The two exchanged two pleasantries, and then sat down separately.

After taking the seat, Ye Yu looked at the four scribes opposite, so he bowed his hand and said humbly: "Shizi, these four have good temperaments, I don't know if they are ......."

"Hehe, Lord Ye is really a good eye, these four are not only Zhao's mentors, but also good friends who are usually personal friends, come and come, why don't you come and see Lord Ye soon?"

"In Xia Shaoxing Mei Xuechen, I have seen Master Ye!" The middle-aged man, who was slightly chubby, took the lead in giving Ye Yu a salute.

Immediately after, the tall scribe on the side also arched his hand and said: "In Zhouchang, Xiayizhou, I have seen Master Ye!" ”

"Zhang Hong ...... in Xiawenzhou"

"He Yong, a local Fuzhou, has seen Master Ye!"

The four of them reported their homes respectively, but Ye Yu chuckled in his heart, and said that these four people are not small, and it has long been rumored in Shilin that there are four uniques in eastern Zhejiang, and eating, drinking, and having fun are played by these four people.

These four people are all extremely wealthy, and their pursuit of eating, drinking and having fun is far beyond what people can compare.

Ye Yu sighed slightly in his heart, whether it was a blessing or a curse or a curse, he couldn't avoid it, since he came, why worry about it, so he smiled: "It turned out to be the famous Four Uniques of Eastern Zhejiang, but Ye Mou was clumsy!" ”

The four of them didn't speak, and Zhao Yi had already opened his mouth and said modestly: "Brother Ye's words are wrong, before you become famous in the world, they may still have some fame." Now that you are here, they are but the light of fire, how can they compare with you, the stars and the moon? ”

"Hey, the son of the world is too famous, Ye just read a few more books......"

"Master Ye, the four of us heard that the prince invited you, so I specially came to ask you for advice, I wonder if Master Ye can give you a lecture?" Ye Yu's words were not finished, and Mei Xuechen, who was the leader of the four, took the lead in speaking.

"This ......"

Ye Yu's face was embarrassed, he didn't know how to respond, hesitated for a moment, and then responded: "I have a specialization in the art industry I have heard, Ye Mou only has a lot of experience in academics, but for other hobbies, he is like a blind man, how dare he say anything to advise?" ”

"Brother Ye, what you said is wrong again, when today no one knows that you are an all-rounder? Back then, the capital was one against eight, and it was even more impressed by the heavenly scholars, why should you be too humble at this moment? ”

"But ......"

Ye Yu wanted to say that he was not good at eating, drinking, and having fun, but he didn't say anything because he knew that what he said was useless.

"It is an honor for the four of us to be here, so we have specially prepared a delicious meal and invited Master Ye to taste it!" Mei Xuechen clapped his hands as he spoke, and then the maidservants walked in with a jade plate.

When this jade plate was placed on the table, Ye Yu found that it was a plate of fried bamboo shoots, the bamboo shoots were crystal white, revealing a slight aroma, and this color and fragrance alone showed that this dish was not bad.

"Oh, although it is vulgar to say that there is no bamboo forest, but this plate of bamboo shoots, Brother Mei, isn't it too shabby for you to entertain Xiao Wang's friends like this?" Zhao Yi sang a double reed at this moment.

Mei Xuechen smiled, and then bowed his hand: "Hehe, the prince doesn't know, bamboo, is a noble and elegant thing, so entertaining Master Ye with bamboo shoots can better reflect Mei's respect!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly and changed his tone: "A noble gentleman can naturally taste the deliciousness, but if he is a vassal and elegant, he will naturally not be able to taste the wonderful......"

"Oh? It turns out that this bamboo shoot still has such a meaning, so with a celebrity like Brother Ye, he will definitely be able to taste the deliciousness of it, which can be said to complement each other! Come on, come on, Brother Ye might as well try it! ”

Listening to the duet between the two of them, although Ye Yu did not speak, he secretly scolded the two of them countless times in his heart. At the beginning, I said the words to the front, how can I taste this dish of yours?

But at the moment of this enthusiasm, he Ye Yu couldn't thin Zhao Yi's face, so he smiled awkwardly: "Then Ye Mou is better to be respectful than to obey his fate!" ”

As he spoke, he picked up the bamboo shoot and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, although the bamboo shoot was extremely soft and delicious, but Ye Yu didn't put his mind on it, because he was thinking about how to deal with it next.

"Master Ye, do you know the origin of this dish?"

"This ......"

Although Ye Yu has a lot of experience in this delicacy, and he has also eaten a lot of palace imperial meals over the years, he really doesn't know what the name of this bamboo shoot is, but if he can't tell the source, he will really be trapped by Mei Xuechen's previous sleeve.

However, when Ye Yu raised his head slightly, he was suddenly stunned, then hesitated for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "The so-called planting bamboo has no time, it will move when it rains, stay in the soil more, and remember the southern branch!" ”

"People who know how to eat Jiangnan bamboo shoots, as Brother Mei said, are by no means idle people, this dish is called Twelve Fast Horses, I don't know if what Ye said is right?"

Ye Yu said this, but Mei Xuechen's expression was shocked, and then he asked with a solemn expression: "Where does this name come from?" ”

"Huh! Eat bamboo shoots to be fresh and tender, this kind of bamboo shoots after the rain, growing in the deep mountains of the south of the Yangtze River, there are bamboo tree roots sprouting overnight, to the dawn just grow into the most tender bamboo shoots, a late will be old, so before dark, the bamboo tree with roots and mud dug up, temporarily planted in a pot......"

"Then with twelve fast horses, one after another, day and night, drenching water along the way, keeping the bamboo shoots growing on the way, just before dawn, picking the fresh bamboo shoots that have grown, and cooking such delicious!"

What Ye Yu said was the Tao, which made everyone present amazed, especially Mei Xuechen, who was even more silent.

"Brother Mei is so gracious, it is really an honor to treat Ye with such a famous dish!"

"Uh...... Hehe, Master Ye is really knowledgeable, and he can even know such unborn famous dishes so thoroughly, it seems that Mei is too arrogant......"

Ye Yu waved his hand and chuckled: "Brother Mei is known as the emperor's tongue, you have tasted all the delicious food from the north and south of the river, and Ye just happened to know this dish!" ”

"Brother Ye is really a noble and elegant person, today has opened Zhao's eyes, come, Zhao will give Brother Ye a drink!" Zhao Yi saw that the first level failed to stump Ye Yu, although he was extremely unhappy in his heart, he still had a smile on his face.

The moment Zhao Yi raised his glass, Yizhou Zhou Chang on the opposite side already understood that it was his turn to play.

Therefore, after Zhao Yi finished toasting, Zhou Chang saluted and said: "Master Ye, how can there be no soup without the so-called vegetables, Zhou has also prepared a delicious ...... for you here."

Then he motioned to the maid to bring the huge soup cup, and the moment the lid was opened, Ye Yu raised his eyes and saw that it was clean and free of debris, obviously a cup of clear water!

"Bold Zhou Chang, in front of Brother Ye, why are you so tricky and fooling Brother Ye with a glass of clear water?"

Zhao Yi's reprimand was sarcastic in Ye Yu's ears, so he said to himself: "It seems that this cup of clear water is also intriguing......"

At this time, Zhou Chang explained with a smile: "The prince misunderstood Zhou, this is indeed a good tonic soup, this time Zhou is not only offering soup to honor Master Ye, but also like Master Ye to seek advice, what is the name of this soup?" ”

"This ......"

Seeing that Ye Yu's face was embarrassed at the moment, Zhou Chang lightly twisted his three-inch sheep's whiskers, and asked with great interest: "Master Ye has studied both Chinese and Western, and must know the origin of this soup, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain?" ”

"Bold! Brother Ye is a model for my Chaoshilin students, how can he be a person who has nothing to offer? ”

"Zhou's words are inappropriate, since this is the case, Zhou will withdraw this soup, so as not to be too embarrassed by Master Ye......"

Listening to these sarcastic and embarrassing words, Ye Yu smiled heartily and said: "It's okay, since Brother Zhou Chang intends to ask for advice, how can Ye have the truth of not being an adult?" ”

As he spoke, he picked up the soup spoon and scooped half a spoonful of water, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully, and said with a smile: "Okay!" What a solid but unflashy phaseless! ”

"Phaseless!?"

Everyone was shocked, especially Zhou Chang stood up in shock: "How could Master Ye know that this soup is called Wuxiang?" ”

"This clear soup is colorless, colorless, dust-free, and contains the essence of high-quality ingredients without being exposed, so it is called phaseless!"

Ye Yu talked about this, but said with a very playful smile: "Only those local tyrants and nouveau riche, as well as the children of the clan who sit on the empty mountain, will be arrogant and arrogant!" Literati, how can they be so cheesy? ”

"Uh...... Hehe, what Master Ye said is extremely ......"

The four of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. And Zhao Yi was also humiliated by Ye Yu's words, and his face was much gloomy. Obviously, Ye Yu's anti-guest irony made these people a little unable to get off the stage.

In order to save the defeat, Zhou Chang asked again: "Master Ye, this is easy to say, so what?" ”

"Hahaha, this clear soup is made with 100 black chickens, 100 abalones, 100 taels of shark fins, and scallops...... A total of 100 kinds of high-quality ingredients, three days and three nights of slow boiling into a thick soup......"

"The clouds are clear and the dark flowers are inlaid with yarn, and the delicacies are invisible. This soup is then filtered with dense gauze satin, and after filtering it 100 times, it will be as clear as water without leaving a trace! But it retains the delicious essence of various ingredients! ”

Hiss!

Ye Yu came to the process of making this zuò Wuxiang soup, which really shocked Zhou Chang, he thought that his cup of soup could stump Ye Yu, but he never wanted to be humiliated by it.

This contrast between before and after made everyone present depressed.

Zhao Yi secretly glared at Mei Xuechen and Zhou Chang, and then picked up the wine glass and praised: "Good!" Brother Ye really has a unique vision, which is really admirable! ”

"The prince of the world has a good reputation, such a kind of hospitality really flatters Ye Yu......" Ye Yu finished speaking, his eyes glanced behind the screen intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hey, Brother Ye, don't you know, these four friends of Zhao have repeatedly boasted that they are the four uniques of eastern Zhejiang, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that!"

Ye Yu just smiled lightly at Zhao Yi's words and didn't say much, because if this offends people, it's better to say less!
