his head and plucked out his ears, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'm not deaf, I heard you speak so loudly next door just now." ”

Su Xiafei couldn't cry or laugh: "What do you want?" ”

Li Le smiled: "Come back with me, before Lao Xuan appears, you stay by the stone honestly and enjoy the time together." As he spoke, he deliberately squeezed his eyes at her.

Su Xiafei sighed softly in her mouth, and then lowered her head and was silent, unable to tell whether she was willing or unhappy.

Li Le continued: "This life is actually very short, and the good times of girls are only a few years, maybe you are destined to have no fate with the stone, if this is the case, don't you want to leave more good memories for each other's youth?" ”

Su Xiafei still bowed his head and was silent. Xu Laosan on the side suddenly said: "Crazy girl, you stay, the third brother will definitely bring the news to your brother-in-law when he goes back." ”

He would rather die than leave before, but at this moment, he rushed to let Su Xiafei stay, obviously not because he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Li Le bared his teeth at him, and said: "Immortal mercenary, such a big name, just for a man like you, you deserve to be famous, I think your eldest brother will not disappoint me, please tell me on my behalf, Li Le is waiting for him in the ancient city." ”

Xu Laosan was slightly moved, looked at Li Le, and then at Su Xiafei, and finally sighed and nodded to Li Le, and left.

Chunfeng Lou may not be the best restaurant in the ancient city, but it is definitely the most luxurious restaurant in the ancient city. The majestic nine-storey pedestal of the Haitian Tower is open 24 hours a day and brightly lit all night long. The restaurant's all-nan wood interior, scarlet carpet, dark and shiny round table, purple sand teapot, crystal clear porcelain bowl, and even chopsticks and toothpicks are made of white jade, every detail reflects the strong financial resources of Yipinju Restaurant Group.

Since it opened three years ago, Chunfeng Lou has never closed for a minute, but today, a sign has been hung at the entrance of the restaurant for the first time that it is temporarily closed.

In the luxurious hall on the first floor of Chunfeng Building, the original dining table has been removed, and a circular stage is set up in the middle of the hall. To be precise, it should be called the ring. The ancient city chefs are looking forward to the North and South Famous Buildings White Case Double Heroes Meeting, which will be held in this hall today, and the stones from Taihang Tower and the Fan Peach Blossom from Nanyang Yipinju will compete in this ring.

This white case double meeting, which has been certified and supported by the professional trade union of the northern catering industry, has attracted the attention of many well-known restaurants in the ancient city and even the entire North China. A long table was set up in front of the rostrum, and three chairs were placed behind it. Sitting respectively are Ms. Fan Qinghui, general manager of Chunfeng Building, Nanyang Yipinju Ancient City Branch; Mr. Wang Tiejun, Honorary Chairman of the North China Catering Industry Professional Trade Union, Chef of Jinan Huiquan Building, and Master of Shandong Cuisine; The contemporary descendants of the Li family in the ancient city of Taihang Lou are Li Le.

"The world's delicacies are out of Lu cuisine, and the sea cucumber is roasted in the intestine of nine turns. The Heavenly Palace held a feast last night, and it was gluttonous for nine days. Wang Tiejun read a few copycat versions of crooked poetry quatrains, looked left and right at the principals of the two families involved, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Are the desks of the two ready?" Isn't it possible to get started? ”

Fan Qinghui turned her head to look at Li Le, her eyes were complicated. Li Le nodded and said, "Master Wang doesn't have to be polite, please announce the start." ”

Wang Tiejun nodded slightly, and announced on the spot: "People are not close to art, art is not close to the ancestors, Nanyang Yipinju and the ancient city of Taihang Building, both for the catering industry colleagues in the famous building, for the prosperity of the kitchen industry, invited to fight in this kitchen to compete for the white case, Wang is loved by friends in the industry, today is here to preside over justice, must strictly abide by industry ethics, in line with the principle of openness and fairness for the two winners and losers to make a fair judgment, now I announce the start of the game." ”

Everything is ready, everything is the best.

The white board was spotless and cold. Made of fine frosted nephrite, it is tough and does not hurt the knife, without any miscellaneous smell, and has the miraculous effect of short-term freshness.

On it, there are two handy guys. The silver hoe of the peach blossom was shining, but the stone was a Xiuyu noodle stick with a moderate amount of jade softness and hardness. It is one of the ancestral treasures of the Li family in Taihang Tower.

The fine noodles of Hetao, the brown flour of Xinjiang, and the three-layer dustpan flour of Shandong can be said to be the flour of the whole country to hold 616161616161 a meeting, and it is time to get all there.

The gorgeous and bright natural gas stove is authentic imported from Italy, with 36 small holes, 12 large holes for gas supply, free adjustment of the size of the fire, and a circulating gas system to ensure that the natural gas is burned thoroughly and will not produce any exhaust gas that may affect the taste of the dish.

Looking at these things in front of me, I am afraid that the laziest housewife will not be able to resist the desire to steam a pot of snowflake steamed buns.

What's more, what is looking at these things now is not a housewife, but an artist in the kitchen, two of the top white case masters.

Stone and Van Peach are dressed as chefs in white clothes and high hats. One looked solemn, apprehensive and expectant. A good time, full of confidence. The two of them are not very old, but they have already obtained the essence of white case cooking, and this competition can really be described as a dragon fight.

The two came to their respective boards, exchanged a word of invitation, and then got busy.

But see the peach blossom mixed with noodles, the stone powder, each showing its own means. For a time, the white noodles were snowy, and the water washed the dust. It's very lively.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.

Wang Tiejun is worthy of being a big connoisseur, while looking at the taste: "Although these two are young, but the white case means have reached the peak of the realm, the master of a product is to make the southern style of noodles peach blossom cake, pay attention to the taste of soft, flexible and moderate, the taste is sweet and elegant, he uses rough noodles mixed with fine noodles, with old flour fat as the ferment to attract noodles, it is the right medicine to complement each other." ”

"And what this little stone junior brother of Taihang Tower wants to do is our famous spot in the northwest: mutton steamed buns."

Li Qianjun is not only famous in the northern culinary industry, but also has a unique generation. Huiquanlou, the famous chef in North China, also asked Li Qianjun for cooking when he was a teenager. Starting from the old man, he should call the stone a little junior brother.

The beauty is on the side, and although Master Lu Cai is old and virtuous, he is inevitably a little excited. After talking about Fan Taohua's peach blossom cake, Wang Tiejun then told Fan Qinghui with great interest about the origin of the mutton steamed bun made of stones.

Legend has it that mutton steamed buns evolved from the ancient "beef and sheep soup", which has a history of more than 2,000 years. But the most talked-about story is the story between mutton steamed buns and Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty.

It is said that at the end of the Five Dynasties, when Zhao Kuangyin had not yet achieved his ambition, he was penniless and destitute. One day, wandering on the streets of Chang'an (ancient Xi'an), he was so hungry that he had to bow his head and beg for food from a baked cake shop. The shopkeeper saw that he was pitiful, so he gave him the two biscuits that had been left over a few days ago. But the baked cakes that have been left for a few days are dry and hard, and they can't be bitten at all.

At this time, he smelled the smell of meat, and it turned out that there was a butcher shop not far away cooking mutton. Zhao Kuangyin asked the store for a bowl of mutton soup, and broke the dry and hard baked cakes into small pieces and soaked them in the soup. Unexpectedly, this bowl of baked cakes inhaled the aroma of broth, the broth soaked in soft baked cakes, and a bowl of soup soaked buns made Zhao Kuangyin feverish, hungry and cold, and his spirits were greatly lifted.

A few years later, Zhao Kuangyin gained power, mastered the military power, and became the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty with the "yellow robe". Zhao Kuangyin, who became the emperor, delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, grew up over time, and there was no taste in his mouth. One day, he suddenly remembered the bowl of soup steamed buns that were fragrant to the heart and warm his whole body, and immediately ordered the imperial kitchen to make it quickly. But the imperial chef made it a few times, and Zhao Kuangyin felt that it was not the same taste back then.

Once, Zhao Kuangyin went out to inspect and traveled to Chang'an, and unconsciously came to the street where he wandered back then, and smelled the long-lost smell of meat. At this moment, Zhao Kuangyin's appetite suddenly increased, and he got off the imperial chariot and went straight to the butcher shop, asking the shopkeeper to make a bowl of mutton steamed buns immediately.

When the shopkeeper saw the emperor arrive, he was surprised and frightened. The shop on the street was closed, and the shopkeeper had to let his wife bake a few cakes, fearing that the emperor would think it was a dead dough cake, so he broke the cakes into pieces, poured mutton soup and boiled them, then put a large slice of beef, and put spinach and vermicelli in the soup, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and finally drizzled a few drops of bright red chili oil.

When the steaming and fragrant mutton steamed bun was brought to him, Zhao Kuangyin tasted it and immediately found the feeling of the year, so the emperor's shelf was not served, and he feasted under the surprised gaze of the courtiers and guards. After eating, Zhao Kuangyin felt comfortable and immediately rewarded the store.

Overnight, the emperor came to eat mutton steamed buns spread in Chang'an City, more and more people came to taste the delicious, the store simply changed the butcher shop into a mutton steamed bun restaurant, there were many people who ate, and the steamed buns were too late, so whoever ate them broke their own, but gave birth to a lot of taste.

Fan Qinghui listened carefully, and this temperamental beauty smiled from time to time regardless of the lady's demeanor. I don't know if it's because I really feel funny, or because I'm afraid of losing face as the referee of Wang Tiejun. Li Lejue felt that eighty percent of it was because of the latter.

Speaking of this, Wang Tiejun specially explained to Fan Qinghui: "The steamed bun used for this mutton steamed bun is actually a kind of steamed bun, which is by no means the same thing as steamed bread. ”

In the middle of the field, after Shi Fan and the two met, the next process had begun.

The stone made the dough pancakes, but the peach blossom covered the basin with a hot water bottle, and prepared the filling.

But I saw that the dough was rolled into a cake on the other side of the stone, the iron pot was heated, and the round cake flew up and down in the pot, and the fragrance of the face was overflowing in an instant, which made people's appetite fingers ready to move.

On the other side, the noodles of the peach blossom are still hot in the pot, and he pounds the filling there, called peach blossom cake, which is naturally indispensable peach petals, in addition, there are as many as a dozen kinds of spices. It was made in one place by the peach blossoms, and it was harmonized with a hundred flavors, and it was not long, and it exuded a fragrant and eternal fragrance.

Time passed by, and the two of them used their own tricks to give full play to the two different styles of white case skills. The stone is cooking the soup and meat, and the peach blossom is constantly kneading the dough and rubbing the cake.

On the other side of the stone is the soup pot Qi into battle, the materials are fine, the mutton is specially selected is the Hetao black-tailed lamb, the knife is skillful, and it is the "cutting deer" specially used for cutting meat in the eighteen chops of the Li family. The heat is changeable, suddenly it is raging, and suddenly it is literal, and the mutton cooked by this technique can keep it crispy and fragrant, soft and rotten in the mouth.

On the other hand, on the other hand, there is another lively scene. Brother Yipinju not only looks good, but also pays more attention to the appearance of the things he makes. Between his hands, a delicate and gorgeous peach blossom-like pastry was concocted between his fingers, pink petals, warbler green leaves, red flowers and green leaves between the dark fragrance floating, attracting people's intentions. Sure enough, it can be called colorful, flavorful, and meaningful.

Li Le looked at the two of them in his eyes, and had a judgment in his heart. The stone has indeed taken out all its skills, and this bowl of mutton steamed buns is really the pinnacle of the northern white case pastry. On the other side, the opponent Fan Taohua, has reached the realm of art and almost Taoism in the white case, and the things made are in excellent condition, and they have exhausted the essence of the words color and shape.

Within the specified time, both sides stopped their work almost at the same time, and the stone finally came to the referee's table with a bowl of incense wafting all over the field, making people's mouths drool at the smell of it, and generating an unstoppable appetite. And Fan Peach Blossom presented a plate of peach blossom cake with a gorgeous peach blossom and fragrant fragrance for everyone present. The mellow and sweet fragrance of the face wafts away with the hot steam, showing the essence of the color and taste of traditional Chinese cuisine, which makes the listeners feel relaxed and happy, and the seeers fall in love at first sight.

Wang Tiejun tasted the mutton steamed buns made of stones according to the order of completion, although he almost tasted all the delicious food in the world, but in front of the bowl of mutton steamed buns carefully concocted by the stone, under the irresistible temptation of the mellow taste, Wang Tiejun still showed a little impatience. Even ate most of the bowl in one go, regardless of his demeanor, before he reluctantly pushed away the noodle bowl.

Fan Qinghui watched from the side, and her eyebrows frowned slightly. Although she was fighting at home in Chunfeng Building, she knew very well in her heart that Yipinju was ambitious and had been regarded as a public enemy by the entire North China catering industry. Looking at his eating appearance, it is difficult to say that it is not the result of deliberately cooking skills to raise the stone.

Next it was Van Taohua's turn. The hot peach blossom cake was served, and Wang Tiejun sniffed a few times as if he was drunk, but he refused to move his chopsticks. Li Le and Fan Qinghui looked at each other intently, only to see him hesitate again and again, and finally sighed and muttered to himself: "Burning the qin and boiling the crane, destroying the heavens, such a delicate and fragrant pastry, it is a sin to put it in the mouth." "Pick up a piece, slowly put it in your mouth, bite a small petal lightly, and chew it slowly between your teeth.

After a long time, he finally sighed: "The taste is excellent, and the fragrance between the teeth is really the ultimate work of white case pastry." ”

It seems that the winner has been decided!

A look of disappointment appeared on the stone's face, and Fan Taohua looked as expected.

Wang Tiejun slowly pushed the peach blossom cake away, but brought the bowl of mutton steamed buns back to his eyes, and took a sip of the soup. He sighed again, "This is the delicacy that worldly people can enjoy regularly." ”

Li Le and Fan Qinghui almost said in unison: "Which one does Master Wang think has won?" ”

Wang Tiejun looked left and right, and said slowly: "If you evaluate the skills of the two of them, this peach blossom cake made by Master Fan of Yipinju is really much better. ”

He still has words in his words. Fan Qinghui and Li Le didn't speak, and listened to him continue: "But, we are all in this business, the way of cooking pays attention to taste, meaning, color, and shape, and the ultimate goal is to arouse people's appetite and make people eat well, so I think that this evaluation is high or low, and the taste is the first." ”

He paused, turned his head to look at Fan Taohua, and continued: "Master Fan of Yipinju, the white case method is really amazing, I have been in this industry for forty years, and I have only seen one or two teachers who can be compared, but the peach blossom cake you made is really exquisite, it is almost a work of art, and it makes people think of the poem of the pink peach blossom at first sight, and the appetite is turned into elegant bones, where can I bear to eat it." ”

"And the little junior brother of Taihang Tower." He turned his gaze to the stone, and continued: "This bowl of mutton steamed buns you made, whether it is the appearance or the method of making zuò, is not enough to compare with Master Fan, but only this taste seems to be better than it. ”

On the one hand, it is better in craftsmanship and appearance, and on the other hand, it is only better in terms of taste. How is this decided?
