Gu Yang and Xiaoguo chatted for a while, and it was gradually empty.

"Let's stay today and have lunch together! There are a few specialty dishes in Zuixiang Building, and they are not bad! Gu Yang said.

"Master, the three sons are about to participate in the meal competition, presumably they have superb cooking skills, and the shoddy wine and food in the drunken country building will be difficult to swallow in their mouths! Why should we be strong? The man in yellow endured it for a long time, and when he heard that he was going to leave Xiaoguo and the three of them for dinner, he couldn't help but sneer.

Gu Yang's face sank, and he shouted: "Zhong Lin is rude to the guests!" ”

The man in yellow named Zhong Lin whispered "yes", but his eyes were still full of anger.

Xiaoguo knew that although what Ming Ze and Nuan'er said was not bad, in the end, it was a good idea to brush each other, and it was unruly.

It's useless to talk too much at the moment, you can only convince the other party with the facts of action!

She smiled slightly and said, "Brother Gu doesn't need to care, what this brother said is not completely unreasonable!" Just now, since my two apprentices are not ashamed to say that this osmanthus cake can be improved, the so-called empty talk is nonsense, so the two of them are responsible for making a perfect osmanthus cake and taste it with us! If you can't do it, you will apologize to you and the insulted pastries! ”

Ming Ze and Nuan'er were taken aback, but they also aroused a competitive spirit in their hearts, and they did not open their mouths to refuse.

Gu Yang hurriedly said: "Brother Ma, they are still children, the so-called fairy words are unscrupulous, why should they be serious?" ”

As soon as Nuan'er heard that she was a child, she immediately quit, pouted and retorted: "I, Hu Nuan'er, am fourteen years old, and I am an adult. Master, if you want to change it, leave it to me and my brother! ”

Ming Ze thought more about it, and he muttered: "Master, it doesn't hurt if we don't know the sky and the earth to change it once, but we don't know his original formula, how can we make some changes on the original basis?" ”

Xiaoguo said confidently: "If you want to know the original formula, why is it difficult? ”

When the men's group in colorful clothes heard this, they thought that she went to the drunken country building to ask for the formula, and they all sneered: "Ma Gongzi is afraid that he will be disappointed, the secret recipe of this osmanthus cake is only known to the shopkeeper of the drunken country building, and even the chef who is in charge of making pastries only knows one or the other, how can you make him hand it over willingly?" ”

Xiaoguo smiled: "When did I say that I asked him for the formula?" Mingze, give me the rest of the pastries! ”

Ming Ze hurriedly handed the jade plate in his hand to her.

Seeing Xiaoguo take a piece and put it in her mouth, frowning and chewing slowly, she took out a few pieces of white paper from her arms, and took out a strange wooden stick, and kept writing and drawing on the paper.

Gu Yang looked forward curiously, and found that there were some incomprehensible circles and dots on it.

The writing of this world has gone through the literary contest a hundred years ago, and the written languages of various places have been assimilated, and the written languages of various countries have been reduced to national characteristics, and only a small number of literati are still guarding them.

Gu Yang was extremely surprised in his heart, but he held back his train of thought without saying anything to interrupt Xiaoguo.

After Xiaoguo put down the pen and paper, Gu Yang asked, "I don't know which country's text Brother Ma wrote?" ”

Xiaoguo's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled awkwardly: "This is my own creation, and I am the only one who knows it." ”

Gu Yang looked at the fonts of different shapes on the paper, and saw that each one looked the same at first glance, but there was a difference between the north and the south, and the more he looked at it all the way, the more surprised he became, and finally bowed deeply to Xiaoguo, and sighed sincerely: "Brother Ma is not only a wizard of singing and dancing, but also familiar with cooking and cooking, and can also develop words on his own. ”

Xiaoguo was weak for a while, and he had to return the courtesy and humbly praise each other.

"Brother Gu, thank you for your hospitality, it's time for me to be the host for lunch today!" Small fruit road.

"Hey~ Brother Ma must not see outside, the so-called distant is a guest, Gu Mou is the host, how can there be a reason for the guest to break the bank?" Gu Yang excused himself.

"Brother Gu, listen to me. Just a meal, who is the guest and who is the guest? Today, we will not distinguish the guest of honor, each showing his strengths, don't the old brothers want to taste the craftsmanship of the younger brother? At the end of Xiao Guo's words, he lowered his voice and smiled slightly.

Gu Yang was really curious about Xiaoguo's cooking skills, and still hesitated: "This-"

"Master, Ma Gongzi's kindness is difficult, you can agree to come down! A few of us also want to try it, this is more delicious food than the dishes of the drunken country building, what is the taste! Zhong Lin, the man in yellow, urged on the side.

The men's troupe in colorful clothes echoed one after another.

"Hey! Master only said to invite you masters, but he didn't say that he invited you together! Nuan'er shouted.

"Nuan'er! Don't make a fuss! Xiao Guo glared at her, and said to the man in colorful clothes, "Please brothers, be sure to enjoy the light and go over together!" ”

Zhong Lin glanced at Nuan'er proudly, pinched his throat, leaned over Xiaoguo slightly, and said, "Ma Gongzi invited like this, I might as well be respectful!" ”

Xiaoguo smiled and bowed slightly.

Nuan'er snorted coldly, turned around, her expression suddenly changed, and she smiled and grabbed Ming Ze's arm and left, and said, "Senior brother, let's make osmanthus cakes!" Don't let those frogs at the bottom of the well see our ability and open our eyes, which will dishonor Master's reputation! ”

"We'll see!" Zhong Lin shouted at their backs with his handkerchief raised.

Xiaoguo and Gu Yang glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"Little brother will go to prepare a meal, and the old brother will rest for a while!" Xiaoguo said goodbye to Gu Yang.

"Ma Gongzi, can I follow the past and see how Hu Gongzi and them make this osmanthus cake?" The man in Tsing Yi interjected.

"Yuan Er, don't be rude! All walks of life have been exclusively established in the world, how can you be allowed to observe and visit? Gu Yang's face changed, and he shouted loudly.

Yuan Er hurriedly knelt down and said, "Yuan Er knows his mistake!" ”

The remaining few people also hurriedly pleaded: "The master is angry." Yuan Er has no intention of stealing art, but he is afraid that some people will take other people's things and pretend to be their own, wouldn't this move insult the national cake and damage the national prestige of the Drum Country? ”

Although this statement is exaggerated, there is some truth in it.

It was a matter of the country's face, Gu Yang's face retreated with anger, and he hesitated a little, but still insisted: "I believe in Brother Ma's character, how could he do something disgraceful at this time?" ”

Zhong Lin said quietly: "This matter is very related, and it is indispensable to guard against people!" ”

Seeing all this in her eyes, comparing her heart to her heart, Xiaoguo could understand their feelings, she had intended to test it, after these months of training, what kind of cooking skills Ming Ze had reached, and then she would order them to try to improve the osmanthus cake.

If this move can be successful, it can be a big help, and it will win some fame for Mingze before the meal competition.

In case of failure, it is also reasonable, and it is expected that Gu Yang and his subordinates will not say it. It can also make Mingze and Nuan'er realize their shortcomings and work harder!

It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone! Xiaoguo can be described as painstaking!

Of course, all these processes are inseparable from the presence of others to testify, and they cannot be seen by outsiders!

Xiaoguo pushed the boat down the river and said: "Your scruples, I understand below!" In this way, I will ask the ancient brother and all the brothers to move and go to the hospital to personally supervise! ”

Gu Yang's cautious thinking was seen through, his face was a little unbearable, and he sneered: "I didn't restrain my subordinates and let them be presumptuous!" Brother Ma don't take it to heart, how can I really do this snooping thing? ”

Xiaoguo said: "Brother Gu is a free and easy person, why care about these secular rules, in Ma's eyes, food should be spread widely and bring happiness to more people!" ”

The deep-rooted rules of the sect made Gu Yang in a dilemma, he shook his head and said, "No, no!" ”

The man in green smiled and said, "I have a way, I can prove the innocence of Ma Gongzi and them, and I don't have to worry about being stolen!" ”

"What's the solution?" Several people asked in unison.

The man in green said, "It's very simple! A few of us stayed in the courtyard and looked out from the doors and windows! In this way, you can see the general process of production, but you can't see the specific details, so you don't have to worry about the secret method being leaked! ”

"Feng Yun, this method is wonderful!" The men's group in colorful clothes praised.

Gu Yang's face was overjoyed, afraid that Xiaoguo would think too much, so he hurriedly put away his joy and asked carefully: "Brother Ma, look?" ”

Xiaoguo said: "Then let's do it!" A few people please come here please! ”

Immediately, Xiaoguo led the way and took Gu Yang and a few people to the rented courtyard.

The three masters and apprentices moved the tables and chairs to the trees in the courtyard, poured tea for a few people, and took out some food such as dried meat and preserved fruits that they had made before as entertainment.

Gu Yang saw a few needle-like plants floating in the tea cup, the tea was golden, the entrance was slightly bitter and swallowed, but the aftertaste was sweet, and his homemade flower tea had a different taste.

Gu Yang prides himself on being a master of the tea ceremony and is well versed in tea affairs, but he can't guess which one this tea belongs to!

Seeing Xiaoguo, he wanted to leave, so he hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Brother Ma, I don't know what this teacup is?" ”

Xiaoguo smiled: "Brother Gu is still used to drinking? This is the little brother picked wild vegetables on the way, stir-fried, called bitter vegetables, also called wormwood. This tea has the ability to clear heat and detoxify, reduce inflammation, brighten the eyes, and disinfect the stomach! ”

Gu Yang took another sip and praised: "Excellent! I never wanted to get rid of the delicate flowers, even the weeds everywhere have such a taste and so many effects! ”

Xiaoguo thought so deeply and said, "It's not! Wild vegetables are not only bitter vegetables, but also other such as dandelions, honeysuckle, mulberry leaves, etc., can also be roasted to make tea, and the taste and effect are different, but they are all good things for strengthening the body! ”

Another brand new door opened in front of him, and Gu Yang was overjoyed and said: "Brother Ma is really well-informed, and when I have time, my younger brother will definitely go to the mountains and fields to explore these inconspicuous wild vegetables!" ”

Gu Yang's biggest advantage is that he can admit his own shortcomings, and quickly accept the other party's point of view with an open mind, so that the person he talks to is in an extremely happy mood!

In the next few decades, Gu Yang will compose and choreograph, and put all his thoughts on turning wild vegetables into treasures, and has achieved great results and is famous all over the world!

In the kitchen, Ming Ze and Nuan'er had already prepared the materials according to Xiaoguo's instructions, and the remaining scarce ingredients, such as osmanthus petals, were handed over to the men's group in colorful clothes to buy.

When everything was ready, Ming Ze and Nuan'er discussed for a while before starting to work.

On the other side, Xiaoguo is cooked in a different pot, boiling a few fresh chicken thighs in one pot, and putting in a pot of sweet potatoes cut into long strips, adding crushed peanuts and soybean flour, and adding half a pot of water to stew.
